"Today's TV screens are full of cute girls who prefer to be fair ladies," says Zhang.
"And, there are many heroines. But, few Chinese actresses dare to endanger their images and try roles like this."
Zhang says she was taking a risk when she took the role.
"After reading the script, most people would hesitate because the story is very unorthodox," says Zhang.
"But I could understand its logic immediately. It got my imagination all fired up."
So, perhaps, her success is not accidental.
