Finally, Chu Li could no longer bear it and stood up, walked out, and smiled awkwardly at those confused newcomers who seemed to doubt their lives: "Teacher Jin Hezai is a man, why is the teacher a woman? Our colleagues in the marketing department are playing a joke on you, hahaha."

Then he dragged Liang Chonglang into the conference room and slammed the door shut: "Old Liang, are you kidding me? During the interview, you emphasized that the recruits must have knowledge of the author community, and you turned around and ruined my plan - you got Jin Hezai and Yuan Hewei wrong! A three-year-old child knows what Jin Hezai looks like. He has done so many book signings, does he look a bit like a woman?!"

"Blah, blah, blah, blah," Liang Chonglang pulled his clothes back from Chu Li's hands, "She said her name was Jin Hezai."

"They said their name is 'Yuan He Gu'!" Chu Li rolled his eyes fiercely, "Forget it, forget it, you can take them out for a walk and brag about the great achievements of the marketing department... Don't even mention the author resources. Yuan Yue Society has a great reputation, and everyone knows that the author resources are good, otherwise how could these people be deceived, you don't need to brag about it."

"'Lie.'"

"It's a lie," Chu Li said expressionlessly, "At least that's why I'm standing here. Although someone told me to run away the day after the interview, unfortunately I didn't listen to him, and now I'm working like a slave for him to atone for my sins."

Chu Li finished giving a bunch of instructions, kicked Liang Chonglang out again, and returned to his desk to organize the interview with his cousin with other colleagues. The deputy editor-in-chief of "Xinggui" smiled and said, "Chu Li, your mention of this reminds me that it was me who interviewed you when you joined Yuanyue Publishing House two years ago. At that time, I actually wanted you to join "Xinggui" to stimulate the vitality of the elderly editorial department. Who knew that Yu Yao wanted you to go."

"She took me away and left on her own."

"She probably wanted to leave a long time ago, and now she has finally found a successor." The man was still smiling, "Yu Yao used to be like you, she couldn't tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. She only kept silent after the incident with Suo Heng... But she was also the backbone of the editorial team in the fight against the marketing department."

And now, Dao Chuli has taken over the banner.

He still remembered the time when she interviewed Chu Li. Her eyes were shining, full of expectation and fear. When she looked at each interviewer, her eyes were full of admiration.

Like many interviewees today...

And how many of those recruited today will be able to become big men like Chu Li who can stand on his own, command a region, and give orders to Liang Chonglang in just one and a half years?

While he was thinking, Chu Li had already neatly selected four resumes: "These are the ones."

Everyone looked closely and found that Chu Li had selected two men and two women among dozens of interviewees. Two of them were fresh college students who had just graduated this year; the other two had relevant editing experience and had worked in newspapers and other magazines before.

There is a reason why Chu Li chose these four people -

For the sake of efficiency, she could only accept two types of newcomers. The first type was those who could be independent and did not need much guidance from me. This was why she hired those two experienced people.

The second type is someone she needs to be completely obedient, who can assist her in completing everything and minimize the time and energy caused by internal friction among personnel. This type of person is not easy to find, but recent college graduates with a relatively dull personality are definitely the right choice.

Among the four people selected, Chu Li was most optimistic about the boy who used to work at Longyin Publishing House. He had two years of experience in the industry and had previously written several youth romance novels. Among so many interviewees, he was the only one who could clearly distinguish between the currently popular and the outdated authors and could talk about them like the back of his hand.

Chu Li sat in the conference room with four resumes, waiting for people to come and have Lao Miao take them for a walk and announce the interview results in person.

Ten minutes later.

Chu Li stretched his neck and waited, and finally the group of people came back. After the interview results were announced, Chu Li found that there were only three people who stood up and showed the joy of a winner.

……………………Her best-looking boy is missing.

"Where are the people?" Chu Li raised his eyebrows and asked, "One is missing?"

Liang Chonglang had an expression that said, "If you ask me, who should I ask?"

At this time, among the three selected by the first ceremony, the girl named Xu Tuanyuan, who was graduating this year, raised her hand and said, "That man is my cousin."

Chu Li: "Is there such a thing?"

Xu Tuanyuan: "Yes, he just finished the interview... He left before the interview results were announced."

Chu Li: "...Why? Then what is he doing here?"

"He really came for the interview at first, but then he left," Xu Tuanyuan cautiously glanced at Liang Chonglang who was sending away other unsuccessful interviewees not far away, bit his lower lip, approached Chu Li, and whispered, "But then, he left after saying, 'Where is Jiangnan now, QQ360 - even a three-year-old knows that Jin Hezai is a boy, is this Yuanyue Society mistaken?'"

First Li: “……………………”

The urge to drag Liang Chonglang to land reclamation appeared again.

Can this person just once--

Don't be a stumbling block to her, even just once.

If she didn't know that he was really stupid and ignorant, Chu Li would almost suspect that he was playing a trick on her.

Chu Li: "Lao Liang."

Liang Chonglang turned around in the crowd: "?"

Chu Li sighed: "...Nothing."

noon.

Chu Li took teachers Suo Heng, Yuan He Gu and three newcomers out for a meal. Together with Ah Xiang and Lao Li, it was a dinner for all the editorial staff of Moonlight magazine - not to mention Chu Li's dark face caused by Liang Chonglang, the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

In the afternoon, Chu Li brought the three newlyweds back to the office, and the new girl was assigned to face the readers' mailbox;

The new boy was assigned to proofread several short stories that he had not yet had time to process;

Chu Li, the girl who worked in the newspaper, directly gave her the work Q that Xiao Niao used before, and asked her to take over the cosplayer column of this issue...

Chu Li took the two authors to the Yuanyue Society's work library to "treasure hunt". Suo Heng looked at the works on the display shelf carefully: "Lao Miao never let me choose the cover myself before."

"Gays are always confident in their own aesthetics," Chu Li nodded, "but Lao Miao is a gay man with masculinity."

While Suo Heng picked up a few martial arts books to read, Chu Li came behind and made an appointment with Yuan He to write a manuscript - she had brought the person to her and had eaten with him, so she would not let her leave quietly.

During the conversation, they mentioned Ah Gui's hope for next year, "readers will crowd the alleys and back alleys for a spontaneous book signing." Chu Li paused for a moment as he looked down at Suo Heng, who was selecting a book cover. He immediately understood what he meant and said with a smile, "Teacher Suo Heng, do you want to join us? If you two start serializing at the same time, you will definitely finish at about the same time..."

"Me?" Suo Heng narrowed his eyes slightly. "Me, autograph session? No one will come."

This is what is called "once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of the rope for ten years."

Authors like Jiang Yucheng, who have been popular since their debut, will probably never understand what it feels like—

Some authors are like this. They have ups and downs in the first few years after their debut. After four or five years, no matter how popular they are, they will always position themselves as unknown.

"Someone will come," Chu Li said with a smile, "Let's write well and make the book well - if you don't see how lively the book signing event is, you don't know how popular you are now... My dad's colleagues all have readers of yours, and my dad is a people's teacher."

Suo Heng raised his hand and pushed the hair behind his ear. After thinking for a long time, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try it."

…

Go home at night.

She brought up the "Why" and "Where are you now" jokes with Zhuchuan in a complaining tone, and Zhuchuan laughed like thunder, which made Chu Li once again recall her hatred for Liang Chonglang.

In order to make Zhuchuan shut up, Chuli kicked him and told him about Jiang Yucheng. What caught Zhuchuan off guard was that he had been ready to watch Chuli's rage against Jiang Yucheng for signing "The Lost Emperor Girl" to Gu Baizhi. However, Chuli only complained a little about Jiang Yucheng not considering giving her the book...

Next, when he mentioned Jiang Yucheng, his tone was full of sincere gratitude.

It basically means "Such a commercialized author stood up when I needed him most and daydreamed with me."

Zhuochuan, who was sitting nearby, felt something was not right the more he listened. When Chuli said, "So now when I think of what Teacher Jiang Yucheng said that day in the cinema"... before she could finish her words, her chin was grabbed by a big hand and her head was forcibly turned away.

First Li: “?”

Zhuo Chuan: "Let me see the chat record between you and Jiang Yucheng this afternoon."

"We didn't say anything, but we declared war on each other. You and me, Jiang Yucheng and Gu Baizhi - the world war of the publishing industry is about to begin," Chu Li raised his hand to cover his pocket, with a vigilant look on his face, "Why should I show you the chat records?"

Zhuo Chuan: "Because when you mentioned Jiang Yucheng, the air was filled with a moist breath... When you told him these things, did you cry again?"

Chu Li: "...Why is there such a damp smell in the air? Are you sick? I am not."

Zhuo Chuan: "You actually cried for that scumbag."

Chu Li: "…………I, I'm not crying! Stop accusing me!"

Zhuchuan let her go with an expressionless face.

Stared at her face for three seconds.

Then he turned around and looked for his phone: "I asked Ah Xiang, she didn't dare to lie to me."

"You, you, let Axiang go, she's just a cute art editor!" Chu Li stood up and tried to grab the phone from the man.

Zhuo Chuan had already stood up. He held Chu Li's hands, which were waving behind him. He put the phone between his shoulder and ear and walked quickly to the window. "Hello? Ah Xiang?"

Chu Li: "Zhu Chuan!"

Zhuo Chuan put his hand over her mouth and said, "Don't scream."

Chu Li: "..."

That night, when the two members of the Red Team of the "War of the Century" were arguing over trivial matters, the Blue Team quietly launched the first wave of attacks!

Around nine o'clock in the evening, Xindun Press, where Gu Baizhi worked, issued a press release:

[Warm congratulations to Mr. Jiang Yucheng for his new oriental fantasy suspense work "The Vanishing Emperor Girl" which has been serialized for one month, with cumulative Weibo forwarding exceeding one million and cumulative Weibo reading exceeding 100 million!

Congratulations to Mr. Jiang Yucheng for winning the title of the most popular Weibo serial writer of the year! 】

………………Just one kick.

………………ruthlessly stepped on the faces of all the authors who also serialized new articles on Weibo, including Mr. Zhuchuan.
