Infamous Chinese producer/director/screenwriter and celebrity, Yu Zheng (于正), made headlines again.

He is often in the news for very controversial statements he makes. This time, he was accused of calling actress, Zhao Lusi (赵露思), a “low EQ, semi-famous actress, who forgot her roots”.

There is a post going around showing Yu Zheng allegedly saying this in a post from his WeChat Friend’s Circle, “An actress, when she was a rookie, I gave her her first series, her first opportunity. When I discovered her issues, I immediately told her she can’t be stuck in her comfort zone, she must courageously break though. Afterwards, I saw she got popular and I was quite happy for her, but we didn’t have much contact. I don’t like to frequently contact artists when they’re popular. Later on, I heard she changed her team and then today, I looked for her about something. I discovered she deleted me! My god, if you’re going to forget your roots, you should still have some EQ, okay? Was it necessary to do it so fast and urgent? You’re already popular to the point you sever relationships with everyone? Really too self-righteous. Get you up on the hot search tomorrow!”
