Jones Lee, born Lee Kwong Chung, previously known as Lee Chung Hei, is a Hong Kong male actor and singer. He is currently focused on business ventures and rarely appears in front of the camera.
Background
Lee's father passed away from heart disease when he was seven years old[1]. He grew up in Sun Man House, Oi Man Estate, and studied at Sun Fat College from kindergarten to Form 3, later graduating from another secondary school. He became an assistant to his cousin, musician and Taichi Band member Gary Tong, for five years[2]. With his cousin’s encouragement, he learned singing techniques and was introduced to the music industry.
In 1996, he joined Sony Music (Hong Kong) and released his debut album *Too Concerned*, winning the Bronze Award for Best New Male Singer at Commercial Radio’s Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation. However, he did not release further albums, and his music career stalled.
In 1999, he changed his stage name to “Lee Chung Hei”, joined the TVB Artiste Training Class, and became a contracted TVB actor. He performed in various TV dramas including *Legal Entanglement*, *Only You*, *Yes, Sir. Sorry, Sir!*, and *Three Kingdoms RPG*. In 2012, he joined HKTV, with notable performances in *The Election* and *The Wicked League*.
He returned to TVB in June 2014 under a basic artiste contract.
In May 2018, he appeared on TVB music show *Cantopop at 50*, performing his debut song *Too Concerned*[3].
He left TVB again in June 2020[4]. He currently runs a hotpot restaurant and owns a bar called "Sky21" since 2009[5].
