"Brother Li, Brother Wang, you guys go first, I'll take a call."
Li Xiuyuan looked at the caller ID on his mobile phone, greeted Wang Zhitao and Li Boyang first, and then found a quiet place to answer the call.
"Hello, Mr. Guo, I'm Li Xiuyuan from Huangyuan County." Li Xiuyuan reported his name. Although the other party would definitely know it was him as soon as he answered the phone, just reporting his name seemed to be a way of lowering his posture.
"I know Xiuyuan called you to talk about your article."
"Okay, thank you Teacher Guo, I'm listening, go ahead." Li Xiuyuan said politely.
"Well, we've discussed your article in a meeting, and I've fought for it on your behalf. If you want it published in the provincial daily this week, it won't fit in the layout, so it might be placed at the end of page four.
If you can wait, I can help you get a spot on the second edition next week..."
Li Xiuyuan became excited after hearing this. He originally thought that it would be enough to be published in the provincial daily newspaper, even if it was just a piece of tofu. He didn't expect that he could even fight for the second edition.
Although the second page cannot be compared with the front page, the front page of the provincial daily newspaper is of great value. If it can really be on the front page of the provincial daily newspaper, it is estimated that the city will investigate on the second day after it is on the first day.
The second edition is already exaggerated enough.
"Thank you, Mr. Guo. I'll listen to you and wait a little longer for the second edition." Li Xiuyuan expressed his gratitude. This pen is really worth the gift. Literati are very particular and capable.
"Okay, that's settled then. However, this is just an attempt. It also depends on the layout of next week's news. I can only say that I will try my best to get it on page two. If that doesn't work, it may still have to be placed on page three or four. Don't blame me then." Guo Lijun felt relieved when he heard Li Xiuyuan's grateful voice.
Don't say that this new pen is good, but I was a little uneasy. Now that Li Xiuyuan is satisfied, I feel much more at ease with it.
"Of course not, Mr. Guo. I can't thank you enough. I'm so grateful to you for helping me get this opportunity..." Li Xiuyuan was polite for a few more times before hanging up the phone.
After Li Xiuyuan prepared the food in the cafeteria and sat down next to Wang Zhitao and Li Boyang, Wang Zhitao looked at Li Xiuyuan and teased him, "Section Chief Li, what good news is this?"
"Ah? Is that so?" Li Xiuyuan was stunned. He thought he had hidden it quite well. Before entering the cafeteria, he stopped humming the little tune and lowered the corners of his mouth.
"Anything else?" Wang Zhitao looked at Li Xiuyuan and nodded affirmatively: "Yes, you look so smug. I've never seen you like this before you became deputy section chief."
"Haha." Li Xiuyuan laughed when he heard that. Being a deputy section chief is actually a coincidence, and this deputy section chief is just putting himself on the fire. But the publication of this article is different. The gold content of the second edition of the provincial daily is enough for him to eat for many years.
With this qualification, it would be natural for me to work as the new county magistrate's secretary for a few years and then become a deputy section chief or even a section chief. This would be a smooth path.
"This matter has not been finalized yet and needs to be kept secret for the time being." As Li Xiuyuan said this, Wang Zhitao and Li Boyang's expressions changed slightly. Li Xiuyuan always hides things.
But Li Xiuyuan's next words made the two of them smile: "But I'll treat you tonight."
All of a sudden, Wang Zhitao and Li Boyang understood. Brother, you have good news. If you don't want to say anything, that would be a bit strange. But if you are willing to treat us, then we can understand that it is really inconvenient for you to disclose it.
