Lin Gengxin's "Road to Chasing Light": From "The Dream of 900 Million Girls" to a scholarly actor
As one of the few "scholarly" actors in the entertainment industry, Lin Gengxin's life experience is really amazing. From the beginning of his debut, he was known as "the dream of 900 million girls", and now he has not only made rapid progress in his career, but also handed over an extremely excellent report card in his studies. Being able to maintain excellent acting skills while also cultivating his professional field and obtaining a doctorate undoubtedly shows his extraordinary multiple talents.
A fantastic debut experience
Looking back on Lin Gengxin's debut process, it can be said that it is quite dreamy. As a student of Shanghai Theater Academy, he was admitted to the school "exceptionally" with his outstanding appearance and high-quality voice, and he became a blockbuster.
In 2011, the costume drama "Step by Step" starring Lin Gengxin was a great success, and since then it has risen to the sky and become popular overnight. This work not only brought him eye-catching attention and popularity, but also established the image of "the dream of 900 million girls" for him.
In fact, at the beginning of Lin Gengxin's debut, he gave people a very "hanging" feeling. Netizens jokingly said that he doesn't seem to have much pursuit, just by virtue of his excellent appearance and voice, he can win the hearts of countless girls. This kind of counterattack story of "eating with his face" can't help but make people feel that his luck is really good.
However, just when everyone thought that Lin Gengxin was just a "vase" actor who debuted with his face, he quietly showed another side.
Deepen your professional field and obtain a doctorate
Judging from the news circulating on the Internet, Lin Gengxin's name appears in the 2024 Shanghai Theater Academy doctoral student re-examination list, and his chosen major is "drama, film and television performance creation". This is undoubtedly a big surprise, because few people can associate Lin Gengxin with the word "Xueba".
A closer look at Lin Gengxin's learning experience will reveal that he has actually been quietly cultivating his professional field and accumulating strength for his own development. When he was an undergraduate student at the Shanghai Theater Academy, he had already shown superhuman learning ability, and won the school's "exceptional admission" with his outstanding performance.
After that, Lin Gengxin began to study for a master's degree at the Shanghai Theater Academy in 2018, and admitted in a variety show that he was still writing papers and needed to stay up late to study. Now, on the basis of his master's studies, he has resolutely decided to pursue a doctorate, which shows his unremitting pursuit of professional knowledge.
With Lin Gengxin's efforts, he was finally admitted to the doctoral program of the Shanghai Theater Academy. This not only shows his excellent learning ability, but also proves once again that he can succeed not only by virtue of his outstanding appearance, but also a real "academic bully" actor.
Surprisingly, although Lin Gengxin's career development has been going well, he still has not relaxed his efforts to improve his profession. This attitude of focusing on improving his professional skills undoubtedly demonstrates his dedication and enthusiasm for his acting career.
The thinking behind "The Dream of 900 Million Girls".
For a star like Lin Gengxin, who is at the peak of his debut and is known as the "dream of 900 million girls", his relationship history has always attracted attention. Since his debut, his gossip objects can be called "very few", and almost every time he shoots a scene, he will fall in love with the heroine.
Many people think that the reason why Lin Gengxin can be so "rampant" emotionally is because of his outstanding appearance and huge popularity advantage. However, a careful analysis of his love history will reveal that it also contains a lot of things worth thinking about.
First of all, Lin Gengxin's emotional outlook is actually very subtle and cautious. He never took the initiative to admit his romance, and always preferred to remain silent or deny it outright. This shows that he is very cautious about his love life and is unwilling to expose it to the public eye.
Secondly, although Lin Gengxin seems to have been changing girlfriends, he is actually not as casual as he seems to be emotionally. There were some romances, such as one with a college girlfriend in 2013, that lasted a long time and did not break up publicly until the end. This cautious and obscure love mode makes people sigh that he also has a unique philosophy of life on emotional issues.
Again, Lin Gengxin didn't really let himself go or get caught up in endless lace news. For some women, although he had ambiguities, he eventually maintained a fairly rational attitude and did not really come together. This "calm" and "steady" emotional state may also be related to some of his inner pursuits and considerations.
On the whole, behind Lin Gengxin's "dream of 900 million girls", there seem to be some unknown thoughts and choices hidden. He not only pursues professional development, but also treats feelings cautiously, showing the multiple faces of a typical "academic tyrant" actor. This combination of multiple talents undoubtedly makes people look forward to his future.
An acting career that goes beyond scandals
Although Lin Gengxin's love life has always attracted much attention and discussion, this has not affected his development in his acting career.
As early as not long after his debut, he became famous for his outstanding performance in the costume drama "Step by Step". Since then, he has shown his super acting strength in different types of works, which has gradually allowed him to get rid of the label of "only acting by face".
Although in the process of developing acting, Lin Gengxin also encountered some bottlenecks and doubts. For example, after "The Legend of Chu Qiao", he seemed to have fallen into a creative bottleneck for a while, and there was no big breakthrough in his works. But he didn't give up, but through continuous learning and accumulation, he regained his acting charm.
In 2023, Lin Gengxin and Zhao Liying will co-star in the new drama "Walking with the Phoenix", which will once again bring new opportunities for his career development. Not only that, but he also successfully won the doctoral quota of Shanghai Theater Academy, which fully proves his strength and pursuit in the professional field.
It can be said that Lin Gengxin's development in his acting career has not been smooth sailing, but he has always maintained his persistent pursuit of professionalism. Even in the period of scandals, he never relaxed his efforts to improve himself, but reshaped his acting image through continuous learning and hard work.
2023's "Walking with the Phoenix" can be said to be one of Lin Gengxin's most outstanding works in recent years. In this drama, his CP with Zhao Liying has been widely praised and shows excellent acting skills. At the same time, he also gained more recognition and attention with this work.
And at the same time as "Walking with the Phoenix" was on the air, Lin Gengxin came with another major news - he was successfully admitted to the doctoral program of the Shanghai Theater Academy. This is undoubtedly a testament to his outstanding strength in the professional field, and it also makes the outside world look forward to his future development.
As an "all-rounder" actor with both academic and acting strength, Lin Gengxin has undoubtedly gone beyond the focus of simple scandals and has become a powerful artist who has really attracted much attention. He has not only achieved great results in his career, but also achieved remarkable results in his studies, showing extraordinary multiple talents.
From the "dream of 900 million girls" in the early days of his debut to today's "scholar-type" actors, Lin Gengxin's growth trajectory can be described as ups and downs. But he has always maintained his focus and dedication to his profession, and has never relaxed his pursuit of self-improvement. This all-round development model with both appearance and strength makes people feel that he is down-to-earth and keeps forging ahead.
Looking forward to the future, I believe that with his excellent acting skills and rich academic accumulation, Lin Gengxin will definitely be able to continue to create more excitement in the entertainment industry. Not only that, but he may also be a role model for more young people, inspiring them to study hard and strive for excellence.
In general, Lin Gengxin's "road to chasing light" is sincerely admirable. He not only proved that he is a real "scholarly" actor, but also showed the professionalism and responsibility that an artist should have. His growth process has undoubtedly become a role model in the contemporary entertainment industry, which is worth learning and emulating from each of us.
