Around 3 a.m. on May 27, popular Mainland Chinese actor Li Yifeng (æŽæ˜“å³°) crashed his Lamborghini in a car accident in Beijing. Although the 7 million RMB Lamborghini was severely damaged, fans were glad that the handsome 29-year-old’s face escaped injuries: â€œAs long as his face is saved, that’s fine.â€

 

The temporary vehicle license of Yifeng’s Lamborghini had already expired before the accident occurred. Rumors quickly spread that Yifeng may have been drunk and was speeding. After police arrived on the scene, Yifeng did not take a breathalyzer test to determine if he was driving under the influence of alcohol. Yifeng will be fined 200 RMB and his license will be deducted 12 points for the accident.

 

Furthermore, reports claimed that Yifeng was driving to meet rumored flame, Yang Mi (楊冪). The pair were romantically linked together after filming drama Legend of the Ancient Sword <å¤åŠå¥‡è­š> and movie Fall in Love Like a Star <怦然星動> even though Yang Mi is a married woman.

 

Yifeng’s studio issued a press statement to address the rumors. Acknowledging that his temporary vehicle license had expired, Yifeng apologized for violating traffic laws. He also clarified that he was driving to his parents’ home to retrieve his passport at the time.

 

After the accident, Yifeng appeared at the Beijing airport this morning, flying to Morocco to film a brand endorsement ad. Wearing sunglasses and sporting a wide smile, Yifeng’s spirits were not dampened by the car accident.

 

Media Criticizes Li Yifeng’s Irresponsibility

 

After filming 2013’s Legend of Ancient Sword, Li Yifeng’s popularity rose quickly. Yifeng placed ninth on the 2015 Forbes China Celebrity List, earning 69 million RMB last year. While fans dismissed Yifeng’s car accident as a minor incident and was glad their “Male God’s†face remained unharmed, the media criticized Yifeng for his irresponsibility.

 

If Yifeng’s temporary vehicle license had already expired, why did he not simply take a taxi? Did his celebrity status make him think it was okay to speed through a restricted area? Furthermore, why did he immediately leave China right after the accident occurred?

 

As a popular celebrity, Yifeng was asked to reflect on his own actions and the impact he may have on millions of fans. Due to Yifeng’s poor awareness of traffic laws, Chinese news outlet Huanqiu commented, “Perhaps his face was saved, but he left behind a pile of broken pieces on the ground.â€
