Huang Xiaoming, who worked with Zhu Yuanyuan on the film "City Builders", posted on Weibo, "Ah! I can't believe it! My chest is blocked. A while ago, we were still building Yuehai together, dreaming together, and fighting side by side. Sister Yuanyuan has always been strong and optimistic in the group. She didn't even tell us about cancer. She always faced everything with a smile! Sister Yuanyuan is so good and kind. She is the pride of us Qingdao people and our role model forever! Dear sister Yuanyuan, we will always love you and miss you!"
