Inside the building of Oriental Daily, Tian Guangzheng stood respectfully in Ma Chengkun’s office at this time, telling in detail the ‘facts’ that happened in front of him a few days ago.
And Ma Chengkun is looking down at the Ming Pao on the table, and what comes into view is the commentary by Jin Yong.
are several issues of "Jiuding Daily" collected by Tian Guang, and each issue is turned to the novel section of "Xun Qin Ji".
At this time, Ma Chengkun was expressionless, but Tian Guang felt that the temperature in the entire office seemed to drop a little.
"...I heard a few words from Wu Neng at the time, and I felt that this "Xun Qin Ji" should be good. I wanted to ask another question, but Wu Neng had already said that it rejected the manuscript. I haven't read it. , Missed opportunity, boss, I was at fault."
"Moreover, I also checked. The owner of "Jiuding Daily" and the author of "Xun Qin Ji" are the same person. I heard that it was because there was no way to publish novels, so I simply bought a newspaper to publish novels." Tian Guanggong Said respectfully, and stopped speaking after speaking, stood upright and stopped speaking, and even breathed as lightly as possible.
After listening to Tian Guang's words, Ma Chengkun did not express his opinion, and continued to read the "Xun Qin Ji" in the newspaper without looking up.
"Shasha..."
"咚......咚......咚......"
For a while, only the sound of reading newspapers and the sound of fingers tapping on the table can be heard in the office.
As time passed, Ma Chengkun's face became gloomy, and his fingers tapped the table faster.
Then, Ma Chengkun raised his head and glanced at Tian Guang. This look gave Tian Guang a feeling of being seen through.
"Will the boss find out my careful thoughts?"
Tian Guang couldn't help swallowing his saliva, his heart beat faster with a guilty conscience, unknowingly sweating on his forehead, he lowered his head slightly, and looked at the floor. Thunder Fury.
He didn't forget what kind of person the boss was.
It can only be said that Tian Guang also took a big risk in order to cheat on Wu Neng. If it weren't for the resentment towards Wu Neng in his heart, Tian Guang really didn't have the courage to inform the boss and reported the facts. '.
Fortunately, it did not usher in the boss's thunder anger.
"Very well, you have to report to it in time. It's not your fault that you didn't leave "Xun Qin Ji". You must pay more attention in the future. Go out first and call Wu Neng in." Ma Chengkun said lightly.
"Okay, boss!" Tian Guang said immediately, then carefully exited the office and gently closed the door.
After he left the house, Tian Guang took a deep breath, wiped his forehead and murmured softly, "I was scared to death, but fortunately the boss was not angry."
"It's just that Wu Neng, the boss is not angry with me, then you will suffer, hehe!" Tian Guang sneered, and thought to himself.
After Tian Guang went out, Ma Chengkun's face turned hideous and scary.
Tian Guang can see things, how can Ma Chengkun, an old river and lake, fail to see it?
Moreover, he knows that "Xun Qin Ji" poses a much greater threat to "Dongfang Daily".
Because of Jin Yong’s sealing pen, Ming Pao is also constantly penetrating into the field of high-level intellectuals. Therefore, the grassroots level has relaxed its management, and the Oriental Daily has seized the opportunity, hoping to win over the grassroots.
Because of the relatively low cultural quality and the inability to understand those deep-seated things, the best way to attract grassroots readers is interesting news and novels. This is also the reason why Ma Chengkunhua received high prices.
I just never thought that the money was spent, and I didn't receive a good book. Instead, even Jin Yong was optimistic about "Looking for the Qin".
If it is simply a pity for a good book, and "Xun Qin Ji" is buried, Ma Chengkun will not be very angry.
It’s just that the book "Looking for the Qin", which was rejected by myself, became the "Jiuding Daily", and the "Jiuding Daily" also had a strong impact on the "Oriental Daily". In just a few days, the sales of "Oriental Daily" were steadily Decline. Yesterday, it dropped again. The total sales fell below 160,000 copies to only 158,000 copies. Compared with the peak period, it has dropped by more than 10,000 copies. This situation is still known by my father, and it was paid yesterday. Being told by his father, Ma Chengkun was in a bad mood.
And today, I learned even worse news. The "Xun Qin Ji" of "Jiuding Daily" was recommended by Jin Yong. It is completely foreseeable that the sales of "Jiuding Daily" will soar again.
Of the four factors that Li Nan analyzed yesterday, the third influencing factor is the weakest. After all, no matter how good the book "Looking for the Qin" is, it has only been serialized for a few days, with only tens of thousands of words. Support is small after all.
Only now with Jin Yong’s assist, this situation will change drastically.
Of course, this is not what makes Ma Chengkun the most irritating. It is the last paragraph of Tian Guang that makes him angry.
It was because "Xun Qin Ji" was rejected and had to buy a newspaper to serialize it, and then "Jiu Ding Daily" appeared.
Although I don't know the truth or not of what Tian Guang said, Ma Chengkun already believed most of it in his heart, because reason told him that this situation is very likely to be true.
Thinking of adding an opponent for no reason, "Oriental Daily" would be shocked again. Ma Chengkun's heart burned with anger and murderous heart.
The reason for all of this is because his editor Wu Neng has no eyes!
……
At this time, in the original office, Wu Nengzheng, the middle-aged editor who rejected Xia Yu's manuscript, was paralyzed on a stool with both eyes blankly. The Ming Pao and Jiuding Daily were on the desk.
Apparently he also saw Jin Yong's comments and recognized the book "Xun Qin Ji".
After all, although a large number of manuscripts have to be reviewed every day during this period, Xia Yu also left some impressions in his heart. Of course, this impression is a bad impression.
Yesterday, he discovered that the "Xun Qin Ji" in the "Jiu Ding Daily" was the one that he rejected and discarded as rubbish. Of course, he was scared in a cold sweat after seeing it. Of course he understood what it meant.
Later, at yesterday's meeting, he did not dare to take a breath, and when he heard the three analyses mentioned by the Minister of Information Li Nan, he was even more alarmed.
He thought about it last night. When the manuscript was rejected that day, there was only one Tian Guang sitting next to him, but he thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to say anything, Tian Guang hadn't read the manuscript, so he probably didn't know which one was rejected. "Looking for the Qin".
Just don't know why, he is always a little uneasy, after all, he has done something bad and it has also affected the newspaper. But he can’t help it, UU reading can only
Pray not to be known by the boss.
It's just a pity. After he bought Ming Pao as usual, when he saw Jin Yong's comments, his mind suddenly exploded and he became desperate early in the morning.
Now, he has been sitting in the chair for half an hour, doing nothing, his mind is in chaos, regret, worry, fear and other emotions fill his mind.
At this moment, Tian Guang walked in and said nonchalantly: "Brother Wu, the boss is looking for something to do with you."
After Tian Guang finished speaking, he found that Wu Neng was still indifferent and seemed to be in a trance. He raised his brows and glanced at Wu Neng's desktop. After seeing the Ming Pao, his mouth raised a faint smile. But immediately disappeared again, and shouted again with a louder voice.
"Brother Wu, Brother Wu, the boss wants you to go to his office."
"Huh?" Wu Neng was awakened. After hearing Tian Guang's words, his face changed instantly, and he yelled out in panic.
"Go ahead, don't let the boss wait for a long time." Tian Guang said again.
"You won't be discovered by the boss, will you? What should I do?" Wu Neng thought subconsciously.
People who have done bad things are always afraid of ghosts knocking on the door!
"Grunt." Wu Neng swallowed, then smiled and asked Tian Guang, "Oda, do you know what the boss is looking for?"
"I don't know, I also happened to be passing by the boss's office, and the boss asked me to call you. Go, don't let the boss wait for a long time." Tian Guang said with a puzzled look.
"Okay." Wu Neng smiled reluctantly, and then stepped up his heavy legs and walked toward the boss's office.
Looking at Wu Neng's heavy back, a sneer crossed the corner of Tian Guang's mouth, and a feeling of revenge spontaneously emerged.
