    var value = expression.Compile().Invoke(html.ViewData.Mod开发者_如何学运维el);//problem that is value is null

(applies to the original question)

Given the signature, you should just need:

return Convert.ToString(
    expression.Compile().Invoke(modelInstance)
);

You can also do this by inspection of the expression if absolutely needed.

Use ModelMetadata.FromLambdaExpression Method and then its property Model
