Chapter 15: The Taste of Home

He returned to his desk.

Open the backpack that you are carrying in the future tense, take out your notebook, and start coding words every day.

Seeing that Xiao Ran was so calm, Xiao Liu spread his head and leaned towards Uncle Zhang, and whispered: "I feel that Xiao Ran is still in a very good state today, at least not as sad as we thought." ”

Yan Li has a good appearance and strong ability to work openly, and he is a goddess-level status in the hearts of many people, but being abandoned by such a goddess, they feel that Xiao Ran must be uncomfortable in his heart.

However, he didn't seem to have a sloppy image or a hangover, but he could still greet them with a smile, which surprised the two of them and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ran, this kid is still a hard breed, and his psychological tolerance is quite strong.

......

Time flies really fast, and it's time to get off work at noon in a blink of an eye.

After packing up his things and preparing to go home, the mobile phone he put in his hand rang, Xiao Ran picked it up and saw that it was actually sent by Liu Min.

Liu Min: Hello Mr. Xiao, our company's finance has transferred the money to your account, please confirm it.

Liu Min got up early in the morning and was busy with this, she originally gave little, if the money was not given in time, she was really embarrassed, after all, this is her favorite author.

Seeing the message, Xiao Ran hurriedly quit WeChat.

I clicked on the text message, and sure enough, there was a message from ICBC: the balance of your card account with the tail number 3045 was 279.54320,00 yuan, and the time was eleven o'clock in the morning.

The said good 2.9 million became 2.79 million, and the rest of the money should be directly deducted from taxes, which Xiao Ran still understands.

But to be honest, looking at the balance of nearly 2.8 million, Xiao Ran was still a little excited.

After all, with money, you can change your own house!

A new environment, a new beginning.

It's like some people have to get a haircut when they break up, it's a truth.

He quickly replied to Liu Min's message.

Xiao Ran: Thank you, if you don't remind me, I really didn't pay attention.

Liu Min: You're welcome, these are all things I should do, by the way, Mr. Xiao Ran, I forgot to introduce to you, I am the screenwriter of iDomain, so for this book, maybe some things need to be changed a little bit.

Liu Min: Of course, it's definitely not that you write badly, in fact, every novel that changes TV will be more or less slightly modified, after all, TV dramas, this thing is for the public, maybe there are minors watching, can you understand what I say?

Liu Min was worried that Xiao Ran would object, so she said it very carefully.

In fact, from the reader's point of view, she thinks that this book is really well written, and she will not lose its original flavor if she changes it a little more.

But there is no way, I am a screenwriter not an author, Xiao Ran's writing is really good, especially the commercial part.

But some of these operations cannot be passed on to the audience.

The on-screen experience needs to be within the scope of her consideration.

What's more, she actually has a bold idea, which is to use this drama as next year's New Year's drama.

Such an important thing really can't tolerate a little slip-up.

However, she ignored one point, in fact, Xiao Ran is not a glass-hearted person, he understands Liu Min's approach very well, and many plots have been changed in the books of the great gods, not to mention his own?

Xiao Ran: Of course there is no problem, I understand!

To put it bluntly, they are also to ensure the ratings, with a copyright fee of 2.9 million, plus the star's salary, props fee, and staff salary, these alone are a huge expense.

After investing so much money, it is natural to be attentive.

Seeing Xiao Ran's news, Liu Min at the desk breathed a sigh of relief.

Leaned back on the back of the seat, to be honest, she was really worried that Xiao Ran would not agree.

I've been doing this for ten years, and she's met too many wonderful authors, some of them don't write well, people are very high, and they think that what they are is art, and others feel that they are trampling on art, in fact, it's bullshit!

I didn't expect Xiao Ran to be so easy to talk to, and he didn't have a frame at all.

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up with approval.

Sure enough, it's the author I like, and the character is as good as the book!

Liu Min: Thank you, Mr. Xiao, then let's make an appointment at noon tomorrow, how do you see it, and then we can talk in detail.

She has already thought about it, if Xiao Ran can rewrite something better and more suitable for the screen on this basis, she can also apply again and let Xiao Ran be an assistant screenwriter, as for the salary, she will definitely not disappoint him.

Xiao Ran blinked, if it was noon tomorrow, he might have to ask for a leave.

He hesitated, but replied: No problem!

Liu Min: By the way, Mr. Xiao, have you prepared a new book, there has been a shortage of books recently [playful]

To tell the truth, she thinks Xiao Ran's writing is really good, and there has been a shortage of books recently, so she asked more.

Xiao Ran: I'm writing it, and I'll send out a book in the afternoon. But you can keep reading it, after all, it's only 10,000 words, and the new book period is basically 4,000 a day, a lot of reading and mocking me, and the face hasn't come up yet, and the book is finished.

Liu Min: It's okay, 4,000 is 4,000, good books are not afraid to wait, looking forward to Mr. Xiao's new book.

Liu Min can be said to be really full of expectations for Xiao Ran's books, an old bookworm like her for more than ten years, has high requirements for her works, plus she is usually busy, and she has little time to read, 4,000 words, which is just right for her.

......

After communicating with Liu Min, Xiao Ran was not idle, and rode his little electric donkey to an intermediary company downstairs.

Let the agency help him evaluate his current house.

The agent gave a mixed answer, because of the general rise in housing prices in the past two years, Xiao Ran's house can now be sold for at least seven million.

After all, the area is large, and it is still a duplex, which is much higher than the price of a new house.

But the bad news is, have to wait!

After all, if you have a second-hand house, you have to be a little Buddha, and to put it bluntly, it depends on luck.

You must know that the houses in Shanghai are not very easy to sell, after all, they are really expensive, and it is basically impossible to sell them in a short time.

This means that if you want to make a down payment on a new house now, there is only one way to borrow money.

Half a million is not a small amount.

Xu Cheng's hot pot restaurant is losing money, and if he wants to borrow money, it is estimated that only Zhang Chuan is there.

Don't look at Zhang Chuan as an IT dog, but he has been greedy for darkness all these years, but in fact, he has not made less money.

In addition, his parents are out of town, and they give him money every once in a while, so this product should have some money.

Asking him to borrow is the best option.

Give him a call when he's off work.

I came home with a heavy heart.

As soon as I opened the door, I smelled a fragrance, and the pepper pot was accompanied by a rich aroma of meat, and the smell went straight to the nose.

The girl's main dish today is stir-fried pork, and it took her two hours to make it well.

I've watched the video countless times alone, and when I cut the chili peppers, it's even spicy to the eyes, but the eyes still dare to feel hot.

Hearing the knock on the door, the girl who was serving the meal couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, are you back?" ”

"Well, I'm back."

After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he naturally changed his shoes and walked towards the restaurant.

To tell the truth, in the past three years of marriage, basically Yan Li is rarely at home, and Yan Xici is too, and he basically eats in the canteen at noon.

So the house was always deserted, and he always felt that something was missing in this house.

But today, after he smelled the rich aroma of food, for the first time, he had this real feeling of being home.
