Chapter 761 Where is the translator (22)

When Zhang Tan entered the room, he saw Xiaobai sitting on the sofa, shaking his feet. Qin Huifang squatted in front of her, peeling lychees for her to eat and talking to her.

The service is so attentive.

Zhang Tan sat aside and asked, "Isn't uncle at home?"

Qin Huifang had just peeled a lychee, brought it to Xiaobai's mouth, and said with pity: "Xiaobai has lost weight~"

Then he replied to Zhang Tan, "He is busy with work and has no concept of rest days."

He took another lychee and prepared to peel it for Xiaobai to eat.

Zhang Tan said, "Mom, you don't have to do this. If Xiaobai wants to eat, he will eat it himself. He is not a three-year-old child."

Qin Huifang seemed not to hear, and continued to peel lychees while talking to Xiaobai.

Xiaobai looked up at Zhang Tan and bared his teeth in a smile.

This little guy has lost some weight. She has obviously gained weight. She was weighed just a few days ago and she is heavier. Now her life is much better than before. She used to be locked up in a rented house and only ate steamed buns and noodles made in the morning. She was thin and black, with a pointed chin and sunken eye sockets, like Wild child.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tan felt distressed for a while, picked up a lychee and peeled it, and said, "I'll do it. Madam, you go ahead."

"I'm chatting with Xiaobai." Qin Huifang said and refused to leave.

Zhang Tan: "It's time to make lunch."

Qin Huifang: "Let Xiaoxue do it."

"The food Xiaoxue makes is edible, but it doesn't taste very good. Can Xiaobai get used to it?"

Qin Huifang thought for a while, and then got up to cook.

As soon as she left, Zhang Mingxue came in outside the door. Zhang Mingxue stood at the door, looking at Zhang Tan coldly, without saying a word, as if she was about to draw a sword.

"What's this expression?" Zhang Tan felt a little guilty. Couldn't she have heard what he just said?

Zhang Mingxue said bitterly: "The food I cooked is just edible? Isn't it delicious? It's not delicious. You ate three bowls that day!!! If you can't finish three bowls, are you going to fight a tiger? Ah?"

Zhang Tan was speechless and looked at Xiaobai. Xiaobai quickly clarified the relationship: "It depends on where I live. It's not me who is arrogant. I don't want to be arrogant about anything."

Zhang Tan was speechless and said to Zhang Mingxue: "You must have made a mistake. I didn't mean that. Don't be like this. Sit down quickly. I'll give you some lychees."

He brought all the basket of lychees on the coffee table to Zhang Mingxue. Xiaobai's little hand was about to grab one, but missed it.

Zhang Tan said: "Give it to my aunt, but we won't eat it."

Xiaobai understood the general situation and said, "Then the kid won't eat."

Zhang Mingxue said angrily: "I bought this in the first place."

Zhang Tan: "Ah, I'll go to the kitchen and see if I can help you."

Escaped.

Seeing this, Xiaobai paused for a moment, quickly jumped off the sofa, clapped his little hands and said, "Xiaoyu didn't come yet? I'll go see him."

He said he was going to see Wang Xiaoyu, but instead he went to the kitchen.

Lunch was made jointly by Zhang Tan and Qin Huifang. Although Zhang Mingxue did not have to cook, she was asked to entertain Xiaobai. She and Xiaobai sat in the living room and looked at each other in silence. Xiaobai was watching cartoons and eating lychees, while Zhang Mingxue was playing on her mobile phone. I stayed up until lunch time.

Qin Huifang complained whether Zhang Hui would come back for dinner.

She asked Zhang Tan to come over today. Actually, she mainly wanted to see Xiaobai. Didn't she come last time? She said she was going to see off her aunt. Secondly, she did have something to tell Zhang Tan.

This matter is a bit complicated to talk about. When it comes to cultural promotion, telling the Chinese story well not only must be told well in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. The first one to bear the brunt is Hong Kong.

The current situation in Hong Kong is to strengthen the education of the country and the country in all aspects such as political, cultural and educational aspects. To this end, the government takes the lead in strengthening exchanges in terms of cultural propaganda, including focusing on strengthening cooperation with TV stations in Hong Kong in terms of film and television. It is to establish channels to help these TV stations and film and television companies purchase some film and television copyrights in the mainland.

Pujiang is a cutting-edge cultural town with a developed film and television industry. Last year, many blockbusters emerged, so this work fell to the Propaganda Department of the Pujiang Municipal Party Committee, with Qin Huifang in charge.

Zhang Tan's "Twelve Hours in Chang'an" was selected without any surprise, and it was requested by the TV station in Xiangjiang.

"In a few days, someone from the TV station will come to talk to you about copyright." Qin Huifang said.

Xiaobai seemed to understand, and was busy eating. She could never finish the food in her small bowl, which was piled high, and Qin Huifang kept picking up food for her.

"Too much nao, too much nao, too much nao, I will support nao to death."

Xiaobai was helpless and full of frustration. She had eaten for so long and worked so hard, but she found that there seemed to be no less food in the small bowl. The food in the small bowl seemed to be longer. She felt lonely after eating.

Qin Huifang said: "Okay, I won't pinch you anymore."

Zhang Tan asked: "So this means giving away the copyright for free?"

Qin Huifang: "That's not what you mean. We are just matchmaking and matchmaking for you. You can negotiate the specific details yourself and follow the market rules."

Zhang Tan understood. This meant that on the premise of success, we should try our best to follow the market rules, but in fact we would still suffer a loss, because the other party knew that they had to negotiate this, so they would definitely try to lower the price as much as possible.

"Okay, I understand. I also have something to ask you."

Zhang Tan told the story about "I'm Not the God of Medicine". While Qin Huifang sighed, she thought for a while before replying: "Your case has no universal applicability. From a movie perspective, I suggest you not write it like this in the script. Otherwise, you may be attacked by others for taking advantage of the law or even promoting smuggling..."

Qin Huifang's words made Zhang Tan enlightened. After returning home, he changed the ending of the script of "I'm Not the God of Medicine". After writing it, he sent it to Zheng Youmin. Next, he should find investment and film and television companies for the drama. .

But before that, someone from Xiangjiang TV came to find out exactly what Qin Huifang said.

The liaison person is a staff member of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee. He will participate in the entire process and be responsible for communication and liaison work.

"The other party will arrive in Pujiang tomorrow morning and wants to meet you that afternoon. Mr. Zhang, can you check the time?" the staff asked on the phone.

Zhang Tan is incompetent. In fact, the copyright of the TV series "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an" is mainly in the hands of Pujiang TV. Zhang Tan owns some, but it is only a minority. Most of them belong to the studio, so if Xiangjiang TV wants to introduce this drama, it should be with Pujiang Film Talk to the studio. However, the other party not only wants to introduce this TV series, but also wants to purchase the copyright to adapt the novel in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. This copyright is in Zhang Tan's hands, so he must talk to Zhang Tan. Pujiang Film Studio gave Zhang Tan the full responsibility to take the lead.

"Do you have any requirements for the location?" the staff asked again.

Zhang Tan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the Four Seasons Hotel on West Chang'an Street. They can stay there, which is convenient for us."

The staff said: "Okay, then I will arrange for you to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel."

Zhang Tan asked doubtfully: "You arranged it? You also provided for their food and lodging?"

Staff: "Haha, the ministry takes it very seriously."

Zhang Tan didn't say anything more, and the staff finally told him to bring an English translator with him.

"And there are foreigners?"

"There are no foreigners, but I heard that the person in charge of their visit this time likes to speak English. He may need a translator, so it's best to bring him with him."

Zhang Tan did not take this matter to heart and went to the Four Seasons Hotel, the hotel where Tan Jin'er was staying, at the agreed time the next day, along with Xin Xiaoguang.

"Brother, I don't understand these very well~" Xin Xiaoguang felt uneasy on the way there.

Zhang Tan comforted him: "I don't need you to do anything, just follow me."

In short, Xin Xiaoguang is here to support the show. If Zhang Tan goes alone, it won't be a big problem. He knows everything he needs to know, but he seems to be weak and the momentum of the negotiation will be much weaker.

At the same time, Zhang Tan deeply realized that the talent pool in film and television studios was too weak, and it would be a pity to have so few people when they are needed.

For example, this time, Xin Xiaoguang can only be roped in to make up for it.

Pujiang Film Studio sent legal, financial and public relations personnel over, but they called ten minutes ago to say that their car had been hit by someone else's car and they were stuck in a traffic jam. They couldn't make it on time and would be ten minutes late. .

When Zhang Tan and Xin Xiaoguang arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel, the publicity department staff asked a young man named Xiaoye to wait at the door. When they saw them arriving, they came up to them and said, "The four of them have already arrived. I will take you there."

Zhang Tan looked at him and smiled: "You will be there when we talk about things later, right? Xiaoye."

Ono said: "The matter is mainly for you two to talk about. I will not be there. If you need anything, you can call me at any time. I will be waiting outside the door."

Zhang Tan smiled and said, "How bad it is for you to wait outside the door. We are all our own people. When we talk about things, you come in together and sit with us."

Ono was greatly moved when he heard this. He felt that Mr. Zhang was really considerate. He was so famous and had such a strong background, but he had no airs.

Xin Xiaoguang's eyes were strange. He could tell that Boss Zhang was not approachable. He was obviously trying to attract more people, including government staff to make up for his numbers.

"Is this the translator?" Xiaoye smiled and recognized Xin Xiaoguang.

Xin Xiaoguang didn't know how he became a translator. He only knew a few words in Japanese and how to do you do in English.

"He is a legal officer." Zhang Tan introduced.

Xin Xiaoguang suddenly felt a slight pain in his tooth. He was a legal person and he didn't understand the law at all. He only knew that he could not break the law.

"Isn't that right, Xiaoguang? What's wrong with your teeth?"

Xin Xiaoguang: "Haha, it's okay, my gums are a little inflamed."

Zhang Tan: "That's okay, just be patient and let it pass. Let's go, I'm going to trouble you today."

Ono followed him and reminded again: "Mr. Zhang, translator, we still need a translator."

Zhang Tan said: "Didn't you say there are no foreigners? Why do you need to translate?"

Ono smiled bitterly, thinking, didn't he say it last time?

"The person in charge there speaks English but not Chinese."

Zhang Tan thought for a while and happened to see Tan Jin'er looking this way in the distance. He smiled and said, "I've found the translator. Here, it's right there. Wait for me and I'll go get the translator."
