Chapter 36: The Stories of the Spirits Around You

"Revised, "Ghost Stories" must be changed!"

Yang Qian made the final decision.

After that, the discussion of the layout of the magazine began, and no result could be reached in the morning, and every editor-in-chief tried to pull people and pages for their columns...... Some of them also came up with ideas that sounded good, such as serializing some of the more popular supernatural online articles to magazines.

After eating in the afternoon, when Lin Fan was squinting and napping, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"The editor-in-chief asked you, do you have any ideas?" Xu Huaiyuan poked his waist on the side and reminded him in a low voice.

Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, looked at Yang Qian with a different color, and suddenly thought of the conversation between the two a few days ago.

At first, he just unconsciously said that the work of an editor was a little boring, and it was different from what he imagined, right......

He then threw out an idea that he had been thinking about for a long time: "I think we can add a column of supernatural stories around me in reality, and readers will submit it, and we can check it on the spot according to the situation and write a report according to the facts. ”

Without waiting for others to express their opinions, Yang Qian took the lead in nodding: "Very good idea, this can be added, and you will be responsible for it in the future." ”

Lin Fan was stunned: "I'm not the editor-in-chief of the column. ”

"Then now you are." Yang Qian said.

One sentence made many editors-in-chief at the scene change their faces and wanted to speak.

"I would like to take this opportunity to announce one thing, in the past, the management of our magazine was chaotic, there were those who collaborated with writers to cheat manuscript fees, there were those who openly demanded kickbacks, and there were ...... of embezzling magazine funds."

Every time Yang Qian said a word, the editors-in-chief lowered their heads a little, and at the end, her tone changed, "I don't want to mention the past, but I hope you can all be conscientious in the future, otherwise don't blame me for turning over old accounts!" ”

Her implication is "Which of you dares to block the old lady's decision, don't blame the old lady for turning her face"!

Seeing that the people who were still enthusiastic at the beginning changed their faces and languished, she turned to smile and said, "Just kidding, let's continue." ”

Lin Fan was secretly speechless, and felt more and more that this woman was not simple, and she really deserved to be a natural strong woman.

……

At the end of the meeting, the entire magazine office was finally busy, and after Yang Qian ruthlessly fired two employees who violated the rules, there was no one to drink tea and play games during work hours.

For the column called "Real Supernatural Stories Around Us" planned by Lin Fan, Yang Qian generously sent two people to assist him, one was Xu Huaiyuan, and the other was an intern girl named Tong Yun.

After Xu Huaiyuan became familiar with Lin Fan, he regained the unique image of a dead fat man in front of acquaintances, while Tong Yun seemed a little restrained.

When Lin Fan repeatedly said that she didn't need to see her like this, she changed her name to Lin Fan "Brother Lin" instead of the previous Lin editor.

When Lin Fan went out to pour water, Tong Yun asked Xu Huaiyuan, "Brother Lin doesn't seem to have a shelf." ”

"Of course, you think it's the same as those guys." Xu Huaiyuan said with honor.

"Is he really Editor-in-Chief Yang's boyfriend?" Tong Yun revealed the essence of gossip.

Xu Huaiyuan shook his head, his fat face was full of resentment and grievances that fell into memories: "No, his girlfriend is more beautiful, but don't be fooled by your Brother Lin's appearance, he is bad." ”

"It's still you, Brother Xu, and a man like me who is more at ease."

Tong Yun said disdainfully: "Even if you are a little brother Lin, no one is willing to be your wife." ”

"Hey, I'm sad when you say that, your brother is so distracted."

Lin Fan happened to enter the door with a glass of water and glared at Xu Huaiyuan: "Fatty, you say bad things about me?" ”

"Nope." Xu Huaiyuan looked sincere, "I said that you are generous, and you invited me to Jinxiang Pavilion for dinner two days ago, thousands of yuan." ”

Tong Yun's eyes were shining.

……

After the release of the new issue of the magazine, information about the changes in "Ghost Stories" and a new call for papers were also spread.

For a while, Lin Fan's mailbox was much busier than before.

He looked at it all morning, but couldn't find anything meaningful.

Most of them are things like, "I dreamed that my sheep were gone, and when I woke up the next day, I found that there were really no sheep in my house, which is very supernatural", or "Grandpa told me that my house was leaking, but I couldn't find anything unusual on his grave after looking around".

Early in the morning, he browsed hundreds of submissions in front of the computer, many of which were wonderful supernatural stories, and after still failing to find the expected "goblin incident", Lin Fan couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

Come to think of it, whenever a goblin appears, it is either captured by a guy like Kawasaki Er, or it is subdued by a force like the NSA Special Operations Group, how can it be left to the people.

forwarded a few good supernatural stories to several editors in charge of another column, and Lin Fan was bored to recruit Xu Huaiyuan.

"In the afternoon, you can help me review the manuscript and see if there is anything interesting."

Xu Huaiyuan obviously guessed Lin Fan's thoughts, thinking that this was a common problem of rich people's curiosity, and couldn't help but comfort: "Lin Fan, have you seen 'Approaching Science'?" ”

"Approaching science?" Lin Fan asked suspiciously.

He'd heard of it, but he really hadn't seen it.

"That's right, there is a column called 'Who's Flying on My Back', which says that a man has fallen asleep several times at night and woke up in the morning to find himself in a different place thousands of miles away." Xu Huaiyuan explained.

Lin Fan's eyes lit up slightly: "Then there must be a goblin!" ”

Xu Huaiyuan glanced at Lin Fan playfully, and said with a wicked smile: "In the end, the expert proves that he is sleepwalking!" ”

Lin Fan: "......"

"There is also a case where the walls of a house are electrified." Xu Huaiyuan said again.

Lin Fan frowned and pondered: It's not a goblin who made a ghost, but what are the benefits of doing this?

Xu Huaiyuan smiled again: "Later, it turned out that the electric pen was broken." ”

Lin Fan: "......"

"Well, after all this, I don't want to prove how bad this show is, but I want to tell you that those things are made up by demons and monsters! In reality, there is no zĂ i at all! Xu Huaiyuan said loudly.

To his surprise, Lin Fan did not refute, but bowed his head and said: "You have a very good mentality, so even if you really find ghosts and goblins in the future, you have to write according to this idea, and a harmonious society." ”

The fat man, who thought that Lin Fan had been explained by himself, sighed helplessly.

"Okay, tell me something interesting, you can look at those contributions." Lin Fan said, "By the way, when Tong Yun comes back from dinner, let her communicate with her colleagues in the art editorial department, and the style of the column will be based on the results we discussed yesterday." ”

Perfunctory to get rid of this fat man, Lin Fan skillfully chose another QQ number to log in to LOL, and at this moment, Hu Yan'er's complaining voice came from the mobile phone he put aside: "Why is it so long, hurry up and double row." ”

"Take care of some chores." Lin Fan quickly accepted its invitation, and said, "Don't be so prodigal in these two games, I have the last two sets of qualifying matches, and ten consecutive wins are estimated to be golden." ”

"Got it, you choose a strong jungler, let's link up with the two midfielders to blow up the opposite side!" Hu Yan'er's tone changed and she said unusually sharply.

Several colleagues saw Lin Fan chattering and playing games here, but they could only shake their heads secretly with envy and hatred: Who made the family a celebrity in front of the editor-in-chief.

As soon as he landed in the game, Lin Fan saw the opposite side typing: "The opposite side of the single Ahri God spares his life!" ”

"I'll rub, 95% win rate, ask the god to abuse lightly!"

……

Some people on their side also saw the victory rate of Ahri operated by Hu Yan'er, and they were shocked one by one.

"Ahri with a 95% win rate diamond rank, which great god is this new number."

"Thighs, thighs!"

……

Hu Yan'er spoke proudly in full screen: "Take your younger brother to the level, don't be nervous, they are very gentle girls." ”

Lin Fan was speechless for a while.

But games are obviously the only way to foster relationships, at least for an otaku like Lin Fan.

A few days of double rows have made a lot of progress in the relationship between the two, and the cold and trap-full home of the past has been full of the glory of a harmonious society.
