Chapter 43: Endless
Lawyer Shangguan Jin is naturally Shangguan Jin's ID on Weibo, and when she knew that she was rushed by @ as soon as possible, Zhang Qiuxi's statement had been reprinted hundreds of times, and it was still spreading at a high speed.
"It turns out that Xiqiu is so sharp when she scolds people, and her posture has risen." There are many such feelings in the comments, and he admires Zhang Qiuxi's scolding skills.
Those classic quotations have already been passed on in the original time and space, but it is the first time in this time and space, you can imagine what kind of expressions netizens will have after reading them, when Zhang Qiuxi saw these words for the first time, she also felt that they were amazing classics, and now the reaction of netizens is the same as she was at the time.
"I'm more curious about what happened to Huaguang Publishing Group, what is the reason why Xiqiu is so unhappy with them?"
Although Zhang Qiuxi's statement clarified the matter and let people know that she did not deliberately breach the contract, she did not elaborate on her holiday with Huaguang Publishing House, so at the same time it brought a question to people.
There is no need to talk about this kind of thing in detail, so as not to disgust yourself and at the same time let some people maliciously speculate whether they are really taken advantage of, there have always been many people who make something out of nothing, this is not a good thing for girls, or it can be avoided.
Zhang Qiuxi has now learned to consider problems from a woman's side, which is not to say that her psychology is also changing to a woman's side, but because she has the identity of a woman, so in the end, no matter what happens, she still has to face it herself, no matter how firm she is that she is a man's heart, she can't avoid it, she can only consider it, rather than only standing in the perspective of one of the genders.
Her breach of contract has already become a hot topic, and after the statement came out, it pushed the attention to the highest, and those microblogs were reprinted tens of thousands of articles in just a few hours, and Huaguang Publishing Group soon became the target of criticism.
As a girl, there are many times when you will have an advantage.,If you can sell cute, the advantage is even greater.,She's on Weibo and has achieved good results by selling cute.,Of course, it's not just because of the one-sided support.,There's also reason in it.。
Readers of "Fantasy World" know that although Zhang Qiuxi's serialization in the magazine is longer than that of other authors, it is also regular, "I, Ji Qì People" is a short story per issue, and readers are used to it, that is, because of this, the later story is published at one time, and readers will think that it is her statement on the acquisition of the magazine, which is to express support in this way.
This is probably equivalent to the sudden outbreak of the author of the online novel, the reader was overjoyed, I thought that since Zhang Qiuxi said this, the acquisition of "Fantasy World" must be a win-win situation, and I will really see more wonderful works in the future, but I know that it is a big oolong, and my mood falls directly from heaven to hell.
Now not only can't I see the wonderful works brought by other authors, but I can't even see Zhang Qiuxi's novels, for readers, it doesn't matter at all whether other authors can write wonderful stories, because these are all shadowless things, and Zhang Qiuxi has proven that it is worth looking forward to, of course, she cares more.
As for whether Zhang Qiuxi breached the contract, the opinions of netizens were also divided into two factions, and many of them fans were also worried about her, feeling that it was unlikely to win the lawsuit, their remarks were calm and reasonable, and what they stated was also the facts that Shangguan Jin had said before.
Although there are a lot of people who scold Huaguang Publishing House, they are still very rational at the same time, rather than blindly scolding for the sake of scolding, after all, those who like to read science fiction themselves are mostly adults with mature minds, and they will not be like fifteen or sixteen-year-old brainless fans.
In the eyes of the public, the Qingxi City Intermediate Court accepted the trial and soon held the trial, Shangguan Jin appeared in court as a plenipotentiary representative, and Zhang Qiuxi, the defendant, did not show up.
In fact, just as she imagined, there were dozens of reporters from all over the country that day, and being caught would be equivalent to holding a press conference at the same time.
Law**, "Fantasy World" insisted that Zhang Qiuxi was in breach of contract, and showed the contract as evidence, demanding compensation from him and her. On Shangguan Jin's side, he naturally defended himself with the reasons he had said before, and repeatedly said that the manuscript during the contract period had been fulfilled, and the current situation was deliberately done by "Fantasy World" and should not be compensated.

"Shangguan, I really didn't find fault with you, a private lawyer, and the news report also mentioned your majestic appearance by the way." Zhang Qiuxi looked at Shangguan Jin with a smile, on the day of the trial, she showed the aura of the royal sister to the fullest.
"I'm not happy at all if you say that, but this lawsuit can be won, thanks to the red bean." Although the news report was only praised incidentally, Shangguan Jin was still very happy at this time, this can be said to be the first real lawsuit in her life, and she won.
"Hey, who do you say is Erwuzai?" Hongdou was not happy, rolled his eyes and said: "If I stand on the side of the fantasy world magazine, I can only be considered a second or five boy, now I am obviously sacrificing my life for righteousness." ”
Zhang Qiuxi was a little surprised to win this lawsuit, originally both sides insisted on their own words, the public said that the public was reasonable, and the judge seemed to be very entangled in this, how to judge seemed to be reasonable, and it seemed that they were unreasonable, so it can be said that they gave the court a problem.
In the end, Hongdou stood up and said as the former editor of "Fantasy World" magazine that the rest of the story of "I, the Machine Qì People" was the performance manuscript during this period, and the two parties had agreed to publish one article per issue when the manuscript was delivered, and "Fantasy World" was published all at one time, breaking the promise.
Immediately after Shangguan Jin said that writers are not migrant workers, and creating this kind of thing is not a hard work that can be done when they are full, but requires a process, and the practice of "Fantasy World" magazine does not conform to common sense and creative laws, and it is a forced behavior that does not give the author time to conceive at all.
In this way, the balance of victory tilted to Zhang Qiuxi's side, and the judge ruled in court that the "Fantasy World" magazine had not established the accusation of breach of contract against her.
Zhang Qiuxi said: "Whether it is Erwuzai or sacrificing one's life for righteousness, anyway, the result is that we win, in order to show my happiness, I will invite you to dinner, and go to Huiyu Hotel...... A small restaurant in the alley next to it. ”
"Anyway, I also helped you, even if you don't say something nice to make me happy, can you be more generous when you have a treat?" Hongdou hugged his hands and muttered, "Now I regret it a little, it's really good to repay." ”
"Speaking of which, don't be too busy getting excited, the Fantasy World said in court that they were dissatisfied with the verdict and would appeal, this is not the final result." Seeing them make a mess, Li Yue couldn't help but remind him.
Shangguan Jin said: "There's no need to care too much about this, there is little chance of changing the verdict in the second instance of this matter, at most it is just a waste of time." ”
"It's because there is such time to waste that your lawyer can make a lot of money, anyway, Sister Hongdou is too idle now, and it is okay to let her testify in court directly if needed."
"Little sister, you're getting more and more inches." Hongdou gritted his teeth with hatred, Zhang Qiuxi was still not conscious at all, and said: "Originally, after resigning, I didn't see you looking for a job, so I was left with nothing to do." ”
"Who the hell is this, bastard." Hongdou finally couldn't bear it anymore, and went around to Zhang Qiuxi's back and strangled her neck to serve, although Zhang Qiuxi was suffocated because he couldn't breathe, but he actually felt a kind of enjoyment with his head resting on Hongdou's completely small breasts......
——————
After winning the lawsuit, the matter seems to be over, readers are happy for Zhang Qiuxi but also have their worries, she broke up with "Fantasy World", where to read her novels in the future, this is also the question that readers are most concerned about.
For this question from readers, Zhang Qiuxi can only say that he will not be impatient, and he will definitely not disappoint them, although he has long thought of publishing it directly, but now he has not yet written a single word, so he is not in a hurry to publish it.
Zhang Qiuxi was busy dealing with these rumors on Weibo when the phone rang, it was Liu Jianyuan, the editor-in-chief of the Western Union Press, who had met once when he held a signing meeting before, and he was an acquaintance.
Liu Jianyuan invited her to meet, Zhang Qiuxi was naturally very happy, this was completely sleepy and met the pillow, just thinking about the future publication of the matter he came, during this time the cooperation with the Western Union Press has been very harmonious.
When he came to the meeting place, Zhang Qiuxi first went over to greet him and said, "Editor-in-chief Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, hello." ”
"Hello Mr. Xiqiu, I'm glad that you can accept the invitation of our Western Union University, and soon we will be a family." Liu Jianyuan stood up with a smile, these can actually be said to be close words, but they are completely reasonable.
"It has always been my dream to be able to enter Western Union University, and I would like to thank you for giving me this opportunity." After all, he was also a person who had entered the society in his previous life, and Zhang Qiuxi was not ambiguous when he said polite words.
After a few polite words, Liu Jianyuan said: "Teacher Xiqiu, I didn't expect to find out so many things in just one month, and asking you out this time is actually related to this." ”
Zhang Qiuxi had expected it a long time ago, nodded and listened quietly, Liu Jianyuan continued: "Before, our publishing house received a notice from the Fantasy World, and they asked us to stop the publication of the two books Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy and Restaurants at the End of the Universe, because we are only an agent for distribution, and we have no publishing rights, so we can only helplessly obey the request. ”
"Editor-in-Chief Liu, I can only say sorry to you for this." Zhang Qiuxi was helpless about this.
