Chapter 454 Literary Consultant
After the interview, Lin Anan was invited over by the provincial newspaper leaders.
As soon as she entered the office, Chang Xinyue introduced both parties to each other.
"This is Vice President Mu of our provincial newspaper, and this is Director Ding of the Provincial Department of Culture."
"This is the author of "Spine", Lin Anan."
Vice President Mu stood up to greet him, "Comrade Lin, welcome. This interview is quite exciting!" He extended his hand to motion Lin Anan to take a seat.
Director Ding pushed his glasses and politely greeted him, "Hello, Comrade Lin. It's better to meet you in person than to hear about you. I didn't expect that you could write such a wonderful work like "Spine" at such a young age."
"Nice to meet you, and thank you for the compliment."
Lin Anan was just trying to make friends with people from the Provincial Department of Culture. Isn't it just perfect to meet them at this time?
Deputy Director Mu did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, also to praise Lin Anan, "The Provincial Department of Culture is very fond of the book "Spine" and is planning to hold a pro-military theme exhibition centered on the patriotic consciousness in the book.
We were just discussing this and would like to ask Comrade Lin to be the literary consultant. After all, you are the author of this book and your awareness is definitely higher than ours."
Lin Anan's heartbeat quickened, but she remained calm on the surface. "Our military region also conducted patriotic education by recreating scenes based on the book Spine, and the effect was quite good.
This is a very meaningful thing, and if there is anything I can do to help, I will do it.”
Director Ding paused!
I didn't expect her to be so easy to talk to.
Lin Anan smiled and mentioned the art troupe, "The Northwest Theater Army Avant-garde Art Troupe has also rehearsed the latest stage play based on the story in The Spine, and it will be performed soon.
If there is an opportunity, we can consider a three-way joint promotion, after all, they are all about soldiers and highlight the spirit of patriotism. "
"Comrade Lin means..."
"The original characters in the book Spine are all soldiers from the Northwest Military Region. If the Provincial Department of Culture is interested in holding a military-themed exhibition, it can consider a tripartite collaboration, which will have a greater impact."
Director Ding thought about it for a moment and actually thought that this suggestion was particularly good. "Comrade Lin, you are from the Northwest Military Region, right? In your opinion..."
Lin Anan said seriously, "Yes, my lover and I are both appointed to the Northwest Military Region, and we are both soldiers. I am happy to serve the people in this kind of good thing.
I think this is not difficult. I will go back tomorrow morning. If the plan is finalized, I will contact the military propaganda department and the art troupe. "
Director Ding and Vice President Mu looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"Then I'll make the decision on this matter. Comrade Lin will serve as the cultural consultant for this event and be responsible for communication with the Northwest Military Region and the Avant-garde Art Troupe."
"no problem."
Director Ding was very satisfied with Lin Anan's straightforwardness. "If this is successful, I will definitely thank you very much."
“You’re welcome. I just want to promote my book and draw more attention to the neglected groups.
My personal power is too limited, and now I have the support of the Provincial Department of Culture, which makes me extremely grateful. "
Lin Anan spoke sincerely, yet deliberately revealed a little bit of selfish desire.
The combination of the two makes her appear non-aggressive.
These leaders are not afraid of you asking for something, but they are afraid that you ask for nothing, and they are even more afraid that you ask for too much.
At present, it seems that everything related to the book "Spine" has great publicity value, and it is obvious that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Moreover, Lin Anan is a talented person and a senior translator of the Northwest Military Region...
"Okay, Comrade Lin, are you busy this afternoon? I'll get the certificate for you when I get back to the unit. I'll trouble you with the communication with the military region."
"Okay, I'll go to the Provincial Department of Culture to pick it up this afternoon. By the way, Director Ding, has the exhibition been scheduled?"
Director Ding paused for a moment, "Tentatively scheduled for July."
Time is just a trivial matter. He can just ask for the details when he gets the certificate in the afternoon. He doesn't understand why Lin Anan had to point it out specifically.
But Lin Anan's next sentence gave him a surprise!
"July... I probably won't be able to attend. I have to accompany the chief to a central meeting at the end of July. But don't worry, I'll make arrangements."
After these words were spoken, the other three people in the office paused!
They are all smart people, what is there that you don’t understand?
Director Ding stood up with a smile and extended his hand politely to Lin Anan, "Then, thank you for your hard work, Teacher Lin."
The changes in his actions and addresses were enough to explain his thoughts.
Lin An pretended not to understand, but stood up politely, shook hands lightly, and said, "See you in the afternoon."
Vice President Mu also stood up and extended his hand, "Teacher Lin, thank you for your hard work today."
Lin Anan shook hands with them one by one, "It's not hard. The staff of the provincial newspaper is very professional. It is worthy of being the most authoritative newspaper in our province."
After the pleasantries, Lin Anan said goodbye.
When they came, only Chang Xinyue led the way, but when they left, they were greeted and seen off by two major leaders.
This is enough face given.
Editor Liu and the other two were talking in the hall, waiting for Lin Anan to come out.
The result... is an opportunity to make friends with leaders.
Editor Liu is such a smart guy. He immediately seized the opportunity, shook hands, introduced himself, and put himself together with Lin Anan.
Needless to say, the result was that I was praised.
Praise him for his vision, praise Yingyuan Publishing House for discovering the pearl~
"Let's go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner. I'll treat you. Congratulations to Mr. Lin on the perfect ending to the interview!"
When the four of them left the provincial newspaper building, Editor Liu was grinning from ear to ear, patted his chest generously, and insisted on treating them to a meal.
"Okay! Let's go to the state-owned restaurant. Teacher Lin must eat something good."
Lao Zhou and Xiao Zhu are both honest and down-to-earth people. Every day they just want to do their job well. How could they have the opportunity to get to know the leader?
But at this moment they feel different!
That’s the director of the Provincial Department of Culture!
He held his own hand tightly and refused to let go, calling him Lao Zhou/Xiao Zhu warmly!
Lin Anan felt amused and thought they were very interesting.
But she sold this good thing on purpose.
For her, Yingyuan Publishing House was an acquaintance that she had with him since childhood, and they had a deep bond.
Needless to say, Editor Liu was a particularly nice person. Not only did he take good care of her, but they were also friends.
Since there is an opportunity that comes easily, it would be better to use it. It will be good for both parties.
Lin Anan was also happy.
"Let's go, Brother Liu is treating us, so we have to eat something good."
"Come on, come on, I have to go back and clean the car after dinner. I have to send Teacher Lin to the Provincial Department of Culture in a bright and handsome manner this afternoon. I can't let Teacher Lin lose face!"
"You are the one who knows how to handle things!"
