Award winning record

Character evaluation

Without outstanding appearance and luck, Zhang Jiahui has been in the film and television industry for 20 years. It was not until 2009 that he won the Hong Kong Film Awards for his "witness". Growing up in the big environment of Hong Kong Idol stars, Zhang Jiahui is not sociable and is not keen on expressing himself. In the past 20 years or so, he has made few appearances and socialized, but he has always been an ordinary actor. (time online review) when he is busy, Zhang Jiahui makes movies, publishes records, performs stage plays, and even goes to the radio station to guest star in radio dramas. He has no family background and ordinary talent. However, he is very serious and hard-working, which is an affirmation of being an actor. (Tencent online review)
