In my opinion, the first is temperament. Chen Yao has an elite aura, quiet and fashionable. Tamia Liu looks like Mazu on Wall Street, so he is more suitable to play a good wife. But temperament is only one aspect. Sebrina can completely beat Tamia Liu, or because she has more acting skills. Different from ordinary TV series, the female executive played by Sebrina only shows the overbearing and powerful side, but it is very multifaceted, so it is particularly real.
Take Mingyu's dismissal of old ni, a company employee. When she ordered her subordinates to carry out the expulsion procedure, she was very domineering and aggressive, which made the audience see her strong side as a leader.
However, when she faced old ni's entreaties, she hid her strength and showed great tact and sophistication. Seeing this scene, the old driver seems to see a real China leader, who knows how to handle things very well, neither agreeing with each other nor pulling his face. Sebrina plays very well here.
Mingyu is another face when dealing with the top management of the company. In this scene, Mingyu disagreed with the company's decision to lay off Liu Qing, saying that she would challenge the company's supervision mechanism. This is in the general Mary Sue fake workplace drama, the hostess will definitely shout like carrying a big gun and start a positive contest with the other side.
But Mingyu didn't. Instead, she said an appropriate sentence: "I'm not rebelling, I'm changing." Suddenly adjusted the tense atmosphere, in the eyes of the old driver, this is the real performance of professionals facing this situation. Mingyu completely lost her edge in the face of Master Meng's reprimand, and was at a loss like a child who had done something wrong.
Therefore, the working woman played by Sebrina is particularly close to life. Facing different people, she has different attitudes and ways of doing things, and each attitude is very grounded, which makes people feel a sense of identity.
There is almost only one mode of Tamia Liu's performance in Ode to Joy, and that is to show how overbearing, intelligent and superior I am in all directions. As soon as Andy appeared in the play, it was just a neighborhood dispute. She made it look like a defense in an international court, and it was "You don't need to know who I am" and "If you have any objection, you can contact my lawyer". Such a scene may seem awesome at first glance, but if you think about it carefully, you will feel very forced.
So personally, I think Sebrina is more suitable for professional women.
