Chapter 17: Elite's New Magazine
Seeing that Zhang was very restrained and worried, she was sitting in the barbecue restaurant, looking around around very uncomfortably, not knowing what to do at all.
In any case, she didn't expect that her first meeting with the cartoonist as an editor would turn into a dinner at a barbecue restaurant.
Seeing the appearance of Teacher Li Yalin and the other two girls discussing in a low voice on the other side, she couldn't help but tense her body.
How did it come to this?
"Sound sand editor, just order whatever you like, don't be too polite."
Yinsha saw that Zhang was flustered, but Li Yalin discussed the menu with Zhinai and Lishi, but the three of them determined what they wanted to eat, but Yinsha saw that Zhang still didn't move.
It's really funny how nervous she looks, and she's supposed to be in the lead as an editor.
Although he was sighing in his heart, Li Yalin remained silent on the surface, and handed the menu to Yin Sha Jianzhang with a smile, since he had decided to invite people to dinner, he couldn't leave the guests aside.
After all, he can be regarded as a host.
"No, no, I'm not really hungry, teacher, you don't have to worry too much about me......"
Although Li Yalin said that he was going to have a treat, how could he really calm down and order food when he saw Zhang's flustered mood at the moment?
Busy waving her hands, she really didn't have the heart to order, even if she was really hungry right now.
"Well, in that case, let's do as we like."
It's all on this and you still don't say you're hungry?
Surprised to look at Yin Sha and see Zhang, Li Yalin was speechless at the same time, but also understood that she was indeed too nervous now, knowing that there was no need for her to force in this situation, she shook her head and took back the menu, turned around and called the waiter.
The nervous editor girl didn't care for the time being, this is a long-lost meat, of course, you have to eat a big meal, delicious pork belly tenderloin or something, Li Yalin had already investigated it before coming, and all the special delicacies were ordered on the table.
Especially the chicken skewers and vegetable skewers in this store, I heard that they are still secret dishes, and they must not be missed, but it's a pity that he is a minor now, and the ones he brought are all girls, so it's impossible to drink or something, only one cup of Calpis per person, which is counted as a drink for a meal.
"I'm moving!"
The barbecue restaurant that Li Yalin and his party came to is semi-self-service, and they can call a waiter to help with the barbecue, or they can experience the fun of barbecue by themselves.
The tender beef sizzled on the grill, and the aroma of the meat soon filled the entire small private room, and Li Yalin was quite confident in his barbecue skills.
Once the delicious beef is roasted, it's time to feast.
Zhinai and Li Yalin are already very familiar with Li Yalin, when Li Yalin sandwiched the barbecue into their plates, he said thank you softly and started, but Yinsha saw that Zhang obviously didn't expect this result, Li Yalin had just given her the barbecue clip, and she was immediately at a loss.
"Tone sand editor, if you don't eat the barbecue hot, it won't taste good."
Li Yalin doesn't want to waste time in this regard, in his opinion, the delicious food has been served, and not eating it is the biggest waste, since they are all here, don't be reserved, and enjoy the delicious food as soon as possible is the best choice.
"I ...... I started ......"
Seeing Li Yalin talk about this, Yin Sha, who originally wanted to shirk it, was suddenly dumbfounded, even if her experience was low, she could see what Li Yalin meant, and subconsciously picked up the dinner plate, her pretty face was red thoroughly.
This time in front of the teacher, it's really a shame!
But...... The meat grilled by Mr. Li Yalin is really delicious......
It is said that the wine table is the best place to get closer to each other, but in fact, the same is true at the dinner table, even if you don't drink alcohol, after eating a meal, you can get acquainted with each other.
Needless to say, Zhinai and Li Shi have gotten along very well with these two girls after this period of contact.
Although Yin Sha saw that Zhang only met everyone for the first time today, she was not a girl with a city mansion, it was better to say that she was far more pure than she imagined, at least under the drive of Li Yalin, she was unconsciously integrated into this small circle.
After eating, Li Yalin finally learned her intention from her.
"Elite's new magazine...... I see. ”
As Otosha said before, she is indeed a rookie editor affiliated with Elite Publishing House, but the editorial department of Elite Publishing House is also divided into many departments, and the division of labor is also different.
The department to which Otosha saw Zhang belonged received a task not long ago - to create a brand new magazine under the leadership of the department's editor-in-chief.
If it's just a simple creation of a new magazine, then there's nothing to say, but the crux of the matter is that the editor-in-chief of Otosha's department has made a gambling agreement with the editor-in-chief of Elite Publishing House, and if the new magazine can't reach the scheduled sales, not only the new magazine will be cut in half, but even the staff of the department will be affected.
Disputes within the company are not uncommon, and Li Yalin has not experienced it, and he is very calm when he hears this, but Zhi Nai and Lishi, who have never seen or heard this kind of thing, are filled with righteous indignation after hearing it.
After all, they knew Yinsha and Zhang, so they naturally stood on the side of Yinsha and Zhang, and began to be hostile to the editor-in-chief.
In this regard, Li Yalin will not express his position at all except shrugging his shoulders, what he really cares about is Yinsha's next words.
According to Otosha Zhang, her editor-in-chief attaches great importance to the comic of Maoyan, and believes that as long as Maoyan can land in the new issue, it will definitely create sales results that have never been seen before or since.
So her task this time is to invite Li Yalin no matter what, and ask him to join the new magazine and become a signed cartoonist of the new magazine.
"Please give us Cat's-Eye!"
Speaking of business, Yin Sha saw that Zhang's momentum suddenly became full, and in this small private room, she actually knelt in front of Li Yalin, and directly gave Li Yalin a big bow in front of Zhinai and Lishi.
This imposing invitation is really impossible to refuse.
But......
"It's okay to hand over Cat's-Eye to you, but you don't seem to have explained to me what the new magazine will give me."
Pressed his temple, Li Yalin looked at the sound sand in front of him speechlessly, this girl is indeed very imposing, yes, kneeling and bowing, it is no different from kowtowing, it is enough to see her sincerity.
But the question is, isn't it generally appropriate to give benefits in this case?
You haven't even explained the money, how can I sign a contract with you?
