Ziyi Says "Happy Chinese New Year

 

With the Chinese Spring Festival just around the corner, actress Zhang Ziyi poses with an ox toy and sends her best wishes out to fans through her official website.

"Too many stories happened in the past year. Some are heartbreaking, some are soul-stirring, some deeply touching, and some hard to forget," she wrote Thursday on helloziyi.com, which underwent a facelift the same day.

"The numerous memories helped us learn to appreciate, and made us stronger, more beautiful and prouder."

"Wish all the kind-hearted people in the world a happy Chinese New Year!"

The "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" star was actively involved in promoting the Beijing Olympics and fundraising for victims of the deadly Sichuan earthquake in 2008.
