1. Unexpected opportunities: The original female lead was ordered to be in danger, and Liu Lin just seized the best opportunity to show her strength
In the 2018 high-profile TV series "Do You Know? Did you know? During the filming of "It Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin", actor Liu Lin did not expect that he would gain a major breakthrough in his career.
At that time, the role of the eldest lady in the play had been confirmed to be played by Liu Lin's classmate and friend Liu Zi. In order to create this role, Liu Zi even did not hesitate to carry out strict body management like a "pig house", in order to present the clumsy and wooden image of the eldest lady more realistically.
However, the world is unpredictable, and at the critical moment before the start of filming, Liu Zi suddenly appeared in a bad state and could not perfectly interpret this vital role.
Faced with such a predicament, the production team was once confused. At this time, Liu Lin bravely stood up and took the initiative to ask: "Let me try it!" She has successfully portrayed intellectuals in stage plays, and has a deep understanding of this cheerful and unpretentious character.
After many auditions, Liu Lin finally won the recognition of the director team with her excellent performance. What she shows is not only the image of a simple, wooden, short-tempered rural woman, but also a deep restoration of the eldest lady's straightforward, bold and generous personality.
In this way, Liu Lin took over the important role of the eldest lady from her old classmates without knowing it. Despite being a temporary replacement, she has performed with ease, portraying this classic character as vivid and comic, and unforgettable.
2. The trick of fate: The role of the eldest lady and Liu Lin's appearance complement each other, which can be called a match made in heaven
In the highly competitive entertainment industry, Liu Lin's appearance does not belong to the type of stunning four. Since she was a child, she has left the impression of being simple and honest, wooden and simple, which is completely different from the temperament and charm of those popular flowers.
This has also made Liu Lin encounter many setbacks on the road of development in the film and television industry, and it has always been difficult to achieve remarkable achievements. Whether it is her outstanding appearance or unique temperament, she seems to be lacking and difficult to get the favor of important roles.
Until the filming team of the famous costume romance drama "Do You Know" was officially launched, the god of fate finally gave this excellent actress - Liu Lin a bright halo! The character who calls himself the "big lady" in the play, his maverick personality and Liu Lin's appearance, charm, temperament and form are a beautiful blend, as if this role was tailor-made for Liu Lin.
The eldest lady in the setting, as the wife of the Sheng family's master Ming Media, is innocent and frank in nature, and her style of action is even more energetic. She is plump and has a slightly heroic demeanor, revealing an unadorned image of a country woman.
And this sincere and simple temperament is Liu Lin's innate talent, although she looks ordinary and slightly fat, but her walking and words reveal a clear and decisive bearing, which is perfectly integrated with the personality characteristics of the eldest lady.
Thanks to the extraordinary fit between the two, Liu Lin was able to present the female character who dared to confess herself in the play, with fiery emotions and fiery temperament, in a three-dimensional and vivid way in front of the audience.
It was as if I only had to look at her for a moment, as if I could hear the big lady calling out in a deep and powerful voice, "Hi! Eh" sound.
The role of "Big Lady" is undoubtedly a gorgeous flower in Liu Lin's acting career. It cleverly fills in the shortcomings of her mediocre appearance and lack of comedian positioning elements in the entertainment industry, making her shine in film and television works for the first time, and perfectly interpreting this vivid and interesting character image from the inside out.
3. Good intentions: Interpret the role from the heart, and the delicate expression is moving
Although the character of the eldest lady looks rugged and bold on the outside, it is not easy to dig deep and interpret her spiritual connotation. Liu Lin has a deep understanding of this, so when playing this role, she poured all her efforts and painstaking efforts, carefully carved every detail, and strived to depict the inner and outer world of the eldest lady vividly.
First of all, she showed the bold and unrestrained side of the eldest lady to the fullest. For example, in the process of walking, Liu Lin deliberately amplified the amplitude of her movements, making the posture of the eldest lady strutting and striding meteor more distinct and prominent.
In the well-known "wrestling" scene, she deliberately used too much force, showing the clumsiness and antics of the eldest lady just right, causing the audience to laugh.
As for the eldest lady's honest and informal demeanor, Liu Lin also unreservedly presented it through a straightforward and honest performance when speaking.
With her innate slightly rustic appearance, the image of this big lady is vividly and deeply displayed in front of the audience.
What is even more touching is Liu Lin's wonderful and delicate interpretation of the inner activities of the eldest lady. For example, at the moment when she learned that her grandmother was in danger, she first showed a panicked look, and then her eyes were full of complex emotions such as anxiety, self-blame and fear, and these subtle changes were presented by her in a subtle but expressive way, which is unforgettable.
Another example is the plot of the eldest lady who ingested poison by mistake under the inducement of Aunt Kang, when she learned the truth, Liu Lin's eyes first widened, revealing a shocked expression, and then revealed a grief-stricken and remorseful look, and every moment of mental state was perfectly reflected in her eyes, delicate and moving.
Although the eldest lady has a straightforward personality, her emotional world is also rich and colorful, and Liu Lin makes the character more vivid and three-dimensional by carefully depicting these rich inner worlds.
Fourth, the clever tongue is like a spring: the position of the lines is accurately grasped, and the overall atmosphere is full of comedy
In addition to the vivid and interesting appearance of the eldest lady, Liu Lin also controlled her lines with ease, adding a strong comedy to this role.
For example, the well-known phrase "what a big bed" came from Liu Lin's mouth. When she accidentally found out that Mo Lan and Liang Liu had a private meeting, she was speechless for a while, so she directly and honestly expressed her opinion.
The straightforward character trait of the eldest lady makes her reaction seem simple and direct, but in fact it is the best interpretation of the comedic effect.
The audience was also deeply impressed by the eldest lady's dissatisfaction with Lin Yushuang. When she couldn't stand Lin Yushuang's foxy behavior, she mocked mercilessly: "It seems that foxes also need talent!" ”。
Liu Lin vividly expressed the eldest lady's disgust for Lin Yushuang's hypocrisy, and the tone and tone were just right, making this tortuous psychological description more vivid and interesting.
What is amazing is that even some seemingly ordinary small details, Liu Lin can add endless fun to the plot with her unique interpretation. For example, when the eldest lady hopes that her son Chang Bai will be in high school with great anticipation, and on the other hand, she is secretly looking forward to Lin Yushuang's son falling to Sun Shan, this kind of secret inner struggle is skillfully displayed by her subtle gestures and expressions, which is extremely vivid and profound, and people can't help but laugh.
On the whole, Liu Lin can accurately grasp and use every comedy element contained in the eldest lady's lines. She seems to have an innate talent for comedy, and is able to find the place of every laugh with unmistakable accuracy, thus successfully creating a lively atmosphere full of comedic overtones.

In the series "Know", in addition to the main line of the dispute between power and money of the Chang family, the most familiar and unforgettable thing for the audience is undoubtedly the image of the eldest lady created by Liu Lin.
And her charm largely comes from the stark contrast with the image of Lin Yushuang, a concubine.
The eldest lady is born with a bold and uninhibited temperament. She acted frankly and directly, and treated the Lin family's mother and son mercilessly, and even wanted to expel them from the house and sell them into slavery in person, without ever considering using more insidious and vicious methods.
In contrast, Lin Yushuang showed a completely different style. Her smiles, gestures, and gestures all reveal carefully carved pretentiousness, revealing the charming charm of a small jasper everywhere, which is fascinating.
The contrast between these two personality traits makes the different temperaments of the two female characters more prominent and more concentrated in front of the audience. Because of this, the unpretentious contrast power of the eldest lady makes Lin Yushuang's well-designed coquettish beauty even more eye-catching.
In addition to the difference in personality, the external images of the two also form a huge contrast. The eldest lady is plump, with an ordinary appearance, and a bit of boldness between her actions; And Lin Yushuang is carefully dressed, and every detail exudes a delicate and moving atmosphere.
This strong visual contrast further deepens the sense of separation between the temperaments of the two.
It is precisely because of the existence of these contrasts that the female characters with distinct personalities in "Know" are more prominent, more vivid and three-dimensional, and unforgettable.
This makes the plot of the whole play compact and interlocking, making the plot progress more natural and smooth.
