The male actor "Xingxing" (real name: Wang Xing), who had roles in TV series such as "The Story of Rose", "Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yuehong Chapter", and "Crime Scene II", recently went to Thailand to join a drama crew and has since gone missing near the Thai-Myanmar border. Many celebrities, including Yao Chen, Shu Qi, Jin Chen, Da Peng, and Gong Jun, have reposted calls for help to find him, making this the top trending topic on Weibo.
Actor Xu Dajiu stated that "Xingxing" has been shaved and sent to a scam park. The Chinese Consulate in Chiang Mai has stated that they have contacted the family of the person involved and provided assistance.
Reportedly Shaved and Sent to Myawaddy Park
According to various domestic media and online news, the mainland male actor "Xingxing", whose girlfriend "Jiajia" posted on Weibo on the 5th seeking help, mentioned that "Xingxing" added the coordinator's contact after seeing a recruitment message. After passing the audition, he was arranged to go to Thailand to join the crew. Upon arriving in Bangkok, he was taken by a contact person claiming to be attending a start-up ceremony, but the actual route increasingly deviated, eventually disappearing at the Thai-Myanmar border.
"Jiajia" stated that her boyfriend has been missing since around noon on January 3rd, and despite exhausting all methods to contact him, there was no response, prompting her to seek help online: "Please help me, save Xingxing from peril." Jiajia revealed that she flew to Bangkok today and has filed a case at the embassy and local police station.
The disappearance of "Xingxing" quickly drew attention from the Chinese entertainment industry, with many celebrities, including Yao Chen, Shu Qi, Jin Chen, Da Peng, and Gong Jun, reposting "Jiajia's" message, hoping that the public could help find "Xingxing". The topic "Actor Xingxing Missing at the Thai-Myanmar Border" also surged to the top of Weibo's hot search.

"I have contacted them, and currently, Wang Xing has entered the park, and his hair has been shaved. A video call was made, but it is not convenient to show it. He is in the third batch; I was in the second batch. I can now confirm that he is in Myawaddy."
On the morning of January 6th, staff from the Chinese Consulate in Chiang Mai stated that they received a call from the family of the person involved on January 3rd. The consulate has detailed the handling of the missing person case and has maintained contact with the family. The consulate will continue to follow up on the case according to relevant regulations and will effectively safeguard the safety and legal rights of Chinese citizens within their jurisdiction.
