In recent days, Chinese actresses Li Bingbing and Zhao Liying attended the same event with actor Huang Xiaoming. The released footage from the event showed Li Bingbing considering herself as an elder sister and showing care towards Zhao Liying, drawing attention to their warm bond. Li Bingbing held Zhao Liying’s hand and asked Huang Xiaoming, who is also in the same production as Zhao Liying, whether he has been treating her sister well. Zhao Liying obediently responded “yes,” while Huang Xiaoming jokingly remarked to Li Bingbing, “Do you even need to say such things?” Their interactions added an interesting dynamic to the event.
The annual “Weibo Night” in the Chinese entertainment industry took place recently. Notably, actors Shen Teng, Ma Li, Zhao Liying, Li Bingbing, Tang Wei, Huang Xiaoming, and Xiao Zhan all lined up together and walked the red carpet. Among them, Li Bingbing, who hasn’t released new work for several years, prominently occupied the central position, highlighting her enduring influence in the industry.
Behind-the-scenes footage of Li Bingbing, Zhao Liying, and Huang Xiaoming has surfaced online. In the video, Li Bingbing held Zhao Liying’s hand and asked Huang Xiaoming, who is working with Zhao Liying on a new project, if he has been taking good care of her sister. Zhao Liying quickly responded affirmatively, and Huang Xiaoming playfully replied to Li Bingbing, “You really need to say that?” Li Bingbing unexpectedly became a supportive elder sister for her sister, with Huang Xiaoming graciously accepting the dynamic.
In fact, Li Bingbing and Huang Xiaoming have been longtime friends, and both highly successful actors were once shareholders in “Huayi Brothers.” Li Bingbing’s relationship with Zhao Liying is also special. Back in 2019, Zhao Liying announced her partnership with Li Bingbing, becoming a partner at “Hesong Media” under Li Bingbing’s sister Li Xue. The official Weibo account of “Hesong Media” welcomed Zhao Liying as their new partner, with Zhao Liying humorously expressing excitement about future collaborations. Their bond goes beyond mentorship to that of company partners.
Additionally, Huang Xiaoming and Zhao Liying have appeared together on the reality show “Chinese Restaurant” in its fourth and fifth seasons. As a senior on the show, Huang Xiaoming once left a message on the board before leaving, asking other members to take care of Zhao Liying. Currently, the two stars are co-starring in a new drama “City Builders,” which commenced shooting at the end of last year and is set to conclude around March this year.
While Zhao Liying divorced Feng Shaofeng in 2021, rumors surfaced on the Netease account “Mysterious Big Bro” suggesting that “Bona Film” was planning a new movie with Feng Shaofeng as the leading man and considering Li Bingbing for the female lead. Li Bingbing, after reading the script, felt the role wasn’t suitable for her and recommended her business partner Zhao Liying to the film company.
According to the rumors at the time, Li Bingbing introduced Zhao Liying to the production team, where Feng Shaofeng was also present. The encounter between the two stars was reportedly natural and friendly, indicating a lack of awkwardness and a willingness to collaborate on the new project. Although no visible signs of them working together after Zhao Liying’s divorce from Feng Shaofeng exist, the deep sisterly bond between Li Bingbing and Zhao Liying has surprised many, with Li Bingbing’s gesture of care and concern being highly appreciated and considered precious in the entertainment industry.
