Chapter 077: Building a team should be planned in advance
Chang Zheng said to go out to the bathroom and let Huang Haifeng rest in the room for a while. Chang Zheng made a phone call in the bathroom, and he called Chen Jiaqiang. He asked Chen Jiaqiang to do a small favor and transferred Huang Haifeng to the restaurant on the second floor as a waiter.
Chang Zheng is a regular customer of the restaurant on the second floor, and he knows that the waiters in the restaurant work in two shifts. The day shift is from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the middle shift is from 4:30 p.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The work of a restaurant waiter is to clean up the tableware, clean up, guide customers, etc., and the monthly salary is 2,600, which is 200 less than that of a waiter in a bathing center.
Although he earned 200 yuan less per month, Chang Zheng helped Huang Haifeng win the Changbai class. The Changbai shift is a shift that only takes from half past eight to half past four, with one day off a week. Taking this kind of long-white shift is almost no different from the routine of ordinary white-collar workers, Huang Haifeng can use his evening and one day a week off to write, which can be regarded as a part-time writer. In fact, the vast majority of writers are part-time. Working in the bathing center, day and night are reversed every day, and the working hours alone are twelve hours, and this kind of work intensity cannot make Huang Haifeng continue to write.
This kind of internal transfer of a waiter is really a trivial matter for Chen Jiaqiang, the successor, he readily agreed, and said that Huang Haifeng will go to work in the restaurant on the second floor from tomorrow.
Chang Zheng doesn't like to owe people things, and he doesn't like to owe favors. But this time he decided to help Huang Haifeng, so he asked Chen Jiaqiang to ask for a favor. If you owe a favor, you will find a chance to return it to Chen Jiaqiang in the future.
In fact, the dilemma faced by Huang Haifeng is very simple and realistic, that is, he wants to write a book, but he lacks money and has no guarantee of life. The most direct and effective way to solve the predicament faced by Huang Haifeng is to give him a sum of money, 350,000 yuan, and save money to survive, so that he can survive for a year.
Chang Zheng now has more than one million savings, and he can lend tens of thousands of yuan to Huang Haifeng. But he didn't do it, because he knew that dignity was more important to some men than life.
From the conversation with Huang Haifeng just now and Huang Haifeng's words, Chang Zheng felt that he was a man who valued dignity very much. If Chang Zheng took the initiative to lend him money, it might make Huang Haifeng feel that this was charity. But helping him change his position, that is the help of friends.
As for why Chang Zheng wanted to help Huang Haifeng, first, Chang Zheng saw the shadow of his past from Huang Haifeng. He has a kind of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox, everyone is a person who makes a living from the keyboard, since he has met, then he can help it.
Second, Chang Zheng admires Huang Haifeng's talent. Last year, Chang Zheng discovered that Huang Haifeng's style and writing are very similar to the beacon gods on the earth. But writing alone can't make a book, Huang Haifeng still needs further carving, he is a piece of jade with great potential. It is said that the text is like its people, and there is some truth. An author's style can give some feedback on the author's inner character and values.
In reality, because of all kinds of constraints, we can't fully show some of the deepest things in our hearts. But in fiction, we can let our thoughts run wild. Style is all or part of an author's inner personality, you can copy his plot, but you can't copy his style. Therefore, Huang Haifeng's unique style of writing makes Chang Zheng feel that he has great potential, but he just needs a guide to take him on the right path.
Third, Chang Zheng is thinking about the future and the future for his cultural empire. Money, food, and generals are sufficient and necessary conditions for building an empire. What kind of general talent is the most comfortable to use? That is the brother who follows him from scratch and fights the country together. Such as Guan Zhang Yu Liu Bei, or Fan Xu, Zhang Liang Yu Liu Bang.
Chang Zheng needs such generals, and as for whether Huang Haifeng is his own Guan Zhang Fan, it still needs the test of time. But you can pull him into the friends list first and observe him as a key object.
A year or a few years later, if Chang Zheng can establish his own cultural communication platform, he needs a group of powerful and famous writers to be stationed on the site to serialize, and he can't support a platform by himself. Even if he writes a book of 2 million words a month, he can only write 12 books a year.
Twelve books a year is enough for readers! Besides, he can't code 2 million words a month at all, and no one can code 2 million words a month. When Chang Zheng finishes the classic online texts on the earth, he estimates that it will be time to hold his grandson, and then he can only hand over the great mission of building an empire to his grandson.
Therefore, in the early stage of establishing the platform, Chang Zheng needed to lead a team of powerful writers, and the team attacked and hit the ground running.
As for where did these writers come from? When the time comes, it will be too late to recruit people, and you have to start cultivating slowly from now on. Flickering to the great god, it depends on luck, timing, and of course, silver is indispensable. But there must be a few little gods sitting in the museum.
Chang Zheng wants to cultivate Huang Haifeng, and before his cultural platform opens, he hopes that Huang Haifeng will become famous. A few more Huang Haifeng, and the team will take shape. As for whether they listened to Chang Zheng's command after they became famous? That's just one step at a time. But people's hearts are flesh and blood, and only by talking about feelings and then business can we talk about it for a long time.
Of course, a platform requires not only writers, but also rear personnel. However, the team of writers is the core combat power, the heavy cavalry, and the indispensable new force for expanding the territory.
Chang Zheng finished the phone, walked to the door of the massage room, and beckoned to Huang Haifeng: "Ah Feng, let's go, let's go to the second floor for dinner." I'm hungry, I haven't eaten dinner yet, so come and eat with me. ”
Huang Haifeng hesitated.
Chang Zheng stepped forward and pulled him by the arm, "Let's go, pretty boy, I told your manager to take care of you for one night, haha!" Walking. I'll go change my clothes first, and you can change into casual clothes too. Fifteen minutes later, you come directly to the restaurant on the second floor, and I will be waiting for you at the door of the restaurant. ”
Fifteen minutes later, both of them changed into casual clothes and sat in the second-floor dining room.
Chang Zheng pointed to a waiter in the restaurant and said to Huang Haifeng: "Tomorrow, you come here to work, and you are also a waiter, Changbai shift, go to work at half past eight in the morning, get off work at half past four in the afternoon, and have one day off a week." Questions? ”
"Huh?" , Huang Haifeng picked up the cup and was about to drink tea, but the teacup hung in the air for a long time and could not reach his mouth. He looked surprised and confused.
Chang Zheng: "The monthly salary here is two thousand six, which is not much, but it should be enough for you to last for a while." The point is, if you go to the Changbai class, you will have the time and energy to write. If you're lucky, maybe you won't have to work here in a few months, it's just a transitional job. Hey, drink tea, don't keep it held, just say it if you have something to say. ”
Huang Haifeng took a sip of tea, and after he put down the teacup, he said, "Cangshen, why are you helping me so much?" ”
Chang Zheng picked up the teapot and prepared to help Huang Haifeng pour tea, but Huang Haifeng hurriedly took the teapot and motioned for himself to add tea. Chang Zheng held the pot in his left hand and waved his right hand, with a bit of undoubted momentum: "Don't refuse me, take it away, I'll add some tea to you." ”
Huang Haifeng finally stopped refusing to refuse Chang Zheng to pour him tea, and he tapped his right index finger on the table three times, just like typing Morse code, a way for the locals to express their gratitude at the table.
Chang Zheng picked up his teacup after adding tea to Huang Haifeng, and said, "Come, Ah Feng, let's replace wine with tea and touch it." ”
The two touched the teacups and drank their own cups of tea.
Chang Zheng smiled: "Ah Feng, last year, many authors in the same group asked me to help them push their chapters, and I basically helped them push their chapters." Only you, I didn't help you push the chapter, and I advised you to finish the book early, don't hate me. As for why I want to help you, it's simple, because I want to help you. I didn't help you push the chapter last year, because I thought that the more you wrote that book, the more chaotic it became, and you couldn't control the scene anymore, and it was useless for me to push it for you, and readers wouldn't buy it.
I don't recommend your book, but this time, I want to recommend your people. Books are written by people, as long as you can keep writing and give yourself some confidence, there will always be a day when you will come out. I appreciate your writing, but it doesn't work alone. Creativity, plot, characters, and writing, only if you do the first three well, can you give full play to the effect of writing. I'll help you move around, it's not a big deal. So you can reply to me now, come to work on the second floor tomorrow, is there any problem? ”
Huang Haifeng picked up the teapot, poured tea for Chang Zheng first, and then filled himself with tea. He held his teacup high above his head, which was a great salute to Chang Zheng. Huang Haifeng's face was grateful and sincere: "No problem! I'll be on the second floor tomorrow. I'll resume the update from tomorrow. Thank you! Your kindness I Huang Haifeng remembered, the green mountains do not change the green water for a long time, and the same enemy is the protector of the throne, and there will be retribution in the future! ”
Chang Zheng smiled and waved his hand: "Hey! You kid open your mouth and come to the word. Remember, Ah Feng, you are a writer now, not a horse boy, and I am not your boss. You're an out-of-fashion peripheral boy, you have to learn to adapt to your new life. In addition, don't be in a hurry to update, I'll say something unpleasant, your copy of "Nandu Fengyun" hurry up and swing the knife. Although I don't advocate eunuchs, you're in a race against time, so you can't waste too much time on this book. If you want to open a new book, I have some suggestions, I don't know if you want to hear it? ”
Huang Haifeng picked up a Western knife on the table and cut it at his lower body. After the symbolic swing of the knife, Huang Haifeng said to Chang Zheng with a sharp voice: "Long live the master, the slave has been purified. Long live the Lord! ”
