[Edit this paragraph]『2. Personal experience』

In 1993, at the age of 15, when he was in his second year of high school, he was selected to join the Army Art Troupe of the Nanjing Military Region. From 1993 to 1995, he served as an art soldier in the art troupe.

In 1998, he moved to Guangzhou and studied law at Guangzhou International Studies University at his own expense. Since 2000, he has shot many commercials of various types, such as the Wahaha mineral water commercial co-produced with Leehom Wang.

In 2000, he starred in "Foreign Wife, Local Man", playing the role of Hu Xingzi. She was spotted by the director while filming a commercial. With her boldness, daring to act, and tenacity similar to that of a Shanghai girl, Liu Tao successfully played the role of this foreign daughter-in-law, a shrewd and snobbish Shanghai girl. This film has extremely high ratings in the Pearl River Delta. In the same year, he appeared in "Huanzhugege - Heaven and Earth", playing the role of Musa. She herself described the process of playing this role: "At that time, they gave me 5 pages of lines. When I looked at it, it was really scary. The names of Xiaoyanzi were all the names of dishes. There were two big sheets, and there were fifty or sixty kinds of tea names. So. , I was filming during the day, and I started memorizing the names of the dishes every morning when I opened my eyes. I was memorizing them all night, and basically didn’t sleep much. When I went to audition, I actually memorized them. The director said that he chose me because he thought I was serious. There were so many people who auditioned, but only two people memorized it, and one of them was me." Liu Tao stood out among more than 200 actors who auditioned. With a very different style from other actresses in Qiong Yao dramas, she showed her unruly side in the drama and became the only female lead in the Qiong Yao drama who did not shed tears, leaving a very deep impression on the audience.

In 2002, Liu Tao signed a contract with Zhongjie Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. (a subsidiary of Qiong Yao). Later, he appeared in dramas such as "Happy Youth", "Red and Black 2000", and "Taiwan Straits".

In 2003, he starred in "Dragon" as A'Zhu. Her interpretation of A'Zhu won unanimous recognition from the audience and was hailed as a classic role comparable to the role of Huang Rong in the Hong Kong version of "The Condor". The producer of the play saw a magazine with Liu Tao's cover at a newsstand at the intersection, and then contacted Liu Tao's agent Li Jingping. During the audition, the crew asked Liu Tao to interpret the farewell scene with Qiao Feng. Now Liu Tao expressed A'Zhu's reserved and considerate emotions in a delicate and profound way, and thus won the favor of director Zhang Jizhong. "Only after reading the script did I understand why they asked me to play A'Zhu. I felt that I was so similar to her. Even my former boyfriend said that I was A'Zhu." At the end of 2003, Liu Tao went to Tsinghua University to hold a meet-and-greet. Her unadorned and elegant performance made her become the dream lover of the new generation on campus overnight. In the same year, she starred in "The Last Princess" as Qi Ruyu.

Liu Tao recalled that it was not until "The Last Princess" that he finally found the feeling of "acting". "When I played Musa before, I was exactly as I was when I was a soldier, just a little more arrogant. When it came time to play A'Zhu, Liu Tao described it as like reading a book, turning one page every day. Continuously improving every day." In the same year, he appeared in "The Heroes of Yongle" as Man'er. This is a costume light comedy directed by Zhang Jizhong and co-starred by Kou Shixun, Liu Xiaoqing, Tang Guoqiang, Bao Jianfeng and others. Liu Tao calls himself "Man'er is a cute and naughty character between Xiao Yanzi and Huang Rong."

In 2004, he starred in "You Are the One". Different from many roles he had played before, this time Liu Tao played the role of Du Muxue, a young lady who returned from studying in England, and Jin, the servant girl of a wealthy family. The two characters exchanged each other's identities and lives by chance. Because they exchanged identities and lovers, Liu Tao also had to play the psychological state of the characters when they were reversed. Therefore, Liu Tao could be said to have experienced four different life experiences in one person. In the same year, he starred in "The Legend of White Snake", playing the role of White Snake. Liu Tao himself commented that filming this movie was very stressful, like fighting a war: "The time when I really came back to myself was in The Legend of White Snake, because at that time I felt that The Legend of White Snake was like a war. At that time, I I regard myself as a brave soldier, because I shoulder a responsibility and shoulder this script."

In 2005, Liu Tao collaborated with Nicky Wu in the costume historical drama "How Much Sorrow Can You Have?" It tells the story of the monarchy of Empress Li of the Southern Tang Dynasty, in which she plays the roles of Emperor Zhou E and Lady Huarui. Previously, he co-interpreted "Princess of Dali" with Lin Xinru, and tried a negative role for the first time. Among the beautiful Cangshan Mountains and Erhai Lake, the characters' contradictions and choices between love and hatred are deduced. The revolutionary-themed TV series "Heroes Everywhere", adapted from the novel "Japanese Everywhere" by Shi Zhongshan (author of "The Years of Passion"), uses the image of a female underground party as a representative to show the greatness of civilian heroes during the Anti-Japanese War. He also participated in performances in dramas such as "Paris Love Song" and "The Luminous Cup". On the occasion of the Year of the Dog in 2006, Liu Tao and various celebrities shared the stage to present a New Year's movie "Po's Story" with dogs as the theme, which also fulfilled Liu Tao's movie dream.

In 2006, Liu Tao joined Nicholas Tse, Li Xinjie and other stars in the filming of "Big Shot" based on Gu Long's novel of the same name, and was fully recognized by the audience as the second female lead. Later, he collaborated with Sun Xiezhi from the popular Taiwanese group 5566 to film the magical martial arts drama "The Magic Sword". The production team was the main creative staff of "The World". A large number of computer stunts are an important highlight of this work. At the same time, it also earns all the ratings. In October, to commemorate the first anniversary of Ba Lao's death, "Cold Night" adapted from Ba Jin's novel of the same name was launched. He collaborated with powerful actors Zhao Wenxuan and Lu Zhong to play characters in the famous novel for the first time. For the first time in his acting career, Liu Tao changed his subject matter , there have been major changes and breakthroughs in characters and acting skills.

In 2007, Liu Tao changed his contract to Taihe Media Investment Co., Ltd. In the CCTV drama "Female Flower" adapted from Wu Qitai's novel "Little Taohong", women are like flowers and dreams, and the "Chinese version of Gone with the Wind" is swaying. Later, "Dancing with a Mask" and "The Prequel to the Lotus Lantern" were also included in Liu Tao's playlist as guest appearances. On October 11, Liu Tao published an article "Terminator" on his blog, revealing the news of his marriage in a poetic style.

In 2008, the wedding was officially held at 11 o'clock on January 6 at Beijing Wangfu Hotel. At the wedding banquet, he announced to the media that he would quit the entertainment industry after the marriage and focus on raising his children. Now, Liu Tao, who is in his thirties, has welcomed a healthy and lovely baby.
