LayarHijau – Han Yutong and Zeng Hui are well-known celebrity partners in the Chinese short drama industry. They have starred together in several popular series, including Just to Possess You and Surrender to Her, both released in 2025. Their popularity is driven not only by their acting skills but also by their strong on-screen chemistry, making them one of the most talked-about couples among short drama fans.
According to industry information, Zeng Hui’s income mainly comes from three sources. First, drama shooting fees, with a daily rate of around ¥22,000 (approximately $3,080) and earnings per production ranging from ¥176,000 to ¥220,000 (approximately $24,650 – $30,885). If an actor takes on 15–20 projects per year, the theoretical annual income would be ¥2.64 million to ¥4.4 million (approximately $370,000 – $615,000), although the actual workload may be reduced by 30%–50%.

Second, CP (Couple Pairing) projects, where working with Han Yutong can bring a daily package of ¥60,000 (approximately $8,300). Taking on 10 couple drama projects a year could add over ¥1 million (approximately $138,000) to their annual income.
Third, profit sharing from popular dramas, which can reach 5%–8% of total views. For example, monthly profit from the drama The Day I Was Released from Prison exceeded ¥1 million (approximately $138,000), and if view counts surpass 100 million, profit sharing could reach ¥5 million (approximately $690,000).
Meanwhile, Han Yutong’s earnings have not been publicly disclosed. As Zeng Hui’s partner and co-star in many short dramas, her income likely follows a similar model, combining drama shooting fees and profit sharing from popular projects. However, without official data, exact figures are unknown, so any estimates are illustrative based on general practices in the Chinese short drama industry.
Overall, Zeng Hui’s estimated annual income could reach ¥10 million to ¥15 million (approximately $1.38 million – $2.07 million). While this does not approach ¥100 million, it reflects their success in the short drama industry. The combination of drama shooting fees, couple projects, and profit sharing from popular series contributes significantly to Zeng Hui’s income and likely to Han Yutong’s as well. With their popularity continuing to grow, their earnings are expected to increase in the future.
