However, Yang Qing was really busy, Lu Xiaowei went to see her 9 times, but he didn't see her once.
Lu Xiaowei had no choice but to leave a line of words at the door of her house: "I want to film, if you want, you can come to me." ”

Zhang Kaili was just a third-tier artist without any lens and popularity at that time, and when she heard that there was a play, she was very happy, so she went with Lu Xiaowei.
Seeing that the meal was about to start, Zhang Kaili greeted Lu Xiaowei: "It's almost lunch, just eat something here, it's not too much." ”
When Lu Xiaowei heard this, his heart fluttered, and he felt that Zhang Kaili and Liu Huifang were similar, both of them were virtuous and virtuous people. He immediately made a decision and asked Zhang Kaili to play the heroine Liu Huifang.

She even had an urge to surrender, yelling at the director, please kill me quickly, I really can't stand it!
However, she was reluctant, because she had a sense of mission, that is, she could not disappoint anyone, nor could she disappoint everyone, so she had to go on. So in the process of filming, in the process of taking drugs, she endured the pain and persevered until the finale.
