The invention relates to a hot-rolled steel wire rod for a large bridge cable rope zinc-plated steel wire over the 2000 MPa level. Chemical components of the steel wire rod comprise, by weight percentage, 0.90-1.10% of C, 0.20-0.60% of Si, 0.30-0.90% of Mn, smaller than or equal to 0.010% of P, smaller than or equal to 0.005% of S, 0.10-0.40% of Cr, 0.010-0.070% of Al, 0.02-0.15% of V, smaller than or equal to 0.05% of Cu, 20-40 ppm of Ca, 20-90 ppm of N and the balance Fe and inevitable residual elements. The content of sorbite texture of the steel wire rod is larger than or equal to 95%. Thethrough ring range of the tensile strength is smaller than or equal to 70 MPa (uniformity). After the steel wire rod is subjected to drawing and zinc plating, the tensile strength of the zinc-platedsteel wire is larger than or equal to 2000 MPa, and the number of torsions is larger than or equal to 12. According to the technical flow of the steel wire rod, pretreatment of molten iron is carriedout, steel is smelted through a converter or an electric furnace, LF refining is carried out, RH degassing treatment is carried out, continuous casting of 390*510 cogged ingot is carried out, a blankis reheated, the blank is rolled, the surface of an intermediate billet is subjected to finishing, the intermediate billet is reheated, the intermediate billet is rolled, the steel wire rod is subjected to EDC water bath toughening treatment, and the steel wire rod is collected and packed.
