We obtained the following results: for anyone strategy of CPA,if the average extra income of manager with the fraud strategy is negative,the behavior choices of the corresponding game players under two selection modes have the same trend,otherwise there exists a difference. In addition,from the evolutionary trend,collusionphenomenon will appear in the manager selection mode,but not in the shareholder selection mode.
