Chapter 16 Selling a Car
When Li Er heard the news, he immediately wanted to object.
Because "Weekly Shangjing Boy NEXT" is a supplement to "Weekly Shogun Shine Boy", it is only published in three months. If it is arranged in this way, it is basically the same as cutting it in half.
Bai An, who was sitting beside him, quickly pulled him.
Li Er glanced at Editor-in-Chief Bai and had to keep his mouth shut.
The rest of the editors didn't notice their small movements, and they were still immersed in the news that a work of cutting in half won the first place in this newspaper......
You know, this is the number one selling magazine in the country, "Weekly Shangjing Boy"!
And that work has been at the bottom of three consecutive episodes!
And the editor in charge of Nima's work is still a rookie editor!
It's even more bizarre than being captured by aliens when you come home from work, or your own dog suddenly talking to her.
It's not scientific!
They just screamed with a screaming expression.
But this is the case, whether they believe it or not, "Wanyou King" won the first place with a crushing vote, and the company's senior management saw it.
Is it a once-in-a-lifetime coincidence? Or is it that although Lear is a rookie editor, he has the magical ability to transform decay?
If it's a coincidence, then Lear has no value. If it's the latter, they'll have to think about whether to continue to put him in the fourth group.
After all, the fourth group is a place dedicated to dealing with related households, mediocre people, and thorns, and no one else has ever been the editor in charge of popular comics except for the editor-in-chief. And the few capable people have very serious flaws in their personalities.
If there are really good seedlings, the top management will not let them stay in the fourth group. I'm afraid that they will also infect other people.
But Lear ...... Judging from the last time he confronted the editor-in-chief, it looked like a thorn.
Such an unstable factor cannot be swapped out at will.
Let's keep him in the fourth group, if he can really stand out from this environment, then this experience will also be a grind for him.
After the rankings were announced, the big red tickets were distributed to the hands of the editors.
At this time, Li Er knew that there was a month's bonus on the cart, no wonder it looked so scary.
One vote is equal to forty yuan, which means that his bonus this time is 28,640 yuan. That's enough for him to pay the rent.
In addition, 50% of the total prize money of the group will also be converted into a prize money and distributed equally among each team member. Lear's little vault was plump up at once.
Therefore, if they really have the ability to guide the author to draw good works, the salary of the editors is only higher than the average in Shangjing.
Otherwise, it would be too strange for a company that is the number one in the industry to not even afford to rent a house.
"I've heard that you have taken so many bonuses, treat you to a treat!" Zhang Huaishan said on the shoulder outside the conference room.
"Okay, dandan noodles and lo noodles are instant noodles, you can choose for less than ten yuan!
"You're such a buddy!"
"Just kidding. Wait, I'll take a call. Li Er took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and saw that it was actually a classmate who worked in a car dealership.
He picked up the phone: "Hey, what's the matter?"
"Ah, Lear. Didn't you introduce me last time and say that he wanted to buy a car, but instead of buying a car, he wanted to sell it. This man is your friend, I think he seems to be in some financial difficulties, you don't know his situation?"
"What, I knew that Mr. Gao didn't tell the truth. You stabilize him first, don't let him sell. Forget it, I'll call him personally. ”
"Hey, okay. The other party hung up the phone.
Zhang Huaishan heard it all beside him: "What's the matter, you won't be ready to lend him money, right?"
"Otherwise, he is even going to sell his new car, and I must help him. ”
"You're stupid!" Zhang Huaishan grabbed him, "Is there anything like you? You yourself are not in a good financial situation, and you still lend money to others." He's known you for less than two weeks. ”
Zhang Huaishan understands Li Er's living conditions, and since Li Er cut off contact with his family, he has relied on the basic salary of 2,000 yuan for food and drink.
What is 2,000 yuan enough to do in Shangjing?
How high is the consumption level in Beijing, take him Zhang Huaishan as an example. He lives at home and doesn't eat out, so it's not enough to spend his monthly salary.
As for Li Er, he lived in a small house of less than ten square meters outside and rented out the company's dormitory, just to save more money every month.
Zhang Huaishan has seen Li Er's current living environment, where are people living in? As soon as he goes out, it stinks, and bathing and going to the toilet are still public in the same place. The house is small and narrow, and the one-meter-nine man can only go in with his head shrunk, and he doesn't even think about turning over when he lies on the bed, and he will go next door as soon as he turns over.
Li Er can actually live in this kind of place for half a year!
In this way, Li Er actually wants to lend money to others, is he 2!
"Huaishan, if I am in trouble, will you lend me money?"
"Of course!"
Li Er smiled: "That's not it." If you are in trouble, no matter how much money I have, I will borrow from you. ”
"But Mr. Gao, he... You've only known him for a long time. ”
"Don't say it, I trust my cartoonist. ”
Looking at Li Er's expression, Zhang Huaishan knew that he couldn't shake him. Zhang Huaishan is very stubborn in this regard, and he can't pull back ten cows for what he recognizes.
Zhang Huaishan was inexplicably melancholy. But I was a little touched, because making friends with such people is your lifelong wealth.
……
Half an hour ago
In the parking lot of the second-hand car trading market, Gao Qiao turned around for half a circle to find a parking space. He turned off the flame, pulled out the keys, and wiped a handful of sweat.
The sun is scorching. In such weather, if you don't turn on the air conditioner for three minutes, you can smell the barbecue in the car. Gao Qiao turned off the air conditioner three minutes ago because of the door, and now he is lying down for a while, and he is all three points cooked.
Gao Qiao repeatedly confirmed that he hadn't forgotten anything and jumped out of the car.
He reluctantly patted the snow-white car door, and then grinned with a burn.
I can't help it......
I just bought it for less than half a year, and the mileage is less than 3,000, such a good new car will be sold when it is said to be sold.
He looked back at the second-hand car market step by step.
The car is like a man's lover, eager to hold it in his arms and in his heart. And those who want to give their lover to others must have a hole in their brains!
Gao Qiao's choice to sell the car was also a ruthless decision after careful consideration.
Although today is Thursday, the trading market is very crowded and lively. Gao Qiao took his mobile phone and searched for a long time before he found the intermediary introduced to him by Li Er.
The person who came was wearing a white shirt, so let's call him a white shirt for convenience.
Seeing Gao Qiao for the first time, the corners of the white shirt's mouth twitched. What a strange thing this is, the hair is curly and unkempt, the socks are long and short, and the pants are worn backwards.
However, Bai Shirt still warmly received Gao Qiao, but when he learned that Gao Qiao was going to sell a car instead of buying it, his attitude changed a little.
Although he couldn't get a commission immediately for selling a car, he still didn't leave for the sake of his old classmates.
After looking at the various documents brought by Gao Qiao, Bai Shirt kindly warned him: "Your car has complete procedures, and it didn't take long to buy it." Why do you want to sell it? You must know that the license plate in the capital is not good, and you may not be able to shake the license plate number next time you sell it!"
"If you sell, you must sell, you can give me a real number. ”
"Your invoice is quite complete, but according to the rules, second-hand is cut in half first. The original price of your Huaxia Dongfeng 2580 is 118,000, and after the discount, it is 55,004, so how about making it up to you, 56,000?"
"Fifty-six thousand, so little!" Although he had been mentally prepared, Gao Qiao still howled in distress.
"It's a lot, if you go to other car dealerships, they will charge at least five percent of the handling fee. I didn't take a commission to give you this price. Just ask around. Let's be honest, if I sell you a car, I will get one or two hundred yuan, and if you don't want to sell it, you can do it. Personally, I advise you not to sell it. The white shirt said mildly.
Gao Qiao hesitated.
Originally, because the manuscript fee for the single book would be paid at the end of the month, he agreed to print the card.
Although his "Wanyou King" does not sell as well as popular comics, it can also bring him an additional income of 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a month.
But I didn't expect the publishing house to suddenly go bankrupt, and before sorting out and liquidating the property, Gao Qiao estimated that he would not be able to get the manuscript fee.
However, this has been the case in recent years, and the brick-and-mortar publishing industry has faced a cold winter. Even the sales of the industry-leading "Shangjing Boy" are slowly declining, let alone a small publishing house.
Anyway, when he heard the news, Gao Qiao had the heart to cry. How did such a small probability event fall on him?
The manuscript fee for "Shangjing Boy" is issued once a year, and the next time will be half a year later.
And he can't afford not to pay his assistants, right?
And rent, utilities. Buying a drawing point and manuscript paper is also an expense, not a small amount.
There was no way, Gao Qiao thought of the car he had just bought. He's a cartoonist, and he spends most of his time at home, so he doesn't have much to use his car.
Being able to exchange some money can also solve his urgent needs.
Although the white shirt is fanciful, Taurus Gao Qiao still decided to check the situation of other car dealers on the Internet first.
Gao Qiao lied that he was going to the toilet and walked away.
The white shirt took the opportunity to dial Lear's phone.
Three minutes later, Gao Qiao came back in a huff. After comparing the prices, he found that the white shirt was right, and the other car dealerships were simply bottomless, bottomless black!
"Where did you fill out the application form you said?" Seeing that the time was not early, Gao Qiao decided to settle things quickly.
