'The Rise of Phoenixes', which was crowned one of the best shows of 2018 has broken the hearts of many fans with its ending. Many believe that a second season is warranted, even though it is highly unlikely.  The attention that the show has gained is partly thanks to its stunning cast which includes Chen Kun, who plays the role of Ning Yi and Ni Ni who plays Feng Zhiwei.

This show was telecast way back in 2001 and marked Chen Kun's debut appearance on TV. The actor plays one of the lead roles in this multi-starrer and his character is his namesake. The show is about how the lives of different individuals cross paths and the role that fate plays in their lives is the highlight of the show. Love Story in Shanghai is a melodrama that is quite different from Chen Kun's most recent work, The Rise of Phoenixes. The show is directed by Zhao Bao Gang and Wang Jun and has 30 episodes in total. It also stars Lu Yi, Zhou Xun and Luo Hai Qiong.
