every day, she stays up late with her manager and the two of them retouch photos, edit videos and write posts for all the different social media platforms. it feels like a family workshop pic.twitter.com/08yoL7K3RU
#GuoXiaoting: everyone is so involuted nowadays. you have to make so much content for different platforms. in the old days, actors were only responsible for filming. now it's like a contest of who has the most and the best content#LoveBetweenFairyAndDevil #BeingAHero #CDrama pic.twitter.com/NX5iuDYGMO

#GuoXiaoting loves both her roles in #LoveBetweenFairyAndDevil and #BeingAHero. but a few years ago, she refused to do xianxia dramas. when xianxia got hot, filming got faster, dubbing actors became a norm. she felt people didn't take production as seriously as before#CDrama pic.twitter.com/f8k0VEe9mj

#GuoXiaoting: years ago, when i did xyz drama, i often cried at the end of the day. the filming process was very smooth but i was very unhappy. i felt like a prop every day. i wore pretty costumes and my skin was polished until you couldn't see the pores 😅#CDrama pic.twitter.com/n5u88cuRwc

#GuoXiaoting on past bad drama experiences

on set, i really felt as though i was shooting an ad. they'd tell you: “stand here, say these lines, ok stop... now i want you to cry. now smile and skip around.” there was no continuity. i was like, “what am i doing here?”#CDrama pic.twitter.com/j8OwgDL4Ue
before 2020, #GuoXiaoting could only choose between “rotten” and “more rotten” scripts

“i didn't get the punchlines and a lot were made up on the spot. many of us actors felt so awkward. we forced ourselves to act in them”#CDrama pic.twitter.com/C3jjPUsmNV
many of these “rotten” dramas still haven't aired#GuoXiaoting: praying that they will never air 😂😂😂#CDrama pic.twitter.com/NY5vdUJMWQ

#GuoXiaoting is watching the finale of #LoveBetweenFairyAndDevil. at her final scene with #XuHaiqiao, she was pulled back into her character and broke down.
