Speaking of Miaomiao, many people’s first impression of her should be “Youth”. As the heroine hand-picked by Feng Xiaogang, she plays the tolerant He Xiaoping. It was also because of this drama that she entered the public eye. At that time, she had a box office of 1.4 billion for starring. Many people said that Miaomiao was a “hunting girl” with a bright future. But things didn’t seem to develop according to the public’s expectations. Miao Miao, who quickly broke out of the industry, chose a path that was not understood by most people. She chose to get married to Zheng Kai, gave birth to three children in three consecutive years, and gradually disappeared from the big screen. It is precisely because of this that the label “fertility machine” was affixed to Miaomiao.
In May 2020, Zheng Kai and Miao Miao officially announced that they had received their certificates. In October of the same year, their eldest daughter was born. In 2022, their second son was born into the world. In 2023, the third daughter will also meet everyone. Such a tight birth rhythm has caused extensive discussions among netizens, mixed with all kinds of rumors. Especially Zheng Kai said in the program that Miao Miao has a body that is prone to pregnancy.“Basically take no measures to achieve success”,This passage was intercepted and spread, and the controversy also fermented on a large scale.
Some netizens felt sorry for Miaomiao. The rising actress had only one year between her two pregnancies, and she also had a caesarean section to get pregnant again within a short period of time, which would cause irreversible damage to her body. Gradually, comments such as “fertility machine” and “love brain” came overwhelmingly. Looking at the entertainment industry, the situation of female stars has always been difficult. It can be said that the golden window period is very short. As the protagonist of “Youth”, Zhong Chuxi has been active on the big screen, while Miao Miao directly moved to short video platforms to share her daily life of growing vegetables, growing flowers and raising children at home.
During the summer, Zheng Kai and Miao Miao took their eldest daughter and second son to a summer camp in Vancouver, Canada, sparking discussion and bringing this controversy many years ago back into the public eye. But the younger sister found that public opinion seemed to have quietly reversed.
Zheng Kai and Miaomiao rented a villa in Vancouver for a short period of time for a month. Miaomiao recorded the complete daily life of accompanying them in the vlog, from the family’s long-distance flight to catching up on jet lag, to shopping for ingredients in the supermarket to cook together, to picking up and dropping off the children for summer camps every day, etc. She lamented that as a parent, you need to learn to let go and don’t have to stand guard at the school gate all the time. Reuters had previously photographed the two of them visiting furniture stores and other places. It was once rumored that the family wanted to immigrate and settle down. She clarified that it was just a short-term study tour experience. After the trip, the family had returned to China.
I have to say that Miaomiao’s VLOG gives people a good impression. Many people said before that she was trapped in the family and lost her right to speak without a job. But in the video, we can clearly see the couple planning their children’s education together. Zheng Kai, who speaks fluent English, is responsible for communication matters such as car rental and purchase, while Miao Miao is responsible for recording life and taking care of the children’s daily life. The two people divided the work and cooperated in an orderly manner. The eldest daughter can communicate fluently in English at overseas summer camps, and the son is also growing up in a bilingual environment.
