Biography

Both of Wu Jing's parents Wu Fuhai and Pan Wenzheng were in the People's Liberation Army when she was born near the end of the Chinese Civil War. Wu Jing grew up in Shanghai, and after graduating from Nanyang Model High School in the Cultural Revolution, was "sent-down" to work in Yuyao and later Dafeng County. Despite passing all qualification tests Wu was repeatedly denied entry to art troupes only because her parents were labeled "Capitalist roaders" during the time. It wasn't until 1975 that she landed a supporting role in the propaganda film Breaking with Old Ideas. She became an affiliated actress with the Shanghai Film Studio only in 1984.
In May 2013, Wu Jing was voted one of the 9 vice-chairpeople of the Shanghai Film Association.
