After listening to Zhao Shihong's words, Li Wei was also very strange, and he couldn't understand how he could quit his job even if he had such a good job! Although he used to be an editor of a publishing house, he was nothing compared to a cadre of a large organ like Zhao Shihong. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
But with such a good job, Zhao Shihong still resigned. This made Li Wei a little puzzled. So I asked Zhao Shihong. The other party just said that he hated the deceitful life of the government unit, so he wanted to start his own business and live a chic life.
Although Li Wei has some doubts about this issue, think about Zhao Shihong's character, he is the same as him, he is a person who likes to be free and easy, and such a person is indeed a little aggrieved when he stays in the institution.
When Li Wei knew about this, he asked Zhao Shihong what was the matter with calling him, and said that he had resigned now and was an idler.
As soon as he heard this, Zhao Shihong seemed very happy, and told Li Wei that he wanted to start a business with him, saying that he had registered a children's publishing house and recruited a few employees, but there was no suitable editor-in-chief, and he wanted to dig an editor-in-chief in another publishing house, but it would cost a lot of money, and now Zhao Shihong has no money left.
For Zhao Shihong, this entrepreneurship was also a 'big gamble'. Because his family is not wealthy, his parents are ordinary employees of government agencies. Although the income is stable, if you want to support Zhao Shihong's entrepreneurship, you have more than enough to do.
Originally, Zhao Shihong's incident made his parents very angry. Because of his work, his parents also begged a lot of people, so they found a good job as a civil servant for their son.
But the son has just been in class for half a year, so he picks his son again, which naturally makes Zhao Shihong's parents very angry.
But angry is angry, Zhao Shihong has resigned, and they have no choice. It's just that I heard that Zhao Shihong wants to start his own business, and I am somewhat relieved. But they can only clearly tell their son that it is his own business if he wants to start a business, and his parents are ordinary people and can't help at all.
Zhao Shihong listened, and naturally he couldn't blame his parents. I was so reckless, and casually resigned from my enviable job as a civil servant, that is, unfilial piety to my parents. Now that his parents can agree to him starting a business, it is the greatest support for him, do you expect anything else!
In this way, Zhao Shihong resigned without hesitation and began the process of starting his own business. He borrowed money from everywhere and finally raised hundreds of thousands, which can be regarded as the establishment of a publishing house.
But it's so easy to make a career, especially for a small company that has just started, it's even more difficult.
For Zhao Shihong, the most important thing now is to have someone to work hard with him so that he can do his own business.
So Zhao Shihong thought of Li Wei, a college classmate. He wanted to pull Li Wei into the water! But he also knew that Li Wei was working as an editor in a large publishing house! It was also a stable and decent job, and he wanted to let his family start a business with him, and I don't know if people would be willing!
Before Zhao Shihong called Li Wei, he was still thinking about how to persuade Li Wei to resign!
But as soon as he connected Li Wei's phone, he knew that Li Wei had resigned. At this time, Zhao Shihong was happy, and soon summoned Li Wei to his command.
Li Wei is now also thinking that he should make a career when he is young, and what is the meaning of being in the 'Chuncao Publishing House', it is possible to be a small editor for the rest of his life! Instead of doing this, it is better to start a business with Zhao Shihong, and maybe he can also make a career!
In this way, Li Wei became an editor-in-chief of the 'New Star Publishing House' that Zhao Shihong had just established.
Although he is an editor-in-chief, Zhao Shihong made it clear to Li Wei in advance that he, the editor-in-chief and he, the president, can only tighten their belts for the time being, and everything will not change until their publishing house has performance!
Li Wei and Zhao Shihong are good friends, and their personalities are similar. After listening to Zhao Shihong's words, he was naturally full of confidence in his future, although life would be more difficult for the time being, but they firmly believed that the future was beautiful and they could also make a career.
The publishing house was established, and the editor-in-chief was also established. Then the next thing is naturally to find a good work to publish.
However, their publishing house has only been established for more than a month, and it is not well-known at all, and many people have never even heard of such a publishing house. How many people will contribute?
Therefore, this 'New Star Publishing House' has received dozens of manuscripts since its establishment for more than a month. Just these dozens of articles, most of them are some college classmates of Zhao Shihong and Li Wei, in order to express their support for them, and they temporarily wrote a number of manuscripts.
Think about it, how can these college students write good works if they are not professional children's literature writers!
Now, for Li Wei and Zhao Shihong, whether they can get a good piece of children's literature is the key to the survival of this publishing house. But there are so many good works. In addition, there are now several children's literature publishing houses in Beijing, and it can be said that these large publishing houses have monopolized them. Now that Zhao Shihong and Li Wei want to survive in the cracks, the difficulty is conceivable.
Zhao Shihong is fine, he will discuss with Li Wei how to dig out a good work, only in this way can they make this children's publishing house make some achievements, and they can embark on a sunny road of rapid growth.
At first, Li Wei didn't know what to do. But just now, he had no intention of looking at his mobile phone address book, but he saw Xu Hong's name, and then he suddenly thought that when he was an editor at 'Chuncao Publishing House', he saw a good work, and he still quarreled with Zheng Tian because of this work, and then resigned!
Li Wei thought, perhaps, Xu Hong's work has not yet been published! If this is the case, he can fight for it, and if Xu Hong's work can be published, then it will be possible for theirs, the 'New Star Publishing House,' to make achievements.
That's it, Li Wei quickly called Xu Hong. I'm afraid that Xu Hong will have found the publishing house again and sold the copyright of his work, if that happens, it will be too late.
Therefore, when Li Wei heard Xu Hong say that his work had hit a wall again, Li Wei would show a happy look, which made Xu Hong think that he was gloating! It was only after listening to Li Wei's explanation that he understood what was going on.
Now Li Wei told Xu Hong about the things he had experienced after he resigned, so that Xu Hong would know that now they, the 'New Star Publishing House', were in need of a good work! I hope they could cooperate with Xu Hong!
As soon as he heard Li Wei's words, Xu Hong understood his intention to invite himself to dinner.
"Li Wei, I can also think about it, but my work, you have also seen it, this is definitely a good work! I don't know, if I cooperate with you, how much royalty you can give me!"
Thinking about it, this 'New Star Publishing House' is just a newly established publishing house, and Li Wei himself can't get any salary, so I really don't know how much he can get paid for cooperating with such a publishing house!
"Mr. Xu, about this royalty matter, I think, let's discuss it with Brother Zhao together! I can't be the master of this matter myself, I just meet with you first and talk about it. If you want, we will go to our 'New Star Press' now, and then meet with our brother Zhao, and then we will talk about this royalty matter, you see how it goes." ”
Although Li Wei is the editor-in-chief of 'New Star Publishing House', he has no right to give Xu Hong how much royalties he wants, and everything has to be discussed with Zhao Shihong before he can decide!
"Okay, then let's go!"
Xu Hong thought that he would not be able to find a buyer for this work anyway, and if it could not be published within 10 days, he would lose to Liu Changtian, and when the time came, it would be a large loss! Although Xu Hong did not look at the 500,000 yuan at all, he could completely take out the 500,000 yuan, but he couldn't swallow this breath, and it was difficult to save this face! Therefore, now he just wants to earn this breath, that is, to earn this face.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xu. ”
Li Wei looked at Xu Hong and said politely. Then he called the waiter to settle the bill, and walked out of the 'Chundu Restaurant' with Xu Hong.
The two of them soon came to the 'Nova Press'.
When Xu Hong and Li Wei drove to the front of a building, Xu Hong felt a little familiar in front of him, and he felt like he was back in the 'Blue Sky Building' in Tiannan City.
After getting out of the car, Li Wei pointed to a building in front of him and said, "It's inside, there is no way, now I can only rent an office building." When our publishing house makes money, we can build a decent office building ourselves. ”
"Well, you'll have that day. Xu Hong also looked at Li Wei and said a nice word.
The two of them went upstairs together and came to an office on the third floor.
Looking at everything in front of him, Xu Hong felt as if he had returned to the 'New Star Publishing House' in Tiannan City, and had a feeling of 'going home'.
In particular, he also heard that the surname of the boss of this 'New Star Publishing House' is Zhao, and he is also the same surname as Zhao Ming, the president of their 'New Star Publishing House' in Tiannan City!
When he didn't see Zhao Shihong, Xu Hong wondered, would this Zhao Shihong be a little the same as that Zhao Ming!
Now when he arrived in Zhao Shihong's office, Xu Hong looked at the young man in front of him, and he felt that he was a little the same as Zhao Mingchang, he was tall and handsome, giving people a feeling of strength and strength.
"Brother Zhao, this is Mr. Xu Hongxu, the author of "Sanmao Wanderings", and now he is an art teacher in a primary school in the suburbs of our capital. ”
As soon as the two arrived in the house, Li Wei immediately stood in front of Zhao Shihong and introduced Xu Hong's situation to him. Because, before, Li Wei also talked to Zhao Shihong about Xu Hong, and he also told Zhao Shihong that Xu Hong wrote a children's literature called "Sanmao Wanderings". The writing is very good, and the editors and editors-in-chief of their publishing house read it and said it was very good. It's just that their president is a guy with no vision and is unwilling to publish Xu Hong's works!
"Hello, my name is Zhao Shihong, and I am the president of this 'New Star Publishing House'. As soon as Zhao Shihong heard Li Wei's words, he immediately walked out of his desk, came to Xu Hong, and shook his hand.
"Hello, President Zhao. Xu Hong also looked at Zhao Shihong and said politely.
"Please take a seat!" Zhao Shihong looked at Xu Hong and made a gesture of please.
"Thank you!" Xu Hong turned around and sat on the sofa next to the coffee table.
Zhao Shihong turned around and sat down at his desk again. Li Wei also sat on the sofa beside Xu Hong.
"Mr. Xu, I heard that you wrote a work of children's literature called "Sanmao Wanderings". I heard Editor-in-Chief Li say, you wrote very well, I don't know, you have nothing to do with this manuscript now! Can you give me a sneak peek!"
Thinking about what Li Wei said before, Zhao Shihong was already very interested in Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", so he wanted to have a sneak peek!
"Oh, take it! If you want to see it, just take a look!" Xu Hong didn't mind, since he wanted to cooperate with Zhao Shihong, of course he had to let people see the manuscript first.
After speaking, Xu Hong stood up and came to Zhao Shihong with his briefcase. Unzipped it, took out the manuscript of "Sanmao Wanderings" from it, and put it in front of Zhao Shihong.
"Okay, you sit down for a while, I'll read two chapters first. Zhao Shihong picked up Xu Hong's manuscript and sat at his desk to read it.
But he only read one chapter, and he was fascinated by this story, and it was the first time he had seen such a beautiful story.
In this way, Zhao Shihong read chapter by chapter, and forgot what he just said. I just want to read this work all the time!
Xu Hong is now sitting with Li Wei, watching Zhao Shihong read the manuscript so fascinated, so he didn't bother him.
It's just that Zhao Shihong has been watching like this, not to mention Xu Hong, Li Wei is a little anxious, this is to talk to Xu Hong, he is here to talk about publishing. But now Zhao Shihong is just reading the manuscript and not discussing this matter with Xu Hong, so why don't he be a little anxious.
So more than an hour later, Li Wei couldn't help it, he stood up and came to Zhao Shihong.
"Brother Zhao, it's been more than an hour, do you see if this manuscript is almost the same, don't read it anymore, such a good manuscript, only read two chapters, I think you should be able to decide to publish it!"
Li Wei deliberately interrupted Zhao Shihong's strength to read the manuscript. Zhao Shihong was watching it wonderfully! When he saw that Li Wei interrupted his interest, his face was still a little unpleasant at first! But as soon as he saw Xu Hong sitting on the side, he changed to a smiling face again.
