Chapter 14: In Search of Anger

"They are all unconscious people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xia Anping, editor-in-chief of Juvenile Weekly, sat in his leather mahogany boss's chair, turning slightly from side to side, shaking his head with emotion.

Lu Zecheng, who was sitting opposite him and only dared to stick half of his butt to the chair, looked at the biggest boss of the whole company nervously, confused. He didn't come to listen to the editor-in-chief's feelings, but hoped that the real editor-in-chief of the juvenile weekly would give him an idea.

Wu Zhijian lost his temper and ran away, as if he had ever had this incident, and he didn't pay attention to it anymore.

Lu Zecheng sat stupidly in his office for a day, he planned to dry things out first, and then go to do his work when Lao Wu's anger was gone. But early the next morning, a call from a good friend in the same industry almost scared him out.

The story of Juvenile Weekly's misconduct has spread throughout the industry!

Since yesterday, major fairy tale magazines have been looking for Anger's contact information and address everywhere, intending to poach them. According to this good friend, yesterday a person called his unit and asked him if he wanted to buy this Anger information, and their editor-in-chief was still thinking about it, but it seemed very interested.

Lu Zecheng immediately couldn't sit still, and while cursing those hateful ghosts, he went directly to the editing room to ask Lu Ping if there was a reply from Anger.

Lu Ping said: Except for the last one-sentence email with "I am waiting for the court summons". No matter how much he emailed to explain, Anger didn't reply.

"Call him!"

Because the contact has always been smooth, and Lu Zecheng, who has never thought of using the second way of contact, finally thought of this trick.

It's a pity that if he had made this call earlier, he would have noticed the problem earlier.

"Hey, hello, who are you?"

"Hello, are you Anger?"

"Anger, I'm not. You made a mistake. ”

"Oh, no. I'm sorry, Anger is a pen name, do you have a fairy tale writer in your family, the pen name is Anger. ”

"Haha, you're really wrong, I really don't have this person in my family, but my children have seen Ange's fairy tales."

"Well, thank you anyway, goodbye."

……

Putting down the phone, Lu Zecheng said to Lu Ping with a strange expression: "The phone number is wrong!" ”

Of course Lu Ping heard it, she was also dumbfounded, she gave the editor-in-chief the right phone number, not the phone that was changed to deceive those who had a heart. She hurriedly called up the original email and carefully checked it again. In the end, she was sure that she was right, and if she was wrong, it was Anger who had made the mistake.

"There's only one way to come to the door in person." Lu Zecheng said.

Lu Ping nodded approvingly on the side, and both of them tacitly avoided a question - if the phone number provided by Anger was fake, then was his address real?

It was a misunderstanding, an absolute misunderstanding. After being reborn, Zhao Yiming wrote the phone address of the original time and space when he wrote the address. But in fact, his phone number and address are not the same as the original time and space, and the last digit of his fixed phone in the original time and space is 9, and this time and space is 8. The address, although the actual address of his home has not changed, the building code of the residential area where he lives has changed, the original time and space is Room 301 of Building 2, and this time and space is Room 301 of Unit 2 of Building 12.

There are only two numbers missing, but the actual phone number and address are already very different.

But Lu Zecheng, who doesn't know this, doesn't dare to bet, what if this address is true?

He had seen Lu Ping's change to Anger's address, and she had just changed Building 72 to Building 42. If other fairy tale magazines get this address, as long as Ange lives in that community, it is possible to run into it.

Don't dare to pin your hopes on such an illusory thing as the opponent's bad luck, you must immediately contact Anger and strive for the other party's understanding.

However, obtaining the other party's understanding is not just empty words, not only to abolish those unequal treaties, but also to apologize to the other party, and preferably to make some substantive compensation.

Before Lu Zecheng set off to find Ange, he had to get the above conditions right, otherwise he would go in vain.

Want to get the authorization of these conditions and go to Wu Zhijian?

No kidding!

What to do! Lu Zecheng was heartbroken, and I went to the editor-in-chief.

Lu Zecheng explained the situation to the editor-in-chief, so there was the beginning scene.

Although Xia Anping shook his head and sighed, Lu Zecheng didn't know whether the uneasy ones he was talking about were Wu Zhijian, himself, or the opponents of those fairy tale magazines.

But in fact, if Xia Anping's assistant was there, he would find that his boss was in a very good mood now.

These days, "Fairy Tale Kingdom" has soared, and the entire teenage magazine is happy, but it has also shocked some people to sit still. Among these people, Wu Zhijian is counted as one, and he Xia Anping is also counted as one.

Why can't Xia Anping sit still? If you are a well-intentioned person, you will find that in the recent week's magazine sales evaluation, the "Juvenile Weekly" supervised by Xia Anping led the whole company with a sales volume of 1.03 million, but in terms of total volume, Wu Zhijian's "Children's Pictorial", "Science Fiction Kingdom" and "Fairy Tale Kingdom" have surpassed him. In the latest week, "Fairy Tale Kingdom" sold 690,000 copies, "Children's Pictorial" sold 260,000 copies, and "Science Fiction Kingdom" sold 150,000 copies, which adds up to 1.1 million copies.

He was the first editor-in-chief of the Juvenile Weekly, and his results were surpassed by a deputy editor-in-chief of his subordinates.

This says a lot. But for Xia Anping, the biggest problem is that his editor-in-chief throne is a little unstable.

He's worried about it!

Suppression can't be suppressed, and the old men on the board of directors above are very tight. If they dare to make less money, they will not be allowed to eat themselves, and they will not bring dipping sauce.

It can't be suppressed, it can only be co-opted. But how to win it over?

Xia Anping was worried about the way, but he didn't expect him Lu Zecheng to send it to the door.

Finally calmed down his joyful mood, Xia Anping said to Lu Zecheng: "Xiao Lu, Lao Wu is also the old man of our society. We still have to respect him, and now I can't change his decision-making. ”

Without waiting for Lu Zecheng to show a disappointed expression, Xia Anping continued: "But we can't watch such an excellent author lose because of Lao Wu's mistakes. ”

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes: "Xiao Lu, there is only one way now." Transfer your "Fairy Tale Kingdom" out of Lao Wu's charge, so that he can't control you, and you can let go of your hands and feet. ”

"What do you think?"

Hearing this, Lu Zecheng couldn't understand what the editor-in-chief meant, so he had been messing around for so many years.

Transfer "Fairy Tale Kingdom" out of Lao Wu's charge. And then what? You can't let an editor-in-chief lead "Fairy Tale Kingdom" to the side. It must be given to Xia Anping or to another deputy editor-in-chief, Shang Fenghua.

Lao Xia wants to take "Fairy Tale Kingdom" into his pocket.

Lu Zecheng didn't say anything, and Xia Anping smiled.

If you don't object, it means that there is a play, and it's time to add weight.

"Xiao Lu, I personally think that there is a big problem with Lao Wu's approach. You are a talent, and he should give you more space and a bigger stage, not constraints. It's too bad for your talents. ”

This is Xia Anping's olive branch, and his meaning is obvious, as long as you Lu Zecheng vote under my command, I will definitely support you.

"Xiao Lu, what do you think!" Xia Anping threw out the last weight unhurriedly: "There is a regular meeting of the board of directors this afternoon, and the problem of "Fairy Tale Kingdom" can be solved, and I can take you to attend." ”

This is the general.

The adjustment of the magazines in charge of each editor-in-chief is not up to Xia Anping alone, and this kind of major matter has to be passed by the board of directors.

The reason why Lu Zecheng, who had already been moved by Xia Anping's suggestion, did not immediately express his position was because of this. Although you Lao Xia said a lot, everything has to be decided by the board of directors meeting. You can wait, but I can't wait.

If this matter takes a few days to be completed, I, Lu Zecheng, would rather kneel and beg him Lao Wu.

"Editor-in-chief." Lu Zecheng finally spoke: "Solve it today!" ”

"No problem!"

"Deal!"

At the regular meeting of the board of directors in the afternoon, Lu Zecheng poured bitter water, Xia Anping echoed on the side, and the two of them sang double reeds to get the thing done.

The directors of Juvenile Weekly were naturally not so hasty, and they could also see that Xia Anping and Lu Zecheng were acting. However, as long as you can make money for the magazine, you can sing big dramas without any problem. For the two people who earn them the most money, they still have this tolerance.

As for Wu Zhijian, he couldn't even win over his subordinates, crying and shouting to change the court, and he was going to put a question mark on Lao Wu's ability.

In this way, without Wu Zhijian's knowledge, the magazine he was in charge of was inexplicably missing. When he found out, he scolded Lu Zecheng for being a traitor, and no matter how many things he smashed in the office, it would be useless.

Lu Zecheng can't take care of his old boss. After Xia Anping officially took over the management of "Fairy Tale Kingdom", he immediately fulfilled his promise. gave Lu Zecheng a lot of authority.

Xia Anping is not as real as Wu Zhijian, only what he does is the real achievement. He pays more attention to practical results, no matter how much Lu Zecheng achieves, as long as he is under his direct leadership. And his own mind is on "Juvenile Weekly", and he doesn't have much energy to manage "Fairy Tale Kingdom", and he is not an expert in fairy tales. So, the Cheyenne Plains are: you go wild and grow. I have a share of the results, and it doesn't matter if I don't have the results, my position is more stable. I don't lose any way.

With authority, Lu Zecheng first asked Lu Ping to send an email to Ange, explaining that he had withdrawn all the previous terms, immediately released the arrears of manuscript fees, and was willing to negotiate to give him some financial compensation, hoping that he could forgive him and continue to contribute.

But I waited all night, and there was no news from Ange until the next morning.

I can't wait!

Looking at the map, Jingxing City is only 200 kilometers away from Jinling, and it can be reached in up to three hours on the elevated highway.

Lu Zecheng called Lu Ping and left: "I'll go to the company to get an official car, plus you, a local who is familiar with the road, let's go to Jingxing City." ”
