Chen Turing's appearance has always given people a sense of well-behaved and docile, but in fact, her personality also carries a stubbornness, in order to prove to the teacher that girls can also learn science well, high school division of science, and finally entered the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics aircraft manufacturing and engineering major; despite the opposition of her family, firmly accepted the invitation of "Left Ear" and continued the road of acting. In the past two years, Chen Turing has begun to take the initiative to seek a breakthrough and challenge the type of role that she has never been exposed to before, she feels that she is more open in her identity as an actor, and gradually realizes that maybe she is brave enough to step out of her comfort zone, but may find the path that suits herself.

The "rebellion" of the maiden
"I have to decide my own life"
Being an actress is not in line with her parents' original expectations of Chen Turing, and her family hopes that she can become a good child in the traditional sense and grow up safely. The university chose to apply for the aircraft manufacturing and engineering major, which was also my mother's idea. In her mother's vision, she should return to Xiamen after graduation, find a professional job, and live a stable life in her hometown. Chen Turing accepted the suggestion, but she didn't think so, even without the vignette of "Left Ear", she couldn't imagine what she looked like now, "Your life doesn't stop at saying, what your university is like, what your future is like." Life is one-eyed and endless. ”
When receiving the invitation of "Left Ear", Chen Turing's parents' attitude was opposed, no one in the family was engaged in the acting industry, the older generation did not understand the actor profession, and there was also a certain misunderstanding of the show business. However, Chen Turing wanted to give it a try, "This is a rare opportunity, Sister Xue Man and Su Dao can choose me, and I am also very lucky." Although she still could not get the support of her family after fighting, she decided to stick to her own ideas, "This is my own life, I want to decide for myself." For the daughter's "rebellion", for a long time after that, Chen Turing's mother could not understand, and Chen Turing believed that this mustard did not need to be specially resolved, "because everyone has to complete the separation from their parents, and perhaps everyone's life and parents' assumptions are different and deviated, which I think is very normal." ”
This is not chen Turing's first "stubbornness". As early as the division of arts and sciences, the teacher suggested that it might be easier for girls to choose liberal arts, and Chen Turing felt that this was not the case, "Why can't girls learn science well?" At that time, her liberal arts and sciences grades were almost the same, and because of the teacher's words, she decided to choose science, wanting to prove to the teacher that his words were wrong. Recalling, Chen Turing thought that he was still relatively rational at that time, "It is not a strong desire to win or lose, if my liberal arts are much better than science and I chose science, it may indeed be more stubborn, I actually have to choose." ”

Don't set limits on yourself
"Stepping out of the comfort zone, it's more comfortable"
The first semester was the happiest time in the life of Chen Turing University, new city, new life, new friends, this was her first time in the true sense of independence, full of expectation and curiosity about everything. This happiness came to an abrupt end at the beginning of the next semester, and Chen Turing, without knowing it, was uploaded a photo to participate in the selection of school flowers and grasses, and ranked first. At the same time as gaining high attention, it has also caused her a lot of trouble: strangers often call her and her family in various names, use her photos for advertising without permission, or make up false reports about her... At that time, Chen Turing was young and inexperienced, and he did not realize that he could take up legal weapons to protect his rights and interests. This experience left some shadows on Chen Turing, she was afraid of the re-enactment of past events, "At that time, I was afraid of being harassed for a while, and when "Left Ear" was just starting to be promoted, Director Su and the staff of the same crew did not quite understand why I was so afraid. After learning the reason, Su Youpeng enlightened Chen Turing as a person who came over, and used his personal experience to tell her how to accept and face it, which gave her a lot of comfort and encouragement.
In fact, Chen Turing does not feel that his appearance is so outstanding, "I don't think every girl will feel that she is particularly good-looking." She thinks that beauty and ugliness are relative, but she does not deny that she does have an advantage in appearance, "To be honest, the actor himself is the work in front of the stage, every actor, even a comedian, you have to say that it is impossible to say that you do not have the advantage of appearance." The producer chooses you, and it will definitely see if your appearance and character fit well. Unless I'm doing a purely behind-the-scenes job today, I can stand up and say that I don't have the advantage of appearance at all. ”
It is also because of her quiet and fresh appearance and temperament that Chen Turing has played many roles of this type in the past, and the audience's impression of her also stays here. In the past two years, she began to seek some breakthroughs, costume dramas, Republic of China dramas, roles with great contrast with herself... Chen Turing tried one by one, not necessarily transformation, she first thanked "Little Ears" for making everyone remember themselves, "Whether it is as myself or as an actor, it is a very fortunate thing." On the other hand, Chen Turing also does not want to set limits for himself, "If you can have such a breakthrough role, it is also good, but I will not say that you must play the opposite of a certain type (role). "At the moment, what I can do is to try to do my job as an actor."
Actors are mostly selected, and Chen Turing gradually realized that if he always blindly waited for the opportunity to find the door and did not take the initiative to make efforts, then he would only be more passive. "Let's say you've played a role and a lot of similar genres will find you, but that's not necessarily the best fit for you. The world will not revolve around me, nor will it think about me, maybe what I have worked hard to get is more suitable for me. Now, Chen Turing feels that he is more open in the identity of an actor, "out of the comfort zone, but more comfortable." ”

"The show is one
Disciplines that need to be worked on elsewhere"
Not long ago, the TV series "Yulou Chun" starring Chen Turing ended successfully, and Sun Youde, who she played in it, left a deep impression on the audience. Sun Youde is the second daughter of Sun Xun, the first assistant of the dynasty, and has always been considered to be the daughter who abides by the most etiquette, but she is the "first person" in the play to pursue free love, and her first love was separated by her father and married far away, and then her husband died unexpectedly. In Chen Turing's view, Sun Youde was a very characterful girl in that era, love is supreme, "Her personality conflict is quite large, she is a boudoir qianjin, she has known dali since childhood, including in the description of others, it is also 'the second sister who has been observing etiquette since childhood', but she is very brave to pursue in her own marriage." ”
Sun Youde's teenage years were carefree, but after marriage, he was bullied by his husband's family and gradually became gentle and tolerant. In dealing with the change of personality before and after the characters, Chen Turing also made a lot of efforts. Just like when playing the young girl Sun Youde, she will first give herself a strong psychological hint, telling herself and the small actors in the opponent's play are the same age, and at the same time, she will observe and imitate the actions of the young actors, "just like some of the actions that will run and jump to grab things." Chen Turing will also think back to his childhood and childhood: "What was my mentality at that time?" What will I do? What happened to me? ”
And after the marriage of Sun Youde, Chen Turing will take the role, stand in her point of view and put yourself in the shoes of the problem, if you encounter the same situation, what will you do? The answer is also "forbearance." Chen Turing analyzed Sun Youde's personality and her encounters, "She is not stupid, she knows why others want to bully her, but she is weak and weak, and she usually does not fight, so when she faces many things, she is actually more helpless." At that time, Sun Youde was already dead in his heart, and in the face of the disputes in the house, forbearance was perhaps the best way.
Eight years into the industry, from a newcomer from a non-science class to a formal actor as a profession, Chen Turing also has a different understanding of acting, trying to absorb experience from each play. For example, after filming "Good Scene Geometry", Chen Turing clearly felt her progress, her analysis of the character was more detailed, she knew how to enter the role without reservation, and also learned to feel the world and think about the relationship between the characters from the perspective of the characters. And "Huan Xi Sha" is a breakthrough for Chen Turing, Zheng Dan is a role type that she has never been exposed to before, and the contrast with herself is also very large, after shaping such a role, she feels that not only the performance, but also the understanding of herself has become wider.
Chen Turing believes that the most important and fortunate thing is that he realized that acting is a discipline that needs to work hard elsewhere, "It is not about acting itself, but about feeling our lives more and observing our lives." Chen Turing said that she was not sure whether her perception had improved, but she could clearly perceive the traces left by each character. Just like after acting in "Yulou Spring", she found herself suddenly becoming emotional, "Although I only had a short period of ten days in the crew, I have actually experienced half of Sun Youde's life, experienced the ups and downs of her life and the parting of life and death." Chen Turing said that the changes brought about by the role may not always accompany her, but they will suddenly flash at some point in life, "There will be very strong feelings, will remain in my heart, I will think about how I thought and how I did." ”
Nandu Entertainment × Chen Turing
"Actors are inherently diverse,
I want to try as many characters as possible."
, duration 00:38
"I want to be more progressive every day than the day before"
Nandu Entertainment: What was your dream when you were a child?
Chen Turing: When I was a child, I wanted to be a flight attendant, because I thought the airplane meal was delicious on the plane before, (Nandu Entertainment: So I think I can eat it every day as a flight attendant? Yes, and we thought stewardess uniforms were beautiful when we were kids. Then I grew up a little bit, as if I had thought about being a teacher, because when I was a child, I felt that [the teacher] was very authoritative, the teacher was omnipotent, and it would be very happy to be a teacher. A little older, almost middle school, at that time Xiamen began to become very literary, there were many cafes, and I dreamed of having my own coffee shop in the future.
Nandu Entertainment: Remember the first time you stood in front of the camera?
Chen Turing: I didn't think about it so much before I started shooting, I may feel that there is a sense of freshness, it turns out that filming is like this, I have never seen it before.
Nandu Entertainment: So you are quite bold? Some people may think a lot in their hearts.
Chen Turing: I think there are some people who think a lot in their hearts, probably because they know what to do. I was hearing about actors who had just graduated from the class, and they might be facing the camera for the first time, because they would have a look in their hearts, so they would be very nervous and wanted to say that I had to do something, but I really didn't have any consciousness at the beginning.

Nandu Entertainment: When did you decide to make acting your profession?
Chen Turing: After graduation, because there were other roles to find at that time, there may not be a particularly clear time to say, and suddenly I felt that I must be an actor, and I have been gradually in this process.
Nandu Entertainment: Do you feel that since you are already on this road, you will continue to walk on this mentality?
Chen Turing: If you want to make every day better and more progressive than the day before, it is best to do so.
Nandu Entertainment: Did you already feel the fun of the performance when you first came into contact with it?
Chen Turing: When I first came into contact, I didn't actually have it, I just thought it was a wonderful thing. At that time, Su Dao was like a teacher, because I was also a student at that time, so I naturally felt that I had to complete the homework assigned to me by the teacher to treat Su Dao's requirements just like I did to the teacher. And at that time, I felt that Su Dao was very distant for me, like an idol-like character, and now he came to reality and said to me, then I must do it, I think I want to refuel, I must listen to my idol, it is this feeling.
Nandu Entertainment: Is there any idol like director Su Youpeng?
Chen Turing: I think there are quite a few predecessors who have played such a role for me on the road of being an actor, for example, when I made "Huan Xi Sha", like Sister Ya (Tong Liya) and director Gao Yijun, because I grew up watching the plays directed by Gao Yijun, like "The Great Han Tianzi", and grew up watching his plays. Sister Ya is also an actress that I particularly like, I liked her before working with her, and after working with her, I think she is really too good, very good to me, really like a sister. Then RundongGe (He Rundong) also took good care of me during the whole shooting process, gave me a lot of help and inspiration, and Gengge (Han Geng) was also, I think they are equivalent to such a role for me.
Nandu Entertainment: So even today, you still look up to them?
Chen Turing: What do you have to say about that feeling? Everyone says to stay away from the idol's life, to get closer to the idol's stage, [I] will have a feeling that they are my idols, but I am lucky to be with them.
"I'm not in a position where I can choose a script.
Try to do your part."
Nandu Entertainment: Is there a criterion for choosing a script now?
Chen Turing: I feel that I am not in the situation where I can choose a script, but what I can do (that is) when I meet a role that I like, I try to do it well, to do my part.
Nandu Entertainment: Are there any roles that you really want to play, but have not been able to play?
Chen Turing: I haven't thought about this question, it's just that I want to be a good actor and then try as many different roles as possible, because the actors themselves are diverse.
Nandu Entertainment: You don't seem to participate in reality shows or variety shows, is there any reason? Will you consider participating in some in the future?
Chen Turing: Because I still put the main time and energy into the acting of my own work, variety shows are also a very new field for me, maybe I really did not dabble in variety shows, more (the situation is) because of the promotion of works to be a flying guest and so on. I think there may be opportunities in the future, (for example) like that kind of food (show), will be more suitable for me.
Nandu Entertainment: Do you take the initiative to see the audience's feedback on your performance?
Chen Turing: I will see, I will first consider whether what he said is right, if I think it is right, I may consider whether to adjust next time; I will also discuss this issue with some seniors and professional teachers, and they will tell me that you can't listen to everything, you have to choose some professional or correct criticism to listen to, if you absorb some mistakes (criticism), you will lose the right state in the performance.
Nandu Entertainment: When you first saw some negative comments or criticisms, would you fall into it?
Chen Turing: Before, I saw some comments that said that I thought I should have a little more expression in the performance, but after I tried to do it later, in the eyes of the professionals (it was not right), he would tell me that this kind of talk is to be divided into roles. And what does it mean to have a little more or a little less expression? Acting is the state of the character, his emotions, not the expression.
Nandu Entertainment: Do you have career goals as an actor?
Chen Turing: My goal is to be able to become a good actor.
Nandu Entertainment: "Good" is too broad, how to make it more concrete?
Chen Turing: I think (yes) I can play the role that I have now, bring freshness to everyone as much as possible, and become a qualified actor.
"Finally making a decision will return to reason"
Nandu Entertainment: Are you a person who is more rational than emotional, or is it a person who is more emotional than rational?
Chen Turing: It's hard to say, I think there must be. I am the kind of person who may extend a lot emotionally, but finally make decisions in life and return to reason. For example, if you stay in the role, I think it is a little more rational when preparing the role in the early stage, but when you really shoot, you use sensibility to get close to the role.
Nandu Entertainment: When was the last time you cried?
Chen Turing: It seems like there was a shooting two days ago...
Nandu Entertainment: Is this because of work, in life? Like watching a movie or reading a script?
Chen Turing: Once I cried when I listened to music, it was Shu Qi's "Sound Walk: Hong Kong". Although I didn't know Cantonese, maybe its overall tune made me feel that it was a very sad story, and then I went to check the lyrics, and it was indeed a story that was both helpless and romantic.
Nandu Entertainment: What is the current pace of work?
Chen Turing: My current work rhythm is quite tight, before it was filming, taking over the scene, maybe later like "Huan Xi Sha" and "Good Scene Knowledge Geometry" meeting. The recent work is based on media shooting, which is another rhythm, the theme of each day is changing, and the content of each day's shooting is very different and fresh.
Nandu Entertainment: Do you feel comfortable with this rhythm?
Chen Turing: I feel very comfortable and relaxed to stay in the role, in fact, the magazine shooting is also fresh, although it may be because the theme of each day is different, the challenges are also different.
Nandu Entertainment: How will you spend a day without work?
Chen Turing: I would stay at home one day without a job and then be lazy (laughs).
Nandu Entertainment: Do you usually have any hobbies?
Chen Turing: Usual hobbies, watching movies, (I) will always play, suddenly think of something (movies), then turn it out to see, even if the movie as a BGM, will also be put.
Nandu Entertainment: Do you like to have a little sound at home?
Chen Turing: I can play music, for example, when I am resting, I may wake up one morning and think that the sunshine in Beijing today is very beautiful, so I suddenly built a playlist of songs on a whim, and the songs in it are songs that meet my feelings at this moment.
