The first international appearances Liang showed as B-Junior at the Junior World Championships 2009 in Sherbrooke, Canada . There he achieved fourth place over 500 meters as the best individual result and also won the silver medal with the Chinese relay. In the next season, the now 17-year-old made his first World Cup appearances over 500 meters . After he was eliminated in the preliminary races at the opening competitions in Seoul and in his home town of Beijing , he made it to the A final at the World Cup final in Marquette . There he was disqualified as the cause of the fall of the South Korean Sung Si-bak and thus finally took fourth place. This was enough to qualify for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver , where he was part of the eleven-member Chinese short track team. At the Olympics, he started in all four races and was particularly successful in the 1500 meters, where he was initially a thousandth of a second faster than Canadian co-favorite Charles Hamelin and then became the only Chinese to advance to the A final. There were several changes in leadership there; Initially, Liang was also partly at the top. However, he eventually fell back to sixth after being involved in a fall and was more than half a minute behind the medal ranks. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi , he finished fourth in the 500m final.
