Because "Love Is Delicious,"
Wang Ju and Li Chun became a reality
Really good friends.
This drama,
For the three girls who play their girlfriends in the play,
It's all a wonderful journey.
There is no difference between inside and outside the play,
The first time you see each other,
Just taste each other and like each other.
Restore the real filming scene: Li Chunhou Wang Ju arrived at the dressing room step by step, saw Wang Ju who was making up her hair, and lovingly shouted "Ju Ju" at the door; the two took a group photo link, from time to time, Wang Ju's boyfriend forced Max to "hold" Li Chun, the two laughed forward and backward, Li Chun finished shooting first, hugged Wang Ju before leaving, and the two of them had made an appointment to continue dating the next day...
There are many such clips, no wonder when the question session asked which boy the two would choose in the play, they all said invariably: Don't choose a man, we choose each other!
So, for Wang Ju and Li Chun, what is love?
Love is waiting
Three years ago, "Love Is Delicious" was still in the preparatory stage, and the first role set by director Chen Zhengdao was Wang Ju.
I remember the first time the two met was at a friend's party. Chen Zhengdao told her that he had a very interesting project in hand and hoped to start as soon as possible. The name was set as early as that time, and I hoped to invite Wang Ju to play one of the characters.
At that time, the script had only come out for four episodes, and everything had not yet been settled. Wang Ju gladly agreed to his offer, but this was two years. "There are a lot of things in this industry, a lot of projects are mentioned by others, and then there is no follow-up, not so much worry, but expectation." It is expected that this project can be officially landed as soon as possible. ”
When the shooting really started, Wang Ju's excitement was greater than the tension. The first time I acted in a TV series, I was in a state of panic for the first three days of shooting, "At the beginning I was eager to see some feedback from the director, whether it was good or bad, but the director is the kind of emotion that you can hardly guess their emotions, don't know if they think the last one is good or bad, he will only tell you what he wants." 」 ”
The process of shooting is also a process of continuous learning for Wang Ju. "Xia Meng is a very strong girl in her career, and my initial understanding is that she is very strong externally and internally, so in a scene where she and Wang Jichong quarrel, I also acted very strongly. After Director Chen adjusted my performance, it made me feel that this is closer to ordinary people, and it is more upright when working, but in the intimate relationship with friends or herself, she shows a soft part, as a girlfriend, she will still coax her boyfriend. ”
Love is self-talk
The most profound scene in Wang Ju's memory is the finale, where three people wear wedding dresses and talk to themselves when they were young.
In that scene, almost every line, every camera seat Wang Ju had tears. "I think this plot is very moving, usually I am a person who is not very imaginative, so when such a ritualistic, such a sensual thing is presented to me, I am very touched." When Xia Meng said to me when I was a child, you are too hard. There is also a past brought into the moment, and it will feel sad and moving. ”
In that scene, when I was a child, I asked a question, have you become the person you want to be? When the real-life Wang Ju faced this problem, he said: "I am definitely what I wanted to be when I was a child, but I may not have thought of such details at that time." All I could think of was that I was going to be an actor when I grew up, that I wanted to be on TV, and that I would wear beautiful dresses. I yearn for the stage and like the applause of the audience. But at that time, I didn't know what effort it would take to achieve such a dream, or what setbacks it would take. ”
In the past, Wang Ju may have suffered a little more from gain and loss, but now she has learned to try to maintain a stable state in life, not too happy, not too sad, and more calm in the face of many things.
Love is a chess match for the opponent
Like Li Chun, in the face of the two boys in the play, Wang Ju in reality will not choose one.
"As the actor of Xia Meng, I understand her every choice. Xia Meng is very strong, but inside she has some inferiority for her appearance and figure. Lu Bin didn't care about her, and didn't need her to make up for her inferiority through good work or strong ability. He accepted Xia Meng in its entirety, not the powerful Xia Meng in everyone's mouth, but the Xia Dream that unloaded those auras and faced the sky. For Xia Meng, meeting someone who can fully accept herself makes her feel at ease and moved. ”
Wang Ju said that if it was a few years ago, Wang Ju, who had not yet learned to accept himself, would have been impressed by a boy like Lu Bin. "But I'm past that stage now, and now I'm looking forward to someone who appreciates me and supports all the things I love to do." Many people will feel that as an artist, it will be more difficult to fall in love, and the difficult point is not the disturbance of the outside world, but whether the other party can truly understand and support your work. ”
Some viewers who have watched the play will leave a message on the Internet asking: How to meet a suitable person for themselves? Wang Ju said: "I have always felt that what kind of person you want, you have to become what kind of person first. If you want to find someone who can take care of yourself and can give you life guidance when you encounter setbacks, you first have to be that person. You don't go too high, and don't go for too low. Love is a chess match for the opponent. ”
Love is letting go
"A lot of people say that Liu Jing is an Aquarius, I said yes, you guessed it." Li Chun said.
In "Love Is Delicious", Liu Jing, played by Li Chun, likes cooking and food, but does an IT job that he does not like. In the eyes of outsiders, it is a somewhat "eccentric" girl. However, Li Chun does not think it is called "weird", she is also an Aquarius, and in a way, she and Liu Jing are isomorphic. "We call it special."
I still remember the first time I read the script, Liu Jing gave her the impression of, "A straight girl, she has tangled places, and she is very cute, and this persistence and persistence in her pursuit of her dreams is also what I like." Listening to us talk about this role is very difficult to say, Li Chun said, "I think you understand, it is really difficult, she is the kind of person who is not good at expressing herself, confessing is not alarmed, and there are already many inner dramas." Interpreting this entanglement and twisting is a challenge in itself. ”
Li Chun's appearance is purely because of his liking for the role, not with the purpose of subverting his previous image in the play. When the makeup of this drama was set, when the director first saw the effect, he said to Li Chun, I think it is still too beautiful. So, let the stylist change her to an "explosive head". "A lot of people have commented on whether I have offended the hair stylist. But in fact, this character is like this, you are too beautiful, aren't you the same as Fang Xin, Liu Jing is a bit untrimmed, let go of the self. She even dressed casually, and several times before the shooting, they said it was time to change clothes, and I said yes, I would wear this. ”
Before filming, Li Chun's biggest concern was not the character's unbeautiful styling, but the character's personality. The director's request to her is that she speak fast, accurately, fiercely, more poisonously, and easily offended. "My concern is that I have played the role of a villain in the past, and this play is also acted like this, will it make people hate me more?" Later I felt that this role was like this, she was direct, poisonous, but good heart, and she was the most calm at the critical moment. Like the scene where Fang Xin's divorce, everyone is pushing and shoving, and she is the only one who calmly analyzes the situation. I'm also getting more and more free. ”
Love is noisy
Director Chen Zhengdao said in the "Director's Notes": Li Chun himself is an extremely low-key and simple (no sense of humor) person, often using jokes as instructions to try to complete.
"I read what the director wrote, and I'm going to refute him one by one." Li Chun said amusedly, "He speaks too fast, I really think he is practicing listening." Often before he could react, he had already finished speaking. Including what they think is funny, I don't think it's funny, maybe this is where Aquarius is different from others. ”
The filming process of "Love Is Delicious" is tense and relaxed, and the relaxed thing is that the atmosphere of the whole team is very good, and the actors and directors can play and play without going up and down. Li Chun exploded a small material of Chen Zhengdao: "The director always can't stand, he walks shakily, we often joke with each other, I said how the director is always unstable, he said he was very anxious." When he was impatient, he kept moving, and he stepped on each other's left and right feet, and I said director why do you always step on yourself, he said I was trying to fix myself. ”
Li Chun used to act in costume dramas and period dramas, before this performance, she felt that compared with modern dramas, the main drama was to be "carried up" to act, "but after thinking about this period of time, my ideas are different, in fact, costume dramas can also be performed in the way of modern dramas, because you are acting people, do not fix a certain pattern for yourself, entering the role is the most important." ”
Love is a multiple choice question
In the process of filming, Li Chun asked the director the most questions: Why did Liu Jing choose Jiang Shanmu?
This is probably one of the most concerned issues for the audience after watching the play. "If you stand in Liu Jing's point of view, Shanmu is indeed a relatively mature person, you can learn a lot from him, such as life experience, life experience, judgment of a thing, how to communicate with people." I think that being with Yamaki is a more stable and down-to-earth feeling. Song Chao is actually quite unrealistic, good-looking and rich, does not like to play, and helps you without hesitation, such a person is actually quite suspended. For Liu Jing herself, what she wants to accomplish is self-worth, and if she wants to open a restaurant, you can support me and help me spiritually, but this thing still depends on herself. ”
At the end of the first season, Liu Jing hesitated in the face of Yamaki's marriage proposal. "This is actually an open-ended ending, and it is still unknown who Liu Jing will choose in the end." Li Chun said mysteriously.
That real-life Li Chun, in the face of Jiang Shanmu and Song Timeout, how will she choose?
"Neither." Li Chun smiled, "Song Chao, I think he has not grown up himself, he is still a boy, the family has money, but he himself is not very good at creating value, he will only spend money." Jiang Shanmu's situation is not too OK, the play only said part of it, in fact, there are many aspects to consider in real life. So, I chose my sisters, men don't matter. ”
Q&A
M.C. What was your impression of each other before we first met?
Wang Ju: In my memory, Chun is always playing "positive drama" and always playing bad people, and I don't know if she is close or not. But I think if a person can play a bad guy very well, it means that this person's acting skills are really good. People who play bad people usually have a smaller "baggage" on their bodies. After the actual contact, it is indeed the same, I feel that she has no temper, no matter, everything is good, everything is OK.
Li Chun: I think Ju is a particularly confident person, and I also want to be a particularly confident person. Some of the things she once said on stage, I think she is very "positive", has her own style, independent and brave. After seeing it, just like I imagined, she was quite close to the role of Xia Meng. Privately and very funny, the two of us got along very fun, there is no communication cost.
M.C. Are you the first time you see each other and feel very compatible with each other?
Wang Ju: Right. At that time, filming had not officially started, I didn't know what Director Chen really wanted at that time, I didn't quite understand the meaning and feeling of what he said, I wanted comedy but it wasn't exactly a regular comedy. Were you a little flustered at first? (Wang Ju asked Li Chun on the side)
Li Chun: Yes, I was a little worried at the beginning, and I think Ju's adaptability is very strong. On the first day of the boot, we all left after filming, and the first juju was filmed, although she was very nervous, but the director would send us a video saying that juju's scene was very good (Wang Ju laughed at the side). Our crew began to "roll in" from the moment the camera started, and the director said, you see Ju's crying scene is super good, you also have to work hard.
M.C. Is it stressful to see a video posted by the director?
Li Chun: When I shoot all the scenes, the first day will be a little anxious and nervous, I don't know how to set the style, how to set the performance method, everyone does not know, in a strange environment, it is quite difficult for me to adapt at once. And our first day of drama was three girlfriends eating hot pot together.
M.C. How does it feel to eat hot pot?
Li Chun: I don't even know how that day came.
Wang Ju: Yes, the three of us should have panicked that day, but the effect presented was OK. The director has been adjusting some small points, and has been adding more details, adding lines, actions, and connecting these things. The director speaks very quickly, and you feel that he is in a hurry. (Li Chun added on the side: We must immediately follow his ideas, complete his instructions, and the three of us must cooperate seamlessly) Yes, we speak quickly and eat at the same time. After filming that day, we never wanted to eat Chaoshan beef hot pot anymore.
M.C. You're all adapting pretty fast.
Li Chun: This kind of opportunity is rare and precious, and it is difficult to have three girls so harmonious. If the other party says a word, we can all catch it, and we are very comfortable.
Wang Ju: Sometimes when filming or communicating with peers, I feel that acting is one tone, and private communication and negotiation is another tone, because you don't know what actions and states the other party is acceptable. Our early run-in was very fast, and when we shot in the middle, everyone was very direct, and naturally said what can be done next.
M.C. The director is very powerful, he can put together three people with different styles and backgrounds, and it is just harmonious.
Li Chun: At the beginning, everyone thought that the three of us had made a variety show (after saying that, the scene was hilarious). I think the three of us don't match, maybe we recorded a variety show.
Wang Ju: I have not worried about the problem of not getting along, that is what the director considers, we just completely trust the director and perform our own plays well.
M.C. What's the warmest thing you've ever done to each other?
Wang Ju: We have all given each other gifts, once filmed on the spot, pure spraying a spray, I asked what it was, she said you spray to try it, I sprayed it and said it was really good, she gave me a can the next day.
Li Chun: We will share good things with each other, such as filming is very tired and will have dark circles, ju also gave me a beauty device. I remember last year's holiday season, Kiku also helped me put on a little makeup.
M.C. Is there any fun NG during filming?
Wang Ju: There was a scene of opening champagne, and I laughed to death. The champagne was so full of gas that I had just removed the paper from the outside, and before I could break the cork, it went straight up. Champagne sprayed wildly into my eyes and washed my eyes.
Li Chun: Yes, I also said to save her! Originally, I said to continue, but I couldn't laugh anymore, and the funniest thing was that there were still people playing the board at that time.
M.C. A big theme of "Love Is Delicious" is "Love", in such a fast era, do you think there is really such pure love?
Wang Ju: I think some of the dramatic presentations in the play are just two chasing at the moment, but in real life, this kind of same frequency situation is still relatively rare. From the point of view of choice, one of the things we want to reflect in this play is that not every girl will necessarily choose the so-called most preferred or the most preferred for outsiders. Girls should be brave enough to choose what they like, not what others think is best for you, only you know who is best for you. Therefore, the audience has been discussing after watching the drama, why did Liu Jing not choose Song Chao? Everyone thinks that Song Chao is a perfect person, rich and young, and good to you and well-behaved. When many people say that Liu Jing's role is not good, in fact, they also allude to themselves. The role of Liu Jing is very brave, because she chooses according to her heart.
Li Chun: In fact, people are very greedy, that is, you have what you have, but you still want to have things that you don't have. Xia Meng chose a relationship that loved her well for her, because she had a lot of herself, but she had one less warm relationship, I think.
Wang Ju: Another point, the three sisters in our play rarely give each other advice on what you should do, I think it should be the same in real life, when it comes to falling in love, I think even the best friend should not interfere with each other's ideas, tell her how to do it, but accept the choice of good friends.
M.C. In real life, if you find out that your girlfriend's boyfriend is a scumbag, will you tell her?
Wang Ju: I think there are very few situations that the parties are completely unaware of. (Li Chun: Yes, sometimes I know too much, I just pretend I don't know). Her choice must have been justified by her, and I should accept her choice. If one day they really can't go on and she comes back and needs my help, I will still help her as always. But I can't interfere to say that he's a scumbag and you're going to break up with him.
Li Chun: Or respect the idea of good friends. Loving or not loving is her own business, and if she's really hurt, she just needs to know that we're always there for her, and the feelings need to be run by themselves.
M.C. If you could choose a different role in "Love Is Delicious", which one would you choose?
Li Chun: I choose Wenwen, haha. Eating and drinking can also be casually intimidating.
Wang Ju: Then I play Liu Jing's mother, haha. (Li Chun: Then I play the dog of Liu Jing's mother, you can hold me every day. ）
M.C. If the show had a second season, would you still star? With such a good reputation in the first season, are you worried about the ratings and feedback of the second season?
Wang Ju: Definitely. Our theme itself is not a cool drama in the traditional sense, and each of our protagonists has obvious shortcomings and problems. We're telling a story, and there will be points that make you feel cool, and there will be points that make you feel uncomfortable, which is normal. We want to be friends with the audience, and when they watch it, they will feel that the character is real, it may be a little dramatic at times, but they can feel our sincerity.
Li Chun: The audience is varied, the crowd is difficult to reconcile, you can't fully cater to the audience, only some of the audience like you, but I believe in the director's ability. Just like this show, we didn't know it would be as good as it would be. Audience expectations are high, but the story of the second season will be different and may also be the icing on the cake.
