a winter fire

30

I'm floating.

The moment I got Zhou Hanzhang's new book, I already felt like an official employee of this company.

Very expansive.

I said to the group leader: "Group leader, do you want to read Teacher Zhou's new book?"

The team leader stared at me for a few seconds: "You got it?"

"Hmm." I'm really too bloated. If human beings have tails, my tails would be up to the sky right now.

I handed the notebook to the team leader: "This is the manuscript."

On the way back to the company, I had roughly scanned the content of this book. It was written about a child in the mountains yearning for the outside world day and night, and then secretly hid in a truck carrying goods, and finally came out of the mountain. , his world was turned upside down once again.

Because of time constraints, I just glanced at it roughly, and turned to the ending where I saw the child at the end, and I sighed directly on the bus and turned into a wilted eggplant.

Zhou Hanzhang's books always have a strong sense of fate, the more the characters in the book pursue, the less they can get, and they often reach the state of being within reach, but in the next second there will be earth-shattering changes, making people People are in pain.

When the team leader took the notebook, I stood aside and gave him a brief introduction to the story, but I was still debating whether to tell the team leader that this book was written by Zhou Hanzhang two years ago, not his real book. "New product".

My parents taught me to be honest since I was a child, but in the face of interests, I hesitated.

Just when I was hesitating, the team leader raised his head and asked me, "How did you do it?"

"what?"

"I heard that several big publishing houses are also fighting for his copyright, and the conditions are better than ours. How did you do it?"

I really don't know what conditions other people opened, but I seem to have really won this round.

But it is not necessarily a win, in fact I did not get the manuscript of "Yong Lane".

I hesitated for a moment, and said with a guilty conscience: "Probably... probably my personality charm moved Mr. Zhou."

"Charisma?"

"Charisma."

Obviously, the team leader doesn't think I have any charisma.

"Team leader, is this book okay?"

"Well," he handed the notebook back to me, "Mr. Zhou is used to writing manuscripts. You type the manuscript first and send it to me. We need to do a review and evaluation, but since it's Zhou Hanzhang, it should be fine."

I nodded.

"Team leader, that..." I held my notebook and asked, "When the time comes, I will be responsible for editing Teacher Zhou's book, right?"

The team leader looked at me and replied after a few seconds, "We'll talk about it later."

What he said made me a little worried, but it's not easy to ask more questions at this time, after all, I haven't become a regular yet.

I returned to my work station in despair, ready to start working.

During this period of time, I seldom worked in the company, and I didn’t turn on the computer much. On the day I got Zhou Hanzhang’s manuscript, I took the initiative to work overtime until after twelve o’clock in the evening, and finally I couldn’t bear it anymore before going home.

Zhou Hanzhang is really not tired of the 10,000+ word manuscript. I feel dizzy when typing.

After typing up the manuscript, I handed it over to the team leader, who arranged for me to contact Zhou Hanzhang to sign the contract.

Sometimes I don't know whether I am too naive or the society is too "real". When I asked the team leader again about my regularization, his answer to me was: "I have to apply to the personnel."

As for the editor-in-charge question, he didn't answer me at all.

Of course, I can understand the matter of being responsible for the editor. I am a probationary employee and I have no experience. I will definitely feel uneasy about entrusting Zhou Hanzhang with a work of a writer of this weight, but I always have the feeling of making a wedding dress for someone else. It's really not the taste.

I walked out of the office building in disgrace, it was already dark, and I remembered what my marketing sister said to me before, she said that being an editor requires a strong spirit of altruism.

But this kind of "altruism" benefits the author, not other editors...

Maybe I'm narrow-minded, but I'm really uncomfortable.

I have been quite tired these few days, and my mood is not very good. I am so sad that I doubt my life. I planned to go home and sleep directly, but I got on the car to Zhou Hanzhang's house in a daze.

It was only when I got off the bus that I realized that I was already standing at the foot of the mountain. The sky was dark and the road was dark. I should wait for the next bus and go home, but in the end I went up the mountain on the snow against the wind.

I rarely come here at night. Although there are no wild animals on his hill, what if there are ghosts?

The more I walked, the more scared I became, and finally I ran. When I reached the door of Zhou Hanzhang's house, I was already covered in sweat, and frantically began to dig the door.

Fortunately, Zhou Hanzhang came to open the door soon.

He looked like he was still awake, I really doubt when he woke up.

The sloppy uncle stood there looking at me with a cigarette in his mouth, he seemed a little surprised, and asked, "What else are you doing here?"

I was panting so badly, I leaned against his door frame and said to him, "I don't know, I just came here in a daze."

Zhou Hanzhang stared at me for a while, then suddenly raised his hand and pulled my hair.

How should that feeling be described?

Just ...

Unspeakable warmth.

At that moment, I actually felt a little sweet, maybe I was possessed by a ghost.
