——Why did Jiang Yucheng suddenly appear in front of Chu Li?
——Why do Chu Li and Jiang Yucheng have each other’s QQ numbers?
——Why is the author at the top of the pyramid so intimate with the editor of Yuanyue Publishing House's new magazine, calling him "little monkey" all the time?
…
Enter the editorial department of Moonlight magazine and get closer to science.
Let's rewind the time to half an hour ago.
…
Half an hour ago.
When Chu Li was busy arguing with Lao Miao about whether Ah Gui or Nian Nian was more popular and who should occupy more space in the front page plan - in a high-end residential building in the center of G City, the big shot who could really occupy an entire page with his big face just crawled out from the sofa where he had been suffering for a whole morning. He looked confused, like a bear that had just ended hibernation.
I didn't sleep very well this time.
Half asleep, the man rubbed his eyes, fumbled for the phone he had thrown on the table and took a look: there were no important calls he had missed, and he ignored all the messages urging him to submit manuscripts or requesting manuscripts. The rest were just some odds and ends...
After quickly dealing with these trivial matters one by one, the man sat on the sofa for a while, letting his brain wake up from its dormant state. At this time, the mobile phone in his hand stopped at a dialogue box page——
[The monkey's hired navy: Has the teacher gotten up yet? ]
[The navy hired by the monkey: The mission was completed successfully, thank you teacher! ]
[The navy hired by the monkey: Teacher, remember to take your medicine! ]
Zhuchuan: “…”
Why does this banana monkey talk so much nonsense?
Do you think work is not busy enough?
Zhuchuan did not reply.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the bowl of porridge neatly placed on the floor under the dining table. It was so clean that it seemed unnecessary to wash it. The thief who had taken the porridge from the table and ate it clean was now sleeping on another sofa with his back to the ground, with dried rice grains on his nose.
The cold medicine and water on the table were still there.
In my mind, I unconsciously flashed back to the image of a little girl in her oversized slippers walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot porridge. The sound of her footsteps seemed to still be in my ears. Then she walked into the kitchen again and got some water. Finally, she carefully took out the pills from the tin foil according to the dosage required by the instructions and placed them next to the cup of water...
Zhuchuan was silent.
Then he sighed as if resigned to his fate.
Open Q and find a guy named [Jiang Yucheng]——
[Zhuchuan: Hey, are you awake? ]
[Zhuchuan: Get up! The sun is shining on your butt! ]
【Jiang Yucheng: ……】
[Zhuochuan: You haven’t been very free recently? Do you have time to write something for Yuanyueshe? ]
【Jiang Yucheng: Seeing your profile picture light up means something bad has happened. Why the hell didn’t I have the heart to block you?! 】
【Jiang Yucheng: I am free, but I am happy with my free time. I don’t think “I will die if I don’t write”.】
【Jiang Yucheng: What do you write for Yuanyue Publishing House? Do you write for Yuanyue Publishing House or for your editor?】
【Zhuchuan: ...Why do you talk so much? 】
【Jiang Yucheng: Is this the attitude of asking for help?】
【Jiang Yucheng: What do you want to write? If it's not a big deal, I'll agree. It's rare for you, a gentle and gentle man like you, to speak up.】
【Zhuochuan: A preface plan, maybe a few hundred words.】
[Zhao Chuan: It seems that the editorial department asked these editors to find a few authors to write, and this useless girl only found one who wrote gay stories... Last night, she was mocked by another editor right under my nose, and she typed out more than 20 WeChat messages crazily. ]
[Jiang Yucheng:………………]
【Jiang Yucheng: Sure enough, then why don’t you write it for her yourself?】
[Zhu Chuan: I rejected her twice, why am I trying to get close to her now? 】
【Jiang Yucheng: Then what if I just go there eagerly? 】
[Zhaochuan: I'll give you a bridge to cooperate with Yuanyue Publishing House. Although this publishing house is a stingy person from head to toe...but don't you complain every day that you are going to be out of fashion? Yuanyue Publishing House is currently working on a popular literature project. You can see if you want to cooperate with them.]
【Zhu Chuan: Do you know why you are going to be out of fashion? 】
【Zhu Chuan: Because you don’t take the initiative to look for opportunities, you don’t want to be famous, and you don’t have a dream.】
【Jiang Yucheng: …………………………………You don’t have any dreams! 】
【Jiang Yucheng: Send her QQ to me, I will ask what's going on. 】
Seeing that Jiang Yucheng, the old fox, had given in, the man on the phone curled up the corners of his lips.
Take a screenshot of Chu Li’s Q and send it to Jiang Yucheng.
There was silence on the other side. Just when Zhaochuan thought he was going to talk about dreams with Chuli, he didn't expect Jiang Yucheng to suddenly say "Huh" -
【Jiang Yucheng: This girl is your junior moderator editor? Oh my gosh!】
【Zhuchuan:? 】
【Jiang Yucheng: Do you remember the ten-year-old fan I told you about who also went to work at Yuanyueshe? No, he’s alone, brother.】
【Jiang Yucheng: "Screenshot of chat history"】
Chat record screenshot content——
"The monkey's hired navy: sir, it's me, it's me!
I'm going to work at Yuanyue Press. I've finally realized my dream of so many years! Please wait for me. When I pass the probation period and become an excellent editor, I will definitely publish a superb best-selling book for you in the future (≧ω≦)
I like you the most! Kiss! "
Zhuchuan: “…”
Suddenly I thought of a long time ago.
Someone boasted to him with confidence: The author of the Little White Lotus in my heart is also a very good person, I have loved him for ten years!
Zhuchuan: “…………………………………………”
so.
Little White Lotus is Jiang Yucheng?
That banana man monkey has loved this salted fish for ten years and is still proudly showing off to me?
Jiang Yucheng???
Little White Lotus??????
………………………………Fuck, is this monkey blind? ! ! ! ! !
Donate a dime so you can go to the eye doctor! ! ! ! ! ! !
Also "Chimi"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Donate another dime and I'll go to the neurology department as well! ! ! !
Zhuo Chuan put down his phone, raised his head, opened his nostrils and took a deep breath... He calmed down and lowered his head while his mind was racing. He mustered up the courage to pick up the phone again. It was no surprise that Jiang Yucheng, the old bastard, did not miss the opportunity to ridicule him.
【Jiang Yucheng: Haha ...
【Tsukawa: …】
【Zhou Chuan: We broke up a long time ago. Online relationships don’t last more than twelve hours.】
【Jiang Yucheng: Hahahahaha it’s too late! After breaking up, you still come to me to help her?】
【Tsukawa: …】
【Jiang Yucheng: I just like the way you can’t explain yourself.】
【Zhuchuan: Don’t go. 】
【Zhuchuan: Just pretend I didn’t mention this. 】
【Zhu Chuan: I didn't look for you today, it was all your illusion, go away.】
【Jiang Yucheng: I have to go. My fans are in trouble. How can I, who has been her boss for ten years, not come to her rescue? It’s just a few hundred words, and my dad finished writing it in 20 minutes.】
[Zhuchuan: ...Why are you acting like a pervert? ]
【Jiang Yucheng: I learned it from you.】
…………anger.
Zhao Chuan directly slammed the phone on the coffee table, his handsome face twitching with anger, and there was silence for a moment. At this moment, the man deeply felt what it meant to find trouble for himself - it was like there was a huge rock on the side of the road, just sitting there and not bothering anyone, but Zhao Chuan was so mean that he wanted to lift it up and perform a rock-breaking performance with his chest!
...and he even smashed himself so hard that blood splattered three feet high!
This is the ugliest!!!
…
That’s all. End of memories.
Time goes back to this moment half an hour later. In the editorial department of Yuanyue Society's Moonlight magazine, no one knows what Chu Li experienced during the short lunch break.
[The navy hired by the monkey: Big brother, ahhh big brother, oh my god! ]
[The water army hired by the monkey: Teacher Jiang Yucheng T_T]
[The sailors hired by the monkey: Are you a firefighter who is stepping on a colorful cloud to save people from fire and water? I really do need your help. I hope you are not just being polite to me... Because I really have something to do. I am in the editorial department of Moonlight magazine. There is a frontispiece project with the theme of "childhood fun" in June. I need a paragraph of about 800 words...]
【Jiang Yucheng: Okay.】
【Jiang Yucheng: Give me twenty minutes.】
[The monkey's hired navy: I kowtow to you! Bang bang bang!]
So, when it was time to go to work in the afternoon, Lao Miao and Yu Yao, who had just returned from lunch, stepped into the office and saw Chu Li rushing in front of them like a gust of wind. Chu Li grabbed Lao Miao's hand and said, "Lao Miao! I found another author to do the frontispiece project!"
Lao Miao seemed surprised for a moment, but then he immediately regained his composure: "It's a bit late to make an appointment now. We will start typesetting this afternoon. I just sent the layout plan to Ah Xiang. Even if you come now..."
"He has already given me the manuscript." Chu Li said quickly, "It was Jiang Yucheng."
Lao Miao was stunned. Before he could say anything, Yu Yao spoke first: "Who?"
Chu Li nodded several times, unable to suppress the excitement on his face: "Jiang Yucheng! Editor-in-chief! It's that Jiang Yucheng! He suddenly found me and asked if I needed any help. I told him, and then he spent 20 minutes sending me a paragraph that was very similar to the prologue of "The Vanishing Zoo", but this time it was about an amusement park..."
Chu Li took a deep breath and said, "I have proofread the manuscript and sent it to Lao Miao's email."
Lao Miao: “…”
Lao Miao may not know Ah Gui, but he cannot not know Jiang Yucheng——
As the so-called "author at the top of the pyramid", Jiang Yucheng had already made his mark in the country ten years ago with his suspense and horror themes. After three years of training, he became the country's leading "horror master"; his representative works include "The Ghost Bride" and "The Vanishing Zoo"; at his peak, he created a first print run of 300,000, which was sold out on the day of release, and bookstores were deserted for books... Among the top writers mentioned above who received 15% royalties, Jiang Yucheng is one of them.
Although his popularity has been affected in recent years due to the overall decline in the market for suspense and horror themes, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an author on par with the rising trend of Hirokawa.
There is no difference between finding him and finding Zhuchuan.
Chu Li could feel that the eyes of the entire editorial department were once again on her, especially the green tea bird behind her who had her eyes wide open and was dumbfounded without disguising herself...
This kind of silence seems familiar.
This also happened when Lao Miao wanted to take advantage of the situation to kick her out during the trial period, but the next second he saw her take out the publishing contract signed by Zhu Chuan——
Chu Li took a deep breath, her eyes shining brightly as she looked at Yu Yao, who said with surprise, "You actually found Jiang Yucheng," and Lao Miao, who was staring at her silently...
Chu Li knows——
This time.
Once again, she made a great comeback!
