"I was like her (Zhang's role in I Belonged to You) when I was younger-innocent, facing people without a mask," says Zhang.
"But as I have gained more fans and a reputation, I've been protected by some masks.
"But I had better not be like the princess who always lives in camouflage. I don't expect to be the smartest person in the world, but I want to remain a sincere one."
Zhang also says that the biggest advantage of becoming famous is that she has gained more confidence.
"I used to choose only roles based on my life experiences," she says.
"But, Go Princess Go has shown me that I can push boundaries by going beyond my experiences. That's why I admire American actress Jennifer Lawrence. She shows a maturity on screen that goes far beyond her 26 years."
