Chen Xiaoxu said firmly: I am Lin Daiyu, if I go to play other roles, the audience will say that Lin Daiyu will play other roles. This sentence seems a bit arrogant, but in the end, Wang Fulin ate the reassurance pill, and let Chen Xiaoxu play Lin Daiyu. It turns out that Chen Xiaoxu played Lin Daiyu very successfully.
