Chapter 38 Attend the Annual Meeting
Two days later, Xiao Wu's "**City" was finally on the shelves, and under the vigorous promotion of leek shells, **City's collection has also increased significantly, but the subscription situation is still not very ideal.
In the previous life, the first subscription of "**City" [the subscription of the first chapter VIP chapter within 24 hours] was only a dozen, although the results in this life were better than those in the previous life, but they were only just over 100, and such results were almost not even mixed with the subsistence allowance.
Xiao Wu looked at his dismal results, and his mood fell to the trough again.
"Shell, I'm hitting the street again." Xiao Wu sighed helplessly and sent a message to Ji Ran.
"Little Wu, don't be discouraged, although the results this time are not ideal, at least there is progress compared to last time, isn't it?" Ji Ran still enthusiastically encouraged.
"There is progress, but I still hit the street, the rent is about to expire, and last month's rent is still owed, so I have to go out and find a job first." Xiao Wu said helplessly.
Xiao Wu's helplessness at this time is actually the same as the helplessness of many Internet writers, Internet writers are also people, and they also need to live, and they work hard for a few hours a day to make a living, in fact, they also want to exchange a little money to make a living, the popularity of the gods is high, and the natural income is quite rich, however, most Internet writers are still struggling at the bottom of the life line.
Especially the writers who hit the street, they can't even get the most basic living security, many originally talented writers have to give up halfway because they didn't get the security of life in the early days of their careers, and now Xiao Wu is facing this realistic and serious problem.
"Little Wu, what's your bank card number?" Ji Ran knew that Xiao Wu was a very talented author, and in her previous life, she was also one of the platinum gods she admired very much, she didn't want such a talented person to leave like this, and she didn't want her mother to have the hatred of the pearl in the sea.
Fortunately, Ji Ran's remuneration has been increasing for several months, and he has accumulated some savings, in addition to his own living expenses, there is also a lot of money left, and some of this money is used to help Xiao Wu, and I think it should be.
"My bank card number?" Xiao Wu asked strangely.
"Yes, I still have some money here, I'll call you five thousand first, you use it first, if it's not enough, then tell me okay?" Ji Ran replied to the message.
Seeing Ji Ran's information, Xiao Wu couldn't believe his eyes, he had only known Leek Shell for just two months, it can be said that he was basically still in the Internet stage, at most he could only be regarded as a netizen with a good relationship, and he hadn't even met in reality.
"He" would lend me money? It's 5,000 when you borrow it?
"Little Five? Are you there? What is your card number? Ji Ran sent another message.
"Shell, I appreciate your kindness, but we haven't met in reality, and you and I don't know each other very well, so you don't have to lend me money, I can support myself." Xiao Wu replied.
"Little Wu, although we are not very familiar with each other in reality, we have known each other for more than two months, right? Even if the network is virtual, but we are all real behind the virtuality, right? Even if we haven't met in reality, can we be good friends if we are different?
Isn't it right to help a friend who is in trouble?
Xiao Wu, if you still regard me as a good friend, tell me your bank card number, okay? I'm waiting for your news. Ji Ran replied sincerely.
Xiao Wu looked at the message sent by the leek shell, and felt inexplicably moved in his heart, perhaps, it was Ji Ran's kindness and sincerity that moved him.
Xiao Wu thought about it again and again, but still told Ji Ran his bank card number and real name, two days later, Xiao Wu's bank card really had 5,000 yuan more, although this money is not much, but for Xiao Wu at this time, it is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, making him Jedi again.
At the same time, Xiao Wu's favorability towards the enthusiastic netizen of leek shells has suddenly increased a lot.
"Shell, thank you for your support and help, when I have the money, I will definitely pay it back." Xiao Wu said gratefully.
"Okay, then work hard, I believe you will succeed." Ji Ran smiled and encouraged.
Ji Ran helped Xiao Wu get back up from the trough, and at this time, it was already the end of the year, and Ji Ran's star change had reached two million words.
In 03, this is already a super-long giant novel, and the popularity of "Star Change" has gone all the way, and the results have climbed to the top five positions on the overall list.
And Ji Ran, as the author of "Star Change", also won the crown of the newcomer king of Dadian Niang in 03 without any suspense, and received an invitation from the editorial department of Dadian Niang to participate in the annual meeting of Dadian Niang in 03.
Looking at the invitation to the annual meeting of Dadian Niang in his hand, Ji Ran's excited little hands trembled slightly, which means that Ji Ran can get together with the gods of today's Internet industry, and can also talk face-to-face with the editors of Dadian Niang, and even be friends with them, which will definitely be of great help to his future development.
"What? Are you going to the Oriental Pearl City for the annual meeting? ”
Hong Dali had long been accustomed to the feeling of being with Ji Ran every day, and suddenly heard that Ji Ran was going to leave for a few days, and he was still a little reluctant in his heart.
"Yes." Ji Ran smiled and nodded, "Dali, take care of yourself in the few days I'm away, remember not to eat cold food, don't play too late at night, remember to rest early." ”
"Oh, I know, but are you going to do it alone? Do you want me to accompany you? Hong Dali asked worriedly.
"Hehe, I'm not a child anymore, and I still need you to accompany me? It's okay, you can rest assured. Ji Ran smiled and shook his head.
"Oh, okay, by the way, you take this, remember to call me if you have something, and report to me every day." Hong Dali stuffed his mobile phone to Ji Ran and carefully advised.
"Yes." Ji Ran smiled and nodded.
A few days later, Ji Ran came to the station accompanied by Hong Dali, and when they were about to separate, Hong Dali stood on the platform and cried stupidly.
"Dali, don't be like this, the big man is still crying, how bad is it to be seen?" Ji Ran took out a tissue and helped Hong vigorously wipe his tears.
Hong Dali nodded in a choked voice, "Xiao Ran, come back early, I miss you very much." ”
"Got it, okay, the train is leaving, I'm going to get on." Ji Ran took the suitcase in Hong Dali's hand, and Hong Dali reluctantly let go of Ji Ran's white little hand.
The train started slowly, Ji Ran smiled through the window, waved his hand at Hong Dali, and Hong Dali could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart, shouted Ji Ran's name, and ran with the train, until the train gradually moved away and gradually disappeared from view.
