From "Silly White Sweet Zhao Xiaodao" to "Sister Zhao" who is now "not much cruel".
From being "excluded" by the "85 flowers", to now winning countless awards.
Zhao Liying really confirmed the sentence "Everyone else looks down on you, but you are the most competitive".
After winning the view, he was favored by famous directors one after another, and 4 years after divorcing Feng Shaofeng, the gap between the two was clear at a glance.

In 2018, Feng Shaofeng and Zhao Liying's two-word "official announcement" caused the Weibo server to collapse directly.
Fans and viewers are immersed in the sweetness of their love and send blessings one after another, thinking that they will be an enviable couple in the entertainment industry.
However, after only three years of marriage, the two suddenly announced the news of their divorce.
Like a hammer, everyone was shocked, and the sweet oath seemed to be still in the ears, but it was no longer human.
After the divorce, the two embarked on completely different life trajectories.
Zhao Liying, the "desperate Sanniang" who has worked all the way from the countryside and has become a first-line actress with her own efforts, has not been defeated by the setbacks of divorce.
On the contrary, she is like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, devoting all her energy to her career.
She constantly challenges herself, tries a variety of different types of roles, and shines more brightly on the road of acting.
And Feng Shaofeng, although he is also working hard in his acting career, trying various different roles, wants to tear off the previous label.
But he is very low-key, rarely appears in the public eye, no longer talks about private life frequently, focuses more on future career planning, and strives to get rid of the shackles of traffic.
But the influence of his subsequent works has not been particularly significant compared to before the divorce.
It is in contrast to Zhao Liying's current career development.
Just recently, Zhao Liying once again became the focus of the entertainment industry.
She officially announced her new work, the movie "Sunflower" directed by Feng Xiaogang.
This movie has attracted much attention from the preparation stage, and Zhao Liying's joining has made countless fans and audiences full of expectations.
So, what is the charm of this "Sunflower"?
Why is director Feng Xiaogang's choice called "the right bet"?

Speaking of the relationship between Zhao Liying and Feng Xiaogang, it can be traced back to 2006, when Zhao Liying just debuted.
It can be said that Zhao Liying's ability to embark on the road of acting is closely related to Feng Xiaogang.
In 2006, a contest called "Yahoo Star Search" made waves in the entertainment industry.
Many young people with acting dreams gather here, eager to make their mark.
Among them was Zhao Liying, who was only 19 years old at the time.
At that time, Zhao Liying was just a secondary school graduate with an ordinary background and no acting experience.
Before competing in the competition, she worked in sales, but her love for acting never went away.
She resolutely quit her stable job and pursued her dream of art.
At the competition site, Zhao Liying was young but full of vitality, and her eyes flashed with persistence and firmness for her dreams.
Despite her lack of professional training, she stood out among the many contestants with her rustic performance and unique temperament, which attracted Feng Xiaogang's attention.
He took a fancy to Zhao Liying's unyielding energy and unpolished natural qualities, and thought that she was a piece of jade worth polishing.
The thoughts of the year were like a "prophecy", which gradually coincided with Zhao Liying in the future.
Sure enough, Director Feng's eyes are really "vicious".
In the end, Zhao Liying successfully won the championship of Feng Xiaogang's group.
This opened the fate with Feng Xiaogang, and also planted the first seed for his acting career.
After the game, Zhao Liying ushered in an important opportunity in her life.
She starred in the commercial film "Kneeling Chapter" directed by Feng Xiaogang, and also cooperated with well-known actors such as Fan Wei.
Although she is only a fledgling, she studied hard, carefully figured out the role, and vividly interpreted the role of the descendants of the nobility.
This valuable experience not only allowed Zhao Liying to get exposure opportunities, but also allowed her to accumulate valuable performance experience, officially stepped into the showbiz, and began her own acting journey.
But this is only the starting point of her long acting journey.
Zhao Liying, who has just entered the showbiz, can only play the role from the bottom because she has no acting experience and strong background support.
She has played insignificant minor roles in various film and television works.
It could be a maid passing by in a hurry, or a passer-by who has no sense of presence on the street.
These characters have few shots and few lines.
But Zhao Liying did not slack off, she cherished every opportunity to appear on the camera, tried to figure out the inner world of the character, and constantly honed her acting skills.
In addition, Zhao Liying has encountered many setbacks and doubts.
Some people think that her image of a round face does not conform to the mainstream aesthetics of the time and is not suitable for being an actress.
There are also doubts about her professional ability from a non-academic background.
In the face of these negative voices, Zhao Liying did not choose to back down.
She firmly believes that if she works hard enough, she will be able to break these prejudices.
It also turns out that opportunity always favors those who are prepared.
In 2011, Zhao Liying played the role of "Qing'er" in "New Huanzhu Gege".
In 2013, she began to cooperate with Yu Zheng to usher in a small peak of her career, from "The Legend of Lu Zhen" to "The Legend of Chasing Fish", Zhao Liying amazed the audience again and again.
In 2015, "Flower Thousand Bone" was born, setting off a boom in fairy tales in the film and television industry, and Zhao Liying also achieved a real sense of "popularity".
is just like Feng Xiaogang's impression when he first met Zhao Liying.
Beneath the small body lies the challenge and confrontation of fate.
Zhao Liying's "stubbornness" and "refusal to admit defeat" in the depths of her eyes have become her who is now "killing all sides" in the film and television industry.

In recent years, Zhao Liying is no longer limited to costume idol dramas, and has begun to try more works with realistic themes, achieving another breakthrough in acting.
In "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes", she plays He Xingfu, a simple woman from the countryside, with a straightforward, brave and kind personality.
In order to play this role well, Zhao Liying went deep into the countryside to experience life, learn rural dialects and living habits, and make her performance closer to reality.
Zhao Liying interpreted He Xingfu's tenacity and stubbornness very vividly, allowing the audience to see a real and three-dimensional image of rural women.
In "The Wind Blows Banxia", Xu Banxia played by Zhao Liying is a female entrepreneur who struggles to start a business in the tide of the times.
She vividly showed Xu Banxia's courage, intelligence and tenacity.
From a small scrap yard owner to a leader in the steel industry, Xu Banxia is full of legends.
Through her accurate grasp of the role, Zhao Liying perfectly integrates Xu Banxia's decisiveness in the shopping mall with her tenderness in life.
let the audience see the image of a flesh-and-blood female entrepreneur.
In 2024, Zhao Liying will challenge the deaf-mute character "Hao Xiuping" in the movie "Article 20".
This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for her.
In order to play this role well, she learned sign language in advance, communicated with deaf people, and gained an in-depth understanding of their lives and inner worlds.
In the movie, she uses delicate body language and expressions to show the emotions and inner world of the deaf-mute characters very well.
In the end, Hao Xiuping, who was helplessly dragged down by fate, jumped from a high-rise building, making countless viewers teary-eyed.
And this time in Feng Xiaogang's work "Sunflower", Zhao Liying tried a "new role" again.
A mother who went astray for her daughter and was finally released from prison "White Fox".
Compared with Zhao Liying's previous roles, the role of "White Fox" is very different.
She is no longer the image of those innocent, gentle and kind girls.
is not a heroine who relies on wisdom and courage to break out of the world in a shopping mall or a deep house compound.
"White Fox" lives at the bottom of society, her experience is more bumpy, her personality is more complex, and her inner world is richer.
This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Zhao Liying's acting skills, both in terms of character design and subject matter, which made this movie popular before it was broadcast.
We have reason to believe that Zhao Liying will have a wonderful performance in "Sunflower".
She will use her acting skills to present the audience with a real, three-dimensional, and touching image of the "white fox".
Let the audience feel the indomitable strength of women in difficult situations.
At the same time, we also expect this film to achieve excellent results and become another masterpiece of Chinese films.
