Recently, a hearsay of a passer-by that "Brother Fa" appeared in the filming site of Geng Ning's MV drew the public attention to singer Geng Ning. Reviewing the netizens' comments, the focus was not on the true or false "Brother Fa", but more on Geng Ning's comeback and his new song "If You Want To Go, Don't Look Back". This made Geng Ning and his team feel comforted. However, an insider revealed that international superstar Zhang Ziyi had filmed a chips advertisement 11 years ago with Geng Ning, which once again narrowed the distance between Geng Ning and international superstars, and the credibility of Brother Fa in the film seemed to be enhanced.
After contacting with Geng Ning's team, the author learned that Geng Ning and Zhang Ziyi met in 1998 when they participated in a chips advertisement filmed by Zhao Xiaoding, the dedicated photographer for director Zhang Yimou. At that time, Zhang Ziyi, as the female lead of the advertisement, participated in the filming despite being unwell. Her excellent performance and tenacious personality left a deep impression on Geng Ning. During that time, Geng Ning also completed every expression and action very hardworkingly, and the two cooperated well with each other, leading to a natural performance. Ziyi's mother looked favorably upon Geng Ning and hoped he would take the entrance exam for the Film Academy, leaving her phone number for him.
When the author tried to inquire whether it was Zhang Ziyi, whose starry path has been brilliant, knowing about Geng Ning's plan to make a high-profile comeback, still remembering their decade-long friendship, and recommending Brother Fa to participate in the MV, there was no positive response.
It was also learned that Geng Ning is currently busy recording for his new album, and the MV of Geng Ning's new song "If You Want To Go, Don't Look Back" will be released soon.
