Dad Academy

2331. Dreams come true

After Li Xiaoxiao agreed to Zhang Tan, he returned home that night and told Lao Li about the matter.

Lao Li didn't say anything, just let her make her own decision, but she felt more at ease.

Two days later, after asking Li Xiaoxiao to hand over her work at the law firm, Zhang Tan personally took her to the Little Red Horse Film and Television Company and formally introduced her to the company's senior management.

Although everyone has known her for a long time, as a partner, not as the current legal director of the company, she still needs to have the sense of ceremony.

After Zhang Tan took her around, he sent her to her own office, and then he left.

The movie "The Matrix" is currently being filmed, and one-third of the way has been completed.

The speed is very, very fast. You must know that this is not the plot of a movie, but the plot of the "The Matrix 1/2/3" series. It is shot in one go, and the special effects will be slowly added later.

Many high-cost special effects movies are shot this way to save money to the greatest extent. For example, the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "Avatar" were shot four sequels at once.

Another advantage of one-time shooting is that it can cope with unpredictable changes.

For example, if "The Matrix 1" becomes popular, the salary of the leading actor will definitely rise, and even the lion's mouth will open up. Will the film studio be satisfied? If it is satisfied, it will be a big loss. If it is not satisfied, it will be a heavy loss and will have a great impact on subsequent works.

There are many examples of this type, such as "Iron Man" that Zhang Tan knew in his previous life.

When filming the first "Iron Man", Robert Downey Jr.'s salary was only 500,000 US dollars. Later, when filming "Iron Man 2", his salary had reached 10 million US dollars. After filming "Iron Man 3", his salary soared to 50 million US dollars. Not only that, during this period, he also filmed "The Avengers". In "Avengers 2", his salary soared to a terrifying US$80 million, and in "Avengers 4" he received US$20 million. A basic salary, but he participated in the profit sharing. According to the ratio of 8%, he received about 75 million US dollars.

It was precisely because his salary was too exaggerated that the director and screenwriter finally let his character die in "Avengers 4".

Now, that is to say, the first part of "The Matrix" has basically been filmed. Zhang Tan has just completed the acquisition of Industrial Jack, and the post-production is immediately handed over to them for advancement.

Originally, the special effects work for the "The Matrix" project was outsourced to Industrial Jack, but now that we have become a brother company, the work connection will definitely be smoother.

Zhang Tan took this opportunity to sort out the current Little Red Horse project.

Currently being filmed include "The Matrix" trilogy, "Deadly ID" and "Northeast Police Story". The latter is a low-budget, hot-blooded police drama based on a script purchased from the market.

At the same time, after the success of the first part of "Zhu Xian", the second part is about to start filming.

In addition, there is a low-budget romance film, "Love Is Spreading," which was also a script acquired from the market. After being polished by the company's screenwriters, the project was recently approved and is also in preparation.

Zhang Tan found the person in charge of finance, and after learning about the company's accounts in detail, he decided to start a few more projects if he had the strength and need.

He had some ideas in his mind, and after convening the screenwriters to discuss it, he decided to adapt Xu Qizhe's passionate comic book "The Legend of Foreigners" into a live-action movie.

The background of this comic is the Ming Dynasty, and it is a pure and passionate action movie.

In addition, Zhang Tan wrote an outline of the script himself and gave it to Jiang Rong and others to expand it into a script.

Within a few days, they handed the thick script to his desk, with the title he had decided on before, called "Xiu Chun Dao".

It is also set in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also a pure and passionate action film. It can be regarded as a companion piece to "The Legend of Foreigners".

Because the outline of the plot was written by Zhang Tan based on the one he had seen in his previous life, but the specific plot was thought up by Jiang Rong and others, so the "Xiu Chun Knife" in Zhang Tan's hands is similar to the one he has seen before. , he felt it was more exciting and a lot of flaws had been eliminated.

After reading it, he felt that there was no big problem, but he just told them to pay attention to the details, such as the costumes, weapons, etc. of the Ming Dynasty, so that they should be restored to the highest degree possible.

The Little Red Horse Film and Television Company was running efficiently and was busy but not chaotic. Zhang Tan stayed at the company for a few days and saw that he had nothing to do without him, so he went less frequently.

It’s May 1st Labor Day soon. As Labor Day, we must work.

Originally, children would not remember such a holiday, but who allowed the Little Red Horse Academy to have a super labor-loving Miss Zhao.

Miss Zhao began to popularize the meaning of Labor Day one week before the holiday, calling on everyone to work together, help mom and dad with work, and develop the habit of loving labor.

"I just want to play and don't want to work." My best friend made a toot, which can be regarded as a miracle.

So even people like Liuliu know that Labor Day will be celebrated in a few days, and it will be a holiday.

Zhang Tan also took the opportunity to encourage Xiaobai to cheer up and work, and they decided to do a general cleaning of the house that day.

Having fun alone is not as good as having fun together. On that day, Xiaobai called Xiaobai and Xi'er, and the three of them helped the adults work together. They cleaned the house and took the sheets, clothes, and shoes to the yard to dry.

Malanhua also asked them to go to the store to help, but none of the three were willing to go, so they all made good excuses.

Zhang Tan knew that Ma Lanhua actually just wanted to use them, rather than that there was really no unwinnable work in the store, so he did not take the three of them, but took them to participate in a charity event organized by Little Red Horse Comics Company. Over there I went to pick up trash on a mountain in the suburbs.

I really responded to Xiao Xiaobai's song "Picking up garbage together". This is a dream that has become a reality.

Xiao Xiaobai was confused, and kept nagging at Zhang Tan's feet along the way: "I just sing, I just sing, it's too much, I'm still a little friend..."

Zhang Tan glanced at her and wondered why this little kid was more nagging than Xi'er?

Zhang Tan said: "It is not our purpose to pick up trash. Our purpose is to climb mountains, see the scenery, and pick up trash along the way."

When Xiao Xiaobai heard this, his expression improved a lot, and he said whimsically: "Then can I sit in the basket?"

She pointed to a bamboo basket carried by Xu Qizhe in front of her. It was used to hold garbage. Now Xiao Xiaobai took a fancy to it. She wanted to sit in it and recruit Xu Qizhe as a free labor force. She would get something for nothing and just look at the scenery. Picking up trash is such a beautiful idea.

There was no need for Zhang Tan to answer her, Xi'er had already spoken.

"This is cool Brother Zhe, please call Brother Zhe."

Xiao Xiaobai didn't expect that the silent person carrying a basket was actually a brother. Fortunately, she had a sweet mouth and immediately shouted: "Brother Zhe."

The cool Brother Zhe turned back and smiled at her, not knowing how to answer this.

Thanks to everyone's love, they all call him Brother Zhe, but in fact he is a relatively introverted person and cannot be the big brother.

"Hello." Xu Qizhe could only respond.

Xiao Xiaobai wanted to say something else, but Xi'er helped Xu Qizhe and said, "You can't sit in Brother Zhe's basket. Brother Zhe's basket has to contain garbage. Are you a little garbage?"

Of course Xiao Xiaobai was not, even she would not admit it. She was not stupid, so she shook her head quickly.

"Then don't sit down. You have to be strong and pick up garbage with us." Xi'er encouraged.

Xiaobai also interjected: "Xiaobai, if you really don't want to pick up garbage, then you can sing for everyone, just sing your "Pick Up Garbage Together" to cheer everyone up."

Xiao Xiaobai weighed the two and found that she would rather sing "Pick Up Trash Together" than actually pick up trash.

Then the sound of milky singing sounded on the mountain path, which was quite appropriate for the occasion.
