Chinese actress Zhang Yu, showed more than 20 videotapes of her having sex with famous Chinese directors and actors in return for film/TV roles, chinese media reported. Actress become famous after telling the press that she had videotapes and other evidence to prove that an important director had sex with her friend.
The name of director is Huang Jianzhong and the actress said Huang had hinted many times that he would offer her roles in his TV series if she had sex with him. The actress said she did not want, but because she want not lose an important act in TV series, she asked her friend to be her substitute. The voiceover for the first video, which lasted about two minutes and was posted on the Internet on Saturday, identified the man caught in the sex video clip as Jin Hao, media reports said.
She did say that one tape showed her having sex with Huang. She also showed letters said to be from actors like Wen Haibo promising roles in return for sex.

In 2003 Zhang Yu claimed director Huang Jianzhong has sex with her friend in return for Zhang getting a role and that she had video evidence to back up her claims. Huang and some other directors criticised Zhang for making false accusations. She responded by suing them but the case failed in court earlier this year and the directors were declared innocent.
Huang responded that he did have dinner with Zhang but he was drunk after two bottles of beer and could not remember what had happened that day - report Xinhua agency.
Zhang Yu said, she shot the sex video tape between Jin and an unidentified woman. In the clip, only the private parts were blocked with mosaic marks. Toward the end of the clip, a naked director stood up to grab the video camera while Zhang was heard saying “If you grab it, I’ll shout.” It was not clear how Zhang was able to shoot the video.

On Saturday afternoon Zhang Yu published another sex video tape showing her kissing a bald-headed man whom she identified as an actor from Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region who promised to find her a role but didn’t.
Fu Minrong, a lawyer with a Shanghai-based law firm, told Xinmin Evening News that despite Zhang’s stated whistle-blowing purpose in releasing the video tapes, it was illegal to spread such pornographic scenes online.

Zhang Yu took her campaign to the Internet by releasing two video statements, including excerpts from the tapes. She says that publishing the videos online is a response to critics who say that her accusations and the tapes are just a way for to hype herself. This online video response is of course just another way for to hype herself. And Internet companies are cashing in on the action too.
Video sharing website Yoqoo is also enjoying the fuss. Zhang videos — two of them so far — are on a Yoqoo page. Note that Yoqoo have superimposed a second Yoqoo logo over the video, just to make sure that everyone knows the original source of the video no matter where it’s reproduced.
The naked scenes in the video have the naughty bits pixellated, but it remains sordid. According to Yoqoo’s own stats, this video had been viewed almost three million times at the time of writing.

Zhang Yu also has a blog on Sina. She agreed to the sex in exchange for the parts, and in so far as I gather, she got them. She was not forced, she even pimped out one of her friends! I doubt she would be making such rackus if she became popular. In the end she is just crying sour grapes. You can’t take the moral high ground if you don’t have morals yourself.

Last week actress Zhang Yu showed video tapes of her and a friend having sex with famous Chinese directors and producers, which she submitted as proof of her assertions that sex-for-roles is the standard hiring procdure in the industry

Subsequent to that story, Zhang Yu was interviewed by a reporter from Southern Weekend. ESWN has translated the article.
Excerpt:

Zhang Yu: I will use open shamelessness against hidden shamelessness

Q: What is your purpose for disclosing these videotapes now?

A: I want to show everybody just how far these people have gone. If I did not show these videotapes, everybody is going to say that I am just hyping it up or playing games. But after I produce the ironclad evidence, everybody now thinks that I am being vicious and striking low blows in order to get something...

...Q: In your Open Letter to the People of China, you questioned the equality of men and women. "Could it be that women must be virtuous and gentle, and submit themselves to all the unfair 'criticisms' and 'opinions'?" Do you feel that the world is demanding too much from women?

A: It is just so unfair. If I can be restrained, then so must you. That is why I will not accept it. I am someone who was robbed, and you are the robber. As the victim, I have to keep my mouth shut. As the robber, you don't have to do that ... right? Instead, you declare that you would be stupid not to take advantage and besides, you have to nothing to lose...

...Yes, reality has given me a very good lesson. There will never be a man that I can trust in this society.
