Chapter 133: Curiosity
At this moment.
Yu Lanxin felt a little aggrieved.
Shi Rongliang, the author who promised to submit the manuscript before the year, not only broke his previous promise, but also chose to jump directly to other publishing houses.
And this young popular author is in charge of her.
So on the day she got the news, she contacted the other party.
And the reason for getting it is simple.
Treatment issues.
The other company gave higher conditions.
This.
The current Hanlin Literature Society simply can't do it.
What's more, what he signed with the publishing house was the work itself.
It's not human.
There is no such thing as liquidated damages.
That is, he can send the work to whoever he wants.
As for the previous verbal promises?
Come on.
It's just a matter of preference.
It's really your fault.
"Let's not mention this matter for the time being, Yu Lanxin, you know my mind, I don't need to say anything superfluous, right?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting, it's just that I like you."
"I'm sorry, we can't, and I don't like you."
"It doesn't matter, Yu Lanxin, I'll put the words here for you, if you really want me to go back, no problem, as long as you promise to be my girlfriend."
In addition to the mentioned treatment issues, in the end, Shi Rongliang unabashedly threatened her, which can be described as ugly.
Even though they are accustomed to social norms.
Yu Lanxin was still angered by the other party's words.
means absolutely impossible.
When even hang up.
But lost a popular author.
The Hanlin Publishing House is suffering from a big injury.
Editor-in-chief Ni Xianghai is even more worried.
If it was early years.
The loss of an author doesn't really have a big impact on the publishing house as a whole.
But in recent years.
The market is getting sluggish.
The publishing house publishes a lot of works every year.
But 90% of them will basically sink into the sea.
It's not that you don't make money.
It's that the amount of money earned is limited.
In addition, they are a small publishing house.
It's not easy to survive to this day.
Shi Rongliang, who never thought that he would not be inconspicuous, has recently achieved great success with a "Battle of the Deep Sea Pavilion", and he became popular for a while.
Won the eighth place in the sales list for this quarter!
It's just joy from the sky.
But Ni Xianghai was poached before he could be happy.
There is no intention of continuing to work together.
This scene also made him never expect.
If you say turn your face, you turn your face.
Even if he raises the royalties to 30 percent of the industry's ceiling level.
Shi Rongliang was still indifferent.
This shows that the other party's conditions are even higher.
On the contrary, Ni Xianghai hesitated, because he was not sure whether the other party's next work could maintain this level.
It's a bit risky to give it too high.
But he didn't have no way at all.
After all, I heard rumors from employees that Shi Rongliang was interested in Yu Lanxin.
So he planned to let the latter talk to the other party.
Hopefully it will do some good work.
"You just fired me, and I couldn't go to him."
After hearing the name Shi Rongliang, Yu Lanxin felt very disgusted, and now let herself make peace with the other party, which is obviously impossible.
"Lan Xin, although nominally I am your editor-in-chief, I have known your father for a long time, so you should do my uncle a favor, okay?"
Ni Xianghai was also helpless.
I didn't expect this girl's emotions to be so intense.
"I will find an author to replace Shi Rongliang." Yu Lanxin said immediately, although she didn't answer positively, but the meaning was obviously refusal.
"Hey, okay, let's do it first."
Ni Xianghai couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, although he didn't know what happened between the two, his idea didn't work.
I can only go out in person and then continue to talk, if it doesn't work again, then there is nothing I can do at all.
This way.
Yu Lanxin, who hung up the phone, had a complicated gaze.
Patronized and called.
I suddenly remembered that I was still watching a movie.
She was about to go in in a hurry.
I didn't expect to look up and see Lin Hao standing in front of me.
"I'm sorry, I didn't come back for a long time, I wanted to come out and take a look, and I accidentally overheard your conversation."
Lin Hao's words can be regarded as generous, and from the last sentence of Fang Cai Yu Lanxin, he can get some information.
The other party is desperate to find an author, and this author seems to be trying to replace someone's absence.
"It's okay, I should have said I'm sorry, every time I come out, I'm busy." Yu Lanxin shook her head and said calmly.
"Let's go, I'll send you back." Lin Hao said suddenly.
"I haven't finished the movie yet." Yu Lanxin was stunned.
"I can see that you're not in a very good mood, so it's better to make an appointment next time." Lin Hao smiled.
"Okay."
Yu Lanxin felt that it was her two consecutive behaviors that made the other party angry.
She was a little apologetic in her heart, but she didn't know how to explain it when she listened to the other party's words, so she could only follow behind her.
After getting in the car, after driving for a while, seeing that she was still silent, Lin Hao couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to know how to relieve the pressure of work?" ”
"What do you mean. Motion? Hearing this, Yu Lanxin came back from her contemplation, and then said with some uncertainty.
"That's not right." Lin Hao immediately shook his head.
"A good night's sleep?" Yu Lanxin guessed again.
"Still not right." Lin Hao continued to shake his head.
"What's that?" Yu Lanxin couldn't help but ask curiously, although it was a temporary answer, she felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said.
"It's simple, just thicken this place." Lin Hao stretched out a finger and tapped his face.
"Poof, you mean to make me thick-skinned?" Yu Lanxin couldn't help but smile when she saw this.
"That's right."
Lin Hao nodded and said, "As long as you have a thick skin, no problem is a problem." ”
"But how, exactly?" Yu Lanxin continued to ask.
"Method one, you can try to say to yourself, 'I'm a genius.'" Lin Hao said slowly.
"I'm a genius?"
Yu Lanxin muttered in a low voice, and then was stunned: "How do I feel useless." ”
"That's because it's so few times that you can try to say it a hundred times, so there's always a sentence in it that you can believe."
Lin Hao smiled.
Hearing this, Yu Lanxin fell into deep thought again.
Say it a hundred times.
There is always one time that I can believe.
Does it mean a moment of self-confidence?
It makes sense.
"What's the second method?" Yu Lanxin continued to ask.
"Well, the difficulty has escalated, you can try to strike up a conversation with me, or even act like we haven't seen each other." Lin Hao suddenly smiled.
"Talking to you?"
Yu Lanxin glared at him with disgust, then shook her head and said, "I can't do it." ”
"Just kidding, don't take it seriously, and besides, go back and rest early, and see you next time." Parking the car outside the community, Lin Hao said slowly.
"Thanks, see you next time."
After waving his hand and thanking him.
Yu Lanxin turned around and left.
When she gets home.
only to find that my parents were sitting in the living room.
"Why did the two of you go when you came back so late?" Seeing her enter the house, Yu's mother couldn't help but ask first.
"Mom, it's only eight o'clock, and it's getting late." Yu Lanxin was speechless for a while, she usually didn't see her mother so concerned when she was working overtime.
"What's wrong with eight o'clock, the people are gone?" Yu's mother asked.
"Hmm."
Yu Lanxin nodded.
Yu's mother glared at her and said, "You too, don't say let the family come in and sit." ”
"We're not doing well, what are we going to sit in?"
Yu Lanxin's face turned red in an instant when she heard this, and the two of them were now familiar with each other at most, so they were going to take them home to meet their parents.
How can it be so fast.
"What's wrong? Think it's not appropriate? Hearing her say this, Yu's mother suddenly asked.
"Not really, it's just that he's a little younger than me."
Although she said this, Yu Lanxin recalled the contact between the two people, as if the other party was taking care of her emotions.
It seems that only in terms of age can reflect the advantages of his age, and as for other aspects, it doesn't seem to be very considerate.
"It's not that you're small, it's that you're too big, and after that, no one will want it." Yu's mother directly pointed out the key to the problem.
"Mom! How can you say that, girl. Yu Lanxin couldn't laugh or cry.
"Isn't that the truth what I'm saying?" In charge of her daughter's lifelong affairs, Yu's mother has always been unforgiving.
At this time, Yu's father next to him couldn't stand it anymore, so he persuaded: "Let the child's affairs be handled by himself." ”
"I'd like her to take care of it herself, but you don't want to see what this girl is doing all day." Yu's mother was angry.
"The publishing house is already busy, don't blame her." Yu's father said.
"I'll be angry when I say this, how suitable would it be if I asked the relationship to find her a flight attendant? It's good that you're good, you have to arrange this girl to go to the publishing house, not to mention earning more and earning less, a girl is so busy every day that she doesn't even have time to fall in love. Yu's mother said.
"What do you know, what do girls run around every day."
Dad Yu frowned and immediately retorted: "On the contrary, in a place like a publishing house, you can learn a lot of knowledge, and you can also cultivate an edifying temperament." ”
"Sooner or later, you two will be." Yu's mother sulked.
I didn't speak when I saw my mother.
Yu Lanxin suddenly made an 'OK' gesture to her father.
When I went upstairs and returned to my room, my ears were quiet.
Take off your coat and put it away.
She lay directly on her back on the bed.
Not sure why.
At this time, Lin Hao's appearance couldn't help but appear in his mind.
Although they only met twice.
But the other party made a deep impression on her.
Whether it's deeds or words.
Change to the thinking of ordinary people.
At that time in the theater, I would probably ask myself what happened.
But the other party didn't.
Not a word about the work.
I just introduced myself to an alternative decompression solution.
And it's in this conversation.
The irritability in my heart has been inexplicably reduced a lot.
Is it a coincidence?
Or is it deliberate?
Yu Lanxin didn't know.
But she does have a curiosity about the man at the moment.
