Chapter 65 Onboarding
Zheng Qian is very busy, and in the past two or three days, he really felt the workload of popular artists in advance.
In addition to "Poetry Conference", "Rainbow Choir" and personal interviews with Beijing Music Radio, he also worked with the commercial performance manager in the middle of the process, and performed six consecutive performances in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, including the opening ceremony of the real estate, the second wedding celebration of the rich, and some corporate evening activities, etc., in two or three days, the pre-tax income of 300,000 yuan was steadily received.
In fact, the performance is not tiring, what is tiring is the process of going to the performance venue.
But the labor fee is a lot of money, which also makes Zheng Qian painful and happy.
But he also understood a profound truth.
A person's time is limited, and the future business must be as high-end as possible......
Today, Zheng Qian packed up his personal image, took the recruitment notice letter of the Air Politics Art Troupe, and went to the West Third Ring Road of Haidian early in the morning to start reporting.
He first filled in the information at the military service club in the guest house, and then received two sets of his dark blue military uniforms, one a beret and the other an officer's cap, which looked quite magnificent.
Subsequently, an officer named Yang Hongyi of the Air Politics Art Troupe enthusiastically took Zheng Qian to the unit for physical examination, went through the entry procedures, the process was very efficient, during which he specially changed into a military uniform in order to take pictures, a dark blue air force uniform, a golden wheat ribbon hanging on the chest, the logo of the epaulettes on both sides is golden yellow and inlaid with a blue trim on behalf of the Air Force, and the bottom of the epaulette is decorated with a blue thin bar and a star emblem.
It still feels relatively empty when you look at it, and if it is a major general, it will be more abundant.
Because he is a civilian ninth-level cadre, he has no military rank, but Zheng Qian still enjoys the treatment of a second lieutenant, if he wants to be promoted, the easiest way is to boil his qualifications, it only takes three years for a second lieutenant to be promoted to lieutenant, and each promotion in the future is four years, until the colonel, during which if there is meritorious service or other major commendations, the number of years of promotion can be reduced.
The promotion of a colonel to a major general is a selective promotion, and the major general is awarded the title of the Ministry of State.
Before noon, Zheng Qian's certificate had already been made.
The office building of the art troupe has a total of four floors, Yang Hongyi took Zheng Qian to visit around, and the grandeur of the imagination is different, it looks a little shabby here, it is a little stronger than the street office, and the office buildings hidden in the streets and alleys are also very inconspicuous, and the black and white signs at the door are also very simple, if you don't have an acquaintance to introduce you, it's easy for people to ignore here.
Yang Hongyi saw Zheng Qian's doubts, and said with a smile: "Brother, the major art troupes are basically like this, civilian cadres have been promoted quickly, which is eye-catching, and it is not good to be low-key." ”
Zheng Qian has heard of this, many civilian cadres are easy to win awards in many professional events during their service, and the upgrade speed is the same as that of rockets, which is very criticized, and the military rank of civilian cadres was canceled many years ago, and only enjoy administrative treatment, and later in order to avoid suspicion, the major art troupes faced dissolution several times, but within a few days, the major art troupes were reorganized with the support of the military.
The criticism of the outside world is criticism, they are standing and talking without backache, the training of the major military regions is originally high-intensity and anti-pressure, and spiritual life is just needed, so the art troupe can never be canceled.
"We lead the art troupe belonging to the Air Force, and we have an exclusive big theater stage, and we can go there if we need to rehearse for performance tasks. ”
Yang Hongyi said with a smile: "Brother, our group is relatively free, there is no need to end it like that, Mr. Wei said, your personal schedule is relatively busy, so except for major festivals, the group will not arrange performance tasks for you......"
Zheng Qian learned about it, only to know that the General Political Department will arrange fixed KPI performance tasks for major art troupes every year, and each art troupe has no more than 100 active staff, like Kong Zheng, a art troupe that has just been adapted and rebuilt by the song and dance troupe, has fewer people, only fifty or sixty people, but there are very few people like Wei Yehong, who are popular in half the entertainment industry, so there are many civilian cadres who still prefer to accept performance tasks, because they can get more bonuses and subsidies.
According to Yang Hongyi, Zheng Qian will have a major performance on the Dragon Boat Festival next month, at that time, the cadres of the entire art troupe need to be mobilized to complete the festival condolence performances at the seven air bases within three days.
Zheng Qian was very conscious of this and agreed to it.
After visiting the office building of the art troupe, Zheng Qian left, in fact, during the visit, he saw a total of no more than ten employees of the unit, it is obvious that when there is no task, everyone is busy with their own work.
When he left the art troupe, Zheng Qian's regular air force uniform had not yet been taken off, and he was caught back by Yang Hongyi and admonished: "Brother, there is one thing I want to make clear to you, when you don't usually go on a mission, remember not to walk around in your regular uniform, so as not to cause a bad impact." ”
When Zheng Qian heard this, he patted his forehead and hurriedly changed back into what he was wearing.
Just wearing that dark blue military uniform, although handsome, handsome and chic, and very visually impactful, but really too eye-catching, this is actually similar to other public institutions, such as some subway department personnel, etc., when going to work, they are required to wear overalls, take the subway after work, and it is strictly forbidden to wear overalls to walk around.
Next, after leaving the art troupe, Zheng Qian took a taxi back to the apartment, ready to put the formalities and regular clothes home, and then went to the company.
Just as he was opening the door, a greeting came from behind him.
"Hello, is Mr. Zheng Qian Zheng at home?"
Zheng Qian turned his head and saw a blonde foreigner and a middle-aged man wearing heavy myopic glasses looking at him, and it was the man with glasses who spoke.
Zheng Qian was a little strange: "I am Zheng Qian, who are you?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man with glasses was a little surprised: "Are you Zheng Qian? This little comrade, you're not joking, are you...... Huh?"
"I'm Zheng Qian!"
Zheng Qian was puzzled, he lowered his head and rummaged in the Chinese bag in his hand for a while, took out the document that had just been hotly baked, and held it up for the other party to see.
The latter saw the young man wearing the officer's hat in the document, and then looked at Zheng Qian, a little puzzled, and then his eyes moved down and saw the name in the document - Zheng Qian!
"Are you really Zheng Qian? Are you the author of "The Three-Body Problem"?"
At this moment, Zhang Hanting was already shocked, the author of "The Three-Body Problem" was so young, and he was still an officer? Oh, yes, the description of the Red Bank Project in the book was so professional and meticulous, it seemed that it was really practiced.
Probably a military family?
"Hello Mr. Zheng, I'm Zhang Hanting, the editor-in-chief of Science Fiction World!"
Zhang Hanting was a little excited, and stepped forward to shake Zheng Qian's hand: "I really didn't expect Mr. Zheng to be so young, he is really young and promising, oh yes, this is Stephen, who has just joined the American "National Geographic" magazine as the editor-in-chief, and he came to China this time to talk to you about the overseas translation copyright of "The Three-Body Problem". ”
Stephen took out his work card and showed it to Zheng Qian, and then stepped forward with a smile to shake hands, "Mr. Zheng, it's amazing, you are so young, I'm really happy to see you, my name is Stephen King, I am the editor-in-chief of National Geographic magazine, I am very keen to read your "Three-Body Problem", and I have become a fan of yours......"
Zheng Qian is also a little happy, being a great writer has always been one of his dreams!
Now that the two editors-in-chief are standing in front of him like this, he did not slack off, and hurriedly invited two distinguished guests to the door when he opened the door.

Thanks to the seemingly impure 1,000 book coins for the reward, and thanks to the 500 book coins for the military and state affairs
