PARIS, NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AMTD Group Inc. ("AMTD" or the "Group"), alongside The Generation Essentials Group (NYSE: TGE), a subsidiary of the Group under AMTD Digital (NYSE: HKD), jointly announced the launch of two L'Officiel heavyweight covers to signify both its global presence and demonstrate influences across key markets worldwide.

The June Issue of L'Officiel Paris, China, and HKSAR features the beloved Chinese actress Tang Yan (Tiffany). In 2024, she garnered widespread acclaim for her portrayal of "Miss Wang," the leading female character in "Blossoms Shanghai" directed by world renowned director and producer Wong Kar-wai. "Blossoms Shanghai" is one of the most popular Chinese TV series in recent years, achieving an impressive 1.582 billion effective views. This TV series was the biggest winner at the 29th Shanghai TV Festival Magnolia Awards, securing five awards including Best TV Series (China), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor in a Leading Role (Hu Ge), Best Cinematography, and Best Art Direction. The series further garnered recognition at major industry festivals, receiving accolades from the 10th Wenrong Awards, the 32nd China TV Golden Eagle Award, and the 34th China TV Drama Flying Apsaras Award. Tang Yan's exceptional acting and outstanding performance in this series also earned her nominations for Best Actress at The Magnolia Awards, Flying Apsaras Award, and China TV Golden Eagle Award. Recently, Tang Yan revealed her journey in the latest triple-country June issue of L'Officiel, following her return to television as Ji Tan Yin in the popular new drama "A Moment but Forever", which marked her first costume drama after a five-year hiatus.

The Summertime Issue of L'Officiel Hommes Italia features Rafael Leão, one of the most explosive wingers in the global football scene. Renowned for his exceptional technique and blistering speed, Rafael played a key role in AC Milan's 2022 Serie A title victory, which has earned him the MVP award for the 2021–22 season. Beyond football, Rafael is a multifaceted artist and entrepreneur— he has released two albums under the pseudonym WAY 45 and embodies an urban aesthetic through his streetwear brand, Son is Son. Just weeks after leading Portugal to victory in the Nations League, the champion shared his story and perspective in the latest issue of L'Officiel Hommes Italia.
