Recently, the hit broadcast of a costume drama "Walking with the Phoenix" made the 36-year-old Lin Gengxin once again become the focus of the audience's hearts. His tacit cooperation with Zhao Liying not only feasted the audience's eyes, but also made people look forward to this pair of "CPs".
However, looking back on the first time the two collaborated on "The Legend of Chu Qiao", Lin Gengxin's attitude towards Zhao Liying is completely different, and it can even be said to be laughable.
In 2016, when Lin Gengxin and Zhao Liying collaborated on "The Legend of Chu Qiao" for the first time, his attitude towards Zhao Liying still had some misunderstandings and incomprehensions.
At the opening ceremony of "The Legend of Chu Qiao", Lin Gengxin admitted that he didn't understand Zhao Liying very well at that time, and even didn't want to pay attention to her a little. It turned out that during the filming process, in order to make the rival scenes more brilliant, Zhao Liying not only often asked Lin Gengxin to discuss the script, but also specially bought the original novel for him and told him to read it after reading.
And Lin Gengxin believes that since the director has given the script, just act according to the script, so he feels a little puzzled and bored with Zhao Liying's "persistence".
However, as time passed, Lin Gengxin gradually realized Zhao Liying's seriousness and dedication. He found that Zhao Liying was not only responsible for her own scenes during the filming process, but also cared very much about other people's scenes.
Lin Gengxin recalled: "We were very tired after filming our own scenes, but she was still helping others with scripts sometimes.
Seeing her like this, I really admire her from the bottom of my heart!" From being unaccustomed to Zhao Liying's "stubbornness", to admiring her seriousness, to feeling sorry for her hardships, Lin Gengxin's attitude towards Zhao Liying has undergone a huge change.
It is precisely because of the tacit cooperation and hard work of the two that "The Legend of Chu Qiao" became a "big hit" after it was launched in 2017. Not only are the fighting scenes impressive, but Lin Gengxin and Zhao Liying's "Xingyue CP" was also warmly welcomed by the audience.
Many viewers still remember the scene when Xing'er hugged Yu Wenyue and cried on the surface of the lake, and felt uneasy about "Yu Wenyue" sinking to the bottom of the lake.
In 2024, when Lin Gengxin and Zhao Liying collaborate again to shoot "Walking with the Phoenix", the tacit understanding between the two has reached a new height. In the behind-the-scenes footage, there is a scene where Lin is updated and "finished" that is impressive.
At that time, everyone was celebrating Lin Gengxin, and there was laughter and laughter, but Lin Gengxin hid his face and cried alone. Zhao Liying couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene, but she didn't expect it to make Lin Gengxin cry. Some netizens ridiculed: "At this moment, Lin Gengxin really cried as a 'forest dog'." ”
Regarding why he cried so "broken", Lin Gengxin revealed the reason in an interview. He said that when filming "Walking with the Phoenix", he filmed from the scorching summer to the late autumn, from Hengdian to Xiangshan to Lishui, and spent a few months with everyone.
Suddenly, it was finished, which made him feel a little lost and reluctant. He thought that the companions who had been with him for a few months might not have crossed paths in the future, let alone meet again in some years and months, and since then they would become passers-by in his life, this feeling was really complicated.
Seeing Lin Gengxin, who cried into a "dog" at the end, the audience may be able to understand why the drama "Walking with the Phoenix" has become a "big hit" again.
Not only because of the superb acting skills of the male and female protagonists and the tacit understanding of the "two pairs", but more importantly, they really regard each other as very important friends in their lives during the filming process, so they will show their truest side when they leave.
In addition to his acting skills and feelings, Lin Gengxin is appreciated by Zhao Liying because of his own character and character. Zhao Liying once said that Lin Gengxin is a "treasure" big boy, although he seems to be a big man on the surface, he is actually very careful and considerate.
For example, he often tells jokes to everyone on the set to make everyone happy, he will also take care of his partner's feelings, comfort and support Zhao Liying when she is sad, and he will also cook, dub, sing and dance and other skills to show his versatile and humorous side.
In general, the reason why Lin Gengxin has been able to cooperate with Zhao Liying many times is not only because of his acting skills and popularity, but more importantly, his character and character have won Zhao Liying's recognition and trust.
Their tacit cooperation and sincere friendship also made the audience full of expectations and love for this pair of "CPs". I hope that in the future, Lin Gengxin can continue to hone his acting skills and continue to cooperate with Zhao Liying to create more classic roles and works!
