[Oh, that's really true. I'm a little worried about whether Gong Li can adapt to that kind of comedic style.]
[But there aren't many other good candidates. Dilraba and Liu Yifei are good at youth campus dramas or romance dramas, but they're not really suited for comedies, are they?]
Don't worry, do you think Director Xu didn't consider this issue? Since he chose Gong Li as the female lead this time, it means there won't be any problems with the actress.

As soon as she arrived on set, she raised this question with Xu Lu:

"Is it really possible? But isn't this a comedy?"

Xu Lu could only explain carefully:
"Although it's a comedy, a movie can't be made up entirely of comedians, right?"

Hearing this, Gong Li finally felt relieved.
Of course, this is also thanks to her previous collaboration on the film "To Live," which gave her a good understanding of Director Xu.
Knowing that the other party is not the kind of 'tyrant on set' that is rumored, they usually don't criticize actors easily.
