Before filming began, Zhong Hanliang was originally scheduled to play the dragon dance sheng, and Liu Kaiwei played Guan Houpu. After getting the script, Liu Kaiwei and Zhong Hanliang each began to seriously speculate on the role. However, with the further communication of the screenwriter, director, costume modeling and other creative team members, and the discussion and analysis of the personality of the characters, almost everyone believes that Liu Kaiwei is more suitable for playing the role of Dragon Dance Sheng, whether in terms of appearance or temperament - although Dragon Dance Sheng is stubborn and "screwed", this "bad guy" who has both positive and negative bodies is more consistent with Liu Kaiwei's tough appearance. In Liu Kaiwei's view, Long Wusheng is also very different from his previous roles, a person with a very contradictory, tangled and complex personality, which can be called a fusion of demons and angels. On the contrary, Zhong Hanliang's temperament is very "literary", but it is closer to kindness, sunshine, justice, and bookish Houpu. Everyone agreed that compared with Liu Kaiwei, he can also interpret the role of Houpu more accurately. Judging from the small sample design drawings hand-drawn by the costume modeling on the images of Liu Kaiwei and Zhong Hanliang, it is also Liu Kaiwei who is more suitable for playing the young master of the mansion; Zhong Hanliang is more able to control the shape of the cold door students. And the drama was directed by Lai Shuiqing, who is also a famous director from Hong Kong, who has filmed "Tianya Mingyue Dao" that is being broadcast on Hunan Satellite TV, and "Princess Diao Man", "New Goodbye Sunny Day" and other famous works, and finally after several businesses, it was determined that Liu Kaiwei would play the role of Dragon Dance Sheng, and Zhong Hanliang would play Guan Houpu [1].
