Chapter 600 Incomprehensible
Everyone in the meeting room of Fengyang Publishing House was caught off guard.
In fact, at the beginning, everyone thought that it was very likely that Liu Bo fired Zhao Xiangbei. After all, no matter from which aspect, Zhao Xiangbei was of no use.
However, Zhao Xiangbei's position was as stable as a rock, and there was no sign of him being fired.
Everyone went from not understanding and being pessimistic at the beginning to giving up completely in the end.
That's it.
Zhao Xiangbei's position is too stable, there is no way he can be fired.
That's exactly why many people think that it is impossible for Zhao Xiangbei to be fired for a long time in the future.
They are all employees.
If Fengyang Publishing House really goes bankrupt, then for the employees it would just be a matter of changing companies.
But what's going on today? ?
What’s more important is that the situation is clearly stable and improving.
They were actually going to fire Zhao Xiangbei when the situation was stable and improving? ?
Zhao Xiangbei's expression had become quite ugly at this time. He said to Liu Bo: "Boss Liu, this..."
"Editor-in-Chief Zhao, we will discuss this matter privately later. I just think that our publishing house needs some changes. Don't worry, I still trust you."
Liu Bo interrupted Zhao Xiangbei and said with a smile.
In the past, Liu Bo could allow Zhao Xiangbei to fool him, but when he jumped out, he would not care about Zhao Xiangbei at all.
It's like falling in love. When you like someone, you will choose to believe them even if they are telling lies. But when you no longer like them, you won't even bother to be perfunctory.
This is the situation today.
At this time, Zhao Xiangbei knew that he could no longer speak, and he could only look at Li Shang.
No matter what, Li Shang was promoted by himself.
At this time, he naturally had to speak for Zhao Xiangbei, so he coughed lightly and said, "Boss Liu, Su Qing's ability is indeed good, but I think we should train him a little more. After all, I think the editor-in-chief..."
"I told you that our publishing house needs to change. Besides, none of you think highly of this Journey to the West. Only Su Qing thinks highly of it. Now, the sales and influence of this novel also prove that Journey to the West is a good novel. But why can't other people see it?"
Liu Bo interrupted Li Shang and said, "Our Fengyang Publishing House has been silent for 8 years. After 8 years, I think some changes are needed. In this case, let Su Qing be the editor-in-chief. OK, let's adjourn the meeting. Su Qing and I will talk in detail later."
After saying that, Liu Bo turned to Zhao Xiangbei, who was already somewhat petrified, and said, "Brother Bei, let's go to my office and talk."
When Zhao Xiangbei heard what Liu Bo said, hope rose again instantly. He felt that he still had a chance.
But after arriving at Liu Bo's office, he gave up completely.
Because Liu Bo only said one sentence: "Brother Bei, I'm saving your face. Let's part ways in peace. What do you think???"
Zhao Xiangbei opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.
He still understands Liu Bo.
If people like Liu Bo are truly of one mind, then no matter how much you say, it will be useless.
Just like that, Zhao Xiangbei resigned happily.
There's no use making a fuss.
He has seen another side of Liu Bo.
All you can do at this time is to leave quickly.
But Zhao Xiangbei couldn't figure it out, why did it become like this? ?
After all, he really has the advantage this time? ?
Of course, there is no point in saying this now.
"Finally left."
Liu Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
After 8 years, he finally made a decision. He doesn't have to listen to this guy's nonsense anymore.
In fact, Liu Bo did not understand the operation of a publishing house or any other aspects of its work, but he knew very well that all he needed to do was find someone who understood to manage it.
He originally thought that Zhao Xiangbei was okay.
But now it seems that Zhao Xiangbei is not good enough.
Not only did it fail, but it also messed up Fengyang Publishing House, and its performance continued to decline. However, Liu Bo couldn't understand why he was fooled by Zhao Xiangbei like a fool.
Look.
After Liu Bo drove Zhao Xiangbei away, his IQ instantly returned. He even felt quite ashamed when he recalled the time when he was fooled.
That's right.
It's a shame.
Liu Bo wondered how he could be so stupid to be fooled by Zhao Xiangbei, and he was fooled for eight years.
Fortunately.
This guy can finally get out of here.
From now on, I won't have to look at this guy's face anymore.
The rest is easy.
Everything is left to Su Qing.
I have to say that Liu Bo is indeed a weirdo.
His ideas are also very simple.
Of course I hire people to help me with work.
Therefore, Liu Bo was ready to leave everything that happened next to Su Qing.
Leave professional matters to professionals.
He believes that his thinking is correct.
It wasn’t that my previous thinking was wrong, it was simply because Zhao Xiangbei was not good enough.
So, at the moment, it seems that Su Qing should be able to do it.
Regardless of whether it works or not, Liu Bo is ready to hand over everything to Su Qing in the next two years.
Ten minutes later, Su Qing came to the office.
"Editor-in-Chief Su, please sit down."
Liu Bo said with a smile: "You may not know me very well, so I need to say it again, basically..."
Okay.
Su Qing really didn't expect this.
What Liu Bo said was really straightforward.
"I'll leave the company's affairs to you. In the coming period, you can do whatever you want. I will fully support you. At the same time, if you need any help from me, please feel free to ask. I will also fully support you."
Liu Bo said to Su Qing, "Just think about it. Basically, I can trust someone like Zhao Xiangbei for so long, so you don't have to worry about anything. Just be assured and do it boldly."
After saying that, Liu Bo glanced at the time and said, "Okay, the company is now handed over to you. Work as quickly as possible, and this office is also yours."
Just like that, Liu Bo didn't even give Su Qing a chance to speak, and then Liu Bo left.
Only Su Qing was left with a confused look on his face.
Do you want to play it so lightly?
For Su Qing, this was indeed a bit of a joke.
But Liu Bo did just that.
It seems that Liu Bo will not be able to come to the company again.
Everything just happened so smoothly.
Su Qing was not a person who liked to hesitate. She even thought that she was going to leave the publishing house. After all, for Su Qing, this publishing house was full of stupid people. What was the point of her staying here? ?
But I never expected that there would be such a sudden turn of events.
Then, do your best.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and it turned out that Li Shang came in.
What happened today also had a significant impact on Li Shang.
He really wanted to chat with Su Qing.
After all, he was originally your subordinate, but suddenly he became your superior.
you say.
How embarrassing.
"Xiao Su, no, it should be Editor-in-Chief Su now..."
Li Shang said to Su Qing somewhat awkwardly: "I'm still a little uncomfortable at the moment."
"Brother Li, we will continue as usual. You don't have to be so deliberate. Just like Mr. Liu said, everything is for the publishing house."
Su Qing shook his head slightly and said, "Just do what you normally do, but you can add more copies of Journey to the West."
“This has already been added, do you want to add more?”
Li Shang said with some concern: "The reputation of Journey to the West is not very good right now."
Su Qing laughed. "Brother Li, I've said before that you don't really need to read those discussions and word-of-mouth on the Internet, because the first print run of 100,000 copies of Journey to the West was before Yu Xiaoshu posted the dynamic. In other words, it wasn't Yu Xiaoshu's dynamic that drove the sales. On the contrary, before that, Journey to the West had already sold out thanks to passers-by. I went to the bookstore, and it can be said that most of these people passed by the bookstore, discovered the book, and became obsessed after reading two chapters..."
Every publishing house will have an investigation, but other publishing houses’ investigations will either involve people distributing flyers or sending people to monitor several bookstores.
But what about Fengyang Publishing House???
Zhao Xiangbei didn't care about this at all. As for Li Shang, he basically followed Zhao Xiangbei's wishes. It could be said that Li Shang was a good man, a good old man. He was nice to the editors under him and never lost his temper. He was even more loyal to Zhao Xiangbei. If he was asked to go south, he would never go north.
Just like that, who could have thought of it? ?
Fengyang Publishing House is like this, they didn't even conduct any survey or feedback.
Previously, surveys and feedback were basically conducted online.
This is also the reason why Su Qing said no.
Just think about it yourself.
How credible is this survey done on the Internet?
So almost as soon as "Journey to the West" came out, Su Qing went directly to the bookstore. She saw with her own eyes some passers-by flipping through "Journey to the West", and basically 8 out of ten of these passers-by bought it.
Think about it.
How many copies of Journey to the West are there in a bookstore?
Basically, Su Qing went to three bookstores in two hours.
And then.
No need to transfer.
Because they are basically out of stock.
This is the horror of "Journey to the West".
As for the situations mentioned on the Internet, Su Qing found them even more hilarious.
She felt that she still had to do something.
So, she first asked Li Shang to print more copies of Journey to the West, and then she wrote directly on Douhu:
"I recommend Journey to the West. I have a feeling that this Journey to the West may become the biggest adapted novel in China."
This is Su Qing's title.
What about the article?
What Su Qing said was quite objective.
She first told some people who were criticizing Yu Xiaoshu, "Can you please not rush to judge? If you can't buy Journey to the West now, you can wait a few days. When Journey to the West is available, you can go and watch it. Then you can watch it again to see if it is really as hyped as it is?"
Secondly, Su Qing feels that current novels, TV series, and movies are basically too bad. Except for those directed by Yu Xiaoshu, those directed by others are indeed getting worse and worse.
In such a situation, I think what is needed more is some good ones.
The good here refers to classic.
To be honest, Su Qingxian said that he didn't like this novel about gods and demons at first.
Because she thinks that on the one hand, there is really nothing to read in some novels about gods and demons, and on the other hand, many of these novels are poorly written.
Su Qing really has high requirements for writing style.
The sentences in some fantasy novels are not smooth.
What's there to see?
Of course, if the writing is not good, then you can use the plot to attract people.
But the plots of many novels about gods and demons are not good either.
There are actually many reasons why the mythological novels have not been able to develop in recent years.
However, Su Qing said that she didn't know much about fantasy novels, and she didn't understand them, but what she knew was that this time "Journey to the West" was really great.
…
Su Qing did not say this as the contracted editor of Journey to the West; she said this as Ji Da.
At the same time, this article made many fans happy.
"Okay, I told you that Ji Da and Yu Xiaoshu are related. Look, this has happened so many times."
"Yes, I think so too. I can't even remember how many times it has happened. Basically, as long as Yu Xiaoshu has something going on, Ji Da will definitely show up."
"Yeah, this time again, as a drama critic, how could I possibly pay attention to a fantasy novel? But I ended up paying attention to it just because of Yu Xiaoshu."
"It's really interesting. Anyway, let's not talk about anything else. I believe in Ji Da."
"Haha, I think Ji Da is having an affair with Yu Xiaoshu?"
"What's the matter? Do you mean Ji Da likes men? Or does Yu Xiaoshu like men?"
"That's true. Think about it, has Yu Xiaoshu ever been in a relationship in the past few years?"
"Oh my god, it really is."
…
What a good guy.
No one expected that everyone would go astray.
But there is nothing we can do about it, who could have thought of this???
Ji Da is Su Qing, a woman.
Su Qing's defense of Yu Xiaoshu is actually not very meaningful.
If the truth can really be explained clearly.
Then this society would not be like this.
The reason is simple.
Everyone only trusts their own judgment.
Whether you are Yu Xiaoshu or Ji Da, I don’t believe anything you say.
Yu Xiaoshu was quite smart and knew this.
For this reason, he didn't care about the online discussions at all.
On the contrary, he was quite happy.
This kind of discussion is interesting.
Next is the celebration party for "The Beginning".
