Chapter 76 A man's enthusiasm is really for whom
In order to get off work on time at night and go to see Han Lu with Chu Qingchuan, my efficiency this day was very high.
After Song Fangfei and Xia Xue's first draft was handed over to me, it gave me a headache for half an hour.
It's not that they don't write well, but they don't understand the spiritual connotation of the theme I curate at all.
I called them over, showed them what I had written, and asked them to talk about their thoughts.
Song Fangfei's sarcasm is naturally indispensable, and by the way, I refuted my article, Xia Xue couldn't say too much, I understood that she didn't understand my thoughts.
How do I make them know exactly what I want?
I felt the urge to write all by myself, and after counting to ten, I calmed down.
"You guys go back first, and then I'll make corrections and annotations on the article. I rubbed my temples.
Song Fangfei left proudly, but Xia Xue didn't.
She was quite self-motivated and asked me why my articles felt more progressive than hers, and I felt like I was pulling onions layer by layer.
It's really a word to wake up the person in the dream, I don't know how to express this feeling, Xia Xue actually made a visual metaphor for me.
"Thank you, Xiaoxue! Haha, afternoon tea please. "I immediately figured out how to revise their drafts.
I remember when I was in school, I was able to do some of the topics on my own, but when my classmates asked for explanations, I couldn't express my ideas clearly.
In the workplace, it is important to express your ideas clearly and make them easy to accept, to know not only what it is but also why, to be able to write but also to explain why you write it, and to convince others to recognize you.
I had a lot to learn, and I became more aware of the crisis and the sense of urgency.
In the afternoon, I finished writing the first draft of Li Yutong's interview, carefully checked it, sent it to Manager Liang's mailbox, and notified him by phone.
I was extremely careful about every step of this interview.
The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, probably because I have been plotted a lot, I am too cautious now, and I always feel that Li Yutong will wait for me somewhere to jump into the pit.
I ordered a takeout of coffee and asked Xia Xue to drink it.
The company has staff rest areas, which are warmly furnished, but few people actually go over to rest and move.
News of sudden deaths of employees on the Internet is not uncommon, and the intensity and resilience of my work after coming to AC are even more different from those in Jiang Haocheng.
Xia Xue quietly told me that Song Fangfei spoke ill of me at other colleagues, and even said that I had seduced Sinan before I took the position of secretary to the editor-in-chief.
"Jiaoyang, Fang Fei actually asked me to introduce my brother to her, I really didn't expect that she was such a person. Xia Xue said with a disgusted face.
"I can't see that you're hiding it, Xiaoxue. "I'm kidding her.
Xia Xue smiled embarrassedly: "Jiaoyang, my brother happened to be eating nearby that day, so he said that we would go home together." Actually, I don't like to let people know about my situation, I don't want to rely on my family, otherwise I will never know what level of my ability is. ”
Instead of asking her about her background, I talked to her: "People can't decide where they come from, and when you're capable enough, you'll appreciate it, because it gives you an advantage over others to achieve your dreams." While ordinary people are still worried about money and connections, you can already start to make a big difference.
In fact, the current rich second generation has very few gentlemen, and many of them even work harder than ordinary people. Innate advantages and acquired struggle, so we can only look at it. ”
Isn't Chu Jingnan just that? No matter how scummy he is, I have to admit that he is excellent in ability. But to turn the tide, one person's ability is limited after all.
I thought of Jiang Haocheng again, he is actually a very hard person, and what outsiders see in their eyes is only the appearance.
Xia Xue looked at me in a daze: "Jiaoyang, do you really think so? When I used to say this to others, some people would say that I was pretending, and some people encouraged me, but you were the first to say this to me." No wonder your articles are readable, you're really good at spotting points that others can't. ”
"Haha, why are you still praising me around the corner, you can't see that you are such a Xia Xue. "Hearing her praise like this, I made no secret of my feelings.
"I'm telling the truth, Sunshine. Do you think I'm stupid?" Xia Xue asked me seriously.
"Nope. I answered without hesitation, and together with her, I analyzed my own strengths and weaknesses, and by the way, talked about myself.
We all learned a lot after this conversation.
There are many differences between oneself in the eyes of others and oneself in one's own eyes.
I need an ally or two, someone I can trust.
Xia Xue is a very good choice, her family background is destined that she will not defect because of interests, and her temperament is honest and kind.
When I realized what I was thinking, I felt a little scary, but after thinking about it, I realized that I wasn't trying to take advantage of others, so I settled down.
I'm afraid that I have changed my original intention in the open and secret struggle, and I am even more afraid that I will become a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals.
An hour before I got off work, I received feedback from Manager Liang.
As I expected, the manuscript was in the red, with all sorts of non-professional criticisms and comments almost filling the review bar on the right.
I knew at a glance that it came from Li Yutong's brain, and she could always give people a sense of déjà vu that there were no silver taels here.
Is this a superpower?
The interview I carefully conceived was like my own flesh and blood, and of course I would not be happy if it was disproved for nothing.
If it is revised according to Li Yutong's opinion, this interview will become an advertorial that is praised throughout and deliberately elevates the theoretical height.
There are two kinds of advertisements, hard and advertorial, just look at the name, one is blunt and straightforward, and the other is euphemistic and subtle.
However, neither of these two methods can appear in the interview column, because the readability is not strong, so I can't change it according to Li Yutong's requirements.
Advertising and sponsorship are the business of the marketing department, and the planning department, editorial department, and design department will assist them in formulating the customer's publicity plan.
Regardless of the company, the marketing and sales department is the dominant and overwhelming, because they are the vanguard of breaking new ground and the direct source of performance.
Therefore, the right to speak of our editors will be suppressed by the sales department many times.
No, I received a call from Ma Tao, the deputy manager of the sales department, before I got off work, and I knew that the Rubik's Cube was the customer he had been targeting.
"Cheng Jiaoyang? Rubik's Cube complained to me, saying that your professional ability is not good? Do you know that our contract with the Rubik's Cube is about to expire, how can you renew the contract like this?" Ma Tao came up and reprimanded me with a slap in the face, although he was cross-departmental, he was still my superior.
"Manager Ma, our editorial department also has its own rules and working principles. If it is revised according to Miss Li's opinion, the interview will become an advertorial, which does not meet the positioning and section requirements of the magazine. "I stand by my principles.
"Do you dare to argue with me as an assistant editor? I think Sinan is now less and less concerned about our marketing department! Well, if the advertising contract of the Rubik's Cube in the next year is snatched away by a competitor, this responsibility will be borne by your editorial department. Ma Tao spoke like a machine gun, aggressive.
"Manager Ma, don't be angry. As you know, although the praise of the interview is not high enough, from the perspective of the professional field, it is actually more favored by collectors and industry insiders than the advertorial, and it is also more readable. I'll change it again tonight and send it to Miss Li tomorrow. "I don't want to cause trouble for Sinan, and my tone is extremely humble.
"Write well! Don't let people call me again. Ma Tao finished speaking angrily and hung up the phone.
Your sister. I'm so angry.
Li Yutong is really uncomfortable rhythm when I don't feel sick for a day, is she so idle?
I clicked on the keyboard and was finally feeling better. As a result, when Sinan came out of the office, he squinted and kept looking at my hands.
"Mr. Si, is there anything you need?" I hurriedly stood up, revealing a standard eight-tooth smile.
"How's the topic going?" he asked.
"I'm preparing, the first draft is not ideal, and it's still being revised. I replied.
Sinan's expression darkened: "Show me tomorrow morning, if you don't even feel like you can do it, don't come." ”
After saying that, he left, and I realized that ten minutes had passed since I got off work.
This is clearly the rhythm that makes me work overtime at night, and I really want to die.
However, after a while, I received another text message from Sinan, who asked me to order a bouquet of red roses to be delivered to his office tomorrow.
Hey, I didn't expect this cold-blooded animal to have such a riotous heart? It seems that the enthusiasm of men is really right for whom.
I was about to go to the flower shop, ordered roses, and bought a bunch of camellia for Han Lu.
Chu Qingchuan was waiting for me at the gate of the hospital, and when I saw him from afar, I felt that the bad luck of the day had been left behind.
But worse things are waiting for me.
When Han Lu saw me and Chu Qingchuan appear at the door of the ward together, her originally bright smile froze for a second, and then became gentle and reserved.
She seemed to struggle to get up, and I hurriedly stepped forward to support her, but I didn't let Chu Qingchuan do it.
"Sunshine, thank you for coming to see me. I told Harukawa not to tell you, you see that he is really disobedient and makes you worried. Her tone was full of apologies, making me feel as if Chu Qingchuan had really done something wrong.
I glanced at Chu Qingchuan, who was placing flowers on the table at the head of the bed.
"Han Lu, I couldn't contact Qingchuan and lost his temper with him, so he told me that you are sick and take care of you here, if you want to blame me. I laughed and asked her if she was feeling better.
Han Lu probably thought that Chu Qingchuan didn't explain the truth to me, saying that it was dizziness and anemia, and he was already much better.
I didn't expose her, I don't want people to know about this disease, and it's understandable.
"You see that after you came to Jiangcheng, we haven't had a chance to sit together and chat, and when you are discharged from the hospital, I will take you around and taste the food here, okay?" Because of Chu Qingchuan, I decided to spend a day with Han Lu.
"Okay, great. Qingchuan has been taking care of me like my brother, and I can't wait to meet you when I hear that he has a new girlfriend. He has a smile on his face every time he mentions you in front of me. He also said that he didn't expect to cross paths with you again when he grew up. When Han Lu talked about me and Chu Qingchuan, her tone was excited.
I wondered how she reacted, and although she said it in a gentle tone, I always felt that some words were used deliberately.
However, Chu Qingchuan obviously regarded this as the best example of negating my previous suspicions.
"Now that I see him, how about it? Is it more than enough to match him? haha. I asked her with a smile.
It is said that I should be happy, but I always feel that there is a vacuum between me and Han Lu, and I can't see through her.
