Early life

In Grade 8, Lu began to learn Peking Opera and Chinese Kung Fu. At the age of 14, Lu was admitted to the Shanghai Children Art Theatre, and has appeared in more than 70 stage plays. In 2007 at the age of 18, Lu enrolled into the Shanghai Theatre Academy.[3]
Career
Lu made his debut in the television series, Never Close the Eye. Then still a student at Shanghai Theatre Academy, Lu was launched to national stardom. He won the Best Actor and Most Popular Actor awards in the Golden Eagle Awards.[4][5]
His following works established his position in the industry. In 2001, he starred in the popular period piece Love Story in Shanghai and played Bao Jingtian in historical drama Young Justice Bao II.[6][7] The subsequent year, he won the Best Actor award at the Top Ten China TV Arts for his performance in the youth drama Field of Dreams.[8] His 2003 drama, Boy & Girl which co-stars Ruby Lin became the highest rated drama of the year.[9] Lu also ventured to films, starring in romantic film Fall in Love at First Sight (2002) alongside Fan Bingbing and A Time to Love with Zhao Wei – both earned him nominations at prestigious award ceremonies such as the Hundred Flowers Award and Changchun Film Festival.[10][11] Lu also featured in Tsui Hark's wuxia film Seven Swords.[12]
Lu's following works were successful, and established him as one of China's premier actors.
