Guangdong, headquarters of "United Life Weekly".

At 8:30 in the morning, it's time to go to work, and the men and women begin a busy day of work.

But the way of working here is relatively free, just like the atmosphere here, free and individual, full of vitality. A lot of bright colors are used. From the moment you walk into the company, what you see is the eye-catching burgundy and

Lake green soft cloth seats serve as the waiting area. On the simple and bright golden bookshelf next to it, books, newspapers and magazines for visitors to browse are carefully displayed...

"Did you go to the Mid-Autumn Festival Party yesterday? Let me tell you, Tang Zhen is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the one on TV. When she sang, I was always worried whether a gust of sea breeze would come and blow her away.

The Moon Palace has gone up." A beautiful woman wearing big round earrings said.

I am truly worthy of being a writer, and I praise you for being different from others.

"Ah, did you go to see it? I didn't buy a ticket! I heard that Tang Zhen and Luo Yuqing are both here. Which one of them is more beautiful?" said another beauty with a little baby fat.

"I like Luo Yuqing better. She is really beautiful and feminine." A girl with a ponytail next to her raised her head from the computer and answered.

"Don't you think Tang Zhen has more temperament? Although she is cold, men should like her more, right? Xiao Li." The beauty wearing big round earrings said, asking the young man named Xiao Li.

"Can you be my girlfriend? I like both of them, and I'm not big-hearted. Please ask God to give me one." Xiao Li raised his head and prayed.

The girl with a little baby fat glared at him and said: "You can dream!"

The beauty wearing big round earrings smiled and said: "It's not enough for you to have Jiajia. You really have to look forward to Shu. All men are like this!"

Jiajia is a girl with a bit of baby fat. She and Xiao Li have always been interesting. They are still in the ambiguous stage. At this moment, Jiajia is very embarrassed, but Xiao Li is very generous and keeps looking at the girl with a smile.

The girl with the ponytail suddenly said: "Do you think we can invite Tang Zhen to do an exclusive interview?"

Everyone was stunned, and the more they thought about it, the more they thought it was possible. "United Life Weekly" was famous enough, and Tang Zhen was becoming more and more popular, which was beneficial to both parties, so the next few people started chatting on this topic.

When Wei Tingting rushed to the company, half an hour had passed. She looked around a little guiltily, worried about being caught. No matter how free the company atmosphere was, she couldn't be late.

The girl wearing big round earrings smiled and said: "Hey! I caught a late baby! Tell me, what did you do last night? Can't you get up in the morning?"

The ponytail girl also smiled and said: "Tingting's boyfriend must have come to Guangdong, haha~"

...Well, they were right. Wei Tingting's boyfriend came to Guangdong yesterday. The two of them went to see the Guangdong Mid-Autumn Festival Gala and played until very late.

Wei Tingting's face secretly turned red when she was told about the central issue, but she knew the temperament of these little hooves. If she showed a little timidity, she would be held accountable immediately, and it would be even harder to escape then, so she pretended to be frank and frank.

, cleverly branching out from the topic.

"I watched the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala last night. Luo Yuqing and Tang Zhen were so beautiful..."

Luo Yuqing liked the girl with the ponytail, and Tang Zhen liked the girl with the big round earrings. They were taken away with just one sentence.

Seeing that the two people's attention was drawn away, Wei Tingting felt relieved. At this time, the editor-in-chief called and asked her to go to the office.

The editor-in-chief's office was very spacious. There were five people sitting on a set of sofas in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. Wei Tingting took a closer look and saw that they were all colleagues. Several of them were talking about something, but only one of them was talking.

"Wu Qing has agreed to open a column in our weekly. This opportunity is very rare. His book "Youth" is currently selling very well, and it has entered the top ten of Huaxia Bookstore's monthly sales rankings. It has risen very quickly. We

We must seize this opportunity firmly..."

The editor-in-chief waved silently and asked Wei Tingting to come over and sit down. He didn't say until the other party finished speaking: "Thank you for your hard work. Wu Qing can write a column. I agree. Let him be included next week. For the article, A Jiang, you must

Keep it closed."

A Jiang said: "Chief Editor, please rest assured. Wu Qing's article has been written and is in my hands. I have read it and it is very good. Chief Editor, you will have the final say."

With that said, Ajiang gave the editor-in-chief a copy of the manuscript printed on A4 paper. The editor-in-chief quickly read it and said it was indeed very good.

Ajiang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said that since Wu Qing's article had been brought, could he put it in this issue of the magazine to show that he valued him?

Wei Tingting had been watching, and then her heartstrings moved inexplicably, as if someone had sneaked into the house and plucked the red string that tied the bell.

The editor-in-chief thought for a while and said that the slots for this issue of the magazine were already full and he would have to wait until next time.

Wei Tingting looked at Ajiang and thought that he was starting to get serious.

Sure enough, Ajiang did not tell the editor-in-chief, but asked Wei Tingting. The column she was responsible for was still empty, and there were no articles at this time. Could she please give it to Wu Qing's article?

Each issue of "United Life Weekly" has 200 pages and a total of 400 pages, which is very thick among all magazines, which indirectly illustrates its popularity.

Although it is rich in content, due to its great reputation, the circulation is the highest among China Weekly. It receives a large number of submissions every day, including many famous writers. Who is promoted and who is dismissed will test the skills of the editors.

Although the weekly magazine strives to be fair and impartial, as long as you are a human being, there will always be some personal feelings in it. When the level is similar, you will give priority to the author who is more familiar with you. This is unavoidable, and it cannot be said to be selfish.

.

Ajiang just said that Wu Qing will open a column in "United Life Weekly", that is, for a long time. Wei Tingting is not stupid. She really believes what Ajiang said to give him one issue. I am afraid that after giving up one issue, she will be gone.

It is not uncommon for doves to occupy magpie's nests in newspapers and magazines.

In the final analysis, everyone relies on articles to speak for themselves. If you write well, are well-known, and have a market, then you will be published.

This is similar to a football game. The originally fixed starting forward missed a day because of a cold, so the substitute got the opportunity to come on. Because of his excellent performance, he continued to start the second game, pushing the original starter to the bench.

Wei Tingting did not dare to say this casually. It was not a matter of generosity or not. She must fight for what belongs to her and keep it firmly in her own hands.

So of course Wei Tingting did not agree to A Jiang's request, but her refusal was less direct and more tactful. After all, we are colleagues.

Ajiang smiled, guessing that Wei Tingting would say this, so he didn't take it seriously and looked at the editor-in-chief with his eyes.

Of course Wei Tingting could refuse, and she would refuse, and the same would happen if it were A Jiang. But he is not afraid, because if there is no article, how can you occupy the space?! It is impossible to give you the space to publish it, this is called occupying the pit.

shit.

Ajiang had already asked the layout designer. As of this morning, Tang Shuang's column, which Wei Tingting was in charge of, was still empty. No manuscripts had been brought. How long had it been? Everyone else's layouts had been designed, but you didn't even have the manuscripts.

None.

It was precisely because he knew this that Ah Jiang had the confidence to make demands of Wei Tingting. To say the least, he thought Wu Qing's article was no worse than Tang Shuang's and might be in line with the editor-in-chief's taste, so he just pushed Tang Shuang out.

Sure enough, the editor-in-chief asked Wei Tingting: "Hasn't Tang Shuang's article been handed in this week?"

Wei Tingting complained in her heart and couldn't help complaining about Tang Shuang. She had to push her every time without realizing it! In the past, it was fine. No matter how late it was, she would usually submit the manuscript the day before, but this time it was delayed.

Wei Tingting went with her boyfriend yesterday and forgot to call Tang Shuang to remind her. She originally wanted to be later, but she didn't expect what happened today. A Jiang invited Wu Qing and kept an eye on her position.

She knew that as long as she said "not coming", the editor-in-chief would definitely change the page to A Jiang. As for whether Tang Shuang will be included in the next issue, who knows.

After watching the party last night, she was with her boyfriend the whole time. She didn't check her email at all, so she didn't know whether Tang Shuang's manuscript was there or not, and she didn't dare to make an issue about it.

So I turned around and talked about Tang Shuang's recent situation. "Hero" has occupied the first place in the sales list of Huaxia Bookstore for two consecutive weeks. The serialized novel "The Romance of Dragon and Snake" is extremely popular. There are media reports that many film and television companies are in contact to purchase the copyright...

…

Ajiang's face looked a little bad and he tried to keep calm.

Indeed, Wei Tingting is right. Although Wu Qing is very popular, in terms of fame, he is far behind Tang Shuang. His rising momentum is very strong, and Tang Shuang's rising momentum is even stronger. Compared with this aspect, Wu Qing is not famous at all.

No hope.

but……

Thinking of this, Ajiang smiled and did not refute, waiting to see what the editor-in-chief said.

The editor-in-chief listened patiently to Wei Tingting's words, and praised Tang Shuang with a smile as a typical example of someone who should be famous early. He has achieved such good results at a young age and has a bright future, but...has he submitted the manuscript?

Ajiang almost laughed out loud. He had long wanted to ask Wei Tingting, had he submitted the manuscript? No? What else could he say?

It was very uncomfortable to be stared at. Wei Tingting did not dare and could not say that she had not handed in the manuscript. She said bravely: "Tang Shuang sent me the manuscript last night and was about to hand it over to you for review."

Ajiang's heart tightened, yes, this was what he was most worried about.

But he didn't believe Wei Tingting's words. He had clearly noticed that she was very nervous just now. If Tang Shuang had submitted the manuscript, why would it be so? Nothing would have happened earlier.

"Oh? Tingting, can you tell us now? I'm very interested in Tang Shuang's story. The previous ones were so well written. I don't know what it will be like this time."

Several other reporters and editors here are also interested. Tang Shuang's column story should be the most special among the contents of "United Life Weekly". It is even unique in the whole of China. Not only is his language concise and meaningful,

Moreover, the stories are wild and unpredictable, and often the ending cannot be guessed until the very end.

Since Tang Shuang's column began to be serialized, its popularity has remained high. According to a weekly survey, he has been ranked among the top three among readers' favorite content.

Not only readers love to read it, but the reporters and editors of the weekly also like it very much. Every time when the manuscript is due, everyone comes to Wei Tingting to have a quick look, guess the ending while reading, and get together to discuss enthusiastically after reading.

These stories are not only suspenseful and interesting, they often also have profound meanings. They either directly touch on the deep social phenomena, or directly touch the hearts of readers, tightly grabbing everyone's heart.

Wei Tingting gritted her teeth with hatred for Ajiang in her heart. She really wanted to push him to the ground and spank him! It's weird to believe that you are interested in him.

But in this situation, how could she say no, so she had to go back to her desk to get the computer, praying in her heart that Tang Shuang, you must be more diligent!

Perhaps because he heard Wei Tingting's prayers, Tang Shuang, who was far away in Old Tang's house, got up and started writing stories this morning. He was too busy and lazy this week and didn't want to move, so he postponed writing the column until today.

He knew that this morning was the final deadline, and he didn't want to write until it was urgent.

He had just clicked to send the email, and over there, Wei Tingting was slowly walking to the office. On one hand, she was worried, and on the other hand, she was foolishly hoping to delay it for a while.

She felt like she had walked for a long time in the short distance, her heart was high, and she made up her mind tomorrow, oh, no, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. After the festival, she asked Tang Shuang to come out and chat. She couldn't be so lazy all the time. It just couldn't work.

Ask dad Wei Daqun to take action.

Xiao Li saw Wei Tingting coming back and asked to read Tang Shuang's column story. This time every week is story time, and today is no exception.

When they heard about the story, the colleagues around them put down their work and came over. They already started to guess what kind of story it would be before they even read it.

Wei Tingting was not in the mood to pay attention to them, so she quickly opened her mailbox. Fortunately! At first glance, she saw the unread email lying on the top. The sender was Tang Shuang, and the sending time was just now!

Wei Tingting didn't know whether to laugh or complain. Forget it, let's ignore it for now and talk about it next time we meet.

She eagerly opened the email, tilted her head inadvertently, and was startled. She didn't know when she got up, but there were a bunch of heads crowding behind her.
