In 2010, aJapanese actress called Tuko Tanaka（田中裕子）actedCi Xi（慈禧）in TheFirmament of the Pleiades（《苍穹之昴》）. Someone said that she looks like Ci Xivery much and her acting was excellent. But others wondered that why we chose aJapanese actress to act our famous historical figure. Recently, it is reportedthat the Korean actress Song Kye Kyo（宋慧乔）will actSong Qingling（宋庆龄）in a film. Although it is said that Songhas denied the invitation, it still remain a mystery. So what’s your opinion onthat?

To write a good script is what the should but to make some gossip.Really Look down this kind of people.
