Man From the 20th Century Chapter 60

Zhang Huitong's face is deceptive. She looks very gentle and seems to be very patient.

If you work with him for a while, you will know that he is a very impatient person. While the set design is still moving forward with difficulty, Zhang Huitong has already started casting in a big way.

His requirements are very strict. Acting skills are of course the most basic bottom line. In addition, the image of the actor must fit that era - most importantly, he needs the actor to be able to speak an authentic dialect.

Ryan Jin just wrote it casually, but Zhang Huitong took it as a plan and executed it thoroughly. The actors were required to speak either Nanjing dialect or Ningbo dialect according to their respective roles.

Director Zhang considered it very carefully. Many of the families of Kuomintang officers and politicians were from Ningbo, which is also mentioned in Ryan Jin's script. As for the servants, they were designed to have accents from northern Jiangsu or southern Jiangsu according to their different personalities.
