After being a mother for two years, actress Zhang Ziyi has found her new interest outside the big screen.

In a recent Beijing event to promote a newly launched diaper brand, Zhang announced her new title as its "CEO" (chief experience officer) to participate in the production's research and development.

"I had Xingxing (her daughter) at the age of 36. She makes me feel everything I've done is meaningful. And I hope I can give everything to her," says Zhang, one of the best-known Chinese stars in the West.

Zhang even says now she feels her favorite job would be as a kindergarten teacher.

"Acting should my second option. I want to know the children's world, to think from their perspectives and to understand the world in their way," says Zhang, who married rock singer Wang Feng in 2015.

Zhang even reveals she once personally wore some diapers to test their softness and breathability.
