Idol drama is my starting point, not my final destination
Golden Thought: Youth is a type of attitude
Chen Qiao En is not a pretty but foolish girl. When talking to her, she is to the point and gives short answers. Her companys’ workers say that that’s her style. This kind of style, put in today’s circumstances, is called having character but in the past, it would be have been being uncooperative or difficult. Qiao En herself is very clear on this and directly said that “I’ve always been me, it’s just the viewpoint of those looking at me that has changed.” She started out from lively variety shows to the passerby in idol dramas to the supporting female that the male lead does not love but because of her character problem, she once had conflict with her managing company and ended up being frozen for a year where she lived a life where her next day wasn’t secured. Today, she’s able to hold her head up high but Chen Qiao En is exceptionally calm. Her manager Sun De Rong once declared that she has aged and is no longer suitable for idol dramas but she silently worked to push “Fated to Love You”’s ratings up to the peak. How popular is she right now? Even the Japan media and “Wall Street Journal” did special reports on the rating miracles. Standing up for herself, the rating queen has also won the chance to break into the mainland market. She was specially picked by Guo De Gang to act in his television drama.
Judging Character: I’m not Cinderella
A pair of black-framed spectacle, a standard working class face, a simple blouse and long skirt, base on this kind of look that will be overshadowed when thrown into the busy city, Chen Qiao En successfully built the most popular girl of idol dramas “Chen Xin Yi”. In the first episode, Cinderella had a prince to help provide her with her glass heels and transform her into a stunning princess but Qiao En does not think that she is acting out Cinderella at all. “The audience today is past the stage of looking for hot males and gorgeous female alone. The main thing is still the storyline and the acting of the cast. The character that I acted out was actually just a girl close to reality. Additionally, idol dramas no longer give people a fantasy-like feeling like in the past.”
Judging abilities: Just because I’m older by a few years won’t make it seem like I’m aging.
“Fated to Love You” episode one used the huge breakthrough in it’s scenes and the bold bed scene as promotion technique. The male and female lead having pregnancy out of wedlock storyline was also first for Taiwan’s idol dramas. Mature woman Chen Qiao En who’s already 29 also started to openly show off her good figure which is vastly different from the pure and innocent look of many female leads. Regarding the gossip surrounding the bed scene, Chen Qiao En’s answer was very light and mature. “Originally, I didn’t know that the bed scene will be filmed to that large an extent but when I saw the script, I understood that that was necessary for the script.” Regarding the script being idiotic, her growing age has not caused her to have any queries about her character. Instead, she reminded “That’s not idiotic, it’s just being exaggerated or comical because it is required for the drama.” Only managing to secure the seat of idol drama rating queen at 29 and having lots of young and beautiful little girls chasing after, Chen Qiao En is not fearful at all. “Youth should be a type of attitude. It won’t seem like I’m aging just because I’m older by a few years.”
Regarding bed scene, I’ve thought about it. I’m ready. If you think it’s okay, I can fully, I mean fully give myself to you.
Judging wealth: Value jump by 180 thousand
Chen Qiao En directly benefit from the popularity of her drama. Besides gaining the praise of Guo De Gang, there are also 3 mainland drama companies that have extended their branch to her, offering a pay of up to 70 thousand yuan which is around 280 NT which is 180 thousand NT higher than her current value. Through advertisements and endorsements, she also had 4million income flowing into her pocket. Qiao En who has became a rich woman also have another title, leading lady that lucks her husband, as the recent males that have worked with her have all managed to earn lots of money. Qiao En however, does not claim credit “The male co-stars that I worked with are all very good. They have their own unique style and way of acting. Rather than saying that I bring luck to them, it should be that I’m lucky.”
Not placing her attention on the males, Qiao En’s next step is to be more all-rounded. She doesn’t plan on giving up singing and dancing and she wishes to film a movie. Mainland’s Zhang Jing Chu and Sun Li are all people that she admires. Using her own saying “Idol drama is my starting point, not my final destination.”
