Heart touching amazing performance-Must watch for Xiao

Xiao did a perfect awesome shot in one take for whole 4 minutes. His voice modulation and the expressions are soo realistic to watch . This is short and sweet movie about happiness, pain ,love and hope life gave us every day.
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
This is a must watch performance from Xiao. Dont miss it
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Heart warming

This may be short but the message it successfully conveyed is very deep and touching.
It is also evident that Xiao Zhan really has passion in acting. He delivered his emotions very well. His acting touched me that I just couldn't help crying. :( I'm a proud fan. :)

HIS ACTING

i've seen it a thousand times already and will rewatch another thousand times and cry without failing everytime.
this man Xiao Zhan needed a few minutes to show WHY he is and always will be the best actor. I can't explain my god the eyes the dialogues, the facial expressions and the fact he was talking to a black screen, that he cried during and after the camera cut off, that being a method actor makes him feel every emotions of the characters 10times more than other actors. No wonder they chose him as a theatre actor. He is the best out there. Absolute gem.

Very touching

He is able to express so much emotions and nuances within this short time. Can feel sadness tinged with joy and hope. It is a solo performance and yet the range of emotions conveyed is so wide and deep. An incredible actor who is so good at his craft.

Grandma, i want 2 let u hear de whole WORLD

In this story, Xiao Zhan is a guy who is relying on his hearing aid & i sworking hard to make money to buy hearing aid for his grandma who also cant hear. The resistant, the timid, yet fearless courage as he forcibly hides his difficulty in a big city is well seen.

Got me emotional. I felt all the pain and hope from Zhan-ge's acting. That was just a four minute video and he was just teary-eyed but I felt like choking because my heart broke watching this. He's soooooo good.

P.S i miss u grandma ...

Lo más hermoso que he visto

Xiao Zhan tiene una forma tan hermosa de transmitir un mundo de sentimientos y emociones. Este cortometraje es hermoso, la historia detrás es simplemente sublime y el personaje se siente tan real, tan vivo, qué bien podría tratarse de la historia de vida de tu vecino o un conocido.
A pesar de ser una historia pequeñita, dice tanto, y ni siquiera tiene un diálogo complicado o rebuscado. Es sutil pero muy expresivo al igual que Xiao Zhan y su interpretación, qué hace, al menos a mi, que mis ojos se llenen de lágrimas.
Hasta ahora, para mi, de todos sus trabajos, es la mejor actuación que he visto de Xiao Zhan.
