Chinese actress Zhu Rui, who acted in 'Let Me Shine', 'A Beautiful Daughter-in-Law Era' and the web series 'Infernal Affairs', recently revealed that she has fallen into financial difficulties due to stock investment failures. At 39, she has become reliant on her elderly mother for financial support, sparking widespread online discussion.
Zhu Rui rose to fame for her role in 'A Beautiful Daughter-in-Law Era'. She went on to star in several dramas and web series and enjoyed a smooth-running acting career. However, lacking experience in the stock market, she jumped in with only her courage. Unexpectedly, she failed at stock trading—not only losing the 700,000 yuan (about 420,000 ringgit) she had accumulated over the past 20 years, but also declaring bankruptcy. Now, she can only rely on her mother.
With her finances in trouble, Zhu Rui’s acting career has also stalled. She stated that she had suffered from seven years of stalking and harassment, with the perpetrator even applying to be a security guard in her residential community just to monitor her up close. Zhu Rui said that in order to care for her ailing mother, she was unable to accept work offers from production teams outside her city, causing her income to drop sharply.
Recently, she said in a video that to save money, she gave up buying her favorite luxury bags, gold watches, and gold necklaces. But now she ends up in this plight, lamenting: “What are these three things? Compared with my stocks, I could’ve even bought all three if I didn’t invest in stocks… I really regret it!” Now Zhu Rui’s life has become difficult to the point where she needs to ask her mother for 2,000 yuan (about 1,213 ringgit) for living expenses.#
