Chapter 20. Master Jin Yong
Hong Kong Ming Pao is located on Ka Yip Street, Chai Wan. Although this street is not as prosperous as Wang Kok, Tong~Causeway Bay and other places, it is also a famous commercial block.
In the office of the "Ming Pao" newspaper, the air conditioner was blowing loudly, and people were busy. "Hey, Ali, give me the transcript of today's news!"
"Hey, Ah Quan, bring the health secrets of the elderly in the life column!"
"What about the manuscript, who saw my manuscript?"
……
The noisy office is busy and noisy every day. As a newspaper clerk, you have to do your best to complete every task, or you will become the tail of a crane and pull others back.
At this moment, Chen Xiaoxiao, who had just joined the company, finally finished the work at hand, brewed a cup of coffee, and refreshed herself, and then she remembered what her brother Chen Xiaotang had told her.
Touching the new hairpin on his head and touching the manuscript in his pocket, Chen Xiaoxiao picked up the coffee and hesitated to hand it over to his immediate boss, Editor Sun.
At this moment, Editor Sun called out to her in the office: "Ah Xiao, where did you put my document for me?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly walked in and said, "Right here, I reached out and found the document for him." ”
"Well, thank you." Editor Sun said to her without raising his head.
"Hey, why don't you leave?" Editor Sun raised his head only to find that Chen Xiaoxiao was still standing in place.
"I, I have something I want you to help with...... Chen Xiaoxiao said.
"What's the matter?"
"Can you see if this novel can be serialized? in our newspaper. Chen Xiaoxiao handed him the manuscript of "Searching for Qin".
Editor Sun took it, looked at it twice and frowned, but he continued to read, and then threw the manuscript in the garbage basket, crossed his hands and said to Chen Xiaoxiao in a deep tone: "Ah Xiao, you are a smart girl, since you are my assistant editor, you should have a little eye for distinguishing good and bad articles----" pointed to the pile of manuscripts in the garbage basket, "Do you believe such nonsense?" ”
"No, I ----," Chen Xiaoxiao wanted to explain.
"You don't have to explain, go out, I'm busy. Don't waste my time! Editor Sun waved his hand.
Helpless, Chen Xiaoxiao could only walk out regretfully, as for the draft, after a while, there was no one in the office, and she took it out of the garbage basket, after all, it was the hard work of her brother Chen Xiaotang.
"I'm sorry, brother, I've done my best." Chen Xiaoxiao said softly.
………
The air-conditioning in the office was still blowing.
The absent-minded Chen Xiaoxiao stared at the door of Editor Sun's office, hoping that he would go out and retrieve the manuscript himself. Unfortunately, the door was kept closed.
"Let's have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself." Chen Xiaoxiao got up and went to make coffee.
At this time, a cleaner aunt was dragging a bucket to clean the office, she first cleaned up the paper basket under each desk, and then went into Editor Sun's room, mopped the floor very carefully, and then poured the waste paper in the paper basket into her own trash can, including the manuscript of "Xun Qin Ji".
After doing this, she pulled the trash can again and took the elevator up to the sixth floor, which is also the office of the high-level staff of "Ming Pao".
First cleaned the women's bathroom on the sixth floor, and then she skillfully came to the men's bathroom to see that there was no one inside, and very quickly put the toilet paper into her arms. Then I took out the trash paper I had sorted out and stuffed it in.
She has been working in this company for a long time, and she likes to use the paper here for household use, aren't you a newspaper, then use some waste paper, anyway, men are not afraid of ass.
After doing all this, the cleaning aunt hummed a Cantonese song and was about to go out, and just arrived at the door of the bathroom, she almost collided with a man wearing glasses.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Cha, I didn't know it was you." Aunt Cleaning said respectfully.
The man had an elegant face, and of course he would not be as knowledgeable as a cleaner like her, so he nodded and let her out.
As soon as the cleaning aunt went out, the man hurriedly covered his stomach and entered the cubicle. Recently, he stayed up late and got angry, so he drank more Kuding tea, who knew that he would have diarrhea.
Entered the compartment. Sitting on the toilet, as a literati, it is customary to want to read some newspapers and the like. only to find that he came in in a hurry and didn't bring anything. There was a stack of manuscripts stuffed on the right hand, and I looked at the roll paper but there was nowhere to be seen.
"No, although I have repeatedly advocated thrift and thrift at the company meeting, don't even make it so that there is no rolling paper!" Shaking his head helplessly, bored, he pulled out the manuscript and read it.
At first glance, hey, it turned out to be a novel. But this beginning is too unbelievable, even more foolish than "Journey to the West", how can people run away to another era when they die?
Shaking his head, there is no ** to look at, but there is really nothing to do here. Frowning, the man looked at it carefully, it was okay not to look at it, and he was slowly attracted by the plot inside......
I don't know how long it took, but the man squatted and retreated a little numb, and then he remembered what he was doing.
He was reluctant to take this manuscript to wipe his buttocks, so he had to lift his pants and sneakily ran to the next compartment to get the paper to use.
After getting this, he still felt itchy in his heart, he was actually aroused by the novel just now, and he didn't know what would happen next, how would the author write? The storyline is somewhat similar to the traditional "Tang Bohu dots autumn fragrance" and sells himself as a slave to be a scholar!
Thinking about it again, how can I say that I am also a generation of martial arts masters, I can't imagine that one day I will be hooked by a novel that is not very well written, but has a novel idea, is this retribution? !
…………
Chen Xiaoxiao took a cup of coffee, and as soon as he sat down, he saw his colleagues next door gossiping and said, "Hey, pay attention, Mr. Cha is going to come down to inspect!" ”
"Hurry up and tidy up the things around you!"
"Ah Xiao, do you still have the kung fu to drink coffee? It's miserable to be caught by the general investigation! ”
Colleagues immediately took action and pretended to be dedicated to the company.
Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly put down the coffee, and if it didn't work on the table, he put it directly on the ground, and then took out a manuscript casually, and also buried his head in the number. I complained in my heart, it turned out that playing "busy" was also such a painful thing.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came, Mr. Cha walked in with his hands behind his back, and the staff who were working shouted in unison: "Mr. Cha is good!" ”
The man waved his hand, "You're busy, I'm just asking about something---"
"I don't know what you want to ask, Mr. Cha?" Editor Sun, who had already run out of the editing room to greet him, asked.
"No, it's this manuscript, who wrote it?!" Mr. Cha raised the manuscript high, ""The Story of Qin is a novel, who wrote it?!" ”
Editor Sun was stunned, could it be that this novel made the boss angry?! **Yes, you must know that his old man is from writing martial arts novels, and he has always been extremely strict with this kind of requirements, such a garbage thing, defiled his eyes, and of course his old man wants to ask for guilt!
"Chen Xiaoxiao, you stand up for me!" Editor Sun scolded.
Chen Xiaoxiao was stunned, and when he was slammed into a drink, he couldn't help but shudder, stood up and said, "I didn't, I didn't hand over the manuscript to Mr. Cha." ”
"You didn't? Who believes? You actually jumped the level and submitted it to the boss, did you still take me as an editor in your eyes? ”
"I, I really don't!" Chen Xiaoxiao was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"No, could it have wings and fly over?!" Editor Sun wanted to scold, but was stopped by Mr. Cha and said, "Old Sun, don't complain about this little girl, this manuscript was found in the bathroom on the sixth floor, it is very well written, very attractive, so I want to ask who wrote it, so that it can be serialized in our newspaper----"
Editor Sun was stunned, and Chen Xiaoxiao was also stunned.
What the? Well written?! Isn't it too poorly written?!
The two of them looked at Mr. Zha in front of them incredulously----- the former martial arts master, Jin Yong!
Being praised by a bull like Jin Yong for saying "well written" shows that this novel is very interesting, and being allowed to be serialized by him shows that this novel has strong "economic value".
"Ahem, Mr. Cha, this novel was written by my brother." Coming back to his senses, Chen Xiaoxiao said.
"Your brother? Hehe, that's easy, Editor Sun, you come up with a contract to sign a contract with this young lady's brother, and see if he is willing to serialize this novel in our newspaper. After Jin Yong finished speaking, he turned around and went out. After all, it's good that these little things are handled by your own people, and you don't need to worry about yourself.
Editor Sun stood dumbfounded, and then said to Chen Xiaoxiao: "I leave this matter to you with full authority, you can help me get it done, ok?!"
Chen Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly, "Okay!" I will definitely do a good job! The heart said that his brother didn't know if he had hit the luck, and he would be appreciated by the "martial arts master" Jin Yong!

In the early eighties, martial arts novels in the mainland were popular, but they have begun to decline in Xiangjiang, and I miss the time when I hid in the bed to read martial arts novels, I miss the night when I went out to rent books through the window of the house next door, and I miss watching the sex~ The tragic situation of loving martial arts was caught red-handed by my father;
