"The Story of Rose" is currently being broadcast on Jiangsu Satellite TV. In the play, Huang Zhenhua, played by Tong Dawei, is humorous and easy-going. Because he takes great care of his younger sister Huang Yimei (played by Liu Yifei), he is called the "sister-protecting devil" by the audience, and he likes to be called the "national uncle". Recently, in an interview with reporters, Tong Dawei shared some interesting things about playing Huang Zhenhua.

lost 7 pounds in 6 days for the role

Before starring in "The Story of a Rose", Tong Dawei had collaborated with director Wang Jun and established a deep sense of trust. Unexpectedly, this trust almost caused Tong Dawei to make a mistake. He said: "Because we were so familiar, Director Wang Jun and I didn't meet in person after we decided on the role. According to the description in the script, Huang Zhenhua is a bit potbellied, so I let myself go a little bit and didn't even eat. Taboo. On the day when the makeup was set, Director Wang Jun looked shocked when he saw me, and asked me to lose weight immediately. Since I only had one week after the makeup was set, I used the rapid weight loss method to lose weight in 6 days. He lost 7 pounds. "

In the play, Huang Zhenhua's parents are professors at Tsinghua University. He has a smart and beautiful sister, and he is also an accomplished architect. In Tong Dawei's view, Huang Zhenhua lives in a happy family, so he is sincere and very confident. "When I first came into contact with the script, I liked the role of Huang Zhenhua very much. I think this character is very three-dimensional, down-to-earth, and responsible." ".

Compared with his sister's emotional ups and downs, Huang Zhenhua's relationship was smoother, and he had emotional entanglements with Bai Xiaohe and Su Gengsheng. Tong Dawei said that Huang Zhenhua fell in love at first sight with Bai Xiaohe: "Bai Xiaohe is the girl who shares Huang Zhenhua's aesthetic point of view." Although the two met on a blind date, Huang Zhenhua "got over it" and chose to take the initiative to contact and express his affection. It's a pity that "flowing water has feelings, falling flowers have no intention", Huang Zhenhua and Bai Xiaohe did not get together in the end.

Huang Zhenhua’s relationship with Su Gengsheng is “no acquaintance without fighting”. The two were not friendly when they first met, but Huang Zhenhua gradually fell in love with her as they got along. Tong Dawei said: "Huang Zhenhua and Su Gengsheng changed from happy enemies to lovers. They started from arguing, became friends, and then developed step by step to 'Why do I feel a little itchy when I can't see this person?' In fact, Huang Zhenhua has many things about himself. The emotional attitude and rhythm were almost broken and changed by Su Gengsheng, but Huang Zhenhua still recognized her and chose to continue. "

Drawing on the relationship between father and daughter to play brother and sister

Huang Zhenhua is usually easy-going and easy to talk to, but when it comes to his younger sister. , it is easy to "explode", and was nicknamed the "sister-protecting maniac" by the audience, and even liked the title of "national uncle". Tong Dawei joked that he was very happy to have a very beautiful sister, but he was also very troubled. As a brother, he was very worried, "Not to mention the fact that when my sister grows up, people often sing at the door and send flowers. When I was a child, there must be boys going to school. He (Huang Zhenhua) should have dealt with situations like blocking my sister at the door."

This is the first time that Tong Dawei "acts as a brother" in a drama, and he is under a lot of pressure. He said: "I don't have a sister in my life. At first, I didn't know how to find the feeling of brother and sister. Later, my wife gave me a suggestion and asked me to find a way to get along with my daughter." This also gave Tong Dawei a new Inspiration: "For example, the way you look at your daughter, the way your daughter does something wrong, how she is angry, etc. This way, I think it seems more accurate. In fact, the relationship between a brother and his sister is similar to that between a father and his daughter. The brother is awesome It’s all trivial matters, but the bigger things are all decided by my sister.” During the filming process, he and Liu Yifei quickly established a brother-sister relationship, and the two had many on-the-spot performances based on tacit understanding and trust. In some scenes where there are no lines, the two people can communicate through their eyes and expressions. After filming, the two still refer to each other as brother and sister.

In fact, Tong Dawei knew Liu Yifei somewhat before filming. "I watched her performance in "Mulan" before and thought her performance was particularly good, so I asked a mutual friend to convey my praise.The first thing I did after turning on the phone was to find Liu Yifei and ask this friend if he had conveyed my message, but I found that he had not! Therefore, I repeated these words again in front of Liu Yifei herself. "
