China's infatuation with actress Zhao Liying continues to grow, as she expands her empire with the acquisition of a new company, which has received a "performance agency establishment permit" from the local goverment. According to data from Tianyancha, a popular business information provider in China, Zhao Liying's company named "Chongqing Xinghai Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd." has recently obtained a "performance agency establishment permit" from the city's cultural and tourism administration.

This permit grants the company the right to engage in activities related to the performance business, such as organizing and managing performances, and it is valid from January 24, 2024, to January 23, 2026. The establishment of this company marks a significant step forward for Zhao Liying, whose career has spanned various fields including acting, singing, and producing.

Netizens on Weibo have been speculating that the new company might be Zhao Liying's way of fulfilling her long-time dream of holding a concert. Some users have even been joking about her putting on a concert and being able to perform all 12 songs she mentioned in her posts, causing a playful excitement among her fans.

However, some Weibo users are more focused on her upcoming movie, "The 20th Law," which is set to premiere during the Chinese New Year. The movie, directed by Zhang Yibai, stars Zhao Liying as a hearing-impaired woman named He Xiaoping. Her fans are eagerly anticipating her performance and the movie's release.

This move by Zhao Liying is not unprecedented, as many celebrities in China have expanded their portfolios beyond just acting. With the new company, Zhao Liying is set to explore new opportunities in the entertainment industry and expand her career even further.
