The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 1748: Chapter 1748: Isn’t Directing Just a Movie? How Hard Could It Be?

"Seriously, why does Yorickson have to bail on me when I need him?" Jian Dan raised a hand to her forehead.

"I’ve thought of every possible solution already, and now I really don’t know what to do?

Should I talk to my uncle?" Qin Rou tentatively looked at Jian Dan and spoke softly.

"No way! That would make Uncle think I’m useless, wouldn’t it?"

"Then what do you propose? Maybe discuss it with Yuanyuan to see if she can come back and help?"

"Also not possible! Ever since Yuanyuan had the baby, her mood hasn’t been great. The other day when I saw her, she didn’t say much; she just kept crying. So we shouldn’t disturb her now!"

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"Isn’t it just directing a film? How hard can it be? I’ll do it!" Jian Dan pondered for a while before speaking abruptly.

"What? Jian, are you serious?" Qin Rou looked a bit incredulous, confirming what she heard.

"Of course I’m serious. There’s no better plan right now anyway. Besides, haven’t we been watching Yuanyuan direct all this time? And Yorickson too! We must have picked up something, right? Plus, we already have a script ready. Just follow it and shoot, isn’t that it?"

"Jian, you don’t really think being a director is that easy, do you?" Qin Rou looked at Jian Dan with a bit of helplessness.

If it were really that simple, she wouldn’t be so worried.

"The director is the soul of a movie. Each director has a different understanding of the characters. Even if you give the same movie to different directors, it presents differently, you understand?"

"I know what you mean.

You’re trying to tell me that the director is the most important part of a movie. They need to incorporate some of their inner thoughts into the film, and they must see the big picture. They’re different from actors; actors need to understand themselves, but directors need to understand all the characters in the movie."

"Jian, have you really decided?" After listening to Jian Dan, Qin Rou thought for a moment before speaking.

"How will I know if I don’t try? All I know is I don’t want to give up so easily!"

"Alright! Then let’s take a gamble!" Qin Rou looked at Jian Dan firmly and reached out her hand.

Jian Dan smiled, looked at Qin Rou, and solemnly placed her hand on hers.

"Mom, we believe you can do it!" At that moment, the four little ones, who had disappeared somewhere, suddenly reappeared, surrounding Jian Dan.

"Where did you four run off to just now? And how come you suddenly show up now?" Jian Dan patted their heads and asked.

"We... uh, we were just bored and wandered around." Jian Xiaokai replied casually.

"Just wandered around? Why do I feel like the meaning behind those words isn’t what I understand it to be?"

"Mom, you’re overthinking it. ’Just wandered around’ means exactly that, what else could it mean!" Qian Lele hugged Jian Dan’s leg and said in a spoiled tone.

Jian Dan still felt something was odd, and when she met Qin Rou’s gaze, Qin Rou just shrugged with a smile without saying a word.

As she was about to speak again, her phone suddenly rang.

"Hello, Uncle?"

"Come down!"

After hanging up, Jian Dan hurried downstairs.

"Uncle, it’s only midday; why are you here to pick me up?"

"To take you out for lunch!"

"Really? You came all this way just for a lunch with me?"

"Is it far? I don’t think so! Get in! I’ll take you all to eat!"

Chu Liyuan opened the car door and looked at Jian Dan in a gentle manner.
