Chapter 53: , joke

Chen Xiaomi was confused all the way, not knowing how she returned to the capital?

Fortunately, the matter of "royalties" gave her an excellent excuse to get away.

Editor-in-chief office.

Editor-in-chief Zhou Mingwei asked slowly: "Did 'Harvest' really open a hole for December?"

Chen Xiaomi replied: "I saw it with my own eyes."

Zhou Mingwei was silent for a long time, later comforting her: "This matter can't blame you, even if I went, there would be no way, it's just a pity."

Can it not be a pity?

Like "People's Literature", it belongs to the national literary journal, and "Harvest" magazine, which holds the bull's ear in the south, is willing to bet so heavily, then what is the quality of the novel "To Live"?

Even a fool can understand!

Zhou Mingwei pinched his fountain pen and asked curiously: "I heard this 'December' is your fellow townsman, what does he look like, how old is he this year?"

Although he is a fellow townsman, that bastard doesn't take this seriously at all. I thought about playing the fellow townsman affection card before.

As a result, I turned into a joke.

Not knowing what kind of heart it was, Chen Xiaomi shook her head: "He instructed me to keep it secret."

Zhou Mingwei asked keenly: "Do you know him?"

Chen Xiaomi nodded.

Seeing this, Zhou Mingwei felt even more regretful, "Hey, if it weren't for the 'royalty' thing, with your relationship, no matter what, 'To Live' wouldn't have fallen to other magazine offices."

Chen Xiaomi was silent, didn't make a sound.

Only she understands that unless Zijin is asked to help resolve this grievance, she and Li Heng will never be able to pee in the same pot.

Then will she ask Zijin for help?

The answer is of course not.

Because she can't put down this face, because her pride doesn't allow it.

Even if Li Heng is different from the past and soars into the sky, as a Chen family woman, she will not bend her knees to please him.

Seeing her always depressed, Zhou Mingwei mistakenly thought she was sad, so he said in a kind tone:

"Go, go rest for a while. Remember to contact December more in the future, maybe one day there will be a chance for cooperation."

Chen Xiaomi responded "Okay" perfunctorily and left.

Seeing her come out of the office, Zhou Chunlan immediately stepped forward and asked pretentiously:

"Xiaomi, you're back, heard 'To Live' wasn't taken down? Then isn't it a joy in vain?"

Hearing this, Chen Xiaomi really wanted to slap her, but there were so many people in the office watching, so she finally endured it.

She sighed and said: "'To Live' is written too well, 'Harvest' magazine opened royalty terms for this, I am powerless."

Sister Liao on the side asked in surprise: "What royalty terms? Wouldn't it be paying money according to the proportion of copies?"

Chen Xiaomi nodded: "That's it."

Hearing this, the whole editorial department was stunned! Including Dai Shu, who had the most seniority.

Dai Shu had seen a lot of the world, wiped his reading glasses, and sighed: "If it's really like this, the sky will change. No wonder Xiao Chen returned without success, this is useless no matter who goes."

Chen Xiaomi looked at Dai Shu gratefully.

Shanghai, "Harvest" magazine office.

"Editor-in-chief, this is the sample issue for February, please take a look."

"Harvest" magazine is a bimonthly magazine, a reviewer took the sample issue to be published this month to ask the leader to confirm.

Editor-in-chief Liao took the sample issue and flipped through it casually, later putting it aside and saying: "There is still some time before the issuance date, wait a bit."

The reviewer was confused, still waiting? Didn't it use to be finalized in these two days?

Editor-in-chief Liao saw the subordinate's doubt and explained slightly: "Editor Zou signed a new manuscript, the teacher is very optimistic, you come again tomorrow afternoon."

Whose manuscript, worth Mr. Ba's personal recommendation? The reviewer was even more confused.

There are three periods in evening self-study.

The first and second periods are math, but Teacher Pan usually just turns around in the classroom and sits on the podium, letting the students below read books and do problems themselves.

He doesn't care if you are reviewing math or other subjects, as long as you are learning.

Maybe because many students in Class 204 expressed dissatisfaction with his teaching method, the math teacher rarely takes the initiative to communicate with students, unless a student encounters a problem they don't know and raises their hand to ask him, then he leaves his seat.

He is very patient, no matter how difficult the problem is, if the student doesn't understand, he will teach repeatedly, teach in different ways, the tone is not slow, can accompany you for a whole period, until you understand.

It is precisely because of this that Teacher Pan is still quite popular with girls now.

However, boys generally don't ask him questions. If they really don't understand, they mostly ask Liu Yejiang, Zou Aiming, and Liu Li. If these three have no way, they finally ask Li Heng.

Seems like a ladder...

They don't disturb him unless it's difficult to a certain extent, just afraid that Li Heng will solve it in a few clicks, they will feel embarrassed, worrying about their self-confidence being damaged.

Evening self-study ended, the math teacher hadn't left yet, still discussing a parabola problem with Chen Lijun.

While teaching, Teacher Pan suddenly turned to Li Heng: "Li Heng, you look at this problem."

Zhang Zhiyong just bought a bag of tofu spicy skin to corrode him, Li Heng bit half a spicy skin in his mouth, and his right hand took the draft book and glanced at it.

Thinking in his heart: Should I pretend not to know, to save face for others?

Or write out the problem-solving steps?

The math teacher might have seen his thoughts, smiled gently and said: "Write out your problem-solving method, let's see where it is different from our thinking?"

Teacher Pan was also helpless, no matter how he taught Chen Lijun, she couldn't learn it. Now he was a bit suspicious that his problem-solving skills were too complicated?

Hearing this, Li Heng didn't be polite anymore, made two auxiliary lines, and solved the problem in a few clicks.

Teacher Pan took it and analyzed it carefully, then handed it to Chen Lijun: "This method is simpler than mine, you look at it."

Chen Lijun took the book and reasoned twice, blushing and saying: "Teacher, I seem to understand it all at once."

There it is, as soon as this sentence came out, many students nearby laughed out loud.

Damn it!

The teacher taught for half a period and couldn't teach her, but looking at Li Heng's problem-solving thinking twice, she immediately understood. This is not nakedly slapping the face...

Fortunately, Teacher Pan was slapped a lot, and was used to it, not caring at all, picked up the book and left the classroom with a smile.

After the teacher left, Sun Manning directly asked Chen Lijun, "Why don't you ask Li Heng directly for this problem?"

Chen Lijun held her head and thought blankly, narrowing her eyes and answering: "Before in the second year of high school, I asked him a question, and he finished reciting the problem-solving steps in less than a minute.

At that time, my brain couldn't keep up, but I was embarrassed to look too stupid. He asked me if I understood, and I nodded and said I understood, and I never dared to ask him questions again."

Everyone was amused by Chen Lijun's naturally stupid and cute temperament. Fortunately, she wasn't really stupid. Except for math not being particularly outstanding, other subjects were quite okay.

PS: The neighbor's dog is too noisy, what to do?
