[編輯] 個人生活
[編輯] 情感
章子怡在拍攝了電影《我的父親母親》之後，傳出一些她和導演張藝謀的緋聞[3]。香港、台灣的媒體曾經有一段時間報道她和武打明星成龍的關系不同尋常，其原因是《尖峰時刻2》的拍攝中，在成龍慶祝生日的PARTY上，被拍到親吻成龍面頰的照片。[4]

很長一段時期，章子怡和香港富商霍英東的孫子霍啟山出雙入對。

2007年1月，章子怡和41歲的新男友——以色列富翁阿維夫·尼沃在紐約觀看一場NBA比賽時被拍到倆人間的親密舉止。之後他們又一起出席了在洛杉磯舉辦的奧斯卡頒獎儀式。阿維夫·尼沃是時代華納公司的重要股東，也是威斯汀公司的投資者[5][6]。2009年初，章子怡與男友在海灘的私生活被記者偷拍。同年二月，章子怡屢屢傳出與Vivi Nevo分手之說，當大多媒體認為這是為新電影上映前做的無聊炒作時，日前港媒從章子怡身邊的一位知情人處獲悉，兩人分手事件並非炒作，而是屬實，原本定下今年三月完婚卻因婚前財產分配不均而導致最終分手。

[編輯] 英語水平
章子怡在2003年的一次采訪中表示，她每天會收到越來越多的美國影迷的來信，所以開始努力學習英語。美國版的《英雄》DVD後面的附帶的紀錄片還有章子怡念英語的鏡頭。後來拍攝的《藝伎回憶錄》中，章子怡所飾演的角色所有的對白均為英語。

為了配好《藝伎回憶錄》中藝伎，章子怡大量反復地聽並且復述她從電視廣告、音樂唱片中聽到的英語。她那時還聽過阿姆的歌曲，而這些歌曲意料之中地讓章子怡變得非常難堪：「我不知道阿姆在說什麼，所以我把聽到的寫下來，反反覆覆地復述歌詞。但是後來我才知道那些歌詞是多麼的粗俗。」[來源請求]

在美國播出的電視采訪中，她可以和記者用英語交流，但詞彙量顯得不足。

完成英文對白的《藝伎回憶錄》後，她表示已對用第二語言演戲不再膽怯，2007年為新版忍者神龜《TMNT》中的女忍者角色Karai配音，並繼續拍攝英文對白的《The horsemen》和《沙漠戰士》。

[編輯] 謠言
在一些中文媒體上有2002年「章子怡入選《男人幫》雜志全球十大醜女之一」的新聞[7][8]。但在英文媒體中只能找到FHM2002年列出全球女人最丑的十個國家[9]，包括阿富汗、英國、德國、美國、中國等。與此同時十個女人最美的國家是美國、瑞典等，其中有幾個國家在兩個表上都有名，如美國、英國、法國等，可見只是游戲之作。在英文媒體中並無「十大醜女」之說。

[編輯] 孟小冬傳
在還未拍攝電影《梅蘭芳》時，章子怡就有意籌劃《孟小冬傳》，而後收到陳凱歌導演的邀請而參演《梅蘭芳》，但章子怡表示，孟小冬的一生是很豐富的，所以值得拍攝，但是近期內無法完成。自己近期的夢想是把孟小冬搬上大熒幕，而且希望與陳凱歌導演共同完成。

Ziyi Zhang (Chinese: 章子怡, pinyin: Zhāng Zǐyí; Wade-Giles: Chang Tzu-yi; born February 9, 1979) is a Chinese film actress and singer. Zhang is coined by the media as one of the Four Young Dan actresses (四大花旦) in the Film Instry in China, along with Zhao Wei, Xu Jinglei, and Zhou Xun.[1] With a string of Chinese and international hits to her name, she has worked with renowned directors such as Zhang Yimou, Ang Lee, Wong Kar-Wai, Chen Kaige, Tsui Hark, Lou Ye, Seijun Suzuki, Feng Xiaogang and Rob Marshall.

Early life
Zhang was born and raised in Beijing, China. She was the daughter of Zhang Yuanxiao, an economist, and Li Zhousheng, a kindergarten teacher.[2][3] Zhang joined the Beijing Dance Academy at the age of 11. When Zhang's parents suggested she attend the school, she was skeptical. While at this boarding school, she noticed how catty the other girls were while competing for status amongst the teachers. Zhang disliked the attitudes of peers and teachers, so much that, on one occasion, she ran away from the school.[3]

In 1994, Zhang entered China's prestigious Central Academy of Drama (regarded as the top acting college in China) at the age of 15.

[edit] Career
At the age of 19, Zhang was offered her first role in Zhang Yimou's The Road Home, which won the Silver Bear award in the 2000 Berlin Film Festival.

Zhang further rose to fame e to her role as the headstrong Jen (Chinese version: Yu Jiao Long) in the phenomenally successful Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, for which she won several awards in the West, such as Chicago Film Critics Association Awards, Toronto Film Critics Association Awards and Independent Spirit Awards. Zhang's first appearance in an American movie was in Rush Hour 2, but because she didn't speak English at the time, Jackie Chan had to interpret everything the director said to her. In the movie, her character's name, "Hu Li," is translated from Mandarin Chinese to "Fox".

Zhang then appeared in Hero, with her early mentor Zhang Yimou, which was a huge success in the English-speaking world and nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe award. Her next film was the avant-garde drama Purple Butterfly by Lou Ye, which competed at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival. Zhang went back to the martial arts genre with House of Flying Daggers (十面埋伏), which earned her a Best Actress nomination from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts.

In 2046, directed by Wong Kar-wai, starring many of the best-known Chinese actors and actresses, Zhang was the female lead and won the Hong Kong Film Critics' Best Actress Award and the Hong Kong Film Academy's Best Actress Award.

Showing her whimsical musical tap-dancing side, Zhang starred in Princess Raccoon, directed by Japanese legend Seijun Suzuki, who was honored at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival.

In 2005, Zhang landed the lead role of Sayuri in the film adaptation of the international bestseller Memoirs of a Geisha. There was a slight controversy in Japan about a Chinese woman portraying a Japanese Geisha. For the film, she reunited with her 2046 co-star Gong Li and with her Crouching Tiger co-star Michelle Yeoh. For the role, Zhang received a 2006 Golden Globe Award nomination, a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination and a BAFTA nomination.

Zhang has also been known to sing, and was featured on the House of Flying Daggers soundtrack with her own musical rendition of the ancient Chinese poem, Jia Rén Qu (佳人曲, The Beauty Song). The song was also featured in two scenes in the film.

On June 27, 2005, it was announced that Zhang had accepted an invitation to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), placing her among the ranks of those able to vote on the Academy Awards.[4]

In May 2006, Zhang became the youngest member to sit on the jury of the Cannes Film Festival. In the fall of 2006, Zhang played Empress Wan in The Banquet (Yè Yàn 夜宴), a film set in the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang provided the voice of Karai in the TMNT movie that was released on March 23, 2007. She later starred in Forever Enthralled (Mei Lanfang) (2008) and appeared in The Horsemen (2009) with Dennis Quaid.

Ziyi Zhang was recently announced that she wil be the main character in "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan". At the same time, she will also be the procer for this movie.

[edit] Ambassadorship
Zhang is the face of Maybelline, Garnier and Shangri-la Hotel and Resort Group. She is also a Global Ambassador for the Special Olympics and a spokesperson for "Save the Children," a foster-home program in China.

[edit] Personal life
Soon after Zhang's debut in Zhang Yimou's The Road Home, rumors arose regarding a possible affair between the actress and the older director. Zhang Yimou was previously involved in an extramarital affair with actress Gong Li, whom he similarly debuted and with whom Zhang Ziyi was quickly compared. However, no relationship between the two has been confirmed.[5]

Hong Kong and Taiwanese media have often pushed at ties between Zhang and co-star Jackie Chan.[6] This was fueled in part by photos that emerged of the pair ring celebrations of Chan's birthday on the set of Rush Hour 2.

Zhang for a while was publicly linked with Fok Kai-shan, grandson of Hong Kong business tycoon Henry Fok.

In the July 2006 issue of Interview Magazine, Zhang Ziyi spoke of her movies' contents and being careful about the roles she takes on, especially in Hollywood.

「 Yes. Otherwise I could have done a lot of Hollywood movies. After Crouching Tiger I got a lot of offers, but I turned them down because they were all victim roles--poor girls sold to America to be a wife or whatever. I know I have the ability to go deeper, to take on more original roles than that. That's why I really appreciated Geisha, because it allowed us to show the world what kind of actors we are and what kind of characters we can play--not just action, kick-ass parts.[7] 」

She stated in an early interview that if she had not become an actress, she would have liked to have been a kindergarten teacher, as she "...love[s] children!"

In January 2007, Zhang was spotted holding hands and kissing her new boyfriend at a New York basketball game. The man was identified as Israeli multi-millionaire and venture capitalist, Vivi Nevo. The two were again seen together at an Oscar party in Los Angeles. Nevo, who has previously been tied to model Kate Moss, is a major shareholder in Time Warner and an early backer of The Weinstein Company with whom Zhang is purported to have a multi-film deal. Zhang Ziyi and Nevo are currently engaged.[8][9]

[edit] Other information
Of the characters making up her name, Zhāng (章) is her surname (not to be confused with the more common Zhāng 張 which is a homonym but written with a different character), Zǐ (子) means 'child' or 'esteemed person', and Yí (怡) means 'joy' or 'happiness'. She has appeared in English language films under the name Ziyi Zhang. In an interview, she stated that the name change was her publicist's idea of a way to appeal to Western audiences.

⑥ 今天無意間看了看章子怡演的《最愛》預告片，英文名譯作till death do us part不是應該是do us apart 嗎

這句話的意思是「直到死亡將彼此分開」比如結婚誓言里就有這句。part是分開的意思這里作動詞，do part這里用作虛擬語氣 do助動詞，us是part的賓語，所以做倒裝句，語法上比較特殊。

詞彙詳解：

part

二、釋義

n、部分;片段;一點;成員;成分。
