Quỳnh ChiOn April 27, Chinese media reported that Kris Wu is facing allegations of tax evasion amounting to 30 million CNY (over 107 billion VND). Kris Wu's mother is also said to be involved and may face imprisonment like her son.
The Chinese actor has been in custody since 2021 and was sentenced to 13 years in prison for rape and organizing group orgies. The former idol star of the Chinese entertainment industry will be deported from China upon completion of his sentence.
According to lawyers, facing further charges could prolong Kris Wu's time in prison. Specifically, if the allegations of tax evasion against Kris Wu are proven, the actor will face an extended prison term. The court will consolidate the verdicts and deduct the time already served.
Kris Wu has been transferred to the Beijing-based Changping Temporary Detention Center to await trial on the new charges. The latest information about Kris Wu has also brought attention to Du Meizhu, his ex-girlfriend and the person who revealed his crimes in 2021.
According to Sina, Du Meizhu has been completely silent for 2 months. Previously, she frequently updated her social media profiles. Her mysterious disappearance has sparked rumors related to her and Kris Wu's new lawsuit.
Du Meizhu (born in 2002) was a student at the Communication University of China. She stands at 1.7m tall, has a graceful face, and a slender figure.
Aside from studying and engaging in social media activities, Du Meizhu also works as a photo model and regularly livestreams for sales. According to Sohu, Du Meizhu was born into a wealthy family, but her parents divorced early, so she became independent at a young age.
In July 2021, Du Meizhu shocked the entire Chinese entertainment industry by accusing Kris Wu of drugging and sexually assaulting her.
The beauty born in 2002 also exposed the real life of the idol star and his habit of luring underage girls with promises of opportunities in the entertainment industry.
After Du Meizhu's revelations, many other girls unexpectedly spoke out, admitting to being victims of Kris Wu.
The famous Chinese actor and singer was investigated and subsequently sentenced to 13 years in prison. He was also fined $83.7 million USD for tax evasion in 2021.
The scandal has completely destroyed Kris Wu's career in China. However, Du Meizhu has not found peace either. She was attacked by Kris Wu's fans on social media. The beauty had to deactivate her social media accounts for a period and seek psychological treatment.
When Kris Wu was sentenced to 13 years in prison, Du Meizhu wrote on her social media, "The long-awaited thing has finally arrived." She also shared a letter, detailing her experiences when speaking out against Kris Wu.
The beauty wrote: "After reporting, I worked with the police to investigate for 2 months. Due to the confidentiality of the case, I did not answer related questions.
After the incident, I have matured, I want to apologize for the overly aggressive and naive words I used to say in the past. I am not the heroine as you praised. I am just an ordinary person who was a little brave and spoke the truth under pressure."
At the end of 2021, Du Meizhu announced that she was quitting her studies at the university due to psychological pressure and depression. She also moved from Beijing (China) to Shanghai (China) to start a new life. The beauty plans to study at another university.
A source revealed that Du Meizhu underwent dental surgery (braces), actively lost weight, learned to dance to improve her appearance. The beauty had shared plans to enter the Chinese showbiz industry.
In recent years, Du Meizhu has maintained a normal life. She continues to work as a photo model, sell products online, and has close relationships with some figures in the entertainment industry. However, in the past 2 years, she has become more private.
