Chapter 168: Talking about career
A few people said okay, tomorrow the uncle will go to Xue's house to have a look, and then go to Lu Jingqiu's house to have a look, and then Lu Jingqiu will wait for him directly on Yuwei Street.
After coming out, she also went to the house to take a look, and if she was careful to dismantle it, there were still many bricks that could be used.
But I wasn't in a hurry, and when I went back, I looked at my work and thought it was okay, so I went to the club in the afternoon.
This time, I met Deputy Editor-in-Chief Yang at the door, and said with a smile, "Editor Lu... Jingqiu, oops, I'm used to it, you guys are leaving, the painting and editing department is very deserted, I heard that Luo Xinyue is also in the same class as you, how is school life, isn't it exciting."
"Deputy Editor-in-Chief Yang, we're all quite comfortable there."
Yang Ting saw the album in her hand and said with a smile, "The work is out?"
"Well, you can take a look first."
Yang Ting took her hand, signaled to her, and then turned around and entered the club, Lu Jingqiu followed her into the office, and along the way, Yang Ting had already read the dozen or so illustrations.
It's hard to see if it's a little inappropriate, don't look at her as a deputy editor-in-chief, if she is asked to paint, she really can't imagine such a picture, or how to compose it, the key is that she can't paint yet.
"Every time you handle a picture book, there is not much to change, this picture, you can hand it over to Zhang Miao directly, you don't need to change it much."
"Okay, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Yang."
"By the way, the picture book that participated in the competition in our club this year has now entered the general competition, and I have a good chance of winning an award."
Lu Jingqiu heard this at the moment, not to mention how happy she was, this is something she never thought about in her previous life, she only started working in this life, and she has such good results, no matter whether she can win the award in the end or not, this is a great encouragement for her.
"Deputy Editor-in-Chief Yang, if my work can bring honor to our society, this is worth looking forward to."
Yang Ting likes to hear this, their club has just begun to recover, and they have to make some achievements.
Therefore, for Lu Jingqiu such a capable and good seedling, they are reluctant to let go in the club.
Lu Jingqiu took the painting to the editorial department, and when Zhang Miao heard that Deputy Editor-in-Chief Yang had read it, he really couldn't find any problems, so he didn't need to take it back and change it.
"Jingqiu, what I handed over to you, there is nothing uneasy in our department, and the illustrations on Xinyue's side have also been changed, no problem. By the way, when are you going to start school?"
"Well, the day after tomorrow."
"Tsk, I envy you."
"What, Comrade Zhang, do you want to go to school too? Why don't you take the exam this year?"
"Hey, don't, I haven't touched a book for many years, besides..." Speaking of this, Zhang Miao suddenly touched her stomach, and that gentle look made Lu Jingqiu, who had never given birth to a child, know what was going on: "Sister Zhang, you... Is this pregnant?"
Zhang Miao nodded: "It's just been two months, and I found it a few days ago."
"Wow, congratulations, Sister Zhang. How's it going, is there any reaction?"
"Fortunately, I don't react much, but I'm always sleepy, no, the club also understands me as a pregnant woman, when I'm fine, I nap, and no one says anything, by the way, Wang Meilian is married."
「... So fast?" There was no news of her departure at the time of her departure.
"Well, it's a pity that you're all gone, but we didn't go on the wedding day, just one of us took the five-cent gift money."
"Oh." Lu Jingqiu didn't follow the courtesy, and he really didn't know that he could just pay five cents now.
After staying in the club for a while, there is no work for him or her to do, so he left and went home.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the gate of the compound, I saw Editor Liu of Xicheng Daily: "Sister Liu? You..."
"Oh, Xiao Lu, I'm here to find you."
"Looking for me?" Lu Jingqiu was a little surprised, she used to go to Xicheng Newspaper to submit articles, but this time Sister Liu came over, there must be something urgent, and she hurriedly said, "Sister Liu, come with me to sit at home, talk while walking."
"Okay, I thought I wouldn't see you today, it's really troublesome."
"What's wrong, Sister Liu."
"Hey, our newspaper has now added a new page for story prose, and the page will be changed from tomorrow, but the story we collected, the text can't be added, and our editorial department agrees that it will be better to add an illustration, time is tight, and the page will be typed this afternoon, no, I think of you."
Lu Jingqiu looked at the time and said, "Now I can only draw with stick figures, and I still have time, I don't know what kind of article it is."
When Editor Liu heard that it was a stick figure, he frowned and said, "The stick figure is a little sloppy, Xiao Lu, do you have any drawings in your spare time on weekdays?"
"Yes, quite a few."
"Then I'll pick one of them, and I'll do the same."
Lu Jingqiu felt that this was very good, and after selecting it in a few minutes, it was still too late to return to the unit.
When I got home, I took Editor Liu directly to the study on the second floor and took out all the paintings I usually had: "Editor Liu, take a look, there is no suitable one here."
Because Editor Liu was anxious about this matter, he was also polite to Lu Jingqiu, and even when he came into the house, he didn't have time to observe the Lu family's house.
Originally, the two of them looked for Lu Jingqiu, but they also held the last hope, thinking that if there were no paintings at home, they would draw one casually and get it done in half an hour, but she had just been waiting for her at the door for half an hour, and there would not be much time, but I didn't expect Lu Jingqiu to give her such a big surprise, and she saved so many paintings, hey, this is really bright: "The theme of our story is the ten years of a worker, Xiao Lu, you can also help me choose."
"Workers'." Lu Jingqiu pulled out a few echoes and gave them to Editor Liu, and Editor Liu finally picked out a few.
Lu Jingqiu read the article and picked one out of it: "I'm definitely quite suitable for this."
"I think so, too. However, this is also appropriate for our next article." Editor Liu said, took out another one from it, and said, "We want these two from the newspaper, Xiao Lu, this time we will give two pieces and five sheets."
"Really, Editor Liu." The price of his paintings has risen, and Lu Jingqiu is naturally happy.
"Well, when I came, I already applied for you. Give, this is a strip, this is money. Xiao Lu, Sister Liu won't be polite to you today, I'm leaving now."
"Okay, Sister Liu, I'll send you."
Sister Liu is really busy, their newspaper is not like their publishing house, which publishes a book, which can be grinded for two months, or half a year.
"Xiao Lu, Sister Liu knows that you are good at drawing, but I don't know how you write, you are in school now, you must have a lot of free time, when you have nothing to do, you can submit a manuscript to our newspaper, hey, there are not many people who write now, we have collected a lot, but we have also killed a lot. However, the cost of our call for stories will also be very high." Editor Liu said, and gave her a number. Lu Jingqiu hurriedly said, "Okay, if you have time, I'll give it a try."
Ten dollars for a thousand words, very tempting.
