She is Gao Yanan, a serious and tender female forensic doctor in "White Night Pursuit"; she is Teacher Lin who follows the rules of seduction to students in "Suddenly This Summer"; she is Zhao Jiaqi, a photographer who sees through the truth of marriage lies at a glance in "White Moonlight"; she is the fashionable and independent editor in "Dress"; and Qin Chujiu, a small actor in North Drift with star dreams in "Destiny Express".
She is Lu Xiaolin, she always excavates the multi-faceted nature of human nature in different roles, and has a surprising grasp and interpretation of different roles, which can be called "female harvester in the workplace".
For the audience, what roles she is expected to challenge in her new works has become the most fascinating place for her. And this time, in "The Silent Truth", with her delicate and moving interpretation, she once again presented the image of a professional woman with unique charm.

Instead of deliberately reading the original novel, I wrote a biography of the character
"The Silent Truth" is adapted from Zijin Chen's novel "The Long Night Is Difficult to See", which attracted extensive discussion from everyone as early as the beginning of the project, and Lu Xiaolin received this script in May last year, and she spent a day to read the script, "After reading it, I was very angry, how can there be such a bad person, if you become a policeman, you must arrest them." In the process of reading the script, Lu Xiaolin liked the role of Ren Team, and while watching it, she made up the background of some characters, so Lu Xiaolin began to "experience" the role of "criminal police" that she had never played before.
Because "Ren Yueting" is a new role in the TV series, Lu Xiaolin did not deliberately read the original novel. Instead, write a biography of the character, lay a good foundation, fill in the background, and find some behavioral basis.
In the play, Ren Yueting's father is also a criminal policeman, because the work neglects to take care of the family and her daughter, and finally sacrificed in the workplace, but Ren Yueting finally chose the profession of criminal police.
When making a short biography of the character, Lu Xiaolin felt that it was because of her father's choice that Ren Yueting was curious and yearning for the profession of police. When she was young, she did not see her father for a long time, and in a mission, her father also left the opportunity to give birth to others, these are the obstacles that Ren Yueting can't get over, she has to see for herself what magic the profession of police has.
In terms of character details, when she was dressed, Lu Xiaolin discussed with the director that she was wearing a men's watch on her hand, "That is her father's watch, that watch has been stopped for many years, and she (Ren Yueting) does not take it to repair, she has been carrying it." In the script, it is written that her father is also a criminal policeman, who was injured when handling the case that year, leaving the opportunity to live to others. I think this watch is a thought for Ren Yueting, and it is also a legacy. Although I didn't shoot these in the scene, every day when I arrived at the scene and took this watch, I felt that I was Ren Yueting. ”
In addition, as a criminal policeman, there may be some old injuries, such as a bad waist, and when standing, you habitually fork your waist. When observing the daily life of the criminal police, Lu Xiaolin did not understand at first why the police put their hands on their belts when handling cases, and then when they arrived at the scene, they were fully armed, and they immediately understood, because their configuration was too heavy, which would ease the burden on their waists.

The "Sonorous Rose" in the Interpol Team
In most people's cognition, the profession of criminal police is still dominated by men, and it is certainly good enough to stand out from men, which has a lot of challenges for Lu Xiaolin, in the play, she must show the side of the character's wisdom and courage, not to let the eyebrows be shaved, and single-handedly pick the beams; but also to show the side of cooperating with a number of male characters step by step to find out the truth, as well as the brave and tenacious side of independent women.
"Before filming, I found friends who used to be police officers and asked them what the commonalities of female police officers were, and they told me stories about handling cases in the past, which was very touching to me and gave me a lot of inspiration. At the script level, I tried to fill in the character relationship between ren and everyone in the team, how many years I had known each other, and what we had experienced together. These are things that you have to think about often, and you will have a feeling that everyone is a comrade-in-arms on the shooting scene. ”
Ren Yueting, played by Lu Xiaolin in the play, almost broke through the consistent portrayal of women in the current workplace in previous TV dramas: she is straightforward and tenacious, and Liao Fan can be described as a "chess opponent".
What impressed Lu Xiaolin the most was an explosion scene that filmed the tail building, there was no elevator in the building, and all the staff had to climb up to the tenth floor with equipment, "I can't say anything when I climb up to the tenth floor." The scene was dirty, for the explosion effect, the building was dark, I was going to play a scene there to miss my father, and Fango gave me the best position. As a result, when the shooting came out, my face was already black, look at Fango, it was even darker..."
On the other hand, Lu Xiaolin also has to face the particularity of the identity of female criminal policemen, in a group of masters, how do women become the captain of the criminal police? There must be a very outstanding ability and charm, without a strong heart, unable to do it. Not only professional quality, as a woman, the role must also have resilience, patience and sense of humor, these are the strengths of women.
"At the same time, as a woman, she will put on a mask after staying up late and squatting, and she has to find some feminine commonalities, I believe it myself, and the audience will believe it."

If you can still play a lawyer, your dream will come true
Born in Hebei and raised in Shanghai, Lu Xiaolin has the enthusiasm and humor of northerners, while also having the delicacy of southerners. Out of love for art, I began to learn ballet from a young age, "When I was a child dancing ballet, my mother told me that when a dancer can only dance until the age of 30, the artistic career is very short, I should not consider other careers. ”
This also subtly affected her, Lu Xiaolin finally chose to embark on the road of an actor, probably since she liked to perform in front of people since she was a child, the adults let Lu Xiaolin sing and dance, she also did not refuse, the highest record danced more than a dozen times a night to sell newspaper songs.
"I just like the stage, I like to act, to be precise, I like to think about acting, those actors I like, how do they act? I like its uncertainty, when acting with different opponents, meeting good actors, playing a play, especially painful and happy. ”
In addition to acting, Lu Xiaolin's big hobby is painting, and sometimes he will paint portraits for friends or crew members around him.
"When you paint, you can be alone with yourself, and when you are acting, you can temporarily separate from the life of 'Lu Xiaolin', which is a state of emptiness." Painting is to show the work through the canvas, you don't need to see me, you can see my painting, and acting is to show the work through the actor himself. I think painting can be hidden, but performance, there is nowhere to hide. ”
However, in life, she is completely an ordinary person who is very homely, basically watching movies, watching dramas, reading books, meditating, and eating hot pot with friends. Laughing wildly when talking about hi places, she seems to be a vivid and bright girl who has always lived around you and me. "My friends say I'm an actress with no ambitions, and they worry more than I do."
When it comes to the future, Lu Xiaolin feels that he has good luck, "When I was a child, I watched a lot of TVB dramas, forensics, police, etc. I wanted to act, and I basically acted out everything I wanted to act. If you can still play a lawyer, your dream will come true. ”
This special exchange allows us to see that Lu Xiaolin will also have some character characteristics. But she is neither Gao Yanan, nor Zhao Jiaqi or Ren Yueting, but a more gentle and meticulous person, exuding an aura of freedom.
Therefore, compared to the roles she has already made the audience love, we are more looking forward to her next performance, and we hope that she can become an actress in her ideal state.
