"This is the kind of thing that appeals to me," Xiao Zhan said frankly. "Whether they're an instant charmer, or a hero, those aren't really major considerations when I'm choosing a role."

Photo, no descriptionSome have called Liu Zhengliang's remarkable story the setbacks and rebirth of the little guy. When presented with this view, Xiao Zhan immediately said that whether a character was a little guy or big hero formed no part of his criteria for accepting roles. Rather than Liu Zhengliang's story after returning home, Xiao Zhan was more concerned with parts not covered by the script: a young, successful doctor, working a good job in Shenzhen, who went through his teenage years missing out on love and affection from his family - what might have happened to him in those years? What made him shut himself away inside steel walls and gates, become emotionally distant and unable to communicate? Was he ostracized at school? When he felt helpless, how did he repeatedly rebuild his inner walls, turning himself into the person the audience will meet? "This is the kind of thing that appeals to me," Xiao Zhan said frankly. "Whether they're an instant charmer, or a hero, those aren't really major considerations when I'm choosing a role."Screenshot of the article

By chance he got the script for the first five episodes. "I just started reading," he said emphatically. "Couldn't put it down." After he finished those, he immediately asked for the rest.

"I just started reading," he said emphatically. "Couldn't put it down." After he finished those, he immediately asked for the rest. He'd had the same feeling with Legend of Zang Hai, like he was back in school, following serialised novels, laughing and crying at the latest developments. He decided then and there that he would fight for the role of Liu Zhengliang. The character of Liu Zhengliang started out as a young, promising doctor, whose career suffers a "Waterloo" after an incident. He's then forced to return to his remote Dongbei hometown and work at a community hospital. Together with those around him, the physician also heals himself, weaving together many heart-warming stories.Even though he's playing a doctor, Xiao Zhan saw through his occupation to focus on his emotional arc. The characters in the show grow as people and heal each other in a way that left a deep impression on him. Before he began playing the role, the first bit of preparation he did wasn't to accumulate medical knowledge, but to get a feel for the land of Dongbei. He searched out film and TV that had a Dongbei influence and contemplated the hidden web of human and societal connections depicted in them. Even though the Liu Zhengliang moved to Shenzhen with his uncle at a young age, his Dongbei background would still be there. After speaking to the director Zhang Xiaobo, Xiao Zhan was clear - from his look to his heart, Liu Zhengliang had to be be integrated into everything Dongbei.Original article

Translated excerpts from the cover story in the October edition of Vogue China: Xiao Zhan - Now Is Everything

🧵

#xiaozhan

Xiao Zhan in a white blazer Xiao Zhan always dreams during filming. In April of this year, when he was in Qingdao filming The Infinite Ten Days, he kept dreaming of a room, about 15 square meters in size. He was prepared for it. After a few days, he started to ponder its cause. The Infinite Ten Days is set in a timeloop, with many scenes filmed in that room. "Filming every day, to the point of forgetting yourself, forgetting what time it is, trapped in that room even in sleep," he said, reminiscing. "I'm not the actor Xiao Zhan, I'm really in that room, doing something related to the plot. For half a month, I had the dream every day."Dreams are commonly thought of as a transference of pressure, a reflection of your obsessions. Often whatever you think about during the day ends up in your dream at night. In the teaser announcing the start of filming, Xiao Zhan has only one line: "my name is Qi Xia. I'm going to start lying now." To play this character who blurs the lines between good and bad presented him with some difficulty for a while. "He lives his own lie, and has to carry out the missions he's given. There's the feeling of a game within a game," he explained. "This causes the character to be restless and cautious, and habitually suspicious."Original article

The VOGUE editorial team suddenly received a realistic AI-generated image, sparking discussion.

Can AI replace a photo shoot? If everything can be AI-generated, does the editors' work matter? We asked #XiaoZhan.

And his answer was…
