Former Olympic Champion Gymnast Liu Xuan has signed with Hong Kong's TVB network, the Chengdu Evening News has reported.
"We signed the contract two months ago," Liu Xuan told the newspaper, "and after that the first job I got was judging the Miss Hong Kong pageant."
TVB is busy preparing a sports-themed show for her. Releasing albums and starring in films are also part of her work plan, Liu revealed.
Liu Xuan, 30, won China's first Olympic gymnastics gold medal on the balance beam and China's first all round medal in Sydney in 2000.
In recent years, she's been actively involved in the showbiz industry, appearing frequently on both big and small screens as a TV hostess, actress and singer.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, she worked for TVB as its on-site gymnastics reporter.
