In 2021, the entertainment industry will make waves again. Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng, who are known as a model couple, chose to part ways after more than two years of married life. This pair of former golden boys and girls have now chosen completely different life paths.
Zhao Liying's acting career is thriving, and her acting skills have been highly praised; But Feng Shaofeng seemed to have lost his former brilliance, and his state deteriorated.
What ups and downs did their marriage go through, and why did it end so differently? What kind of sweetness and tragedy has this seemingly perfect but contradictory marriage experienced? Let's uncover this embarrassing love story.
Back in 2018, Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng's relationship is like a fairy tale. The two became acquainted with each other because of their cooperation in "Journey to the West", and the relationship between the couple in the play seems to have continued in real life.
At that time, sharp-eyed fans found that the two frequently dined together, and some people even photographed them entering and leaving a hotel together, and these details sparked heated discussions and speculations among netizens.
Feng Shaofeng celebrated Zhao Liying's birthday many times, and the two were photographed alone on an island, these sweet moments make people wonder if the two have fallen in love.
However, on Zhao Liying's birthday in 2018, the two suddenly announced on social platforms that they had obtained a marriage certificate, and this news was like a bombshell, instantly detonating the entire network, causing the grand occasion of network paralysis, comparable to the sensational effect when Lu Han made his relationship public.
After marriage, Feng Shaofeng and Zhao Liying frequently show their affection in public, and his meticulous consideration of Zhao Liying is enviable. He celebrates his wife's birthday on time every year, often walks home hand in hand on the street, and even shares interesting stories with his wife in variety shows.
These actions not only made Zhao Liying's fans, who were initially skeptical about this marriage, change their views, but also made the public offer sincere blessings to the couple.
However, married life is not what it is in fairy tales, although it seems to be happy, there are endless negative rumors on the Internet, such as Feng Shaofeng's cheating, Zhao Liying's relationship with her mother-in-law and other speculations.
Although both have clarified the rumors, some netizens remain skeptical.
In fact, Zhao Liying expressed her attitude towards feelings in a variety show before she got married. When asked how she thought about her partner's cheating, she insisted that this was a bottom line that she could not accept.
This steadfast attitude won the appreciation of the moderators.
Over time, the differences in their lifestyles and values became apparent. Feng Shaofeng said on the show that he likes to enjoy private time after work, while Zhao Liying is more inclined to keep working and improving herself.
This difference can sow the seeds of contradiction in everyday life.
To deeply understand the rift in Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng's marriage, it is necessary to analyze the different growth backgrounds and personality traits of the two.
Zhao Liying was born in a rural area, and her upbringing was full of challenges and hardships. This experience has given her a resilient character and a strong ability to withstand stress. In an interview, Zhao Liying told about an embarrassing experience in the early days of her career.
The director asked her to shoot intimate scenes in front of the whole crew, which should be cleared, but Zhao Liying was forced to shoot many times in front of everyone, and this encounter may be difficult for many people to accept, but Zhao Liying chose to persist and endure, she knows that in the highly competitive entertainment industry, if you want to gain a foothold, you must pay more than others.
Compared with Feng Shaofeng's life experience, his life can be said to be smooth sailing. Born into a wealthy family, he received a good education from an early age, taking several art courses.
After the college entrance examination, he got his wish to enter the Shanghai Theater Academy, and began to get involved in the film and television industry while in school, although his parents initially opposed him becoming an actor and hoped that he could inherit the family business, Feng Shaofeng still insisted on his choice, which shows that he is assertive in major decisions.
However, Feng Shaofeng's personality is softer in comparison. In a variety interview with a variety show, he confessed that when his work was not going well and he was under a lot of pressure, he would choose to go home and cry to vent. This way of emotional catharsis is in stark contrast to Zhao Liying's way of dealing with it.
In the face of her husband's vulnerability, Zhao Liying's way of dealing with it is to wait for him to finish crying, and then let him see the child's calm and rational attitude, perhaps stemming from her experience of independent struggle for many years.
The difference between Feng Shaofeng and Zhao Liying's work attitude is very obvious. Feng Shaofeng made it clear in the interview that as an actor, he doesn't like filming all the time, and he longs for his own rest time.
Zhao Liying is the opposite, she enjoys continuous work and constantly improves her acting skills For Zhao Liying, continuous work is her way to gain a sense of security, and she knows that in this highly competitive circle, she may be eliminated if she slacks off.
Because of this huge difference in character values, their marriage is like a time bomb. Feng Shaofeng always feels like walking on thin ice for this relationship, and his strength is not enough.
Two people with very different personalities do need to put in more effort and compromise if they want to maintain harmony in their marriage.
Zhao Liying's tenacity and fighting spirit have allowed her to continue to climb new heights in her career, although Feng Shaofeng's gentle personality makes him comfortable in interpersonal relationships, but it may not be sharp enough in the highly competitive entertainment industry.
Such personality differences not only affected their married life, but also affected their respective career development trajectories to some extent.
When looking back on their marriage journey, it is easy to see that it was these deep-seated personality differences that ultimately led to their parting of ways. This also leads us to think that in marriage, similar values and attitudes to life may be more important than vigorous love.
Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng's acting careers are in stark contrast to their personalities.
Zhao Liying's acting career can be called an inspirational model. When she first entered the industry, she spent six or seven years in Hengdian, and could only receive the role of a dragon set, and experienced the ups and downs of the entertainment industry. However, Zhao Liying was not knocked down by these setbacks.
On the contrary, she used this time to humbly learn from her predecessors and constantly improve her acting skills until 2013, when she played the heroine in "The Legend of Lu Zhen", which finally ushered in a turning point in her career.
The well-known producer Yu Zheng once spoke highly of Zhao Liying, who believes that Zhao Liying is not only cute and beautiful on the outside, but also tenacious and tenacious on the inside, and very independent. It was precisely because of Zhao Liying's perseverance that Yu Zheng decided to hand over the heroine of "The Legend of Lu Zhen" to her, who was not very famous at the time.
Facts have proved that this decision is very correct, and Zhao Liying made this drama shine with her superb acting skills.
After that, Zhao Liying starred in many popular dramas such as "Flower Thousand Bone" and "The Legend of Chu Qiao", and soon became a first-line actress. She even participated in the Spring Festival Gala in 2019 and performed solo, which is undoubtedly an affirmation of her status.
After the divorce, Zhao Liying's career is thriving, she has successfully realized the transformation from an idol drama actress to a powerful actor, and the rural daughter-in-law He Xingfu played in "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes" and Xu Banxia in "The Wind Blows Banxia" have won unanimous praise from the audience.
In contrast, Feng Shaofeng's acting career is very smooth. He became popular in his early years with dramas such as "Palace", and later shined in "Do You Know If You Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin". However, in recent years his work has not made a great impression.
At the same time, his lace news has been frequently exposed, from Yang Mi to Ni Ni to Zhao Liying, almost all of his rumored girlfriends are first-line actresses, which also makes him bear the label of "playboy".
Interestingly, although Feng Shaofeng has been rumored, he still shows a certain sense of responsibility in his relationship. Although several of his relationships ended in breakups, they did not fall out like some celebrity couples.
This is in line with the ideal type that Zhao Liying once mentioned in the variety show.
"First of all, be responsible."
However, as time went by, the gap between Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng in their careers became more and more obvious. Especially after a divorce, the contrast is even more stark. Zhao Liying's acting career is thriving, but Feng Shaofeng seems to have fallen into a trough, her figure is fat, and her acting skills are not at the same level as before.
This huge difference in career development must make people wonder if it was the huge difference in their work attitude and life goals that eventually led to the breakdown of their marriage? Perhaps, it is precisely because of Zhao Liying's persistent efforts and continuous progress, and Feng Shaofeng's relatively stable development trajectory, that it is difficult for them to continue to move forward hand in hand.
The marriage of Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng is like a drama of ups and downs, from a sensational beginning to a peaceful end. Although the married life of the two seems to be happy, the negative rumors have never stopped.
There are often speculations on the Internet about Feng Shaofeng's derailment and Zhao Liying's tense relationship with her mother-in-law, although both have clarified these rumors, some netizens still remain skeptical.
In fact, Zhao Liying clearly expressed her firm stance on feelings in a variety show before she got married. When asked what she thinks about her partner's cheating, she didn't hesitate to say that this is an unacceptable bottom line.
This firm attitude was appreciated by the host, which may hint at Zhao Liying's principles and bottom line in her relationship.
As time passed, the differences in the lifestyles and values of Feng Shaofeng and Zhao Liying gradually became apparent. Feng Shaofeng revealed in the show that he likes to enjoy private time after work, while Zhao Liying prefers to keep working and improving herself.
This difference may have sown the seeds of contradiction in everyday life.
Further, there are huge differences in family backgrounds and upbringing between the two, which may bring potential hidden dangers in the marriage. Feng Shaofeng comes from a wealthy family and received a good education since he was a child; And Zhao Liying started from scratch and got to where she is today step by step through her own efforts.
This difference in growth background may lead them to have very different attitudes and ways of dealing with life and career.
Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng broke up peacefully after more than two years of married life, and they released an official statement on social media. Thankfully, instead of attacking or denigrating each other, the former couple chose to end the relationship in a decent way.
The end of this marriage seems to confirm the old saying: "Marriage is not the end of love, but a new beginning". The sweetness of the past could not make up for the differences and contradictions in daily life, which eventually led to the breakup of the two.
However, they chose to handle the divorce in a mature and rational way, drawing a decent end to the relationship.
After the divorce, Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng each went to a new life. Zhao Liying's acting career is thriving, and she has successfully transformed from an idol drama actress to a powerful actor. In the TV series "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes" and "The Wind Blows Banxia", Zhao Liying's rural daughters-in-law He Xingfu and Xu Banxia have won unanimous praise from the audience, fully demonstrating her profound acting skills.
Relatively speaking, Feng Shaofeng seems to have entered a period of adjustment. Although his recent performances have not been as outstanding as before, I believe that with his strength and rich experience, he will eventually find his position again.
As the saying goes, "a husband and wife for a hundred days", although the marriage of the two celebrities has come to an end, their attitude of choosing to break up peacefully is commendable. As former partners, friends today, and more importantly, parents of children, we hope that they can be well, continue to shine in their acting careers, and we also wish their children can grow up healthy and happy.
