Aya said in an issue of "The Coming of Kangxi": "I am a comedy character with a tragic personality." After saying that, Little S laughed, Cai Kangyong looked serious, and Aya seemed to be smiling but not smiling. . I have always felt that this is a representative scene, which not only reflects the positioning of the three people in the show, but also reflects the characters of the three people to a certain extent.
Four years ago, "Kangxi Is Coming" stopped airing, marking the end of the golden era of Taiwanese variety shows. The former sister group has also begun to decline. Big S has no works for a long time, and now her masterpiece is Husband and Children. Pace Wu’s dream of becoming a wealthy family is getting further and further away. Little S’s new program and transformation are not going smoothly either...
< p> On the other hand, Aya, the little follower back then, served as the host and producer in many variety shows such as "Adventures in Life", "Nice to Meet You", etc. In addition to ushering in another peak in her career, she also attracted more people Get to know her other side: intelligence.She is no longer the Aya who sang "Red Bean, Big Red Bean, Taro", no longer the Aya who was teased by her sisters and stood in the corner, but a middle-aged woman. Then live out my own Aya.
Playing ugly and being teased by big and small S is Aya's fixed script in the early "I Guess I Guess I Guess Guess" and "Kangxi Is Coming". Her role positioning is similar to Chen Handian.
Someone asked why Aya was included in the sister group "Seven Fairies". Big S directly said, "Because we also need errands." Little S said jokingly: "Being friends with Aya is just to bring out my own beauty." Regardless of whether Aya is present or not, as long as the words ugly, flat-chested, transgender, plastic surgery, etc. are mentioned, Little S will be on the radar and immediately Bring the topic to Aya.
The most controversial thing is that Aya and Big S recorded "We Are Real Friends" together. Big S saw the video recorded by his idol Kimura Takuya for himself and was so excited that he burst into tears, and everyone They are all immersed in Big S’s star-chasing story. However, when Aya mentioned her idol Andy Lau, someone immediately shouted "Shut up".
Aya had no choice but to talk about her past cooperation with Andy Lau, but before she could finish her words, she was stabbed by the big S: "Wa Tsai is really unlucky, he really doesn't need it. People like you come to help him promote it."
There was an uproar immediately after the show was aired. Some netizens said that Big S was mentally bullying. Aya quickly left the show to put out the fire and said: "It's all just the effect of the show. "And shouted to Big S on Weibo: "Let others see your tenderness."
After 20 years of friendship, it is difficult for outsiders to evaluate their status in their own minds, and it is even harder to evaluate them. Ways of getting along. In terms of career, Big S is considered to be Aya's mentor. She gave Aya a hand in the early days and recommended her to the producer to be the location host of "I Guess I Guess I Guess" and gave her a chance to enter Taiwan's entertainment industry. A stepping stone. When her career was at a low point, Xiao S frequently cheered Aya up and found solutions for her. When Aya became pregnant out of wedlock, Big S was so excited that she shed tears.
In Aya's words, the friendship with Big S is like "a sad sadomasochistic drama."
Aya, who seems to be very slow-tempered, is actually a very independent person.
When she was a teenager, Aya had an average appearance and average eloquence, but she wanted to be an artist. Her mother advised her, "You are not the one who eats that kind of rice." However, Aya was admitted to the Hua Hua High School, the only pure arts high school in Taiwan. Gang Art School, where I met Xiao S and Wu Pace.
After her debut, Wu Zongxian and Wang Weizhong, two big bosses in Taiwan's entertainment industry, were very optimistic about Aya. Wu Zongxian said: "There is only one ugly female host among a hundred hosts, and ugly women are the rarest." Wang Weizhong produced Aya's first album "Ice March", and the magical theme song made her popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Well, Aya's most famous program "I Guess I Guess I Guess Guess" was also produced by Wang Weizhong.
However, in 2006, when Aya was 30 years old, she chose not to renew her contract with the company, gave up "I Guess", which she had hosted for 10 years and was at its peak, went to study abroad, and completely disappeared from people's sight. for 2 years.
After returning from abroad, Aya returned to "I Guess". This time she started from scratch and achieved even better results. In 2008, she and Wu Zongxian won the Taiwan Golden Bell Award for "Best Variety Show Host" . The audience discovered that Aya is no longer the crazy girl she was before. She is humorous, confident, and flexible, and no longer impresses the audience with being ugly and exaggeratedly funny.
At the age of 37, Aya resigned from "I Guess" for the second time and became one of the first batch of artists to develop from Taiwan to the mainland. Her goal is not just a host, but a producer, Producers should produce programs that they really like.
Aya said in the show that she had been preparing to become a program producer for ten years, and it took a lot of effort to figure out what she wanted and what she could do. After hearing this, Little S leaned on Aya's shoulder and cried.
At this moment, little S is sincerely envious of Aya, who once had low self-esteem, and has her own world.
Zhou Xun and Aya said: "There should not be only one way to live life." Aya felt deeply.
So these two representative actresses over 40 worked together to create a lifestyle variety show "Nice to Meet You" on Douyin and Xigua Video. They went to explore the mountains and rivers together, get to know all kinds of people, and experience different things. life.
In one episode, Zhou Xun and Aya came to a small village in Taizhou, Zhejiang. The boss was a couple who moved from the city to the countryside. The two built a small village in the quiet village. A unique B&B. Aya said that this kind of life is too "luxury". "Luxury does not necessarily mean how much bags you want to buy or what you do. Luxury means whether there is an opportunity for you to slow down and experience life."
It can be seen that Zhou Xun and Aya really like this kind of living situation. They sit on the floor with the elderly, chatting about daily life, bringing water to the elderly and brown sugar taro made by themselves. They are no longer celebrities, but neighbors in the village. Little sister, the emotions shown in the live broadcast camera are very real.
It is said that anxiety is a common psychological state among contemporary people. The program "Nice to Meet You" is like a social experiment led by two middle-aged women, trying to make people calm down. Let more people believe that life is actually a process of constantly reconciling with oneself. If you find the balance between life and career, you can feel the most authentic joy from life.
Aya is really suitable for this program, because her life is about constantly competing with herself and reconciling with herself. She has been a follower since childhood, a singer, a funny location host, a female comedian, and a program producer. Not a step was favored, but she succeeded. And every time she reached a high place, she could retreat calmly.
Female comedians may be supporting characters on stage, but in real life they are all strong actors with scripts for leading heroines.
