The Hong Kong-based Digital Domain Holdings has agreed to buy an 85 per cent stake in actor Nicholas Tse's Lucrative Skill, the parent company of his loss-making Post Production Office, for HK$135 million (S$24.8 million), say Hong Kong reports. It is paying HK$40 million for Tse's 25 per cent stake and HK$95 million for See Corporation's 60 per cent stake, which the star had sold for HK$123 million in 2014. Digital Domain Holdings says it will expand its virtual reality business in China with the help of Tse, who will still hold a 15 per cent stake in Lucrative and is No.3 on the Forbes China Celebrity List.
