Chapter Seventy-Eight: "Dream of Red Mansions" Encounters Obstacles (Second Update)
"Chu Nan, the movie is about to start, don't be stunned at your phone, let's go." Elbow's girlfriend walked over with two drinks and pulled Elbow's hand.
Elbow still has a look of disbelief, no...... This expression is more appropriate to describe as "confused".
"What are you doing...... Let's go! The girlfriend tugged at the elbow hand again.
Only then did he react, glanced at his phone, and then turned his head to look at his girlfriend.
His expression was very strange, like laughing and crying, which made his girlfriend's heart a little numb.
"What's that...... Lily, shall we watch the movie another day? I have something to do, I have to go to Changping......"
Lily was already on fire when she saw her elbow like this, and when she heard him say this, her heart was even more uncomfortable, and she was angry and said, "Chu Nan! What are you going to do? I finally took a shift vacation today, and you said that you were looking for me to watch a movie together, and I rushed all the way from the Fourth Ring Road to here, but what happened? After less than 20 minutes, you said you wouldn't watch it? ”
The movie theater was originally a crowded place, and everyone laughed out loud when they heard Lily's scolding.
Virgin? This dude's name is really funny......
Elbow only came to his senses at this time, after he received the news from the Tang family just now, his first reaction was to go to Changping County immediately to beat Jiang Daoli, so he told Lily to watch a movie another day, and he couldn't wait to appear in front of Jiang Daoli immediately to scold this kid.
Ya's ...... Don't tell me if your feelings become a god?
Thinking of the ugliness that appeared in front of Jiang Daoli just now, the elbow originally came from the plateau red, and his face became even more ruddy: "Lily, it's me who is not good, let's go to the movie first, and I'll explain to you later." ”
Lily didn't appreciate it, shook off her elbow and pulled her hand, and walked straight away......
The eyes of the crowd caused continuous damage to the elbow......
MD…… Chiang! Road! Stand! Do you believe me or not...... Believe it or not...... The elbow is not in one place.
Thinking of this, Elbow ran to chase Lily, and quickly took out his mobile phone to dial, dialing the landline number of Jiang Daoli's ward, which Jiang Daoli told him on the penguin before.
"Jiang Daoli, Lao Tzu is not finished with you!" After the phone was connected, Jiang Daoli, who was coding words, only heard this sentence, and then there was a busy tone on the phone.
The voice...... Looks like an elbow, right? What's the matter? Jiang Daoli's two small eyebrows were about to wrinkle into crescents.
Because he didn't know what was going on, Jiang Daoli was also confused, shook his head, and continued to code.
Before he could write a word, the call came again.
"The second hair is big, just now my tone was wrong, I was wrong......"
The sound of elbows still coming from the earpiece.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Daoli was puzzled, and at the same time faintly heard a female voice on the phone.
Hey...... Young Master Jiang is ready to pit his good brother.
"It's not because you...... No...... I didn't mean that, just now the Tang family sent me a screenshot, and I knew that you really didn't lie to me, and I said the wrong thing in a moment of excitement, which made Lily angry. ”
"Who is Lily? Isn't your girlfriend a little red flower or something? ”
There was a shout from the earpiece: "Chu Nan! Didn't you say I was your first love? What is this little red flower? If you don't make it clear to my mother today, we'll be finished! ”
Lily...... Listen to me......" The phone was busy again.
Jiang Daoli was holding back a smile...... Of course, he said this on purpose, as soon as the phone was connected, he heard a girl's voice inside, and the elbow should be to explain something, and calling himself was on hands-free.
This girl is naturally Lily, the last time he asked Jiang Daoli to go on a blind date on his behalf at Little Fat Sheep's Elbow, it was because he said that he couldn't betray Lily and fulfill his parents' arrangement......
Shaking his head, he guessed that this tease was being beaten by Lily......
Before the hand of the codeword was placed on the keyboard, the penguin rang, a message to add friends.
"Hello, I'm Sun Man, editor-in-chief of "Jinghua Reader".
Jiang Daoli passed the request, hasn't he always been responsible for the cigarette gun in the matter of his contribution to the "Jinghua Reader"? Why does the editor-in-chief add himself?
"Hello." Jiang Daoli greeted politely.
"Hello, sorry to bother you so late, haven't you rested yet?"
Jiang Daoli glanced at the time in the lower right corner, it was only half past eight...... Resting ...... This Sun Man is looking for himself, it should be because of the matter of "Dream of Red Mansions", right? But when the cigarette gun told himself at the time, did he say that the editor-in-chief was very satisfied? Could there be other problems?
"No, what's the matter? Is it about "Dream of Red Mansions"? ”
"Yes, I have to apologize to you personally for this incident......"
"Huh?" Jiang Daoli couldn't understand it, why did the editor-in-chief apologize to himself?
"That's right, after receiving your "Dream of Red Mansions" the day before yesterday, everyone in our editorial department was very optimistic, and decided to arrange an 8-page layout for you at that time."
"But yesterday I received a contribution from Xue Liang, a famous writer of our "Jinghua Story Newspaper", no one expected that he would choose to serialize the novel in "Jinghua Reader" at this time, and he asked for ten pages of layout, so ......"
When Jiang Daoli saw this, he was a little angry in his heart.
I guessed most of the reason for the matter, it is estimated that this Xue Liang is very important to the newspaper, so his request to the newspaper must be satisfied, since he was given ten pages of layout, then his "Dream of Red Mansions" is only 5 pages, the first time is 8000 words, which is not enough at all!
"I signed a contract with myself this morning, so why didn't I tell myself at that time? Do you have to say it now? What do you mean? Swindle? Jiang Daoli's reply was to the point and merciless.
Sun Man thought about Jiang Daoli's reaction, but he didn't expect his reaction to be so intense.
"I'm really sorry, although I said that it was 8 pages, but we have already written it in the contract, and our newspaper is fully responsible for the layout."
Jiang Daoli thought about it for a while, as if there was such a clause, and replied by typing: "What does it mean now?" Does that mean my manuscript for this issue can't be published in the magazine? I'm surprised, you are the ones who asked me for a manuscript, you are the ones who proposed the 8-page layout, and now you are the ones who are saying this to me? ”
"No, no...... No, we are going to divide the first part of "Dream of Red Mansions" into two sections, and this issue will first release the first section, if the reader's response is better than Xue Liang's new book, I also have the confidence to talk with him here, and the next issue will resume 8 pages. ”
Xue Liang? Jiang Daoli quickly opened the browser and searched for the name.
The results showed that Xue Liang was a sixth-level writer who had been serialized in the Jinghua Story Newspaper for six years, with strong writing skills and novel stories, which were unanimously recognized by readers and the literary community.
Jiang Daoli completely understands this now, such a situation is also at the starting point, the great god sends a new book, and the recommendation position naturally has the priority of the great god, as for hitting the street...... Let's get in line!
"Co-authoring is now my problem? Don't you usually communicate with such a great god? He wants to post an article, you only found out yesterday? ”――
The second more is delivered, and there is another one in the evening, rolling Thomas Roundabout Rolling for a reward and recommended collection!
