"Sister Zou!"
The little salamander's eyes were red and tears were welling up in them, he was about to cry but didn't.
Zou Weijun smiled and asked her, "You're already an adult, you're not about to cry, are you? When you heard I was leaving, were you worried that you wouldn't be able to continue supporting Wen Ying like I did?"
Xiao Niu hurriedly defended himself, "Don't worry, Sister Zou, I will definitely not let Wen Ying suffer any loss. As for the projects you left behind, I will definitely take good care of them for you and ensure that they can continue!"
The little salamander has matured a lot, but it seems that nothing has changed. It is still the young editor who came to Chengdu with enthusiasm. Zou Weijun just used some provocation and the little salamander fell for it.
Wen Ying was originally filled with worry, but was amused by Xiao Niu's reaction. Following Zou Weijun's words, she sought support from Xiao Niu: "Auntie Zou is gone, so I can only rely on you!"
Little Salamander rubbed the corners of his eyes and forced back his tears. "Don't worry, I will definitely fight for the treatment you deserve."
Zou Weijun also wanted to laugh.
——Hey, although Wen Ying is younger than Xiao Niu, and Wen Ying is the author and Xiao Niu is the editor, if something really happens, it’s hard to say who will help whom!
Zou Weijun is about to resign. He is reluctant to leave the publishing career he loves, and he is also worried about the newcomer Xiao Niu whom he has brought up.
Without me pressing down on it, will the little salamander be bullied?
Rongcheng Publishing Group is a large company, and the larger the group, the more complex the relationships. Zou Weijun worried that Xiao Niu wouldn't be able to handle these relationships. Without Zou Weijun, Xiao Niu would have to rally all the forces he could, such as Song Foxiang and Editor Wan, two people who might seem greasy at ordinary times, but who might be more trustworthy than others in critical moments...
The little salamander was stunned.
After working together for such a long time, Xiao Niu still thought that Zou Weijun only knew how to do things directly and didn't care about the internal interpersonal relationships of the publishing group. It turns out that Zou Weijun knew everything, but he just didn't say it before!
"Having strong professional qualities is paramount; you'll never be short of food, no matter where you go. But how you conduct yourself beyond your professional qualities determines the quality of your meals. Little Salamander, you're still young, so don't set a ceiling for your career. If you enjoy publishing, then strive to excel in it. That's a valid idea. What I want to tell you is that we should keep learning throughout our lives. The development of an industry is closely tied to the context of the times. You should acquire new knowledge and strive not to be left behind by the times!"
Being an editor now does not mean you will be an editor for life.
There are many forms of loving the publishing industry. Zou Weijun hopes that Xiao Niu can have more room to display his talents. Zou Weijun personally has regrets about temporarily leaving the publishing industry, but she has transformed this regret into beautiful expectations and reflected them on Xiao Niu.
Wen Ying was very surprised by Zou Weijun's heartfelt words, not to mention how much Xiao Niu, the person involved, took them to heart.
“Do you think the publishing industry will be left behind by the times?”
Zou Weijun thought carefully for a moment before nodding cautiously. "I'm not sure. I just feel like times are changing so quickly. When we were young, reading was the first choice for many young people to acquire knowledge and pass the time. The power of words touched our hearts, and literature captivated us. Now look at young people today. Technology has advanced so much, and everyone has more options for spending their time. I know there are still many who enjoy reading, but some young people have also shifted their focus to movies and television, preferring to go to internet cafes and play games instead of reading... Wen Ying, you should have noticed from blogging on portal websites that writers can blog, celebrities can blog, and even ordinary people can. The threshold for creativity has been lowered. I think this is a good thing, but I'm also a little uneasy."
Wen Ying's mouth was slightly open, and because she was too surprised, she didn't close it for a long time.
Wen Ying certainly knew that print media would decline.
After the peak of the past two or three years, the domestic publishing industry will become increasingly difficult year by year. Textbooks and supplementary materials are certainly not a problem; with such a large student population, there's no shortage of market opportunities. Beyond this broad category, creating blockbuster literary titles is becoming increasingly difficult.
It’s not that there are no young people reading books anymore, it’s that those who read books have changed the way they read!
Wen Ying knew that this was not surprising at all, as she had experienced such changes in the times once before.
Some epochal changes are earth-shaking, while others are like boiling a frog in warm water.
By the time most people realize it, the change has actually been completed. Those with a keen sense of touch change tracks and seize new opportunities in the change, while those who are slow to react are trapped in the declining industry and unable to struggle.
But it’s really amazing that Zou Weijun can see the future direction of the publishing industry!
How did Zou Weijun figure that out?
Wen Ying opened her mouth to ask, but didn't know where to start.
Girls take after their fathers and boys take after their mothers. Xie Qian is so smart, how could Zou Weijun be stupid?
Being a full-time housewife for so many years has really restricted Zou Weijun's personal development.
Wen Ying was originally worried about the reason why Zou Weijun resigned in a hurry, but she suddenly became open-minded: Zou Weijun doesn't need her to worry about him. Zou Weijun has adapted to the rhythm of the workplace and escaped from depression. He should be someone that others should fear!
Wen Ying's worried words came to her lips and then changed the tone: "Aunt Zou, what are your new plans after leaving the publishing house?"
When asking this question, Wen Ying actually already had a guess, but she just wanted to confirm it with Zou Weijun.
Zou Weijun smiled gently, his eyes firm. "Of course I do. I plan to return to Beijing and work at Jinhu."
Return to Beijing!
Going to work in Kumho!
Okay, no need to ask anything, Wen Ying understands everything.
Zou Weijun, who was bullied to the point of depression, is finally getting back on his feet after two years of recuperation!
Wen Ying came to her senses belatedly.
