Zang Jialiang (Chinese: 臧嘉亮; pinyin: Záng Jiāliàng; born January 12, 1988 in Harbin, Heilongjiang[1]) is an internationally elite curler who trains out of Harbin, China.[2]
He made his world championship debut at the 2008 Grand Forks World Championships. Team China achieved their best result to date.

In the 3 vs. 4 Playoff match, they lost to Team Norway, and again in the Bronze Medal Match.
Team China was less successful at the 2009 Moncton World Championships, where it placed ninth overall.
