326 Chapter 326. Teacher

Hearing about Xiaohua’s tragic fate, the young Ding Shan started to cry. Director Bao Hua saw her crying and patiently said, “That’s it. You have to remember this feeling. You’re now a little flower. You have to let the audience see the little flower’s life. You have to let them see the little flower’s misfortune and pity. You must also let them see little flower’s courage and kindness.”

Director Bao Hua’s enlightenment allowed the young Ding Shan to find her best state. It was as if the goddess of inspiration had blessed her. Her performance in front of the camera was full of spirit, but there was no trace of a deliberately stiff performance.

After the TV series was aired, she became famous all over the country and became a well-known child star.

Memories of the past resurfaced in her heart, and Ding Shan was very emotional. She thought for a while and found a number she had not contacted in a long time. After hesitating for a while, she sent a message. “Teacher Bao Hua, it’s me, Ding Shan. Are you asleep now?”

!!

A few minutes later, Ding Shan’s phone rang. She immediately picked up the call.

Teacher Bao Hua’s kind and experienced voice could be heard. “Shanshan, I watched the variety show you were in today. You sang well.”

From the sound of it, Teacher Bao Hua did not seem to condemn Ding Shan’s behavior in participating in the variety show.

Ding Shan didn’t expect Teacher Bao Hua to watch ‘Idol Creation Camp’. She suddenly didn’t know what to do and asked nervously, “Teacher, why do you watch talent shows?”

“How can I not watch the variety show my little flower participates in? This is your first variety show after your comeback. At first, I was worried that you wouldn’t be in a good state, but I was overthinking it. You look like you’ve grown a lot, so I’m relieved.” Teacher Bao Hua’s voice was filled with a smile and gratification.

When she heard “My Xiaohua,” Ding Shan was instantly reminded of when teacher Bao Hua had taught her to memorize her lines word by word. After the scene in the rain ended, he even brought her a bowl of hot ginger soup. Ding Shan’s eyes instantly became wet.

“Teacher Baohua, I’m fine. I also want to say that I’m grateful to you for choosing me to play Xiaohua back then. I’m able to achieve what I have today all because of you. Without you, there wouldn’t be the Ding Shan I am today.” Ding Shan’s voice was a little choked.

Although she did not spend much time with Teacher Bao Hua, the happiest days in her previous life were when she was in the cast of “Little City Girl.”

Teacher Bao Hua doted on her like a granddaughter. Sometimes, he would take her to a nearby teahouse to listen to the show after filming. He would also often buy her some snacks that children liked to eat. She had never felt such care and warmth from the Ding family.

“I could tell that you were born to be an actress. You also brought the best actress to the audience, so don’t say thank you. You should be thanking yourself.”

After director Bao Hua finished, he sighed, “You were still a child back then, but your attitude towards learning was even more serious than an adult actor. The actress who played your aunt praised you for being a dedicated little actress. She wanted to throw you to the ground in that scene, but she was too nervous and didn’t pass this scene. You were thrown by her more than ten times, but you didn’t cry out in pain at all, nor did you cry out that you were tired. Even my heart ached when I saw it.”

These memories were already a little blurry. Ding Shan smiled embarrassedly and said to Bao Hua, “Teacher Bao Hua, after filming the variety show, I would like to come and see you. Are you still in Beijing?”

“Where can these old bones of mine run to? Just focus on recording your variety show. I’ll continue watching it. Oh, right, I’m preparing for a new drama next year. Come and look for me then. I’ll show you the script. There are a few roles that suit you. I’m thrilled that you’re still planning to stay in this industry. This industry is getting increasingly reckless, and they need down-to-earth and hardworking actors like you.” Teacher Bao Hua said emotionally.

When she heard Teacher Bao Hua’s words, Ding Shan’s heart started thumping. Teacher Bao Hua was going to film a new movie.

In today’s era, where popularity is booming, younger audience members might not be familiar with Teacher Bao Hua’s name. But in the entertainment industry, whenever Teacher Bao Hua was mentioned, he was a Big Shot.

There was once a movie king who had won two international awards. To act as the third male lead in Teacher Bao Hua’s movie, he had specially gone to Teacher Bao Hua’s house seven times.

Teacher Bao Hua was very accomplished among the third-generation directors in the country. Many famous fourth and fifth-generation young directors had received guidance and help from him.

Every time director Bao Hua filmed a new movie, more than a dozen top directors would personally step forward to help him promote it.
