In a recent livestream promoting a brand, Duong Tu attracted attention when she frankly shared her views on loving herself - a seemingly familiar topic but is viewed by the actress in a very personal way.
When the MC asked: "What do you think about loving yourself?", Duong Tu shared 3 things that make her love herself more every day: "Loving yourself means eating less, sleeping more and abstaining from sex (beauty).
The short but implied answer quickly became the focus of discussion. According to Yang Zi, "eating less" is not forcing yourself to fast, but controlling portion sizes, eating lightly and avoiding excessive weight gain to reduce the burden on the body.
Sleeping a lot" is a way to restore energy, balance emotions amidst a busy schedule. And "abstinence" is explained by her as restrained desire, limiting unnecessary energy consumption to focus energy on work and personal development.
Not only sharing about life philosophy, Duong Tu also revealed the pressures behind the new film project "Hoa ngoc lan nở, nguoi lai den" (Jade Lily Blooms, People Come Again). The actress admitted that this is a bigger challenge than "Cây sinh mệnh" (The Tree of Life) - a film that she previously considered a milestone beyond her limits.
I used to think that after overcoming "Cây sinh mệnh" (The Tree of Life), the next work would probably be a little lighter. Unexpectedly, when it came to "Hoa ngọc lan nở, người lại đến" (Jade Lily Blooms, People Come Again), the difficulty was even higher," she said.
The biggest challenge came from the director's request: all actors must use Chinese in the film. Initially, Duong Tu thought that it was only necessary to adjust the intonation according to the local accent, while the dialogue was still spoken in Mandarin. However, when she joined the crew, she "realized" that most of her co-stars were originally from Shanghai and wanted to fully express this dialect on screen.
In the end, everyone had to speak entirely in Shanghai," she recounted. To keep up with the schedule, the film crew invited teachers to teach Yang Zi separately every day. Not stopping there, in the film she also had to use Sichuan dialect, making the pressure many times higher.
From simple living views to seriousness in the profession, Yang Zi's sharing shows that behind the image of a star is discipline and constant effort. For her, loving herself is not only taking care of physical health, but also a way to maintain energy to be ready to face all challenges in her career.
