Chu Liu Xiang @ GUANGZHOU DAILY 072606

When talking about the television version of Chu Liu Xiang, many would think of Zheng Shaoqiu's portrayal of the main role of "Legend of Chu Liu Xiang" as a classic. Now, the Chu Liu Xiang soon to be shown on screen to the audience is never before acted in ancient costume play Zhu Xiao Tian. Regarding Zhu Xiao Tian's performance, "fans of Gu Long" has all sorts of questions: Is his appearance too plump? Is he able to portray Chu Liuxiang's Casanova attitude? Does he have the possibility to achieve even surmounted Zheng Shaoqiu height?


At present, invested to be shot by Nan Fang television station and Guangdong Qiang Shi ancient costume big play "Chu Liu Xiang" is now shooting in Xinjiang Shanshan, reporter specially went there to visit, and interviewed on-the-scene this play's leading character Zhu Xiao Tian and producer You Jianming. Zhu Xiao Tian speaks frankly, in his portrayal of "Chu Liu Xiang", Chu Liu Xiang is not merely a chivalrous hero, more often at times is an idol, besides upholding justice in the world, must also spend massive amount of time in romance.


Article Written By: Qian Jia Yun, Mo Si Qi Ge Photography: Zhou Xian Shooting scene straight strikes "the dark horse"
Chu Liu Xiang


July in Xinjiang Shanshan, the highest temperature may reach 43 degrees Celsius Under the hot sun, the drama team is shooting a scene of "Big Desert" in "Chu Liu Xiang", "Chu Liu Xiang" bids farewell to "Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hong" and "Li Hong Siu", "Song Tian er" suddenly rushes to reach Chu Liu Xiang who is seeing them off, and tells him, "Shi Guan Yin" has already greatly violated the commandment of
killing. Although it's only a simple several lens shot, but because camera position and the actor standing position always does not  coordinate well, back and forth has shot for half an hour. Most pitiful is Liu Jia who is acting as Song Tian er, time after time
exerting energy to climb up the sand slope, and time after time face covered with yellow sand "dives" to get down.


Because the Xinjiang ultraviolet ray is intense, having entered the group for nearly a month, Zhu Xiao Tian is already no longer the "white face playboy" Ximen appearance in the idol play "
Meteor Garden", skin tanned swarthy. Although from the appearance indeed did not have the same elegant bone feeling as Zheng Shaoqiu, however has another type of fashionable, young feel, and certainly would not give the person feelings about obese.


The day the reporter visited the shooting scene, Zhu Xiao Tian appears very lively, often joking with people around, even has to find the opportunity to accept the interview, but he has not gotten one time NG, forgotten his lines, or laugh during a performance and so on. The director slightly directs, he can comprehend. The first time shooting in play in which the characters wear ancient costumes, his performance makes the director and the producer extremely satisfied. Producer You
Jianming disclosed: Actually the time when Zhu Xiao Tian just entered the group his performance indeed causes people to worry. Therefore, the drama team specially invited a teacher to teach Zhu Xiao Tian eye, body movement. Producer You Jianming said "After more than 10 days his performance made us feel very relieved. Now is even gradually entering excellent state".


Plot Disclosed


What type is Zhu Xiao Tian's version of Chu Liu Xiang


Reporter: In what condition did you at first entered "Chu Liu Xiang"?


Zhu Xiao Tian: Because I previously has not acted in play in which the characters wear ancient costumes, therefore actually simply did not know how to act. I still remember during the initial shooting, although I wore ancient costume, but speech, attitude, movement when turning around and so on I myself also think looked like acting while wearing western-style suit, was extremely weird. Fortunately the drama
team helped me to employ a teacher, therefore now I already know ancient costumes play eye movement, how the body movement should be. At least when "gong shou" (movement of cupping one hand in the other across the chest) would not seem like "bai nian".


Reporter: In your mind, how do you think Chu Liu Xiang should be like?


Zhu Xiao Tian: I thought he is a Chinese version ancient costume Sherlock Holmes. Extremely likes to mind other people's business type of person. When coming across matters would not be able not to resist getting involved. Thinking pattern is very modern, always wants to let bad guys receive legal sanction. Attitude towards women is, does not reject anyone, but does not comply anyone.


Reporter: Then how is your portrayal of Chu Liu Xiang like?


Zhu Xiao Tian: Because Zheng Shaoqiu edition is deeply ingrained in people's hearts, therefore we would still retain Chu Liu Xiang's signature movements, for instance movement of touching the nose. But my movement in comparison with Zheng Shaoqiu will be slightly different. Moreover Chu Liu Xiang in the original work does not have any weapon, I let Chu Liu Xiang continuously hold a fan, not only to display his handsomeness but also to let him have one more weapon. Besides this, in my edition, Chu Liu Xiang appears more sincere towards women. But this does not mean being overtly pure, only is not that experienced in the sentimental aspect. Because I think Chu Liu Xiang is actually quite weak when dealing with in women's issues.

He and women's relations


Loves most is Yu Guan Yin


Sun Fei Fei (acts as Li Hong Siu): In the play Li Hong Siu does not have superb skills of camouflage as in the novel. Li Hong Siu originally is passionately devoted to Chu Liu Xiang, but upon discovering Chu Liu Xiang having no feelings for her, has no choice but to give up, ultimately is together with Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hong.
In this edition, Chu Liu Xiang unlike the original and in other editions is not as "Casanova". His love towards Su Rongrong is more like a responsibility, actually he loves most is still Yu Guan Yin. But, ultimately he and Yu Guan Yin is still not able to be together.


Liu Jia (acts as Song Tian er): In the play, Chu Liu Xiang is very affectionate, is very good at romance. Song Tian er is always in love with Chu Liu Xiang, and keeps following him.


He and man's relations


With Wu Hua is a little special


"Chu Liu Xiang" original director Ju Jue Liang once disclosed that, in new edition "Chu Liu Xiang" will have Chu Liu Xiang and Wu Hua "broke back" plot. This news, has attracted the media's attention regarding new edition "Chu Liu Xiang". But along with Ju Jue Liang "finished class", "broke back" plot seems to have already been cancelled. Zhu Xiao Tian explains that, in play Chu Liu Xiang and Wu Hua`s sentiments are a little special, not exactly as simple as friendship but not to the extent of "broke back".


Wang Chuan Yi (acts as Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hong): In play Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hong is a eccentric murderer, until meeting Chu Liu Xiang, only then knew one could really have friends in the world. They knew each other extremely well, will not become love rivals because of Li Hong Siu.


Zhu Xiao Tian


Clears up suspicious hearsay


Clears up suspicion one: I have not collapsed


Just seeing Zhu Xiao Tian, reporter discovered him pinning a small white flower on his under costume sleeve ---because all in white, therefore not too conspicuous, just like nobody can see from his smiling face the shadow of his father dying a few days ago. "I knew on-line rumored I lost control of my emotions and lost voice crying but I really did not do so." "Father is a Gu Long fan, before losing consciousness he saw my image and likes it very much. Therefore I will persist until the end, to shoot the play well." You Jianming disclosed that, Zhu Xiao Tian upon second day of reaching the drama team, his father is already critically ill, at that time he knew the news his mood is somewhat affected, as soon as he has time makes phone call and send sms. Because has not told any person, some staff misunderstand him not working seriously. "This child is very not easy."


Clears up suspicions two: I have not lost weight


Initially knowing Zhu Xiao Tian will be acting as Chu Liu Xiang, everybody is very worried will see in screen "fat version"
Chu Liu Xiang. But at the scene, reporter saw wearing play costume Zhu Xiao Tian is not as "fat" as imagine. Did he specially lose weight for this play?


Zhu Xiao Tian said "Has not lost weight ah. My weight for many years has been around the same. I actually really did not understand why always a while some people will say I fat, a while also some people said I lose weight successfully, was thin. I did not have any big change."


Clears up suspicions three: I have not forced the director to finish class


In the
Shanghai television festival held in June this year, "Chu Liu Xiang" drama team once announced that, this play director was Ju Jue Liang. But, before reporter goes to the shooting scene for "Chu Liu Xiang", director Ju Jue Liang already "finishes class". Regarding the reason for director Ju Jue Liang "finish class", earlier rumored to be due to Zhu Xiao Tian's behavior. Zhu Xiao Tian for the first time accept reporter's interview regarding this replied: "I self-examined do not have such a big strength can replace the director? All these are chaotic hearsay. Today is the first time after I start shooting that I see a reporter, first time accept the interview, before I have not said anything to the media. The director leaves, we actors also only receive the notice."


Producer You Jianming explained: "Just starting that director indeed did not coordinate sufficiently smoothly with Zhu Xiao Tian. Is also inconsistent in certain ideas with everybody. The drama team upon careful consideration have replaced the director."

Clears up suspicions four: I did not help people wash underwear


Once some news stated that, Chen Haomin acting as Hu Tiehua relations with Zhu Xiao Tian is extremely good, Zhu Xiao Tian also once helped Chen Haomin to wash the underwear. Whether this news is true?


A little melancholy upon hearing reporter's inquiry, Zhu Xiao Tian: "I want to tell everybody, I have not helped Chen Haomin to wash underwear. Making a movie in this drama team, seems that rumors are a lot more, more than any drama team I've worked with before. Upon hearing these rumors, initially I felt very bad, but afterwards I also thought things through. These rumors, happen to prove people paid attention to our play. After thinking it through, it did not matter"

Zhu Xiao Tian Returns to Taiwan for Fathers Funeral, Obeys Fathers Last Words And Conforms to Simplicity.


Yesterday ZXT asked for a leave from CLX, from Xin Jiang he hastens his return to
Taipei for the funeral of his father. He is preparing for this weekends funeral. It was reported that last month Zhu Papa was admitted to the hospital telling him over and over again that whatever happens he only wants a low-key and simple funeral, therefore he doesnt send an obituary notice to his entertainment circle friends. He asked for one weeks leave from CLX, and they will stand to lose 3 million RMB.

Before ZXT arrived in XinJiang to film, he accompanied his father to be admitted in the hospital, that time his father made it clear to him, if his condition deteriorates, his funeral arrangements should not be extravagant. Earlier this month, the hospital already informed family members that his condition has worsened, at first ZXT was thinking of returning home, but a V.I.P. told him that he can only return once he has completed filming, as a result he was unable to be at his fathers side during his last moments.

Chu Liu Xiang will lose NT$12,000,000


Because his father left him when he was a child, he and his sister studied and lived with other families until they became adults, and returned home only on New Years Day and other festivals. He has fulfilled his fathers last wish of a low-key funeral. He told a friend: This is the last time I can follow my fathers request. The trip back was really hard, he was in the car for 4 hours to reach
Urumqi airport, he passed through Beijing, Hong Kong, before finally reaching Taiwan. Yesterday, it seemed that the other F4 member will be able to find the time from their busy schedules to participate in the activities for ZXTs father, but the company spokesperson denied that the 3 others would come.


The production group of CLX allowed ZXT to have a break for 6 days, the production group said, One day is equivalent to 500 thousand RMB of losses, 6 days is equivalent to 3 million RMB.


Investor Qiang Shi Media deputy You Jian Ming said: We cant do anything, but ZXT told me, wait for me till I finish all my personal matters, I will do my best in the drama, we are now waiting for his return.

Unable To Stand The Scorching Sun Zhu Xiao Tian Suffers Heat-Stroke and Faints

Zhu Xiao Tian was previously scheduled on the 24th to return to
taiwan. While filming "The Legend of Chu Liu Xiang", in the afternoon of the 23rd he suffers from heat-stroke and faints. The drama team urgently calls a doctor for him to be given a dextrose. Return to Taiwan will be temporarily postponed


On the 23rd Xinjiang temperature reached above 42 degrees celsius. One look over the area and all you'll see is a vast desert of yellow sand. Including Chen Hao Min, Xiao Qang, Wang Zhuan Yi and other actors are all dehydrated. "The Legend of Chu Liu Xiang" staff disclosed that Zhu Xiao Tian playing Chu Liu Xiang, because the temperature is too high, suffers from heat-stroke and faints. The drama team has to stop filming and take him back to the hotel to rest, and ask a doctor to come for his dextrose as supplement for physical strength.


Producer You Jian Ming denying Zhu Xiao Tian's illness, added that, "I just met him a few days ago, also drinking together with several reporters, very good". But Zhu Xiao Tian's manager Zhi Xiang Li expressed, because Zhu Xiao Tian is catching up with the filming, heavy pressure gives rise to stomach cramps. In addition Xinjiang temperature is excessively high, physical strength is not sustained. The other night he was all right after being put under dextrose. The two parties' statements obviously have a disparity.


Zhi Xiang Li expressed, Xinjiang sun is difficult to withstand. When Zhu Xiao Tian films the drama, an assistant is nearby to help and opens an umbrella for cover to no avail. Because the sandstorm is too big, blowing away several umbrellas. Because the body is unwell, Zhu Xiao Tian's return to
Taiwan to rush home for his father's funeral may possibly be temporarily postponed. Estimate is that return could be at the end of the month. You Jian Ming expressed, when that time comes Zhu Xiao Tian will take a week long vacation, and let him attend to his father's burial and related matters. Then he will return to the drama team and concentrate on work.

Zhu Xiao Tian Films Under 40-degree Temperature, Physical Strength Deteriorates Suffers a Heat Stroke.

 
Yesterday a news story came out that Zhu Xiao Tian fainted while filming, we asked his manager Zhi Xiang Li, he said: Zhu Xiao Tian only had a dizzy spell, its not like as serious as the rumors said that he fainted.


Zhu Xiao Tian is filming the second part of CLX The Desert. Xiao Zhi said, Its not easy for a common person to adapt to the climate of the northern desert, especially for Zhu Xiao Tian who has always lived in
Taiwan. Everyday, he films under a 40-degree temperature, which is really toilsome so heat strokes are normal, that afternoon was the hottest day, ZXTs would have symptoms of stomach cramps, aside from the high temperature and outdoor shooting, the pressures of trying to finish early so that he could return to Taiwan. That night when he returned to the hotel, he requested the production staff to call for a doctor, later on he was ok already. The rumor saying that he fainted is a bit exaggerated.


Xiao Zhi said, The second day after ZXT suffered a heat stroke he promptly went back to work. Today he will go back to
Taiwan to attend to his fathers funeral this plan is unlikely to change. On August 1, as per agreement with the production group, Zhu Xiao Tian will return to Xin Jiang to continue his work. Zhu Xiao Tian told me, I will take care of my health, coordinate with the production team to the best of my ability to finish the work at hand.

Site Visit to Chu Liu Xiang, Intimate Encounter With Zhu Xiao Tian


June 20 Under the scorching sun in this desert, it was this reporters first time to visit Chu Liu Xiang, originally just wanted to see Zhu Xiao Tian acting in CLX, but after arriving, we discovered that behind all these glamour are hardships. Everyday the staff would drink 4-5 bottles of wrinkled giant hyssop health water, but everyday people suffer from heatstroke, sand blown by the wind and the scorching heat of the sun are the natural enemies of the actors.


Chen Bao: Diary entry no. 20, at the Kumuta Dessert filming scene, temperature reaches a high of 48 degrees, the burning sun and the fierce wind dry make sand get in everyones mouth, hair, ears, clothes.


Wu Hua shed blood on the site; heat stroke is a common occurrence.


On 20th
4 pm, we see the part of Wu Hua, Cui Peng is in a white robe and he does everything he can to wave his magic sword, beside him is as a staff tries to remove the grains of sand using a blasting machine and trying to blow away the yellow sand on Cui Pengs face.


Seemingly, the director appears to be dissatisfied, each time Cui Peng duplicates his last movement, one time he started waving the sword he accidentally stabs his finger making blood splatter all over. Up until the time the director shouts, cut Cui Peng isnt relieved off his heavy load.


Under this disgusting weather, it seems Cui Peng has a lot of grievances he wants to air out, he says, Every day we have to drink a lot of wrinkled giant hyssop health water and a lot of ice water, but we cant escape the heat of the sun, everyday we experience hot weather.


Heavy acting makes actors very tired and muddle headed, errors in acting lines are made.

Today they film the second part where CLX will leave the desert to pursue Song Tian Er, he informs Shi Guan Yin that there are many people near the wall who are dead. (Dont rely on this part too much I dont really understand it.)


The scene is shot in sloping sand, Song Tian Er played by Liu Jia runs down the slope of the mountain, and the director request was for it to be done over and over again, the next moment it seem she was suffering an asthma attack and confuses the lines of the script.


The script says, Or we go back to the inn and discuss it over with Hu Brother. But Liu Jia says, Or we go back to the guest house and discuss it over with Hu Brother. Causing the whole room to rock with laughter, Zhu Xiao Tian teased, Did you become silly after running?


A cup of sand, alcohol hurts Xiao Tians throat.


Towards the evening, they will be filming the last scene. In order for them to finish and film the setting of the sun, the director divides them into two groups: team A is Zhu Xiao Tian and the other team 500 meters away is Wu Hua in a pavilion. There was a big wind and in this scene two actors are seating leisurely and drinking wine after the director said cut this two couldnt gracefully stand up they discovered that their glasses were half filled with sand!

Zhu Xiao Tian is Presently Entering The Most Enjoyable Part of Filming.


There isnt a Zheng Shao Qiu basic feeling but a ZXT style.


Southern Television and GuangDong Qiang Shi TV are co- producing a big ancient drama Chu Liu Xiang they are currently in Xin Jiang Shan Shan. As for ZXT playing the part of CLX, Chu Liu Xiang fans controversies have never stopped. Questions range from whether or not ZXT is too fat for the role, or his acting isnt that mature yet, whether the explanatory notes have a loose appearance etc. all are external worries. Before this reporter went on a special trip to visit the drama, ZXT and producer You Jian Ming already accepted to be interviewed.


Central Issue # 1:


Q: Is ZXT qualified for this new edition CLX?

P: ZXT is entering his most enjoyable stage.


General Appearance of the Actor:


Q: When we got there it was the same day they were shooting The Desert they also sent off Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hong and Song Tian Er. It has almost been a month now and because of the intense rays of the sun in Xin Jiang, ZXT is no longer in an idol drama Meteor Garden no longer does he look like the white faced pampered son, Xi Men, his skin has already been darkened by the sun, dressed in a checked long gown, iron hoop hairdo, his hand holding a fan that can also be used as a weapon, quite like a hero appearance. Although from his appearance you wont see the basic grace of the Zheng Shao Qiu edition but you will find another style, you will get a younger feeling, and no way will you feel that he is fat!


Acting:

Q: When the reporters were on the scene, ZXT didnt NG, nor did he forget his lines, or laughed offensively at anyone. With the director just giving him some pointers, he was able to completely grasp what was required. Although this is the first time he would be filming an ancient drama, the director and producers are very satisfied. Producer You Jian Ming revealed, Actually, when we first began, ZXT really made people worry, that was why the production requested for a teacher who would teach him how to express with his eyes, and do body motions, ten days later we had no more worries. Right now he is in his best moment phase. When ZXT is not filming he will continue to receive training from his teacher. The director praised all his acrobatic and wu xi stunts.


Producers Praise:


At first we were considering Yan Cheng Xu and Huang Xiao Ming; although Huang Xiao Ming can portray that distinguished look his acting isnt that natural he really isnt what we had in mind, if we let Yan Cheng Xu play the role, this Chu Liu Xiang wont be interesting. ZXT inherent qualities make him a very interesting and fun person, extremely intelligent and he is a quick study, right now he already has the feel of CLX.


Central Issue # 2:


Q: Did ZXT cause the director to quit?

P: Cooperation not so smooth.


At the press conference in
Shanghai last June, we learned from Ju Jue Liang that there would be three parts for this drama Chu Liu Xiang, Wu Hua. Duan Bei, but this reporter learned that Duan Bei is cancelled because the director had quit.

K: At first there was really an idea of having these three parts but there wasnt anything concrete that was written there was only a plot. Because the director feels that men can also have sentimental feelings and that would be the only time he can be capable of handle the feelings and understand the opposite party. CLX hasnt reached one month of filming but the director quit already he didnt leave anything definite with regards to the plot.


Regarding the reason of Ju Jue Mings quitting, earlier on it was said the ZXT was the reason. A few days ago ZXT accepted an interview to explain the matter, After thinking about it, I dont have a big influence on changing a director, and this incident has turned to be a confusing matter. Today is the first time I have been interviewed since I started filming; previously I will simply not answer any of the medias word. Regarding the directors departure, we are only actors and are only notified on this matter.


But the producer explained: At the beginning ZXT and the directors cooperation wasnt that smooth, and the director was inconsistent with the ideas of everyone, so after much consideration we decided to replace him.


Central Issue # 3:


Q: Have denied washing the underwear of Chen Hao Min.

K: Although personal friendships are good but not to the extent of washing anothers underwear.

Chu Liu Xiangs good brother is Hu Tie Hua. Although Gu Long fans know that CLX and HTH have a lot of affection for each other, there were some news that came out that ZXT washed the underwear of CHM making the readers shocked.


In response to this, ZXT didnt immediately answer, but he was being asked by the reporters non-stop. How come there are so many rumors in this drama? I have never experienced a drama like this. When my father passed away, my mood fell and I was not capable of filming. But the truth of the matter is, when I heard the news I only rested for two days and then I continued working. Its but natural that Chen Hao Min and I would have a good relationship, because I have no experience in an ancient drama, he has taught me a lot of things. But not up to the extent as this disgusting rumor.


K: XiangShuai is weak with women.


The years have swiftly gone by, ZXT has been in the business for 7 years already. These 7 years F4 has been famous, from an unknown he became famous, famous in the shops and kitchens of
Japan, he became so famous because he is one of Asias most beautiful males, but after their solo flight, suddenly fan adulation has slowly been decreasing. He has experienced that rise and fall in the entertainment circle.


He isnt clear why people think he is fat.


Q: When you got the role of CLX what was your condition?


K: Because I have no experience in an ancient drama, I didnt know the basic principles in acting. I still remember the time when we started filming, although I was wearing an ancient costume, my way of talking, manner of speaking I felt that it was like I was still wearing western style of clothes, it was really awkward, fortunately the production team invited a teacher for me, he taught me the essentials on how to act in an opera, right now I know how to act in an ancient drama, how to move my body, at least I can do the movement of cupping my hands while the other one is across my chest like the way you greet someone happy new year.

You made everyone anxious that they will have a fat CLX, but looking at you now it seems you are not fat at all, could it be that for this drama you really tried to lose weight?


K: I havent reduced any fat ah. My body weight has been constant all these years. I really cant understand why some people can say that I am fat, on one had people here say I have succeeded in losing weight. I really dont think I have changed that much.

Previously, the manner in which he treated a woman was so disappointing.


How do you think should CLX act?


K: I think he is the Chinese version of Sherlock Holmes, he is really meddlesome, when you run into him you just dont want to care about him. But in these modern times you could say that, he would always wants to obey the law and punish people who dont follow, no woman can refuse him but not everyone can comply with him.


How will you portray the role of CLX?


K: Because Zheng Shao Qius performance was impressed on everyones minds, we will continue to do some of the trademark moves of CLX, for instance the touching of the nose, but my style will be different from ZSQ. He is better looking, my version will be like a massage, because the original is something like a rhinitis. My movement will be the same as Chen Hao Min, because Hu Tie Hua is used to copying CLX, so our feel will be the same, in edition to this our edition will be more faithful to the women, but not so much because I think the CLX deals with women is also a bit weak.

Then can you act like CLX?


K: Actually before
Meteor Garden, the way I treat woman was no good. I am not considerate to women, but after the filming I have learned to be a gentleman and to be more considerate to women.


In the drama CLX you have many relationships, who do you like?


K: Its best for you to watch out the part with Xiao Qiang, she is really pretty, and very lovable, aside from that the character of Song Tian Er, Liu Jias opponent. I often feel that my mental age is 40, but when I look her I feel the invincibility of youth, it seems at that time I became like a kid.


I am beggining to like wu shu more.


Are you beginning to like wu shu more?


K: My father is a Gu Long fan, when I was officially announced to be the new CLX, I had my costume fitting at
Beijing and I showed my father the picture, that time his condition has not worsened. He really liked how I looked, that is why I am going to be very serious in making good in this role. Thats the least I can do for my father.

I am beginning to like wu shu arts more and more, although the production group arranged a double for me, but if I can do what is required of me I will do it to the best of my ability. Up to the present, filming acrobatic Chinese scenes Fortunately, I havent received any injuries. I have Wu Xing with me I always drag him to study gong fu.


Aside from wu shu what else do you like?


K: Ride the horse, in the past I used to ride the motorbike, but after learning how to ride the horse I have no interest in bikes. Its because the horse is a living thing. I have also asked the drama team to buy a horse for me, but right now I have not decided where to raise this horse.
