Chinese actor, Gao Yunxiang (高雲翔), was charged with sexual assault in Sydney, Australia back in March this year.  In addition to Gao, the victim has alleged there was another perpetrator involved in the abuse, Chinese national Wang Jing (王晶), a producer on the film.  He is not to be mistaken with the Hong Kong Category III director, Wong Jing (王晶).
