The new film he starred in was "Thien Duong Ca Trai" (former name: Ho Yeu Thuong Hong Nuong - Vuong Quoc Thien).
The work was produced by Hang Tinh Dan Luc, with the participation of Ly Nhat Dong, Quach Tuan Than, Truong Tri Nghiao, Dam Khai, Pham Minh and many promising young faces.
In "Thien Duong Ca Trai Tam", Thanh Nghi plays the role of Vuong Quyen Phu Quy - a young man raised as a " Supremate Weapon" of Nhat Khi Minh to destroy ghosts. His life changed when he met Thanh Dong (Ly Nhat Dong) - a spider protein lover who mixed in her fake fake as a spy. From a difficult pre-determined relationship, the two together go through a journey to regain freedom and the desire for "heaven under the great sky".
On the first day of broadcasting, the film "Thien Duong Ca Trai Tam" set two impressive records in 2025: becoming the fastest film to reach the 10,000 Temperature mark (after only 80 minutes) and having the highest temperature on the first day on iQIYI, reaching 8020 points. However, after a few days of broadcasting, the average number of views of the film has only fluctuated around 18-19 million views, not breaking through.
In return, the film received positive feedback from the audience thanks to its beautiful effects, magnificent action scenes and meticulous music. Thanh Nghi is praised for his calm demeanor and delicate expressions, while Ly Nhat Dong scores points for his gentle, elegant beauty. The scenes using CGI, especially the scene of Han Dam covered in white snow, are considered " luxurious" and contribute to raising the overall image.
Although the number of views has not really exploded, the film "Thien Duong Ca Trai" is still considered a step forward to help Thanh Nghi somewhat regain his reputation after the long slide of " Vuong Quoc". The film shows his efforts to regain his place in the historical drama genre that is fiercely competitive in Chinese television.
