According to Sina, actor Huang Xiaoming recently signed a management contract with young actress Bai Yiru, born in 2003. Hailing from Xinjiang, Bai Yiru quickly drew attention for her large, expressive eyes, statuesque 1.72m height, and long, slender legs.
The topic “Huang Xiaoming signs actress with very big eyes” skyrocketed to the top of Weibo’s trending list, garnering over 130 million views. Bai Yiru’s debut under Huang Xiaoming’s management has been remarkably successful, with netizens buzzing about her appearance and potential.
What caught even more attention was her striking resemblance to Huang’s rumored longtime muse, Zhao Wei. Many commented that Bai Yiru shares Zhao Wei’s large eyes and full, slightly pouty lips, which mirror the features of Huang’s ex-wife as well. Some fans even noted similarities between Bai Yiru and actresses Yoon Eun Hye and Kanna Hashimoto, adding to the online frenzy.
Huang Xiaoming has never hidden his admiration for Zhao Wei, whom he met during their time at the Beijing Film Academy. “She was the first girl I saw when I entered the classroom,” he once said in an interview. “It felt like fate. She was so beautiful—I thought she was a real-life fairy.”
In another show, Huang openly admitted, “She was my first love. It was one-sided, but in my eyes, she was like an angel.” Over the years, the two remained close friends, co-starring in dramas and appearing together on variety shows. Huang even once declared that he would always come to Zhao Wei’s aid if she ever needed help.
Even after Huang Xiaoming’s relationships with Angelababy and Ye Ke, fans noted that both women shared Zhao Wei’s signature large eyes. Now, with Bai Yiru entering the picture, netizens believe Huang’s type hasn’t changed—suggesting that Zhao Wei continues to influence his preferences.
Bai Yiru has also earned praise for her fresh visuals and distinct fashion sense. She’s previously acted in a few dramas, including The Glory starring Chen Duling.
Whether intentional or not, Huang Xiaoming’s latest artist reveal has not only turned heads but also reignited conversations about his lingering admiration for Zhao Wei.
