If you could go back to being 18, what would you want to do? With the popularity of Fan Chengcheng and Yang Zi's new drama "Love for a Long Time" on Jiangsu Satellite TV, similar topics have aroused heated discussions among many audiences. But for Fan Chengcheng, if he can go back to 18 years old, he hopes that he will be less confused and more determined, and he will think about this issue seriously during the interview, and he wants to say to himself, "The future Fan Chengcheng is an actor and singer who is working hard, and he is realizing his dream little by little." , a post-00s who debuted in 2018, is singing and acting, and Fan Chengcheng is indeed realizing his dream little by little, as he said.
Say the character
The biggest challenge is the age span of the characters
"To Love for a Long Time" is adapted from Sakura Sixteen's ** "Who Do You Like at Seventeen", which tells the story of several childhood sweethearts who grow up with each other and regain their original intentions after experiencing separation and reunion. Different from youth dramas in the traditional sense, "To Love for a Long Time" adopts a double-line narrative, and the characters "flashback" between the ages of 17 and 30, which undoubtedly poses a considerable challenge to the actors' acting skills. "The age span of this drama is relatively large, and there must be a big difference between a person's 17-year-old and 30-year-old status, and this growth process is quite challenging for me."
In the play, Fan Chengcheng plays the role of "game designer" Jiang Yi, and Huang Yingzi played by Yang Zi can be said to be childhood sweethearts and two little guesses. Huang Yingzi has always been the most special existence in Jiang Yi's heart, whether it was in the past or now, his feelings for her have not changed. Jiang Yi, Huang Yingzi and others in the play are all post-90s, and the story mainly focuses on their high school life, that is, the beginning of the 21st century. But Fan Chengcheng was only a few years old at that time, and he didn't have much impression of the surrounding environment. How to perform the state of the post-90s generation and make the post-90s generation resonate is also a difficult problem in front of him. For this reason, Fan Chengcheng also did a lot of homework before joining the group, "I communicated with friends and staff around me, asking them what they liked to eat and play when they were young, what kind of troubles they had, what they would be happy about, etc., and they would actually have some feelings after chatting more." ”
Talk about partners
and Yang Zi are both "talkers".
This is the first time Fan Chengcheng has cooperated with Yang Zi, and when it comes to the feeling of playing for the first time, Fan Chengcheng said that happiness and pressure coexist. He revealed, "Yang Zi is a little girl next door in private, very lively and cute, and she is a 'talker' like me." We've become really good friends with the crew, we're always putting out, amusing each other, and a lot of fun things happen every day."
Of course, Yang Zi, who debuted as a child star and has rich experience in filming, also put a lot of pressure on Fan Chengcheng. "Ah Zi's acting skills are recognized by everyone as good, so it is still more stressful to play with her, I will continue to increase the pressure on myself, hoping to give the opponent better emotional feedback, so that Huang Yingzi and Jiang Yi look more sparkling."
Talk about feelings
The most regrettable thing is that I didn't play well
In the play, Jiang Yi has silently liked Huang Yingzi since he was young, and he has not changed a bit until the year of his establishment. This kind of simple, unadulterated like touched many audiences. In Fan Chengcheng's view, Huang Yingzi's warm family was something Jiang Yi did not have in his childhood, so when he first arrived in Hangtiancheng, his feelings for Huang Yingzi were the most special. So much so that many years later, the person Jiang Yi cares about the most has always been Huang Yingzi. ”
However, rather than love, Fan Chengcheng prefers to regard this feeling of adolescence as an ignorant heartbeat. "When I was a student, I talked about love a little too deeply, and I think it was more of an inexplicable heartbeat, and I would unconsciously pay attention to it and care about it unconsciously. Looking back on his youth life, Fan Chengcheng said that his biggest regret was that he couldn't play basketball better, "I am very envious of seeing young children playing basketball so well now." If I could go back to my youth, I would practice harder! ”
