"Isn't Manager Liu transferred to the publishing house as the person in charge now, why do you still need him to forward this manuscript?" Father Chen asked curiously.

"It's my request to Oriental Daily, because the situation of the publishing house is not very good now, and Uncle Liu's position seems to be a little unstable, so I ask Uncle Liu to be the liaison between me and Oriental Daily." Chen Lang said in a low voice when he heard this.
