23. Chapter 23
Li Ji's job search is quite smooth, and he directly entered the work state after the interview, he is estimated to be really stimulated by Ding Xu, and he is particularly hard at his current job, and he is still reading information when he returns home every day.
And when Li Ji was working hard, Ding Kun encountered a very hot thing here!
He was deceived into writing.
After the outline was handed over, the other party asked him for 30,000 words at the beginning of the novel, Ding Su did not doubt him, and directly passed the text to him, the other party said that he needed a three-day review period, Ding Su expressed his understanding, and asked about the manuscript fee, but the other party finished talking before giving the settlement.
Ding Kun immediately became suspicious. After asking a few questions one after another, he was directly blocked.
Ding Kun dropped the mouse at that time!
After Huoda ran to the hole in the forum tree, many netizens expressed their sympathy, and also told many scammers to cheat manuscripts everywhere in the name of the studio, which is already a common thing in the writer's circle, and generally those who are fooled are newcomers who have just entered the circle.
Ding Kun, a newcomer who had just entered the pit, found it difficult to bear.
Someone should not look for a studio casually, you should find a reliable publishing house, and it is not too late to search for reviews on the Internet before submitting your manuscript.
Ding Su thanked him, but the fire in his heart still couldn't go down.
It's all about how to get what belongs to you back.
Although I knew that it was impossible to get the manuscript back.
After translating the materials at hand, Ding Jun checked them again, handed over the work, registered an account on a literary website, and after applying to become an author, he directly put the first 30,000 words on it.
After that, I joined and began to bury my head in codewords.
In fact, Ding Kun didn't know what he was doing like this, he just didn't want the fruits of his labor to be taken up by scammers like this, and he at least had the right to be the first to put it on the Internet.
buried in front of the computer like this, and for the first two days, because he couldn't get into the state, he could only write 10,000 words. Later, after gradually letting go of the fact that he was deceived, he spent almost 14 hours a day coding words in front of the computer in addition to eating and sleeping.
This state was quickly noticed by Li Ji, and even An Ming felt that something was wrong. When asked at the dinner table, Ding Kun just said that he had received the manuscript and would complete it within the specified time, and never mentioned that he had been cheated.
An Ming was very happy to hear it, "Okay, you can work at home, how much does your income be?" β
Ding Yun pursed his lips, glanced at him, and said, "I haven't settled yet." β
Li Ji looked at his face and took two bites of rice without saying a word.
Ding Su saw that he was eating so deliciously, he couldn't help but smile, and gave him a chicken thigh, Liu Liuliu immediately complained: "I said I'll eat this chicken foot after I finish gnawing it!" β
"An Ming told me yesterday that he can't hold your fat anymore."
Liu Liuliu's face collapsed.
An Ming was stunned, and shouted when Liu Liuliu stretched out his oil paw to his ear: "I didn't!" β
Ding Kuncai ignored them, and when he saw Li Ji raising his eyes to look at him, he smiled even more happily.
The two guys were frowning here, and Liu Liuliu had already beaten An Ming so much that he couldn't get up.
Ding Kun got up directly after he was full, Li Ji put down the bowl and chased after him, entered the room and pressed him directly behind the closed door, "What's wrong with you?" β
Ding Kun touched his face and asked, "What's wrong?" β
"You've been looking bad these days." Li Ji held his cheeks and said, "The dark circles under your eyes are all out, do you make up for sleep at home during the day?" β
Ding Kun touched his face, suddenly pulled his cheek, looked at his grinning expression and smiled: "This dislikes me?" β
Li Ji shook his head violently.
Ding Kun: "You seem to be very tired these days, and you sleep without kissing me when you get home." β
Li Ji begged for mercy: "Can you not tease me." β
"Sleeping in the same bed with me all day, but like a dead pig, is this your attitude of chasing people?"
"......" Li Ji said, "Do you want to ...... Do I have an attitude? β
"I don't want to." Ding Su glanced at him and sat down in front of the computer again, Li Ji followed, bent down to look at his screen, and was pushed: "Go take a bath." β
And when Li Ji came out of the shower, Ding Kun had already closed the computer and sat on the bed reading a book.
Li Ji climbed into bed, and Ding Su pushed his quilt to him and patted it. So Li Ji honestly got in, Ding Su touched his head, and said gently: "Good night." β
Li Ji supported half of his body: "I haven't kissed you yet." β
Ding Su leaned over and kissed him, and patted him on the head: "Go to sleep." β
Li Ji lay down again, his eyes fell on the waistline that was inadvertently exposed under his flannel pajamas, swallowed his saliva, turned over, turned his back to him and said, "Xiao Yan, you must remember to tell me if you have something." β
"Got it."
After Li Ji fell asleep, Ding Kun studied the plot conflict points for a while, listed several small plot conflicts on the notes in a row, and turned off the lights and fell asleep when it was almost twelve o'clock.
Li Ji is now going out early and returning late, he is a newcomer to the company, there is a lot of training to receive, and there is a lot to learn, although the schedule is very tight, but Li Ji finds that his life is much more fulfilling, and Ding Ji also praised him for being more mature than he has begun.
Li Ji learned things very quickly, but he was a little poor at memorizing information, if it weren't for Ding Kun's supervision, he would have fallen asleep with his eyes open.
Ding Kun is a pure newcomer in the online literature circle, although there are a lot of updates, but there are very few people who can see it. Fortunately, Ding Xuan just wanted to write out the outline that was deceived as soon as possible, and he didn't care much about the number jΓΉ, so he still updated it very diligently.
Half a month after posting, Ding Kun accidentally brushed the backstage only to find that the comments under the article began to increase, and at the same time, the backstage suddenly swiped out a short station.
It's a contracted text message from an editor.
Ding Yunhu looked at it suspiciously for a while, went to the forum and sent the screenshot, and asked directly: "Is it a liar?" β
1LοΌβ¦β¦ 23333333
2L: Hahahahahaha
3L: Poof!
4L: Edit the lying gun hahahahaha
5L: The girl is cute and begging to hook up~!
6L: Platoon big brother
7L: Hahahahaha, I didn't expect that Yuyu would be hung one day hahaha
8L: I laughed to deathγ (*β§β½β¦) γβββ
9L: The girl is so cute!!
β¦β¦
Ding Kun looked at all the floors, and finally found the most critical first floor in the laughter of nearly fifty floors:
"Youyou is not a liar, it is a **frequency editor, the person is very good, the landlord directly from it~"
As a dead, of course Ding Kun won't understand what the hell ** is. But the point is!
"Mine is no CP, why did he sign me?"
Someone replied: "Maybe I see that there is a sentiment in your article......"
Ding Kun thought about it and felt that it seemed to be really like that.
Most of his comments in the article persuaded him that it would be better to change it directly to **.
Ding Su frowned, closed the forum, added the secluded penguin, and was quickly cleared.
Youyou was the first to send a message: "Do you have any plans to sign a contract?" β
"Is there any money?"
Youyou was silent for a while and sent a message: "If you write well, you can have it~"
Ding Kun felt that what he wrote should be good, so he said, "Sign." β
Youyou said: "Then I'll send you the contract, you can read it first, and then contact me if you have any questions~"
"Okay."
Ding Kun decided to sign a contract.
There are two reasons for this:
1. For money.
He is very tight now, although he can take care of food, but he is also very reluctant, and now the water and electricity bills and rent are paid by An Ming. Although the two of them are small, others are not obligated to him after all.
2. For the sake of your own words that will be settled after the end of the sentence.
Although there seems to be no difference, if you don't get a penny after the end of the novel, the fact that you have been deceived will naturally be exposed. Ding Kun felt that he was quite useless, and he really didn't have the face to let people know about it.
His leg was still very inconvenient, and he was led to the hospital by Li Ji to see him once, and the doctor said that the plaster cast could be removed in two weeks, but he still couldn't exercise vigorously.
When the other three people in the room were all going to work, Ding Kun dragged his waste leg out of the door, there was no copy agency near the apartment, and he had to run to the South Bus Station. To be honest, Ding Kun's mood was a little excited.
He told Li Ji at the time that his ideal career was a teacher, and his dream career was a writer, not just nonsense. He himself has a high school teaching certificate, and if Liang Jun didn't say that he wanted to work with him, he would go directly to the school to apply.
Maybe the two will distance themselves a little, and the relationship will not come to an end so quickly.
Today is not a weekend, there are not many people on the bus, Ding Kun, who was going to take a taxi, weighed it and finally chose the bus. As a result, as soon as I got on the bus, I found that Li Ji was sitting at the window looking out, and there was a beautiful little girl sitting next to her, the two of them estimated that they were from a company, wearing very formal clothes.
He subconsciously covered his face and walked towards the back silently, Li Ji didn't know what he was thinking at this time, the little girl kept chattering with him and ignored it, and of course she didn't see Ding Kun.
But it was the chirping girl who blushed when she saw Ding Kun, and stood up stupidly: "You...... You sit here, I'll sit in the back, it's high over there. β
The corners of Ding Su, who forcibly pretended to be blind, twitched the corners of his mouth, shook his head, and walked quickly towards the back, but Li Ji turned his head directly.
The moment he saw Ding Kun, his eyes widened instantly, his hand loosened, and the leaflet he was holding in his arms fell to the ground.
ββ¦β¦β
The little girl next to him hurriedly bent down to help him pick it up, and Li Ji also hurriedly picked it up, but the two bumped into each other.
Li Ji bared her teeth, quickly picked up the things, and said to the girl, "Niu Lili, go and sit in the back." β
The girl originally planned to give up her seat to Ding Kun, but she didn't have any opinions at the moment, so she happily gave up her seat, and finally glanced at Ding Kun and blushed.
Li Ji stood up and helped Ding Su to sit down, his face was not very good.
Ding Kun took the flyer in his hand and looked at it, couldn't help but smile, and said, "It's not ashamed to send leaflets, why are you like this?" β
Li Ji pursed his lips and asked him, "What are you doing here?" β
"I'll get off at the South Station and go buy something."
Li Ji glanced at him, "We're also going to the South Railway Station." β
"......" Ding Su blinked and said, "What a coincidence." β
"What do you have to go there to buy?"
"......" Before Ding Kun could think of how to answer, the little girl in the back leaned on the guardrail and poked her head: "You two know each other?" β
"Well, he's my godbrother."
Li Ji: "......"
"Wow, what a coincidence." The girl glanced at Li Ji and pouted: "You look much easier to get along with than Li Ji." β
Ding Su smiled lightly, the girl blushed again, and shy retracted back to play with her mobile phone.
Li Ji grabbed Ding Kun's hand and glared at him: "Don't laugh! β
Ding Kun slapped him hard, made him let go, and asked, "How much have you sent today?" β
Li Ji was reluctant to say, Ding Kun patted him again, and he spoke: "Two." β
"It's bad." Ding Kun commented without hesitation, and asked: "Are you so bad when you sell insurance?" β
Li Ji said in a rough voice: "Anyway, there is a basic salary." β
Ding Su lowered his hand and touched the back of his hand: "The flyer is just a marketing method, make money with your own labor, there is nothing to be ashamed of." β
Li Ji looked at the fingers of the two hanging under the chair and didn't say anything.
Ding Kun's little finger moved, and he said softly, "Don't you want to associate with me anymore?" He shook his little finger and asked, "Huh?" β
Li Ji paused, gently hooked his little finger, the tip of his heart was numb, and said softly: "Yes." β
Ding Su pursed his lips and smiled, hooked his fingers tightly, and put them to his ear, "I'm still waiting for you to sleep with me in a bed." β
Li Ji gritted his teeth and roared: "You are enough!" β
Ding Kun pulled away and smiled.
