Chapter 035: Interview Matters
"Minister, my aunt read the outline you sent her and said it was very good. I hope to talk to you in person, and let me introduce you to meet tomorrow for dinner. May I? ”
This is the message that Zhou Pei sent to Han Yi last night.
After chatting with Teacher Liu in WeChat for so long, Han Yi also wanted to meet her, so today, the first day of the weekend, I went to meet her with Zhou Pei.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, he was in a very petty bourgeois café, Han Yi has never liked this kind of environment, there is no reason, whether it is for him to drink coffee or read a book there, he can't do it. He mostly drinks instant coffee, and he doesn't pay attention to these at all, for such a cup of coffee can be enough for him to buy dozens of packs of instant price, which is just a hidden cost of the environment and services, he is unwilling to accept, and he is not so capital to pay attention to. Of course, he won't show this, although he has never been to this kind of place, but fortunately, he has watched a lot of Korean dramas, and he basically understands a little bit of these, otherwise it makes people feel like a dirt bun.
"Hello, Mr. Liu!" When Han Yi and Zhou Pei entered the store, Teacher Liu was already sitting there, he said hello from a distance of several meters, and walked over quickly.
"Hello, Han Yi." Teacher Liu looked very elegant, after walking in, she stretched out her hand to shake hands with Han Yi, he quickly stretched out his hands, this may be an instinctive reaction, he didn't know if it was suitable or not, and said a few times in a row "Hello!" Hello! ”
After seeing her sit down, Han Yi also sat down, and by the way, he looked around, there were many professionals here reading books or knocking on laptops.
"Our magazine is on it, and I'm still working today, so I'll trouble you to make a trip to accommodate me and choose to meet here." Teacher Liu is very kind, and in Han Yi's opinion, this kind of accommodation should have been.
"No, we don't have a class today, so it's very convenient."
Han Yi was still a little nervous in her heart, after all, it was the first time they met, and although she was kind, she had a strong aura, and it was understandable to be nervous.
"Minister, don't be too restrained, my sister-in-law is very good, and it's not a big deal, don't be nervous." Zhou Pei could see Han Yi's nervousness, because he was usually not like this in front of her, he spoke neatly and neatly, and he had a feeling of pointing out the country, but at the moment he was cringing and spitting when he spoke.
"Pepe, go and help Han Yi order a drink, just let me talk to her." Teacher Liu whispered to Zhou Pei.
"What do you drink, Minister? I'll help you out. ”
Han Yi still didn't let go a little, but it didn't have any effect.
"Whatever, I'm not particular about it."
"Then I'll look at it, you talk."
"Han Yi, I see that the novel in your club's journal seems to have been written by you last year, and I read the one you sent me last week, and it's pretty good. Originally, the editor in charge should contact you, but you didn't publish it on the Internet, and you didn't submit it to our magazine, so even if people think you write well, they can't contact you. I happened to read it from your club's journal, this subject is very novel, and such a story will be quite popular, and I think it would be a pity if I didn't write it completely, so I took the liberty to talk to you. ”
Teacher Liu's words made people have no way to refuse, and Han Yi is very grateful to be able to get her attention and appreciation. He doesn't ask for praise from others when he writes, and he doesn't care if no one looks at him, it's just his hobby, but as long as he gets the affirmation of others, he will be very happy, I don't know if this is a bit contradictory.
"Because I'm a science boy myself, writing is just a hobby, and I do write a lot of things that are saved in the computer, not for others to see, and I have never submitted a manuscript to anywhere, and I have never thought about who will like it, and I am quite happy if you say you like it." Han Yi said and smiled slightly, when something that he had never hoped for suddenly happened so naturally, there would still be a different feeling.
"I like the story you wrote, and I've read your other works, mostly in prose, which is very comfortable to read. I have a friend who is a publishing house, and you can continue to enrich the content of this novel according to the outline you wrote, and you can write a very good work, and I believe that there is great commercial value, in terms of my editor's work for so many years, the first is that your subject matter is very good, and there is basically no such type on the market now, the second is that from the perspective of short stories, the story is also very good, and the third is that your writing is also very good. With these conditions, I believe that there will be very good results······"
Mr. Liu told Han Yi a lot of professional suggestions, as well as the market of their industry and their predictions for the prospects of this novel. There is no doubt that Han Yi was moved by her.
"Cappuccino, Minister, slow down!" Zhou Pei handed the coffee to the small table in front of Han Yi, and then said to her aunt, "Auntie, you have to reimburse me for this, right?" ”
"Then it depends on whether you, the minister, can write this novel well." She seemed to have seen through his thoughts and had already concluded that Han Yi would accept her suggestion.
"You only need to be responsible for writing it, and you can rest assured that you can sign it for you to do it." Mr. Liu had already begun to make verbal promises to him, and such happiness seemed to come too suddenly, which made him wonder if he could write it well.
"I can't guarantee it, I'll go back and write it first, insist on writing it every day, and I'll show you the rough prototype when it comes out, okay?" Han Yi didn't agree to anything immediately, what he did depended on his mood, and if he could convince himself after thinking about it, then he would do it. At the moment he felt that he could only give such an answer.
"Of course, you can contact me at any time!"
Although it was the first time to meet Han Yi, she also chatted a lot on WeChat, she liked the way Han Yi chatted with him and the tone, and also appreciated that he had his own ideas, and after meeting, it added points to his overall situation.
On the way back to school, Han Yi said to Zhou Pei: "Why do you always call me minister?" Look at your aunt is the deputy editor-in-chief of a magazine, and it's embarrassing for me to call me that. I'm not allowed to call it that way in the future! ”
"It's called Shunkou, so what should I call you? Han Yi? ”
"Yes, just call me by my name, it always feels weird to be called the minister, change it in the future!"
"Got it! How are you talking? My aunt has also helped many people to get their books published smoothly before, and she has obtained good results, which can help others and bring benefits to herself, a win-win situation! I envy her. What I'm studying and doing has something to do with the kind of work she does, and when I graduate, she said she'll take me into their business. If you have any good work to give me, I'll do it for you! Zhou Pei said with a smug smile.
"Have you made a career plan so quickly?"
Han Yi didn't seem to have seriously thought about what would happen after graduation.
After talking with Mr. Liu, he knew that what he had to do now was to write this novel well, just like Fu Bo said, he was busy just as an excuse, and the most important thing should be time.
