A few days ago, the web drama "Time with You, Don't Come Unharmed" is being broadcast online. Recently, Cai Xiangyu, the second female number in the play, who plays the agent Dai Baoling, accepted an interview with reporters.
Although it is a voice connection, Cai Xiangyu's enthusiastic voice is still heard on the other end of the phone, and he is not slightly lazy because he is not facetious, and his serious attitude makes people feel very comfortable. As Cai Xiangyu said, her own personality is more gentle, and when getting along with everyone, she also hopes that everyone is mainly comfortable.
Cai Xiangyu challenges the role of agent and bluntly says that the role is very different from his own personality
In the play this time, Cai Xiangyu played an agent in the entertainment industry. Although he is in the entertainment industry and has usually contacted many agents, before filming, Cai Xiangyu still did a lot of homework and asked his agent for advice.
Cai Xiangyu said that "the role is extremely challenging", and his personality is very different, "I usually have a relatively flat personality, and I will joke with friends, but when I get along with everyone, I hope that everyone is comfortable, it is a gentle state, and this role is still very different, so (acting) this (role) is a challenge."
Cai Xiangyu revealed the concept of love: love that runs in both directions is the best
In the play, Dai Baoling pays unconditionally for love and does not ask for returns. But Cai Xiangyu said that she herself does not like the role of this concept of love, "I feel like to say it, if the other party has no idea about you, we can decisively and neatly end this relationship." Don't torture anyone, everyone should be happy, don't just be alone, don't be alone, don't suffer alone, love in both directions is the best. If I'm sure he doesn't like me, I'll decisively snuff out the feeling instead of taking it to heart. ”
Four degrees of cooperation Cai Xiangyu: Director Tan will not put pressure on the actors, which makes me more confident
"Time with You, Don't Come Unharmed" is Cai Xiangyu's fourth cooperation with director Tan Youye, and when asked if she is the royal actress of Director Tan Youye, Cai Xiangyu said that Director Tan may just like her efforts. "I usually work very hard to prepare everything before shooting, and when I get to the scene, I will directly perform these things without burdening everyone, and I feel that it may be a comparison (to get the director's approval)."
Talking about the harvest of working with Tan Dao so many times, Cai Xiangyu frankly said: "Tan Dao will try to guide us on the spot, tell us what the state of this play needs, and let us play the rest. It helps us without putting too much pressure on us, making it easy for everyone to use their maximum potential. The second point, Tan Dao can make my heart more confident, Tan Dao's evaluation of people is a lot of positive praise, it will make you more confident in your heart, people are confident that they will play better, and they will actually have an advantage in my future development path. ”
Interview Transcript:
Zero Entertainment Network: The character played in the play this time is an agent, during the filming process, did you project the feelings of your own agent, or the agent you are familiar with, or their personality characteristics and style of doing things?
Cai Xiangyu: Yes. Because when I usually contact our agents, I will also observe their work status and life status, as well as their personality. When I read the script, I will integrate their state and specific personality, and then bring it in and perform according to my own analysis. Fortunately, the effect is very good, because they are also very sassy and very cute personality, which is still more in line with the personality of the characters in the play, and it is still of great help to me to shape the characters.
Zero Entertainment Network: Is playing the role of agent difficult for you?
Cai Xiangyu: Actually, it was challenging, but fortunately I had a very cute agent around me, and they also gave me a lot of help when shooting, so that I could better integrate into the role. The challenging thing is that her (the character in the play) personality is actually different from my own personality, so I am trying very hard to interpret this role with the character of the character in the play, and fortunately the final effect is not bad. (Laughs!) ）
Zero Entertainment Network: What is your personality like in life? If I had to describe it in one word, what would it be?
Cai Xiangyu: I don't know if it's appropriate to say that – gentle. (Laughs!) I usually have a relatively flat personality and joke with friends, but when I get along with everyone, I hope that everyone is mainly comfortable, which is a gentle state. It's still very different from this role, so this (role) is a challenge.
Zero Entertainment Network: The character in the play, if it is described in one word, what is it?
Cai Xiangyu: I feel that several (words) are very suitable for her, sassy, heavy love, attention to work, for the sake of friends, kindness, willing to pay without asking for returns.

Then, I don't want my feelings to burden him, I just hope he can be a better person with my help, and I hope that this feeling doesn't make him too heavy. I won't tell him either unless I'm sure he likes me. So kind! This state of affairs does not ask for anything in return. However, I personally don't like this concept of love, I feel like to say it, if the other party has no idea about you, we can decisively and neatly end the relationship.
