Newcomer Huang Yunti Ousts Scheduled Lead Just Before Shooting

A week prior to filming, former news correspondent Huang Yunti-replacing a newly-minted "post-90s" star-stunned the industry by securing the lead role. Her background reveals a history of global ventures with high-profile support.

Crew members praised her "exceptional stress tolerance" and "chameleon-like persona adaptability." Despite being a rookie, her acting matched veteran standards: she endured filming injuries (including a bone-exposed ankle wound from exploding glass) without complaint, worked without an assistant, and even aided the makeup team. "Journalism trained me," she said. "Entering society early honed my mental resilience."

This work ethic echoed her role in Taiwanese film Betel Nut Beauty, where she co-produced and acted while assisting crew daily.

Tears Seal the Deal: Director's Last-Minute Casting

Producer Shi Xinzhe revealed the pivotal factor: Huang's mastery of crying scenes. "She teared up naturally in seconds and controlled the flow perfectly," he said. Her performance and professionalism earned her a recommendation for the next project-potentially opposite a Golden Rooster Award-winning actor.
