[edit] Kung Fu Hustle
Huang Shengyi shot to fame after starring in the comedic martial arts film titled Kung Fu Hustle, directed by and also starring acclaimed Chinese film star Stephen Chow. Her role in the film was the character by the name of Fong, an ice-cream girl who was a humble, polite and most notably sweet girl who was mute, unable to speak. She plays the role of the romance in the movie of Chow's character Sing, the wanna-be gangster out on his luck.
[edit] Post Kung Fu Hustle & Sequel
A sequel is lined up to Kung Fu Hustle, but the role of the female co-star is uncertain. Huang Shengyi was slated for a return to the sequel after winning the hearts of many in the first installment, but after working outside of her contract with Stephen Chow's Star Overseas Company, including posing for FHM Magazine China, it is uncertain to whether or not she will return. She has since asked to be released from her contract, asking for it to be annulled. Many in the public feel that she will be very hard to replace if it comes to it, but it is hoped that she will indeed return. She has since been actively working in between China and Taiwan production companies commonly leading strong female roles such as a beautiful martial artist or cop in TV and movies.
