Acting on the road to power
Zhou Yixuan has two dramas online this year, one is the "Please CheerLeadEr brother" that just finished broadcasting, in which he plays the rich second generation Luan Xiaofei - a boy who has always been very affectionate and flowery, after really meeting the girl he likes, he has become a more motivated and more dedicated self. In the play, Luan Xiaofei drives a different sports car every day, and Zhou Yixuan laughs that he can drive a different car every time and is quite enjoyable. Playing Luan Xiaofei, a character with many ups and downs, the biggest gain for Zhou Yixuan is that he has also honed himself through this changing and slowly growing character. In the currently broadcast drama "I Can't Fall in Love With a Girlfriend", Zhou Yixuan plays a full rainbow warm man, in this drama, Zheng Ze, played by Zhou Yixuan, has a crush on a girl since elementary school, "But... I am the third party, the millennium male second in the idol drama. "Zhou Yixuan seems to be holding a grudge against Zheng Ze, the spare tire warm male role." I was reading the script and I was thinking, where am I at such a crucial moment?! Later, I asked, Oh, the screenwriter didn't write me in. ”
Chatting with Zhou Yixuan is always full of laughter, successively playing the rich second generation warm man, when asked in reality are you like the warm man in the play? He smiled, "If I like a girl, I will definitely be unconditionally good to her, and all I can do is make myself a rich generation." Asking him," "Where have you taken on the road to the rich generation," he was stunned, "as if I were going backwards... Hahahahaha, or haven't taken the first step yet. I wanted to find a step for him, "No matter what, you must have grown..." As a result, he teased himself open-mindedly and funnyly: "Growing up... Gotta ask the finances... Hahahahaha. ”
This interview was done in Zhou Yixuan's company, after the completion of the interview is already the evening, Zhou Yixuan still has to stay in the company and then take dance lessons, the publicity period is also so spelled? Zhou Yixuan smiled again, "In other words, it should be that I am still not busy enough, relatively idle, so I only went to class... No, in fact, the publicity period should also maintain the charge, can not let themselves fall to 1% of the power. When he said goodbye, he asked him if he would go on a variety show next or had already received a film and television project to enter the group, he said that he was in preparation, "Welcome to see the directors of this interview, come to Find Brother Xuan." ”
The focus is still on music creation
Zhou Yixuan has had an idol since he was a child, Jay Chou. When he first created songs, he was also unconsciously influenced by Jay Chou's style, and formed his own style in continuous practice.
In September this year, on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of his debut, Zhou Yixuan released a new single "With Me" composed by him and co-created throughout the process. The birth of the song "There I Am" was when Zhou Yixuan spent an all-night composing the song and then filling in the lyrics. In addition to the melody being attractive, Zhou Yixuan hopes that everyone will pay more attention to what is said in his lyrics. He thinks that this song is not just about love, in the process of creation, he thought of family, friendship, life... The city is big, but the people are getting lonely. Zhou Yixuan told this reporter that the sense of loneliness he said also comes from the feeling of being an artist, after the hustle and bustle under the lights on the stage, the stars who return to real life also need to pay attention to food, clothing, housing, life and death.
Embarking on the road of acting, Zhou Yixuan first learned guitar, and later began to learn dance. When he was a teenager, when he liked to read entertainment magazines, he already had a vision that he might one day become an artist, thinking about how good it would be if he could see himself in an entertainment magazine one day. Very handsome, with a lot of fans, is his initial vision of the star life. As he truly stepped into the entertainment park and experienced the wind and rain step by step to the present, Zhou Yixuan had a lot of feelings. Zhou Yixuan, who has been debuting for five years, knows that when the artist is under a lot of pressure, he has to bear these pressures when he walks on this road, and there is another aspect of the pressure that may be painful and happy, because with fans paying attention to themselves, fans put their own joys and sorrows on their idols, so the idols themselves also need to present better works to give back to fans.
What is red? Zhou Yixuan thought very clearly, in his cognition, xianghong is not how many fans he wants to have, but more that he wants some works that can have a long history, just like the post-80s and post-90s have listened to Zhou Dong's songs since childhood. On Zhou Yixuan's recent Weibo, he turned the latest mv of Jay Chou and Xin's cooperation, and during the interview, he was optimistic and funny throughout the interview, and he joked with this magazine, "Hey, the next time you visit Zhou Dong, can you help me ask, can he transfer my mv?" "Get rid of a week of Jaylen's little fan brother."

Learn earthy love stories for the characters
"Continuous learning and continuous breakthroughs"
Nandu Entertainment: Did you experience anything you hadn't done to play the role of Luan Xiaofei?
Zhou Yixuan: I usually rarely eat supper, I have a special experience to eat crayfish supper, I also have to learn fencing, but also learned some earthy love words, my fan friends sent me a message there are many earthy love words, hahaha. For example, "From today on, my name is ten, your name is eight or nine, do you know why?" Because eight or nine are not separated from ten".
Nandu Entertainment: It is said that you work hard to play the role of fitness? Is this what you want to make yourself more confident or is it the director's request?
Zhou Yixuan: Usually I like fitness myself, it just so happens that this role is practicing fencing again, before the stage I would go to the gym to do strength training, at this stage I mainly practiced fitness with dance training. When the day the fans and friends think that it is time for you to go to the muscle training, maybe I will return to the gym again.
Nandu Entertainment: Are you one of the types that will bask your muscles on social platforms?
Zhou Yixuan: I have sunburned, but I was dissed by fans and friends, saying that Brother Xuan, you are a straight male filter. I added that kind of black filter to make the muscles look black, and it turned out to be diss.
Nandu Entertainment: How do you evaluate your current acting skills?
Zhou Yixuan: Continuous growth, continuous learning and breakthroughs. Always hone yourself with a learning attitude, let yourself grow up, after all, I am not from the acting class, I also hope to talk to the director and producer more when filming. I also hope that I can write some theme song interludes and the like, and in "My Girlfriend Who Can't Fall in Love", I have sung a song "Rainbow Ice Cream", and I am grateful for giving me this opportunity.
Nandu Entertainment: Will the company give you some special performance courses?
Zhou Yixuan: Acting is not necessarily learned from the classroom, but more is your own understanding and experience in life, and it is also important to experience life. Maybe in terms of lines, as a Jiangsu and Zhejiang person, the difference between the front and back nasal sounds is an obstacle for me to overcome, and I have always paid attention to the pronunciation of things.
Nandu Entertainment: What roles do you think you can hold now?
Zhou Yixuan: I think it's a very manly role, a fight or a gunfight scene that I want to challenge. It doesn't have to be cool, and being attractive is not a flat character.
Nandu Entertainment: Have you ever wanted to play those roles that don't look so handsome?
Zhou Yixuan: Is there anyone who is not so handsome when I play? Hahaha.

Nandu Entertainment: How do you evaluate your appearance?
Zhou Yixuan: So-so, if it is 10 out of 10, I will give myself 11 points. I'm not narcissistic, people have to be confident in themselves! Even with your eyes closed, you have to praise yourself for being handsome.
Nandu Entertainment: Will you give it to your parents when you earn money?
Zhou Yixuan: Haha, I am not a mother treasure type, but I have a good relationship with my parents.

I usually don't buy clothes, like to buy shoes, bags can't afford to buy, hahaha.

Nandu Entertainment: This year is the fifth anniversary of your debut, Ben Sanla, do you have any feelings?
Zhou Yixuan: Don't mention such a sad topic... In fact, I have always made myself seem very mature, usually I feel that I am a child, I have good physical strength, age is not a problem, mentality is the most important.
Nandu Entertainment: You debuted as a group, and now that you have debuted for five years, will you make some comparisons? Or do you feel like you've reached the five-year plan?
Zhou Yixuan: The plan can't catch up with the changes, many things can set big goals, such as having a chance to have a concert in the future, the songs of the concert are all written by me, and the rest of the things can only be asked by the staff to let Xuan Ge achieve this goal and give them chicken blood.
