Chapter 62: Invite the children to watch cartoons

Zimbabwe, the capital of Harare.

Zhao Xiaochuan and the others came to the headquarters of the International Children's Fund (UNICEF). This is the Africa headquarters of UNICEF and occupies a large area of the building.

Finally found the office of the president of the foundation, Zhao Xiaochuan waited outside the door for a long time before seeing President Fukexi.

"What are you doing here?" Foxy looked at Zhao Xiaochuan and asked.

Zhao Xiaochuan explained his intentions, and the conditions given were the same as those of international aid organizations, with the foundation helping to negotiate with the cinema, and Zhao Xiaochuan donating the box office.

Foxy thought for a moment, shook his head and refused: "Our foundation will not do such a thing, please go back." ”

Zhao Xiaochuan took out the USB flash drive containing "Gourd Baby": "You may be able to watch our animated films, isn't your foundation the Children's Foundation, children like to watch cartoons." And we have prepared versions in various languages, Swahili, Shona, Zulu, Arabic, and all the languages of Africa......"

In the end, Foxy still did not accept Zhao Xiaochuan's suggestion, and in Foxie's heart, this matter was thankless. Having worked in a place like Africa for a long time, he knows the spending power here, and selling movies here is a thankless task.

Unlike Kenya's international aid organization, this is Zimbabwe, which is much poorer than Kenya, so Fox has a deeper understanding of the situation in Africa.

did not achieve the expected goal, Zhao Xiaochuan left disappointed. Back at the hotel, Zhao Xiaochuan thought about what happened after coming to Africa.

At first, it was because there were no countries in Africa that released "Gourd Baby", so Zhao Xiaochuan wanted to try his luck. But after arriving in Africa, he saw a qiē that made him regret coming here, but he was still a little reluctant to give up and wanted to continue to try his luck.

In the International Aid Organization, Zhao Xiaochuan's agreed conditions were not beneficial to her, he was just unwilling to be turned into scum by Disney in the international film market. In fact, the rookie film and television company was still turned into scum by Disney in seconds, even if Zhao Xiaochuan has a golden finger against the sky, but this gap cannot be reversed.

If Foxey agrees to Zhao Xiaochuan's conditions, it will at most affect the box office of Disney's "Cars 3" in Africa, and it will not have any impact on the overall situation, and the box office here is really irrelevant.

Zhao Xiaochuan plans to leave, and there is no point in continuing to stay in Africa. Zhao Xiaochuan glanced at Dia, and didn't know how to arrange him, should he take him back to China? Or stay here?

Seeing Zhao Xiaochuan looking at him, Dia had an expression of wanting to speak and stopping.

"What's wrong? What do you want to say? ”

Dia only learned today that Zhao Xiaochuan was originally making movies, which was a completely unfamiliar thing to him: "Boss, can you show me the cartoon you talked about today?" ”

"Do you want to watch cartoons? Have you ever watched cartoons before? Zhao Xiaochuan looked at Dia curiously.

Dia nodded: "I used to watch cartoons at my friend's house, cat and mouse, it's good. Dia's eyes were full of curiosity and eagerness, and he hadn't seen any cartoons except cat and mouse.

Zhao Xiaochuan booked a hotel suite of the highest specifications in the hotel, and there was a computer in the room. He turned on the computer, inserted the USB flash drive, and turned it on. Zhao Xiaochuan's USB flash drive has dozens of language versions, all of which are the languages of local African ethnic groups, and they are made with a super video editor.

Clicking on the Shona version, 80% of Zimbabwe's population is of the Shona ethnic group, and Dia is the Shona ethnic group.

Next, Dia watched the cartoon for more than an hour with relish, and after watching it, she still looked like she couldn't get enough.

Dia's concentration when watching cartoons was seen by Zhao Xiaochuan, and the expression that changed with the plot proved the excitement of cartoons. Zhao Xiaochuan was thoughtful.

Although UNICEF Africa rejected Zhao Xiaochuan, Faulsey still watched the cartoon that Zhao Xiaochuan copied. The quality of this cartoon is much better than he expected.

In recent years, there have been many fewer wars in Africa, and the economy has begun to recover slowly, and everything has been developing in a good direction. However, the Foundation has received much less donations than before. There are no wars, no disasters, and naturally this place will not attract people's attention as much as before.

Regarding Zhao Xiaochuan's cartoons, Foxey has some ideas, but his attempts are much more than Zhao Xiaochuan wants to give, it is only a part of the box office of cartoons in Africa, and it is not taken to heart by Foxey. However, Zhao Xiaochuan has left, and Fukexi's ideas are useless.

Zhao Xiaochuan thought about it for a long time, about Africa, about cartoons, and Dia's attentive expression when watching cartoons. Zhao Xiaochuan is not a nosy person, but he is such a kind college student who has not left the college campus.

Zhao Xiaochuan also thought of Rex, an international aid organization, and the many volunteers. He made a decision.

Zhao Xiaochuan went to the International Children's Fund again. This time, what Zhao Xiaochuan said surprised Fawkesy.

"What? You're going to treat African kids to a movie? "Foxy didn't understand what Zhao Xiaochuan meant, and in fact, Kane, who was in charge of the translation, didn't understand Zhao Xiaochuan's intentions, and the guide translated such a result.

Zhao Xiaochuan said: "It's to invite children to watch cartoons, not to invite them to the cinema to watch movies." Many African children have not seen much cartoon and their cultural life is too scarce. So I invite them to watch cartoons, I don't have to go to the cinema, I am willing to donate money to buy projectors and screens, as long as one projector and one screen, I can invite many children to watch cartoons. ”

Fukexi pondered, Zhao Xiaochuan's thoughts coincided with him, but he thought further than Zhao Xiaochuan: "Okay, I support you." ”

"President Faulcey, you don't even ask me how much I donate?" Zhao Xiaochuan was puzzled, this matter needs to provide a lot of manpower for the foundation, and if Zhao Xiaochuan can't donate a lot of money, it will not be beneficial to the foundation.

Is it because what I am doing is charity, so the foundation supports it? Zhao Xiaochuan thought like this, in fact, he was thinking too much, and what he did was indeed a good thing, but for poor Africa, inviting them to watch cartoons was not much charity.

Fukexi said: "As long as Mr. Zhao can donate a sufficient number of projectors and projection cloths, we will do this." We also need to recruit a large number of volunteers, and these volunteers also need to spend a lot of money on food, clothing, housing and transportation, Mr. Zhao only needs to support a part of it, and we will bear the rest. ”

Zhao Xiaochuan said: "I don't have any way in Africa, and I can't find a place to buy a batch of projectors." Well, how much money do you need, just say, I will do my best to satisfy you. ”

Foxy was stunned, the last time he saw Zhao Xiaochuan, he knew that Zhao Xiaochuan was a businessman. A businessman, in the eyes of Fauxie, is a mercenary person, and money comes first in the eyes of a businessman. But what Zhao Xiaochuan is doing now is not at all what a businessman should do, but more like a philanthropist. Was it because I was moved by my charity spirit? Faulksi thought so.

Zhao Xiaochuan and Foxy talked about a lot of details.

"You said your animated films have been released in many countries?"

"Let's not mention this, except for our domestic China, the box office of other countries is pitiful. At this time, it is estimated that they have all been taken off the shelves. ”

After Zhao Xiaochuan left, Foxy made a phone call to Avril. Avril Avril is a freelance journalist based in Africa. Because he often writes about various aspects of Africa, especially about poverty in Africa, and calls for donations, he has a good relationship with Faulxie.

Avril often travels with UNICEF volunteers and collects information from the foundation.

Today she mined a piece of news from a piece of information about the game, that is, a husky can actually play games. This message not only has pictures and truths, but also says that the dog will play games live on the cat-bear live broadcast platform at night.

Mo Xiaomin, who was curious, opened the live broadcast platform, and the most popular anchor was the husky. Mo Xiaomin couldn't believe her eyes, as a journalist, she knew that this qiē was likely to be a fake image forged by various technologies, and it was probably hype.

In any case, the hype was a success, and such a piece of news, whether it was a fact, a hype for Bo to be famous, or a revelation of the truth, was a very gimmicky piece of news. Mo Xiaomin decided to report to his boss tomorrow and then interview the owner of the husky.
