Recent Activity Schedule for Wang Baoqiang

Mainland popular male star Wang Baocai announced publicly through his agent Jinge that he would stop working to rest due to fever and heart discomfort at the beginning of March, and would not participate in any activities until the end of March. However, netizens found out that throughout March, Wang Baocai was very active with no signs of resting, frequently attending various commercial and charity events, raising suspicions of "resting in name only, but actually working."

Netizens criticized him for "never being idle."

Since Wang Baocai announced his rest on March 3, he had missed the launch ceremony of the program "A Bite of China" at Tianjin TV due to illness, and it was also rumored that he postponed entering the film set for the same reason, causing the production team to wait for him. Netizens were dissatisfied with his frequent appearances while claiming to rest, causing inconvenience to the production team. A netizen named "Myriad Starlight" wrote: "In March, I heard that Wang Baocai was sick, the reason being excessive fatigue leading to a fever. The doctor suggested he needed rest. At that time, I thought this must be a serious illness. But now it turns out that Wang Baocai has never been idle." Then the netizen listed a series of activities Wang Baocai attended in March, and said, "I heard that one day after work, he sang karaoke until 5 a.m. Is he really sick or not? If he is sick, such折腾 (exertion) is unacceptable. If he's not sick, it's too disrespectful to leave the production team waiting and happily run around elsewhere." Many netizens responded similarly. "Little Dumpling Big Heart" said: "As a fellow townsman, I feel that Wang Baocai has appeared too frequently recently. Some occasions could have been refused or declined. He should be more clear-headed. He is not an idol or a power player, just a lucky one. Seizing opportunities to make money is understandable, but don't overdraw!" Some netizens shared their views. Forme777 believed: "What he did is relatively smart. This kind of special actor cannot stay popular for long. It's likely that they will only be hot for two or three years like Ado and Dao Lang back then. So it's better to take advantage of the popularity to earn as much as possible." Some netizens think that Wang Baocai has no choice but to be used as a money-making machine by his agency.

The assistant explained: "Baocai was indeed sick in March."

When the reporter asked Wang Baocai's assistant Nana about this matter, she said: "Baocai was indeed sick and needed rest in March. We let him rest for a whole month in March without taking on any work. The activities mentioned by netizens should be some charity events towards the end of March. The release date for 'Duo Biao' is still under negotiation." Regarding the accusations of "frequent performances," Nana believed: "Performances refer to commercial activities with compensation. Most of the activities he attended were of a public welfare and charity nature, without receiving payment. This term is inaccurate." She also revealed that Wang Baocai would mainly attend public welfare and charity activities next, with one or two confirmed TV drama scripts in hand. In June, he will publish his autobiography.
