Zhao Liying's success has two keys, one is the internal cause, her own efforts and not accepting defeat; the other is the external cause, Zhang Na, who also takes the sweet route, pulled out the "circle money door" incident.
<h1>01</h1>
<h1>First, let's talk about Zhao Liying's origin</h1>
On October 16, 1987, on a late autumn morning, Zhao Liying was born into an ordinary rural family in Dachangting Village, Langfang Development Zone, Hebei Province.
Speaking of the countryside in 1987, for many of the post-90s and post-00s people now, it may be really far away, but I have a deep understanding. Because I was born in that era, too.
In the countryside of 1987, television was not an ordinary home appliance, but a luxury product.
At that time, the games played by rural children were throwing sandbags, eagles catching chickens and so on.
Looking at the big Changting Village where Zhao Liying was born, it can be said that the real development is not too good, even if you look at it now, their conditions are still very general, and they are relatively backward.
Zhao Liying, like many rural children, is also wearing patched clothes and eating 1 cent 1 popsicle.
Of course, as a rural baby girl, she also has a very important job, that is, to work in the field with her parents.
Zhao Liying said that picking cotton and peeling sticks when she was a child was a common thing.
At that time, children, jumping out of the dragon gate basically only one way, is to learn, if you study well, you have the opportunity to enter the university, into the city life, but this has a premise, is that you have the talent to learn.
Unfortunately, The heavens did not pay much attention to Zhao Liying in this regard, and her talent in learning was average.
Therefore, in 2003, Zhao Liying, who graduated from junior high school, was only admitted to Langfang Electronic Information Engineering School, a secondary school with vocational education development as the mainstay.
At that time, her chosen major was aviation services.
If you were born in that era, you must know that the flight attendant of a rural girl born in such a family was just a dream, a distant dream.
After graduation, Zhao Liying began the journey of part-time work, working as a waiter, working as a pipe maintenance worker, and even handing out leaflets.

<h1>Start with the draft</h1>
Since 2004, various talent shows have begun in China, and what makes everyone more familiar may be "Super Girl", and then there are likes such as "Happy Male Voice", "My Type I Show" and so on.
Of course, it also created a group of new idol stars, such as Li Yuchun, Zhang Liangying, and Zhang Hanyun.
In 2006, 19-year-old Zhao Liying participated in the "Yahoo Search Star" draft jointly sponsored by Yahoo Search Network, Zhejiang Satellite TV and Huayi Brothers.
I watched the draft in detail, and the introduction of Zhao Liying at that time was still a sales/advertising career.
At that time, the name of the song that Zhao Liying sang was Fable, and then improvised a solo sketch.
Of course, the final result is known to many people, Zhao Liying won the championship of Feng Xiaogang's group with her good performance and the support of the voting network.
Subsequently, Zhao Liying participated in the YAHOO advertisement "Kneeling Family" directed by Feng Xiaogang and starring Fan Wei.
Although the name of the advertisement is "Kneeling Family", it is the first time that Zhao Liying has stood up in front of everyone.
That is, with the first advertisement that just debuted, she was sought after by netizens as a "national school flower".
<h1>03</h1>
<h1>Zhao Liying's dragon set career</h1>
Since then, Zhao Liying has begun her acting career.
However, she is not from a science class, and she really can't talk about her superb acting skills, and even she doesn't have the basic qualities of many actors.
At that time, she stayed in the crew all day, the director and Jean said whatever they wanted, not knowing what acting was and what was the reaction.
Once, in the process of selecting actors, the director let Zhao Liying audition, and as a result, she was naïve at that time and could not even remember her lines, and she stumbled when she spoke, very blunt;
Again, during the audition, the director asked her to play a crying scene, but she couldn't cry at all;
In "Golden Marriage", she played Jiang Wenli's third daughter Duoduo, and Zhao Liying herself recalled that at that time, she did not even solve the most basic accent problem, and spoke with a clear Langfang flavor.
She personally admitted that in the first few years of filming, she received a lot of criticism, and at the most serious time, the director was angry and even criticized her: "Why do you always pout when you exercise, do you not know that when you pout, your mouth is like a pig?" ”
She was even labeled a "difficult household" for the audition.
In such a starting point, Zhao Liying did not take over any important roles, but played small roles such as yakuza, granddaughter, and village girl.
Zhao Liying entered the show business circle in 2006 and began to run dragon sets, and this run is 7 years.
In these 7 years, Zhao Liying has starred in more than a dozen TV series.
In 2006, in "The King of Vietnam", she played the little queen of Lü Buwei;
In 2007, in "The Peony Pavilion of the World", he played Xiaohong;
In 2008, in "Spring Goes to Spring and Back", he played Ren Jie'er;
In 2009, in "Husband and Wife", she played Hideko Komura;
In 2009, in "Mirror Spring and Autumn", he played Wen Yan;
In 2009, in "The Ang of the Firmament", he played Ling'er;
In 2007, in "The Diary of a Need for Men and Women", he played Chu Fan;
In 2010, in "Dream of the Red Chamber", he played the little criminal worm smoke, but the shot was only a short second.
In 2010, in "Good Times Like a Dream", he played a problem girl, although the scenes and lines were more than before, but the shape of the explosive head and smoky makeup has been blackened until now.
In 2010, in "Causeway Alley", she played Li Qiuping;
In 2010, in "Ouchi Master", she played Chen Xin'er;
In 2011, in "Jade Guanyin", he played Ah Jing;
<h1>04</h1>
<h1>Round face can not act? </h1>
In the past 7 years, Zhao Liying has constantly heard such a voice, saying that the round face cannot play the main role, because the round face is limited, not atmospheric enough, playing important roles is not appropriate, and can only play some can only play like yakuza, daughter, granddaughter, sister... and the like.
At that time, Zhao Liying was very unconvinced, she did not understand, the value of an actor, why should be defined because of the shape of the face.
She secretly puts in the effort of each role, waiting for the opportunity to appear.
Finally, the opportunity came.
Zhao Liying received the play of Lu Zhen's legend.
At that time, just reading the script made Zhao Liying's blood boil, because at that time, she not only saw the role of Lu Zhen, but also saw her own state at that time and saw her own shadow.
Lu Zhen in the play is not optimistic about him, but she still proves herself with her own efforts and persistence.
At that time, she completely imagined herself as Lu Zhen, acting in this play with her own empathy, and touching the audience with her own personal experience.
In the end, Lu Zhen succeeded, and Zhao Liying also succeeded.
Zhao Liying said that because of her own popularity, many girls with round faces like her have the opportunity to fight for the protagonist.
Since then, Zhao Liying's protagonist road has been open all the way!
<h1>05</h1>
<h1>Zhao Liying should also thank one person, Zhang Nala</h1>
However, if you just write this, everyone may feel that it is not interesting, in fact, Zhao Liying's success also needs to thank another person - Zhang Nala
Zhao Liying and Zhang Nala's popularity is based on the sweet route, and since Zhao Liying became popular, she can't see Zhang Nala's shadow.
Let's also take a look at Nala Zhang.
Nala Zhang is fully from the class.
Jang Na-la's father, Ju Husheng, was a famous Korean film actor, television artist, and drama actor.
Representative works include "Racecourse", "FlyIng Together", "Youth of Ice and Fire" and so on.
In such an environment, Zhang Nala often appeared on various stages with her father since she was a child, and began to shoot TV commercials for various student supplies and chocolates in high school.
Since the 5th grade of elementary school, Jang Na-ra has often appeared in her father's stage plays by Jang Na-la, and began to shoot TV commercials for student supplies and chocolates in high school, and officially became a student of the Drama Department of Seoul University in 2000.
In May 2001, Nala Zhang stepped into the show business as a singer and released her debut album "First Story", which won awards such as "Best Newcomer", "Most Popular CD", and "MBC Top Ten Singers" in the same year, and attended the year-end SBS Song Contest. In the same year, Zhang Nala was invited to participate in the performance of MBC youth idol drama "Non-Stop".
In 2002, in addition to being the host of live MBC "MUSIC CAMP", she also served as the heroine of the SBS TV series "Success of a Cheerful Girl". In addition, in addition to starring in "The Love of the Red Bean Girl", she was also selected as an advertising model for Kia Motors' "spectra-wing".
On April 18, 2004, Nala Zhang participated in the "China Beijing Asia-Pacific Music Festival" in Beijing. On May 30, I rushed to Changchun to participate in the opening concert of the Food Expo. Beginning on September 18, Zhang Nala and the crew of "Silver Years" worked at the Beijing Film Academy for nearly two months. On September 26, she participated in the performance of CCTV's "The Same Song".
It was also in this year that she opened up the Chinese market.
<h1>06</h1>
<h1>How hot was Zhang Nala in China at that time?</h1>
The TV series "Princess Diao Man" that was a big fire that year was starred by her. The "crayfish" she played in the play is eccentric and cute.
The process of the emperor played by Su Youpeng from "worshiping brothers" to becoming husband and wife is even more ironic.
This drama should be the favorite TV series of the first sister in junior high school.
The theme song of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, "Welcome to Beijing", all the big names with heads and faces in the entertainment industry will sing two sentences.
The weight of this song is definitely no less than that of the Spring Festival Gala. This is the time to show the Chinese style to the people of the world. Zhang Nala was also invited to sing the song.
One is because her development in the Chinese entertainment industry at that time was really very good, the rhythm of a first-line female star, and the other is because of her status as an international friend.
She even became an Olympic torchbearer in South Korea. Zhang Nala's appearance at the Olympic Games has laid a firm foundation for her subsequent development in China.
<h1>07</h1>
<h1>If you want the support of Chinese, you can't do anything that offends Chinese</h1>
In 2009, on an entertainment program in South Korea, Ms. Jang said that "every time the production fee is tight, I will go to China to perform," but the program translated into Chinese characters became: if you don't have money, you will go to China to perform.
This has caused strong dissatisfaction among Chinese netizens, many of whom believe that Zhang Nala's implication is to regard the Chinese market as a place where they circle their money.
Suddenly, anger spread among the Chinese. No matter how Zhang Nala explained it, it did not help, and china's performing arts market finally directly banned her.
The reason why Zhang Nala can gain super popularity in China before is not only her acting skills and appearance, but also because of her demeanor in the state of Chinese etiquette.
Zhang Nala, who debuted in China in 2004, went to visit Confucius in the company of her father (his father was her agent, arranging all her performance activities and daily life), and even said in front of the media many times that she liked Chinese and Chinese culture. Treat fans and audiences very kindly and courteously.
In the entertainment industry, there is no such bad scandal as diligent filming. Because of this, Chinese people especially loved this foreign girl.
People who know a little know that the income of a person in the Korean entertainment industry is not as good as that of China. Therefore, many Korean celebrities are willing to come to China to develop after gaining a certain popularity in China and opening up the Chinese market.
After the "Circle Money Gate" incident, fans' attitudes were unanimous, and some people thought that Zhang Nala was really "insulting China" after Zhang Nala's agency in Beijing apologized for her on her blog, "On the show that day, Zhang Nala's own speech was expressed purely in accordance with the purpose of entertainment programs, and there was absolutely no disrespect to China and Chinese people." ”
Zhang Nala then recorded Chinese video to apologize, saying that the "circle money saying" was just a misunderstanding caused by the entertainment program to create an exaggerated effect, "I was on this show for publicity, at that time I just joked on my father's grievances, saying that he has been in charge of the acting career in China is very hard." But the host misunderstood that my father asked me to perform in China to supplement my family."
However, Chinese netizens did not buy it, bluntly saying that Zhang Nala was rolled out of the Chinese showbiz circle. No matter how she explained and how she clarified it, mu had any effect.
Regardless of the truth, the impact of "Circle Money Gate" on Zhang Nala's Chinese acting career is devastating. Public opinion has made Zhang Nala only able to return to South Korea to avoid the limelight. But after returning to China, she was scolded in front of her own people. When the development in China was booming, she said that China was her second hometown, and she couldn't mix in China and returned to South Korea, and the Korean people also condemned her.
<h1>The world is so wonderful that you never know what will happen tomorrow. </h1>
Today's spring breeze is triumphant, and tomorrow it may become the target of public criticism. Under the dual pressure of the outside world and herself, Zhang Nala also suffered from depression for a time and quit the Chinese showbiz circle.
Although there have been several works since then. It is said that Zhang Nala still has a lot of work to take in private, but she has not been able to return to the state of that year.
"Circle money gate" became the black history of her life. Occasionally on Weibo, or will be dissed by netizens, that incident has always become a hurdle in everyone's heart.
Chinese people can be very friendly and hospitable, wide acceptance and tolerance of foreign friends to develop, and even give you more care, Chinese will feel that they are guests from afar, and must give guests thoughtful care. However, if these "guests" bite back and do something insulting to Chinese, Chinese will also give a strong counterattack.
Let's look at this timeline, after Zhang Nala's accident in 2009, Zhao Liying received the first play with more lines, "New Zhu Gege".
Then it started from Lu Zhen, to Hua Qianbone, to Shanshan, to Chu Qiao, and set off a ratings boom again and again.
Netizens still missed Zhang Nala a little at first, but when Zhao Liying entered everyone's heart, Zhang Nala really couldn't come back!
