Actress Zhang Jingyi recently posted a “Happy Chinese New Year” greeting on her overseas social media account, which subsequently sparked discussion among certain groups of international users.
Some commenters argued that the phrasing did not align with the more widely used “Lunar New Year” terminology in multicultural contexts, leading to heated exchanges in the comment section. A number of emotionally charged remarks appeared during the peak of the discussion.
From an operational standpoint, Zhang Jingyi’s overseas account has reportedly been managed with ongoing team support, maintaining a consistent update schedule. Despite the wave of online debate, the overall impact on her account appears limited. Engagement metrics during the period showed sustained core fan support and increased interaction.
Additionally, some users voiced support, noting that “Chinese New Year” remains a commonly used expression. Amid heightened visibility and public attention, her follower count reportedly experienced a modest increase.
As of now, the discussion remains confined to social media platforms, and no further public response has been issued by Zhang Jingyi or her representatives.
