Zhang Yixing: to be lazy is to deceive both the audience and yourself**

In the film Legend, Zhang Yixing played the roles of ancient and modern respectively, in which the ancient role was Hua Jun, a general of the Western Han Dynasty, and he was also a sharpshooter. Zhang Yixing said bluntly that he was most excited to play this role for two reasons: "the first is that I can finally have the opportunity to play an ancient soldier like General Meng Yi played by my eldest brother in the Myth. When I watched "Myth" before, the most impressive scene was that General Meng Yi stood there fighting his opponent with a long knife against his back and did not fall down until the last minute. That scene shocked me and can be said to affect me to this day. It always reminds me that no matter what difficulties I encounter, I must remember that there is a 'knife' behind my back, and no matter what happens, I must not fall down. " When it comes to the second exciting point, it is the opportunity to fight side by side with Jackie Chan. Zhang Yixing said: "there was nothing I could do in Kung Fu Yoga before, and this time I will never let my eldest brother fight to the last minute alone!"

In order to make his "sharpshooter" Hua Jun more persuasive, Zhang Yixing spent most of his time on the set "bow in hand", whether it was an action scene on a horse or a play against the enemy at close range. He held his bow in his hand at any time to practice his movements repeatedly, constantly strengthening his muscle memory, and often went to Big Brother Jackie Chan, director Tang Jili and action director Yuan de to confirm whether each action was accurate. Zhang Yixing said he had never been exposed to martial arts before, but he learned surprisingly fast, according to Yuan de, the action director. In the film, there is an action that requires him to shoot three arrows at a time. Zhang Yixing learned it once and tried it again. The third time he started shooting directly, and he could finish it neatly. Such a performance made Jackie Chan couldn't help praising him as a "talented player."

In addition to the bow in hand, Zhang Yixing also took the initiative to increase his physical training and response training courses, and practiced boxing with the teacher between filming to keep the body in the best shape. in addition to being competent for riding and shooting, he can also complete the action play against the enemy with his own designed "double bow" at close range. In the film, he plays Huajun, whether it is 360-degree jump, turn over and kill, half kneel and rotate the left and right legs, or turn over the horse, etc., all of which can be successfully completed after countless exercises. Director Tang Jili said with a smile: "when I chatted with my eldest brother in private, I said that this bow seems to have grown on Yixing. He was practicing when we were not filming, and he was also practicing when we ate. I felt that he might sleep with the bow in his arms." Zhang Yixing says that practice is not something to be lazy: "this is the experience I learned when I was learning to dance. You may think it's okay to be lazy once, but the audience must be able to see it, so laziness is deceiving both the audience and yourself."

do it again at any time. Jackie Chan: Zhang Yixing can be a "star"

Zhang Yixing has always regarded Jackie Chan as an idol and spiritual pillar, and Jackie Chan also cared for Zhang Yixing as a "die-hard fan" on the set, not only guiding Zhang Yixing's fighting movements, but also escorting Zhang Yixing's fighting on the set all the time. When Zhang Yixing had a relapse of an old injury because of long practice, Jackie Chan would immediately go up and ask about the injury; and when Zhang Yixing successfully completed the difficult move of flying to the Xiongnu samurai, the first time was to seek feedback from Jackie Chan. Jackie Chan will also give affirmation and encouragement with his eyes and gestures not far away. The "two-way trip" between idols and fans shows the most amazing power at this moment.

Jackie Chan revealed that Zhang Yixing told himself more than once that he wanted to try action, and this time he finally "had a good time" in the Legend. "as we all know, Tang Jili always has a lot of dangerous moves in action scenes. I used to do them, but now he has come to share some of them for me, rolling down from the mountain, jumping from a high place or from a horse, and bumping into a tree or ice. They are all very dangerous movements, because he already has a waist injury. Several times I saw him practice until he couldn't stand up, and he needed the staff to support him to get up. Then I wanted to keep shooting, and I wanted to find him a stand-in, and he refused. Then he kept saying'do it again 'and' try it again'at the scene. He really worked hard. I think he could be a star player in the future. "
