Chapter 143: What a hell of a life
After Director Zhao left, I began to be in a daze.
How did a good company become like this all of a sudden? How could a good Mr. Fu be demoted to Vice President Fu all of a sudden? How could a good department director be removed all at once? Good Wanting girl, why was she forced to resign all of a sudden?
Is it a living hell?
After thinking about it for a while, I still couldn't figure it out, so I simply didn't want to think about it, and planned to take a nap.
Unfortunately, as soon as I was confused, the BB machine on my waist rang. I thought it was Wanting calling, but I hurriedly replied, only to know that it was the pager of the beautiful writer Deng Yanyanting.
Deng Yanting said on the phone that she has been very busy recently, and she has encountered confusion about the issue of manuscript appointments, and she hopes that I will do me a favor to write a prose manuscript.
She said: "My novel is in the sprint stage, and several newspapers and magazines have not been able to complete the editorial request, so I would like to recommend you to Guangzhou Youth Daily and write an essay for them, which can be regarded as helping me to hand over my errands." At the same time, it also allows you to know more editors, and it is also convenient for you to write a manuscript or something in the future. β
I said, "You helped me in my most difficult time, and I have a hundred reasons why I should help you, but I just don't know if I can do it." β
Deng Yanting said: "I heard Shen Xiaochuan say, you are his pen pal at the Zhejiang Literary Youth PEN Club, is there such a thing?" β
I said, "That's right. β
Deng Yanting said: "Being able to participate in the Literary Youth PEN Club shows that your literary literacy is definitely not bad." At least you've published some of your work, right? β
I said, "But I'm mainly in classical poetry, and I rarely write anything else." β
Deng Yanting said: "If you have a good foundation in classical poetry, it means that your writing will definitely not be bad." We've been in contact twice, and I think you're very smart and have a good sense of humor, so for sure. β
I said, "So what does this newspaper ask to write?" β
Deng Yanting said: "What they want is a story about the life of outsiders in Nanyue, the penmanship of the prose, about 1,000 words, it doesn't matter if there is more or less, and the manuscript fee is 100 yuan per article." It will be more real for you to write than for me to write. Besides, you are a friend recommended by Shen Xiaozhou, he said that you can, of course I believe you! β
I said, "Then I'll try." β
Deng Yanting said: "It's not about trying, but it must be completed, and the latest time cannot exceed three days, and after three days, you have to hand over the manuscript to me, and I will pass it on to their editors after reading it." I can make it clear here, I don't earn a penny from you, which means that you are helping me complete the task, and the manuscript fee of 100 yuan is yours. Once this foundation has been laid, it will be convenient for you to write for them in the future, and maybe I will open a column for you. That's it! β
What a hell of a life! Not long ago, I had the idea of writing for some newspapers and magazines, and now I have a door-to-door request, could it be that my master Shixian Li Bai arranged it in advance? Or did he turn me into a cultural person in the first place to facilitate my life and work?
I thought, since I am writing for the supplement of Guangzhou Youth Daily, I must at least have some understanding of the style of this newspaper's supplement! The newspapers subscribed to by the company include Yangcheng Evening News, Guangzhou Daily, and Southern Weekly, but it does not subscribe to Guangzhou Youth Daily.
I decided to use this lunch break to buy a copy of Guangzhou Youth Daily.
Walking into the elevator, I saw Mr. Zheng and Assistant Ma at a glance, as well as a middle-aged man with a strange body that was a little fat.
I greeted Mr. Zheng and Assistant Ma and said, "Mr. Zheng is good, Assistant Ma is good." β
Mr. Zheng said: "You should say hello to Dong Liu first!" β
I said, "I don't know any Liu Dong?" I only know that you are the company's highest CEO, Mr. Zheng. β
Mr. Zheng said: "It's no wonder that you didn't attend the morning meeting and didn't understand the situation. This is Chairman Liu of our group, and he is our top boss! Chairman Liu personally came to attend an important meeting of our company, which is the first time. It shows how much Chairman Liu attaches importance to our publicity! We were so busy talking about work that we weren't ready to go out to dinner until now. β
I turned to the chubby man and said, "Hello Chairman." β
The chubby man didn't reply, just nodded mechanically.
Turning around, I suddenly felt that this so-called Chairman Liu was very familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a while.
I wanted to turn around and take a look, trying to confirm if I had seen it, but due to Mr. Zheng's presence, I dismissed the idea.
I thought to myself: whatever! It doesn't matter if you've seen it or not, anyway, he's the chairman of the group, and he won't have anything to do with me!
Mr. Zheng said: "This young man is the pillar of our planning department, but he has the ability, there are two major things, in the key moments, it is his wisdom to turn the tide, he is a talent." β
Chairman Liu said: "Since you are a talent, you must make good use of it!" β
Mr. Zheng said: "That's a must! I'm getting ready to reuse him. β
Chairman Liu said: "Such an important talent, why don't let him have dinner with us." β
Mr. Zheng said: "Then there is no need, right? It's rare for you to come to our company and have a meal together, and the people here...... After all, there is a difference between high and low. β
Chairman Liu: "Then follow what you said." There are no weak soldiers under strong generals, since you have such capable people under your command, then I have more reason to believe that my decision to hand over this company to you is right, and it is up to you. β
Mr. Zheng said: "Chairman rest assured, it will be doubled in one year and twice in two years!" β
When I got out of the elevator on the first floor, the chubby man known as Chairman Liu stopped me.
Chairman Liu asked, "What's your name?" β
Mr. Zheng was the first to answer: "Da Long, developed Da, the dragon of the Dragon King." β
Chairman Liu said: "This name is very domineering, developed Dragon King!" But the name will probably give you two different results. β
Mr. Zheng said with a smile on his face: "The subordinates are dull, and I also ask the chairman for guidance." β
Chairman Liu said: "Developed, this is naturally good, and it is conducive to the development of your company!" But people are masters, they are dragon lords, that's not easy to mess with, you have to control the good measure! β
Mr. Zheng hurriedly explained: "That's not the case, chairman, I'm just for the convenience of explaining, just say that, he's actually the dragon who arrived at Da, Ye Gong Haolong." β
Chairman Liu said: "No matter which dragon it is, it's a dragon anyway, you have to be careful!" β
As they spoke, the three of them walked out of the building, and Chairman Liu glanced back at me and smiled kindly.
This one scared the hell out of meβfamiliar! It's so familiar!
Where have you seen it? Why is it so familiar?
I walked as I thought about it, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it.
Suddenly, a person's shadow appeared in front of me, causing me to break out in a cold sweat!
Liu Mazi! That's right, Liu Mazi, this chairman is too much like Liu Mazi! And it happens to be surnamed Liu!
I thought I hadn't woken up just now, so I rubbed my eyes vigorously to clear myself up.
I said to myself, "No way! No way! How could it be! Liu Mazi is thin and thin, and the chairman is slightly fat; Liu Mazi has thief eyebrows, and the chairman is kind and kind-eyed......
Why do you think he is very similar to Liu Mazi? It's two completely different people, how can I feel this way?
What a hell of a life!
I cursed myself in my heart and went straight to the nearby newsstand.
