At the comic studio morning meeting that day, Zhang Tan announced that Yang Xiaoxue would take the lead in a new project, and she would select people to form a team.

When everyone heard this, they all cheered up and looked at Yang Xiaoxue in unison, with envy beyond words.

"The new project is called "Castle in the Sky"." Zhang Tan continued, "This is not a long story, but a short story. It will be along the lines of comic books and movies, and will not be serialized in magazines."

Everyone listened carefully, this kind of project is similar to "Coco".

After announcing the personnel, Zhang Tan left first, and Xin Xiaoguang continued to organize the next meeting.

As soon as Zhang Tan left, everyone sent congratulations to Yang Xiaoxue and rushed to read the script of "Castle in the Sky".

"Coco" has topped the box office for a week in a row. "The Raid" not only failed to close the gap, but was pulled away step by step, with no hope of a comeback.

A celebration banquet was held that evening, and Zhang Tan and others attended, including many people from the comic studio.

"Coco" has reached 2.3 billion, and it is expected to reach 2.5 billion.

Zhang Tan did some calculations and found that he could get about 70-80 million from this animated movie, excluding the income from the comic books, which has nothing to do with the movie.

In addition, although the peripheral products derived from this movie are not many, they are steady and will add up to a lot.

This movie made him a lot of money, so he decided to reward everyone in the studio. In addition to giving out big red envelopes, he was also going to organize a skiing vacation in Northeast China. The year is coming to an end. After working hard for so long, it’s time to relax and build corporate culture.

Although, Zhang Tan himself didn't know what kind of corporate culture he had.

He also wanted to organize everyone from the film and television company to go together, but everyone was scattered in various crews and it was impossible to escape. Each of them was responsible for a lot of things.

At the celebration banquet, the atmosphere was lively. After three rounds of drinks, Yang Senlin, the director of the animation division, took Zhang Tan to the corner with a glass of wine in hand to chat.

Everyone who was originally looking for Zhang Tan to drink saw this and dispersed, knowing that the minister had something to say to him.

Yang Senlin first praised Zhang Tan and looked forward to the final box office and subsequent peripheral income of "Coco" before finally revealing his purpose.

"Look Zhang Tan, our cooperation has always been smooth, mutually beneficial and win-win. The Xunmeng project has been a success. The next one is "Ponyo on the Cliff", which is being produced. The company will fully guarantee it and use the best team , it must be released before the end of the year, I mean it will be released during the Spring Festival, I am working on it.”

Zhang Tan said: "This movie is different from "Coco". It is more cheerful and relaxed. It is very suitable for the Spring Festival movie."

"I think so too. But, Zhang Tan, look, the Spring Festival is here and we have no projects. Do we need to start new projects quickly? Speaking of which, it's already too late. It would be better if it were half a year in advance."

Zhang Tan immediately understood what Yang Senlin meant and said with a smile, "Just tell me, which one do you like?"

Yang Senlin laughed loudly and said, "I like all your comics."

Without waiting for Zhang Tan to speak, he continued: "But I know you won't give them all to me, so let's do this. I want three, "Insect Master", "Swordsman's Life and Death Fight", and "Qin Shi Mingyue".

Zhang Tan couldn't help but complain: "I only need these three! You want three more!"

Yang Senlin laughed.

Zhang Tan: ""The Moon in the Qin Dynasty" has given Beiping Changmei, but you can't get it."

Yang Senlin: "What you gave me is the first one, "Hundred Steps of Flying Sword," and what I want is the second one, "The End of Night." There is no conflict."

Peking Changmei Animation Company has repeatedly told Zhang Tan to leave the second part to them. Although Zhang Tan has not agreed yet, he is already inclined to give it to them, so it is impossible to change his mind and give it to Yang Senlin at the last moment.

When Yang Senlin saw this, he didn't force it and said he wanted the other two.

Zhang Tan thought for a while and asked him to pick one.

Yang Senlin finally chose "Insect Master" and left happily.

His real purpose is to get 80 points for "Insect Master", 90 points for "Swordsman's Life and Death", and 100 points for "Qin Shi Mingyue"!

He knew that it was impossible to get three movies. It was possible to get two movies, but he was not sure.

"Insect Master" is currently being serialized. The fan base is growing rapidly and the popularity is very high. Although it is not a big hit, it is small and charming, and has a very loyal and loving audience.

When he returned to Little Red Horse, he met Xiao Yingzi returning home.

"Brother Yongshan~" Zhang Tan knew Xiaoyingzi's stepfather, Huang Yongshan, who was born and raised in Huangjia Village. He was seven or eight years older than Zhang Tan and they had known him since childhood.

Huang Yongshan responded with a smile. He is a very reserved person who doesn't talk much and is silent.

"Boss Zhang~~" Xiao Yingzi said very enthusiastically, "Ah, you drank. You need to drink some tea. Don't get drunk."

"I know, thank you Xiaoyingzi, please go home early." Zhang Tan said.

"Bye~~~"

"Bye-Bye."

Huang Yongshan smiled at Zhang Tan again, turned around and left. He walked in front, while Xiao Yingzi slowed down a few beats and fell behind him, as if they were going their separate ways.

An electric car was parked outside the gate. Huang Yongshan lives in a village in the city. If he walks, it will take at least ten or twenty minutes to go around in the alleys.

"Xiao Yingzi, put on your helmet."

He gave Xiaoyingzi a helmet with a cartoon pattern on it.

"Thank you."

Xiao Yingzi took it politely, put it on her head, got on the electric car, grabbed the back seat with both hands, and went home with Huang Yongshan.

Zhang Tan looked strange. It was true that Xiao Yingzi was polite, but to be so polite to Huang Yongshan seemed too foreign. It seemed that being a stepfather was not that easy.

He returned home, and not long after, Xiaobai and Liuliu came to the door and told him excitedly that Dudu's father was going to participate in the competition tomorrow and invited them to watch it together.

"What a fun duck~" Liuliu said as he glanced at the house with his little eyes, looking for something.

"What competition?" Zhang Tan asked curiously. He remembered that Dudu's father seemed to be a kayaker.

"Row a boat." Xiaobai said, and in order to let Zhang Tan understand it more vividly, he sang: "Dongchadongchadongchacha~~~"

Liuliu on the side quickly covered his ears and said unhappily: "Xiaobai, please stop singing, I'm going to fall ill."

Xiaobai stared at her.

Pomegranate snorted arrogantly, raised her arms and said, "I am a strong little pomegranate, and I am still an Englishman."

Zhang Tan: "What are you?"

"English."

"What's this?"

"Hahaha Hercules, Dudu's father is Ingrid. I can defeat Xiaobai and make her cry."

Zhang Tan immediately thought of Zhao Gongcheng's figure. His upper limbs were unusually developed. His arms and muscles looked like those of a strong man.

Liuliu was feeling proud when he was suddenly staggered by Xiaobai's kick, as if he was drunk.

"Ghost Eyes~ Let you know how powerful I am, Xiaobai."
