Fiercely Casting Off the Title of 'Four Young Masters of Beijing'—Zhao Wei's Ex Marries Younger Wife

Wang Dao Han’s son, Wang Yu, former president of China's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits, was previously rumored to have had relationships with female celebrities such as Zhao Wei, Huang Yi, Zhang Min, and Chen Zihan. Netizens also grouped him with other second-generation wealthy heirs, Wang Xiaofei, Wang Ke, and Wang Can, giving them the joint nickname “Four Young Masters of Beijing.” The 50-year-old Wang Yu issued an official statement on Qixi (Chinese Valentine’s Day), announcing that he had married fashion blogger ‘Cecilia’ Cui Can. The couple registered their marriage on Cui Can's 30th birthday, making their age difference 20 years.
Wang Yu also solemnly issued a statement, hoping outsiders would refrain from using the “Four Young Masters of Beijing” title for him. He noted that he is not a figure from the entertainment industry and does not wish to occupy public resources. Wang Yu stated, “I was born into a revolutionary family, have been modest and low-key since childhood, and always encourage myself to be a person dedicated to public welfare, rather than the so-called 'young master' as rumored outside. I dislike the vanity of labels like 'Four Young Masters of Beijing,' and hope the media will understand.”

Looking back at Wang Yu's dating history, he was “Little Swallow” Zhao Wei’s first publicly acknowledged boyfriend, with photos of them traveling together in Hong Kong revealed in July 2004. In July 2005, Wang Yu was spotted holding hands with “Second-Generation Little Swallow” Huang Yi, after which rumors of his breakup with Zhao Wei surfaced. In March 2009, Wang Yu appeared as the boyfriend at the memorial service of actress Li Yu from ‘Romance in the Rain,’ and accompanied Li Yu’s mother, earning widespread admiration from netizens for his sincerity and loyalty.
