Chapter 3267 Preparing for Charity Activities

Chapter 3267 Preparing for Charity Activities

The box office of "Miss Zhao's Family" has skyrocketed. In just two weeks, the cumulative box office has exceeded 5 million yuan, and this number is still updating at an astonishing rate.

As a low-budget art film with a production cost of only 2300 million, its return on investment is nothing short of miraculous.

The industry was shaken, and the media flocked to report on it, but inside Little Red Horse Academy, they seemed to know nothing about it and no one cared about box office numbers at all!

The only person who cares about the box office is Liu Liu, but since the box office has nothing to do with her and she won't get any money, she doesn't really care.

That evening, Tan Jin'er brought Xi'er and Robin to Little Red Horse Academy. She found Xiao Bai and said she wanted to discuss something with him.

"Why don't you go and call Liuliu and Xiaomi to come along too? We can go to the reading area over there," Tan Jin'er said.

Xiao Bai didn't know why Sister Jin'er wanted to see them, but she still went and called her group of girlfriends over. The group sat down in the reading area.

Tan Jin'er said, "I called everyone here to tell you some good news! Our Little Red Horse Charity Foundation previously invested in 'Miss Zhao's Family,' and now that the movie is a huge success, our foundation will receive a lot of dividends!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone present gasped in surprise.

"Wow!!!"

"Really? So much money?"

"I'm rich, I'm rich!!"

Liuliu was the first to jump up, her eyes shining, as if she could see countless snacks beckoning to her.

Although Xiaobai was also happy, she was relatively calm and tugged at Liuliu's sleeve: "Liuliu, sit down and listen to what Sister Jin'er has to say."

She then asked Tan Jin'er how much money the Little Red Horse Charity Foundation had invested.

Tan Jin'er said, "I have invested 20%."

Liu Liu asked, "Why isn't it a 100% stake?"

Before Tan Jin'er could answer, Dudu said, "Liuliu, don't interrupt. How could it be 100%? Boss Zhang and President Yu also invested. Without their investment, where would the movie come from?"

Liu Liu chuckled: "I know, I know, I was just joking to lighten the mood."

Tan Jin'er said with a smile, "This money isn't for us personally. The Little Red Horse Charity Foundation was established with the aim of helping more children in need. So, our foundation's board of directors held a meeting and decided to use most of this dividend to plan a special charity event!"

Xi'er was the first to raise her hand and said, "Charity activities? Is it doing good deeds? I like participating in charity activities, sister, I want to participate!"

Tan Jin'er nodded and said, "Yes, Xi'er is right, it's about doing good deeds. This time we want to make it bigger and more meaningful. We plan to join forces with several special education schools in Pujiang to organize a 'Spring Dandelion' themed charity event."

Xiaomi asked curiously what the event was like.

Tan Jin'er looked at the materials she had brought and gave them a detailed introduction.

Simply put, this charity event consists of three parts:

First, we planned an accessible arts experience day. We set up accessible pathways and provided guidance at the Pujiang Cultural Center, inviting visually and hearing impaired children to experience painting, music, and theatrical performances.

Secondly, donations were made to prepare for the establishment of children's dream reading corners. A large number of Braille books, large-print books, tactile picture books, and audiobooks suitable for children with special needs were purchased and donated to the special reading rooms of participating schools and the city library, and named "Little Red Horse Children's Dream Reading Corner".

Third is the "Star Partner" pairing program. Children from Little Red Horse Academy and mainstream schools are encouraged to form "Star Partner" relationships with children from special schools, building long-term friendships and mutual support through letters, online communication, or regular visits.

After hearing this, Xiaobai immediately agreed, "Wow! That's great! We can play with them, teach them to draw, and let them listen to music!"

Xi'er eagerly raised her hand, her eyes sparkling: "I want to be a star companion!"

Dudu said earnestly, "I can teach hearing-impaired children sign language songs, or exercise with them."

Liuliu said, "We can have a tug-of-war!! And play soccer too!!"

Dudu said, "Tug-of-war is fine, but soccer is not, because some of them can't see it."

Liuliu said, "If a small boat can do it, why can't they?"

Xiaomi thought for a moment and said, "Donating books is a good idea. Knowledge can change destiny and bring them happiness."

Although Chengcheng didn't talk much, her eyes were focused, and she was clearly thinking about what she could do.

Xiao Zhou was also invited, as he was more qualified to speak on the matter. After listening to Tan Jin'er's plan, a warm smile appeared on his face, and he said, "This will be a great encouragement and joy for us, just like when we watched the movie last time."

Liuliu perked up, but her focus was a little off: "Then I want to be the event ambassador! I'm Da Yanyan, I'll host the opening ceremony! I'll also perform! Sing! Dance! I guarantee I'll make the place rock!"

Xiao Bai immediately poured cold water on her idea: "Liu Liu, don't even think about it! Charity activities are about helping others, not about you showing off! You can perform, but you have to follow the instructions!"

"Oh, Xiaobai, you really spoil the fun!" Liuliu said with dissatisfaction.

Xiao Bai said, "It's not that I'm not letting you perform. You can perform, but you have to follow the instructions."

Xiaomi laughed and said, "Actually, we still really need Liuliu's performance. Liuliu is very energetic and can liven up the atmosphere. Liuliu, you should think carefully about what to perform."

Liu Liu laughed heartily, praising Xiaomi for being knowledgeable, unlike some people.

Little White chuckled, making Liu Liu's heart pound with unease.

In the following days, under Tan Jin'er's leadership, Xiaobai and her team actively engaged in the preparation of the charity event.

Xiaobai demonstrated her organizational skills, coordinating her friends to form groups responsible for different aspects, and even getting Chengcheng involved in designing simple and fun craft activities for the "Accessible Art Experience Day".

As expected, Liuliu was assigned an important "guest performer" role. She was determined to perform well and no longer just thought about being silly. Instead, she seriously rehearsed a program with Dudu and Xier that combined simple sign language and cheerful dance.

Dudu uses her athletic talent and patience to design tactile games and small-scale sports interactions suitable for visually impaired children.

Xi'er and Xiao Weiwei used their affability to design contact cards and icebreaker games for the "Star Partners".

Xiaomi and Chengcheng were responsible for partially selecting the reading corner's book list, choosing heartwarming, healing, and positive stories.

Xiao Zhou became an important advisor, offering many valuable suggestions for improvement on the event's flow and details based on his own experience, such as how to make the guidance clearer and how to make the audio descriptions more accurate.

In addition, Xiao Zhou has also prepared a performance. He plays the harmonica very well and will play a song with Liu Liu.

Seeing this, Zhang Tan exchanged a smile with Tan Jin'er. Sure enough, Xiao Bai and the others were very interested in these activities and were all very enthusiastic.
