Jing made his feature film debut in the Chinese romance film Hot Summer Days (2010),[6] which won him a Best New Actor award at the Beijing College Student Film Festival.[7] Since then, he has developed a passion for acting and started to focus on acting and refining skills by exploring different genres of film.[8] One of his earlier notable roles is Wang Can in the romance film Up in the Wind (2013) where he played a rich second generation heir who wants to find meaning in life.[9]
