JD.com founder Richard Liu Qiangdong's wife Zhang Zetian launched her personal podcast on Monday, where she invited Hong Kong actress Carina Lau Ka-ling for a conversation in the first episode.

It was held at Lau's home where she revealed that her residence was designed and decorated with the help of the late businessman David Tang Wing-cheung, and is filled with exclusive memories of friends such as Leslie Cheung.

Despite never stepping into showbiz, Zhang was a bona fide Internet celebrity in China even before she became the wife of one of China's richest self-made men.

A photo of her holding a bubble tea, dressed in a high school uniform with her hair tied in a ponytail, went viral in 2009. The reason was simple. Her sweet, innocent good looks.

Then just a high school student in Nanjing Foreign Language School in Jiangsu, she was quickly propelled to the apex of Internet fame, with netizens praising her as an otherworldly beauty.
