The realistic comedy "Article 20" directed by Zhang Yimou and starring Lei Jiayin, Ma Li, Zhao Liying, Gao Ye and others will be released on New Year's Day in 2024. The film uses vivid real-life stories and the perspective of small characters to show the justice and humanity behind Article 20 of the Criminal Law on "legitimate defense".
Actor Zhao Liying plays Hao Xiuping in the film, who is a hearing-impaired person. On the 16th, after watching the trailer and behind-the-scenes, a hearing-impaired girl posted a video saying that Zhao Liying's performance was so good that she "broke her defenses" and "couldn't help but cry just looking at the picture."
"Awesome! Hao Xiuping's expression looked like this when she was crying!" The netizen said, "Because hearing-impaired people cannot express their emotions verbally and can only convey them through facial expressions, so it looks a bit exaggerated. ."
She also said, "I am very grateful to Sister Zhao Liying for playing the role of a hearing-impaired person and reflecting the living conditions of our group. I am very happy. I want to say to Sister Zhao Liying, Hao Xiuping, you are really good at sign language, excellent! My sister hasn’t learned sign language yet.”
That night, Zhao Liying also responded via video. While signing in sign language, she smiled and said: "Thank you everyone for your likes. I received it. Thank you."
