Jerry creates his own clan
Builds his own group, but very hard to break it up with old boss

Jerry Yan creates his own company and will manage his own work.
Jerry Yan did not continue his contract with Fu Long as it ended last July, he created his own group Star Jerry (Yan Cheng Xu Entertainment Work Group) and will start his official fan club, the future [Principal who will ring the bell]. The manager of Aaron Kwok will temporarily manage JERRY yan and said: “He is really the boss.” His former manager Ke Fu Hong doesn’t like to express anything about his future work, but both sides still have commercials and contracts that has to be finished. It has to delay until next year.
A Few days back, Jerry Yan went to Malaysia to attend the Oral B event, beside him is his Fu Long assistant, the staffs he was with were carrying [Jerry Yan Entertainment Work Group] badges, those badges were printed before leaving, in this trip the one who is in charge of his media exposure is IRENE but didn’t admit that she’s involved in this company, it’s because his English is poor, so she is to help him work out with foreign cases.
Jerry is a Xi MiaoJi (dunno what it means), in asia alone his market for commercial is 1 million , if one helps him get a few more commercials then one can relax and gain more money, this kind of good fortune of course many managers would want to grab him, but he also has his own perspective in this entertainment circle, after his contract with his previous manager he created his own clan. Not just this, Media Asia Company’s boss Lin Jian Yue had a chance to work with him in , he really liked him, but he never admitted he is going to manage for Jerry.
Liu Wei Zi will take care of future contracts
As of now he has favored Liu Wei Zi to take care of his future contracts, she says: “In the future after he has been released and become free, he will create his own fan club, then open his own company , everything will wait until the end of the year’s contract finishes.” She didn’t admit if she will be helping him in the future as a friend, in a way, there shall be a no pressure no contract basis of managing relationship.
Jerry’s old contract is with Angie Cai, but she transferred it to Ke Fu Hong’s Company Fu Long and took over, that is why whatever he is earning, it is always divided int two before it enters his pocket, will he continue his contract? Angie Cai said: “This will be Fu Long’s decision, Zaizai has continued his Fu Long contract last year. Fu Long has to help Jerry with some of the contracted commercials and TV series until next year, in these times he has to be under his old managing company.”
Acting Manager Zhi Xiang Li said: “He has built his own company, deciding for himself in this business, this suites him better, but in the future there will always be a team up, early next year F4 will release their new album and there’s also the concert.” But Fu Long and Jerry Yan’s relationship is still good, When Lin Zhi Ling had an accident last July she even accompanied him to Da Lian to visit her.
so kelangan talaga banggitin na pumunta siya ng DA LIAN, pambawi ng Fu Long kasi iniwan na sila ni Jerry sa ere... pocha talaga... sarap sabi ko na nga ba may catch kung bakit ayaw muna nila i-expose na si jerry yung pumunta ng da lian eh, panama nila kay jerry in case natuloy tong company niya... grabe... kiakia ako bigla sa ginawa ni jerry... anyways... good news naman eh!
TAKE NOTE: DI AKO NAG TRANSLATE NG LAST SENTENCE. YUN LANG.
F3 do not know Baolong has walked out on them
Posted: November 2, 2005
Nov. 2, 2005, Liberty Times of Taiwan
Yan Chengxu has chosen to fly solo and be his own boss. F3 not only know nothing about it but also has to guard against the situation of "three controlled by one" in the future. F3 has many projects planned for next year, but if boss Yan asks too high of a price, the upcoming F4's 3rd album and a world tour consisting of dozens of concerts for F4's 5th anniversary might end up falling through.
The eldest walks out and become one controlling three
Because the eldest of F4 has gone away by himself, where will F3 who are separated suddenly go? Will they reunite with Yan Chengxu to be F4? It will all depend on if Yan Chengxu alone is satisfied with the mode and price that the two sides collaborate.
In other words, by flying solo, Yan Chengxu has established his position as one controlling three; it proves that he has a vision in making the move.
Judging by the fact that F3's agency, Fulong, didn't know for sure until 1 or 2 weeks ago that Yan Chengxu, whose contract expired around July and August, had already started making his own contacts with vendor corporations, F3 most likely do not know of Yan Chengxu's latest move.
Next year, all are fully loaded
But Fulong reveals that F3 has many projects planned for next year, mainly CDs. Each of them will be extremely busy.
According to plans, Zhou Yumin (Zaizai) who is currently filming 'Silence' will release his 3rd album and his movie is still under negotiation. Wu Jianhao, who was promoting 'Dragon Squad' in Hong Kong yesterday, has two TV series under negotiation, besides CDs and movies.
Besides CDs and TV series, Ken Zhou, who has just finished 'The Far East International Trial,' will continue filming movies in China next year. As for Yan Chengxu, Fulong doesn't know of his plans next year. But previously they were engaging in talks of releasing F4's 3rd album and holding a world tour consisting of dozens of concerts for F4's 5th anniversary.
Performances: fair as individuals
In other words, by flying solo, Yan Chengxu can either advance to attack or retreat to defend. He not only can fight alone but also plays the key role in determining whether F4 can pick up and continue their former relation. He has already started learning paying salaries. In case he unilaterally decides that the price, schedule, or terms don't work for him, F4 won't see the light of day.
In the past, when F4 work individually, their respective performances were just fair. But if they combine, their power was so strong that it swept across the whole South-East Asia. A few months ago, the photo book that they shot together blew the Japanese females away. In the future, F3 are bound to have to strengthen their individual ammunition. Striking in Twos will be the latest mode of collaboration.
F4 always combat most effectively when they unite. Missing the eldest Yan Chengxu (right), it remains to see whether the remaining F3, Wu Jianhao (left), Zhou Yumin, and Zhu Xiaotian can still exert great money-drawing power.

my comment:
ansakit naman ng balitang to parang si jerry pa nang-iwan sa apat bigla, feeling ko alam naman nung tatlo eh, chaka sobrang controlling ng fulong kaya nasasakal na rin si jerry, and to think that he's the one who spoke for the four of them noong sobrang pagod at puyat na nila sa concerts and other projects noong 2002. It only means that jerry has the guts to leave the entertainment circle or make it on his own basta he exerts effort in whatever he does.
Basta wish ko lang wag lang gawan ng issue ng fu long to coz with these reports, i think they're already starting to attack jerry... and i think this will be a helluva month for the yanyans...
kapit lang, walang bibitaw. I support jerry in whatever he decides, coz i know it's for his own good. One example is ORAL B MALAYSIA, di nyo ba napansin na napaka lenient ng event? nakakalapit siya sa fans? Tapos nakapunta pa siya sa hospital? Well, tapos di ko makita si fenny anywhere in front of the cam except sa airport, tapos nasa likod lang siya ni jerry, so i was wondering...
and my wondering gave me an answer today...
basta i support f4, but i definitely support jerry more!

My comment:
In 2001, F4 were also under two management, when Jerry, Vic, and Vanness were under Comic and Ken was under FL. This situation didn't impact the work planning of F4's projects then, and I don't think it will impact F4's projects next year, like the F4 concerts and F4 album.
During Pepsi 923, Jerry clearly told the press that Vanness and he were thinking something new to surprise the fans in the upcoming F4 concerts. In the press conference in Malaysia, Jerry also mentioned that he was practising a new skill for the upcoming F4 concerts.
Abandon F3? I don't think so. F4 was not meant to be a group forever from the beginning. Now it is just for Jerry to have more freedom (especially away from the control of AC) and control of his own business. Like Xiao Zhi said, the relationship of FL and Jerry is fine, except that it is impossible for FL to send 5 or 6 people especially for Jerry's careen planning only, as FL is a big company and it has too many artists to take care of. Once Jerry said that he envied Jay Chou's company a lot, as he had control of what he wanted to do, like something new. Jerry sets high standards on his work and he is full of ideas. However, he could not do much in the past as FL/Comic has a lot of rules when managing their artists. Now Jerry can have the control to try out his ideas. I am sure now Jerry will face less office politics and his team can have more flexibility when dealing with the press, sponsers, and fans.
According to news, as AC gave F4's career management right to FL, Jerry won't get his money until after AC and FL get their shares.
According to news, the Oral B Malaysia tour was its first project and I am very happy with the outcome that even the press in HK and TW reported about the tour, when compared to before, no one in Tw or HK knew what F4 did in foreign countries.
Anyway, if there are good projects, I am sure F4 will work together again, but by looking at the schedule, it is not fair to put the burden/responsiblities on Jerry, as F3's schedules are full of their individual projects as well next year.

mei cuo mei cuo! swak tong si kkla!
si mian chu ge ang dating ng jerry natin!!
(referring to jay's new song about the paparazzi, how they always pry on him in everything he does)
basta mga sis, kapit lang! there's more to come but i think jerry can manage it naman kaya niya siguro nilabas na rin yung company na yon nung oral b malaysia... he knows he has to face fulong kahit anong mangyari, so i think he's more than prepared than we expected...
basta alam ko di niya iiwan f4, he loves f3, it shows how he miss them during the 2 pepsi events... basta i know the 3 are well informed, kasi di naman nangiiwan ng colleague yang si jerry eh... basta... matakot nalang tayo pag mismong fulong ang ayaw magcooperate sa company ni jerry for f4 to be together again in other projects.
pero as the news said nga, naka-sign pa rin si jerry sa 3rd album and f4 concert next year so no need to worry, after nung mga yon dun na tayo mamroblema, but i'm keepin my fingers crossed na sana i-consider ng fulong as healthy competition ang pag-alis ni jerry.
f4,
star jerry,
jerry yan
