Chapter 757: Adapted From Real Events (22)
Early in the morning, Xiaobai was going to school. Zhang Tan made her breakfast. After she finished eating, he handed her schoolbag to her, helped her put it on her back, patted her on the shoulder, and encouraged her: "Study hard, the holiday is coming soon, stand your last shift, don't slack off."
After Malanhua left, no one could control Xiaobai.
Bai Jianping? It was useless.
Zhang Tan could only persuade her with kind words and set an example by getting up early with her, eating breakfast on time, and sending her to kindergarten.
"Bye~~~~Boss Zhang!"
When they arrived at the kindergarten, Xiaobai's morning mood finally disappeared, and she returned to her lively and energetic appearance. She waved goodbye to Zhang Tan and ran into the kindergarten facing the rising sun.
Zhang Tan came to Pujiang Zhongcheng Film Company today. The film "The Sound of the Wind" is about to be finished and will be finished today. As he said to Xiaobai, he came to stand his last shift.
The first screenwriter of the crew of "The Sound of Wind" is Zhang Ling, Xu Shufei is his assistant, and there was originally another Zhao Lin, but Zhao Lin was transferred by Zhang Tan to be responsible for the animation project of "The Longest Day in Chang'an" not long ago.
Xu Shufei was very active in the crew that day, busy up and down, he was very talkative, and had his own views on things.
Zhang Tan knew that Xu Shufei was stimulated. Zhao Lin, who joined the crew with him, had been sent out to take charge of one thing, but he failed to go further. This made him, who was very ambitious, very disappointed, and at the same time felt a huge driving force.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon of that day, the film "The Sound of Wind" was officially completed. Amid cheers, everyone in the crew simply packed up their things and had a closing banquet at the hotel in the evening.
These big guys in the crew stayed here first, under the care of a special person, and would be sorted and moved out tomorrow.
At the closing banquet, the general manager of Zhongcheng Company also arrived, drank one cup after another with Zhang Tan, and talked to him a lot. The meaning was nothing more than one, that is, to win him over and let him join the company to work together.
Zhang Tan took the opportunity to chat with Zhang Ling. After the project is over, he will give Zhang Ling a holiday to spend time with his family. This is also his own request.
Since joining the crew of "The Sound of Wind", he has been very busy and has not had a day off, including weekends and holidays.
Zhao Lin also came. He has already started the adaptation work of "The Longest Day in Chang'an". He usually works in the Little Red Horse Studio. If necessary, he will go to the Pujiang Film Studio for communication and docking.
When Xu Shufei and Zhao Lin toasted, he was quite emotional. He was happy for Zhao Lin's progress. The two are both competitors and good friends. In general, Xu Shufei agrees that Zhao Lin can be promoted.
"Don't worry. After this project is over, take a good rest for a while. There will be a new project soon. You and Zhang Ling will come together at that time." Zhang Tan said to Xu Shufei alone.
Xu Shufei was in high spirits, clinked glasses with him and said, "Thank you, boss."
A few days later, Ding Jiamin called Zhang Tan and told him that Zheng Youmin's affairs had been basically investigated.
"What Pan Xiangyi said is basically true. Zheng Youmin did not make money from selling those fake drugs, so he did not do it for the sake of making money." Ding Jiamin said.
Zhang Tan sighed: "It's true."
Zheng Youmin looks like a street vendor, but you can't judge a person by his appearance. He is so emotional and does things so uprightly, which is much better than many guys who are well-dressed and sanctimonious.
"Since he didn't do it for the sake of making money, can he be acquitted?" Zhang Tan asked.
Ding Jiamin shook her head and said: "No, although he didn't do it for the sake of making money, the nature of smuggling and selling drugs will not change."
"Is that so? What is the possible result?"
"Maybe a sentence of 3-5 years."
Such a person should not be treated like this.
Zhang Tan couldn't help but think of a movie in his previous life, "Dying to Survive", which has a very similar plot.
"Can you take out the file? I'll study it." Zhang Tan said.
Ding Jiamin was very embarrassed, so Zhang Tan asked her to report to the director and let the director decide.
Ding Jiamin thought of the director's special instructions that day, and tried her best to cooperate with Zhang Tan. If she was really unsure, she would report to him and he would make the decision.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll report now."
Ding Jiamin hung up the phone, went to the director's office, knocked on the door, and was invited in.
"Is there anything?"
"Zhang Tan wants to see Zheng Youmin's file."
The director looked over with a scrutinizing look and asked, "What does he want to do?"
Ding Jiamin thought for a while and said, "I told him about Zheng Youmin's story. He thought this person was very admirable and should not be sentenced, so he wanted to help him and study his file to find a breakthrough."
The director was silent. When Ding Jiamin thought he disagreed, the director said, "Give him a copy. To be honest, I admire Zheng Youmin's behavior. I have the same opinion as Zhang Tan. Such a person should not end up like this. Maybe he is not legal, but it is absolutely reasonable. We are police officers. We only manage what we should manage, but we are happy to provide help within our ability. Give it to him and say that I allow it."
Ding Jiamin was stunned. He didn't expect that the usually very serious director would say this. He was very shocked.
After Zhang Tan got the file, he immediately hired a lawyer.
This is a barrister from the best law firm in Pujiang. After reading Zheng Youmin's case file, he became very interested, not only because his employer was Zhang Tan, but also because this case was very interesting. If handled well, it would become a typical case of their law firm and even cause a good social response.
"Mr. Zhang, we have accepted this case. From a preliminary point of view, I agree with your opinion. Zheng Youmin actually has a great chance of being innocent. I will go back to gather people to discuss the details."
"Okay, then I'll trouble Lawyer Zhan."
After Zhang Tan sent him away, Pan Xiangyi was very grateful to him. She didn't expect Zhang Tan to help her so much and invite a lawyer from Pujiang Law Firm.
This kind of lawyer is not only expensive, but even if he has money, he can't be called at any time. It often takes a long time in advance to make an appointment.
"You're welcome. You heard it too. Lawyer Zhan said there is a good chance of being innocent. We can leave it to him with confidence. Just cooperate with him during this period. Don't worry too much." Zhang Tan comforted.
Pan Xiangyi is just an ordinary office worker with average family conditions. She didn't know how to thank Zhang Tan for such a great help.
"I don't know how to thank you."
She was even a little panicked. She always felt uneasy when he helped her for no reason. If Zhang Tan wanted something or had a request, she would feel more at ease.
Zhang Tan obviously thought of this and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not helping you for no reason. In fact, I want to write a script about your husband's deeds to see if it can be made into a movie. This requires your consent."
"Ah? Script? Movie?" Pan Xiangyi's brain was a little slow.
"Yes, I am a screenwriter. I think your husband's story is a very good subject and very realistic. So I want to write such a script and adapt it according to his real deeds. Do you agree? If you agree, then I will support this case. I dare not guarantee that your husband can be safe and sound, but there is still some confidence. You also heard what Lawyer Zhan said just now. I will do my best."
Pan Xiangyi was stunned, and suddenly covered her face and cried, crying and thanking repeatedly.
