Zhao Wei "shocked" with never-before-released photos, fans regret her current beauty

A never-before-seen photo of Zhao Wei is attracting the attention of the online community. Her pure beauty, big round eyes and radiant demeanor when she was a student at the Beijing Film Academy have left netizens in awe.

A rare old photo of Zhao Wei was suddenly shared on social media, causing a stir in the online community. The moment was captured when she was a third-year student at the Department of Performance, Beijing Film Academy, when she had just reached fame with her famous role as Xiao Yan Zi in "Princess Pearl". Although her name had begun to spread throughout China at that time, the showbiz halo still could not overshadow the actress's inherent innocence and mischievousness.

What made people "slightly shocked" was Trieu Vy's incredibly natural beauty in the photo. Without elaborate makeup, she still stood out with her big round eyes, chubby face, lively expressions and a vibrant demeanor. These points helped her become the beauty icon of the 8x and 9x generations.

Not only her appearance, Zhao Wei's acting ability at that time also made a strong impression. The role of Xiao Yan Zi, a naughty, clumsy girl who is devoted to her friends but often causes trouble, was a double-edged sword. Without enough charm and cuteness, the character could easily become ridiculous. But Zhao Wei did the opposite, she turned Xiao Yan Zi into a pop culture icon, passionately loved by audiences across Asia.

This old photo is not only a nostalgic "gift" for fans, but also a clear proof of the saying: a true star, even if not shining yet, still has an aura that cannot be hidden.

Zhao Wei was once a phenomenon across Asia after her role as Xiao Yan Zi in "Hoan Chau Cach Cach", a supporting role that "overshadowed" the female lead Ha Tu Vy. After just one night, she became an A-list star, with a huge fan base. Nearly 30 years have passed, but the image of that clumsy, righteous girl still lives on in the hearts of the public.

The series first aired in 1998, but quickly became a small screen phenomenon not only in China but also throughout Asia, including Vietnam. With a dramatic script, mixed with humor and emotion, the series attracted a record number of viewers for many years.

Thanks to her great popularity, Trieu Vy has "escaped" many times from a series of serious charges such as: stock market manipulation, stock manipulation... However, the old images that have just been "dug up" have also shocked many people to realize that from a simple schoolgirl, she has gradually become a symbol of deceit and trickery.

The scandalous financial deals that Zhao Wei was behind left hundreds of people homeless and penniless. The actress is still facing hundreds of lawsuits, and the name "Little Swallow" is now associated with the image of a "hawk" in the business world.

Zhao Wei was once considered a "natural born star": possessing outstanding beauty, big, attractive eyes, high EQ, skillful behavior, and knowing how to act and sing. She was always the center of attention every time she appeared, surpassing her colleagues. But that halo became a big shadow, obscuring Zhao Wei's true self, a "star that bloomed early and faded quickly" in the literal sense.

In August 2021, Chinese showbiz was shocked when Zhao Wei was suddenly "banned from broadcasting". Without any official announcement, without any clear charges, her name was quietly removed from a series of hit films, and prestigious awards were also erased. A star who once "stormed" Asian screens suddenly became a name erased from the entertainment industry.

Not only did her career decline, her appearance surprised her fans. Years of alcohol abuse made her look much older than her contemporaries like Ruby Lin or Zhou Xun.

Although she tried to "hold back time" with beauty apps every time she livestreamed, when her real face was revealed at the airport, Trieu Vy shocked the public. She was no longer the radiant star of the past. She looked no different from an ordinary middle-aged woman, completely losing the aura of the "Little Swallow" of the past.
