Zanilia, who plays a hearing-impaired person in the new movie, "Article 20", attracted netizens' attention when she used her newly learned skill to introduce herself and asked fans to go watch the movie.

She also received praise from Xiaoshi, a hearing-impaired social media influencer, who stated that Zanilia did very well and that she was happy that the actress played the role.
