There was actually no particular reason why Instructor Liu chose Su Yang. It was purely because Su Yang was one of the few actors whose names he could remember.
Before the training began, Wu Feng had especially exchanged a few words with him. He told Instructor Liu that Su Yang was going to film the close-up of the tank and had asked Instructor Liu to take care of him. Hence, Instructor Liu had a deep impression of him.
Furthermore, Su Yang was the first person in the line. Therefore, since he had the intention to simply pick someone, he might as well start with the first actor. 'None of them will be able to do it anyway!'
Su Yang was still very professional to his work, he would behave exactly like an actor in the production crew whenever he was there. Therefore, he stomped his foot and raised his head as he shouted, "Sir, yes sir!"
Instructor Liu pointed at the tank simulator. "Come here and try it!"
Su Yang replied, "Yes sir!"
