As a court drama that continues to be watched by all the people who eat melons, "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" has gorgeously shifted from the dog abuse mode to the sadistic heart mode, so that the audience can see that it is called a liver and gallbladder split~
Since the TV series turned to the tragic route, the various villains in the play have gradually "straightened up their waists", among which the old lovers of Shi Siming and the princess concubine are naturally indispensable, not only stealing love behind the back of the prince, but also causing the love tragedy of the "bullet curtain couple", especially Shi Siming, a scheming court official, which is a time bomb laid for the future chaos of Anshi.
However, when Shi Da, played by Lu Xingyu, appeared on the scene, the audience couldn't help but be happy: Oh, this is not An Lushan's old brother, how did he become Shi Siming again!? More netizens joked: Lu Xingyu alone is enough!
Thinking that year, An Lushan in "Eight Arrays of Gods and Ghosts" fascinated the audience, and today, many years later, Shi Siming, who has a deep mind, has more of a deep hiding after the experience. In the face of the two culprits of the Anshi chaos in history, Lu Xingyu found it very interesting, perhaps this is also a kind of fate with the character.
However, Lu Xingyu admitted that although they are all historical figures, this time the "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" is more of a positive drama, showing a tyrant who is in his prime, and the "Eight Arrays of Gods and Ghosts" of that year has some mysterious colors, shaping a handsome and imaginary An Lushan.
Mention the "Eight Arrays of Gods and Ghosts", which can trigger a series of green onion memories that can trigger countless people (let's expose the age together!). At that time, Lu Xingyu was also a small fresh meat that was active in the audience's sight, but he himself joked: he was already twenty-five or six years old when he debuted, and he was not a small fresh meat
"Water Moon Cave Heaven", "Legend of the Spirit Mirror", "Eight Arrays of Gods and Ghosts", "Young King"... These mentions make people nostalgic to the tearful drama that was a hot year, Yin Tianqi, An Lushan, Sang Qiuyu... Lu Xingyu also printed one character after another in the audience's mind through these works (in other words, the green, tender face ah ~~)
Many years have passed, although the "fresh meat is no longer", but after the experience of Lu Xingyu faded the youth of the year, more mature and steady. Now it is the most exuberant stage of his creation, the drama road is wider, the span of all ages can be shouldered, and the acting skills are more and more precipitated.
Last year's Xian Xia drama "Xuan Xian Qingyunzhi" set off a ratings wave on the screen, Lu Xingyu played in the play Cangsong Daoren although not the protagonist, but let the audience deeply impressed by his acting skills, this extremely complex character also made Lu Xingyu once deeply touched.
"Acting in each scene is a special pleasure, which allows me to experience the pain, anxiety, anger, and anger in the character's heart, and that feeling is particularly enjoyable, as if living in the heart of the character of CangSong, seeing that everyone and everything has the attitude and judgment of Cangsong." The Cang Song in the play is hateful but has a strong tragic color, which makes Lu Xingyu, who is completely immersed in the characters, almost present a state of "drama madness" when shooting.
In the play, the scene in which Cang Song's identity is revealed and counts the hundreds of years of grievances in the main hall is the most tense one, and the repressed outbreak makes the audience fully feel his heart-rending anger and pain.
And when summoning Qingyu to his side, from a trace of expectation to sadness to despair, although it was only a short moment, the flow of his eyes made all the waves in his heart reflected, and at this moment, the audience had a heartache and pity for Cangsong.
However, who would have thought that this scene of the emotional explosion against the crowd was actually filmed by Lu Xingyu alone in front of the empty hall, although this is equivalent to a "no physical" performance, but Lu Xingyu is fully devoted, and the surrounding staff are infected with this atmosphere to tears after the shooting.
"The character of Cang Song is a character I like very much, in addition to the description of him in the novel, this time the screenwriter has re-explored some creative excavations for him, and I have tried my best to make him a more emotionally rich character." In addition to showing the emotional entanglement between the characters in the play, what Cang Song has seen and experienced in these years, what makes him so cynical, what makes him suspicious of all this, Lu Xingyu added more exploration of human nature in the interpretation.
For the villain, Lu Xingyu has acted a lot before and after, but every time he can create a feeling of love and hate in the role, refuse to face the character, find the humanity of the character and expand, extreme, and wonderful all the contradictions and conflicts, after a long period of speculation and interpretation, he can always have his own feelings and understanding in the shaping of the villain.
In the play, he is a "drama idiot" who is addicted to acting, and outside the play, he is a high-quality man who knows life and loves life, and in Lu Xingyu's view, only people who understand life can better devote themselves to work.
In addition to acting, there is one thing that Lu Xingyu loves as a life, that is: cycling.
This sport has accompanied Lu Xingyu for many years, his love for locomotives is almost inseparable, start filming to ride, after the end of the work to continue to ride, no wonder when he valentine's day on Weibo posted photos, some fans joked: your Valentine's Day is spent with the locomotive! In the process of riding, Lu Xingyu not only got the scenery under his eyes, but also his thinking and perception of various problems in the wind and lightning.
This positive optimism about life also continues to work, erudite, strong memory, more observation of life, this is Lu Xingyu believes that it is very important to do several things, only in this way can we really feel the growth experience of mastering the role, in order to really play the character.
"Sometimes the actor is like this, you live in the character, and then in his world to express the feelings and feelings that you have not had in your life, it is a particularly beautiful experience." 」 He felt that there was nothing happier about being an actor who could work in his favorite profession while still supporting himself.
Every year to experience the joys and sorrows of various characters, each year to integrate into a different soul, this year is the same, a year full of work is destined to be another hard year, but as he said, although hard, but enjoy it!
Super Cass: The costume court drama "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" is being broadcast, in which you play the villain Role Shi Siming, who has created many villains in your acting career, how do you grasp this type of image?
Lu Xingyu: Playing a negative character, my experience is that the first is to refuse to face, the second is to find the humanity of the character, what kind of person he is, the character determines the fate, so if he is a person, he must have humanity, then he does bad things He also starts from the perspective of people. The third is to try to expand, maximize, and optimize all the points of contradiction and conflict.
Super Cass: The first reaction of many viewers to see you playing Shi Siming is to think of An Lushan in "Eight Arrays" that year, and successively starred as the two culprits of the "Anshi Rebellion".
Lu Xingyu: This question is very interesting, because it is true that I played An Lushan a few years ago, but the difference is that the play is a little bit of a fantasy drama, a little bit of a sense of drama, and this time "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" may be more formal. In fact, I want to find their shining point in them as much as possible, because after all, neither play is a real and realistic historical drama. So most of the things he experienced, except for some historical shadows, were events fabricated by the screenwriter. On this basis, I still focus on their attachment to feelings and a respect for people's friendship. Find these shining points of humanity in them, and at the same time aggravate his contradictions with other things and other characters in the drama, and then expand him to shape these two characters. The difference between the two of them is that An Lushan is a handsome An Lushan, and I could have the opportunity to shape a handsome hypothetical An Lushan at that time, while Shi Siming in "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" still respects historical facts in terms of styling, playing a middle-aged tyrant in his prime.
Super Cass: You have also created many historical figures, such as Li Yan in "Li Bai", Nomin in "Heaven and Earth People's Hearts", including Shi Siming this time, etc., some of them have a large age span, in what way to get close to the feelings of the characters when interpreting?
Lu Xingyu: I have indeed created several such characters, from young to old, with a large span, and have also received praise from many people, directors, producers, including audiences. In addition to a little talent for acting and my efforts, the most important thing is to find the process of the growth of this character, according to the plot of the screenwriter to find out what kind of impact these events have on this character, and then let him portray the hardships and joys experienced in these growth processes from time to time in the future growth, engrave him in it, and then add the changes in the body that has been made up, so that it can present a complete character that is vivid, developed, and grown.
Super Cass: In the Xian Xia drama "Xuan Xian Qingyunzhi", the Cang Song you played left a deep impression on everyone, according to our understanding, in many scenes of the shooting you are very sad and sad, so when an actor fully enters the state of the role, what is the experience?
Lu Xingyu: The role of Cang Song is a character I like very much, in addition to the description of him in the novel, this time the screenwriter has re-explored some creative excavations for him. In a drama like this with a lot of small fresh meat and young children, I tried my best to make him a more emotionally rich character. For example, in addition to the simple emotions they play, I want to add a real and real exploration of a person's humanity, that is, what he has seen and experienced over the years, in the process of growing up, what has made him so cynical, what has made him doubt all this. That is, he saw that he respected people who could kill other people's lives, other people's happiness, and even other people's lives just because some of the reasons that some people thought were right. At the same time, as long as a person is put on a hat, a person's life may be burdened with discrimination from others, attacks by others, and indifference from others. It was because of a hat and a noun that Cang Song saw that his brother was being treated in this way, in fact, he was indignant about it, he wanted to change this, but he did not have this ability, he had been accumulating this hatred. When I play this role, I bring all of my above analysis of these feelings to the experience of each scene and each line, with a kind of inherent emotional adventure of the character to understand each scene, to make judgments on each plot. For example, the love for The Shocking Feather, the tantrum toward the Shocking Feather, and the opinions of approval or disapproval of the other division brothers are all shaped by the distinctive personality caused by the character's encounter. At the same time, each scene is particularly enjoyable, and there is a feeling that can make me feel the inner pain of the characters, the anxiety of the heart, the anger in the heart, and the anger in the heart, and the feeling is particularly enjoyable, as if living in the heart of the character of Cangsong, seeing everyone and everything has the attitude and judgment of Cangsong.
Super Cass: You were a small piece of fresh meat when you first debuted, and now you are more like an elder type of role, in your opinion, what kind of existence is the passage of time for an actor? Do you have any age concerns?
Lu Xingyu: Haha! This is a sensitive and interesting topic right now. In fact, when I debuted, I was not a small fresh meat, because I studied dance for more than ten years, worked in the China Opera and Dance Theater for two years, and then had the opportunity to go to Hong Kong WIRELESS to be admitted to the TVB artist training class, and then I had the opportunity to engage in this industry. To be honest, I was twenty-five or six years old when I switched to film and television, so strictly speaking, I was not a small fresh meat, but because of my long-term sports and my cheerful personality, my face looked relatively young haha! In fact, an actor, the most important thing is not fresh or not fresh, I played a lot of roles, in fact, I was not big at that time, but I acted from eighteen to seventy or eighty. I think if an actor uses the right way to understand characters, then I don't think age is a first question for him to consider, or a very serious problem. Because if he really enters the role, he will solve these gaps, and he will overcome these problems, plus the makeup teacher, plus the help of some special effects, it will not be too much of a problem. On the contrary, how to portray a character vividly and vividly can arouse my interest, and it is also a problem that I care about and pay attention to. As I've gotten older, I actually like my age even more. Because to be honest, when I was twenty-five or six years old, we Chinese mainland especially despised small fresh meat, you are handsome, a lot of crews, many famous directors, he hates you, he thinks you have no personality, how do he think you are, because at that time, China's economy may not be very good, not so developed now, so everyone is willing to look at some of the more popular faces, or less jumpy faces. Maybe it felt closer to what we call life, so I wasn't popular as a small fresh meat at that time. So deep down, I also expect to grow up and mature early, to create some really good characters. Like Mr. Chen Daoming, like Mr. Chen Baoguo, there are more well-known and genuine characters portrayed by old artists, which I have been looking forward to. So when I was young, I looked forward to this day. So now that I am getting older and feel that I can play some of these roles, there may be a rise in China where small fresh meat is more popular. However, sometimes there is also a little bit of a feeling of creating and making people, can not say that it is uneven, it is still very funny, in fact, it is to tease people. But, to be honest, deep down I still prefer the opportunity to create characters with rich personalities, rich upbringings, and rich backgrounds. Today, an actor like me, at this age, should be the most exuberant age of creation, just hope that there are more good roles and good drama and good repertoire to fall on me, I am satisfied.
Super Cass: In your opinion, is the transformation of an actor a natural thing or a more difficult challenge?
Lu Xingyu: This question is basically the same as above. For me personally, in fact, the age change of the characters is not very large. Rather, if a character's background is particularly rich, and a character's experience growing up in the drama is particularly complicated, it is indeed very challenging and very laborious. Because the complexity of a person's growth experience may cause his personality to become complicated, in order to play this role, you must master more of his experience in the performance process, which is a challenge for an actor, you have to be knowledgeable, to remember, to observe life.
Super Cass: There are many characters you create that are not the main characters but can impress the audience very much, for this type of character, how to achieve not only the protagonist's scene but also make him shine to the greatest extent?
Lu Xingyu: Actually, I will correct this problem, some old seniors once told me that this is not called stealing drama. Because for drama, everyone has their own different names, different stories, and different looks, and they can't steal other people's plays. Before it was called choking drama, what is choking drama, that is, stimulating each other with the opponent, and mutually enriching the dramatic conflict, which is called a good actor, called choking drama. In fact, let's talk about the white dots to give each other steps, let the opponent rise higher, you give me a step, I give you a step, the drama superimposed, the whole plot is more plump. Therefore, there is no so-called robbery of other people's plays, what you really have to do is to interpret a character more wonderfully according to your own personality, you vividly interpret it, automatically others will feel the fresh breath of your character, he can be very relaxed and comfortable with you on this emotion, and the two people will enter a more engaged state to perform.
Super Cass: In your recent works, most of them are mainly costume plays and period plays, is there any type of character that you want to challenge in modern drama?
Lu Xingyu: Fashion dramas are a bit of a preference for me. For example, the image of a soldier, such as the image of a policeman, for example, an entrepreneurial entrepreneur is also what I want to portray. Hope it! In my future work, I will have the opportunity to meet some of my favorite characters.
Super Cass: Are there any plans and arrangements for the next step?
Lu Xingyu: Now that the new year has begun, I am filming the historical drama "The World Under Chang'an", in which I play the character of Du Yan. This character is amazing! He is such a figure who does not regard the emperor as the emperor but regards the emperor's career as his own, which is interesting! It is also expected that this year will play a suitable character in another particularly famous fairy tale drama. In short, this year's work is full of queues, very much looking forward to, it is estimated that it is another hard year, but enjoy it. What could be happier than being an actor who can work in a profession you love while still supporting yourself? Thank you to all the people who support me and love me, you are my greatest motivation. Thank you for your continued concern and help, please continue to support me, I will try to bring you more new surprises.
