China News Service Client Beijing, July 15 (Yuan Xiuyue) actor Tan Zhuo is trying to unlock every possibility in his career. Eleven years ago, she made the news headline as the heroine of Lou Ye's new film. In the same year, she was nominated for the best actress at the Cannes Film Festival with "Spring Breeze Night".

  The label of the literary film has followed her for a long time. During that time, she intentionally or unintentionally kept a certain distance from the mainstream film and television circle. She and Wang Baoqiang filmed "Hello!" "Mr. Tree", another "Little Lotus" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, but many viewers did not know her name.

  At that time, Tan Zhuo did not strongly recognize her identity as an actor. When someone asked her what she was doing, she would also make up an identity, or simply say that she did not have a job and was supported by her mother.

  It wasn't until 2018 that several of her works were released at the same time, everyone knows that the original single mother Liu Sihui in "I am not a drug god", the high concubine in the Yanxi Raiders, and the rural women in "Cracking Silent" All are the same actor.

  The identity of an actor really took root in Tan Zhuo. She described herself as an "intuitive actor", and what the script gave her, it would grow naturally. This kind of keen sensitivity greatly helped her performance.

  After 11 years in the industry, she seems to be more clear about what she wants. Last year, she starred in two commercial films "Heroes of Fire" and "Manslaughter", and a rival play between her and Chen Chong was widely circulated online. This year, she also has the first online drama and variety show.

  The heroine of the literary film relies on "Yan Xi Raiders", "I'm not a drug god" and "Missed Kill" to fan the circle? Behind this is a change in career direction, and Tan Zhuo's psychological "growth." Recording variety shows requires a "variety sense", filming the show needs to cooperate with publicity, and wants to perform more roles, she needs to increase exposure. These are all understood and actively completed, and since she decided to do it, she will not be awkward.

  This summer, Qin Hao and Zhang Songwen, two other actors in "The Evening of the Spring Breeze", regained their attention. Some people say that they are getting red late, and in Tan Zhuo's view, red and red will have their own destiny sooner or later, and have his own time.

  "Everything has a destiny arrangement, so everyone knows the destiny." Tan Zhuo said in an exclusive interview with Chinanews.com.

【Dialogue with Tan Zhuo

Talking about variety: Variety is not just shallow, not afraid to consume yourself

China News Service: "Handy Detective" is your first variety show as a resident guest. Are there any concerns about the variety show? Are you afraid to consume yourself?

Tan Zhuo: I'm not afraid of it. As for consumption, it is actually consumed, including filming, so this thing must be weighed and grasped. I'm actually a very simple person. If I don't go, I might not go. If I go, I will sort it out clearly. I won't get there again.

  In the past, everyone's understanding of variety shows may be more one-sided. I think variety shows only convey a shallow thing. In fact, it is not just superficial, because it will face different people and have different contents. This show added a cultural part, I think it is a merit. Judging from the business, it may not be a big explosion, but it does not waste my life, I think the audience accepts it is also valuable.

Talking about exposure: To increase the possibility of the role, it should be within the limits

China News Service: You once said in an interview that you have changed a lot since 2015, and you have also moved from literary and artistic films to commercialization in your career. Do you still adapt?

Tan Zhuo: Actually, there is no discomfort. The final result must be clear to me. Whether the result is good or bad, I paid for it myself. I know that this job is of this nature. In addition to filming, actors also have to cooperate with the promotion of the play. Therefore, I am very active to complete, for example, some publicity programs are too routine, we will also discuss with the team, how to make more meaningful within the feasible range, not just copy the text. Regarding the selection of projects, whether we talk about variety shows or what kind of dramas to pick, we also hope to choose more quality ones.

China News: Regarding exposure, some actors will tend to maintain mystery, and some are willing to show their private lives. What do you think?

Tan Zhuo: I think everything must be adequate, and must have a degree. People don’t understand you, and your judgment about your work will be biased. If you overexpose your personal part, I think it will also cause problems. Because when choosing roles, the producers and directors will have an inertia. If you have played a role before, they will put you in that circle. I think this thing is mutual. You want everyone to know you, and you have to take some positive actions instead of complaining about why only these characters come to you.

Talk about performance: I am an intuitive actor, and I will have my own time sooner or later

China News Service : Many of the female roles you play have a large span, such as Gu Xianglan in "Dream of Dreams", single mother in "I am not a drug god", and rural women in "Cracking Silent", how to grasp their differences ?

Tan Zhuo: I am still an intuitive actor. After I get the script, what does that thing give me? It will grow naturally. I feel that this keen feeling is very helpful for me to be an actor.

China News Service : You have collaborated with Qin Hao and Zhang Songwen on "The Evening of Spring Breeze", and their "Secret Corner" is on fire. Many people say that they are getting red lately. How do you think middle-aged actors become popular again?

Tan Zhuo: I think Hongde has his destiny sooner or later, and he has his own time. For me, I don’t think much about these things, everything has a destiny arrangement, so I will do my best to know the destiny of others, and I don’t think it is human power. (Finish)
