Chapter 176: Coffee VS Red Dust
"What, you're still working as an editor?"
Hongchen asked curiously.
I have to say that the opening of the coffee still successfully aroused his curiosity.
Especially when the previous book was just sealed, he was in a state of boredom at this time......
- The temptation is really big!
However, he also thought that in other book friend groups, some people mentioned: some small websites usually hire some people to hook up with authors everywhere, switch to their website writers, and give a certain benefit fee according to the number of people.
Don't...... Coffee is also engaged in this kind of business?
Hongchen's eyebrows raised, don't say it, it's really possible!
However, since the other party took the initiative to come to the door, he could only temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart.
- Gambling.
Just like picking up a bottle, in addition to eyesight, the more important thing is timing, sometimes it is not necessarily a good choice to strike later.
"Well, yes."
Coffee replied quickly, "It's the end, are you interested?" ”
"The end?"
Hongchen's expression froze, and the whole person was stunned: Yes, the end point in his impression?
"By the way, don't say it, after all, I'm still galloping and writing a book, and it's not good to say it after all."
Coffee explained.
"Invite me...... Go to the end to write a book? ”
Hongchen opened his mouth, only to feel that his brain was instantly down, and he couldn't react.
He has come a long way from reader to author.
first wrote a legend of licking dogs, but then for various reasons, it was temporarily shelved.
Later, when he arrived at the gallop, he found that signing a contract seemed to be more difficult than he imagined, even if it was shared.
went around and around, and finally had the world of women, and unexpectedly, the day before I could get full attendance, it was blocked because of driving......
Looking back, even the signing of the gallop is so difficult, let alone the end?
Hongchen's brows tightened, and he faintly felt that there seemed to be something wrong in the middle.
"Yes, my true identity...... I'm not afraid to tell you, in fact, it's the editor of the fifth group of the end Chinese network, I think, the book you wrote is very suitable for the end point. ”
"So...... Would you like to give it a try? ”
For a while, Hongchen's heart was mixed.
Happily, what he wrote was finally recognized by others, but the strange thing is that he always felt that this matter was so unreal......
- It's like a dream falling from the sky.
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility: the reason why Coffee reads every book so seriously and leaves a message, is it her, based on the instinct of the editor?
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth still couldn't suppress a smile.
"Calm down...... Red Dust, you have to calm down! ”
Hongchen muttered, twisting his thighs hard.
Pain!
"But...... I haven't figured out what to write yet! Hongchen trembled and typed out a line of words.
His eyes flickered, and he involuntarily drifted to the yellowed notebook beside him.
Didn't he think about it?
Of course not!
For this dream, he has been preparing all the time.
Even when he was picking up garbage, this notebook was treasured and hidden in his arms to record the occasional burst of inspiration.
Of all the scavengers, he was the one who woke up the earliest and slept the latest.
Whenever the snoring is late at night, he will always light a faint lamp, adding some episodes and occasional ideas that come to mind during the day into the framework of one plot after another.
They...... Some are urban, some are fantasy, and even brain holes, as well as documentary literature.
Then, in the cold wind, holding this precious notebook, I fell asleep with a satisfied face.
……
Hongchen shook his head vigorously, dispelling the chaotic thoughts in his mind.
"It doesn't matter, if you have any ideas, you can contact me in time."
Coffee replied: "If there is anything you don't understand, you can also communicate with me in time, after all, I am a professional editor, and it is also my job to help the author." ”
Death for a confidant.
In an instant, Hongchen had an impulse.
Dig out what you have prepared, dig it out from your heart and lungs, and give it to coffee.
It's really too embarrassing to be galloping and writing a book!
The editors you meet are all high-minded and ignore whatever you ask, no matter how humble and kind your attitude is......
In their eyes, there are only so-called KPIs and some gods under them.
Ordinary authors, for them, are like dispensable existences, after all, there are so many people who want to change their fate by writing books......
One more of you is not too much, less of you is not too much.
But the only remaining reason told him not to be impulsive.
He needs to be reserved.
After thinking about it, he still replied: "That, I'll think about it again, I'll contact you as soon as I think about it." ”
"yes, okay."
……
In the office of the fifth group at the end of the line, Coffee pulled his hand away from the keyboard and leaned weakly on the back of the chair.
She couldn't have imagined that Hongchen, who was the first to hook up, would fall into an impasse.
Reading between the lines, she was sure that at a certain moment, Hongchen should have been moved, but it was just ...... Why?
She couldn't figure it out.
After a few deep breaths, Coffee leaned back in front of the computer screen and carefully reviewed everything he had said earlier.
Too arrogant?
No, even compared to before, scolding people and waste in the group at every turn has calmed down a lot.
Too direct?
It's a little, but since it's poaching, sometimes it's better to be simple and rude.
That's ...... Don't have enough chips?
But this is only the first communication, if all the chips are all in at the beginning, then what she will face later is a back-to-back battle!
After thinking about it, Coffee felt that his decision was not wrong, and he could only say that Hongchen should be a little hesitant.
Or......
Coffee suddenly thought of a possibility.
After all, there is a deep bond between Hongchen and some of the authors, and judging from his past performance, he is still relatively direct and emotional.
So......
For a while, Coffee was completely lost in thought, looking at Hongchen's avatar, he felt like a mouse pulling a turtle, and he didn't know where to start.
Coffee looked up blankly, and Starlight was tapping on the keyboard with an excited face.
"What's wrong, Starlight?"
Starlight raised her head excitedly, "Wan Hongzhuang has already passed, but the cloudy wine hasn't reacted yet." ”
"Da Da Da ......"
At this moment, there was a crisp sound of high-heeled shoes tapping.
The two of them looked up, and the familiar black silk heels were again.
I saw Tomato walk into the office with a high-spirited face, followed by a group of security guards with completely different spirits.
"This way, yes, this way, move that table here."
She pointed behind Coffee and Starlight.
- This is a corner of the office, full of all kinds of documents and clutter.
Since the two of them did not have very good grades, the position where they sat was also the edge corner of the office, and any clutter was piled up behind them.
"Who are you?"
At the window, a man stood up abruptly and pointed at the tomato with an angry face.
"Me?"
Tomato glanced at her calmly, then turned his head disdainfully, and continued to command: "Yes, these sundries will be moved to the back of the person, put them better, it is better to fence her up, by the way, remember to leave a way for her to go to the toilet!" ”
"Yes!"
"You, you!"
The woman's whole body trembled, and she pointed to the tomato, unable to speak.
"Not convinced?" Tomato squinted and looked at him, "If you don't accept it, you can hold it for me." ”
"I, I'm going to talk to the editor-in-chief!"
With an angry look on her face, the woman hurriedly got up and walked towards the door.
"The clamoring man is finally rolling."
Tomato smiled and looked at the coffee and Starlight, "Next, we can finally do a good job!" ”
"You say, don't you?"
