Huayu: Are you even sitting up straight? You're going to be the director?

Chapter 23: Jing Tian completely bewildered.
Ning Hao stared wide-eyed at him.

His face showed terror.

He had previously joked that Jing Tian's music video could apply for a film license to see if it could be released in theaters.

He thought he was good enough at flattery.

I saw Cao Zhong today.

Only then did I realize that there are people more capable than me, and heavens beyond heavens.

There's always someone better at licking!
Cao Zhong's words were logically sound, sincere, and his gaze warm.

Right before Ning Hao's eyes, he coaxed an innocent girl into becoming an embryo.

"Could it be that she's fallen in love with him right away?"

Ning Hao was bewildered!

Jing Tian's round eyes were filled with understanding, approval, and joy for Cao Zhong.

It was their first time meeting, but Ning Hao could see the trust in Jing Tian's eyes for Cao Zhong that even surpassed her trust in him.

Ning Hao glanced at Cao Zhong beside him and gasped in shock.

Is this really the junior student the teacher described as having too much talent?

What about natural beauty, what about delicate and lively charm?
What does it matter if you can't find the camera? Won't the camera find you?
What? I'm just a director, and I've recently signed a few actresses, but none of them are as good as you.

Furthermore, these statements are half-truths mixed with personal agendas. The real point is that others are competing for resources, while you are creating them. If you come across a script you like, just act it out.

There was nothing that made Jing Tian worry that this was disrespect for art, but rather nothing that showed him any respect.

Even Ning Hao was unsure whether these words were entirely sincere.

"The most crucial thing is, you two have only known each other for ten minutes!"

……

"I'm embarrassed by what you said, senior."

Smoothing his hair, Jing Tian couldn't resist Cao Zhong's sweet talk.

Who can stand this?

Cao Zhong's eyes were sincere, full of appreciation and recognition for her. What Jing Tian saw was the other party's earnest sincerity. The script he wrote for her now seemed to be very suitable for her.

Because he wasn't sure if he would be in front of the camera, he even designed a zombie daughter role specifically for himself, who was learning to dance.

This is the kind of director she really needs.

He is also the director who truly understands her. Compared to Cao Zhong, the director Li Bingliang, who was chosen by Uncle Lu Zheng to direct "Anaconda" for her, was simply perfunctory, utterly perfunctory, and completely perfunctory.

Although "My Zombie Daughter" hasn't been filmed yet, Jing Tian has already felt the character's appeal, which is much better than "Anaconda".

The more Jing Tian looked at Cao Zhong, the more pleasing he became.

"Don't be embarrassed, I never lie," Cao Zhong said earnestly.

"As the creator of this script, I am well aware of the power of this character, as long as a suitable director is found to direct it for you."

I can say with absolute certainty that you could even become the owner of the "Nation's Daughter" label in the entertainment industry.
This symbol is the best choice for you to break out of your niche and increase your fame.

"If you don't like this character, then there must be something wrong with my writing. But for the script, it's a pity."

Cao Zhong sighed again. He lowered his head slightly, his eyes showing three parts regret, three parts sigh, and four parts remorse.

Jing Tian glanced at the script, then at Cao Zhong, and gently rubbed his cheek with his index finger.

She pursed her lips slightly, as if deep in thought.

However, the way her eyes darted around and the slight upturn of her lips revealed the turmoil in her heart at that moment.

In the end, her heart still leaned towards Cao Zhong.
"How could that be? How could I not like this character?"

Although this character was made to look ugly, he was cute, memorable, and a perfect fit for me.

I know I can't act right now, but when I'm a zombie, I can act however I want.

I know that this character was created specifically for me.

I could feel your sincerity towards me.
Your sincerity has enveloped me and filled me completely.

Jing Tian waved his hands repeatedly, afraid that Cao Zhong would belittle himself.

"Thank you for allowing me to be a good actor."

Ning Hao was shocked!

He found it hard to describe his feelings at that moment, but for some reason, he felt that Cao Zhong was quite something.
Cao Zhong picked up his coffee and clinked glasses with Jing Tian.
"Thank you, Jing Tian. I'm so glad you like this character."

Cao Zhongdao,
"Actually, we can even boldly choose famous Hong Kong stars like Jackie Chan and Aaron Kwok for the role of the father. If you can play the role, it will greatly increase your popularity."

If mainland male stars were cast, such as Xu Zheng or Huang Bo, I believe this film could even make a fortune.

When I was writing the script, I had already created your character.

Jing Tian pondered the movie roles for a moment, and when she thought of famous Hong Kong stars like Jackie Chan and Aaron Kwok playing her father, her face instantly lit up with hope.

Then she thought about casting Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and others in the film, and her heart stirred again. She also hoped that the film she made would make money.

Cao Zhong's choices all struck right at her heart.

This made her even more certain that Cao Zhong was truly worried sick about her.

Jing Tian asked, "Then, senior brother, would you be able to direct this?"

Cao Zhongdao said, "To be honest, I have just started a film project, which I will direct. I have selected Zu Feng, Mei Ting, Hai Qing, Xu Zheng and others as the lead actors. However, Han Sanpin, the general manager of China Film Group, has already gone to great lengths to get it approved and has been very supportive. But the investment in this film is not small. Even if China Film Group can give me a few million yuan, I am still worried that it will not be enough. That is why I am thinking of selling the script to ensure a continuous flow of funds."

He said with a hint of regret, "I really want to direct this film, but I just don't have the time. But I'm willing to be your consultant forever."

Jing Tian nodded: "I see."

She got it.

Cao Zhong is really hardworking. He's a senior in the acting department, and he even took on the challenge of directing his own film.
Moreover, he even received support from General Manager Han of China Film Group, and he is currently working hard to raise funds so that his film can be filmed smoothly.

During such a difficult time, Senior Brother Cao Zhong even designed a role specifically for himself. What a great respect that is!
What kind of support and importance is this?

Jing Tian looked at Ning Hao. She knew that all of this must have something to do with Ning Hao. As for Cao Zhong, she had never met him before, yet he had done her such a great favor, even choosing a role for her to play her father and setting up a path for her to become a "national daughter" to increase her popularity.

How could she watch her senior brother have nowhere to go?
Jing Tian said, "Senior brother, to be honest, I do have some advisory power. I can talk to my Uncle Lu Zheng about buying your script at the most reasonable market price. I will also hire you as a consultant for my film, and I will give you a sum of money as well. What do you think?"

Ning Hao's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness; he could only smile bitterly at Cao Zhong.

Ning Hao looked at Jing Tian with surprise.
Is this girl completely bewildered by being coaxed?
