The Last Nicholas Tse on carrier
Adjust font size: Bookmark and Share

Nicholas Tse's new persona is a soldier who lands a chopper on an aircraft carrier, taking center stage there.

That was the scene on Tuesday when Hong Kong singer and actor Nicholas Tse promoted his new digital album, "The Last of Nicholas Tse", on the deck of a former Soviet carrier inside Shenzhen's Minsk World military theme park.

Film producer and actor Patrick Tse, who collaborated with his son in a music video for the album, was on the scene to show his support.

Nicholas Tse's military appearance echoed a "fighting" theme of his album, according to the star. "Life is full of battles and you have to fight," Tse was quoted as saying in an earlier interview.

Tse has been through an embarrassing scandal since February last year, when a group of photos emerged on the Internet showing intimate pictures of his actress wife Cecilia Cheung with Edison Chen, another local pop star.

"The Last of Nicholas Tse" was released last week, almost four years after Tse's previous album "Release".

Although the name of the new album has aroused wide suspicion that Tse is ending his music career, he didn't affirm that "The Last" will actually be the last. Instead, he said his focus in the near future would be on acting.

Tse is currently working with director Teddy Chen in the star-studded action thriller "Bodyguards and Assassins". According to a report on Sina.com.cn, he has also been confirmed to star in an upcoming sequel to the award-winning film "The Beast Stalker".
