In recent years, with the gradual disappearance of the era dividend of Taiwan's showbiz circle and the mainstream of film and television production by mainland actors, it has become increasingly difficult for Taiwanese artists who were once very big names in the mainland to receive plays, coupled with the inconvenience caused by the isolation policy adopted in response to the epidemic, so that they have gradually begun to rise to the upsurge of returning to their hometowns to shoot dramas.
Among them, the most representative are Lin Xinru and Jia Jingwen.
As we all know, lin Xinru has gradually shifted the focus of his career to Taiwan since he married huo jianhua and had children. Public information shows that since 2017, Lin Xinru has not participated in the production of mainland film dramas, and has only occasionally appeared in variety shows for a short time, and in the past two years, she has completely disappeared from mainland variety shows. On August 24, 2021, Lin Xinru officially cancelled the film and television studio.
At the same time, Lin Xinru has invested a lot of time, energy and money to participate in the production of Taiwanese film and television works, including the TV series "My Boy", "Hua Lantern Chu Shang", "Who is the Victim", "Those Bird Things They Started", the movie "The Appearance of Suspect X", "Lost Andy" are all works in recent years, and "Imitation Prisoner" will be filmed next.
Jia Jingwen is slightly different, belonging to the state of mainly filming Taiwan dramas and occasionally filming land dramas, as of now, her last set of mainland dramas is "Fourteen Years of Chenghua" filmed in January 2019, the last mainland film is "There is no end" in April 2017; the last mainland variety show is "Mama is Superman Season 3" broadcast in March 2018.
In Taiwan, Jia Jingwen has filmed "The Dreamer", "The Distance Between Us and Evil" and "Mom, Don't Make Trouble" in recent years! "Waterfall" and other works, good reputation, but also shortlisted for the Golden Horse Awards film queen, won the Golden Bell Award after the queen.
In addition, He Rundong, Chen Bailin and Zhou Yumin also gradually began to return to Taiwan to take over the role.
Although He Rundong is still receiving mainland dramas, his cultivation in the Taiwan market is much harder than before, "Memories of Climbing over the Wall", "Who's Around You", "The Smile of Heaven", and "The Flower Armor Turns to a Boy" are all Taiwanese works in recent years; Chen Bailin has no mainland works after filming "Crocodile and Toothpick Island" 3 years ago, and returned to Taiwan to take over "Tricky" and "The Algorithm of Justice"; Zhou Yumin has filmed in Taiwan again after many years and starred in the film series "Reverse Game".
With the passage of time, the competitiveness of Taiwanese actors in the mainland will further decline, which involves many factors such as accent and industry, so that they have to consider the possibility of returning to their hometown for development, as a veteran actor who has achieved fame and saved his wealth, they do have this capital to make new attempts.
