[accio-victuuri]

this is the text version of his recent fox factory interview video ( via sohu.com ) 🎤

Xiao Zhan shared recent happy events and praised netizens for their excellent interpretation of "Yu Gu Yao"

Xiao Zhan's perception and control can still be seen in the character Shiying. After reading through the script, the key word of the character that flashed in his mind was "listener", which is perception; enriching the character's history for Shiying and designing action details that are not in the script are in the control of the actor.

He felt that replays should be taken 200% seriously. The same is true for the famous scenes of Xinghai Yunting and Ten Thousand Tribulations Hell in "Yu Gu Yao". He also advocates integrating the character's nature and experience into the character's words and deeds, and believes that the rationality of the interpretation is very important, but the most important thing is to ensure that the state of acting is comfortable. "If the actors themselves are uncomfortable acting, no matter how much design you do, it will actually be useless."

After the show was broadcast, he received a lot of comments from the audience, including in-depth interpretations of the plot and characters. In Xiao Zhan's view, these interpretations and comments come from the audience who like the series from the bottom of their hearts, and receiving their opinions is also an inspiration for the actors.

Conversation with Xiao Zhan: Recently, I mainly take classes and don’t have much time to go surfing

Sohu Entertainment: Want to know why you chose "Yu Gu Yao" among a bunch of scripts?

Xiao Zhan: Because it is different from some scripts I have read before. All the plots in it are very reasonable, very smooth, everyone is a part of all living beings, everyone has only this chance in life, so every choice you make, every thing you experience is more precious .

Sohu Entertainment: What is the scene you most want to shoot after reading the script?

Xiao Zhan: Of course, what I look forward to the most is the hell of ten thousand calamities. I want to take off the robes of God, and then I want to be a mortal again.

Sohu Entertainment: Is it the scene of taking off the robe?

Xiao Zhan: Right.

Sohu Entertainment: I haven't seen it yet. Why do you want to shoot that scene the most?

Xiao Zhan: Because there is a lot of room for imagination, I want to know what it will look like when it is shot, and how its special effects will be presented in the end.

Sohu Entertainment: Have you watched it?

Xiao Zhan: Of course I have seen it, I dubbed it myself.

Sohu Entertainment: I feel that you have a very good manner in the costume dramas. I think you are hanging on the wire. If someone is hanging on the wire, just go up. If you step on the air twice, you will feel that you are really there. you know how to fly. Is it your own way of handling ancient costumes and manners?

Xiao Zhan: I think this is due to our martial arts teacher, who teaches well.

Sohu Entertainment: You still have that series of movements of turning around, hiding Zhu Yan in your sleeves and then saluting.

Xiao Zhan: It seems that we discussed it with the director on the set. Because the script only said to hide Zhu Yan in the sleeve, but it didn’t tell you whether you want to rotate or what, and then I just wore clothes, and I said I’ll try it, is there a way? , it is both beautiful and neat, and it is also in line with the beauty and aesthetics. It has the beauty in the sleeves, so we tried this one.

Sohu Entertainment: Flowing clouds and flowing water, it seems that you designed it yourself, and there are those who take a scroll and click on the air to say "don't flatter", it seems that you designed it yourself.

Xiao Zhan: Yes, it definitely is.

Sohu Entertainment: You said that Shiying is a listener. I want to know if this is a positioning of yourself in the performance after you understand the characters in the early stage, or is it something you have explored bit by bit?

Xiao Zhan: Actually, when I read the script, a keyword flashed in my mind. He rarely talks about his inner feelings. He is more of a role of a very reliable listener.

Sohu Entertainment: When writing a character, the screenwriter will write a biography of the character. I wonder if you will form your own, similar to the biography of the character?

Xiao Zhan: Yes, the biography I wrote is actually about Shiying, he left the imperial palace when he was a child, and then went to Jiuyi Mountain, and spent the years on the mountain by himself. Because there is no explanation in the script, so I wrote about how he spent this time on the mountain.

Sohu Entertainment: Is it the kind of enriching the history of the character, not the generalization of the character?

Xiao Zhan: Maybe everyone's way is different. For "Yuguyao", my method is to make up for some lack in the script that are not described, so that I can better understand this character. According to different scripts and different characters, we will make some different adjustments.

Sohu Entertainment: Some netizens have interpreted that it is because Da Si Ming called you Yinger, and then you may have never been a master, so you just learned the way of Da Si Ming.

Xiao Zhan: It makes sense, maybe this is the reason. In fact, sometimes I really admire them. A lot of what they wrote really touched my heart.

Sohu Entertainment: Because your performance has been picked up by everyone, it means you performed well.

Xiao Zhan: Thank you.

Sohu Entertainment: Do you know what is the big house that everyone dreams of now?

Xiao Zhan: Big house, what is it?

So hu Entertainment: It's your sleeve. Do you have something to say to your friends who want to make a home in Time Shadow's sleeve?

Xiao Zhan: This clothes can also be washed, what should I do if it gets wet?

Sohu Entertainment: I can come out for a while and let others stay for a while. Do you have air conditioning in your big sleeves, we are really hot.

Xiao Zhan: I probably don’t know about this, so I have to ask Xiao Zhu Zhu.

Sohu Entertainment: After watching the behind the scenes, I realized that you designed the scene where Zhu Yan got drunk, so you taught him how to pull your sleeves and so on.

Xiao Zhan: In fact, it was not designed by me. It was actually a result of everyone's joint discussion. She can add some of the wildness of the princess from the west, or the kind of freedom and wantonness in it, don't be too obedient. So I thought about what it would be like for her to be drunk and crazy, and then I discussed it with Xiao Min on the spot. She also thought it was ok, and the most important thing is that she herself is comfortable. If the actor herself is not comfortable acting, No matter how much design you do, it is actually useless.

Sohu Entertainment: Episode 35 has the famous scene of Xinghai Yunting, absolutely, I have already watched that part in advance, because I went to watch the drama in advance, and after I saw it, I immediately sent a text message to my friend, The thirty-fifth episode of Xiao Zhan's acting skills is a godsend, you must watch it. It turned out that you actually said something to the director during the filming of the sideshow, your tears fell too early, and then you had to change it.

Xiao Zhan: Because of the heavy scene, we must treat it 200%, because it gives Shiying very few lines. At this time, I just want to see if my beloved is sad for me, if she is for me When I am sad, I am happy.

Sohu Entertainment: I read that there is a passage in the original book, that is, there is a faint smile in the eyes.

Xiao Zhan: The screenwriter will feel that it hurts the design, isn't this intentionally abusing Xiao Zhuzhu? But I think that only in this way can Shiying be a very lively person. We discussed this bridge for a long time, for a few days. Then in the end the director also felt that it was ok, so we followed this method, and there was the last paragraph. The last paragraph is actually just two sentences. Will you be sad when I die? Will it be more sad than when that person died? Actually It's short, so it's more stressful for me. Because your words are few, but you have to add emotion. When I looked at the monitor for the first two, I felt that the emotions were released too early, because in fact, you should be in sync with the audience at this time, and the audience doesn’t know how Zhu Yan will answer you, so you can’t advance emotions, so I told the director that we have another one, and I said that tears are too early, and I should cry after I get the answer.

Sohu Entertainment: Thank you, let me say thank you Xiao Zhan, for letting me see the famous scene. The scene of taking off the god robe is to be hanged in the air to be tortured. I wonder if this is the most difficult torture scene in the drama?

Xiao Zhan: Yes, it is very difficult, because it requires cooperation in all aspects, such as photography, lighting, props, and all aspects, because it requires me to hang up. If he didn't give me strength, my hands would be fake and float in the air, so he tied my hands up for a while, and then I asked them to lift them up and bring them to me. Hurry, your hands should have been worn out at the time, but when you were acting, you didn’t think about it at all. Your body was also going through an uncomfortable process like this, and your emotions happened to be in the same place. It's a very sad emotion, so the two of them just merged together, but it was a very correct scene. I really didn't think about whether my hands hurt or my feet hurt. I remember the director told me that you must imagine that the lightning is introduced from your hand to your body. I want to say, this is too difficult, and I have never been shocked, what should I do. It is reasonable to say that the current is drawn first, and there must be a perception in the hand and then to the body.

Sohu Entertainment: Did you know that when you were tortured in pain and blended into the emotions of the characters, the extras all lay down and watched you?

Xiao Zhan: Ah really?

Sohu Entertainment: What kind of props might they want to control.

Xiao Zhan: I really didn’t pay attention.

Sohu Entertainment: Mom, today I lay down and watched Xiao Zhan act. "Yuguyao" also used the original sound, and then you changed into a little white beast, and after changing into Hakimi, you also changed your voice.

Xiao Zhan: There is no such misunderstanding, I did not change, I did not change the voice line.

Sohu Entertainment: You have become cute.

Xiao Zhan: Well, this is still my own voice.

Sohu Entertainment: It just became cute.

Xiao Zhan: Thank you little white beast, thank you for making me cute.

Sohu Entertainment: After the Great Shenlong came out, everyone was talking about what to do. Our Kongsang seemed to be doomed, so we used Hakimi to compare the Great Shenlong.

Xiao Zhan: It won't be over, it won't be over, how can it be over when there is a time.

Sohu Entertainment: If you want to walk on the bridge of chaotic heart now, and you have to share a happy thing about you recently to cross the bridge, what would you share?

Xiao Zhan: "Yuguyao" is finally aired, and this happy bridge can extend directly from the head of the bridge to the end of the bridge

Sohu Entertainment: Seeing that everyone likes "Yuguyao" so much?

Xiao Zhan: It directly pierced the bridge of the heart, right?

Sohu Entertainment: For the first episode "Where Dreams Begin", the video of primary school students making friends shocked the whole Internet. I want to know if you have any jokes?

Xiao Zhan: Yes, I was laughing all the time during the filming, the three of us laughed non-stop, and I filmed three times, twice.

Sohu Entertainment: Very professional.

Xiao Zhan: Anyway, it’s just for fun.

Sohu Entertainment: I look forward to seeing you bring us such an explosive publicity method again, and we must continue to work hard next time. It feels like your surfing speed will keep up during the broadcast.

Xiao Zhan: Recently, I mainly take classes, and I don’t have much time to go surfing.

Sohu Entertainment: Then I will test you. Do you know what it is, the bone of "Yu Gu Yao".

Xiao Zhan: That’s the literal meaning, isn’t it.

Sohu Entertainment: I want to ask if you have picked up any new memes?

Xiao Zhan: There are no new memes, as I just said, I saw some netizens wrote their own understanding of "Yu Guyao", just like when "Meng Hai" was broadcast before, everyone had their own understanding . I think I really like watching this kind of stuff, because I think it will inspire me. I like this drama from the bottom of my heart, I like this plot, I like this character, I think it is very interesting.

Sohu Entertainment: I will post 10 when I go back today.
