Qi is the founder of Sparkle Roll Holdings Group, which mainly engages in acting as an agent of the world’s top luxury vehicle brands. His company became the sole mainland agent of Bentley, Rolls-Royce, and Lamborghini. It is also the exclusive agent of the brand of Jackie Chan.
In 2010, Sparkle Roll Holdings Group cooperated with Chan to establish the Jackie Chan Lai Yiu International Studios, which operates 36 branches in the mainland. At the same time, Sparkle Roll engages in the production of Moutai Jackie Chan Liquor and other goods in the mainland.
Qi Zhenkang, the eldest son of Qi Jianhong, is Jackie Chan’s assistant planning director in China.
There is actually nothing wrong for Jackie Chan to maintain offshore investments and financial interests as any sound businessman or investor would do. What the Panama Papers are trying to say with their expose is why these offshore companies are not being declared in the spirit of transparency.
In addition, it is also fuelled by the idea of having the proper amount of taxes levied on the business ventures and investments by the rightful government entity. It is common knowledge that undeclared offshore companies in the world are being used by certain elements as fronts to bankroll terrorist activities often times.
