Chapter 151: The Road That Cannot Be Taken
"Vivi, do you know how to drive?"
"No, boss."
"Zhou Nan, will you?"
"Neither will I."
"Alas, how can you get enough to eat when you go out of society like this!" Zhang Tanda sighed, "To learn, driving is a skill, so let's do it, the studio will pay for the two of you to learn to drive, and help me drive after learning...... No, female drivers drive wildly, so forget it, you still don't want to learn. ”
Ma Weiwei, Zhou Nan: "......"
Zhang Tan covets that it is more convenient to have a driver to drive and pick him up, but his greedy character of being afraid of death has decided, and he is very uninterested in novice drivers, especially novice female drivers.
I thought that by April next year, I would be 18 years old and would be able to take the driver's license test.
And he settled down.
At this time, patience has passed.
In the end, Zhang Quanshun drove his beloved Audi A6 to send Zhang Tan to school, not directly at the school gate, but at the door of the rental house. Even Ma Weiwei and Zhou Nan's two assistants, Zhang Tan didn't bring them.
"Well, I'll go, you have a good class at school, although Nortel said that the back door will open for you, but you still have to learn what you should learn."
Zhang Tan nodded: "I understand." ”
Zhang Quanshun wanted to say something more, but he didn't have anything to say, so he nodded, then got in the car and left Shuangdun Town.
He went back to have a lot of things to do.
Since the Internet café was transferred to Zhang Tan's lobby brother, Zhang Quanshun has been on the Luzhou studio all day long, taking this as his new career. The studio's current business is mainly focused on fighting piracy. The legal team followed the legal department of Anwei Literature and Art Publishing House to review piracy in various places.
In addition, Tan Zhang Cup. The Jianghu Martial Arts Grand Prix is also in busy preparations.
"The Four Famous Catches Kanto" and "The Four Famous Catchers Will Meet the Jingshi" have already sent film and television companies that have sent their intention to buy film and television adaptation rights. And on the shelves for a month. "The Condor Heroes", whose sales exceeded 900,000 copies and topped the best-selling list of Chinese books for four consecutive weeks, has many film and television companies trying to make offers.
Most of the offers are within one million.
Li Yan naturally won't agree, she has been following Zhang Tan for a long time, and she has confidence in Zhang Tan, and she is determined to wait for the TV series adapted from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to be broadcast, and then come to negotiate the adaptation rights with other film and television companies. It is necessary to know the 500,000 yuan adaptation fee of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". In her and Zhang Tan's eyes, it is like giving away Chinese cabbage for nothing.
The future adaptation is no longer a whole package, but a collection of calculations.
It is absolutely impossible to sell an episode without giving a 180,000 adaptation fee.
Zhang Tan's martial arts works are not only a big seller in the simplified version, but also a big seller in the traditional version, which is popular throughout the Chinese region, and the sales figures in Southeast Asia are very good. has almost reached the influence of the older generation of martial arts masters. Moreover, some Chinese in North America and Europe have gradually come into contact with Zhang Tan's novels.
Two days ago, when he went to Wu Khan, Zhang Tan told the editorial department the mailing address of the Luzhou studio, so that the editorial department could announce it next time, and the letters written by readers to Zhang Tan in the future can be sent directly to the Luzhou studio. At the same time, I also brought back the letter from the editorial department, several large packages, and spent a lot of money on consignment.
After coming back. The people in the studio have nothing to do, so they just open the letter and play.
Many of them were sent from overseas.
One letter is from New York, USA. The author of the letter is a high school student who has only been immigrating for a year, and his parents chose to immigrate to the United States, but after arriving in the United States, the high school student could not integrate into the American social environment and felt extremely lonely. Later, his relatives sent him a set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" from China, and he held this set of books. Survived the most difficult years.
And what's interesting is that because of the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" he brought, he also became a popular figure among several Chinese children in the neighborhood, everyone borrowed books from him to read, and later even parents came to borrow books from him.
Gradually. He established friendships with his Chinese classmates through this book, and because his foreigner classmates invited him to tell the story of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he once again became a little celebrity in the class, and he was no longer as unsociable as he was before he came.
It's an interesting story.
makes Zhang Tan very happy, because even if his book travels across the ocean, there can be readers, and foreigners are interested, which is full of a sense of achievement.
Therefore, Zhang Tan asked Zhou Nan to ghostwrite and wrote a reply.
Roughly speaking, I am very happy that my book can help this student integrate into life in the United States, and I hope that everything will go well for him in the United States, and if he can, promote Chinese culture as much as possible, and not let pride and prejudice slander China.
Zhang Tan has no opinion on immigration.
Since they yearn for the life of the United States, then go for it, as long as they don't go abroad and scold China, there is nothing to blame. Moreover, it is not without benefit that they can emigrate to foreign countries and promote Chinese culture to go out.
……
Sweep away the dust, replace it with new toiletries, and tidy up your rental room.
Zhang Tan went to the courtyard behind the bungalow again, there was a pressure well in the yard, and took a cold shower carefully.
Swap into a new T-shirt and slacks.
Looking at the tall man in the mirror, Zhang Tan smiled with satisfaction.
His figure has been greatly developed.
Because of long-term exercise, the body is very stylish, although the muscles are not as exaggerated as fitness athletes, but there is no half of fat, and the eight-pack abdominal muscles in the abdomen are clearly presented with a little force. The pectoralis major muscle is also swollen, and it is clear that there is a furrow between the two pectoralis major muscles, and the contour of the pectoralis muscles is more obvious when viewed from the side.
His current figure is no exaggeration to say that he is a sports student.
I don't know if it's fully nourished, his height has reached 176cm, which is 1cm taller than in his previous life, and in his previous life, he was twenty years old, and his height was not long at all, and now he is only seventeen, and there are still three years to develop, so he can grow another 1cm.
At 177cm, it's not too short.
Although the face is not handsome enough, he has short hair and spirit, good facial features, and beautiful eyebrows. The eyes are shiny and attractive. Coupled with his figure and temperament, as well as his dress, he is properly rich and handsome among writers.
"Ouch, that's good."
Zhang Tan raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked out of the rental house. Walk towards the school.
……
The rental house is 500 meters away from the school, and there are tricycles driving around from time to time, pulling three or five students and their parents each time, and it is the beginning of the school year again.
Zhang Tan walked with his empty hands and figure-eight steps, without riding.
The return rate along the way is still very high.
There are people who don't know Zhang Tan, and when they see his chic dress, they will also take a second look.
People who know Zhang Tan but are not familiar with it will look at Zhang Tan with a smile.
And familiar classmates. When he was far away, he shouted, "Detective! Detective! ”
It's Cao Yuchuan.
The girl was carrying a schoolbag, carrying a camouflage bag, and dragging a suitcase in the other hand, and had just gotten off the minibus. After a summer vacation, I have gained a lot of weight, and the whole person still looks full of comics. A floral shirt on the upper body. The bottom button was so tight that it looked like it was about to burst when you followed.
In this stomach, I don't know how much fat I ate in a summer vacation.
"You've gained a lot of weight." Zhang Tan sighed.
"Is there one?" Cao Yuchuan was puzzled. Feel good about yourself, "It's okay." ”
What can Zhang Tan say, just say: "I'll get you a luggage." ”
"Okay, the big writer will help me carry my bag, hehe." Cao Yu said that he handed over the camouflage bag in his hand. This bag is more than fifty pounds.
Zhang Tan's face darkened, and he reached out and pulled the suitcase with wheels: "Are you so embarrassed?" ”
Cao Yuchuan pretended to be very weak and said, "Help me carry it, I'm tired to death." ”
"No-way, do you know what that means?"
After being rejected by Zhang Tan without hesitation, Cao Yuchuan didn't care. Soon carrying a big bag, he staggered to the school, and said as he walked: "Detective, you cow, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is going to be adapted into a TV series, and you won't tell us about it, adapt the TV series!" ”
"I only signed the contract during the summer vacation, so how can I tell you?"
"Then your "Legend of the Condor Heroes" sold so well, I didn't know before, I read the newspaper and said, you made tens of millions of dollars, aren't you, obedient, a multimillionaire is standing next to me, I really want to kidnap you." Cao Yuchuan screamed.
Zhang Tan shook his head calmly, crying a little: "Exaggerated, very exaggerated, it's just nonsense, I didn't make that much, one or two million." When the family buys a house and a car, it will be spent. ”
"One or two million, that's a lot, we may not be able to earn it in our lifetime."
"It's man-made, as long as you have the courage to break through, who can guarantee that you won't be able to earn a million or 10 million."
sent Cao Yuchuan's box to the dormitory, and the people he met along the way kept greeting him, and now they all know about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and they are all shouting for Zhang Tan to autograph. In the past, Zhang Tan could be said to be a campus figure, but now Zhang Tan has surpassed this status and risen to another realm.
It's completely like a giant panda in a zoo, and it's rare.
The atmosphere that Zhang Tan once tried to blend in was once again isolated, as if he was walking in a latitude far away from the campus. For this, Zhang Tan is also helpless, the best moment in life may be the moment when he first met.
"Maybe I should have said goodbye to Shuangdun Middle School a long time ago, right?"
Listening to his classmates talking to him, the tension, alienation, admiration, jealousy and other emotions in his tone made Zhang Tan have the illusion of being overwhelmed by the cold. Now Cao Yuchuan is left, and he can still give his classmates the feeling of getting along freely, and the other classmates are a lot more estranged.
Although Zhang Tan has always pursued a more free and easy life.
But it's really a little sad at the moment.
After staying in the dormitory for half an hour and rejecting his classmate's proposal to play cards, Zhang Tan paced out of the dormitory and walked towards the classroom. It was getting evening, and there were few people in the classroom because the class had not yet started.
Standing at the door, looking at the few classmates, immersed in the writing.
Zhang Tan smiled slightly and retreated.
At this moment, a lyric seemed to echo in his ears: "We are all in a constant hurry, forgetting the way out, seeking occasional satisfaction in disappointment." We are all freed from the suffering of wakefulness in our dreams, wandering in the lamplight. If you can't get to the end, go back to the original point and enjoy the endless road.
