In response to Wen Ying's question, Xie Qian just smiled.
Well, it doesn’t matter. Even if a male god keeps things in suspense, he’s still a male god!
Wen Ying agreed to publish the verdict in the Chengdu Evening News. The evening news hurriedly made space for this matter, and Zou Weijun sent Xiao Niu to follow up on the matter.
"The Chengdu Evening News still needs a personal biography of the author. Wen Ying said it can be made public, so we don't have any concerns."
As soon as Xiao Niu left, Zou Weijun began to pack up his personal belongings on his desk.
During this period, Zou Weijun has been busy with work. She is going to take up a new position at Rongcheng Literature and Art Publishing House. Although she is moving from her current office building to the next door, she has actually been promoted.
Editor Wan was so envious that his eyes turned red.
Editor Wan, who is also a publishing editor, worked so hard that his hair became bald but still couldn't become the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, but Zou Weijun was promoted so quickly!
But what can Editor Wan do? Xiao Zou has a strong background and is capable. He has published two popular books in a row. He deserves to be promoted and get a raise, and reach the peak of his life.
More importantly, Zou Weijun went to work at a literature and art publishing house and left "Hush, Little Secret" behind.
The leadership has not yet officially announced who will be responsible. Editor Wan thinks about his silent contribution to "Teenage Idol" and feels that he has a great chance of taking over the "Hush, Little Secret" series.
After hearing that the verdict had been issued, Editor Wan came up to Zou Weijun and flattered him:
"Congratulations! This is the day when the clouds have cleared and the sun has appeared. Justice has triumphed over evil, hehe!"
Editor Wan has a special ability. His words and actions are very greasy. Even if it is a good word, it sounds like it is covered with lard when it comes out of his mouth. Sometimes Zou Weijun can't figure out who is more like a villain between Editor Wan and Han Qin.
"Editor Wan has also contributed a lot, thank you."
Zou Weijun recalled the war of words and publicity caused by "Teenage Idol".
She did not agree with Editor Wan's way of doing things, but Editor Wan did help "Teen Idol". Zou Weijun was not the type of person who pretended to be ignorant, so she simply said it out loud before leaving.
There was no sarcasm in Zou Weijun's tone, and Lao Wan was flattered.
Did Xiao Zou praise him?
Editor Wan's pores opened up, like Zhu Bajie who had eaten ginseng fruit. He was so happy that he was crazy. "Xiao Zou, no, I have to call you Chief Editor Zou now. As long as Chief Editor Zou can see my efforts, then it's worth it!"
Zou Weijun took two steps back calmly.
Editor Wan is really someone who deserves praise. If he is praised, he will become even more of a jerk!
Thinking that they would no longer be in the same department, and Editor Wan would no longer be able to "promote" her project on her own initiative, Zou Weijun felt a little relieved. Thinking of the "Hush, Little Secret" series, Zou Weijun couldn't help but give a few more instructions:
"Editor Wan, you must continue to do a good job on the 'Hush, Little Secret' series. You may face criticism along the way, but time is the best test. I believe that with your ability and your full dedication, you will achieve even greater success than I did back then."
Zou Weijun complimented Editor Wan, who was so excited that his face flushed.
"Are you really going to make 'Hush, Little Secret' for me?"
Could it be that Zou Weijun was lying to him?
——No, Xiao Zou is not that kind of person!
Zou Weijun has not worked in the publishing editorial department for a long time, but his reputation for good character has been established. Even an editor as greasy as Wan is convinced that Zou Weijun would not lie.
So Editor Wan’s life was instantly complete.
That’s a nationally popular science book series, and he’s really responsible for it!
Zou Weijun made this decision after careful consideration. Although Editor Wan had some minor flaws, his professional ability was very strong. She could not let her personal likes and dislikes affect work arrangements. When the leader asked Zou Weijun for her opinion, she recommended Editor Wan.
After getting assurance from Zou Weijun, Editor Wan walked with a sense of elation, and returned the favor by showing off his achievements to Zou Weijun. He did not mention his own efforts, but only said that he respected Zou Weijun's privacy and had never leaked the personal information of "Fish Against the Current" to the outside world. He also praised Zou Weijun for raising her son. Both mother and son were high-profile in their work and low-key in their personal lives, and they were able to keep such great achievements to themselves.
The more Zou Weijun listened, the more puzzled he felt.
Editor Wan thinks Xie Qian is a "fish swimming upstream"?
If it were usual, Zou Weijun would have acquiesced to it, so that Editor Wan would not harass Wen Ying after knowing the truth. Now that the author's personal profile is to be published along with the verdict, Wen Ying doesn't care whether the vest is exposed or not, and there is no need to hide it anymore.
Zou Weijun interrupted Editor Wan: "You may have misunderstood. My son is not the author of 'Teenage Idol'. 'Fish Against the Current' is a female author. Of course, she is indeed a promising young writer. She is not some out-of-this-world talent. She won first prize in the New Concept Essay Competition!"
ah?
Isn’t the “fish swimming upstream” Xie Qian?
"Last time at the court gate—"
Editor Wan almost let the cat out of the bag, but quickly bit his tongue and changed the subject: "But the media all say that the author of 'Teen Idol' is a teenager."
Although he is not Zou Weijun’s son, Zou Weijun still protects the “fish swimming upstream” so well!
Zou Weijun obviously did not need to explain the inside story in detail to Editor Wan. Who exactly is the "fish going against the current"? With the needs of later publicity, Editor Wan will sooner or later meet Wen Ying in person.
Maybe Editor Wan had seen it a long time ago, but he just didn’t know that Wen Ying was the “fish swimming against the current”.
Judging people by their appearance is a common problem for most people, and Editor Wan is no exception.
Wen Ying is a rough diamond. Even if she was easily overlooked in the past, she will surely shine brightly in the future!
In response to Editor Wan's doubts, Zou Weijun just smiled. Her personal belongings were packed in a cardboard box. She picked up the box and left the publishing editorial department.
The clattering sound of high heels faded further and further away from Editor Wan. Thinking that he would no longer be working with Zou Weijun, Editor Wan should have felt relieved, as if the huge rock pressing down on his head had been removed. He was still the most powerful editor in the publishing department, but for some reason, Editor Wan felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
"Hey, Editor Zou, let me help you move your things!"
Editor Wan strode after him.
When today's "Chengdu Evening News" was delivered, Editor Wan finally believed that Zou Weijun was not lying.
The "fish swimming upstream" was not Xie Qian!
Editor Wan and Song Foxiang, two like-minded friends, gathered together. Editor Wan poked Song Foxiang's arm and said, "This Wen Ying is also a provincial key student. She even won first prize in the New Concept Writing Competition. She and Xiaochan were in the same class. Do you know her?"
Song Foxiang stared at the newspaper intently.
Of course he knows her!
At the New Concept Competition awards ceremony, he and Wen Ying's mother sat in the front and back rows.
At that time, he wanted to exchange experiences with Wen Ying's mother. What did Wen Ying's mother say... I remember now, she said it was "just writing it casually". There was no point in talking to each other, so Song Foxiang didn't want to bother with her anymore.
Is this just random writing?
Not only did he win the first prize of the New Concept Award, he also wrote a best-selling novel!
——Wait, I have become Wen Ying’s reader and have been cheering for Wen Ying and fighting for her for the past two months?
Song Foxiang was angry and didn't want to talk, like a big sad frog who had been fancied by mistake.
