Have you watched the Taiwanese drama "We Are Not Kind Enough"?
In addition to the nostalgic jokes between Ariel Lin and Tiffany Hsu, old friends from "Kiss," what touched me was Rene Liu's role as the shrewd older sister who knows how to give the heroine some tips.
In my impression, Rene Liu is a tear of the times who is artistic, gentle and elegant.
But in fact, few people know that she is the same as the image in this drama. She has a wide network of contacts, has both sides, and has a luxurious circle of friends who are all true friends.
has a strong career, and her performance is not inferior to that of Zhang Ziyi and other big names, or even better. She is an all-around artist with excellent singing, acting, and directing, and she is also a strong and smart modern woman. The contrast between
is so big, so curious.
This year happens to be the 30th anniversary of Rene Liu’s debut.
Zhang Aijia originally discovered her because she is a person who blushes easily. How did she accumulate so much wealth in life?
Let’s take a look at her luxurious circle of friends and amazing transcript.
There are actually quite a lot of social e-people who have high emotional intelligence and make friends in domestic entertainment, but they often make only acquaintances and fair-weather friends. What's amazing about Rene Liu is that she makes lifelong close friends.
In addition to the two masters who led her to debut, Chen × and Sylvia Chang, Li Zongsheng, Zhou Huajian and Taiwan Entertainment host godmother Zhang Xiaoyan are all her lifelong friends.
When she entered her 40s and longed for marriage but was having trouble getting married, Zhang Xiaoyan and Zhang Sijia, two senior sisters who were busy with everything, were always willing to spend 6 or 7 hours to educate her.
Later, after marriage, I would still cry when I heard Zhang Xiaoyan’s heartwarming words.
What moved me was Zhang Xiaoyan's reaction -
she immediately scolded with a black face: "Why are you crying!"
but then said softly: "It's all over."
This is a natural reaction only for elders who care about their children like mothers: Angry because they really feel sorry for them.
has more friends of similar age.
I met Wu Bai in the 1998 "Marriage Notice", and they became regular guests at each other's concerts.
I met Zhou Xun during the filming of "April in the World" in 2000, and the two of them hung out together.
has a magical origin. Zhou Xun's predecessor Da Qi was originally Liu Ruoying's friend. Zhou Xun asked Liu Ruoying to recommend a reliable Tony, so they got involved.
Zhou Xun got married in 2014, holding her then husband in one hand and Rene Liu in the other, haha. It is equivalent to saying that no matter which one comes later, men can change, but Rene Liu remains the same.
The script of "The Next Us", which Liu Ruoying directed for the first time in 2018, was encouraged by Zhou Xun to write it.
In "A World Without Thieves" in 2004, my friendship with Andy Lau and Wang Baoqiang has been going on for 16 years.
In 2023, Andy Lau asked Rene Rene to sing a promotional song for "The Crowd" starring him. Taking the opportunity of this song, he specially recorded a vcr to thank Rene Rene. He felt very lucky to have met Rene Rene, a true friend after more than 40 years in the industry.
In the same year, Wang Bao's powerful directorial work "The Octagonal Cage" was also a promotional song sung by Rene Liu with great help.
Rene Liu revealed that for so many years, Wang Baoqiang would remember her birthday every year and send her 666 red envelopes. Wang Baoqiang is very grateful to Liu Ruoying for her unconditional support at critical moments. He will always be Milk Tea's silly brother and his forever relative.
In 2007, while filming "The Ghost in My Heart", I became friends with director Teng Huatao, who was the one who hooked up Rene Liu's husband.
I met Tang Wei in "Extreme Angel" in 2011. At Rene Liu's concert in 2016, Tang Wei went to the stage to support her despite her pregnant belly.
I met Gui Lunmei on "Love in the City" in the same year and they both became old friends. In 2020, Gui Lunmei walked into the recording studio to sing for the first time in his life, just for his friend Rene Liu's song "I Want You to Be Well", which brings together four major literary goddesses.
During the 2018 promotion period of "The Next Us", Zhou Xun, Tang Wei, and Wang Baoqiang all came to the scene in person to help out.
Moreover, connections are only one of Milk Tea’s mediocre strengths. There is no shortage of versatile artists in
's internal entertainment, but the amazing thing is that in terms of actual performance, there are really not many who can beat the seemingly mediocre Rene Liu.
movie, Golden Horse and Golden Statue of Flowers, won grand slams at the Asia Pacific Film Festival, Hong Kong Bauhinia, and Tokyo Film Festival, with numerous nominations; TV series, Magnolia, Golden Bell Award.
music has countless popular charts and various awards. The song of the same name created for the movie "Nian Nian" was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Film Song. The latest album in 2021 continues to win numerous awards.
is not only a song, she also designed her own personal website and won awards at her concerts.
drama also won the Best Actress Award.
is a director, nominated for five Golden Rooster Awards and the Golden Horse. "The Next Us" had a box office of 1.36 billion that year. In June 2022, South Korea's Showbox Film Investment and Distribution Company announced a remake.
Rene Liu is still writing and has published 12 books. She was the most popular female artist among readers at the 2004 Readers Festival. Moreover, Sylvia Chang's "20 30 40" series was actually the idea given by Rene Liu, who participated in the script creation. The movie "Happy Birthday" was adapted from one of her essays.
She has a wide range of interests, and her masterpiece is not just a random movie or song, but several classic works in every field, which is enough to prove her strength.
Whether they are friends or works, the two have one thing in common, they are mostly very unique and very "Rene Liu".
For example, Zhou Xun, Tang Wei, and Gui Lunmei are the ones she plays best; or the works she sings, writes, and performs...
In an era when e people are said to be more suitable for "mixing in the world", Rene Liu, as an i person, as mentioned above, Even if she reaches the top level, Piao will have to pick up her methodology again.
Sylvia Chang said that these days, it is rare to see a girl who blushes easily when talking. When we first met Rene Liu, she looked like someone who had traveled through time. They chose her, a newcomer, to play the role of a simple girl amidst doubts. "Girl Xiaoyu".
After many years of debut, she still blushes at every turn.
Rene Liu also likes to immerse herself in her own world.
The scene that was discovered by Master Chen. The online version has an ambiguous atmosphere. It is said that he was amazed by Rene Liu wearing a swimsuit next to the swimming pool.
But the actual situation was full of joy -
She wore a borrowed fluorescent swimsuit that day, used the swimming pool as a training ground, and was immersed in her own world and practiced crazily.
She said that she was slightly chubby at that time, and other beauties were all looking like lotuses, but she came ashore with a "pop", and it was difficult not to have a sense of presence.
Since entering the industry, she deliberately erased her delicate feminine qualities and instead highlighted her insensitivity.
This is her philosophy of survival in a male-dominated world.
Rene Liu's bluntness is a kind of stupidity without knowing it. Although it is often embarrassing, it also helps her and various people break their guard.
For example, when we first met, senior Zhou Huajian asked her, should I call you Xiao Liu or something else?
She said seriously, oh, just call me Xiaodai.
Zhou Huajian was left messy in the wind. When Zhou Huajian mentioned it again many years later, she realized it later and laughed until she was stupid.
Another time I chatted with Sylvia Chang about men. She said that she was slow to warm up, and she felt that she was still in the ambiguous period, but the other party was already married.
then sighed solemnly: Hey, I think it’s really hard for men to last~
She said something dirty, while the female host laughed until she blushed and panicked, all the professional barriers were shattered under her fists, and the atmosphere was... So much more relaxed.
Being insensitive also means being able to make jokes and withstand criticism.
When Zhou Huajian revealed the past about "small breasts" in "Kangxi", it happened to be that she came to promote the Little Arena concert, so the idol Wang Xiaos immediately ridiculed her as the queen of small breasts, and also said that the small breasts are against the Arena Neat.
She wasn't upset, she even said it was acceptable if the fans shouted like that, hahaha.
To this day, she and Xiao S are still good friends who exchange parenting experiences. After
became famous for many years, Mayday Martha from the same company moved a stool to sit directly opposite her and seriously commented that she was not good at singing. She was scolded by Sylvia Chang in public in the street, but she didn't mind at all.
said that she was really grateful to those who criticized her, and in turn invited Martha to help her write songs.
Therefore, in many people's evaluations, "boyish" is her label, and it is easy to think that being carefree is easier to get along with.
is not polite and often reveals his embarrassing shortcomings, which makes people feel amiable.
Even Chen Luyu, who netizens think is not a good business visitor, loves Rene Liu very much and spoke highly of her interviews:
said that interviewing others would be tiring, but Rene Liu would not, and she would use words like two good friends of the same age chatting. It's "very happy".
After all, in that interview, Rene Liu vividly exposed the embarrassing incident of the microwave oven exploding at home, which made Lu Yu laugh non-stop.
The so-called "boyishness" actually has nothing to do with gender. It should be said that it is the heroic spirit and grandeur of children of the world.
Rene Liu is still a person with high emotional intelligence. When
interacts with others, he is very considerate of others' feelings and is good at controlling the atmosphere.
In Lu Yu's interview, she talked about how her grandfather, who raised her up, fell into a coma before his death. Rene Liu sang for him for the last time, and her grandfather actually shed tears.
The atmosphere was originally sad and heavy, but she suddenly said:
I knew he had heard it
Then I told my grandmother
It’s okay that we usually don’t say bad things about him
As the host, Lu Yu doesn’t need to adjust the atmosphere, Rene Liu herself Just take care of everything. When
visited children with cancer, she did not bring a sense of heaviness to the children who were fighting the disease. Instead, she teased them nonsensically and funnyly: From now on, when people ask you who your idol is, you just say Rene Liu, do you know?
caused the children to quarrel with her and tell her their real idols.
wasn't treated as special, and they were perhaps more relaxed at that moment.
Of course, high emotional intelligence does not mean you will have many friends.
Liu Ruoying's high emotional intelligence is not technical, but first of all due to her upbringing. She is a girl who grew up in a military family. No matter how down-to-earth she is, her upbringing will never fade away.
Once upon a time, the host tried to spy on whether she and Master Chen had an ambiguous relationship, and asked her what she wanted to call him other than "Master". I didn't get the answer I wanted, and I felt that Rene Liu was not telling the truth.
Rene Liu also revealed that this speculation actually bothered her to the point of doubting herself.
But when faced with the offense, she not only did not get angry, but also helped the hesitating host to complete her interview KPI -
Her upbringing makes people in this chaotic era, and the domestic entertainment that condenses the era, there are A sense of security.
On a deeper level, behind the upbringing, it is because she has always used emotions to exchange energy with the outside world sincerely, and she is an emotional "devil". When
was filming "Nanjing 1937", she was very homesick because of her depressing role and the fact that she was filming in other places for a long time.
So when she learned that her return trip would be postponed for a few days, she collapsed and cried so much that she alerted her senior Qin Han, who lived upstairs with the crew, and the two later became old acquaintances.
Sylvia Chang said that although Rene Liu may seem stunned at first glance, she is actually very thoughtful and smart. She has her own way of thinking about the world, and can even think about the world in several ways.
She is indeed a person with a wonderful spiritual world.
is an old soul with a very stable core. Although she has been slow to gain popularity all year round, it is easy to attract people who share her frequency.
Why does Andy Lau like Rene Liu? Because he likes to pester Rene Liu about writing lyrics.
Lu Yu loves to read Rene Liu’s books very much, to the point of reading one book several times.
And Zhou Xun and Liu Ruoying had endless days of chatting. Because the two kept staying up late chatting, the crew was worried about their edema the next day, so they turned off the hotel elevator at night to try to stop it, but they ended up climbing the stairs to continue chatting.
The friends she attracts with her own temperament and inner spirit are definitely more sincere and longer-lasting than fair-weather friends, and some strange people will be automatically filtered out.
Huang Zijiao once claimed that he was having an affair with Rene Liu, and he went to Hong Kong to find her to find something to develop, but she didn't even call her and didn't show up at parties (it's really cool).
She does the same with her work.
She said that her external conditions are not amazing, but as long as it is a work she handles, she must either not do it or do it to fully convey the emotions she wants to express.
As long as she is moved, there must be others like her who will be moved. Did
find it?
She dares to maintain a very self-confident Liu Ruoying for decades, and she also dares to expose herself. This is the key to her ability to quickly select many like-minded true friends and create many classic works with matching temperaments.
Of course, like top people in many fields, she is a workaholic. Before giving birth, she had already filled her confinement schedule with work, and all her achievements came from hard work.
For her all-around award, others flattered her and said that those who are capable work hard. However, she revealed that she was "nosy".
She is nosy because she is someone who desperately needs to participate in the world.
The same goes for friends. She will try her best to be there in person to participate in the important moments of her loved ones.
has been debuting for many years. Every time she bows in a concert, she still thanks her fans for touching her and feels that she has no virtue and no ability. I went to cheer up my friends, not because I thought it was troublesome, but because I felt happy to be a part of it.
This sense of participation is actually a kind of heartfelt gratitude. In essence, it is a process of seriously exchanging energy with the outside world with sincere emotions.
That’s why I said, Rene Liu is very smart.
When the argument is that it is easier for e people to achieve worldly success, groups of friends and dazzling achievements, Rene Liu has always regarded herself as a sincere signal.
is full of insensitivity to block out the noisy negative information, continuously disseminates information that marks its own temperament, and identifies souls and opportunities that are also compatible with the outside world. It silently creates a luxurious circle of friends and transcripts.
i people have their own way to dominate the world.
