However, Lin Fangbing did not like this title. Years ago, she had the heart to experiment with different types of roles.
At the beginning of the preparation of the TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber", Lin Fangbing had proposed to play Lin Daiyu, but he regretted rubbing shoulders with this role because of the "choose classical beauty, not a well-known actor" stipulated by the crew.
Until 1990, Lin Fangbing met the TV series "Tang Ming Emperor". In order to perform the plump beauty, she began to gain weight from the moment she was determined to star.
For Lin Fangbing, who was tall and slender since childhood, fattening was particularly painful. Drinking the size of a bottle of salt water bottle after bottle, the weight is not rising, she can only eat and drink non-stop. For 17 months, she had to eat two eggs every day before going to bed, and she was so sleepy in the middle of the night that she had to get up and eat chicken soup noodles, and even set a shocking record of eating 14 meat buns.
The pressure of gaining weight made Lin Fangbing and the people around her unbearable. Once, she cried bitterly after hard stuffing two eggs, and even more emotionally collapsed and slapped her assistant. After realizing her problem, she cried and apologized to her assistant, who couldn't help but cry and begged the director to finish filming quickly.
However, Lin Fangbing's efforts have finally paid off. In the TV series, we can also see that Yang Guifei's face is getting rounder and rounder, and her figure is becoming more and more plump. She gained 50 pounds for the play, and truly performed the grace and magnificence of the beauty of the Tang Dynasty.
Not long after filming "Tang Ming Huang", Lin Fangbing entered the crew of "Love Ding Shaolin Temple".
This time, she had to change her weight for the role, eating only an apple in the morning, a little vegetable and half a steamed bun at noon, and nothing at night. In addition to dieting, she also has to work out every day, although she lost 40 pounds in a short period of time, but because of this endocrine disorder, she also suffered from asthma.
