Lee Shing-chak, born Lee Siu Tong,[1] is a Hong Kong permanent resident, geomancer, and native of Gaozhou, Guangdong.
Biography
Lee Siu Tong’s father, Lee Fat Man, a renowned geomancer from Gaozhou, Guangdong, fathered him at the age of 60. At 16, his father renamed him "Lee Shing-chak," meaning "to inherit responsibility." Lee Fat Man had three wives and sixteen children. Among them, Lee Shing-chak has one elder brother (former RTHK executive Lee Joi Tong) and one younger brother (Lee Sing Tong).
Coming from three generations of geomancers, Lee studied at Tsuen Wan Baptist Lui Ming Choi Secondary School and graduated from Shatin Methodist College. From the age of 7 or 8, he followed his father in mountain treks and site examinations, and became a practicing feng shui master at 19. Known as the youngest feng shui master in Hong Kong at the time, he is now a well-known metaphysics and feng shui expert.
Dr. Lee Shing-chak has worked in metaphysics for over 30 years. He has published magazines, written columns, books, and appeared on radio, television, and film. He is known for his accurate predictions of global events and enjoys great popularity. He is a recipient of the 15th World Outstanding Chinese Award, attended a doctoral program at Beijing Normal University, and holds the title of senior fellow at the China Zhouyi Research Institute.[2]
He has also served as a metaphysics consultant or spokesperson for well-known companies and has studied “astronomical physical laws” and the Chinese classic I Ching.
Personal life
In 2007, Lee married his girlfriend of 13 years, Tam Pui Lai, with many celebrities attending the wedding banquet. In 2011, Lee announced their divorce.
Later that year, Lee met actress Lau Sin-ting while filming the TV show Hong Kong Mystery Cases. They quickly developed feelings and fell in love. On Lau’s birthday, the second day of Chinese New Year (January 24, 2012), Lee proposed during a yacht party, and she accepted.[3]

Controversies
Doctorate
In 2009, Lee claimed he received a Ph.D. in astrophysics from the astronomy department of Beijing Normal University based on a dissertation in astrology, but the university had no record of such a degree or thesis. Nonetheless, Lee has continued to use the "Dr." title in media and publications.
Racehorse ownership
Since the 2018–2019 season, Lee has been a racehorse owner under the Hong Kong Jockey Club. His horse "Happy From Heart" was trained by Tsui Yu-shek.[5] Lee claimed his horse was faster than champion horse Beauty Generation and requested to install feng shui setups in the stable, which was denied.[6] He was even accused of threatening the trainer over the phone, leading to a potential boycott by other trainers.[7]
