The youth school drama "It's the Teacher" mainly tells the story of Xiangdongnan, a once-popular music superstar. After being forced to withdraw from the entertainment industry due to being involved in a turmoil, he became a music teacher and head teacher, and finally became a music teacher and head teacher. A story of growing together.
Chen Xuedong, who plays Xiangdongnan, has chosen to calm down this time in the face of many unexpected praises. He believes that after working for so many years, he will naturally find a role that suits him slowly.
Even in the face of negative comments, Chen Xuedong learned to take it lightly, "Because (doing anything) is useless, anyway, the world is so big, there will always be people who like me, and there will always be people who don't like me."

Perhaps this is the power of growth, teaching him how to find his own balance at work.
If he didn't become an artist, Chen Xuedong felt that he would become a music teacher just like Xiang Southeast.
Looking back on his ten-year career as an actor, Chen Xuedong said to a reporter from China News Entertainment: "Sometimes I feel that time flies very fast, and sometimes I feel that time flies very slowly." However, the past has become history, and Chen Xuedong hopes that he still has A wonderful next decade.
The excerpt from the interview is as follows:
Zhongxin Entertainment: After the show "It's the Teacher" was broadcast, many netizens praised your acting skills. How do you evaluate your acting skills?
Chen Xuedong:
I did see a lot of comments that were not the same as before after the show was broadcast. I used to see both positive and negative information, but this time I was shocked. It seems that more people praised it. Some are boasting.
I will not comment on my acting skills. I think that after working for so many years, you have been working all the time anyway, and you will gradually find a more suitable role; in other words, you will gradually accumulate experience and learn from many jobs.

Zhongxin Entertainment: In this drama, you play a music superstar. Are you still insisting on your dream of being a singer? Before your rap "Harry Potter on a broomstick" was out of the loop, what do you think?
Chen Xuedong:
Actually, I quite like singing. I never thought about giving up singing, but it is also related to opportunity.
The previous song "Fairy Tale Town" was also very unexpected.
In the past, I may have cared more about the comments of netizens, but now I feel that bringing happiness to everyone is the same, because this industry is an industry that brings happiness to everyone.
Zhongxin Entertainment: If you were not an artist, what career would you pursue?
Chen Xuedong:
If I don't become an artist, I actually want to be a teacher in the past.
Because I quite like the kind of job that teaches others my own experience and experience, the hardships I have experienced, the detours I have taken, and I don't want the children to go through it again.
(Reporter: What is a good teacher in your mind?)
It's hard to tell.
I have met several very good teachers in my life. For me, they are like my mother, who will give you a lot of love and care in addition to teaching you knowledge.
When I was in school, my favorite teacher was my vocal teacher, who also led me to the current path in life.
(Reporter: Which subject is the best when studying?)
It must be singing and music, but if it is a cultural class, I can't remember it clearly, maybe it is Chinese?

Zhongxin Entertainment: I have worked for Southeast Asia for many years but have no savings. Many netizens say it is too true! What do you think about this? Do you think young people should save more money?
Chen Xuedong:
Nowadays, many young people are moonlight, and they even spend extra money. I don't think this is a good habit.
I myself take a conservative attitude towards saving money, and I feel that some deposits will give me a sense of security.
If you don't have savings, you don't know what will happen suddenly in the future. For example, will your parents suddenly get sick one day?
And will you have an accident one day?
These situations require emergency money.
I feel like there needs to be some savings in order for this emergency to happen.
Zhongxin Entertainment: Are all the actors in this drama your first time working together? Can you teach us how to bond with someone you meet for the first time?
Chen Xuedong:
The actors in this drama are my first time working together, but I get along very well with everyone, and even now, we often chat and joke together.
If you want to get closer to the person you meet for the first time, I think the first is that you have to be noisy and active, because many people are afraid of embarrassment and don’t know what to talk about. You can start from the things you are interested in, go to Talk about something you like.
You can share something new and make people feel like you're an interesting person.
Naturally, the distance between you will be shortened.
In fact, chat is to find common interests with each other.
People are not so different from each other. After all, everyone has one or two similarities to you, or if you have one or two common hobbies, you can gradually become friends.

Zhongxin Entertainment: Some netizens commented that this drama is a love affair of "strong women and weak men". What do you think of this statement? Do you think that the relationship between men and women needs to be divided into strong and weak?
Chen Xuedong:
This show may indeed have the feeling that women are strong and men are weak, but a change occurred later, that is, when they really fell in love, the two reached a balance point.
I don't think that when in love, two people need to be strong and weak, but I think there will be differences between two people.
People with different personalities may be more stable together.
If both of them are silent and boring, then they may have a little problem together; if both are noisy, it is not very good, so one is noisy and the other is calmer, I think it is good.
Zhongxin Entertainment: People often discuss "the meaning of idols", so what do you think fans mean to idols? What kind of relationship should idols and fans have?
Chen Xuedong:
I used to think about this question (the meaning of idols), but I don't think about it anymore.
Because I think for fans, they may also gain a lot from idols.
Just like my fans would tell me, over the years, some people became teachers because of me, some people went to study music because of me, and some people went to a certain school and a certain city because of me.
I can only be strict with myself, make sure that the messages I convey are mostly positive, and then influence fans and guide them.
This may be the meaning of idols.
In fact, fans and I have grown up together, and we have come to this point only after experiencing many things.
So I especially like to chat with them as friends, it is a very natural feeling, there is no barrier.

Zhongxin Entertainment: If you see negative comments, how will you deal with them?
Chen Xuedong:
If there are negative comments, in fact, I can't handle this kind of thing.
Because it is useless, this world is so big, there will always be people who like me, and there will always be people who don't like me.
Zhongxin Entertainment: From the start of your career as an actor in 2012 to the full ten years in 2022, how do you evaluate these ten years?
Chen Xuedong:
I feel like I'm about to retire (laughs) when I hear this statement, or I've won some kind of life award.
In the past ten years, I sometimes feel that time has passed very fast, and sometimes I feel that time has passed very slowly.
Because you realize in a blink of an eye that it has been ten years, but I have experienced so many things in these ten years; sometimes I feel that it is only ten years, and how do some people work for a lifetime?
So hopefully there will be another ten years.
