Zheng joined Charlton Athletic on loan from Chinese Super League and FA Cup champions Shandong Luneng last week.
He told Xinhua: "I will let the coaches there know that Chinese players can also play good football".
"As China's best footballer, I know that I could spend a lot of time on the bench. I am ready to play as a substitute at first, but that will not be enough. I have only one goal there, which is to play more games. I will not let the fans down.
"I think they were more impressed with my organizing ability when I was given a trial last November," Zheng said. "They have very good strikers but are weak in the midfield. I am sure I can do it well in that place."
Zheng said Sun Jihai has been his idol since he joined Manchester City four and a half years ago.
"Seeing Sun play in the English premier league, I made up my mind that one day I would also go there. Now joining Charlton Athletic is a dream come true," Zheng said.
