Before it was released，moviegoers speculated(推测)on just what this“pure beauty”could be.Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu—a character so innocent that she believed simply lying on the same bed with a man would make her pregnant.
It was 18yearold Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd.According to Zhang，Zhou had“eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside”．Born of an ordinary worker's family，the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.
While some teenagers consider such“pure beauty”illusory(虚幻的)，others believe that it speaks of something soulful.
Purity is all about the innocence that shines through from within，thinks 16yearold Tan Mengxi of Nanjing.
“Being pure can be simple，not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced.However，it doesn't mean an ignorant or naive(天真的)person.So，a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently.This purity doesn't pass with time，”she said.
