Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Shooting a Children’s Clothing Advertisement Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Shooting a Children’s Clothing Advertisement Cheng Guodong arranged ten jobs for Little Taotie, one of which was acting with Gu Yixing and it had been completed.
There were also two variety shows that hadn’t started shooting yet.
The next seven were all advertisements.
The first advertisement was for a designer children’s clothing line, where the ad was presented as a dress-up game, and Little Taotie was the adorable doll being dressed up.
Little Taotie put on cool clothes, flicking his dreadlocks one by one, strutting with an air of nonrecognition.
The director shouted, “Fiercer! Look fiercer!”
“Awoo!” Little Taotie made a “fierce tiger” pouncing gesture toward the camera.
Struck by his beauty, the director yelled, “Perfect! That’s a wrap! Change outfits!”
Little Taotie was taken away by a gentle sister, dressed up like a rag doll.
This time, he became Her Royal Highness the Little Princess.
Little Taotie held a pearl purse in his hand, walking slowly, pausing with each step.
Although his pace was slow, his upper body was steady, with no bending or slouching; his posture was perfect.
Before turning around, Little Taotie winked at the camera, playfulness mixed with slyness.
The director frantically called out, “Cute! So cute! That’s a wrap, wrap, wrap…”
Little Taotie changed into twenty outfits that morning and was completely exhausted; he fell asleep in the resting room.
Cheng Guodong covered him with a blanket and sighed softly.
Originally, he didn’t want his sister to get tired, but she told him she was willing to take any job that would make people like and adore her; she wanted to be liked by more people.
Although this advertisement was tiring, unlike others that were finished in a moment, the different styles would bring her a variety of fans.
Actually, there was a little trick to it: by appearing in various styles, popular directors would see her in certain outfits and feel that Little Taotie was suitable for their films.
Although Little Taotie had no shortage of offers, there were too few acting opportunities; most of the interest came from advertisers.
Shooting too many ads wouldn’t be much help for her future; she still needed a signature role.
The children’s clothing company seemed to be in a hurry, wanting to make use of Little Taotie’s popularity to quickly launch their ad campaign.
The advertisement was shot in the morning, edited in the afternoon, and then submitted for review.
After going through several checks, it took only two days.
Within a total of three days, the advertisement hit the prime time slot, during the commercial break of a very popular TV drama.
When Cheng Guodong found out, he couldn’t help but give the children’s clothing company a thumbs up. Investing in a prime time TV drama was the only way to earn the right to advertise, and the speed at which they did it was astonishing–just three days to get everything sorted.
Cheng Guodong didn’t wait for the drama to air to watch the advertisement; instead, he searched online and found a short video someone had recorded and posted on D Sound.
The little girl wore the trendiest clothes and started breakdancing, clearly a beginner, but she was surprisingly calm and serious in her expression.
When the little girl changed outfits, she switched to a sailor suit, twirling around as if she was transforming like a magical girl!
With a baby voice, the little girl even shouted, “In the name of the moon, I will punish you!”
Then the clothes changed again, this time to a little queen with a tiara, every step she took radiated immense presence.
A director, who was struggling to find a child actor to play the childhood version of the female lead in his drama, lit up upon seeing Little Taotie, especially fitting for playing the childhood version of the queen.
“Her, I want her to play the young version of the female lead!”
The assistant looked at the TV advertisement the director was pointing to and saw the adorable smile of Little Taotie, he sighed, “That’s going to be tough!”
