Today's Blind Items- The Drug Lord
This is the first time this person has ever been a blind. When his name came up, I knew it of course, but I had to think back to the last project I saw him in. I thought it had been longer, but when I look up his filmography I remember the last role I saw him in which was not that long ago in a movie with two A listers. Filmed out of the country. The last couple of movies he has shot have been filmed outside the country. He is foreign born. He tries to spend as little time as possible here in the US. Back in the day he was just about an A list mostly movie actor. Lots and lots of movies to his credit. He also is involved in lots of other entertainment work. He loves to do as much as he can because it gives him a valid reason for flying all over the world to check with his partners and suppliers. He is A+ list in his home country. It is from there that he runs everything. According to a journalist who has investigated him for the past three years, our actor/entertainer is one of the world's largest drug dealers. He also launders hundreds of millions of dollars annually through huge vacation resorts that are springing up in his home country. The resorts, all of which he controls through front companies and builds with construction companies he controls through different names his drug money is shipped home where it is used to purchase condos in these resorts and then flipped to everyday Joe buyers or the drug money is used to invest in the projects. That money invariably is invested with companies that suddenly declare bankruptcy leaving the person who sent the drug money a valid reason why he has nothing to show for his investment. Apparently law enforcement authorities around the world are almost powerless to do anything because anything he does that is remotely illegal he does from his home country. When he travels and meets with partners or suppliers, they simply talk about what investments they should steer their people too. The hope is that one of the people in a country will make a mistake and then can be turned. It is massive operation and the book will probably be a heart stopper.

Jackie Chan
[…] Drug […]
Vincent Cassel
Last Priject- Derailment with Jen Anniston/ Clive Owen
Benicio Del Toro?
Just a guess: Steve Coogan
Last project Dragon Blade with John Cusack and Adrien Brody
Benecio is from Puerto Rico, and therefore American. Vincent Cassel may be A+ in France, but he's never been close to A here. Jackie Chan almost seems too obvious, but there is a lot of development in China.
owns resorts in China
How about Jet Li - was in the Expendables movies? I thought Jackie Chan first too, but nothing on his IMDB shows anything recent with A listers.
Good guess Sandy..could be.
Jackies been in reveals here
Someone from those Expendable movies, Jet Li?
Following up on my Steve Coogan guess.
Recent movie: The Other Guys
Two A-listers: Will Ferrell/ Mark Wahlberg
He has, you are correct.
Resort condos are not popping up all over the UK.
I know. It's probably not him.
I believe his son has was but not him.
I would like it to be him because I already think of him as rather smarmy.
This is a great blind, if it's real.¯\_(ツ)_/¯
+1. China won't extradite their own citizens. Jackie is investing a lot of money in Macau right now.
In 2004, Chan launched his own line of clothing, which bears a Chinese dragon logo and the English word "Jackie", or the initials "JC".[138] Chan also has a number of other branded businesses. His sushi restaurant chain, Jackie's Kitchen, has outlets throughout Hong Kong, as well as seven in South Korea and one in Hawaii, with plans to open another in Las Vegas. Jackie Chan's Cafe has outlets in Beijing, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and the Philippines. Other ventures include Jackie Chan Signature Club gyms (a partnership with California Fitness), and a line of chocolates, cookies and nutritional oatcakes.[139] With each of his businesses, a percentage of the profits goes to various charities, including the Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation.
Chan is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, and has championed charitable works and causes. He has campaigned for conservation, against animal abuse and has promoted disaster relief efforts for floods in mainland China and the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami.[6][140][141]
As well as a music career ...
My first thought was Jackie Chan..but since y'all say he's been in BI's..It must not be him.
August 9, 2007
#1 Despite their appearances together on recent talk shows and their public comments to the contrary, these two actors really don't like each other and what you see in public and what goes on in private are two very different things.
Chris Tucker / Jackie Chan
Jet Li is an interesting name to consider.
Martial artistry is Li's entertainment field and film production too.j
Omar Sharif
That was 8 years ago---probably slipped entys mind. Not like it was some scandalous or memorable blind to begin with. The answer is Jackie---deal with it.
Jackie and some guy named Emil sure do buy a lot of condo's and apartments in China though. hmm...If it's not him,I'm stumped. He fits perfectly.
The easiest way to launder money is through Real Estate -- especially if a business is part of the transaction.
I'll call my therapist.
lol! Well at least it is not someone suggesting I call a therapist...
Jackie's been in blinds before. Wasn't he the concensus for foreign star that had a sex scene with his daughter he doesn't acknowledge? That and Jackie was A at his peak in the US, not "almost A."
I'm backing Sandy with Jet Li. Last movie with A listers being "The Expendables." I believe his scenes were only filmed out of country for that because of his "schedule."
Me 3 ...Jet Li FTW
Agree Sarah...nice one
Ken Watanabe
Yun-Fat Chow as earned the moniker "King of Real Estate
He does not own hotel or resorts.
so obnoxious....
never heard of him but Hi Trainrides~!
I read the blind as saying he owns resorts under fronts and aliases. So somebody that publically owns resorts is probably out. I still vote Li, but Watanabe might be a good guess with Inception as his movie with A listers that people forgot he was in.
Well it doesn't...
Actually probably not Watanabe. Godzilla was more recent, and you have to be crazy to mess with Japanese drug laws.
Never heard of him but at least there is a Real Estate factor in there
"Front companies" and "controls through different names" is pretty clear to me.
Actor Jackie Chan, who owns various properties in Singapore, has made S$3.7 million after selling The 50s entertainment complex in Tanjong Pagar.
According to a report from The Straits Times, Chan sold the building in April for S$12.5 million to a Singaporean friend who runs an investment company.
Having invested some S$8.8 million in the property in 1996, Chan made a profit of S$3.7 million from the transaction.
The report said that Chan had not planned to sell the property but his friend had repeatedly urged him and the actor finally agreed.
Chan is a familiar figure in the real estate market in Singapore, having acquired the former Jinriksha Station at the nearby 1 Neil Road for S$11 million in late 2007.
Recently, he and singer-songwriter Wakin Chau reportedly bought several apartments at the Twin Peaks condominium in Leonie Hill Road.
Chan purchased two one-bedroom units on one of the lower floors of the 35-storey project, while Chau acquired a unit on another floor.
*waves at Derek
been lurking for some time now. Still hasn't gotten used to this new format.
"Apparently law enforcement authorities around the world are almost powerless to do anything because anything he does that is remotely illegal he does from his home country. "
If this is a Chinese or Japanese person, he must be crazy, Jap laws are harsh, and Chink president Li wanna pick some famous person in order to show his plebeians who has the power as he is running out of famous corrupt generals and mayors.
Agree to disagree on which one, but this is definitely one of the Hong Kong martial arts actors.
Good luck to whoever it is....adleast the money's being used for real estate instead of guns and war....Adults like to take drugs and that isn't going to change so crack on, just don't take crack.
What exactly is obnoxious about agreeing with another's guess over an incorrect one( as stated, jackie a chain has been the subject of many blinds.)obnoxious is trolling people under various names because you are mental and needy....princesschowmein/ginger haired pig balls /cowardly lion/ so now and so forth lol.
But , if you feel better- Chan was an obvious, and decent guess:) so there's that:)
I have never trolled you Tricia---give it up! You just get mad when people guess better than you (so pathetic!). Have a nice evening.
@Crashdiego...I tend to go with with Jet Li, because I do not think he has been in a blind and obviously the person is savvy enough to use aliases(eg can't Google said persons "businesses"/ also, someone once said here - sage words- you can't change the blind or the fact that the person doesn't fit- to fit the answer.......:) if I reckon
Play nice peeps! We can all make a guess cadan in it's heyday was all sorts of fun until someone decided they were lord and master and we were the serfs to be banished! Not again no siree, be nice or leave!
ha!(don't bother luv- YOU'RE fine.)
oh good god
I normally don't address people I disdain but keep the facts the facts-you were caught trolling me when you answered to Derek under an alter..one of several while you were trying to attempt to regain a place at CDAN after you trashed it-in a typical attack that you make on people that are quicker or perhaps just nicer by nature than you and live a fuller life(or female:) those who choose to look the other way, please ignore ( I would if I could- it's afriggin gossip site , but he deserves it) or are just new- I hope they are astute enough to know who you are....and BTW Jackie Chan is no more the answer to this than a kyle MacLachlan was the answer to yesterday's blind for the 57 year old married tv actor whose been married 15 years - aaaaasss the B- film mostly film actor actor pleasuring himself on camera. PS arnett wound up in DM:)
Now you have a good session- I mean night as well.
*meant for you The Dude 78
I don't speak jibber-jabber. So pathetic .
Would you care to roll tape son?
What planet exists , certainly online- where people don't know what a masogynistic, BI polar , nasty lil f*** you are? I'd like to go--- must be nice:)
While I think the sentiment is lovely, that is not me. I mean, it's not a bad facsimile, but a little Flanders-ish, amirite? Thanks for the heads up, I haven't been reading lately and I would have HATED to miss a chance to meet myself!
It is MISOGYNIST for the 10th time. You spelled it wrong when you were trolling last week as well. Good grief.
That's not TTM by the way...she is far more eloquent and isn't on this site.
So Derek takes on a 10th screenName...?
That's not TTM by the way...she is far more eloquent and isn't on this site.
Oh no not TAlks too much AGAIN. You claim you haven't been reading yet here you are to fight with Derek quell surprise!!
Face it you live for stirring shit up especially with Derek for some odd reason
No , someone else might of...perhaps you trolling you (which you do).. Ya know creating conversations..... I Tricia, may have missed a vowel- but not not the definition . Funny of yiu you to mention last weeks comments- I no longer see recent comments which I stated 1 month ago, so I dont go back, but I guess if you post all the time under different names- you kinda have to??
awww... memories, this reminds me of the epic fights of cdan
Funny @it Took Forever...should actually serve to remind you -and everyone, of how this didn't happen when Derek was absent from this site (and pre - aliasessssss' ,of course).Just a thought.
Who are you to determine what makes an "eloquent" poster? Half your posts are unreadable...lol...
and you are becoming unbearable. Paranoid and strange. Go take care of your kid...
Um, my " kid" is more of an evolved human being at 15 months than you will be, son.
I find it hilarious you think people don't possess the memories of your epic- and numerous breakdowns on multiple sites? Did you think no one has Total Recall, or maybe just maybe everyone got the a derek roofie and forgets your utter vulgarity and venom?
Ummkay
New Theory: Jean Reno?
You will *ever be*, assuming at 30 something you may catch up to a toddler in maturity, someday....
Multiple sites? You keep saying that but it is not true. I feel bad for your family. Constantly wasting your days, making up lies and arguing with people on the internet that do not give two shits about you. Very sad.
and I am 30----not an old bitter betty like you---now please stop blowing up my email---it is depressing more than anything.
You just blew my mind and I hope it's not true!
And......scene.
Who have I lied about? The actual people I've known/ known? As I've said...I haven't said half of what I can here- too smart and saving it for my own venture...but you should start a blog ...call it " Bell Hop Blues" maybe?
I do love me a Jean Reno as well....good guess!
He and Cassel have lotsa stories trust:))))
The only person online ,or otherwise in all my years who has ever demonstrated and / or orchestrated a negative and veeeery personal interest / attack on my life -is you... Derek Harvey..., Or will you formally go by Athena soon on this site I presume?
As I thought.
Spineless effin turd.
I cannot see this being someone from China. It has to be a country where this could be done and not be detected. The Communist Party knows everything.
Hegg, communist party bosses are easily bought off. If he's operating out of Hong Kong, it's even easier. But going to Singapore, where the penalty for drug dealing is death, I can't imagine anyone taking the risk.
[…] Source en source. […]
Jackie Chan is very supportive of the Communist Party in China, though one wonders if this is him what was behind his son's marijuana arrest and recent short incarceration.
Zip it Tricia. And seriously, you should be watching that poor kid you popped out. How embarrassing for her, stuck with a drinker for a mom who gets arrested for bar fights and public intoxication. 'Member your mugshots that were posted on here? Smeared mascara and all lol!!!! The Internet never forgets that stuff Trish, even though you would love to forget how messy your life is! ???
