Chapter 974: Honest Man
Du Fu didn't dare to treat himself as a brother, so he hurriedly bent down slightly, saluted Li An, showed a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Thanks to Li Shilang, since he became the editor-in-chief of Datang Daily, his life has not been tight, the family has never been hungry again, and there is still money left to buy wine and drink." ”
"Haha! Brother Du is still the same, he is satisfied if he can eat and drink, haha! It's too easy to satisfy, it's too easy to satisfy, come, sit down! Take a break with a cup of tea. ”
Li An said politely and sat down himself.
Seeing that Du Fu was about to open his mouth, Li An hurriedly said, "Brother Du, let me guess your intentions first." ”
After a pause, Li An picked up the Tang Newspaper that was still on the table just now, and said with a smile: "If my guess is correct, Brother Du is going to talk about the sequel after Dragon Slayer!" ”
After speaking, he looked at Du Fu, who was embarrassed.
Du Fu nodded hurriedly, moved his shriveled cheeks, and said with an embarrassed smile: "That's right, it's this matter, Li Shilang is now in charge of the Wanli Transmission Project, and he should be very busy, because this matter is indeed a little inappropriate to disturb Li Shilang, but this is also the task assigned by the above, and they refused to come, so let me come over, if Li Shilang is not available, then this matter will be forgotten." ”
As the editor-in-chief of Datang Daily, Du Fu has enough reasons for Ang Lee to continue writing the sequel to Dragon Slayer, after all, as long as this matter is done, it is an excellent thing for Datang Daily, and his boss will appreciate him very much, in short, there is only good and no harm for him.
But Du Fu is also a person who understands the general situation, he knows very well in his heart that compared to writing a sequel to Dragon Slayer, the Wanli Transsonic Plan is much more important than this, and this kind of Dragon Slaying is just for boring people to read, and it will not be of much help to the development of the entire Tang Empire, but the Wanli Transsonic Plan is different, once it can really be realized, for the Tang Empire, the role is immeasurable.
The thought of being able to directly talk to people who are thousands of miles away makes Du Fu's mood difficult to calm down, he thinks this is incredible, and even, more than once, he doubts, that this is a false research and development project, it is an unlikely technology, but so many impossible projects have been completed before, so why can this project not be successfully researched?
Therefore, before Du Fu came over, he was quite entangled in his heart, he was very worried that his selfish behavior would have a great negative impact on the Wanli Transsin Project, but his position is here, and he must complete this important task well, otherwise, how can he be worthy of his position.
The dilemma made Du Fu quite a headache, and in the end, Du Fu still came, but he also made a decision, that is, he would not persuade Li An too much, even if Li An did not agree, he would not have the slightest demand, so as not to delay Li An's time and hinder the Wanli Transsin plan, so that he felt that he would be a sinner of the Tang Empire.
"Hahaha! This is really interesting, the purpose of Brother Du's coming here is to talk to me about the sequel to Dragon Slayer, why haven't I said anything, but you have plans to give up? If your boss finds out, it's a problem. ”
Ang Lee said with a smile.
Du Fu looked embarrassed, and he didn't plan to detour, and said bluntly: "What Li Shilang said is, but I always feel that if we delay Li Shilang's Wanli Transmission Plan because of our Datang Daily's requirements, then we are not sinners, I have also told them such concerns, but no one thinks the same as me!" All my colleagues agreed that Li Shilang was a talented man, and even if he was busy with the Wanli Transphony Project, he could still find time to write the continuation of the Dragon Slayer, so I hesitated again and again, but I still came over. ”
When Li An heard this, he smiled and said, "Oops! They all praise me for my talent, but they don't come to praise me in person, and it's really interesting to give you such a good opportunity! ”
Although he said so, Li An didn't think so in his heart, he felt that Du Fu's fellow colleagues were bullying honest people, which was not a good errand at all, and there was a lot of risk.
In case Ang Lee's Wanli transmission plan fails, Ang Lee pushes the excuse to the Tang Daily, saying that he delayed his energy because of writing, which caused the failure of the plan, then Du Fu, who was in charge of lobbying, would not hit the muzzle of the gun, even if the emperor understood that this was Ang Lee's responsibility, but Ang Lee's importance was too great, and he couldn't put Ang Lee in prison! After all, this plan failed, and what more plans awaited Ang Lee?
But the plan that consumed a lot of manpower, material and financial resources of the imperial court was a failure if it failed, and someone had to take responsibility! It is always necessary to dispose of a few people in order to show the prestige of the imperial court, and by the way to appease the ministers and the subjects of the world, in this case, the imperial court will also look for scapegoats.
Even if the emperor doesn't say anything, the ministers below will immediately stand up and fabricate accusations, for example, someone lobbied the important ministers of the Tang Dynasty to write, delayed the major events of the imperial court, caused the failure of the Wanli transmission plan, and caused extremely heavy losses to the Tang court.
And even if the Wanli Transsin plan succeeds in the end, and writing does not delay Ang Lee's plan, then Du Fu will not get any reward, after all, he is the editor-in-chief of Datang Daily, this is what he should do, and others will not think of Du Fu when they praise Ang Lee.
In short, Du Fu came over to let him write a sequel, but there was no benefit, but he had to bear a lot of risks, which was very unfair, so those colleagues and bosses gave him this heavy responsibility.
Du Fu knew that Li An was joking, so he didn't say anything, and he was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Bullying honest people!"
Li An sighed again, and mourned for the honest man for three seconds in his heart.
It seems that bullying honest people is not a precedent for later civilized societies, in the era of Datang, people also like to bully honest people very much, whoever is honest will bully whom, and who will not bully honest people.
As for why it is always honest people who are bullied, it is because certain traits in honest people can easily become a condition for being bullied by others.
For example, honest people don't know how to refuse, as long as there are colleagues asking for their help, they will agree to it, even if this matter has a great risk, or infringe on their own interests, they will not refuse, in the long run, colleagues will give a lot of things to honest people to do, over time they will form a habit, so that honest people are overwhelmed, at the same time, it also makes many people feel that this is what honest people should do, if one day honest people dare to refuse, they will say bad things about honest people, and honest people in order not to offend people, I had to carry it myself, endure it, and no matter how tired I was, I could only swallow it in my stomach.
In addition to not knowing how to refuse, honest people do not know how to insist, even if their own ideas and ideas are very correct, in order not to offend people, they do not dare to insist on their own opinions, let alone argue with others, for fear that the opposite of others' views will cause contradictions, thus greatly limiting their own development, making it difficult for them to appreciate, and always at the bottom, and then being bullied by everyone, all the unreasonable work has been handed over to themselves.
There is also an honest person is kinder, do not know how to fight back against others, when encountering contradictions, the attitude of honest people is more mainly to settle things and calm people, want to deal with things as soon as possible, rather than reasonably fight for their own rights and interests, in the long run, will make more people ignore the self-rights of honest people, they will think that honest people do not speak enough, do not bully you bully anyone.
Another point is that honest people don't know the cruel rules of survival because they are too kind, the world itself is very cruel, and people are in a competitive relationship, and if you let others gain benefits, you yourself will lose certain rights.
For example, in any unit, colleagues are in a game relationship, although they also have a cooperative relationship, but the game relationship is also very large, such as in the distribution of income, some people do the most work, but get the salary in their hands is not much, and some people hardly work, but the income is higher, these are very unreasonable phenomena, but also make many people who work more and get less money feel a little indignant, but for their own popularity, they can only choose to endure in every possible way, and in this way, their interests will be repeatedly lost. It will become more and more uncomfortable.
In any position, we must learn to be cruel, dare to defend our own interests, and dare to fight for those potential interests that can belong to ourselves, if we don't fight, don't grab, in the end, everything will be taken away by others, and honest people will have nothing.
Du Fu is relatively speaking, he is definitely an honest person in the workplace, he is working diligently every day, there is absolutely no problem in evaluating a model worker, he is simply a hard-working old scalper, and he is also fully in line with all the characteristics of an honest person.
And according to Li An's guess, arranging the position of editor-in-chief for him is not a promotion, just to let him work more, and the salary is not much, and even, it is estimated that it is less than one-tenth of the above leader, welfare or something, it is estimated that it is just like an ordinary employee, doing five times the work, only getting twice the salary, this is the most loss.
"Li Shilang, what is an honest man?"
Because he hadn't heard this word, Du Fu's more serious temper came up again, and he looked at Li An with a puzzled expression.
"Stupid, you're an honest man! Ha ha! ”
Li An said mischievously, and there was a lot of emotion in his tone, which couldn't help but give Li An goosebumps on his body.
Du Fu was stunned for a moment, that old face was full of differences, he didn't expect Li An to suddenly be so naughty, making him feel uncomfortable.
"Haha! Lao Du! Just a joke, your worries are not unreasonable, the Wanli Transsonic Plan is naturally much more important than the sequel to Dragon Slayer, but, in fact, it can't be delayed, in addition, Dragon Slayer has nothing to write about, I'm going to write something different, however, it will definitely be good-looking by Dragon Slayer, and the subscription volume of Datang News will definitely hit a new high, so you can rest assured! A month later, just come over and get the whole book, one book is enough for your Datang Daily to be serialized for a year. ”
Ang Lee said with a smile.
Because he read too many colors in his previous life, Ang Lee's mind is very valuable, and he can take out a book casually, which is enough for the people of this era, and all kinds of later generations are all long stories of millions of words, and there are too many books with more than 300 chapters, and this is enough for a year's updates.
"Li Shilang, what is the title of the book, can you tell me in advance."
Du Zimei's more serious strength came up again and asked.
"Uh, this? I haven't thought about it yet, and when I think about it, I'll tell you, okay? ”
Ang Lee really hasn't figured out which one to write, but as long as it's a famous work, it won't be bad, just choose a well-known one.
The previous writing was basically in the martial arts category, and there has been a certain follow-up, this time, Ang Lee plans to write something else, for example, Xianxia works, once the interview can cause a greater sensation.
After all, martial arts is just that people's martial arts are much stronger than ordinary people, and Xianxia is even more powerful, can fly in the sky, and can live for tens of thousands of years, you can imagine, an ordinary mortal, after hard cultivation, can make himself able to fly in the sky, and can live for tens of millions of years, with a light shot, he can put down thousands of enemies, and even destroy the world, it is enjoyable to think about, at least it is much cooler than martial arts, of course, there are many things that cannot be written, which must be modified, If it is written too badly, such as destroying the world or something, then it must be changed, because it is too terrible and will frighten these ancients.
However, it is still very feasible to write about the immortality in it, and it is still very feasible to increase the life expectancy of a person by about ten times, since a long-lived person can live to be a hundred years old, then, why can't he live to be a thousand years old? As long as you practice seriously, you may be able to succeed, and this will definitely be very infectious, and it will be the content that people like to read, especially those who are a little older, who must be eager to live a few more years, maybe they will practice according to the content of the book? What if it can really be practiced?
However, in order to prevent someone from really cultivating immortals and turning themselves into a wasted person, Ang Lee must write clearly at the end of each chapter that this is fantasy literature, and the content is all fictional, and it must not be imitated, so if anyone goes to leisure again, then it doesn't matter about Ang Lee's affairs.
Anyway, there is time, first deal with some of the things at hand, and then it is not too late to write, but then a small thing that happened happened attracted Li An's attention, and even attracted the attention of the entire court, in fact, it is not a big deal, that is, the emperor is sick, and what the illness is, it is estimated that only the imperial doctor's heart is the clearest.
