Dad Academy

Chapter 844 Silly (22)

Late at night, the lively little red horse gradually fell into silence, and the adults picked up the children one after another. At this time, the mood of Xiaoliu teachers was particularly quiet, filled with a kind of warm emotion, lingering Don't go.

Tan Jiner started to work the evening shift again during this period and had to work until 11 o'clock in the evening.

Xi'er's little bed was opened again, but she stayed there less often. Most of the time, she was invited to play at home by Xiao Bai, and then she could take the opportunity to stay up.

Xi'er also spent this night at Zhang Tan's house, until Tan Jin'er came back with her tired body and picked up Xi'er from home.

Xi'er had fallen asleep, Zhang Tan took her out and handed her to Tan Jin'er.

"Already asleep, be careful."

Tan Jin'er carefully took Xi'er, thanked Zhang Tan, and hurried home. Suddenly she felt something strange behind her, and saw Zhang Tan following him out.

Zhang Tan: "You can't ride with Xi'er in your arms, so I'll give it to you."

Tan Jin'er thought about it, so she didn't refuse. She was already very familiar with Boss Zhang and had troubled him a lot.

Zhang Tan pushed the little electric donkey, and Tan Jin'er held Xi'er in her arms as they walked home together in a quiet alley.

At first, the two of them were chatting all the way, almost waking Xi'er up, and then they stopped at the same time. There was only the sound of footsteps on the gravel road around them. The moonlight was like water, making the reflections of the two of them and the car long. Cats and dogs were there. They were running around in the alley, making lazy noises.

"Thank you, Boss Zhang. We are home. You should go to bed early." Tan Jin'er thanked him.

Zhang Tan waved his hand and returned, looking up at Bai Jianping's residence. The lights were on, so he must be watching the evening news again.

The next day, after Zhang Tan sent Xiaobai to kindergarten, he came to the headquarters of Kuxun Video.

"Is Mr. Ku here?" he asked Ku Cheng's secretary.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Ku is waiting for you, please go in directly."

Zhang Tan nodded, knocked on the office door, and heard a voice asking him to come in.

Ku Cheng was watering the flowers and plants in the office. When he saw it was him, he smiled and said, "Sit down first. If you want to drink tea, make it yourself. There is also coffee. Feel free. I'll finish watering these flowers and plants first."

Zhang Tan looked at his flowers and plants and said, "They are all growing very well. Mr. Ku takes good care of them."

"I don't have any other hobbies, that's all." He said and asked, "I didn't expect you to write the script so quickly. I thought I wouldn't see it until at least next week."

Zhang Tan had made an appointment with him to discuss the script today.

"The things you told us must take into account both efficiency and quality."

Kucheng laughed.

Suddenly he heard Zhang Tan say: "This pot of Clivia is of the highest quality."

She turned to look at him in surprise, "Do you know this pot of Clivia?"

"This is a yellow garden. It looks like it's about to bloom. It's rare." Zhang Tan doesn't grow flowers himself, but his aunt Qin Huifang does.

This topic hit Kucheng's weakness. He chatted with Zhang Tan enthusiastically about his experience in growing flowers, and almost forgot about the real thing. It was only after Zhang Tan reminded him that he remembered, and the conversation got back on track.

He put down the kettle and sat with Zhang Tan on the sofa set in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He took the script from Zhang Tan and listened to his introduction: "The new drama is called "My Love from the Star" and it is a romance film. Fantasy factors..."

Following Zhang Tan's introduction, Ku Cheng was also quickly browsing the script.

It's not actually a script, just a synopsis and outline of the story.

Zhang Tan also made the detailed outline, but did not give it to Ku Cheng. He would not care about the detailed outline. That is what the review team needs to know when setting up a project. The boss only needs to understand the direction and overview.

"Interesting~~" Ku Cheng finished listening and read some clips repeatedly, "The male protagonist comes from the Ming Dynasty 400 years ago, time travel! This is popular now. My son is particularly obsessed with it and often reads this kind of online novel. .”

Zhang Tan smiled and said, "Yes, our show is aimed at young people. Whatever they like and watch, we will film it."

Kucheng said: "You have a better grasp of the market than we do. This story is quite interesting. I agree to continue to move forward."

Zhang Tan was not surprised, "Then I will prepare the project plan. When will it be approved by the meeting?"

Kucheng said: "There will be a board of directors meeting on the 15th of this month. Let's try to get the project approved by that time, otherwise we will have to wait until next month."

"good."

Ku Cheng asked again: "By the way, how much do you estimate it will cost?"

Zhang Tan raised three fingers, and Ku Cheng said, "Thirty million?"

Urban dramas cost less than costume dramas.

Zhang Tan shook his head and said, "It's 300 million."

Ku Cheng swallowed and said in surprise: "Good guy! 300 million! An urban drama costs 300 million? Where did you spend it?"

Zhang Tan took out a piece of paper and handed it to him: "The main expenses are on it."

"You came prepared." Ku Cheng said, browsing the fee details, and shouted at the first glance: "What?! The actor's fee is 80 million??? My boss Zhang! Who are you going to hire?"

Zhang Tan said: "The heroine in the play is set to be a famous celebrity in the entertainment industry, a goddess-like existence, so in reality, the actress to be hired should also have this identity."

Ku Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Good guy, I call you good guy, you really dare to think about an actress who is like a national goddess, then Su Lan is not good enough, right?"

Zhang Tan was startled, then came to his senses and said, "Su Lan is a young actress, so it's okay, but it's not the best choice."

Ku Cheng joked: "Then please Xu Biling."

Who knew that Zhang Tan nodded decisively and said, "Okay, I'm thinking of her too."

Ku Cheng was stunned. Seeing that Zhang Tan didn't look like he was joking, he quickly said, "No, you really want to invite her? Can you stop with the 80 million? Her appearance fee must be at least this amount, and there are so many others. For actors, 80 million is definitely not enough."

He stretched out his palm to indicate the number.

Zhang Tan: "I know, 80 million is just a rough calculation by me. I need to check it carefully later."

Kucheng exhaled, "Don't do this, it's not good for my heart to play like this."

The first TV series invested 300 million yuan, and just hiring an actor cost 50 million yuan. If it fails and fails to meet expectations, he will cry to death.

"Not to mention the cost, we can't hire Xu Biling alone. They don't make TV series! What's more, TV series like ours are not going to be broadcast on Star TV but are broadcast online. People don't care about it and they won't come to film it."

Zhang Tan said: "You don't have to worry about this. There is always a way to hire her. Moreover, 50 million is just a rumor. As far as I know, no one has such a high performance fee."

The two chatted for a long time, and Ku Cheng was finally convinced by Zhang Tan and decided to give him a try.

Ku Cheng looked at the time and said, "Look, originally you only made an appointment with me for half an hour, but now it's been two hours, and my other schedule has been delayed."

During this period, the secretary came in three times to remind him that it was time to go to the next trip.

Zhang Tan smiled and said: "Thank you Mr. Ku for your support. I will ensure the quality of the TV series."

"I'm afraid to see you now." Ku Cheng hurriedly went out to prepare for the meeting. Zhang Tan followed him out and returned to his office at Kuxun Video Headquarters, where he polished the script until about four o'clock in the afternoon. He left, drove directly to the kindergarten, and picked up Xiaobai.

Tan Jin'er also came to pick up Xi'er. She was in a hurry and her feet were not touching the ground because of her busy work. She asked for leave to pick up Xi'er from school.

Zhang Tan simply asked her to go back to work, and Xi'er came to pick her up. "Let Xi'er stay with Xiao Bai. They happen to have playmates, so you don't have to be in such a hurry. Go back quickly and go to work peacefully."

Tan Jin'er thanked her repeatedly and saw Xi'er and Xiaobai Xiaomi coming out together, so she told Xi'er to go home with Xiaobai.

"Bye, sister~~bye~~~Have you eaten? Do you know that you have to eat three bowls of rice?" Xi'er asked with concern.

Tan Jin'er got on the electric donkey and said before leaving: "You want three bowls of rice! You owe me eight bowls of rice. The more you owe me, the more you owe me. You are so skinny that you don't gain any flesh."

Xi'er watched her sister get on the electric donkey and ride away. She snorted and told Zhang Tan arrogantly that she didn't eat meat. She wouldn't be cute if she looked like a durian.

Among the group of girlfriends who only want to play and don’t want to work, this little guy is the skinniest.

Zhang Tan said: "We adults all think that Liliu is very cute and fat. How lucky he is."

"hiahiahia~~~"

I don't know which part of Xi'er's laughter sutra was touched. She leaned forward and backward with laughter, and pulled Xiao Bai to keep from falling.

Xiaobai was also puzzled by her laughter, and said to Zhang Tan and Xiaomi: "Wanlao, my Xiba is so naive, she is stupid."
