The most impressive scene is licking the tip of the nose, and it will be embarrassing to shoot a sweet scene
Sohu Entertainment: Is the character of Mo Xiuyan like you?
Xiao Kaizhong: There are parts that are like and parts that are not like. Mo Xiuyan is a foreign cat, he does not understand the sophistication of human feelings, so he is a relatively straight person, my personality is also straight forward, I think the personality is similar to me. It's not like he's too narcissistic, narcissistic to the point of totally not having a face. I am usually a more subtle person, and I feel that the advantages of my body do not have to be said by myself, but let others dig up. But Mo Xiuyan would say, how good I am.
Sohu Entertainment: Mo Xiuyan is a cat star, how do you reflect the cat side in the process of acting?
Xiao Kaizhong: I think that the biggest recognition of cats is arrogance, so I have always wanted to show the strength of arrogance. I have had the experience of raising cats before, and in the process of acting, I tried my best to recall when I originally had a cat, what kind of state the cat was, what habits, what emotions there were, and try to integrate into it as naturally as possible.
Sohu Entertainment: What is the scene that impressed you with this cooperation with Tian Xiwei?
Xiao Kaizhong: When there was a scene in the middle of the play, the director said: "Kai Zhong, you look at her two people in this scene, a little closer, a little closer." I said, "Ok, no problem." "Lick her!" As soon as the director's phrase "lick her" came out, I was confused, and I said, "Why lick her?" He said, "That's right, lick her!" I said, "I lick her?" The director said, "Aren't you a cat?" Don't cats like to lick with their tongues? I said, "Yes, there is a point in what you say." "I feel very ashamed, so many people in public, I feel that I have played hooligans in front of so many people, and I am particularly impressed."
Sohu Entertainment: What about Tian Xiwei's reaction?
Xiao Kaizhong: Her reaction in the first instant was the same as mine, both of us were in a state of confusion. But it was actually fine, because this is what the character needed, so she gave 5 seconds to hesitate, and she said, "Come and lick me."
Sohu Entertainment: Is this the sweetest scene in your memory?
Xiao Kaizhong: No, there is no shame, only more shame.
Sohu Entertainment: This drama has a lot of sugar-sprinkled high-sweet plots, when acting in particularly intimate scenes, will you be embarrassed or laugh?

Sohu Entertainment: In real life, do you feel like a "cat boyfriend" or a "canine boyfriend"?
Xiao Kaizhong: My real personality is partial to the canine family. I have raised dogs, but also raised cats, the personality of cats and dogs are diametrically opposed, dogs are more active, more clingy, but cats are more arrogant, temperament is more eccentric. I think my personality is still relatively good, no cat temper stinks. If the personality is too similar to a cat in ordinary life, it is easy to be single, because the temper is too strange.
Sohu Entertainment: Do you prefer acting or singing and dancing?
Xiao Kaizhong: I prefer acting. Filming is playing a role, and I have been involved in this role for a while, to experience his life in a short period of time.

I think it is not difficult to do a small thing well, and it is very difficult to do a small thing well for more than ten years. I appreciate that they can repeat some things for more than ten years and keep themselves in the best condition to face the work, which is a very difficult thing, and I want to be like them.
Sohu Entertainment: Do you prefer your ancient or modern costumes?
Xiao Kaizhong: They are quite handsome. No way, the bottom is good, Versailles.
Sohu Entertainment: If you have a full score of 10 points, how many points do you give yourself to your appearance?

At the age of eighteen or nineteen, boys and girls care about their appearance. At that time, I liked a girl and wanted to chase her, and others thought I was fat. I thought to myself, I'm not fat, you hate me, I'll lose weight for you. There is no good way to lose weight in school, that is, playing ball, not eating in private, thirty or forty degrees in the summer, Wuhan is one of the three major furnaces, playing ball in that kind of weather, every night still thunder and run five kilometers, do not eat at night, lose weight.

For example, I'm going to play a play now, I need to gain weight, I need to play ugly, I don't hesitate. I've made a scene before, and I don't use my face at all, but I don't care about this at all, I think this character is like this, I need to do it.
