[edit] Biography
Qi graduated with a major in physical education. He won the title of Champion and Mr Personality in the China Round of Asian Star Search in 1999. Previously, Qi worked as a model and played the lead role in a Guangzhou TV series, before signing on a contract with Singapore's MediaCorp Studios. [1]
In 2000, Qi was cast in his debut role as Sikong Zhaixing in Master Swordsman Lu Xiaofeng together with other actors from Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. Following that, Qi was cast in Dare To Strike, another Singapore-Hong Kong co-produced blockbuster.
Although Qi is new to Singapore's film and television industry, he already has a wide fan base and an official fan club. Apart from acting in local television series, Qi has also starred in international films, some of which were produced by Mediacorp Raintree Pictures.[2]
Qi is rumoured to be in a relationship with former top actor Xie Shaoguang. Both of them have never responded to the rumours. [3]
