"I'm not one of those who became an overnight sensation. But thanks to years of struggle and striving, I could polish my acting skills," he says.

As for the future, Wang says that for a country that produces more than 600 movies and approximately 16,500 episodes of TV series every year, China's showbiz industry will evolve to a world-class level soon.

He says that though the China's movie market was lackluster last year, the huge population of moviegoers gives it the potential to develop the industry in a better way.

"I believe we will have productions as good as the top ones in Europe and the United States in a few years," he says.

Speaking about his plans, Wang says that he will make time to learn English.

"I'm a slow learner ... But I think if my English is better, I will have more chances to work in international productions."
