Dad Academy

The box office of "Northeast Police Story" was finally set at 500 million.

For a small-budget film, and it was in the off-season, it is very remarkable that it can achieve such results. Director Ma Shi and starring Xie Miao got it out of the blue and became an instant hit.

Especially Xie Miao, who was remembered overnight for his superb fighting skills.

Action movies have always been the mainstream genre of Chinese movies, but as the older generation of kung fu stars get older and gradually withdraw from the big screen, newcomers cannot catch up, and there is a gap. Xie Miao came out at this time and made up for it very well. This gap may be why he became an instant hit.

Chinese people have a special liking for kung fu movies and action movies.

Chinese Kung Fu is also very well-known around the world. Xie Miao has given people hope, although this hope is still very small.

With "Northeast Police Story", Zhang Tan made a profit of 175 million.

However, the only fly in the ointment is that as the number of moviegoers increases, the score of "Northeast Police Story" has dropped significantly, only 7.2 points.

And there are a lot of negative comments.

While the audience was still debating "Northeast Police Story", Little Red Horse Comics quietly launched the animation project of "Despicable Me". At the same time, another big production "The Matrix" was completed.

"The Matrix" was shot in three parts at once, but when editing, only the first part will be edited first, and the rest will be discussed later, so there is no rush.

Zhang Tan participated in the editing discussion and once again set the tone for the film's style.

The director of this film is Chen Bing, and the assistant directors are Ren Zhicheng and Wang Hao. They do not have the final editing rights, and the final rights are in the hands of Zhang Tan. Although he was relieved about Chen Bing, it involved hundreds of millions of investments, and he couldn't delegate some powers.

After participating in the editing seminar on the first day, Zhang Tan participated in the editing work on the first day, and then handed it over to Chen Bing and two assistant directors, and asked producer Xie Ou to keep an eye on it.

Wang Hao spent one night having dinner with Zhang Tan and chatted about his time as a director. He was filled with emotion, both tiring and rewarding.

"I learned a lot from being with Directors Chen and Ren. This opportunity is so rare. Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Wang Hao said with emotion, sincerely thanking Zhang Tan for giving him such an opportunity.

Zhang Tan took a sip of beer and said with a smile: "The main thing is that you are good at using your brain and can learn things. The teacher is by your side. Whether you can learn something or not depends on you."

Having said that, Wang Hao knew that for great directors like Chen Bing and Ren Zhicheng, if Zhang Tan hadn't recommended them, he, a new director, would never have had the chance to learn from them.

Wang Hao is a new director trained by Zhang Tan. His debut film was "My Childhood Looking South" with only a few hundred thousand investment. After that, he directed "Mo Di" and won the New Director Award in one fell swoop. It was a smooth sailing.

After "Mo Di", he listened to Zhang Tan's suggestion and instead of seeking quick success, he joined "The Matrix" as the second assistant director, working for Chen Bing and Ren Zhicheng.

Looking at him now, Zhang Tan feels much calmer and more at ease.

"Do you want to rest for a while?" Zhang Tan asked.

Wang Hao was stunned for a moment and understood the meaning of the words. His eyes lit up and he said, "I'm always ready. If you need me, just ask."

Zhang Tan was not polite and said: "The company is preparing a costume martial arts film. You should be exposed to a lot of action scenes on the set of "The Matrix" this time. Do you have the confidence to do it yourself?"

Wang Hao looked at Zhang Tan and saw only trust in him.

He said firmly: "I am very confident, but I don't know which project it is?"

"The Matrix" has a lot of action scenes, and he did learn a lot.

Zhang Tan said: ""Xiu Chun Dao"."

…

That night, when Zhang Tan returned to Little Red Horse Academy, he keenly noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

He did not rush home, but sat down at Lao Li's coffee table, ordered a cup of Taibai Xiuya tea, and asked, "Is there anything unusual in the academy tonight?"

Lao Li said with a smile: "Life is peaceful, nothing unusual."

Zhang Tan asked: "Why is Xiao Du crying?"

Lao Li said: "Did you forget his nickname? Isn't it normal to cry?"

Zhang Tan called Liuliu who was passing by to come over, but Liuliu said, "I don't drink tea."

Zhang Tan said angrily: "I'm not asking you to drink tea, I'm asking you something."

Then Liuliu came over reluctantly, "What's the matter? Ask quickly, I have something else to do. You can't ask about confidential matters. If you ask me, you won't tell me. I swore to you."

Zhang Tanxin said, do you still take your oath seriously?

"Why is Xiao Du crying?"

Liuliu looked back at Xiao Du. Xiao Du was sitting on the steps in the yard, with several children sitting around him, including Xiao Bai's aunt and nephew.

Liuliu said: "Xiao Du was beaten by his father. He was crying before he came to Little Red Horse."

Zhang Tan asked: "How long have you been here?"

Liuliu said: "I came at seven o'clock."

"It's already half past seven. Have you been crying for so long?"

"It's a duck, it's a duck. He didn't cry at first, but when we comforted him, he cried even more."

Immediately, Liuliu sighed further: "If I had known, we wouldn't have comforted him. He is really capable of crying. Leifeng Pagoda will be cried down by him, and Jinshan Temple will be flooded by him..."

"You also know Leifeng Pagoda and Jinshan Temple!"

"I know a lot, and I also know that you let me film without paying you, huh!"

Luoliu left angrily.

Zhang Tan was speechless, if you don't leave, I will tell you the truth tonight, but why are you leaving?

Xiao Du came to Little Red Horse crying tonight. According to him, he was beaten and scolded by his father, so he was very sad and cried a lot.

Everyone comforted him, but he cried even harder. He had stopped crying originally.

Although Xiao Du has a nickname called Xiao Du who gets beaten, and he really likes crying, he is very popular. When they see him crying, many children come to comfort him.

Everyone tried to comfort him to be strong.

At first, there were more than ten or twenty Guawazi surrounding him to comfort him, but after he cried for half an hour, everyone had almost left, and only Xiaobai and several monitors were left.

If it weren't for their duties, Xiaobai and the others would probably have run away.

Xiao Du crying is really annoying.

I’ve never seen someone so capable of crying, and he’s still a boy!

Zhang Tan returned home, and after a while, Xiaobai also came back. As soon as he came back, he sat on the sofa out of breath. Ge You was paralyzed, looking like he was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Zhang Tan brought her a glass of water, sat down next to her, handed the glass to her, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so tired?"

Xiaobai gurgled a few sips of water and exhaled: "This is not to comfort Xiaodu Lei."

"Is he feeling better?"

"No more crying."

"Why is he crying so hard?"

Xiaobai explained to Zhang Tan again, which was basically the same as what Liuliu said.

Zhang Tan squeezed Xiaobai's arms and legs, turned on the TV, and played "Windmill and Fake Sophistication" to relax.

Xiaobai was quickly attracted by the windmill car and fake sophistication, and laughed and was amused from time to time.

Zhang Tan sat next to her and watched with her, and was amused by mice and cats from time to time.
