Who is the man that Zhang Ziyi once wanted to marry?

As one of the most successful and powerful Chinese stars in Hollywood, in addition to her famous career, Zhang Ziyi's private life is always a topic of discussion among fans. In particular, before she married Wang Feng, people often "scrutinized" the long list of men who had been with the actress, including many famous names such as Israeli billionaire Vivi Nevo or politician Bo Xilai. Among them was a man that Zhang Ziyi once loved passionately and wanted to marry: Young Master Huo Kaishan, Vice President of Huo Yingdong Group.

Get kicked out because of social class difference

Huo Kaishan was born in 1983, 4 years younger than Zhang Ziyi. He is the nephew of Hong Kong tycoon Huo Ying-tung and the second son of Huo Zhen-ting. His mother is Miss Hong Kong Chu Lingling.

Zhang Ziyi and Huo Kaishan first met in 2004 at the “China Night” charity party. At that time, both were very young, Zhang Ziyi was only 25 years old, and Huo Kaishan was 21. After dancing together, the two seemed unable to take their eyes off each other. Four months later, the Chinese media was abuzz with the moments when Zhang Ziyi and Huo Kaishan were caught holding hands and kissing on the street. From then on, the sisterly love story between the two began to be exposed and discussed.

However, because Khai Son came from a wealthy family with strict rules, the relationship between the two quickly fell apart due to family opposition. The billionaire Ho family did not like to marry a daughter-in-law who worked in the entertainment industry. Ho Khai Son's biological mother, Miss Hong Kong 1977, had to "retreat" after marrying into the Ho family. By 2004, because she could not stand the restrictions and harsh rules in this family, Chu Linh Linh had to leave everything behind to leave the Ho family.

The same goes for Zhang Ziyi. The Huo family feared that her work in the entertainment industry would cause a lot of scandal for their family. Knowing that, the "young pilot" Huo Kaishan decided to just consider his love affair with the female star as a walk in the park and broke up with her after nearly 2 years of dating. But for Zhang Ziyi, things were not so easy and carefree. She invested not only her feelings but also her money in this ill-fated love affair, only to be cruelly abandoned. Many sources said that when she fell in love with Huo Kaishan, Zhang Ziyi paid all the expenses for the dates, while the "young pilot" did not spend a single penny because of his harsh family background.

The marriage was mocked

Around March 2011, rumors spread in the newspapers that Zhang Ziyi had “reunited” with Huo Kaishan. Many pictures showed the actress looking radiant while shopping in Hong Kong. Many sources confirmed that her trip was mainly to visit her ex-lover. When reporters asked if she had come to Hong Kong to date her ex-boyfriend Huo Kaishan, Zhang Ziyi remained silent.

After leaving Huo Kaishan, Zhang Ziyi continued to have many more scandalous love affairs and finally chose to marry Wang Feng. Her marriage also attracted a lot of attention. At first, most fans opposed the marriage because Wang Feng was famous for being a playboy; however, after 6 years together, they always appeared in the media with the image of a happy family that made many people jealous. The couple had a son together and Zhang Ziyi always treated her husband's stepdaughter as her own.

Huo Qishan has also shed his “playboy” image and become vice president of a leading corporation. He was elected as a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) in 2016. With assets worth tens of billions of yuan, Huo Qishan has no shortage of beautiful women surrounding him, but he is currently single.

Currently, many viewers still mock Zhang Ziyi's choice of marriage. They think that Huo Kaishan is better than Wang Feng in every way.

Recently, on the night of December 22, when the news of divorce suddenly broke, Zhang Ziyi tagged Wang Feng in the status she posted on her personal page: "The rumor is fake. Wang Feng, figure out who to sue tomorrow morning."
