As the evening wore on, the glow from the city's lights spilled through the windows of Rain Cafe, casting a warm, amber hue over the cozy interior. Anna and Director Smith had been deep in discussion for hours, going over the finer details of the project. They had covered everything from the character arc of Chen Mumu to the potential trajectory of the franchise, and Anna felt an invigorating mix of excitement and anticipation.
Daniel Smith, ever the gentleman, signaled the waiter to bring the check as their conversation naturally wound down. "You've given me a lot to think about, Anna," he said, leaning back in his chair with a satisfied smile. "I'm thrilled to have you on board. I truly believe Chen Mumu will be a standout character with you in the role."
Anna returned his smile, her eyes bright with a renewed sense of purpose. "I'm excited too, Daniel. I feel like this is the right move, and I can't wait to dive into the script."
