According to Liu Chenyu's suggestion, it took three or four days of hard work for the water source of the river to be improved. Then he called Peng Min. As soon as the phone was connected, I heard Peng Min's crisp and urgent voice: "Mr. Jiang, are you finally willing to call me? If you don't call me again, I should take a plane tonight and go directly to Huai'an to find you! How about it, has the 80,000-word task been written?"

Jiang Shuiyuan touched his nose: "The writing is finished, but whether it is good or not, I dare not guarantee it." ”

"Just finish writing!" On the phone, Jiang Shuiyuan could hear Peng Min breathe a long sigh of relief, "As for the quality, I have always had 100 percent confidence in Mr. Jiang's writing and talent! You should know my email address, right? Please send me a copy, I want to have a sneak peek!"

Jiang Shuiyuan understands that although Peng Min says that she has 100% confidence in her writing and talent, she actually has no bottom in her heart. The so-called "sneak peek" is actually to check the quality of the work in advance. In the final analysis, she is just a department manager of Jinyi Clothing, and it is undoubtedly a huge risk for the leaders of the company to acquire the work of a middle school student who has just become a little famous at a high price of 2,500 yuan per thousand words. So even if Jiang Shuiyuan thought of her careful thoughts, he didn't think about it at all: "No problem, I'll send it right away." Manager Peng, if you have any comments after reading it, please contact me at any time, I will try my best to revise it!"

Peng Min laughed: "I'm just a little white-collar worker, if you want to talk about beauty salons, clothing matching, shaping and fitness, I can still say one, two, three, four." When you ask me what I think of literature, isn't that asking for a blind question?"

Jiang Shuiyuan said: "Just as you believe in my writing and talent, I also believe in Manager Peng's vision and ability!"

"Since you say so, I can't do it without giving my opinion. Well, I'll read it carefully, and if you have any ideas, I'll talk to you face to face tomorrow afternoon. ”

"Face-to-face communication?

"Yes, your book "Difficult History of Chinese Studies" has been printed, and the publishing house, our company, and your school want to jointly hold a launch ceremony. As the general coordinator, I naturally have to go over and prepare in advance. ”

"What? There is still going to be a launch ceremony?" Jiang Shuiyuan was shocked.

Although you may publish countless anthologies and academic monographs in the future, there is no doubt that this book will be the first step in your long march. Many years later, when you look back on your academic career, you will definitely use this as a starting point. At such an important moment, of course, a launch ceremony should be held to celebrate!"

"But I didn't know that before that!"

"I guess your school is afraid that it will affect your final exam, so it hasn't told you, right?"

Jiang Shuiyuan hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Can you not do that?"

"Of course not!" Peng Min replied categorically, "Let's not mention how the endorsement agreement signed at the beginning was stipulated, and what are the obligations of the image spokesperson, let's talk about why our company funded you to publish this book." Obviously, our brocade clothing is not the National Academic Works Publishing Funding Committee, nor is it a completely public welfare charity fund, the reason why you are funded to publish, is nothing more than to establish a positive image of the enterprise enthusiastic about public welfare and return to the society, but also to vigorously promote you as a spokesperson of the enterprise, so as to expand the popularity of the enterprise. Now that the book has been printed, but you don't want to hold the launch ceremony, what will you do with our company? How can I deal with this matter?"

Jiang Shuiyuan hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I was negligent and didn't take into account your company's position and interests!

"Where is the duty, what is the hard work?" Peng Min's voice finally returned to its previous ability, "But you don't have to worry too much, in addition to the leaders of the publishing house, our company executives and media reporters, most of the first ceremony are your acquaintances, such as Tong Tianshen, a famous Chinese educator and professor of the Department of Chinese of Peking Normal University, Ji Xunji Lao, a famous scholar and professor of Jinling University, Qiao Zhizhi Qiao Lao, a famous children's writer, Professor Cao Wenwen, Professor of the Department of Chinese at Aurora University, Professor Yan Kechuyan, Director of the Department of Chinese Language and Literature of Liangjiang Normal University, and the principal, teachers and students of your school, there is no need for anyone to deliberately pick and smash the field. ”

Jiang Shuiyuan said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of picking thorns and smashing the field, who made me young? I'm afraid that in the end it will not meet your expectations and make you disappointed." - By the way, did you invite Mr. Han Xianru, the former principal of Huai'an Provincial Normal School?"

Peng Min thought for a moment: "It doesn't seem to be." Why, do you want to invite him? If you want, I can contact him later. ”

Because in the process of writing the book, Mr. Han gave me a lot of help and guidance, and I was taught a lot, and it can even be said that Mr. Han laid the main structure of the book. Now that this book is fortunate to be published, it is natural to invite his old man to the scene. I'll have a gift for him then. ”

"Okay, I'll try to get Mr. Han. If you have anyone else to invite, you can make a list and give it to me tomorrow afternoon when we meet. ”

This is really a wave of unevenness. Jiang Shuiyuan thought that even if he understood a major event after writing a manuscript and sending it to Peng Min, he could spend a winter vacation in peace, but he didn't expect a launch ceremony to suddenly appear, it sounds like the posture is not small, the key is that he must participate, and it is not okay not to hold it. Jiang Shuiyuan is annoyed in his heart!

If you have something on your mind, you will easily lose sleep. Jiang Shuiyuan, who has always had a very regular schedule, tossed and turned in bed for more than half an hour and didn't fall asleep, and finally got up and did 100 push-ups before he could barely find a trace of sleepiness. Just when he was about to cultivate this trace of sleepiness into a prairie fire, the mobile phone suddenly rang, and when he took it over, Peng Min called.

Calling at eleven or twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Jiang Shuiyuan thought that something big had happened, and quickly connected the phone, and then heard Peng Min sobbing on the phone. He hurriedly asked, "Manager Peng, what's wrong with you?"

"I—I'm fine. Peng Min replied in a choked voice.

But listening to her sobbing and acquiring voice, it didn't look like she was fine. At that moment, Jiang Shuiyuan's mind suddenly flashed countless possible situations: the publishing house broke the contract, causing the book publication plan to run aground? The company's leaders changed their minds and canceled their endorsement contracts? Peng Min was fired from the company because of the book publication? Or was it the poor experience of Jinyi and clothing, and the capital chain was broken, which led to the company's collapse?......

It took a long time for Peng Min to stop crying and said softly: "I'm sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night." I'm calling you because I've just finished reading your novel, and what I want to tell you is that your novel is very, very good! ”

"I ——!" (To be continued.) )
