Liu Haoran: Drama, 360 Entertainment & Industry Impact

One minute of the drama touched the entire network, and the 27-year-old actor Liu Haoran, who is well-off, taught a lesson to the entertainment industry
Hey, there is an actor who is the smart “Qin Feng” in “Detective Chinatown”. Everyone once called him “National Brother”, but later he lost his reputation because of some things. He is Liu Haoran.
Liu Haoran was selected by Chen Sicheng at the age of 16. He scored first in professional courses when he was in school. He was nominated for the Hundred Flowers Awards Best Actor at the age of 25. The “Detective Chinatown” series made him famous. He played Qin Feng so well and became the “national brother” in the hearts of the audience. He also won a lot of awards when walking on the red carpet. At that time, he was really a hot commodity in the entertainment industry.

But people are sometimes greedy, and Haoran’s younger brother is no exception. In 2023, he wanted to transform and collaborated with Zhou Dongyu to film “Ran Dong”, where he played the role of the young depressed “Li Haofeng”. For the sake of role, he grew a beard, took himself to gain weight, and even went to a mental hospital to observe patients. But who would have thought that as soon as the movie was in the dark, the audience was shocked. The young and sunny brother turned into a greasy uncle with a beard. No one bought it. The box office and reputation of the movie were both defeated.
What’s even more unlucky is that because of filming “Ran Dong”, he had a lot of contact with Zhou Dongyu. The media photographed them returning to the community and playing badminton. There was also news of their marriage that they were planning to buy a house. Oh my, negative news is flying everywhere, which makes Haoran’s career fall into an ice hole. In addition, he was also criticized by people when he participated in a variety show for taking off his socks. He ran away a lot of fans and fewer endorsements and works.

However, time can heal everything. In the summer of 2025, Liu Haoran came back with “Nanjing Photo Studio”. In the movie, he played the apprentice “Achang”, washing photos of the Japanese army, but quietly kept evidence of their massacre. He also took in wounded soldiers at night and set up a shelter in the photo studio. He tried his best to transfer everyone to safety.
In order to play “Achang” well, Liu Haoran studied history half a year in advance and read it with information at any time. There was a scene where the Japanese army killed people. He repeatedly filmed more than a dozen times, and after the filming, he was trembling all over. At the end of the movie, there is a one-minute clip, which is simply a god. A Japanese army threw a newborn baby to the ground. He collapsed there with his camera in his arms, his eyes were red and he held back tears. The fear and helplessness made the audience in the theater cry.
With “Nanjing Photo Studio”, Liu Haoran’s reputation has reversed and he won the Golden Deer Award at the end of August. At the recent 80th anniversary party for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the few words he recited were praised by the entire network, saying that he was pronounced clearly and had enough emotions, bringing people back to the past.

Liu Haoran not only acts well in the drama, but also is particularly keen on charity. He has undertaken the “clothing reduction challenge”, bringing warmth to children in the mountainous areas, going to Gansu to plant trees, and also sponsoring poor college students. He donated money during the epidemic, and he also donated money during the heavy rain in Zhengzhou. In short, he kept doing good deeds. Liu Haoran, now 27 years old, has a box office of over 23 billion yuan. He is really a reliable and powerful role model in the entertainment industry!
