[Reporter Li Shaoling/Taipei Report] Guo Tangyou has participated in drama performances such as "Spicy Fresh Master", "Worldly Love", and "Guppy".

Guo Tangyou has been practicing plastic surgery for many years. In August this year, he was invited to Hong Kong to open a "Craniofacial Structural Conditioning Class". For the first time, he brought his many years of expertise overseas as a lecturer. After returning to Taiwan, he received other overseas cooperation inquiries. From being "too high to be filmed" to winning the championship with words, and then from being a plastic surgeon to standing on the overseas podium in Shanghai, two seemingly completely different paths have yielded results. Now that I have multiple works in hand, I even hope that one day I will personally perform "Bai Wuchang" tailor-made for me, and truly bring my own story to the screen.

"Mr. Black and White" takes the theme of the impermanence of black and white coming to the world and explores the black, white and gray areas of human nature. Among them, "White Impermanence" is a character tailor-made for himself by Guo Tangyou, who used his height of 192 centimeters as creative inspiration. Recalling that he started writing the script in 2017, he asked senior showbiz actor Lang Zujun to help direct the first script. The strictness at the time made him wonder: "Am I writing a script or learning Chinese again?" After the script was rejected and the proposal hit a wall, he never gave up in the past 9 years. Now he is finally seen through words. He said emotionally: "The story can be false, but the emotion must be true."

Talking about his first teaching trip to Hong Kong, Guo Tangyou admitted that he was quite surprised when he received the invitation. From serving guests, leading teams, teaching students to establishing associations, he never thought that one day he would be able to stand on an overseas podium in Shanghai. This "Craniofacial Structural Conditioning Class" attracted people from the health, sports and conditioning-related industries to participate. The students not only learned techniques, but also asked about the structure and operation principles of the human body. One person said after the class: "I thought I was just here to learn about faces, but in the end I found out that I was re-understanding the entire human body structure." He was very impressed.

Guo Tangyou said that the course observes the overall structure and balance from the head, jaw, neck to shoulders and neck, and fascial tension. It adheres to the concept of "no separation of muscles and bones" and combines Wudang osteopathology and modern body aesthetics. After returning to Taiwan, there have been other inquiries about overseas cooperation. Although the next stop is kept secret for the time being, he smiled and revealed: "There are already people knocking on the door!" He hopes to let more Taiwanese technology and talents be seen overseas.

With his dual roles as a plastic surgeon and a creator, Guo Tangyou joked that he lived a "double life"! Currently, he has 6 works in his hands, including "Beyond Normal", "Mr. Black and White", "Sound Yin", "Guanyin", "Red Umbrella: Borrowing Wish" and "The Manipulation Expert", spanning psychological thriller, crime, supernatural and commercial entertainment. He said with a smile: "In the daytime, I am telling people that muscles and bones are inseparable. When I go home at night, I wonder how this character is going to die!"

Works have already been submitted and cooperation is being negotiated. A prequel is also planned for "The Master", which will reveal the unexplained relationships between the characters in the first season. He predicted: "The story of "The Master" is not over yet." As for "Mr. Black and White" if there is a chance to be filmed, he hopes to perform "Bai Wuchang" himself, but emphasized: "The success of the story is more important than whether Guo Tangyou stands in front of the camera." He also hopes to see "screenwriter Guo Tangyou" at the end of movies or TV series in the future.
