After the blacklisting of Zhao Wei in China, it’s not a surprise to see Chinese celebrities worrying who might be ‘axed’ next.
According to 8days, Chinese director Zhou Guogang who often spills entertainment gossip online also weighed in on the matter.
In a video posted on Douyin, Zhou called out celebrities such as Huang Xiaoming and Li Bingbing for distancing themselves from Zhao Wei. Among the other things he said was a warning to actor Jet Li.
“Quickly flee! Next month, you might just become the [next victim] of a total collapse!” said Zhou.
This caution is stemmed from a rumour and an unverified list of names claiming that China’s National Radio and Television Administration will be placing new restrictions on celebrities with foreign citizenship.
Besides Jet Li, who is a Singapore citizen, other celebrities on the list with foreign citizenship include actress Liu Yifei (American), actors Nicholas Tse (Canadian), Zhang Tielin (UK) and Mark Chao (Canadian), as well as singers Will Pan (American) and Wang Leehom (American).
