Chapter 80: Give Comrade Zhou Tang a Chance to Slap Him in the Face
"You dare to kick me?"
He Xu shrugged his shoulders: "Who saw it?"
Chen Tang grinned: "I didn't see it."
Suddenly a voice came from next door: "I didn't see it either."
Chen Tang looked back and saw the man wearing glasses and a shirt. He looked like an intellectual and was well-dressed.
She didn't care, and smiled at Li Kang condescendingly: "Deputy Director Li, why don't you listen to me when I'm talking to you nicely?
What's so great about a fertilizer factory? I didn't want to help you write it, but you forced me to do it. Now I'm paying for it. You can fall down even when you're standing still. It really scared me."
Fortunately, she brought He Xu out, otherwise she would not be able to deal with this weird director by herself.
"It was clearly him who kicked me, you, you just wait!"
Li Kang left a word and limped away.
He was so furious that he ran into the director of the Propaganda Department as soon as he returned to the factory.
Seeing his embarrassed look, the other party's eyes flickered slightly and grinned: "Hey, Deputy Director Li, didn't you go out to meet the author Zhou Tang? This matter was instructed by the factory director, you better not mess it up."
Li Kang straightened his clothes and snorted, "You already know that it was the factory director who gave it to me, why are you still asking?"
He walked directly into the factory director's office, and his face, which had been so arrogant just now, suddenly turned bitter: "Cousin, what are these things you gave me? Zhou Tang is so arrogant that she doesn't want to help write promotional materials for our factory. I have never read people's faces in my life, and today she has made me angry enough."
The director of the fertilizer factory glanced at him, ignored his crying, and lit a cigarette: "We gave her so much money, but she didn't want it? I wonder if you offended her with your words."
"How could I do that? Cousin, you know that although I am arrogant on weekdays, I am very good at reading people's faces. I have done everything you asked me to do. I have already given them a thousand yuan, but they just don't want to do it."
After Li Kang finished speaking, he glanced at him cautiously and said, "But I found someone who writes well and his price is not expensive. Take a look..."
"Since I have no fame, I might as well spend some money to buy off the newspapers." The director of the fertilizer factory said coldly, obviously disagreeing with his proposal.
Li Kang smiled and flattered: "It's not expensive anyway, what if it can be published in Guangming Daily?"
The director of the fertilizer factory was silent for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Did Zhou Tang say he would not help us, or would he not help all the factories write?"
Li Kang: "That means all the factories will not help. Although she is from the military region, the farms in the military region are still begging us for fertilizers. It is impossible for them to help other factories. If she dares to write that, I will make her pay!"
The director of the fertilizer factory nodded and waved him out.
Li Kang walked out with a smile on his face, and his waist, which had been bent just now, straightened instantly.
How could he not handle a small author?
On the other side, Chen Tang and the others left, sat down and continued to eat noodles, complaining quietly: "The noodles are clumping together, this Deputy Director Li, he pissed me off, I shouldn't have come earlier."
He Xu saw that she was so angry that she looked like a leisurely kitten that was suddenly poked by someone. She looked so fierce and aggressive that he couldn't help but touch her little face.
It feels really good.
Looks chubby and seems to have gained weight?
"That deputy director Li obviously wanted to get your article for free. He didn't even let us go to the factory. Maybe he wanted to plagiarize your article. The only thing I'm confused about is, how did this person find out that we are soldiers?"
He Xu was not wearing a military uniform today, and his posture was casual, so he didn't look like a soldier at all.
Deputy Director Li's chin almost dropped to the sky. How could such a stupid person investigate their background?
Or did he come here today on purpose to humiliate them?
Chen Tang's light brown eyes condensed. Shi Bing was invited by the Propaganda Department of the Fertilizer Factory to write a promotional article. Li Kang knew their identities. It was hard for her not to suspect that Shi Bing had seen the letter sent by the publishing house to the military region and colluded with Li Kang.
Although she didn't think Shi Bing had the chance to open her letters, but thinking about the articles she had recently published and the mailing address, it was not difficult to guess that she was "Zhou Tang".
She told He Xu her guess.
He Xu frowned. He reminded Captain Wu last time, but the other party agreed verbally, but was swayed by Shi Bing's pillow talk and became confused.
"Something happened at her home. Even if she told us our identities, it's unlikely that Deputy Director Li of the Fertilizer Factory would choose her to write the publicity article. I'll investigate it later."
Chen Tang gave him a cute and sweet smile and pushed the noodles in front of him: "You eat."
Turning around, she asked the waiter to bring her two buns.
He Xu: “…”
He sighed helplessly, he shouldn't have bought an extra bowl of noodles for himself just now.
But seeing her nibbling the bun in small bites, he seemed quite satisfied?
The two were eating when the man with glasses behind them walked up to them.
"Excuse me, are you the author of Zhou Tang?"
Chen Tang and He Xu looked at each other and nodded, "What's the matter?"
The man pushed his glasses and smiled politely: "Hello, Comrade Zhou Tang, my name is Liang Lu, and I am the director of the publicity department of a feed factory in Hai City. I have been writing to the newspaper before, hoping to contact you to help us write a publicity draft.
Although our factory is not as good as the fertilizer factory, it is one of the best aquatic product feed factories in Hai City. Both the quality and scale have been developed to the largest and best.
But if we want to expand further, we must first build a reputation. So after our factory director saw your articles in magazines and Guangming Daily, he kept asking me to contact you.
I overheard the conversation between you and Deputy Director Li Kang of the Fertilizer Factory, and I also know that Comrade Zhou Tang is unwilling to write publicity articles for the factory, but don't worry, we will definitely give you enough compensation to satisfy you, and we will definitely not take advantage of your article for free like the Fertilizer Factory did. "
Chen Tang and He Xu looked at each other.
She thought for a moment and was a little confused: "Why do you factories all ask me to help you write promotional materials?"
She knows herself. As for how talented she is, she may not be better than other authors.
There are many people who publish articles in Guangming Daily. Hai City is also a gathering place for talents, and she is not the only one who has published things in magazines and Guangming Daily.
Logically speaking, she shouldn't be getting so much attention, right?
Liang Lu asked in surprise: "Don't you know?"
"The article you published in Guangming Daily about common forms of trafficking and how to escape trafficking saved countless women and children. Many people dug out your magazine articles, "Mother's Marriage" and "The Rise of Small People," which contained many methods of making new foods and delicacies. In order to verify them, the prices of many foods have increased.
If you write a promotional article for us under the pen name Zhou Tang, it will definitely help spread our fame."
Chen Tang hadn't expected that his good writing would cause such a big commotion.
It was because there were no mobile phones in that era, otherwise who would have thought of using the author's pen name to promote the company's reputation.
"What did you say your factory is called?"
"It's called Haili Feed Factory."
Chen Tang's eyes widened slightly. Isn't this the Haili Company, one of the top ten feed companies in the country in his previous life?
Liang Lu continued, "The fertilizer factory has a side effect. Sales have remained the same year after year, and this year there has been a slight decline. We are different. Our company's profits have been rising. If Comrade Zhou Tang promotes it, it will surely be even better. Those people at the fertilizer factory will regret their outrageous remarks."
What can young people with a passionate heart not tolerate the most?
I can't stand being looked down upon by others.
Li Kang had such an arrogant look just now, the little girl must have been very angry.
He would seize the opportunity to give the girl a slap in the face, and the girl might be moved.
It’s not like Shen Tang couldn’t hear the meaning behind his words.
She was indeed disgusted by Shi Bing and the people from the fertilizer factory, and she would really like to slap them in the face if she had the chance.
But she didn't agree immediately and turned to look at He Xu.
The man saw what she was thinking and asked, "What about the reward?"
Liang Lu said: "If it is not selected, we are willing to give 300 yuan per article, as well as some bills. If it is selected, then we are willing to give 1,000 yuan per article, as well as several bills and other benefits."
This price is already very honest. Chen Tang wrote two novels and only earned two or three hundred yuan a month.
It is only because she became famous that people are willing to pay her a higher price.
There was no profit sharing these days, so no matter how much the goods sold, none of the money belonged to her. She only had a guaranteed price.
One thousand dollars is equivalent to one job.
It will take an average person at least several years to earn it back.
Chen Tang felt that he couldn't be a salted fish.
Only appropriate slapping in the face can make her appear ambitious.
She held out her hand and smiled sweetly: "Okay, I agree. When can we go to your factory to take a look?"
She had to write a promotional article for them, so it was impossible for her to just start writing without reading anything or understanding anything.
Liang Lu held her hand and smiled: "If you are free now, we can go now."
Chen Tang asked excitedly, "Is it far?"
"It's not far, we can get there in half an hour by bus."
The three of them went to the Haili factory. The company was very large. After Liang Lu knew that Chen Tang was pregnant, he got her a few more masks to wear.
There are not many production lines, and Liang Lu introduced to her the characteristics of various feeds and production precautions, as well as comparisons with other feed factories, worker supervision, etc.
Because there are not many machines, most production lines require manual inspection, so every Shen Tang is specifically responsible for understanding employee benefits.
After returning to the military area, she was too tired to move.
He Xu massaged her legs: "Do you feel uncomfortable in your stomach?"
Chen Tang moved his little arms: "Yes."
He Xu suddenly became nervous: "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
"He's hungry."
Shen Tang smiled shamelessly, causing the man to roll his eyes and snap his fingers on her forehead.
