Zhao Liying, born in Langfang, Hebei in 1987, worked her way up from talent competitions and small parts before becoming one of mainland Chinas most-watched actresses of the 2010s. She broke through in the palace drama Legend of Lu Zhen (2013), and consolidated stardom with the romantic wuxia Boss and Me (2014) and the ratings phenomenon The Journey of Flower (2015), where her portrayal of the naive-turned-vengeful heroine anchored a national craze. Later she carried the historical epic The Story of Ming Lan (2018) and pivoted to film with the rural drama Hidden Blade (2023), signalling a move toward more serious material. She remains a top-tier draw whose career mixes hit costume dramas, romances and, increasingly, prestige cinema.
