I have played lots of real-life characters
These roles are quite hard to act
We know each other in real life
And sometimes it needs the real thing
I think my success lies not so much in hard work as in luck
“When I was pregnant”
“I told you we should buy a house”
“But you just brushed me off”
“Well. Look at the house prices now”
I really work well
Together with Huatao, Liuliu and Huang Lei
I remember that when we shot Life is A Long Quite River
One day after I finished my part, I was going to leave
They reminded me, “the director hasn’t watched it”
I said, “from what I know of him, he will like this”
Then I pretended to ask him, “Is that scene okay?”
He said, “sure, the last one is perfect”
I said, “I knew you would like the last one”
I don’t think I have done a crossover or a breakthrough. That’s what other people think
Ruijun gave me the script
I read it and I told him I liked it
Then he said I should join them. That’s it.
I stooped for several months
Which hurt my spleen and stomach
One of my legs became shorter than the other
And I had scoliosis
Have you ever seen an actress drinking TCM soup before the camera
Return to Dust was quite difficult for me
You can’t master a dialect in a short time
I stayed there for two months
“I have boiled the water for a few times”
“But you didn’t come”
I got sick the first day I arrived there
And I didn’t like pasta. But there was nothing but pasta
My agent went there with me
But he flew back the next day
He said he couldn’t stand the toilet
He was freaked out
I was left there alone
Once I even dropped my phone into the toilet
I was wrapped in an overcoat and doing a videocall in the toilet
I was speaking, like blah blah blah
Then suddenly I was terrified
Because I found a ram was licking my butt
And it was breathing with its nose
I let out a cry
The ram was scared too, and it took a few steps back
Then oops, my phone dropped into the toilet
And the person on the line asked, “where are you? what happened?”
I couldn’t do nothing but to pick up my phone
Wash and wipe it, and continue to use it
We often worked in the fields
After we had breakfast
We went out to work and came back at sunset
At first when they chatted, I couldn’t understand them
Later after I learned the dialect, I often asked them, “who were you talking about?”
I was really nosy
The villager said, “I’ll take you to see her”, and I was like “really?”
I asked them, “where is his wife?” It was like I was a local there
You might feel the life is hard there. But I don’t
Sometimes I enjoy enduring
I like to compete with time without knowing what the final result will be
When I was young, I would surely choose intense and colorful love
As I grow older, sometimes I feel love is a burden
For middle-aged women like me
We think it’s quite nice to be alone
Without kids or family
I just said that I hated to be his mother
I often feel like this
It’s common that children drive their parents crazy sometimes
He’s very rebellious
He told me yesterday
“Mom, I know that I’m more rebellious than other children”
“It’s okay,” I said, “being rebellious is normal for a child”
“You want to celebrate? What’s wrong with you?”
“You rank the last one in your class. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
I’m not like Wenjie in A Little Reunion
To be honest
I don’t like to see children doing so much homework after class
Because I think there’re so many things more important than homework
They should go to see how tadpoles become frogs
They should read useless books
It’s quite strange that he reads less recently
But I haven’t asked him about it
Because Daniel was strict to himself when he was younger
I think he will correct himself if he feels he needs to
At such a stage of life
I feel confused sometimes
I used to add things to my life
Such as buying a house, buying a car
Feeling accomplished, eating good food, wearing nice clothes
Now I’m sure about what I don’t want
I still cannot accept myself wholly
Sometimes I hate myself for no reason
I feel I’m not the kind of person who loves herself so much
So I take that as my goal
I don’t know what my next stage will be like
Let’s just leave it to time
