Chapter 59 France feast
After breakfast the next day, jiang chuheng and xu yueyang took Zhou Yunyang, a small follower, to deal with the affairs in the factory, while ji Dongming drove Li Haitang to the headquarters of the Oriental weekly to meet the chief editor.
The Oriental weekly was based in the busiest business circle in Hushi, and it took more than 20 minutes to get there. After Li Haitang got out of the car, he scanned the surroundings. It was not as prosperous as in the afterlife, but it had a unique nostalgic taste.
Ji Dongming had a familiar elder working here. He was his father's junior. He took Li Haitang to visit this elder first, and after explaining his intention, the other party obviously looked up at Li Haitang and personally took him to see the chief editor.
The editor in chief of the Oriental weekly, zhou, was a middle-aged man in his forties. He had been writing to Li Haitang for nearly a year and only now did he know that the author "Mu Zihaitang" he had high hopes for was a 16-year-old high school student.
The room was eerily silent for nearly half a minute. Editor zhou held the glasses on the bridge of his nose and stared at Li Haitang for a long time before saying, "Are you really Mu Zihaitang?"
Li Haitang smiled and took out a series of letters and money orders from Editor zhou's backpack, "Editor zhou, I knew you would be confused. No, I brought all the evidence."
"Hehe, this is really too unexpected." Editor zhou quickly flipped through her evidence and smiled, "You're so young, but your writing is not at all green. I read the manuscript myself, and the handwriting is very elegant. I always thought you were a teacher at the Tam city 1 middle school, and I never thought you were just a high school student with a heavy workload."
Li Haitang joked, "Editor zhou, now you know why I'm slow to write. I really can't help it. The class work is too heavy, and the teacher in charge is watching closely. I really squeeze the time between my teeth to write."
"Haha, now it's clear. However, even if I knew you were a high school student, I still had to rush you. Your third fantasy novel was really popular. Our newspaper received a lot of calls every day, and the staff who answered the phone were so upset by them." Editor zhou didn't lie. This happened in the newspaper.
Li Haitang smiled and said, "I sent over 200,000 manuscripts a few days ago. I should be here in the next two days. I didn't receive your letter until I finished. If I had known, I wouldn't have voted. It would have been faster to bring it over."
"Okay, okay, 200,000 drafts will be enough to cover a period of time." Editor zhou called the department below and told them the good news.
After that, he talked to her about the film and television company in Port city. Editor zhou explained the situation to them in detail. Considering that Li Haitang was still an underage student, he suggested that their newspaper agency act as an intermediary to get in touch with each other and try his best to help her negotiate this matter to the best possible outcome.
After discussing it with Ji Dongming for a while, Li Haitang agreed to his proposal. The newspaper couldn't help her for no reason. Naturally, it involved the interests of cooperation. With a common purpose, the newspaper would naturally do its best to achieve mutual benefit and win-win. Based on this, Li Haitang was assured to agree.
After the news agency finished talking, it was already noon time. Editor zhou insisted on treating them to a meal. Li Haitang could not help but agree and had a very authentic Hushi food in a big restaurant not far from the news agency.
When he left, Ji Dongming made a phone call to the factory and found out that jiang chuheng and jiang chuheng were still working in the factory. He drove Li Haitang directly to the printing equipment factory.
"Pengcheng" was the name of the printing equipment factory. Well, in ji Dongming's words, it was more magnanimous. Li Haitang chuckled inwardly and praised it with great fanfare.
The location of pengcheng printing equipment factory was rented, and there was a certain distance from the city. The two of them chatted while driving, from the school's interesting stories to the future plot development of the novel, to the future research of printing equipment, and so on. The two of them chatted more and more vigorously, and in the end, they actually had a feeling that they hated each other too late.
More than 40 minutes later, they arrived at the Pengcheng printing equipment factory. After getting off the car, Ji Dongming took her straight into the office.
As soon as they walked in, jiang chuheng and xu yueyang were talking about business while Zhou Yunyang, a bookworm, was reading the books.
Seeing the two of them coming back, Zhou Yunyang immediately dropped the book in his hand and couldn't wait to ask the result, "Li Haitang, how's it going? Did you come up with any results today?"
Li Haitang took the iced soda from Ji Dongming, and with a faint smile on his face, he told them everything that happened today.
"Tsk, tsk, okay. With the news agency, you have to save a lot of time and effort. This is the best way for you right now." Xu Yueyang looked at her with faint admiration.
Li Haitang felt the same way in her heart. After all, she was young and had no access or experience in this area. She would be very passive when she first came into contact with this matter. The newspapers were different. They were familiar with the process and had strong connections and social connections. It would be easy for them to negotiate.
Jiang Chuheng's deep eyes flashed with a doting light that even he himself did not notice. He smiled gently and said, "Great writer li, this matter is basically settled. Do you want to invite a guest?"
"No problem. We're going to have a big meal tonight. The location is up to you." Li Haitang was full of pride.
Ji Dongming, as the host, was much more familiar with Hushi than they were, "I know there's a new France restaurant by the river. My classmate said that the foie gras and steak there are delicious. His sister came back from studying in Paris. She went there once and said that the taste is very authentic. Let's go there tonight and let great writer li have some blood."
Zhou Yunyang was the first to raise his hand in agreement, "Okay, let's go to France restaurant."
Li Haitang also liked goose liver in her previous life, but since it was expensive, she could only try it once a year at most. But now that she was reborn, without a bunch of vampires tying her up, she could live a natural life, eating whatever she wanted, buying whatever she wanted, and without any scruples, she made the decision, "Okay, let's go eat foie gras and steak! However, when we are both growing up, we may not be full of either. We will find a place to eat supper later."
"Haha, Li Haitang, the three of them have all grown up. You and I are the only ones left. I don't usually eat much. You're the only one with a big stomach. You're the one who wants to eat too much and drag us in. Why didn't I notice you were so thick-skinned before?" Zhou Yunyang rudely exposed her shortcomings.
Li Haitang rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not going to argue with you, the idiot who will never find a partner in the future."
This sentence is really heartbreaking!
Everyone else burst into laughter. Zhou Yunyang was indeed a simpleton. If things went on like this, there was a real chance that he would not be able to find a partner in the future.
Li Haitang patted xu yueyang on the shoulder and reminded him in a serious tone, "Yueyang, how happy you are now and how ugly you will cry in the future. You, brother, will have to worry a lot about Zhou Yunyang's life."
Xu Yueyang's exaggerated laughter came to an abrupt end, and her words made sense. It seemed that he had to prepare earlier.
After resting in the office for a while, jiang chuheng took Li Haitang to the workshop to look at the new equipment they bought and the production line that was still under construction.
The factory they rented was not very big, but although sparrow was small and had all the necessary organs, after a round of inspection, they found that the staff and equipment had basically arrived, and they could start work soon.
After returning to the office, Li Haitang handed the fifty thousand yuan he had promised to Ji Dongming, which he took out from the bank near the newspaper office after lunch today.
Ji Dongming was also very straightforward and signed a series of contract agreements with her on the spot. After finishing their work here, they drove to the France restaurant.
This France restaurant is located on the edge of the Bund, Pujiang, the location is naturally excellent, the restaurant decoration is particularly romantic and poetic, in this era is more unique, the resplendent night scenery of Pujiang also added a bit of mystery and elegance to it.
Sitting in a restaurant decorated with orange lights and listening to melodious light music, the five of them chatted while sipping delicious juice.
Not long after, the waiter delivered their order.
The foie gras in this restaurant was delicately made, with a layer of pecans sprinkled on it. The crispness of the nuts was accompanied by the sweet and sour taste of the cranberries, and the foie gras was not greasy at all. After tasting it, it felt like the trip was worth it.
All the dishes were as exquisite as art, and the perfect color combination was even more unbearable. After struggling for a while, Li Haitang picked up the knife and hairpin and started to work.
Jiang Chuheng noticed her movements and was a little confused. Her actions and actions were not like a country girl coming out of a ravine at all. Sometimes, she inadvertently displayed more elegant manners than the children of many high-ranking families in the city. She always blamed it on reading books and newspapers, but he didn't believe it. He always felt that she was born with it.
Li Haitang ate quickly and soon finished the foie gras. He turned his head and saw jiang chuheng staring at him. He asked, "Chu heng, what's wrong? Why aren't you eating?"
Jiang chu's eyes twinkled, and his deep, magnetic voice was as pleasant as the sound of a cello, "I don't really like the taste."
"Ah? Then why don't I order you something else? Pizza? Cream bread or cake?" Li Haitang asked.
Jiang chuheng smiled and said, "No, I'll just have steak."
"Well, then we'll have supper later. You should have more of your own." If you treat yourself, you have to let the guests eat and drink.
"Okay." Jiang Chuheng really didn't like this kind of food. Soldiers lived a rough life. In his opinion, it was better to eat this foie gras than to eat the dry food for the march.
If Li Haitang knew what he was thinking, he would laugh for three days.
Sitting opposite them, Xu Yueyang and Ji Dongming looked at each other in agreement. The devil had a gentle side, but the devil's taste was so unique that even such a small girl would not let it go.
In their hearts, they cursed in unison: dressed animals.
As for the idiot Zhou Yunyang, he didn't see anything unusual at all. Even if he did, he probably didn't understand. He kept lowering his head to fight the goose liver steak.
