The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Infinite Possibilities in the Future Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Infinite Possibilities in the Future The director somewhat regretted his fondness for speaking ironically, but seeing that the little girl wasn’t disheartened by it, and instead her eyes were filled with determination, he grew even fonder of her.

Who wouldn’t like a child who, despite having talent, humbly believes they have none and only thinks about working harder and harder?

There were too many kids who were arrogant and disrespectful towards veteran actors after gaining early fame, and most of them ended up harming themselves permanently.

He actually hoped that Little Taotie would always face the path of acting with the humblest attitude, knowing that effort is the true king, and heaven rewards the diligent.

Little Taotie originally didn’t have many scenes. After the shoot wrapped up, she didn’t leave but was kept behind by the director.

The director grabbed a small stool and had Little Taotie sit beside him.

Little Taotie sat obediently, not making any fuss, just staring with her big curious eyes at the camera ahead of her.

She silently absorbed knowledge, watching how the director instructed the actors during filming and observing each actor’s performance on the monitor, and so on.

The director didn’t expect that the little girl would sit beside him the whole day without crying or being disruptive, nor did she have the hyperactivity of other children who grow restless and want to play after sitting for a while.

“Is it boring sitting next to me?” the director asked.

Little Taotie tilted her head, “It’s really interesting!”

Hearing this unexpected answer, the director became intrigued and continued to ask, “How is it interesting?”

“You can see them inside this, you can judge whether their acting is good or bad, and you can also see what the actors are like usually, whether they need a prompter or something. I think… it’s really interesting!”

“Is it really interesting?”

“Yes, when they shoot from different angles, you can see a lot of subtle expressions at the same time…”

Listening to the girl’s endless chatter and looking into her sparkling eyes, the director thought to himself: She’s still young, she has limitless potential, and becoming a director might also be a good choice for her!

From that day on, the director kept Little Taotie by his side, having her sit on the small stool next to him every day until the entire movie wrapped up.

Cheng Guodong seemed to notice something and had a private chat with the director.

To his surprise, he learnt from the director that Little Taotie actually had the talent to be a director.

“She’s only six years old, she has an endless future ahead, and she can start as an actor, which will give her more authority later on. You should encourage her to learn drawing and get a sense of color. She also needs to study photography and videography.”

Most directors are good at drawing, with a strong sense of visuals and color, some can even work as lighting technicians or cinematographers — they are essentially all-rounders.

“I know, I will have her learn some fundamentals so that even if she wants to be a director in the future, she’ll have the confidence and ability to be competent.”

The director thought for a moment, then suddenly said, “In the future, when I’m filming, if she doesn’t have anything else to do, or it’s during the school break, she can come to my set.”

Cheng Guodong was astonished, then laughed lightly, “Are you planning to take her as your apprentice?”

The director shook his head, “That would put too much pressure on her, she’s just someone I’ve become familiar with, and she comes to the set to visit, I keep her around to keep me company, that’s all. I’m sixty this year, I’m actually considered an old man already, it’s not strange to keep this old man company, right?”

“You’re sixty? You look only in your forties.”

“Tsk! So Chairman Cheng likes to joke too!”

“Really.”

The director laughed heartily, calling him closer, “Let me tell you, an apple a day and a cup of tea, and you’ll live to a hundred!”
