245 Chapter 245. Youthful Energy
While helping Ding Shan with her makeup, Zhenzhen continued, “Aren’t many people like this in the entertainment industry? If we wanted to compete with them, we couldn’t live. We’re all doing this for work. Otherwise, who would want to see her face so early in the morning?”
Xiao Zhao frowned. “That’s right. No one liked to be ordered around by her. However, this is not normal in Zhenzhen, no matter how many people like Chen Tong there are. This is wrong, a deformed phenomenon, and it will be over sooner or later!”
Ding Shan raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Zhao happily. “Xiao Zhao, you’ve grown up. You’re very aware of what you’re saying!”
Xiao Zhao chuckled. “Following my sister Shan, I must improve my awareness!”
Zhenzhen smiled. “Yes, we can’t ignore the bad side of this phenomenon just because everyone is like this. We’re almost numb to it. I’m afraid I’ll become muddleheaded one day and have my dignity trampled on.”
Ding Shan’s lips curled up, and after a long time, she said, “The world isn’t black or white, so there’s no absolute right or wrong in many things. However, there’s one thing that I’ve always believed in, and that is ‘karma.’ Whatever causes you to plant, you’ll get the same result. Those who trample on dignity will be trampled on sooner or later.”
Just as Ding Shan finished speaking, the sound of Chen Tong throwing things and scolding came from outside. Her manager was also trying to persuade her in a kind tone. She could faintly hear her say, “Little ancestor, don’t throw it! Don’t be angry! Can’t you change to another set? So many people are watching! Don’t also mess around with the filming!”
Chen Tong’s voice was sharp. “What are you looking at? Delete all of them! I’ll see who dares to broadcast it. I want those sets of clothes! These things are so ugly; who would want to wear them? Is this how you guys take care of me? You are all good for nothing! Idiots!” From her tone, it was as if everyone had let her down and had to give their lives for her.
The director of photography who was following her also ignored her. He stood silently at the side, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible, but the machine in his hand did not stop shooting.
The one who paid him was President Yin, and his job was to record the artistes’ daily lives. As for whether he wanted to release them or not was the decision of the judging director and President Yin. He had already been here for half an hour listening to her make a scene, and it was already annoying enough. Who would still care if she allowed them to film or not?
Chen Tong’s filming director had a terrible impression of her. He didn’t care if she looked good on camera or not. He just casually positioned the camera and only recorded Chen Xi in it.
After all, Chen Tong didn’t allow him to photograph her now. It would be terrible if she got excited and came over to smash the camera. If he was hidden, at least he could finish the work. As for whether she looked good or not or if there was a wrong angle, he couldn’t care less.
In contrast, Ding Shan’s director was doing his best.
The camera perfectly recorded the morning after Ding Shan woke up, from a plain-faced girl full of energy to a delicate female artiste.
Zhenzhen also put on youthful and energetic makeup to match Ding Shan’s outfit. Apart from painting Ding Shan’s eyes big and round, she also emphasized the blush. Her seaweed-like long hair was slightly curled and tied into a high ponytail. Some naughty strands of hair were left on her forehead, making her look more natural.
Ding Shan blinked, her eyes bright. When she turned her head, her ponytail fluttered in the air, and her hair exuded a strong sense of youth. She looked like a female university student, but there was also a sense of calmness and wisdom that female students did not have. The two unique auras mixed, making Ding Shan look like an alluring apple, white with a tinge of red, full and juicy.
When Xiao Zhao witnessed the entire process of Ding Shan’s dressing, she felt that it was pleasing to the eye and her mood improved. “Sister Shan, if you go to train those trainees now, they might be confused and think that you are a little girl who came out of nowhere.”
Ding Shan glared at Xiao Zhao. “Don’t talk nonsense. I want to dress more casually and comfortably and, at the same time, close the distance between us. But if there’s no distance between us, I won’t be able to convince the public.”
After saying that, she thought for a moment, then found a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and put them on. She instantly lost some of her student-like aura and felt more distant.
Zhenzhen put a pair of golden earrings on Ding Shan and said with a smile, “Other female artistes all try to look younger, but sister Shan has to look more mature. It’s frustrating to compare!”
