Translation Has WeiZheMing propelled to become a breakout artist? Most definitely. He is now highly sought by executive producers, producers and directors. He has a unique position where in the past few years, took on lead roles as well as second lead, both with great success. Although his leads roles are not of high budget productions, they are very well received. Similarly, in high production drama, his second lead roles drew high level of attention. He commands a very high market appeal and drawing power relative to his fee. In addition, he has maintained an exemplary and healthy image throughout his career. He is not too involved in reality shows except Call Me By Fire, hence maintained a degree of elusive charm. If he continues his journey the way he does now, he will hold position in the entertainment world for a long time.
Translation (DeepSeek) Today I want to reintroduce myself to everyone. Besides working on Xiaohongshu, my main profession is actually as a director. So, I shoot commercials, and filmed many celebrities and met a lot of them in person. It was the first time after meeting one in real life that I thought, "Wow, this actor is so handsome and amazing—who is he?" Recently, there’s been a lot of buzz about him as the ideal husband. Let’s take a look at the commercial we shot earlier this year. At the time, he was still endorsing Aolai Sanshao.
I’ve filmed so many celebrities, but I only recommend him to everyone. Why? Because on set, he was truly polite, gentle, and professional. Sure, some artists may be difficult, but sometimes it’s because of their team, not necessarily themselves. Teacher Wei was really dedicated on set. During filming, the director might need to adjust camera angles or lighting. Most artists would take a break during this time, or their team would keep rushing, "Are you done yet? Our artist doesn’t have much time," and so on. But Teacher Wei didn’t do that. He didn’t go back to rest. Instead, he stayed on set, testing the lighting himself, and even helped the props team handle the props.
For example, we had petals falling during the shoot. Every time the petals fell, we had to pick them up and toss them again. Teacher Wei, dressed in heavy period costume which was really inconvenient, still helped the props team gather the petals. And as it was a commercial collaboration, clients were on set, and they tended to be indecisive, debating whether this or that was better. Teacher Wei would help me by saying to the client, "I think this way is good, but I will do a few versions for you to choose from later." Oh my goodness, I thought that was so heartwarming—really, so heartwarming.
And he is genuinely very, very handsome. I’ve met many artists, big and small, and even idols, but Teacher Wei is truly handsome. Before filming him, honestly, I didn’t know him and had no idea what he looked like. Then I watched his recent idol drama and found him so charming. I hope I’ll have the chance to work with Teacher Wei again in the future. So I told him, "I’ve become a fan."
I went back and looked at Teacher Wei’s Xiaohongshu, followed him, and took a photo with him. See that little head in the background?
This year marks Wei Zheming’s 12th year in the entertainment industry—a long journey during which he has experienced significant growth. He recalled, "I entered the industry in 2012, took a break for a while, and later returned. I feel that in my 20s, I had one perspective on life, but after turning 30, I’ve grown and progressed a lot, and my mindset has changed significantly." For him, the feeling now is one of greater ease. He no longer feels the nervousness and uncertainty he once did; instead, his approach has become more pure and simple. "Now I just focus on how to portray the characters and roles better."
Wei Zheming spoke candidly about his ambitions and expectations as an actor: "At 20, I wanted to be 'famous,' I wanted everyone to see my shining points. But back then, what I considered 'famous' probably meant more clicks and comments on Weibo—superficial things. Now, it's more about 'how to do well': how to act in a way that gains everyone's recognition, or how to make a role receive higher attention, become more 'breakout,' seen and discussed by more people. That's what I now consider being 'famous'."
This seems to be a realization many people have as they grow older. The desires of youth are often distant and grand, but with time and experience, what one wants gradually becomes smaller, clearer, and more concrete, eventually turning into a definite target on one's path forward. "Only by doing better myself can more audiences come to like the characters I play, allowing everyone to see more of my shining points. Then I can have the possibility of becoming better and 'more famous'," Wei Zheming concluded.
In recent years, people have increasingly noticed the various impacts the film and television industry has on actresses, but actually, actors face similar situations. Wei Zheming expressed very frankly that his sense of crisis has grown stronger in recent years. "As I work with more and more actors born post-2000, I feel like I really am getting older," he said laughingly about this feeling. "But it's still okay now. Sometimes on set, I meet senior actors or directors who say age doesn't affect anything; in fact, they think I'm at the best age right now. Later, I gradually came to understand—it's true. Right now, I can play roles older than me and also roles younger than me. This is actually a very good state."
He has gained more ease and autonomy. Having accumulated experience over 12 years, Wei Zheming now clearly feels his own energy and ambition. "I want more," he stated firmly. "Whether it's involvement in production aspects or types of roles I haven't played before, I want more. I see this as positive, a good thing—it shows I want to improve. If a person confines themselves within a small set of rules or only plays one type of role, they lose a lot of motivation and also the possibility of advancing further. I didn't dare to think like this before, but now I do. I need to have this kind of 'ambition' to become a better actor."
Interesting indeed. Thanks for sharing. Proud of him 🥰Explains quite a bit about how C Ent casts actors and…
I do too feel he has got more varied roles and opportunities in recent years. Also very comforted to hear him say he believes there will be more to come and to ask fans to believe him, and believe his team. Sitting tight.
