Sheep and Wolf

While waiting for lunch, An Yiyang's cell phone rang. He didn't want to answer it at first, but he glanced at it and found that it was Li Qi who answered it: "Old——"

"Speaking weakly, what's wrong with you?"

"Hey--"

"Why are you sighing? Didn't you tell me to come to my office after talking with Mr. Gong? You actually went back straight to me, didn't you feel itchy? I also want to confirm the official working time with you and chat about the contents of the magazine. "

"Ah?" An Yiyang got up from the sofa, "You mean, I can go to work?"

"Why not?" Li Qi asked inexplicably.

"But I didn't even say goodbye when I got out of the general manager's office just now, and I seemed to offend your general manager quite a bit. How could he want me?"

"I want you, not he wants you!"

"But isn't he your boss?"

"So what? I am more authoritative than him in the magazine industry! Donghuan started out as a novel book, and popular picture books and comics also have certain advantages, but it is still in its infancy when it comes to magazines. Such a big company can really make magazines." There are not many, otherwise you think I can stay after Sunshine Magazine is acquired? Now there are three publications hosted by Donghuan, "Urban Fashion", "Workplace Elite" and "Literary Life". "Workplace Elite" is produced by Sunshine "Urban Life" was adapted from the "Workplace Elite" column in "Urban Life". Because "Urban Life" and Donghuan's "Urban Fashion" are similar in content and market positioning, "Urban Life" was merged into "Urban Fashion", and "Urban Life" was incorporated into "Urban Fashion". "Workplace Elite" has always been the essence of "Urban Life". With the diversification of content and the increase of attractiveness, we have made it a separate magazine, and "Literary Life" is a joint publication.

But in this era when the three magazines of fashion, finance, and literature and art have long been rotten, it is absolutely idiotic to let these three magazines drive the magazine industry in Donghuan. Therefore, "Two-dimensional" is a novel style and the market Magazines with unlimited potential will emerge as the times require.The key to whether Donghuan can start a magazine lies in this magazine, and I am the editor-in-chief of this magazine. Unless they want me to pack up and leave, otherwise I will take whoever I want, and I don’t care about others, but This magazine must be decided by me, unless the boss intends to leave everything to do this, unless he is sure that he can do it well, I don’t worry if no one wants it, and I rush to dig a lot of companies from my past, I can create this magazine wherever I go, and Donghuan will no longer have an advantage in the magazine.

Congratulations, although he is the general manager, but in my eyes, he is just a kid who just left school, so what about Harvard PhD students?In the magazine industry, he is only at the level of a primary school student. When my mother started making magazines, he was still at the age of running around in crotch pants.To say that it is his father who is really qualified to speak, Donghuan's ability to become a giant in the book industry is all due to his father, and he is just sitting back and enjoying the benefits.A large part of the reason why I stayed is that Mr. Gong is a person I respect very much. He trusts me and entrusts me with important tasks. I don't want to live up to his expectations. Moreover, Sunshine Magazine is my half-life effort , the advantages of being acquired by Donghuan actually outweigh the disadvantages. I believe it will have a better future, and I am reluctant to see it ruined in the hands of others.

Having said so much, I just want to let you understand how important "Two-dimensional" is to me. I am eager to make this magazine a good one, but I suffer from the fact that most of the people around me are newbies. My understanding is not comprehensive enough and I am even more unfamiliar with Two-dimensional, so I really need someone to help me, someone who can really help me to help me. When Li Qi said this, he let out a long sigh of relief, "So, are you willing to come back?"Even if the boss of the company is replaced by someone who has a little bit of trouble with you. "

"Yes." An Yiyang said these two words almost without hesitation.

"That's good, I can finally take a breath. Although you and Gongzhu seem to be a little unhappy, but don't worry, as long as I am here, I will never let anyone wear small shoes for you, even if I can't get along one day. If you want to go, I will take you with me."

"Okay, I will go wherever the boss goes." The restless heart was instantly filled with emotion. There are not many people in this world who really treat him well, and Li Qi is one of them.

After going to work in Donghuan, although I didn't look up and look down with Gongzhu, he really didn't attack him at work. An Yiyang worked from dawn to dusk for more than a month, and finally shared the sample issue of "Two-dimensional" with everyone in the magazine team. It was rushed out, and after many times of proofreading and revision, the final order was sent to the printing yard.An Yiyang almost burst into tears when he saw the sample issue. After a day of joy and excitement in the office, everyone just relaxed and fell into an unprecedented tension, because the last step has not been completed, the most critical step-publishing.Sales volume is the key to success. It’s useless if a magazine can’t be sold. It’s hard to wait for the magazine to be released. Almost everyone in the team is in front of the computer to do the same thing: crazy landing in major online bookstores——see sales .

The result was unsatisfactory. It was far from the first release, and it still showed a downward trend from issue to issue. Everyone in the production team instantly became frosted eggplants—withered.

On the second day, there was still not much change. An Yiyang was in a quiet and lifeless editorial department. Li Qi's voice: "Come in." Compared with everyone in the editorial department, Li Qi's voice was much calmer, no different from usual.

When An Yiyang walked in, she was sitting on the swivel chair behind the desk, with her back to him, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, quietly looking at Yun Juan Yun Shu outside the window.An Yiyang's heart was suddenly blocked, and he couldn't help but took a step forward, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I couldn't help you. We...failed."

After a while, Li Qi slowly turned the chair around, stretched out a finger towards him, and shook it left and right: "NO, NO, NO."

"What?" An Yiyang blinked, a little dazed.

"Until the end, you never know the result."

"But……"

"It's still early, isn't it?" Li Qi hooked the corner of his mouth, cut off his words, stood up from the chair, walked around the desk and walked towards him, "Still water runs deep."

"Eh?" An Yiyang was still a little puzzled, why the boss didn't seem to be in a hurry at all despite the poor sales volume, as if he had a chance to win.

"Is there a problem with the content of our magazine?" Li Qi raised his eyebrows and asked.

"No." Joke, every article in this issue of the magazine is carefully selected and used, including the top Chinese best-selling danmei gods. God knows that their editors have tried their best to contact these authors and press the manuscript. Holding a gun to the author's head to force them to hand over the manuscript, after several twists and turns, the manuscript was finally collected.Hard work pays off, and everything you get is a high-quality product, there is no doubt about it!

"Then there is a problem with our design?" Li Qi continued to ask.

"No." Whether it is planning, art, typesetting, or proofreading, there is nothing to choose. This time, everyone strives for perfection and strives for perfection. Each plan has been revised many times before it is finally finalized.

"Then do you think Donghuan Culture's Propaganda Department, Advertising Department, and Marketing Department are freeloaders?"

"Of course not!" Donghuan Culture is one of the few giants in the book industry in China, and no matter which department it is in, it is definitely not set up for people to watch.

"So, what do you think we didn't do well?" Li Qi shrugged.

"..." An Yiyang thought for a while but couldn't answer.

Seeing his ignorant look, Li Qi was not only amused, he stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "Those who achieve great things must be calm, since we have done everything that should be done, we are not afraid that the result will be bad." Where to go, trust me and trust yourself."

"But, but sales..."

"What day of the week is it?"

"Friday."

"Well, it's really a good day, I can get off work, I wish you a happy weekend." Li Qi reached out and touched his head, took the documents on the table and walked out, turned around when he reached the door, "Little friend, you really helped me a lot, thank you!"

An Yiyang stood there in a daze, did he really help her?Why did he feel that he was so busy these days that he was so busy that he forgot to sleep and eat, but it was just a disservice. It was his first time as an associate editor, and he couldn't be happy at all with such a result.No matter what Li Qi thought, in short, he was very depressed. When he got home, he threw himself on the sofa like a dead body.

After a while, An Yiling came back with a big bag and a small bag, and when he saw the people on the sofa, he felt a little helpless: "I'm tired and go back to my room to sleep, so I shouldn't have to work overtime this weekend, right?"

"No, the magazines are all published." An Yiyang buried his head in the pillow and murmured.

"Isn't that great? Finally, I can have a good weekend. Look at you, you are so thin that you are almost out of shape. When you go back, your mother should miss you again."

"Alas..." An Yiyang sighed, still thinking about sales.

"Are you hungry? I'm going to cook, let's go back to the room and sleep for a while! I'll call you." An Yiling changed his shoes at the entrance and walked in. An Yiyang raised his head from the sofa, "Help me drive television."

An Yiling turned on the TV without a word, then turned and walked to the kitchen: "Use the tomatoes for scrambled eggs or make tomato and egg soup?"

"Whatever!" An Yiyang sat up with his hair rubbed into a chicken coop, and followed him, hugging a pillow in his arms. An Yiling looked back at him and blocked him at the door, "Don't make trouble , you don’t come to help when you look like this.”

"Who said I'm here to help? I'm here to guide you in cooking."

"Ha, I need you to guide me?" An Yiling took out the bought vegetables from the bag and rolled up his sleeves as if he had heard a big joke, "Then I would have starved to death long ago. "

"Cut, I'm just too lazy to cook. I cook better than you." An Yiyang stood at the door and snorted coldly, looking at the handsome figure busy with his sleeves rolled up inside, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Has become so mature and reliable?Instead, he became more and more useless.

Four or 10 minutes later, the meal and dishes were ready, and the two brothers huddled together at the dining table to eat together, and the atmosphere was very warm.Suddenly, the chopsticks in An Yiling's hand fell to the ground with a "click": "Damn!"

"Why?" An Yiyang looked at him inexplicably.

"Isn't this Brother Qi?" An Yiling put the iPad on his lap on the table, pointed to a popular Weibo with over [-] retweets, and read along, "President Qi's coming out, thousands of girls are heartbroken! "

As if struck by lightning, An Yiyang hurriedly took the iPad and read the Weibo carefully. Although the Weibo only had such a sentence, it attached a screenshot of the news and a video link. An Yiyang clicked on the link and found that It was Qi Fan. At a recent press conference, the reporter asked if he was secretly married or had a girlfriend in a relationship. When it was inconvenient for Fang to disclose the information of his girlfriend, Qi Fan directly replied, "Sorry, the person I like is a man. Yes, I love him very much, don't ask such questions in the future."

"Damn it, brother Qi is gay? Is there a mistake? It's too scary!" An Yiling wailed.

"Do you think homosexuality is scary?" An Yiyang's hand holding the iPad trembled, thankfully Qi Fan didn't mention himself, otherwise he really didn't know how it would end.

"That's not it! It's just... It's the first time I met him, and he was so close to me. I always feel weird." An Yiling frowned, and suddenly looked straight at him, "I said , the person Brother Qi likes is you, right?"

The younger brother's words were astonishing, and An Yiyang almost jumped up from the stool: "How is that possible! Don't talk nonsense, you will die if your mother hears it!"

"That's right! I don't think Big Brother Qi has such bad eyesight even if he is gay." An Yiling laughed.An Yiyang was still a little restless at first, so he dropped his iPad in an instant, rushed forward and beat him up: "You're looking for death!"

The younger brother covered his head while dodging and leaning forward and backward laughing: "Hahahahahaha - that's all right, all right, don't you still want to be seen by men?"

An Yiyang glared at him, sat back in his chair and continued to eat, ignoring him.

"Hey, do you know who Brother Qi likes?" An Yiling asked curiously.

"I don't know." An Yiyang perfunctory, seeing that he still wanted to ask, he quickly tapped his bowl with his chopsticks, "Pick up the chopsticks quickly, do you still want to eat? The food is getting cold!"

At the same time, Xia Nihong in the Qi family's mansion was furious: "What on earth are you thinking? Can you say such nonsense? Now this matter is spread everywhere on the Internet, how will you clarify it in the future?"

"Clarification? Did I say something wrong?" Qi Fan wrote lightly.

"I'm just trying to persuade you to find a better girl to start a family, and you're so mad at me? Can you discuss it with me before doing something?" Xia Nihong's face was livid.

Qi Fan's tone was no longer polite: "Discussion? Then have you discussed it with me? Why did it turn into a blind date when it was clearly about business? Am I still young? I still can't make up my own mind about marriage?"

"I..." Xia Nihong was momentarily at a loss for words, "I'm doing this for your own good!"

"If you're really doing it for me, don't give me all these moths!" After Qi Fan finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door. Xia Nihong hurriedly said from behind, "Where are you going? You haven't eaten yet. .”

Qi Fan walked out without even looking back, and slammed the door hard.
