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.
