[The Epoch Times, December 01, 2023](Epoch Times reporter Tong Yijia reported) The family drama “Little Man’s Life” co-starred by mainland actor Qin Hao and actress Jiang Xin was recently broadcast on CCTV. Netizens discovered that the drama is actually the “School District Room” filmed by Qin Hao and Zhao Wei in 2020, which was “resurrected” following Jiang Xin’s AI face-changing Zhao Wei. The news sparked heated debate.

“House in the School District” tells the story of a young couple who have been married for 7 years. When their son is regarding to enter elementary school, they inspect famous elementary schools in the city and start a series of toss-ups in purchasing a house in the school district. The play was originally starring Qin Hao and Zhao Wei. Filming started in 2020 and was completed in March 2021. Unexpectedly, on August 26 of the same year, the heroine Zhao Wei was suddenly banned and listed as a “bad artist” by the Chinese Communist Party. There was no news regarding the series of works that were being filmed and were being broadcast.

Seeing that time is passing day by day, Zhao Wei has no hope of making a comeback. Last year, the crew of “School District Room” found Jiang Xin’s AI to replace Zhao Wei. In addition, because the subject of housing in a school district is considered taboo by the authorities, the drama has made some adjustments to the plot. For example, the son who is regarding to enter elementary school and needs to choose a housing in a school district is changed to having a second child because of “political correctness” The decision to move to a new house only passed the official review.

Judging from the parts that have been aired, although the director replaced Zhao Wei with Jiang Xin in places where AI can change faces, some backgrounds and distant views were not replaced, accidentally allowing Zhao Wei to “appear” on the screen. Some people said that Jiang Xin, who originally had a slightly chubby physique, lost a lot of weight, but later found out that it was actually Zhao Wei, which accidentally triggered mutual hostility between fans of both parties.

So far, the outside world still knows nothing regarding Zhao Wei’s situation, and the official has not given any explanation. There are different opinions on the main reason why Zhao Wei was suddenly banned. One theory is that she is close to Jack Ma, and the other is that she was involved in the political struggle between Zeng Qinghong and Xi Jinping.

Some netizens analyzed that Zhao Wei’s chances of returning to filming are slim. Moreover, following “School District Room” was changed to “Xiaoman Life” and aired, the response was mediocre.
