“For me, music and films are complementary and must exist contemporaneously.”
LVR: You have achieved success in both music and film. What is your secret to balancing both?
Zhou Rui: I’ve talked about the relationship between music and films before. Both of them complement each other. When I read a good story or script, it actually inspires me to create music. Therefore, it is only through good stories that I can write and create good music. The music that I write then helps me to understand and interpret characters better. For me, both things are complementary and must exist contemporaneously.
LVR: Many of your fans follow your daily looks. What’s your secret to a good outfit?
Zhou Rui: I think that my daily looks depend on the current environment and other different elements and factors. For example, I would like to do some rock music now, so in that case, I would prefer to wear some cool items such as a jacket and boots.
It feels good to calm down and experience life!
LVR: What is your ideal life status?
Zhou Rui: A slow rhythm of life is what I yearn for. It is a wonderful feeling to be able to calm down and experience what life is and enjoy every moment.
LVR: What three items do you currently love?
Zhou Rui: Sunglasses, earrings, and rings. These are the three items that I wear often. Because I’m doing rock music, I usually dress in a simple style, so I pay a lot of attention to accessories that will update and enrich my whole look.
