Yang Ying (Angelababy) was recently invited to attend a training workshop held by the National Radio and Television Administration, attracting attention and discussion from netizens. Her manager was previously seen dining with Ang Lee, allegedly lobbying for a role in the director’s new film, sparking speculation that Baby’s full comeback is just around the corner.
Recently, Baby was spotted low-key at the artist training program in Shenzhen organized by the National Radio and Television Administration. The course is strictly managed in a fully closed-off manner, with participants prohibited from leaving at will and required to complete exams and study reports. Training content includes professional ethics, policies and regulations, as well as career planning. The program is viewed as a continuation of reforms within the entertainment industry. Among Baby’s fellow trainees are Bai Lu, Guan Xiaotong, and Hu Xianxu. One photo shared online shows a group of stars together, with Yang Ying wearing subtle makeup and dressing in a notably understated style.
Two years ago, Baby was embroiled in the “19+” dance show controversy and subsequently faced an informal ban from the Chinese entertainment industry. Her recent low-profile participation in the training is seen as an opportunity to secure a full comeback, with insiders suggesting the program could boost investor confidence. Baby’s manager was recently photographed having a private dinner with Ang Lee, leading to further rumors that the meeting was to discuss securing a role for Baby in Lee’s new film Old Gold Mountain. Reports have also linked Baby to a potential collaboration with Li Qin in the new drama Glorious Song, indicating her gradual return to on-screen work.
