Wang Hao has already watched "Being Friends". He thinks the movie is very warm: "This is a very good movie, with rich emotions, family love, Friendship, love, and emotions are beautiful things for human beings."
Regarding the role of Chen Junhe, Wang Hao said: "From the character analysis, there are actually two lines in the movie. Chen Junhe's parents passed away very early.

Although Chen Junhe in the film is not very good at studies, he is a master in playing band and table tennis. In order to play this role well, Wang Hao also deliberately learned drums and table tennis.
"I also played in a band when I was a child, and I can also A little keyboard. But Chen Junhe is a drummer. I don’t think he can do it completely. It looks too fake at first glance. Even if it is not very powerful, I still hope to know how to use it.

For example, if you want to play a doctor, you can't stay in the doctor's office every day to observe what the doctor is like. This may also delay other people's work. But documentaries will help you record what their most real life is like. In this way, it will also be helpful if you encounter the type of role you want to play.
