The Wenhao system helped me become a killer
Chapter 218
Early in the morning, Chen Shiming put on his most decent clothes, picked up his briefcase, and prepared to go out. His wife looked at him curiously and asked in a strange tone, "Aren't you going to work today? Why are you wearing this suit?"
It's not that this suit can't be worn, but Chen Shiming usually wears such a suit only when attending more formal occasions. He usually wears a long gown when he goes to work or hangs out with old friends.
Chen Shiming was in a really good mood today. Facing his wife who usually disliked his nagging, he rarely spoke to explain, "I'm going to meet an author today. If it works out, I'll have a popular author in my hands in the future!"
Their salary as editors is directly related to the authors under them. He has read the first few chapters of Shen Wenjiao, which are very exciting. It would be even better if the protagonist was not a woman.
However, this has little impact. Just because this person was introduced by Dr. Jian, he will also strive for the best treatment for the other party in the newspaper.
"This is a good thing!" His wife was in a good mood seeing her husband smiling. After all, the family had more income, and her son and daughter could buy more clothes, making them look more presentable when they go to school.
Chen Shiming arrived at the agreed coffee shop early at noon, waiting anxiously for the author Qingfeng Mingyue who could obviously gain both fame and fortune. Although the pen name looked like a newcomer, with the mature writing style and sophisticated painting style, Chen Shiming guessed that it might be an old author who deliberately came up with a new pen name.
Shen Wenjiao dressed up and walked out of the house. She called a rickshaw at the street corner and went to the coffee shop. If the time was not too tight, Shen Wenjiao would have been more willing to walk leisurely in such a nice day with a suitable temperature.
Speaking of which, this cafe is not too far from where Shen Wenjiao lives.
The cafe was run by a British person. Standing at the door were two half-grown teenagers wearing reception suits with vests and blazers.
As soon as he saw Shen Wenjiao coming, he put on a warm smile like a mask on his face, bowed to her, and said welcome in English.
Shen Wenjiao paused for a moment. It seemed that the two young men were not very old! If it were in modern times, the boss would be reported to the police station for employing child labor. But in this world, being a doorman is already a good job for these young men.
Shen Wenjiao recently wrote about a time-traveling heroine who had a similar experience to hers. She thought more and more about modern life, and more and more thoughts surged in her mind. It was like a silent volcano, which would either erupt in silence or become abnormal in silence.
A waiter came forward politely after seeing Shen Wenjiao, "Hello, Miss. Welcome. Are you alone?"
Shen Wenjiao looked at the man who was leaning forward and talking, and shook her head slightly, "No, I have an appointment with a Mr. Chen, and I think he has already reserved a seat!"
The waiter looked at Shen Wenjiao in surprise, and then asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Chen Shiming?"
Shen Wenjiao thought about what Jian Xingzhi said, an honest and perceptive editor, who seemed to have forgotten to tell her his name except for his surname, Chen.
But I can't be wrong! It can't be such a coincidence that there are people meeting in this coffee shop with the surname Chen!
"It should be." Shen Wenjiao nodded with a somewhat uncertain tone. At worst, she could just admit her mistake and find someone else.
No matter how strange the waiter felt, after getting Shen Wenjiao's confirmation, he led her to a seat near the window.
At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties, who looked rather frail, was already sitting in this position. He was drinking coffee casually, watching the passers-by coming and going outside the window.
"Mr. Chen, your friend has arrived~"
At this time, Chen Shiming also felt the waiter bringing someone to his table. To be honest, he saw Shen Wenjiao when she came in just now, but he didn't expect that the other party was the person he was waiting for today.
Shen Wenjiao secretly smiled as she watched the other person's face turn into a state of shock. She smiled and said, "Hello, Editor Chen. I am Qingfeng Mingyue, the author of The Kingdom of Daughters."
Yes, the revised novel is now called "The Kingdom of Women", which means that the heroine finally overcame all difficulties and established a business empire for women to settle down and make a living, the Kingdom of Women.
At this point, the expression on editor Chen Shiming's face was extremely interesting, switching back and forth from "are you kidding me?" to "how is that possible?" He originally thought that the person who could write such an article was a middle-aged man with rich experience, and because of the occasional humorous words, he even thought it was a talented young student.
But Shen Wenjiao in front of him told him that he was too conservative and this could be a young bean sprout.
At this point, Shen Wenjiao's gender no longer caused any doubt or surprise to the other party.
He is really too young! It is doubtful whether he can graduate from high school or not!
Chen Shiming never expected that the author he met today would be so young, especially since Shen Wenjiao was wearing pink clothes today, making her look a little younger than usual!
Shen Wenjiao smiled and ordered herself a cappuccino, drinking it slowly, waiting for the other party to react.
Fortunately, Editor Chen was an experienced editor, not a young man who would get startled easily, and he quickly recovered. However, his face was still slightly red, because he had just been too rude.
"I'm sorry, I never thought that the author of such a wonderful novel "The Kingdom of Women" is so young, really~"
Shen Wenjiao took a sip of coffee and said with a very happy smile, "Haha, if you don't believe me, how about I tell you about the rest of the manuscript? Including the ones that have been handed over to you. Although I can't memorize them, I can still give you a general idea!"
Chen Shiming waved his hands quickly. This was not necessary. Whoever wrote the article was the author. It was not something that could be easily impersonated. After all, he already had a very exciting opening chapter in his hand. Only the real author knew the plot above!
"No need. I believe you are Qing Feng Ming Yue. With Doctor Jian as your guarantor, there shouldn't be any big problems."
In the Republic of China, people paid great attention to recommendation. Many times, graduates needed a recommendation letter from their teachers to apply for jobs. With or without a recommendation letter, the degree of trust others have in you is completely different.
