3D holographic projection company Digital Domain has struck a 10-year joint venture with TNT Production to hold hologram performances of late celebrated Asian singing star Deng Lijun, or Teresa Teng, who passed away 20 years ago.

The two companies will build on the previous hologram of Teng that sang virtually alongside Mandopop superstar Jay Chou during his 2013 concerts in Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Digital Domain CEO Daniel Seah says the company is developing Teng's new hologram with the same team that worked closely with the singer's foundation to "bring the singer's personality and spirit to her performances in 2013."

TNT, which represents Teng's estate, plans to use the singer's likeness for concerts, albums, movies and advertising.

Celebrated throughout East and Southeast Asia, Teng was widely mourned when she passed away from an asthma attack in 1995 while vacationing in Thailand.
