Dating for two years, Zhang Ziyi (章子怡) and 43-year-old rock musician Wang Feng (汪峰) are ready to take the next step towards marriage. Known for his love of public exploits, Wang Feng carefully planned a luxurious party for Zhang Ziyi’s 36th birthday and surprised her with a marriage proposal. When Ziyi went on stage with Wang Feng to cut her birthday cake, romantic music began playing and a small remote controlled airplane flew towards the couple. Wang Feng intercepted the toy airplane, took out a small jewelry box from inside, and opened the small box to reveal a 9.15 carat Moussaieff diamond ring. In front of the large crowd of family and friends in attendance, Wang Feng got down on one knee and declared, “As we stand in front of everyone’s witness, we have experienced much happiness and dejection. I wish that Ziyi can always have the happiest of times. If we can grow old together, I will take care of you.” Surprised and touched to tears, Ziyi nodded fervently and agreed to Wang Feng’s proposal, “I am willing.” Ziyi could not contain her excitement and immediately shared the good news on Weibo with a picture of fireworks and the caption “I am willing!” In response, Wang Feng lovingly declared, “Thank you for completing my life. All the hardships are now in the past. From now on, let us stay hand in hand until we are old!” Ziyi and Wang Feng met in May 2013 at Huayi Brothers President Liu Tao‘s (劉韜) birthday party. Afterward, Ziyi invited Wang Feng to play mahjong at her house. When Ziyi served as a judge for talent show The X Factor: China’s Strongest Voice <中國最強音>, she asked for advice from Wang Feng, and the couple grew closer. Creds: Oriental Daily
