Chapter 388 Am I Proud? (12)
Zhang Tan is no longer a member of the animation department, so when he heard from Jiang Rong that the animation department was interested in adapting "Coco", he didn't say much. Jiang Rong didn't know that the comic was related to him.
Only a few people in the company knew that Zhang Tan had opened a comic studio, but they didn't know it was called Little Red Horse.
Seeing that Zhang Tan was concerned about this, Jiang Rong told him again two days later that the animation department had decided to adapt "Coco".
"This animation has great potential. The single book is now selling very well and the market is very popular. Of course, this is not the most important thing." Jiang Rong said.
Zhang Tan knows that this is indeed not the most important thing, not even very important, because an animation takes at least a year to produce. With this time, no matter how popular a comic book is, it should cool down.
But at least it shows that this story is very marketable.
"The most important thing is that this story has a very positive core and rich connotations. It is a very good story." Jiang Rong said.
This is for sure, otherwise Zhang Tan would not have chosen this story to write.
"Speaking of it, it's a bit strange." Jiang Rong said, "This comic comes from a place called Little Red Horse Comics Studio. I remember you opened a late-night academy. It seems to be also called Little Red Horse. Little Red Horse is now Is it so popular?”
Zhang Tan smiled and said: "It's not that Little Red Pony is popular, it's because there was Little Red Pony Academy before there was Little Red Pony Comic Studio."
"I know, I know, they copied your work." Jiang Rong said with a smile. She thought Zhang Tan was trying to get a reputation and wanted to gain status.
Zhang Tan smiled and said, forget it if you don't understand. Jiang Rong is very capable at work, but she is a bit careless and not considerate enough. She is a carefree woman in life.
That night, Zhang Tan heard Xin Xiaoguang report that Pujiang Film Studio had also taken a fancy to "Coco" and proposed to adapt it into an animation.
"Did you recommend the boss?" Xin Xiaoguang asked. His boss was from Pujiang Film Studio. By coincidence, he also stepped in to compete for comics.
"No, they don't know that Little Red Horse Comics Studio belongs to me. On behalf of the studio, please join Wang Yinghu to talk to them." Zhang Tan said.
"Oh, do you want to keep it a secret?"
"There's no need to keep it secret. They won't tell unless they ask. If you want to ask, just tell the truth." Seeing that Xin Xiaoguang was a little worried, he said, "It's okay, what are you worried about! I know that I run a comic studio company, and the company's business does not cover Comics, so there are no prohibitions on this, so don’t worry.”
"Oh, haha, that's good. Boss, do you have any requirements?"
"The request remains as mentioned before, just one requirement, and the content of the story will not be expanded."
After Xin Xiaoguang finished his report, he was about to leave when he happened to meet Tan Jin'er and Tan Xi'er at the gate of the academy.
"Jin'er, you're here." When Xin Xiaoguang saw Tan Jin'er, his little eyes lit up and he greeted her with a smile.
Before Tan Jin'er could speak, little sister Xi'er at her feet had already responded cheerfully: "hiahiahia~Brother Xiaoguang, you are working overtime~~~You are working so hard~"
Xin Xiaoguang looked down at her. The little guy smiled so brightly. He was such a happy little magpie.
"Thank you for your concern. It's not hard for me."
Xi'er looked at Zhang Tan who was not far away and smiled, "Don't be afraid of Boss Zhang. He is the boss and he is a good person."
Xin Xiaoguang was speechless. This little guy knew a lot and knew that the boss liked to exploit employees.
"It's not hard work."
"Bye~~ Go home quickly."
I don't want to go home yet. I want to chat with your sister a little more. Don't rush me to leave, Xin Xiaoguang said in his heart.
Tan Jin'er is cute and beautiful, and she is also very sensible and self-reliant. Everyone likes such a good girl, let alone a single man like him. In fact, several single cartoonists in the studio have an unrequited love for Tan Jin'er.
When he saw Xi'er standing on tiptoes and craning her neck to look at him, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at?"
"hiahia~~" Xi'er covered her mouth with her small hands, her eyes narrowed into shells when she smiled, "Are there any flies on your head?"
Xin Xiaoguang:-_-||
He felt extremely embarrassed. There is a reason for Xi'er to say this. For a while, he used to put hair wax on his hair. The amount was very large, as if he had been tinkering in the oil pan for a few times without drying it, because the ingredients used were too rich and fragrant. The overflow attracted a big-headed fly, which stuck to someone else's jiojio. It was hard to extricate itself and made me anxious to death.
It was Xiaobai and Xi'er who discovered that Xiaoguang's brother had a big-headed fly rubbing his hands on his head. She even learned about it on the spot and used it for herself.
Damn, it’s true that you don’t care about anything. Don’t little Tan Xier know how to save face for others?
"Bye~~~Brother Xiaoguang~~" Xi'er waved enthusiastically to Xin Xiaoguang, who was running away. There was a pattering of footsteps around her, and then another little voice sounded, standing beside her, also facing under the street lamp. Xin Xiaoguang walked away and waved: "Bye~~~Remember to play duck, brother Xiaoguang, I will treat you as a sick duck~~"
Xi'er looked sideways and saw hiahia laughing and hugging Liuliu who was running towards her. The two little guys hugged each other, laughed and laughed, and ran to play hand in hand.
Zhang Tan and Tan Jin'er watched them run into the classroom and said, "I heard that you don't have to be on duty at night?"
Tan Jin'er hummed and said, "I haven't brought Xi'er to the academy these past few nights."
"What is this today?"
"Xi'er misses my friends and the little red horse."
Xi'er didn't say it, but she knew.
"Come whenever you want. You are always welcome here."
"Thank you, Boss Zhang."
"Just call me Zhang Tan."
"Okay, Boss Zhang."
"..."
"Hee~Okay, Zhang Tan."
"Are you free tonight?"
"Yeah, I really don't have anything to do."
"Since you have nothing to do, why don't you stay at Little Red Horse and play with the kids? I see you are very popular with them and you are very friendly."
"Ah?"
"Just think of it as you working here to offset Xier's tuition."
"This, this won't work."
"Don't you want to help?"
"No, no, it's okay for me to play with the kids, but the tuition still needs to be paid. I can make money."
She spoke sincerely and pleaded with her eyes. Zhang Tan thought about what she had just experienced with Guo Kui, and she probably felt very averse to receiving favors for nothing, so she stopped forcing him, and said, "Let's talk about it later. By the way, didn't you ask me how to practice writing last time? I'll tell you if I have time tonight?"
Tan Jin'er's eyes lit up, but she hesitated, "Will it take up your time? I didn't think about it at the time."
"Then I'm serious. Let's go. I'll tell you. Don't be so shy like a little girl."
Tan Jin'er's eyes followed Zhang Tan's figure away, and she was stunned. She was a little girl. Did Boss Zhang treat me as a brother?
Zhang Tan had already walked up the steps in front of the building. He turned around and saw Tan Jin'er still standing there, and shouted, "Come on, you're not as smart as Xi'er."
As soon as the voice fell, a burst of hiahiahia laughter rang out in the classroom, "Someone is praising the baby~~hiahia, am I proud? I can't be proud~~~~~"
