His early film roles were supporting parts: a delinquent youth in the drama *Mom!* (妈妈!, 2022), and Wu Zhifeng, a Yunnan border-defense armed police soldier, in the 2023 action film *Endless Journey* (绝地追击).[1](https://www.iq.com/actor-info/%E6%A2%81%E6%B0%B8%E6%A3%8B-liang-yongqi-244303005?lang=zh_cn) • [5](https://www.onlineylc.org/stars/362.html) None of these early works brought him wide recognition.[6](https://yule.360.com/detail/3758150)
## Breakthrough with The Double
**The Double.** In June 2024 Liang co-starred with [Wu Jinyan](https://www.edgepedia.org/wu-jinyan) and Wang Xingyue in the costume drama *The Double* ([墨雨云间](https://www.edgepedia.org/the-double-tv-series)), playing Shen Yurong, the former husband of the heroine Xue Fangfei.[1](https://www.iq.com/actor-info/%E6%A2%81%E6%B0%B8%E6%A3%8B-liang-yongqi-244303005?lang=zh_cn) • [7](https://www.newton.com.tw/wiki/%E6%A2%81%E7%A5%BA%E9%A0%86/50473046) The paranoid, brooding character earned him the nickname "ex-husband brother" (前夫哥) among viewers and made him widely known.[8](https://ent.sina.cn/2026-08-01/detail-inikuwef0513759.d.html?oid=dwin%E3%80%9008.CYOU%E3%80%91.qnos&vt=4) • [6](https://yule.360.com/detail/3758150) He was one of the few actors in the series who performed with his own voice rather than a dubbing actor, and his line delivery was noted as a strength by audiences.[6](https://yule.360.com/detail/3758150)
His move to Huanyu came through the producer Yu Zheng, who announced in 2023 that he had selected Liang from about 600 newcomers to join the company.[6](https://yule.360.com/detail/3758150)
## Film work in 2024
