1189: Congratulations, you are going to become a full-time member (still 15)
"Brother-in-law, if Zhao Dong asks you again, just meet him and listen to what he will say."
Xie Qian had already told Jiang Youjia about Zhao Dong's autobiography, but Xie Qian did not elaborate on the details.
I can't talk about this, I can't say it out loud!
Who would have guessed that it was Xie Jinghu who instigated Zhao Dong to approach Zou Weijun!
Xie Jinghu is a psycho!
Xie Qian only said that Zhao Dong was going to publish an autobiography, in order to integrate into the cultural circle of Chengdu and to promote and package Zhao Dong's overseas business background, but Jiang Youjia was disgusted.
"This autobiography cannot be published. It's too disgusting. Even if he goes after my dad, my dad won't let go easily."
What kind of former Qing Hanlin!
Hanlin is such a noble official position, and Zhao Dong has such an ancestor. If he knows what his descendants will do after they go abroad, he will be so angry that he will jump out of his grave.
If you do it, just do it, but you still have to package it for an autobiography.
Is this trying to deceive domestic readers, defraud banks of their money, or deceive the government into giving them a green light?
Zhao Dong can keep it secret for a lifetime, but if someone exposes it, the company that publishes his autobiography, Rongcheng Publishing, will be embarrassed.
Zhao Dong was unable to apply for an ISBN. The ISBN must be applied for by the publisher, and the content of the publication will naturally be reviewed by the publisher.
The more Jiang Youjia thought about it, the angrier he became, "He will cheat anyone who reviews books for him!"
Xie Qian was slightly startled.
Jiang Youjia's words provided Xie Qian with an idea.
Xie Qian never understood Xie Jinghu's motives. Maybe Xie Jinghu really thought so and asked Zou Weijun to publish a fabricated autobiography. Isn't it Zou Weijun's fault that the Zhao family's scandal was exposed?
Zou Weijun's proofreading is irresponsible.
Zou Weijun is not suitable to work in the publishing department.
The professional confidence that was finally built up was ruined again because of this incident... Could this be Xie Jinghu's purpose, or one of his purposes?
"Brother-in-law, then you need to see Zhao Dong even more."
Jiang Youjia reluctantly nodded, "If I am disgusted by Zhao Dong, will it be considered a work-related injury? You will reimburse me, right?"
Xie Qian couldn't wake up a person who was acting too much, so he just kept silent.
…
Money can make ghosts go around, let alone literati.
It is easy for a scholar to lose his integrity, but it is difficult to pick it up again.
Song Foxiang accepted Zhao Dong's ghostwriting commission for the sake of money. He also wanted to write well at first. After all, there is no airtight wall in the world. Two or three friends already knew about writing for Zhao Dong.
, in the future Zhao Dong’s autobiography will be released, and his friends will see that he is perfunctory and will also lose his reputation as Song Foxiang.
Unfortunately, Zhao Dong himself did not cooperate.
Does Zhao Dong want a stunning and perfect autobiography?
No!
Zhao Dong received Xie Jinghu's advice and just wanted to use his autobiography to open up the local cultural circle in Chengdu. Naturally, the sooner the better!
Under Zhao Dong's urging, Song Foxiang had no time to make several revisions, so he stayed up all night and wrote Zhao Dong's autobiography in the shortest possible time. Song Foxiang himself was very dissatisfied with this first draft, but Zhao
Dong was so anxious that Song Foxiang could only hold back his anger and rush to finish the manuscript.
Since becoming the editor-in-chief of a magazine, Song Foxiang has not cooperated with someone like Zhao Dong for a long time. Cultural people are extremely reserved even when talking about money. How can they be so straightforward and impatient like Zhao Dong? They really spent a lot of money.
You have to treat people like donkeys.
Song Foxiang was not grateful to Zhao Dong after receiving his reward. Instead, he called Zhao Dong a big boss at home:
"With this quality, you dare to claim to be from a scholarly family!"
Song Chan felt sorry for Song Foxiang and asked Song Foxiang not to take this kind of job in the future.
Song Foxiang wrote the autobiography for Zhao Dong, and Song Chan also contributed part of it. It was Song Chan who helped Song Foxiang organize the information provided by Zhao Dong, and Song Chan helped proofread the first draft.
"Dad, please don't deal with Mr. Zhao in the future. He is rich, but our family is not short of money either."
Song Foxiang is both a writer and the editor-in-chief of a magazine. The Song family is not considered rich in Chengdu, but they are indeed not short of money. Even Song Chan herself is still in high school and can already earn her own royalties. In the early years, Song Foxiang and
His wife is divorced, and the Song family only consists of father and daughter. Song Chan can make money at a young age, and the Song family's living standard is considered a middle-class family in Chengdu.
The premise is that Song Chan does not study abroad.
The first prize in the New Concept Essay Contest was enough for Song Foxiang to get her daughter into a prestigious domestic school with reduced scores. However, the requirements of her favorite prestigious school were quite high, so Song Foxiang still had to get double insurance for her daughter.
If Song Chan is not admitted to the school of his choice, he is willing to settle for the next best thing. Song Fo Township does not allow it yet. He plans to send his daughter to study abroad. It’s okay if he doesn’t go abroad. If he wants to go abroad, he has to go to the most developed country, even if the cost is high.
, Song Foxiang also recognized it!
It is for this reason that Song Foxiang was willing to ghostwrite for Zhao Dong.
Listening to his daughter Song Chan's evaluation of Zhao Dong, Song Foxiang just sighed: "You are still young and don't understand what adults think."
The Song family's wealth is far inferior to that of returned overseas Chinese businessmen. Song Foxiang and Zhao Dong interacted not only for the reward, but also because of Zhao Dong's status.
Zhao Dong came back from the United States. The Zhao family has been rooted in the United States for three generations. Song Foxiang wrote an autobiography for Zhao Dong. He wrote about Zhao Dong's origins. Naturally, he knew that Zhao Dong's aunt was admitted to a prestigious American school. Song Foxiang wrote an autobiography for Zhao Dong.
Chan will go to the United States to study in the future, and Song Foxiang may even ask for Zhao Dong.
Song Foxiang wanted something from Zhao Dong, but he scolded and cared about Zhao Dong's affairs at the same time.
Zhao Dong's autobiography was ghostwritten by Song Foxiang, and a new person who wanted to edit the publishing department was appointed to publish it.
"My name is Zou Weijun, who planned the book series "Hush, Little Secret"."
Song Chan's expression was unnatural now.
Song Chan's book was reprinted and put on the market. It was originally an ambitious attempt to boost sales. However, it happened to encounter the phenomenal popular science book "Hush, Little Secret". Song Chan's book failed miserably.
If not, Song Foxiang wouldn't have to bend over backwards to ghostwrite Zhao Dong's autobiography. Song Chan's royalties and study abroad expenses could cover a large part of it.
Song Chan's expression was unnatural, and Song Foxiang felt unhappy.
It would be nice if "Hush, Little Secret" comes out later.
But that Zou Weijun was a new employee who just arrived in the editorial and publishing department last year. He was not well-known in the industry before. Not long after joining the job, he planned a hit book. Not to mention that Song Foxiang didn't expect it. I'm afraid no one in the editing and publishing department could.
think.
Song Chan lacks some luck, but Zou Weijun is too lucky!
Song Chan whispered: "It doesn't have to be that Zou Weijun. The reason why "Hush, Little Secret" became so popular is not entirely due to planning and marketing."
Everyone in Song Fo Township understands the truth.
But Mr. Zhao insisted on going his own way and only targeted Zou Weijun. What could Song Foxiang do?
Zhao Dong asked Song Foxiang to help connect people. Song Foxiang only heard of Zou Weijun by name but never met him. This time he went to find Zou Weijun for Zhao Dong's matter. When he saw Zou Weijun, Song Foxiang was shocked.
Since the divorce, Song Foxiang has dated many girlfriends.
There are female writers in the circle.
A female boss who has her own business.
There are also female literary youths who admire Song Foxiang.
Some of them are younger than Zou Weijun, and some are more beautiful than Zou Weijun, but none of them can match Zou Weijun's temperament.
——Isn’t this the temperament beauty I have been looking for?!
