Along with a new milestone in his career, the story many years ago about veteran actor Tong Dan Dan's comments for Duong Tu was also recalled by netizens.
According to Chinese media, the story happened when Duong Tu had just completed the movie "Nha co trai co gai" and was in puberty. At that time, the actress's father once asked Tong Dan Dan for her opinion on whether her daughter should take the entrance exam to the film academy or not.
Tong Dan Dan believes that Duong Tu's appearance is not in the prominent group, while the entertainment industry has many actresses with outstanding beauty. Therefore, she believes that Duong Tu's acting path will face many difficulties and advises her to focus on studying, seeing acting as a hobby instead of choosing a career.
The comment is said to have originated from the realistic perspective of a predecessor, but has had a significant impact on Duong Tu's psychology when she was young. The actress once shared that she went through puberty with weight gain, acne and did not receive many opportunities to act in movies. That made her fall into a state of pressure and lack of confidence in her appearance for a long time.
After many years of activity, Duong Tu gradually affirmed her position with a series of hit TV series and acting ability recognized by experts. Her being honored at this year's Bach Ngoc Lan award is seen by many viewers as a milestone showing that her acting ability has helped the actress overcome the prejudices she had faced.
Besides, some Chinese entertainment bloggers also believe that past experiences may make Yang Zi still sensitive to her appearance. According to these opinions, the actress often builds a beautiful image and sometimes asks her co-star about her appearance during work. However, these are mainly speculative opinions, not yet confirmed by Yang Zi.
Many viewers believe that Duong Tu's journey is proof that the success of an actress not only depends on appearance but also comes from perseverance, effort and ability to transform into the character. The new achievement at Bach Ngoc Lan is considered a worthy reward after many years of her constantly proving her ability on screen.
