On October 21, some netizens posted a clip of a man playing the violin on the overpass. In the video, the street performer plays the classic song "Midnight Serenade", he wears a duck tongue hat, a mask, and is simply dressed, but resembles the actor Liu Changsheng.
The netizen identified this person as Liu Changsheng and placed his own comments, triggering discussions among netizens about making a living and pursuing art, as well as lamenting the difficult situation of the older generation of artists.
As early as January this year, there were many netizens in the same area to post "Liu Changsheng selling art" clips, but the men in the video are not wearing masks, you can clearly see that there is a difference between looks and Liu Changsheng.
Because Liu Changsheng himself did not come forward to clarify, there are still netizens who posted articles lamenting that Liu Changsheng has no drama to auction to attract onlookers. Recently, Liu Changsheng's son, Liu Ting, forwarded his reply, saying that his father Liu Changsheng had not traveled to the region, that he and he had been living in Beijing, and that his father had recently been filming movies.
Compared with Liu Changsheng, his son Liu Ting's popularity is slightly lower. Liu Ting is also an actor and a child star, who has participated in many high-profile and high-rating TV series such as "Ma Yongzhen", "Huan Zhuge Ge 2", "Kangxi Dynasty" and so on.
After graduation, Liu Ting is still engaged in acting work. In the hit drama "Crane And Hua Ting", he played the prince's playmate and escort "You Ming", and his acting strength was affirmed.
Although Neither Liu Changsheng nor Liu Ting disclosed the father-son relationship in their profiles, and there were few interviews and variety show recordings, Liu Ting congratulated Father's Day on social accounts as early as 2012, and repeatedly forwarded his father's participation in film and television dramas on social accounts.
Although Liu Ting's public popularity is not as good as his father, he is also constantly joking. In 2016, Liu Ting's film "The Heartless" was released, and he posted photos of Liu Changsheng supporting the premiere, and two other women were photographed in the group photo, suspected of being a family of four.
For the profession of actor, Liu Ting is obviously very pursuing, and in an interview, he revealed that he took the artist as the development goal. The same is true of his father, Liu Changsheng, although he rarely makes a public voice, but the classic role is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Liu Changsheng was born in a family of opera, or the first graduate of the Xiqu Academy, and only began to participate in film and television dramas at the age of 33, and has been 31 years. His most classic role is Su Youpeng's version of "Yi Tian Slaughter Dragon Chronicle" of "Green Wing Bat King Wei Yi Smile", in addition to the "Old Man of Tianji" in "Little Li Flying Knife", "Ghost Grandpa" in "Tianya Mingyue Knife" and so on.
In recent years, Liu Changsheng has also made occasional cameo appearances in dramas, playing the five-veined leader "Liu Yiming" in "Antiques Bureau Central Bureau", in which he looks full of grandeur, but has not produced any works since then.
Many actors of the older generation are active in the play and often appear on social platforms, while Liu Changsheng is too low-key. However, Liu Ting revealed that his father is still participating in the movie, and I believe that Liu Changsheng did not stop filming, but only reduced the workload and focused more on enjoying his old age.
