Q: when you first got in touch with the TIA project,
What was your percentage of initial love toward this role?
YY: percentage of initial love is 99%
And the remaining 1% was a bit of uneasy (from nervous or pressure)
Q: when you first saw him (Han Li)
What kind of fan were you?
YY: I was his career fan
Q: want to see him scavenger hunt (pick up what others left)
And become stronger and stronger along the way
YY: yes, want him to become stronger and more powerful
Q: the part you enjoyed acting the most was when he was the strongest?
YY: there were many parts I enjoyed
The beginning part when he stood against Dr. Mo
And in later parts
For example, some high difficulty wire action scenes
And many cool fight scenes
Q: Shooting those fight scenes
must have consumed a lot of energy from you
So, how do you usually replenish energy?
YY: I usually just.... eat!
you have to eat first
eat till you are full
Q: Do you mean eating fat-losing meals, or?
YY: Just eat normally
because the energy consumption was indeed tremendous
In the beginning
we had a lot of professional training
to help us get used to the intensity roughly
in advance
Later on, during shooting
I certainly had to make sure I had enough sleep
My daily routine/schedule was more regular relatively speaking
Q: So, during shooting, what made you happiest?
YY: The happiest thing was
to be able to fly in the sky everyday
It was the happiest thing
It was a lot of fun
Because you don't usually get so many opportunities
to fly here and there everyday
For example, at the beginning, we were shooting inside the studio
You probably only saw
a corner of the studio
But when you flew high above
you'd thought "hey, there are these things in the studio..."
You could observe more people and things
who's hiding there drinking milk tea again
Q: Because the original novel and anime of this drama were both very popular
have you seen or
heard about this IP before?
YY: After I read the script
I watched the anime
and tried to understand TIA deeper
Q: Then, if the book fans
anime fans, and drama fans all joined into one chat group
The name of this group is called "TIA praising group"
How would you promote the TIA drama version
YY: If I enter that group
I would first change the name of the group
"TIA three-world fellow cultivators viewing group"
After changing it
I'll @ everybody and send out red envelopes
Q: I thought you are going to give out
the little green bottle
They all said
"I can't imagine
if I use the little green bottle on my purse/wallet
how happy would I be!"
YY: it'd certainly multiply, multiply, and multiply...
Q: If you're going to open a cultivation class now
what are the requirements/qualifications to enter the class?
YY: I think the requirement is that
first, he must be capable to run like Han Li
I think stamina is the first criterion, must be able to run
Q: How about the spiritual root?
Does he/she need better spiritual roots
to enter?
YY: Well, Han Li himself is also a "fake spiritual root"
Spiritual roots are really not that important
As long as he/she doesn't have laughing spiritual root...
Running while laughing hahaha.... X
While others are chasing him/her, he/she goes hahaha....
That would be too funny
And another entering criterion is
act prudently
and forge ahead with courage
Q: Feels like we are developing 3-good students
If he/she has lustful, lazy, and (food) craving spiritual roots
can he/she still enter this class?
YY: it's ok, as long as he has the two qualifications and can follow the class rule
then there's no problem
A big girl or boy always crazing for food can still enter the class
Q: Are you going to change/correct them?
YY: I... I'll try my best
because I have a super-sized treadmill
Don't let me run alone
we can all get on it
like in a summer camp and exercise together on it
Q: Is this a weight loss training camp?
But what if he/she is lazy?
YY: Lazy spiritual root.... still has to rely on himself/herself
[Master cannot help that much]
There are things you just can't force
Q: if somebody enter the class
because the admire your good look
He/she comes to class everyday just to look at you
YY: Somebody looking at me
everyday like a camera?
I'll send him/her to another class
Please, please go to the next class
Q: What unique qualities did you give to the character, Han Li?
And what qualities did he give you?
YY: Rather than saying I gave Han Li any quality
I think Han Li gave me more qualities
Like the resilience to stick to your goals
Q: A handsome face, for example
or, the contrast between the beginning and later
YY: Thank you for seeing the contrast
Q: Others go ahead with 10% odds of winning
But you'd only go after you have 90% odds of winning
YY: I'd stay back first
I gave him a nickname called "the king of self-protection first that cannot be found any where else in the world"
He is "the most steady bro in the world"
whatever he did
he was absolutely certain
I think in this aspect
Han Li and I are relatively
similar
We are the type that move forward in steady steps
Q: were there many scenes shot in real sceneries?
Did you feel the group was being a traveling frog?
YY: "traveling frog", you mean taking a lot of pictures?
In our group, it was director Yang Yang who
took a lot of pictures for us
really beautiful sceneries
Q: Then, in your phone's photo album, what percentage contained "ordinary people"?
YY: More pictures contained "scenery" (than "people")
because the scenery was really....
It was also my first time visiting Xinjiang
The scenery left me in awe
I feel cultivators really exist there
It feels like only you can only cultivate to become immortal at a place like that
It was like a secret realm
And the air
and the entire environment made you feel so comfortable
You'd enjoy completing your work in that environment
Q: Did you ask somebody to take some "picture of my life" pictures?
YY: My "picture of my life" pictures should all be in the drama
Q: People also joked and said that since Han Li can run so well
can he help me complete my 800m run (running test in school)?
YY: I can complete your physical fitness test for you
but you have to give me spiritual stones
Do you have spiritual stones?
Q: If we ask you to take a physical fitness test now
are you confident to do well?
YY: Me taking a physical fitness test now?
(Q: yes)
YY: Why would I do that to myself?
I am in an interview and everything was fine, aren't I?
Why should I go out and
take a physical fitness test
Let me tell you how many seconds it takes for me to run the distance
Q: People said Han Li's has the most steps
Li NaiWen Laoshi also confirmed
So, when you were in the group
was your WeChat steps really high?
I've never deliberately checked my WeChat steps
but I think it should be pretty high
Because I had a super-sized treadmill
Q: Did you turn on the WeChat step count?
YY: Me, myself?
I didn't...
[step count function off]
Q: You didn't turn it on!
Then, what were you blindly talking about!?!?!
YY: I can feel it myself
And I also know Luo Yan Bu (the fast steps that Li FeiYu taught him)
I know Luo Yan Bu
I use many steps as one step
At the set
I was on the wire and did all kinds of runs...
Q: Did you turn it (step count function) off yourself
because you didn't want to look at the WeChat step count?
YY: I just never turned it on
Because when I exercise
For example, when I exercise, I would run
like jogging
I'd give myself a fixed distance
like 3~5 km
And when I run, I don't bring a watch or phone
to record how many meters I have run
Q: If you got 1st place (in running, based on the app?), you can take over the front page
YY: Let me turn on the WeChat (step count) function
on my phone after this
From today on
right after we finish this interview
I'll go take a physical fitness test
after the test, I will start
recording my steps everyday
Q: We see that you "ran your business" with high quality contents
And you "open your shop" for us every month on the 9th
I'd like to know why is that?
Is there any special meaning?
YY: Every month on the 9th
first of all, it's because I'm lazy
Staff: My master is also lazy <-- I don't get this
YY: no no no...
[just kidding]
It's just because the 9th is a very special day
to me
Because I was born on the 9th
So, having a fixed, special time
together with everybody
sharing some of my pictures
from my daily life
Sharing with the fans
sharing with everybody
not lazy, not lazy
Although we have lazy and (food) craving girls in our class
I am not that kind of person
Q: If you are a self-media influencer
what path would you go on to become successful?
YY: I think no matter which path/style I go on
the chance of huge success is unlikely...
If I were to be a self-media influencer
I think I would be a pet influencer
Because I have a double-eye mouse in the drama
If it was my real-life me as a self-media influence
I would be a health preservation influencer
Q: As a health preservation influencer
If you were to share one health preservation knowledge everyday
what would you share?
YY: You can try practicing Ba-Duan-Jin (eight silky movement, a kind of QiGong, he did it in one of the interviews back in 2022?)
Or, maybe an exercise influencer
I think I'm also more like this
I do jump ropes in my daily life as well
because I don't think
one needs to force him/herself to exercise
for a fixed amount everyday
I think this would become...
like I become an athlete
It's more important to enjoy the process
Q: So, when you watch (the influencer's broadcast), do you watch health preservation influencers most of the time?
YY: not really (hahaha...)
Sometimes I'd see some
recommended by everybody
For example, it is dog days of summer right now (the most hot and humid days)
So, I'd be recommended videos
that show you what to do during these hod and humid days
Like the initial phase and second phase...
During the dog days of summer
try not to drink anything that's super cold
Or, some said you should get some sun exposure
actually, I'm also
just like everybody
I'm also a netizen
Q: How about travel influencer?
YY: Travel!
Yes, yes, yes
I didn't think of this
I'm definitely a travel influencer
I am a scenery influencer
A travel and scenery influencer who sometimes appears in the picture
show up in the picture just like this
Q: You are the watermark of the destination
The watermark on the travel diary
