In March 2019, Zheng was recruited by Disney to sing the Mandarin version of the theme song "Baby Mine" for the fantasy adventure film Dumbo.[11] In August, Zheng acted in a stage play, The Poetic Age, for the first time, and was awarded the Best New Talent in Lead Roles of the 30th Shanghai Magnolia Stage Awards.[12] And since 2019, he has performed various leading roles in stage plays, including Emperor Guangxu in Deling and Cixi (2019 co-production of Tianjin People's Art Theatre and Hong Kong Repertory Theatre), Eben Cabot in Desire Under the Elms (2021 production of Beijing People's Art Theatre), and Frankenstein/Creature in Frankenstein (Chinese adaptation of 2011 British National Theatre production).[13]
