As soon as everyone saw Zhuang Yuan, they no longer ignored him as before, but came forward to greet him enthusiastically.
"Brother Yuan, that's awesome! I heard the company's CPU was nearly destroyed yesterday because the fans of 'Ghost Lights' went crazy."
"This is unprecedented, Brother Yuan! It's a sure thing, absolutely a sure thing! With such an amazing novel in hand, how can this year's bonus be less?"
"Why don't I have such good luck? When will I meet such an awesome author?"
"Is this author, Yuan Ge, really a newcomer? He's not a pseudonym for an old author, is he?"
Even now, some people still suspect that this is a pseudonym of some old author.
"I can testify that she's definitely a newbie. I've read her contract. She's a very pretty girl."
"Envy, jealousy, someone said before that 'Ghost Lights' was a piggybacking."
Speaking of this joke, everyone present felt a little embarrassed and turned to look at Zhou Jiaming not far away.
Zhuang Yuan pretended not to notice the guilt in everyone's eyes.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, a colleague beside him said, "Who told you to come to work late every day? You guys are not destined to get rich."
Zhou Jiaming, the editor of the author Zhao Bao, looked at the highly sought-after Zhuang Yuan with disdain, and his tone was unconsciously a little sour when he spoke.
Moreover, he is determined to get the position of deputy editor-in-chief. It is a nice idea to think that you can snatch it from him with just one book.
"Who says it's not? It's only 50,000 words and it's already on the shelves. Who among us can compare to this kind of luck?"
"One book from someone else could surpass all our years of hard work."
The sour taste in these words was about to turn into reality, and the words were implying that Zhuang Yuan was lucky.
Everyone present here is a smart person, so no one can fail to hear it.
"Forget about the position of deputy editor-in-chief."
After hearing this, the smiles of those who were thinking about this at the moment faded a little.
After all, the position of deputy editor-in-chief has been vacant for some time.
Zhou Jiaming's words were meant to create hatred for Zhuang Yuan. After all, who among those present didn't have some idea about the position of deputy editor-in-chief?
At this moment, Shi Yu, an editor who was close to Zhuang Yuan, quickly stepped forward to help. "From now on, we'll rely on Brother Yuan to take care of us."
"With an author like this, it's going to take off immediately."
Seeing his friends coming out to rescue him, Zhuang Yuan looked at everyone with a smile. Good luck is also a part of strength, isn't it? It's just flattery in the workplace. Zhuang Yuan is not ignorant of the ways of the world.
"This person in our family is such a hands-off boss. I have to do all the updates today. I'm afraid she'll break down while writing."
"If it starts high and ends low, I won't even have a place to cry. Please don't flatter me."
When Zhou Jiaming heard this, he thought to himself, "She's a bit self-aware. A girl writing a male-oriented novel doesn't look very reliable.
Especially since I'm a high school student, it would be fun if I accidentally broke down while writing and couldn't make it back. "
Shi Yu, worthy of being Zhuang Yuan's good brother, quickly responded, "Brother Yuan, you are being modest. Being young is not a disadvantage but an advantage. It proves that this person has a promising future."
Although Zhuang Yuan agreed in his heart, he couldn't help but be modest. After all, he had been in the spotlight recently, so a little modesty was fine. He looked at everyone and said, "Newcomers are just not good enough. They're not like you veteran authors who are worry-free and have so many loyal fans supporting them."
"I don't really have high expectations for the results, as long as they're passable."
It didn't matter what he was thinking. Looking at everyone's bright smiles, Zhuang Yuan knew that everyone was very happy with this wave of mutual praise.
Ningxia had been worried about her love life for a whole day, and she just entered school after lunch.
I saw Xiaowei, who lived not far from my home, and a boy in the woods not far from the playground.
Ningxia squinted her eyes for a long time before she could see clearly that the two were kissing secretly.
Ningxia even thought that her eyesight was too good, as she could tell who it was.
Ningxia thought about whether to pretend not to see it and walk away, or to remind him.
Man, this is too blatant. Aren't you afraid of getting caught?
But before she could even utter a word, she heard a lion's roar: "What are you doing... Stop right there."
Well, after hearing that, it would be strange if those two didn’t run away.
Ningxia saw the two men, one going south and one going north, and they disappeared in a flash.
The dean of studies was probably a little dumbfounded, standing there looking at the boy on the left, then at the girl on the right.
Whoosh...went straight towards the boy.
Judging from his agile posture, it's obvious that he has done this many times.
After Xiaowei came back from the office, she lay on the table and cried.
Li Xin whispered in Ningxia's ear, "Have you heard? Xiaowei and that Lu Hui from Class 1 are dating. If the teacher hadn't caught us, we wouldn't have known about it. They've done a great job keeping it a secret."
"I heard they were dating in their second year of high school. How could they be so careless? They were almost graduating and still got caught by the dean."
"At the very least, you'll get punished. If it's serious, you could even be fired."
Shake your head,
Ningxia sighed, "A teenage girl."
I wonder if this girl will regret sacrificing her future for a little boy when she looks back many years later.
Ningxia remembers that this girl named Xiaowei used to be ranked around the top ten in her grade, but now, being ranked 100th is considered an extraordinary performance.
Ningxia was watching the fun at this time, but she didn't know that the websites were almost paralyzed because of the release of "Ghost Lights Up the Lamp".
Zhuang Yuan was in the editorial department watching the rapidly rising number of subscriptions.
5000, 8000,
In just 10 to 20 minutes, the number of subscriptions exceeded 10,000.
