There is a "gentle sense of rebellion" in Chen Feiyu, which surprises people from time to time. The Spring Festival is approaching, talking about his childhood memories, he laughed and joked about his fear of setting off firecrackers. "When I was a child, the fireworks at home were all set off by adults, so I wanted to try it, but I almost burned my brother's clothes, and I didn't dare to set off cannons indiscriminately since I hit this." This does not seem to contradict everyone's impression of him, even if others use "Arthur" terriers to ridicule him in person, he does not refute it and laughs at it. In fact, Chen Feiyu, who looks very "constant temperature", has always believed that there will be a temperature difference in the same person. Between cold and heat, he is himself while looking for breakthroughs and changes, hoping to use his true colors to break the thermostatic layer.

Ordinary is more malleable
In the days when Chen Feiyu became Li Zheng, when friends saw him, they said that he had changed. This is evident in his self-written record, which he wrote: "Before filming, I made myself very much like him, dyed with blonde hair, didn't usually talk much, and always held a lighter in my hand. Chen Feiyu's brother also noticed this change. In the past, my brother was not very good at discussing the actor's performance method with him. "He doesn't like to discuss this, and he doesn't learn this, but this drama, he came to me immediately after watching it, he was very surprised, saying that he had completely changed someone, and he was too different from my usual!" In his opinion, this is a great affirmation. "He felt that the person on TV was not me, not his brother, but I felt good. People who know you well watch you act, and he won't play, because the appearance of the character has long overshadowed the usual familiarity. ”
It's like the whole person jumped directly into the role, and everything changed naturally. Chen Feiyu said that if the character is too different from his own life experience and personality traits, he will first try to be close to each other in appearance and behavior habits. Although the change of hairstyle and clothing is only the first step, it can subtly affect the character until it leads the character to his own destiny.

But other times, just the appearance is already the first hurdle. He recalled: "When I first played Chen Baojin in "Gold Rush", I couldn't even convince myself. Because there are often scenes in "Gold Rush" where Chen Baojin is bullied by people joining forces, on the day of filming, I went to the scene to see that the person who bullied me was one meter seven, and I stood there holding up a big man of nearly one meter nine, how to act this? In the end, I thought of a way to sit on the ground and stage, so that the person who bullied me had a visual contrast with me, otherwise I was afraid that the audience would not be convinced by it. ”
In the play, Chen Baojin is always bullied, and in the crew, Chen Feiyu has always been distressed: "Every day I open my eyes, I have to face a real problem - I am the highest in our group, and I have to be 'bullied' every day, so I can only let myself be hunched over and shorter." But the heart is entangled, because from the original character setting, there is not a sufficient reason to say that this character needs to be hunched over. ”
In the interview, he talked to him about Chen Baojin's unassuming personality, dashing appearance, and usually a dark face doing hard work in the mine, which is quite different from the "handsome" image that everyone has seen in the past. Chen Feiyu immediately corrected: "I don't think it can be described as 'handsome', in fact, I have played a lot of roles, whether it is Li Zheng or Gu Yuxuan in "Countdown to Love You", they are all different, and they cannot be simply summarized by handsomeness. He agrees more with the authenticity of "ordinary." "I still want to be normal," he said. Ordinary, the character has more room to be shaped. If you always think about how handsome and beautiful, the audience's attention will definitely be distracted by appearance. ”

Being an adult is not contradictory to naivety
Chatting with Chen Feiyu, he often sighed at his sincerity, was not afraid to expose his weaknesses, and did not attempt to "package" the depth. For example, recall the Spring Festival memory in his childhood, when he was most looking forward to going to the street with his grandfather to buy fireworks, large and small fireworks to bring home, don't mention how satisfied he is! But what he loves is just a New Year's "liveliness": "When the fireworks are bought, they are all adults playing, and I dare not put them." For example, I talked about how I recently fell in love with editing short films and spent all day tinkering with them behind closed doors, "but I was afraid that others would let me interpret it after reading it, and ask me what deep meaning I had, what metaphors or metaphors were in it." In fact, I just cut and play by myself, all of which are daily scenery, I prefer to step on the picture and music, and let the editing follow the rhythm of the music. ”
In the documentary "Only Three Days Visible", he discussed the issue of "interpretation and misunderstanding", and in Chen Feiyu's view, it is natural that people will be reluctant to express it for fear of being misunderstood. Now, he thinks about this question more thoroughly: "Many times, the appearance is the appearance, the original intention is the original intention, and behind it, there is often no more complicated thing." But it is these simple things that can be over-interpreted. Faced with this situation, he began to feel that there was no need to explain too much, nor to bind himself because of this. A mature adult knows how to protect himself, and at the same time, does not have to lose the most precious innocence. "We often say that we have to take into account the feelings of others, and at the end of the day, the only thing we don't take into account is our own feelings. So it's better to be pure, just like the film I'm editing, it's actually not that complicated, it's just a real mood feeling at the moment. ”

In the same way, Chen Feiyu put it into use in his understanding of performance. Since childhood, he has traveled to the set of his parents, observing and learning in the places where they work. At that time, he was still young and did not know much about what it meant to be an actor. Today, he interprets the performance with his most simple understanding: "True feelings, I am reviewing every play, thinking about what improvements can be made, but one thing remains the same, that is, to be sincere and give true feelings." A sincere performance is sure to move people. ”
In the crew, he observed the performance methods of different predecessors and admired the "immersion" of senior Liao Fan. He feels that it goes beyond "acting", "I think he is filming to turn himself into a completely different person." Chen Feiyu further explained: "You will think that he is very mysterious, although they are filming together every day, you can't learn a real teacher Liao Fan in the crew. Because the him you see, the him you come into contact with, the personality, temper, and habits, are all martial brothers in gold mining, not Liao Fan. After every shout, after every day, he was still in that state. At that time, I mistakenly thought that Teacher Liao Fan was a very serious person, which made people feel a sense of distance, as if he was completely immersed in a state with an aura around him, and you can't break this state. Later, after the film was filmed for a long time, when I ate together, I found that in real life, he was not at all what he was on the set, he was particularly humorous and easy to get close to. ”

After the predecessor Jin Shijie completed "Will Night" with Chen Feiyu, he described him as having an innocence that has nothing to do with age. "There is no smell of dirty mud on my body, and I just ran out after taking a shower to say hello to the world." During the filming of "Gold Rush" in Yunnan, he was stationed in the Heihe River system of the Lancang River with the crew, just like the pure boy at the beginning, between filming, he found himself some of the simplest "fun" - looking for big and round stones on the river bank and throwing stones to make water drift. Ask him if this move has driven the people in the crew to play together, and who throws farther than whom, for example, Teacher Liao Fan. He waved his hand again and again: "There is no one at all, just me playing by myself." Teacher Liao Fan is such a serious person on the set, you let him pick up stones and float away? I can't even think about it. ”

The temperature difference naturally greets the change
His father Chen Kaige once described Chen Feiyu as an "order freak" in an interview. "Every piece of clothing in the bedroom must be neatly arranged, where to put books, where to put alarm clocks, where to hang paintings, how to fold clothes, all have instructions." When he made his own clothing brand, he also set a set of order for himself. "I believe in principle, and I have a particular set of process order. After making a brand, I have a deeper understanding of my personality, and I must first determine the basic color, plate type, and production process of the brand. ”
In his personality, there is an innate principle, such as, "Be polite" and "Don't be late." He requires himself to keep a clear mind and a stable mind, and this peace of mind comes from his self-discipline in all aspects: "I think only when I am self-disciplined can I be sober, and only by being sober can I really do the things at hand." ”

But it is this Chen Feiyu who often has to face the situation that "the plan cannot catch up with the change". "Originally, in May 2022, I had a scene in a vest, and the characters in the play were burly, which was very important to reflect the characteristics of the characters. So as soon as the New Year passed, I have been working out and preparing for several months to enter the new group to film this scene, and I gained nearly 40 pounds from the state of Li Zheng's thin and thin performance. After a few months, the group said that the time might have to be put back, and I trained every day to maintain my muscles. Later, there were other changes, and in the end it was not filmed. But when I wanted to join the group "Countdown to Say I Love You", the result became, "I trained myself to be very strong to play a designer who didn't need this kind of body at all and who had encountered some difficulties in life." As soon as he mentioned this, he couldn't help but show some regret, feeling that his body state at that time was not completely close to the movie characters. "So I tried my best to cover it up and pick out some wide clothes for the characters to wear. Throughout the filming period, I tried to control my diet, did not eat staple foods, and slowly lost weight again. ”

With the accumulation of crew life, Chen Feiyu is more and more aware that changes can happen at any time. No matter how well planned, the result is not necessarily what you want, but it is better to embrace change naturally, or even take the initiative to create some changes. Just like the temperature difference that people face all the time: fireworks during the New Year, the temperature of the flame core can reach 800 °C; The lighter Li Feng held in his hand, the flame was 300 °C ~ 500 °C; Boiling water is 100°C, while the most comfortable air temperature for the human body is 28°C... A person who is accustomed to staying calm can always be in a state of emotional excitement when filming; You can also really sink down and use a slightly cold temperature to absorb all the precipitate. He said: "The complexity of people and the hierarchical nature of roles lie in changes, and if you use temperature to describe it, it is likely to be high and low. In the face of different people and things, showing different emotions and harboring different attitudes, everyone has an innate multi-facetedness. ”
In the midst of countless changes, he opens his heart, accepts different characters to live in his body, experiences thousands of tastes of life, and then uses a small sense of ritual to learn how to say goodbye. carefully collect Li Zheng's lighter in "Light Me to Warm You"; Pockets filled with stones picked up by the river while filming Gold Rush; I also packed a prop from "Countdown to Love You" into my suitcase. In his home, there is a small cabinet that constantly accumulates these precious souvenirs. Year after year, the items in the cabinet continue to increase, which means that actor Chen Feiyu's role experience is also accumulating more and more until it ushers in new changes.
