Both acting styles worked in this script, but Zhou Yun preferred Zhang Mo's performance.
Because she simply felt that Wan Duoyan wouldn't fall in love with a man prone to emotional outbursts, as Wan Duoyan himself is someone who easily gets angry and loses his temper. A long-lasting relationship with another emotionally excitable person is unlikely.
This was her intuition.
Xue Qin and Shi Luoqi did not announce the results on the spot.
Next came the audition for the role of Meng Fanyan.
Wui Zhichang was the first candidate.
Because of Gu Huaichun's recommendation, Zhou Yun watched Wui Zhichang's performance with more concern.
The audition included the scene where Wui Zhichang first met Wan Duoyan on the airplane.
Zhou Yun somewhat understood why Xue Qin wanted to try this scene; the main function of the character Meng Fanyan is the impact of the contrast between his "good image" at the start and his "bad image" at the end on Wan Duoyan.
