Read on to find out 10 secrets about Wang Yibo that you probably didn’t know before now!
Fact 1: He was once a famous movie star
Wang's career as an actor began in the 1980s. In 1984, he starred alongside Leslie Cheung in the film A Better Tomorrow which made him a household name in China. The movie won several awards and was even remade for Hollywood in 2010. After his success with the first installment, he went on to star in many other action films such as Shanghai Blues and As Tears Go By. Fact 2: He is married to Jackie Chan's daughter: Wang met his wife Li Jie during the filming of As Tears Go By when she was just 14 years old.
Fact 2: He made the news when he had met Zhu Xiaoming
Wang was a student at Harvard and was working on his masters degree in engineering. He had been studying in the US for four years when he met Zhu Xiaoming. It was love at first sight for both of them, but it didn't work out as well for their relationship as it did for their careers.
Fact 3: He produced his own albums when he was in South Korea
The third fact you don't know about Wang Yibo is that he produced his own albums when he was in South Korea. This is a huge deal because no one else has ever done it before. It's not even possible to do this in China!
Fact 4: His songs were successful in China
Wang's success in China can be largely attributed to his songs. Love was a huge hit in China, and it was the first time that Chinese people were exposed to this type of romantic love song. Love became a popular wedding song for newlyweds because it represented romance and happiness, which is what newlyweds want in their marriages.
Fact 5: During 2014 New Year's Eve, he sang with foreign artists
Wang Yibo is a Chinese singer and actor who was born on 18 November 1987 in Beijing. He has spent the last few years of his life travelling to different countries such as Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand for performances. In 2014, he had the opportunity to perform with foreign artists at the CCTV New Year's Eve Gala. There are many things about him that you may not know about or have been wrong about all this time.
Fact 6: He works out regularly
Wang is an avid runner and cyclist. He often trains for marathons and other races. In fact, he's competing in the New York Marathon this November.

Fact 7: He is good at solving puzzles
Wang Yibo is really good at solving puzzles. His favorite puzzle is called the Rubik's cube, which has been around for over 40 years. The puzzle consists of six faces that can each be solved independently of the others, made up of 27 pieces. When solved, each side should have just one color on it.
Fact 8: His weakness in playing Go Fish with kids can be explained by his math skills
Wang Yibo doesn't always know how to play Go Fish with children. In one game, he didn't even know how to pick up cards from the ground. This can be explained by his math skills: the child is trying to find a card that has a number on it, but you can’t just pick up cards from the floor because some of them are face down and you don’t know what card it is.
Fact 9. He loves foreign movies and TV shows
Wang loves to watch foreign movies and TV shows. He has an extensive collection of DVDs, which he watches with his wife on the weekends. Some of his favorite titles are The Hangover, The Office, Gossip Girl, and Friends.
Fact 10. He has great taste in movies (even though he doesnt watch as much)
Wang Yibo never misses a movie. Whether it's a new release, classic film, or foreign flick, he can't get enough of the big screen. If there's one word to describe his tastes in movies, it would be eclectic. But that doesn't mean he doesn't have some favorites.
