's best evaluation of an actor is that we only remember the role she played, but not her name.
Speaking of Yuan Qiongdan, as Hong Kong's iconic "golden supporting actor", many of her roles are still fresh in everyone's memory.
She can be the magnificent pomegranate sister in "Tang Bohu Dianqiuxiang", or the quarrel master brothel madam in "Nine Pins of Sesame Official". She can be funny at all times.
She can also be Yin Shiniang, a mother who is always framed for her family and son in the TV series "Feng Shen Bang". The drama

Although she is a bit gentle and graceful in her ancient costume, but in the TVB where she is competing for beauty, the relatively plain-looking Yuan Qiongdan has been tepid, which is also reasonable. In the early days of
, she mostly played the role of jade girl, and she also served as the second female post, but unfortunately she has not been famous. In this way, the position of the heroine is getting farther and farther, and gradually she can only play the role of a concubine or even passerby.

Yuan Qiongdan used all the expressions imaginable in this life to "deliver", but Zhou Xingchi was not satisfied with a single one, and kept asking for a repeat. The average person might have collapsed on the spot.
But Yuan Qiongdan is a strong person, she also scratched her head and tried indomitably.

Zhou Xingchi also joked afterwards, saying how she could steal the show like this.
