港最大的电视台电视广播有限公司（Television Broadcasts Ltd.，简称TVB，亦称无线电视）发言人周五表示，该电视台总经理陈志云和其他三位公司雇员被香港反贪机构廉政公署拘捕，他们被怀疑与贪污案件有染。这桩案件震惊了香港娱乐界。

TVB周四确认了这些人被逮捕的消息。

其中，总经理陈志云的被捕尤其令香港人感到震惊，因为他是TVB最为公众所熟悉的人物。他经常出现在电视台举办的各种活动，也主持访谈节目《志云饭局》，香港很多一线明星都上他的节目接受访谈。

香港廉政公署新闻官Agnes Lam拒绝在廉政公署发表的声明之外提供更多的置评。但TVB负责外部事务的副主任Tsang Shing-ming说，截至周五早间，五位与此案相关的人士依然被廉政公署扣留。Agnes Lam说这些人没有被立即起诉。

香港《明报》周五报道，案件涉及TVB高层管理人员为其相关人士在外成立的公司提供特别工作机会，让这些公司承办一些在商场和酒店举行的推广活动，并能以优惠价格聘用TVB的演员出席活动。

TVB在香港的免费电视市场占据垄断地位，公司拒绝透露此案的调查情况。


除了陈志云，被逮捕的TVB雇员还包括，TVB市场及营业部业务拓展主管陈永孙、《志云饭局》节目监制钱国伟、演员宁进。

香港本地电视台播出了陈志云在廉政公署职员的陪同下，到TVB总部进行调查的画面。陈志云的手机没有人接听。

TVB说，调查不会影响公司的运转，并说将会全力配合廉政公署的调查。

TVB于1967年由邵逸夫创立，是一家重要的电视剧和综艺节目制作方，很受全球中文观众的欢迎。TVB旗下的“无线艺员培训班”曾经培养了香港多位影视巨星，其中包括周润发、周星驰、和戛纳影帝梁朝伟。


The general manager of Hong Kong's leading broadcaster and three other employees have been arrested by an anti-graft body on suspicion of corruption, a station official said Friday, in a case that has shocked the Chinese territory's entertainment industry.

Television Broadcasts Ltd. confirmed the arrests Thursday.

General Manager Stephen Chan's arrest was especially shocking in Hong Kong because he is the most public face of TVB, appearing at station events and hosting his own interview show that draws the city's top celebrities.

Agnes Lam, an information officer at the anti-graft body, declined to comment beyond the statement, but TVB's deputy controller for external affairs, Tsang Shing-ming, said the five suspects were still being held as of early Friday. Lam said they were not immediately charged.

The Ming Pao Daily News reported Friday the alleged corruption involves TVB executives steering business to companies that stage promotional activities at shopping malls and hotels and offering TVB artists at discounted prices.

Hong Kong's dominant free-to-air broadcaster declined to elaborate on the investigation.

Apart from Chan, the employees include Wilson Chan, head of business development, Wilson Chin, an executive producer, and actor Ning Jin.

Local television footage Thursday showed ICAC agents escorting Chan to TVB's headquarters as part of its investigation. Calls to Chan's mobile phone weren't immediately returned.

TVB said the probe won't affect the company's operations, and added it will fully cooperate with the agency in its investigation.

Founded by former movie mogul Run Run Shaw in 1967, TVB is a major producer of TV dramas and variety shows popular among Chinese speakers around the world. Its performing artist apprenticeship program became an incubator for entertainment talent, serving as an early training ground for movie stars such as Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow and Cannes best actor winner Tony Leung Chiu-wai.
