Song Langqing met her gaze and explained, "I have read the article you published in the Jinghua Military News. It is very well written, with profound ideas and not stiff. It is easy to accept and more convincing.

Unlike some articles that are preachy and forcefully instill the author's ideas, I think it is very suitable for you to write an article to promote the exhibition."

Li Xia understood the hidden meaning.

It seems that the person who is preaching and forcefully instilling the author's ideas must be Zhang Xiting.

Zhang Xiting didn't say anything and didn't look impatient, because he was sure that Minister Wei would not agree with Song Langqing's suggestion.

This guy called Li Xia, it’s his first day at work, he’s so young, how could he not know how immature the articles he writes are?

Asking her to write the promotional poster for the exhibition, isn't that ridiculous?

Unexpectedly, Minister Wei said, "I have read Li Xia's article. What Xiao Song said is right. It is indeed well written. In this case, the two of you will be responsible for the publicity of this exhibition."

At this moment, Zhang Xiting stood up from his seat and said, "Xiao Wei, I know Xiao Song's ability, but Li Xia just started work today. How can you give her such an important task? Isn't this nonsense? I was the one who wrote the promotional posters in previous years."

Wow, he actually calls Minister Wei "Little Wei". It seems that this person does have some background. No wonder he acts so arrogantly.

Minister Wei smiled and said, "Old Zhang, I am considering your age and want you to rest more and relax. Also, we old people should give young people more opportunities to show their talents! Li Xia's articles are indeed very well written. Let's give her a chance to gain experience and she will be in charge this year."

After saying this, Minister Wei found an excuse to go back to his office.

Zhang Xiting glanced at Li Xia and Song Langqing and snorted, "Xiao Wei is making decisions more and more frivolously now. Such an important matter is actually handed over to young people like you. Our army will also be embarrassed when the time comes."

Song Langqing said, "Then there's no need for you, Mr. Zhang, to worry about it."

Li Xia raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are amazing. Not only can you write, but you can also calculate. I haven't even started writing yet. If you finish writing, will the army be embarrassed? It seems that the ancient saying that one knows one's destiny at the age of fifty is true!"

As soon as Li Xia finished speaking, the corners of Song Langqing's mouth slightly raised.

Several other colleagues in the office couldn't help but hold back their laughter.

When Zhang Xiting heard Li Xia say that he was amazing, his expression was initially contented, but the next moment his face turned green.

On the surface, Li Xia's words were a compliment to him, but in reality they were a mockery of him for being so conceited despite his age!

"Hmph, since you are so confident, I'd like to see what good stuff you can write!" Zhang Xiting snorted.

Li Xia nodded: "Okay, but that has to wait until I finish writing it!"

Haha, what I hate most are people who take advantage of their seniority and look down on others.

Relying on his little qualifications, he talks about this and scolds that every day, as if he thinks others are afraid of him if he doesn't say a few words back.

Seeing Zhang Xiting's eyebrows raised in anger, Li Xia was in a very good mood and even typed much faster.

So on her first day at work, Li Xia took on an important job.

Song Langqing told her privately about the content of the promotional poster. In fact, her main responsibility was to write articles that could showcase the style of our army.

"Leave the drawing and photography to me," Song Langqing said. "Don't feel pressured. What I said today came from my heart. Your article is indeed well written, and you are fully capable of doing it."

Li Xia nodded: "Okay, I understand."

Song Langqing thought she would be nervous, but unexpectedly she acted quite relaxed.

He once again looked at Li Xia with admiration.

…

Return home in the evening.

Gu Weicheng asked, "How was your first day at work? Are your colleagues easy to get along with?"

Li Xia leaned in Gu Weicheng's arms and told him what happened today.

When Gu Weicheng heard that Li Xia would be in charge of this year's military propaganda exhibition, his eyes lit up.

He said, "It seems that your leaders value you very much. Although the propaganda report may not sound like much, it will be submitted to the central government. If our army's report can stand out, your article may even be seen by the Prime Minister!"

Wow!

I didn't expect that this promotional poster was so important. No wonder Zhang Xiting attached so much importance to it and was determined to get it.

Li Xia couldn't help but get excited when he thought that the article he wrote might very likely appear in front of the Prime Minister.

"Wife, please write well. I have confidence in you!" Gu Weicheng said affirmatively.

An An also cheered up: "Mom, I believe in you too!"

Seeing the father and son who were so confident in him, Li Xia also felt full of confidence.

She nodded and said, "Well, the minister said that I have two months to prepare. I will do my best to write the best article for the prime minister to see!"

…

On the other hand, the news that Li Xia's article was published in the newspaper and he was transferred to the propaganda department of the army spread in the family compound.

Among the family members' gossip, Li Xia is the most talked about person recently.

"She is Captain Gu's wife. I never thought she could write articles and publish them in newspapers! She was even transferred to the propaganda department of the army!"

"Isn't it said that only college students can join the propaganda department of the army? Why did I hear that Captain Gu's wife only graduated from junior high school? And I also heard Captain Su's sister say that Captain Gu's wife's academic qualifications are not as good as hers, so the radio station doesn't want Captain Gu's wife."

"Yes, that's why I say she's amazing. Others who want to get in have to be college students, but she can get in even though she's only in junior high school. Isn't that amazing?

As for Captain Su's sister, don't mention it. Doesn't Xiao Ding's sister work at the radio station? I heard from Xiao Ding that her writing is not good at all. So what if she graduated from high school? The director of the radio station said that if she can't write articles again, she will be fired! "

"I never thought that Captain Su's sister, a high school student who is a capitalist, would write an article that is not as good as Captain Su's wife. Tsk tsk, it's really embarrassing."

"By the way, Captain Gu's wife must have received a lot of royalties for her contributions to the newspaper, right?"

"There must be some, but I don't know how many."

"I guess it's about a month's salary. I heard from others that writing articles is very profitable. Before I came with the army, my neighbor's daughter submitted articles to magazines. If the magazine accepted the manuscript, I could get 20 to 30 yuan each time."

Li Chunmei was also there when these people were chatting.

When she heard that Li Xia's royalties might be as much as twenty or thirty yuan, her eyes lit up.

Twenty or thirty yuan! That's too much!

Just by writing casually, you can earn the same amount of money as an ordinary worker can earn in a month?

Li Chunmei thought that if she could also write articles and submit them to newspapers, wouldn’t she be able to earn so much money?

If she could make so much money, she would wonder who would dare to look down on her for not being able to give birth to a son!

But she didn’t even finish elementary school, how could she write articles?

By the way, she can ask Li Xia to teach her how to write!
