On October 23, 2023, the famous movie star Zhang Ziyi and her husband Wang Feng issued a statement at the same time: "After eight years of marriage, we have decided to dissolve the marriage relationship after careful consideration and discussion, and will raise and accompany the children as relatives in the future, (we) are still the most trusted parents of the children." ”
Zhang Ziyi stressed in a statement that the separation of the two "has no right or wrong dispute, and separation does not mean disappointment or betrayal", saying that "this is a joint decision of two adults". At the end of the statement, Zhang Ziyi emphasized that out of protection for the children and family, both will make any further response to the divorce.

Although it has long been rumored on the Internet that Zhang Ziyi and Wang Feng are in a crisis in their relationship, this divorce statement still shocked many people who eat melons, and everyone is full of speculation about the reasons for the divorce of the two.
From the exposure of their relationship in 2013 to the announcement of their divorce in 2023, Zhang Ziyi and Wang Feng have gone through a full decade. In the past ten years, the relationship between the two has always been on the cusp of national attention, and Wang Feng even described the relationship between the two as "suffocating stormy waves".
People knew that Zhang Ziyi and Wang Feng were in love on November 9, 2013. That day, Wang Feng sang a song "I Love You So Much" at the concert with deep affection, and this "you" is Zhang Ziyi.
4 days later, Zhang Ziyi reposted Wang Feng's song "I Love You So Much" on her social platform, and did not call Wang Feng "My Music King". A few days later, Wang Feng and Zhang Ziyi appeared together at the award ceremony of Taiwan's "Golden Horse Award", and after Zhang Ziyi won the "Golden Horse Award", the two held hands publicly for the first time. Wang Feng also praised Zhang Ziyi in an exclusive interview: "She is a kind girl, and she is also a beautiful and mature woman from the inside out, she is "My Queen!" ”
Strange to say, after Zhang Ziyi and Wang Feng's relationship was exposed, there were not many people who were optimistic about them. On the one hand, in the entertainment industry at that time, whether it was fame, status or ability to attract money, Zhang Ziyi, who was the "three actresses" of the Golden Rooster, Golden Horse, and Golden Statue, was much higher than Wang Feng; On the other hand, Wang Feng's complicated love history and two failed marriages also make people question how long this relationship can last.
According to Zhang Ziyi's friends, Zhang Ziyi's parents also objected to her being with Wang Feng, one of the important reasons was that Wang Feng had been divorced twice, in the eyes of the two old men, this man was not a man who was loyal to marriage and responsible for his wife. So no matter who it is, if Wang Feng is mentioned in front of the two old men, the two old men will be angry, and even anxious.
On the eve of Zhang Ziyi's 36th birthday, Wang Feng carefully designed a romantic and luxurious marriage proposal ceremony. At the birthday party, Wang Feng put a 9.15-carat engagement ring on the white model aircraft, and the ring slowly flew towards Zhang Ziyi in the sound of romantic music. Wang Feng knelt down on one knee and confessed to Zhang Ziyi: "We are standing in everyone's field of vision, and we have experienced happiness and sadness. I hope Ziyi can always have the happiest time......"
This scene carefully designed by Wang Feng surprised and moved Zhang Ziyi. Amid the screams and applause of many relatives and friends, she said "I do" with tears in her eyes, and then the two hugged each other warmly.

Although her family has always been against it, Zhang Ziyi, who is full of love, registered her marriage in Hong Kong on May 10, 2015.
After getting married, Zhang Ziyi and Wang Feng seemed to love each other very much in front of outsiders. Not only gave birth to two children, but every year on each other's birthdays, they remember to celebrate each other, and every year on the wedding anniversary, the family will also appear together, which seems to be happy.
Zhang Ziyi also regarded the daughter born to Wang Feng and his ex-wife as his own, and even Wang Feng was so moved that he didn't want it. He once sighed on Weibo: "It's easy to do this, but it's not easy, Ziyi can face the children of the people she loves with the most sincere heart, from this point I am very grateful to Ziyi, she is a good woman with wisdom and warmth!" ”
Sadly, their marriage came to an end in its eighth year. According to a friend of the two, Wang Feng is a person who likes to pursue novelty, and does not like to be controlled and changed, and the insecure Zhang Ziyi always wants to keep an eye on him, which undoubtedly brings a sense of restraint to Wang Feng, who yearns for freedom.
Wang Feng once participated in an interview with "A Date with Luyu", and in just over an hour of interview, Zhang Ziyi called Wang Feng five or six times, which made Wang Feng very disgusted.
Maybe this is not the only reason for the divorce of the two, but anyway, the marriage of the two came to an end after eight years.
After the divorce, almost everyone scolded Wang Feng for being a scumbag who played with women, thinking that he had hurt Zhang Ziyi. Until one day, when Zhang Ziyi was asked about her feelings about this marriage in an interview show, Zhang Ziyi Zhang Ziyi said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "If my boyfriend had married me, I would never have married Wang Feng, who was married for the third time......"

Before Wang Feng, Zhang Ziyi had a boyfriend, which was not a secret in the circle. In 2008, when Zhang Ziyi flew to Athens, Greece as a reporter to light the flame for the Beijing Olympic Games, a reporter found that she had been wearing a huge diamond ring on the ring finger of her left hand. And this diamond ring, which was given to her by her first boyfriend Ivy Nywoff, is said to be 12 carats, and it is still specially made.
Zhang Ziyi also wore diamond rings before, but they were all worn on the tail finger. And this diamond ring tailor-made by Ivy Nie Wolf for Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Ziyi put it on the ring finger of her left hand that represents marriage, which shows that in her heart, Ivy Nie Wolf is her fiancé.
Ivy Nywoff, an Israeli-American of Russian descent who lives on Hudson Avenue in Manhattan, is an investor with significant stakes in Time Warner and Weinstein Films, and is a good friend of Time Warner magnate Murdoch. It is said that Murdoch's wife Wendi Deng married Murdoch through his matchmaking.
According to US media reports, Ivy Nywoff, who is worth as much as $4.7 billion, in addition to investing in the media industry, he is also involved in the catering industry and the IT industry, and is one of the major shareholders of the American restaurant giant NVInvest-ments, and also has huge shares in companies such as Goldman Sachs, eBay, Microsoft and Viacom.
Mr. Ive, who has always kept a low profile and liked to keep his distance from the media, is said to have hired a public relations firm to keep his personal information and public image secret, and even employees of AOL Time Warner said that insiders had little contact with him. Therefore, he is often described in the news as a "taciturn man", "international mystery man", "mysterious financier", etc., and "Vanity Fair" magazine even called him "ace spy".
As a successful businessman, Ivy Niwolf is naturally indispensable for scandals. It is said that supermodel Kate Moss, Pamela Anderson and many other actresses have an unusual relationship with him, and some even say that he has multiple illegitimate children outside. But these rumors have not been confirmed.
Judging by his appearance, Ivy Nywolf is very ordinary, not the kind of man who is of the "handsome" type. A reporter broke the news that Ivy Niewolf is only 1.65 meters tall, so when he appears in public, he always wears a pair of high heels, the purpose is to make himself look taller.

Zhang Ziyi and Ivy Niwolf met at the Cannes Film Festival in 2008. At that time, the Wenchuan earthquake occurred in China, and Zhang Ziyi wanted to take the opportunity to attend the Cannes Film Festival to raise some funds for the Wenchuan disaster area.
At that time, Zhang Ziyi did not have many friends in France, so the fundraising work did not go smoothly at first. After Ivy Niwolf learned about it, he not only used his connections to introduce many friends to Zhang Ziyi, but also personally stood up for Zhang Ziyi and mobilized those celebrities to donate money and materials. This also made Zhang Ziyi have a good impression of this man. Later, when recalling this incident, Zhang Ziyi always said: "I think a big part of the success of this thing is because he helped a lot." “
After the Wenchuan earthquake, the country held a national mourning event, and although Zhang Ziyi was in Cannes, she also responded positively. When attending an event at a time, she deliberately chose a long black dress without any decorations, which looked out of place among the actresses who participated in the event. After the event, Ivy Nywolf told her, "You can't wear it next time, because it's not the end of the world, and we're all trying to figure it out." “
Zhang Ziyi thought that Ivy Niwoff was a foreigner and could not empathize with the disaster of the Chinese, so she told Ivy what she knew about the tragedy of the Wenchuan earthquake. During the narration, Zhang Ziyi couldn't help crying while talking, but she didn't expect Ivey's eyes to be red too. This incident also made Zhang Ziyi believe that the man in front of him "has a good heart" and has a better impression of him.
What made Zhang Ziyi the most memorable was that Ivy Mao recommended herself and became her "English teacher". At that time, Zhang Ziyi's English skills were limited, and she often made jokes because she said the wrong words, and once mistakenly referred to "couch potato" (couch potato, English slang for someone who lies on the sofa and watched TV all day) as "couch tomato" (sofa tomato), which was ridiculed by some Western reporters with ulterior motives. With Ivey's help, Zhang Ziyi's spoken English improved by leaps and bounds, and after only a few months, she was able to speak fluent English in front of many reporters, which won applause from the audience.
After falling in love with Ivy Nywoff, the two had a high-profile relationship, often attending various fashion shows and charity galas together. When they appeared together, their hands were clasped with ten fingers, which seemed very affectionate.
One of Zhang Ziyi's best friends recalled: "He was very nice and considerate to Ziyi, and we met many times. Once Ziyi was a little angry when filming the movie "Mei Lanfang" in Beijing, he immediately flew to Beijing to accompany his girlfriend, and he cared about her very much, and everything centered on her. Many people think that rich men are not considerate enough, but in fact, love has nothing to do with money, and he is very accommodating to Ziyi. ”

Just when everyone thought that the two would have lovers and eventually become married, the news of the two "breaking up" came.
According to rumors, the reason why the two broke up was that Ivy Niewoff, who is worth $5 billion, asked Zhang Ziyi to sign a "prenuptial agreement", and after Zhang Ziyi had the idea of cheating or divorce after marriage, he voluntarily gave up all of Ivy Niewoff's property.
Ivy Niwolf's reason is: "Zhang Ziyi is in the entertainment industry, and it is obviously impossible to get out of the mud without staining, so you must sign this agreement to get married." And Zhang Ziyi saw that her boyfriend, who had been with her for four years, said such words that she didn't believe herself, and she was immediately chilled.
Perhaps because of the cultural differences between the East and the West, it is natural for Ivy Niwolf to sign this "prenuptial agreement", but in the eyes of Zhang Ziyi, who grew up in China, it is a distrust of herself, and even an insult to herself.
After breaking up with Ivy Nivo, Zhang Ziyi was silent for a long time. In 2011, people heard that she and Sa Beining got together. For some reason, the relationship didn't last long. Eventually, she married Wang Feng.
After divorcing Wang Feng, Zhang Ziyi has been single. Maybe there was only one person in her heart, but that person and she ended up missing.
