A Sydney woman repeatedly said “no” as she was raped in a luxury hotel room by a popular Chinese actor and a producer from his show, a jury has been told.

The film and TV star Yunxiang Gao and the Chinese producer Jing Wang, both 37, have pleaded not guilty to multiple charges of rape and indecent assault following an incident at Sydney’s Shangri-La hotel in March 2018.

Wang is also charged with two additional counts of rape and two additional counts of attempted rape.

The men’s barristers told a New South Wales district court jury on Tuesday all acts in the hotel were consensual.

But, in his opening address, the crown prosecutor Sean Hughes said he expected the woman would tell the jury the men raped her after a wrap party for a Chinese-language TV series.

She’s expected to tell the jury she agreed to go back to Wang’s hotel room to socialise with others but no one else was there. Wang then allegedly tried to kiss her.

“She raised her hands and said ‘no, no, no’,” Hughes told the jury.

The jury is expected to hear Gao entered the room shortly thereafter, spoke briefly to the woman and pushed her onto the bed, the prosecutor said.

After getting herself off the bed, the woman was allegedly grabbed by Gao, who placed her on his lap, undressed her and kissed her.

Hughes said the jury would hear she told Gao: “Don’t do that. I want to go home.”

The two men allegedly proceeded to rape her orally and vaginally despite her repeated vocal objections.

“The complainant said ‘No, I want to go’ and the like,” Hughes said. “The accused must have known and been in no doubt that what they were doing was without her consent.”

Gao’s barrister told the jury the woman was not truthful when she spoke to police. She gave four separate statements in the days after the alleged incident.

“She deliberately kept information from the police,” Murugan Thangaraj SC said. “These are very serious allegations against two men with clean records.”

Thangaraj said anything that did happen in the room was “entirely consensual”. “You will hear Gao is a gentle person and respectful to women.”

Margaret Cunneen SC, representing Wang, said things were not necessarily as they seemed.

“There was no ‘no, no’ and no crying,” she said. “Mr Wang’s case is she was completely free to leave that hotel at any time, just as she was free to leave at any stage during what was a long night out.”

The trial continues.
