Memorandum of Understanding of the Heavens and Worlds

Chapter 24 It was her
In order to express his gratitude, Ponytail insisted on inviting Lin Zhihui to dinner, but Lin Zhihui refused, so he had to follow her to the dining area on the top floor of the supermarket.

"When I work overtime, I often eat here. The taste is very good." The two of them chose a seat by the window, pulled up the chair with ponytails, and said to Lin Zhihui.

Ponytail was obviously a regular visitor here, so he walked to the self-service area in the corner without being greeted by the waiter, and brought over two glasses of water and a few complimentary side dishes on a tray.

The menu is a piece of paper pressed under the table. Lin Zhihui took the water glass and looked down seriously. As a single dog and dead house, he basically has no experience alone with soft girls, and he doesn't know what to say Come liven up the atmosphere.

After ordering the meal on Ponytail's recommendation and watching her talking to the waiter, Lin Zhihui let out a sigh of relief and just wanted to finish eating quickly before leaving.

"If I didn't have you today, I would be miserable." Ponytail looked at Lin Zhihui, and said solemnly: "Thank you for speaking out."

Lin Zhihui waved his hand, signaling to her that you are welcome. His help is not considered a hero to save the beauty, but it is just that he can't see that a good person will end well.

"It was really dangerous just now. If you hadn't seen through their plot and acted in time, I would have been caught as a thief." Ponytail recalled the previous scene, his face turned slightly pale, and he still had lingering fear.

Lin Zhihui took advantage of his quick hands and put the mobile phone in the ponytail bag back into the bag of the crew-cut man. In order to ensure that everyone got the stolen goods, he collected a few wallets and mobile phones from the onlookers and stuffed them silently. into a paper bag in the hands of a middle-aged woman.

But he didn't explain the ponytail in this way, he just said that he knew that the ponytail was innocent when he saw the middle-aged woman wanting to frame her.

"Speaking of which, that person's movements are very big, and most people would pay attention to them, but you didn't notice them at all." Of course Lin Zhihui couldn't say that he saw the whole thing from beginning to end, so he had to change the subject.

"I was so nervous at the time that I didn't notice anything else." Ponytail touched the broken hair next to his ear, and smiled a little shyly: "And maybe it's because I'm too tired from working overtime and reading manuscripts, and I'm already a little mentally ill. "

"That's no wonder." Lin Zhihui nodded, and said curiously: "But you said reading the manuscript? Are you an editor?"

Ponytail didn't deny it, and nodded while protecting the cup with both hands.

"Editing is a good profession." Lin Zhihui said with a smile: "My daily task is to read manuscripts. I am so leisurely and comfortable. How happy I am."

"How can it be leisurely and carefree?" Ponytail opened his eyes wide, and said with a miserable expression: "How many books do you have to review every day, but there are tasks, if you don't reach the stipulated signing amount every month, you will have to deduct bonuses , no overtime pay for overtime work.”

Lin Zhihui blinked, the contract amount?Could it be that Ponytail is the website editor?But this is people's privacy after all, so naturally he can't inquire about it at will.

"But these are actually not hard work, everyone is the same." Ponytail showed a bored look, and his fingers unconsciously drew circles on the rim of the cup: "The most depressing thing is that you obviously read a good book. I tried my best to recommend the book, but I couldn’t get the approval from above.”

"No matter how good it is, if the leader is not satisfied, it's better to let it go first." Lin Zhihui looked at the ponytail who suddenly became depressed, and didn't know how to answer the conversation. After all, the two met by chance, after the meal As long as they go their separate ways, it can basically be considered that they have no contact with each other, and he has no right to dictate other people's work.

"I also understand the truth." The ponytailed rosy lips pursed slightly, and said angrily: "But that book is indeed well written, and it is also very popular now. If you are optimistic, just ignore it, it is not too unfair to writers who write seriously."

Lin Zhihui shrugged his shoulders. This kind of situation is common in the Internet literature circle. How many writers write tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of words because they don’t understand anything, only relying on their enthusiasm for coding. Due to various reasons such as not conforming to the trend or not being favored by the editor, the contract could not be signed in the end, and a lot of energy and time were wasted.Therefore, many mature writers and masters will seek the opinions of editors before opening new books, so as not to be busy.

Based on his understanding of online articles, those who can become the editor-in-chief are generally experienced, and the chance of being mistaken is very small. If he thinks it is worthless, then it can basically be regarded as the conclusion of this book. The persistence of the ponytail is actually It's meaningless, it's more serious to persuade that guy to give up as soon as possible and start anew.

Of course, no matter how ignorant Lin Zhihui is, he would never say such things in front of Ponytail. Regarding her complaint, he just said: "Maybe it is because the content of the book is too small and does not meet the mainstream aesthetics. Anyway, since Your immediate boss has already spoken, so it's better not to confront him."

"Alas." Ponytail also sighed, poking the side dish in front of him with chopsticks, and said without energy: "I'm just complaining about the author, the book is obviously well written, and there are several chapters updated every day, if you can sign a contract, there will definitely be a Good grades, people who worked so hard to write, and believed in our website so much, gave up so hastily, it is really unreasonable.”

"There are so many websites now. If he can't wait for the notice of signing in this one, he will naturally change places. If he really writes well, he will definitely have a bright future." Lin Zhihui said thinking of himself, and there is no hope of signing a contract. It’s not that there are still a lot of people who donate rewards, and there are still gods who don’t come to the ground to chase after updates. Now his rewards, comments and other values ​​are always on the list of Chuangdian website, and he is still attracting attention. There is nothing wrong with it. Look Ponytail was still unhappy, Lin Zhihui continued to explain: "You are an editor, you have to pay attention to adjusting your state, don't be affected by these small things to work relationship, offending the leader will not be worth the loss."

"Well, what you said makes sense." Ponytail nodded and cheered up: "Actually, it's not that I don't understand, I just can't figure it out for the moment. But you're right, there are so many good books now, there is really no need to read them all together It's not worthwhile to hang yourself from a tree and offend the boss for this." As she spoke, she puffed up her chest, took a deep breath, and looked at Lin Zhihui with a smile: "Tell me everything, I feel much better, thank you for your willingness Listen to me talk about these boring things."

"How come, listening to beautiful women is a kind of enjoyment." Lin Zhihui joked, "I won't be bored after listening to it for a long time."

At this time, the set meals ordered by the two were also brought up. Ponytail picked up the chopsticks and began to eat without being so ladylike. Lin Zhihui was already empty in his stomach, so he took a chopstick of beef and put it into his mouth, and asked casually: "By the way, say What's the name of that book?"

"The rise of the God Emperor." Ponytail grabbed a piece of chicken wing and said simply.

Lin Zhihui's raised chopsticks stopped in the air.
