Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

"As for your comments on my hairstyle and makeup, some foreign media outlets have indeed commented that I am just average, and I do not deny that."

Because I have my own aesthetic sense, what clothes I wear and what hair color I dye are my own preferences, and downward depravity is not freedom.

I don't need to change to cater to the market, because I am first and foremost myself, and I believe that being happy and beautiful is more important.

After saying this, Tang Yu laughed and teased him.

"All of the above is nonsense. In fact, as a celebrity, when I sign certain endorsement contracts, the length and color of my hair must be consistent with the publicity during that period."

Don't pay too much attention to celebrities' makeup and hairstyles; they don't always have much to do with my own personality or preferences.

It's mainly related to money; after all, I'd have to pay compensation if I breached the contract.

After he said that, the atmosphere at the interview instantly became lively again.

Tang Yu considered these minor difficulties insignificant, but foreign media reporters asked much more direct questions.

Chapter 34 Tang Yu 34

After the May Fourth Youth Day, Tang Yu and her team began preparing for a global concert tour.

The first stop was in Beijing in June, so Tang Yu stayed in Beijing for rehearsals in May.

During this period, Tang Yu shot the covers of many domestic fashion magazines and also accepted several media interviews.

After all, this domestic tour covers many cities, and giving interviews to promote the concert is a mutually beneficial arrangement.

During this process, Tang Yu received many invitations from variety shows, but she declined them all.

After all, she hasn't been promoting a new album recently, so appearing on variety shows wouldn't make much sense for her.

However, there was one program that Tang Yu considered.

"Yang Lan Interviews?"

"After all, most of your domestic fans don't understand English, even though you've done a lot of stand-up comedy abroad and introduced your life."

But you still occasionally need to appear on one or two programs in China to let your fans know about you. "Yang Lan Interview" is considered a relatively formal interview program.

Hearing Yang Ling say that, Tang Yu thought for a moment and then asked for the resources to watch a few episodes of the show.

"Then let's schedule it for next week. I still have to shoot magazine photos and commercials this week."

Many domestic brands have approached Tang Yu, hoping she will endorse their products, and have offered her a very high endorsement fee.

"A fool wouldn't make money if he could," Tang Yu said, selecting some suitable and legitimate brands and currently communicating with them about the advertising process.

I estimate I'll be filming a lot of commercials during this time in the country.

Before meeting Yang Lan, Tang Yu filmed a Mercedes-Benz commercial, which is expected to air on television soon.

It's a pretty cool advertisement.

During the recording of the program that day, Tang Yu listened to the opening introduction of her experiences over the past few years, praising her as a source of pride for the Chinese people, while the fans in the audience applauded excitedly.

She adopted a natural expression and then walked onto the stage to greet Yang Lan.

"Welcome Ms. Tang Yu to Yang Lan's Interview. When I first met Ms. Tang Yu today, we chatted for a few minutes in the dressing room."

I asked Ms. Tang Yu why she had given so few personal interviews over the years, and I think you would never guess how she answered.

Tang Yu smiled and then answered the audience.

"Because what you say before you turn eighteen will be considered unbelievable, as if you are young and frivolous, and you will also be considered ignorant."

Therefore, I think it's better to participate in interviews when I'm older, because I can clearly say that I can take responsibility for my words and actions.

Everyone laughed when Tang Yu said this.

"But you are only 21 years old this year, yet you are already a world-renowned international superstar, having won countless awards and honors both domestically and internationally."

Last year, you received recognition at the Golden Globe Awards, Grammy Awards, and Oscars. It seems that your life has reached its peak. Will this affect your future?

After all, many people feel lost after reaching the very top, unsure of what their next goal should be.

This question made Tang Yu laugh.

"Regarding your description of this highest peak, I admit that in the current world, popular culture in Europe and America does indeed represent global recognition and the highest honor at present."

But the world is actually changing. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river"—this isn't a joke, but an objective law governing the changes in the material world.

"I can't say what the world will be like in thirty years, but I think there should be more prestigious awards in the world in thirty years."

I may have faded into obscurity by then, or I may have reached another peak with another award, so my life has not actually reached its zenith. As long as the world continues to change, there should still be many pursuits in my life.

After all, people thirty years ago could never have imagined that today's internet world would be so exciting, and that there would definitely be a technological explosion.

What we see in science fiction movies often has some application in reality.

After Tang Yu finished speaking, the fans in the audience applauded enthusiastically.

"It seems that you haven't experienced the troubles of getting lost since you became famous at a young age. You've always been very clear about your life plans over the years."

You always appear glamorous on stage, and your life seems to be smooth sailing in both career and love. But have you encountered any difficulties along the way? Have you ever felt lost or in pain?

This question made Tang Yu smile. The biggest setback in her life was meeting such a biological father; everything else was fine.

"I don't know why the public has this impression that geniuses will inevitably be confused and bewildered, and will inevitably be beaten down by society."

Actually, I've never been naive or fantasizing, because I've seen through human nature and self-interest since I was a child.

If as a child I thought that whoever had the bigger fist had the right to speak, then as I grew up I realized that controlling the discourse within the rules and using those rules to achieve success in my career has always been my survival secret.

I don't expect anyone's favor, nor do I expect good luck to fall from the sky, and I certainly don't expect to succeed after doing a lousy job.

Therefore, I have not encountered any setbacks in my career, nor have I experienced confusion or pain along this path.

Because my personality dictates that I solve problems immediately when they arise; I won't let them fester and cause me further internal conflict and suffering.

Upon hearing this answer, Yang Lan asked curiously.

"In your more than 20 years of life, since you became famous, have there been any moments that made you feel confused or painful? Do you enjoy your work and life every day?"

This topic made Tang Yu laugh out loud.

"That's impossible. What I just described was that kind of overwhelming feeling of despair that would make me despair about life, which is definitely not true."

But I'm a normal person too. If the meal I eat today isn't good, I'll be very unhappy with the chef and then curse the restaurant in my heart.

If I'm walking down the street and someone bumps into me for no reason, I'll secretly curse that person to get bumped into a few times in the future.

It's impossible for me to be calm and happy about everything; I experience all sorts of little emotions every day, but those emotions don't linger into the next day.

After making this playful remark, Yang Lan changed her approach and asked a different question.

"So what is the biggest challenge in your life? After all, you have always been very successful in your career. I am very curious about what kind of challenges geniuses like you find difficult."

"Perhaps I will struggle with loneliness for the rest of my life, or perhaps everyone has had this feeling: no one can fully understand you."

Loneliness is an eternal theme for humanity, and an emotion I can never escape in my life.

After Tang Yu answered the question, Yang Lan spoke again.

"Can't love and family make up for it?"

"There are 24 hours in a day. Even if my family and I are all at home and not working, he will still play on his phone and I will play computer games."

We don't spend all our time talking to each other except when we're sleeping. Maybe couples in the throes of new love are like that for a few days, but after a while, we each do our own thing.

Even at home, sometimes he reads his book and I read mine, and we don't interfere with each other at these times, because we both need a quiet and private world.

Sometimes this feeling is called loneliness, sometimes it's a sense of relaxation and peace, and sometimes it's even about enjoying solitude.

Chapter 35 Tang Yu 35

"I think the outside world has always paid too much attention to your love life. The media often reports on your breakups and reconciliations, but actually, it seems that there aren't that many dramatic events in your relationship?"

Yang Lan's question made Tang Yu nod with a smile.

"So far, we have never had a cold war or broken up. In the stories fabricated by the media, we often quarrel, make up, quarrel and break up again. I don't even want to refute these kinds of news, because there are such rumors every year."

When the topic of love comes up, Yang Lan naturally has many more questions to ask.

"I bet you have a lot of suitors. How did you two get together back then? The fans in the audience must be very curious."

How should I describe this relationship? Actually, there weren't many romantic scenes.

"As the public knows, Robert and I met because of filming Harry Potter, and then over the next few years, we went to many cities for promotional activities and gradually got to know each other."

In addition, we had many mutual acquaintances in our social circles, so we often met up for meals, which helped us get to know each other's personalities and interests better. After he confessed his feelings, we tried dating.

After Tang Yu finished explaining, Yang Lan asked curiously.

"Didn't you develop feelings for each other while filming?"

"They must find each other's appearance pleasing, because without that basic condition, they wouldn't date later."

But I was too young then, and Robert didn't dare to have such thoughts.

After Tang Yu finished speaking, the fans in the audience all laughed.

"But you had so many suitors at the time, why did you choose Robert? Was there some special feeling between you?"

This question reminded Tang Yu of something funny.

"I believe in love at first sight, but it's a bit difficult for me."

After I filmed the Harry Potter movies when I was fourteen, I did have a lot of suitors, but I thought most of them were crazy.

Yang Lan didn't understand this question, so she pressed for an answer.

"why?"

"I'm in my twenties now. If I don't have a boyfriend, I can accept dating someone in their thirties, but I would think someone in their forties is too old."

But when I was a teenager, if someone over twenty pursued me, I would think he was sick. What's the difference between that and pedophilia?

So during that time, I really hated those kinds of men because I thought they were just too despicable.

"Although Robert is three years older than me, we can consider him to be the same age, so he was among the candidates who pursued me back then."
