Chapter 63: Invincible in the World
After more than half a month of hard work, Nie Congcong finally handed over the first issue of the enchanting magazine to the president Zhao Jin, she not only attached her own second-review opinions to each article, added typesetting requirements, but also did a good job of the edition order and table of contents, after reading the manuscript, you can basically know what the final presentation of the magazine will look like.
When Nie Congcong sent the manuscript, Zhao Jin was not in the office, she put the manuscript on his desk and left a note, asking when to give feedback. Coming out of Zhao Jin's office, Nie Congcong breathed a sigh of relief, she called Qian Yang, Qian Yang didn't answer, she called Xi Yiyi again, Xi Yiyi said that she was outside, and she wouldn't be able to come back for a while, Nie Congcong went to find a hot pot restaurant by herself, and ate a big meal, she was too nervous these days, she didn't even sleep well, she wanted to make up for herself.
Zhao Jin's call came after work the next afternoon, when Nie Congcong was already on his way back, and returned to the magazine after receiving Zhao Jin's call. Seeing Nie Congcong, Zhao Jin asked with a smile, Editor-in-Chief Nie, is it only in front of work that you can be on call, and everything else depends on your mood? Nie Congcong asked puzzledly, President, why do you mean this? You haven't always looked for me for work, but when have you ever looked for me again besides work? Besides, the leader doesn't need me to be there for things outside of work, right? Speaking of the back, Nie Congcong himself laughed. Zhao Jin looked at Nie Congcong and didn't speak, he seemed to want to say something but didn't say it.
While speaking, Nie Congcong sat opposite Zhao Jin, across a table, Nie Congcong played with his mobile phone with one hand and asked, President, what do you think of this manuscript, how many points can you score? Zhao Jin took a bottle of water and sent it to Nie Congcong, and asked rhetorically, how many points do you think you can score? Nie Congcong said, I personally think I can score 95 points, on the whole, the topic selection is good, the life manuscript is fashionable and sharp, the emotional manuscript is sensational and moving, and the commercial advertisement is properly and comfortably, which is very acceptable...... And, most importantly, we have a net profit of at least 100,000 yuan in this period. This should be unprecedented in the magazines we made before, right? President Zhao nodded and asked, since it is so good, why did you give me the manuscript again? Isn't it okay to design it directly?
Nie Congcong listened to Zhao Jin's words, felt that something was wrong, and immediately said, President, as the editor-in-chief, the manuscript is equivalent to the child I gave birth to, and every woman looks at her own child very well. I think it's good, it doesn't represent everyone's opinion, you are our leader, the industry elite, the leader of the famous journal in all aspects, you are more experienced than me, so, I very much need you to give us the political control, quality control, the manuscript only if you approve, I can promote the next step of the work, right?
Zhao Jin was amused by Nie Congcong's words, and sighed, Cong Cong, can't you talk well? Nie Congcong also sighed, and said helplessly, President, I am a companion like a tiger, I don't know when to say anything, you like to listen, or say what I say can make you happy, in fact, many times, I am also very distressed. Zhao Jin said, Cong Cong, if you and Jiayi become one, you are simply invincible in the world, right?
Nie Congcong did not answer this question positively, president, I never expect to be one with anyone, God is fair, he gave me this, he will not give me that, since I can only eat with talent, I will work honestly and do a good job, I believe that in any place, maybe the leader likes to be empathetic, like the same heart to interpret the flower, but also need talented people to do things well, after all, for the future of the leader, the person who breaks the territory is the foundation of his progress, And the icing on the cake is just a pastime after dinner......
Zhao Jin interrupted Nie Congcong, Cong Cong, you are a smart girl with ice and snow, in fact, you can also do it like Shen Jiayi, right? Nie Congcong smiled, President, everyone's energy is limited, and if you are good at this area, it will be difficult to achieve something in the other way. I don't want to be someone else, I just want to be myself, in the work, you just use the strengths of people, and the rest don't have to be difficult, right? Zhao Jin said helplessly, okay, Cong Cong, actually, you know me. Nie Congcong smiled and whispered, I know, leader. Once upon a time, you were someone I liked very much, and you made me know what love feels like, and you know the difference between love and family affection, so I broke up with my ex-boyfriend. You also taught me that to love someone is to make him better, not to uproot him, so I learned to give up. Everyone has their own bottom line, and I will abide by my bottom line, but I will not force others to be the same as me......
After speaking, Nie Congcong looked at Zhao Jin and added, don't continue this topic in the future, let's both be good at it! Zhao Jin was stunned for a moment, he stood up and tried to hold Nie Congcong's hand, but she deftly dodged it. He looked at her with a little flustered expression, but the action of dodging was very calm, he didn't know what kind of struggle and transformation Nie Congcong's heart had experienced, but he knew that they could never go back to the past, this simple and stubborn girl was not something he could control. He sat back in his chair, took a sip of his tea, and gently lowered the cup, tapping his fingers lightly on the tabletop...... He didn't speak for a while, as if he was calming his emotions.
Nie Congcong quickly broke this embarrassing situation and said, President, if you call me after work, you must have a major problem to talk to me, so, the problem of the manuscript, whether it is good or bad, I am mentally prepared, you don't have to worry that I can't bear it, just tell me directly, what do you think is wrong, I will take it back at night and work overtime at night to correct it...... After speaking, she looked at Zhao Jin expectantly, like a female high school student.
Zhao Jin looked at Nie Congcong, who was sitting in front of him like a high school girl, and his heart changed a lot, shouldn't such a smart girl be infatuated with a man like him? There's some talent, there's some power, it's in its early 40s, it's mature, but it's not old yet. With his blessing, she has more room to rise and a better career development, but why can't she go on in front of her? It can be seen that she is a capable and ambitious person, and her desire for money has never been hidden...... This made him very puzzled, and he had to show more love and respect for her.
He couldn't help but laugh when he looked at it, Cong Cong, in fact, you did a very good job in this issue, more than twice as good as I expected. As you said, the most important thing is that you also earned 100,000 yuan, which surprised me very much, I have been in Henan Magazine for so many years, and you are also the first. You can send the manuscript directly to the design and typesetting, and the proofing will be shown to me, do you want me to invite you to dinner? Nie Congcong shook his head, no need, leader, you go home early, my sister-in-law must be waiting for you at home for dinner, I want to go to the night market, I like to barbecue meat in large pieces and drink beer in large bottles in smoky places...... Hahaha, this place is not for you. I made an appointment one by one...... After speaking, she said goodbye to Zhao Jin and walked out, and saw Shen Jiayi walking towards her at the entrance of the building, she smiled at her and left......
