In fact, people in the early 1980s were also very smart.

At least in terms of IQ, those who can occupy a certain position or make certain achievements are not necessarily worse than Cao Zhiqiang.

What really sets Cao Zhiqiang apart from his contemporaries is his knowledge and tricks.

Not to mention that the system is plugged in, but Cao Zhiqiang's experience of more than 40 years at this time is scary enough.

For example, the "Zhiyin" magazine mentioned by Cao Zhiqiang.

He only needs to take out the successful parts of Zhiyin Magazine in his impression, and then remove the failure aspects of Zhiyin Magazine in advance, and set the tone for running the magazine. The rest is to obtain the license and invest funds.

In other words, there is no need for Cao Zhiqiang to worry about what to do next. People like Yu Deli know what to do.

After all, compared to writing books and singing, Cao Zhiqiang really knows nothing about how to run a magazine, and he is really not as experienced as Yu Deli and others.

What Cao Zhiqiang can do is to point out the direction and set the tone from a high position.

Just like now, Cao Zhiqiang only needs to decide the name of the magazine, establish the content tone and founding purpose of the magazine.

Just like when he writes out the program of an organization, of course he has to get a regular issue and invest enough funds, then how to develop it, how to receive manuscripts, how to review manuscripts, how to distribute them, that is not what he needs to worry about.

It's over.

In fact, compared to income, the magazine is what Yu Deli and others are most concerned about.

After all, what Yu Deli and others are most familiar with is running magazines. As for publishing books... at least so far, the publishing house relies on Cao Zhiqiang's ability to maintain it. Everyone is just helping Cao Zhiqiang, and there is no room for their own development.

On the contrary, if a magazine is opened, they can receive and review manuscripts in a serious way, and have serious things to do, instead of cleaning, supervising in the warehouse, or going to Xinhua Bookstore and various places like now.

Bookstall checks and records.

Those things are not unimportant, but they always feel demeaning and more like a little brother who collects protection money. They are not as high-level as sitting in an office smoking, drinking tea and reviewing manuscripts.

Well, although Cao Zhiqiang stipulates that smoking is not allowed in the office, you can go to the smoking area to smoke.

The rooftop is everyone’s favorite place because it is a smoking area.

Big smokers like Yu Deli now like to go to the rooftop the most, because they can blow in the wind, watch the scenery, smoke, and chat.

In the past, they just looked to the future.

Now, they can finally stop looking ahead.

Because the future is about to come true.

They will be launching a magazine soon!

I can finally show off my talents and get what I want!

"Why are you crying?" Cao Zhiqiang looked confused when he saw Yu Deli and other magazine people actually started wiping away tears, "Do you have any opinions on what I said?"

"No, President." Yu Deli took off his glasses and wiped his tears with a handkerchief as he said, "We are so excited that we have finally reached this point."

"Yes." Another man with glasses, Zhao Shouwen, also sighed, "Finally we have a place for us to be useful. We can finally be serious editors and no longer have to be errand runners."

"What are you talking about?" the big man Liu Donghai said immediately, "There is no distinction between high and low professions. What's wrong with running errands? Running errands is also a serious job."

"Yes, yes." Zhao Shouwen immediately woke up and turned to Cao Zhiqiang and said, "President, I don't dislike my current job, I just feel that, well, I can finally do something that I am good at, so I cried with joy.

"

"Hey." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Okay, don't cry anymore. Since you like working on magazines, then work hard and strive to make our soulmate known to the world and make it the number one magazine in the world."

"That's right!" Zhao Shouwen said loudly, "Either we don't do it, or if we do it, we will be number one in the world!"

"Okay, what we need is this kind of momentum!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Everyone should learn from Lao Zhao, that is, if you have this kind of momentum and confidence, you should be the first!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Zhao Shouwen. He looked a little embarrassed and couldn't help lowering his head and adjusting his glasses.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and shook his head: "Okay, I will leave the matter of Zhiyin Magazine to Lao Chen and Lao Yu."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang looked at Chen Jiabang: "Old Chen, you have to take action on issues such as the magazine's issue number and distribution.

It's up to you how to socialize with those relevant people and how to do public relations.

Anyway, it’s time to spend money and eat, you can’t save this money, you must do it beautifully and keep public accounts.”

"Don't worry." Chen Jiabang nodded with a smile, "I know what to do."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded and looked at Yu Deli: "Lao Yu, as for you, you don't need to worry about anything else, just do a good job in establishing the magazine, such as layout design, content review, etc.

Especially the points I mentioned, such as highlighting the title, fanning the content, etc., must be done.

Anyway, it must be sentimental and good-looking, and no articles that are as bland as water are allowed.”

"Don't worry." Yu Deli nodded, "I know what to do."

"Very good, let's do that." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Everyone is still the same, performing their duties and uniting to help each other. I believe that our tomorrow will be better!"

"Okay!" Chen Jiabang suddenly took the lead in applauding.

When Chen Jiabang applauded, others immediately followed suit.

Just like that, everyone started to look at Cao Zhiqiang and applaud.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled bitterly and pressed down his hands twice: "Okay, okay, be quiet, be quiet."

After saying this, the applause gradually disappeared.

Cao Zhiqiang took a deep breath, and then said: "Well, I have said everything that needs to be said, and I will just say the last thing."

After a brief pause, Cao Zhiqiang added: "In short, the publishing house is not only mine, but also everyone's.

Only when the publishing house continues to prosper and become more prosperous can everyone's life get better and better.

From now on, if you have any difficulties, you can come to me. The door of my office is open to you at any time.

Okay, that’s it, the meeting is over!”

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang stood up directly.

Zhao Shouwen suddenly stood up: "The president said it well!"

After saying this, Zhao Shouwen started to applaud.

Everyone had no choice but to stand up and applaud.

This made Cao Zhiqiang a little uncomfortable. He glared at Zhao Shouwen and then waved his hand again:

"Okay, okay, why are we doing all this formalism?

As long as you do your job well, you will be my greatest support.

That’s it, the meeting is over, let’s go and do what we have to do, and don’t applaud anymore!”

After saying that, Cao Zhiqiang turned around and left without looking back.

Cao Zhiqiang had just left the conference room. A young man in a suit standing in the corner could not help but curl his lips: "Flattery!"

"Shen Zhenhua!" Zhao Shouwen immediately stared at him, "Who are you talking about?"

"I'm calling you a flatterer." Shen Zhenhua glared back, "What, you claimed it yourself?"

"You..." Zhao Shouwen frowned, then smiled, "Haha, that's right, why are I angry with you? We all really rely on our ability to make a living. Unlike you, there is really no other way to go except to flatter you.

Already.

It's a pity that President Cao has sharp eyes. He can see through who has the ability and who doesn't at a glance.

Even if you are flattering, you have to be somewhat capable, otherwise, why would people let you flatter?"

"You, you..." Shen Zhenhua gritted his teeth and glared at Zhao Shouwen, "Weren't you just a warehouse keeper before? What's so great about it?"

"Huh, I'm here to look after the warehouse." Zhao Shouwen adjusted his glasses, "But I am a technical secondary school graduate, so I am better than you, a junior high school student, right?"

"That's enough!" Yu Deli said suddenly, "What's the decency of this? Shut up!"

After suppressing the quarrel among his subordinates, Yu Deli looked at Chen Jiabang who said nothing: "President Chen, they are just joking. They are used to bickering. Don't worry about it."

Chen Jiabang looked at Yu Deli expressionlessly, then at Zhao Shouwen and Shen Zhenhua, and finally at the others.

When everyone was a little uneasy, Chen Jiabang said with a smile: "I don't care how you make trouble in private, but one thing is that the tasks assigned by President Cao must be strictly carried out without making any mistakes."

Having said this, Chen Jiabang paused for a moment, and then said to Yu Deli and others expressionlessly: "I believe you have also seen that the most important person in this publishing house is President Cao. Without President Cao, the publishing house would not be what it is today.

You people, don’t think too highly of yourself, thinking that it’s impossible to live without you.

Let me tell you the truth, you are just lucky and have known President Cao since childhood, so you have the opportunity to sit here.

In fact, there are a lot of people like you in society.

Even without you, we can always find a bunch of replacements.

A scholar, huh, who is not a scholar?

In today's society, do you know how many educated and unemployed young people are unemployed?

Therefore, you must be self-aware. It is you who need President Cao and our Hongguang Machinery Factory, not us who need you.

No matter what President Cao is, he is still from our Hongguang Machinery Factory. His parents are from our factory, so he and we are our own people.

Don't just rely on the fact that you have known President Cao early and that President Cao is approachable to raise your tail and always feel that you are superior to others.

President Cao is a nice person, but that doesn't mean he is stupid.
