On March 4, the Youth Work Committee of the China Television Drama Production Industry Association (hereinafter referred to as the “Youth Work Committee”) issued a “Risk Warning on Actors with Bad Records in Micro-Short Dramas”.
The document mentioned that the negative public opinion about the short play actor He Moumou recently caused widespread public discussion and caused adverse social impact. In this regard, the Youth Workers Committee issued several risk warnings:
1. Boycott bad actors. The film producers should resolutely boycott bad artists who have committed illegal and criminal acts or serious immoral and deviant behaviors.
2. Strengthen the background check of actors. The film company should conduct necessary background checks before selecting actors and be cautious when cooperating with actors who pose risks.
3. Make a complaint. For actors who violate laws and regulations, or act unethically, you can file a complaint with the Youth Workers Committee after obtaining solid evidence. The Youth Workers Committee will verify the facts and disclose them to the public and issue a risk warning.
The Youth Workers Committee also pointed out that short drama actors should take "He Moumou" as an example, strive to improve their legal awareness, moral qualities and professional level, establish correct values and artistic views, consciously resist bad practices, and strive to become literary and artistic workers with both moral integrity and artistic talent.

It is reported that the "He Moumou" mentioned in the document of the Youth Workers Committee is the popular actor He Jianqi in the short drama circle.
He Jianqi, born in Zhaoqing, Guangdong in 1995, worked as a high-speed rail ticket seller before entering the entertainment industry. In 2023, he played the loyal and affectionate boss Jiang Zhuo in the vertical screen short drama "My Monthly Salary as a Stand-in" and attracted attention. He later starred in short dramas such as "Flowers Like Dreams", "Three Marriages to the Demon King", and "Deep Love Seduction: Dawn Love Song", and gained high popularity with his bossy roles and handsome and cool characteristics. In August 2024, he won the Best Actor Award at the First National Micro-Short Drama Character Ceremony.
As one of the top actors in the short drama industry, He Jianqi has been offered many short dramas. He has also participated in the variety show "Hello Saturday", topped the list of popular drama stars in "On Air! Short Drama Season", shot the cover of a fashion magazine, and starred in a horizontal screen long drama... He is actively moving towards the mainstream performing arts track.

On March 3, a netizen posted a post exposing an emotional dispute with He Jianqi. The account claimed to be the "big sister" in He Jianqi's live broadcast room, and posted a record of nearly 150,000 yuan in live broadcast rewards and photos as evidence. The revelation sparked heated discussions among netizens and became a hot search. He Jianqi and his studio did not respond to this, but this incident has already affected his future development.
Previously, Yu Zheng officially announced that He Jianqi would guest star in the new drama "Yu Ming Cha Gu" starring Hou Minghao and Guli Nazha. As soon as the rumor of "collapse" came out, "Yu Ming Cha Gu" quickly made a cut.
The screenwriter of the drama, Yu Zheng, first denied the rumor that He Jianqi was not the second male lead as rumored, but only a "very small role", and then replied to netizens that the role had been changed. He also added: "Someone told me about this before, and I specifically consulted with Xiao He after dinner. He assured me that it was not the case, so I believed it, but because of fear, I gave him a very small role. If such news is not clarified today, the actors will feel insecure and the platform will be worried. We must ensure that the series starts smoothly." Yu Zheng also revealed that all the actors will be checked.

It is still unknown whether He Jianqi's other upcoming works such as "Welcome the Phoenix" will be affected.
With the rapid development of the micro-short drama industry, many micro-short drama actors have successfully "made it to the table" by accepting advertisements, appearing in variety shows, and filming long dramas. In the process of relevant departments rectifying the chaos in the industry and promoting micro-short dramas to be "fine", higher requirements have been put forward for the acting skills and artistic ethics of micro-short drama actors. Just as netizens expect, "both the five senses and the three views".
