And in the play played Ding Wuwei actor Zhou Mingzeng was also recently photographed as a salesman on the tour bus, in order to sell his own products he worked hard and the uncles and aunts sang and interacted, the dress is also very simple, but the 51-year-old and everyone's impression of the appearance has not changed much, see his uncles and aunts are still very happy, but also put forward the requirements for group photos, chorus.
There are also many Taiwan media reports that Zhou Mingzeng is working as a salesman, but he is not as depressed as everyone thinks, because according to another female star who has been engaged in tour car salesmen, the profits in this industry are very good, sometimes the monthly income of 200,000 Taiwan dollars is not a problem, coupled with the status of stars, the performance will definitely be better than ordinary salesmen.
With the growth of age, coupled with the decline of the local film and television industry, Zhou Mingzeng's career has fallen into a trough in recent years, after 19 years he has not been filmed, some time ago some people found him as a guest in an unpopular numerology program, goodbye he put down his body to the tour bus as a salesman.
