The Godfather of Business Reborn
059 Reconciliation
Just when Zhao Tian was about to walk out of the house, he suddenly saw the door of Luo Lei's office being opened from the outside with a creak. Then he saw an old man who was about 50 years old and wearing a gray tunic suit walking in. house.
"Young man, don't be impatient for a moment. If you have anything to do, can we sit down and talk about it?"
After Zhao Tian heard what the old man said, he saw that although the old man had a smile on his face, his eyes were shining towards him. He frowned and asked
"I wonder who you are, grandpa?"
"Oh, me? I am Liu Aiguo, the editor-in-chief of Moya Magazine. I originally sent Editor Zhou to handle the matter this time. But then I thought about it, this matter is of great importance to me, Moya Magazine, and Editor Zhou is young I have little knowledge and am usually arrogant about my talents. Although Editor-in-Chief Luo of Chunfeng Literature and Art was there to help me, there were inevitably some oversights, so I flew to Shenyang myself. I didn’t expect that I would catch up with this incident as soon as I got here. , to say the least, I am truly lucky, old man.”[
After Zhao Tian heard what the old man said, he couldn't help but look at the old man up and down for a while, then smiled slightly and said
"It turns out that this is Mr. Taishan Beidou Liu Aiguo, who is well-known in Chinese literary circles. The younger generation has heard of your name for a long time. I have also seen some of the articles you have published in my grandfather's study. Regarding Mr. Liu, During the Cultural Revolution, younger generations admired his integrity for having the courage to stand up to those in power."
After hearing what Zhao Tian said, Mr. Liu couldn't help but smile, looked Zhao Tian up and down, laughed, and said
"The boy is very good at talking. Although he looks only 9 years old, old man, when I look at your experience and words and deeds, I can't see anything childish at all. Well, not bad, not bad. With your current reputation and your own Being mature and steady, the future prospects must be limitless."
After hearing what Mr. Liu said, the coldness on Zhao Tian's face eased slightly, then he laughed, cupped his hands towards Mr. Liu, and said
"Lao Miao Liu praised me, I am so ashamed."
Liu Li and Luo Lei on the side couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when they saw Mr. Liu arriving in time and the coldness on Zhao Tian's face was slightly relieved. Then they saw Liu Li hurriedly stood up and came to Zhao Tian's side. , stretched out his hand to hold Zhao Tian’s left arm, and said to Mr. Liu with a stiff smile on his face.
"Mr. Liu, you and Xiaotian don't stand and talk. Let's sit down and talk."
After the words fell, Liu Li turned to look at Zhao Tian beside her, pulled Zhao Tian's sleeves with a hint of begging on her face, and said to Zhao Tian
"Xiaotian, do you think we can sit down first and then talk about other things?"
Zhao Tian couldn't help but feel soft in his heart when he saw the heartbreaking look on Liu Li's face and the hint of begging in her eyes. He snorted coldly and stopped saying anything to Liu Li. Instead, he He turned around and smiled at Mr. Liu, stretched out his hand and said to Mr. Liu with a smile.
"Since the master is so kind, Mr. Liu, how about we just sit down and chat?"
Liu Lao naturally saw everyone's facial expressions in his eyes. When he saw Zhao Tian's actions, he didn't say anything at the moment. He smiled slightly, nodded, and said
"Since the owner has good intentions, it is natural for us as guests to refute the owner's good intentions."
After saying that, he walked to the position Zhao Tian had occupied before and sat down slowly.
Seeing this, Liu Li hurriedly pulled Zhao Tian to sit next to her.
When Luo Lei saw the two of them sitting down, he turned around and stood aside to accompany them. Only Zhou Qing blushed and turned pale, standing behind Luo Lei.
Seeing that everything had been done again, Liu Li hurriedly got up and put new tea leaves for several people, and then sat down closely next to Zhao Tian, fearing that Zhao Tian had misunderstood something.
When Zhao Tian saw Liu Li acting like this, half of the anger that came from nowhere in his heart immediately dissipated.[
At this moment, Mr. Liu across from him put down his teacup and said to Zhao Tian with a smile on his face.
"Boy, the old man said a few words, I wonder if I can listen to him?"
After hearing what Mr. Liu said, Zhao Tian couldn't help but be slightly startled. Then he nodded like Mr. Liu and said with a smile.
"What did Mr. Liu say? With Mr. Liu's age, I'm afraid he is about the same age as my grandfather. Respecting the elderly and loving the young is my traditional Chinese virtue. In this way, even if Mr. Liu does something difficult for others, the boy will naturally do it.
I will reluctantly agree."
After hearing what Zhao Tian said, Mr. Liu couldn't help laughing and said
"You cunning boy, you really have too many ideas. Do you think it is impossible for the old man to rely on his old man to sell his strength? Don't worry, the old man can only convince people with reason. If you think what the old man says is reasonable, then listen to the old man's words. If you think the old man is right, then you can
It doesn’t make sense anymore, as long as you can tell the truth, the old man won’t say anything. Boy, do you think this is okay?”
After hearing what Mr. Liu said, Zhao Tian couldn't help but smile, nodded towards Mr. Liu, and said
"Old Liu's words are harsh, and I feel ashamed. If Old Liu wants to say anything, just say so. I will definitely do what Old Liu wants."
Seeing Zhao Tian's attitude, Mr. Liu nodded with satisfaction, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then raised his head and said to Zhao Tian with a smile.
"Boy, although the old man doesn't know the reason for what happened just now, he does know something about it. Speaking of it, our editor Zhou Qing is indeed at fault, and editor Luo is indeed somewhat selfish, but their people are really honest.
Not bad. Besides, boy, you were a little impulsive just now. How could you lose such a big temper over such a trivial matter? If in the end the agreement between you and Chunfeng Literature and Art was really broken because of such a trivial matter, think about it.
It's not a good thing for you or Mr. Luo."
After hearing what Mr. Liu said, Zhao Tian couldn't help but frowned again. He looked up at Mr. Liu who was still smiling opposite him, and said to Mr. Liu solemnly.
"Mr. Liu, I admire your character and temperament. Ever since I met Mr. Liu, I think I have treated you with courtesy, without any rudeness. Logically speaking, I, Zhao Tian, should fulfill Mr. Liu's request."
Without saying a word, I immediately implemented it, but this was the only thing that made me a little embarrassed. I was dissatisfied with Mr. Liu and said, "I was indeed a little impulsive just now, but what I'm angry about is not Zhou Qing's playboy, or Chief Editor Luo's selfishness. I'm really angry."
I'm angry because Zhou Qing and Mr. Luo are in power. The reason why today's matter has developed to this point is because my reputation and my own demand for the publishing house are not very high, and the publishing house has no need for me, Zhao Tian.
There is indeed a huge demand for the work, which is why it has evolved into this embarrassing situation. But if I don’t have these favorable conditions and am just an ordinary author, what will happen? I’m afraid the final result will be
Like Zhou Qing said, he would be banned jointly by Mr. Luo and your magazine. Mr. Luo's Chunfeng Literature and Sprout Magazine, two giants in the Chinese literary world, would probably be banned if they banned a small author at the same time.
The final outcome of this young author was not that he was forced to change his career, but that he could only develop after leaving the mainland.
Although I, Zhao Tian, am not talented and I don’t think I have any great ambitions, I have a principle in my heart, which is contempt and disdain for those in power who seek personal gain with power. Although I, Zhao Tian, do not have much ability, I do not have any great ambitions.
To be with such people, if those government officials who are corrupt and oppress the people are the worms in China or the people, then to be disrespectful, literary giants like Zhou Qing and Editor-in-Chief Luo are probably me
There are blood-sucking worms in the Chinese literary world. It is precisely because there are many such people in the Chinese literary world that our Chinese literary world is bullied by foreigners. Why is the Nobel Prize for Literature such a world-class award, and our Chinese nation has a 5,000-year-old historical civilization?
The country has never had even a trophy in it? I guess many so-called literary experts or professors will be very disdainful to say that it is because of the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, or some people may say, because of my greatness in China.
Culture, those foreign barbarians cannot understand it. Is the truth of the matter really like this? In my opinion, I’m afraid it’s not the case.”
At the end of the sentence, Zhao Tian squinted at Zhou Qing, whose face was livid, and Luo Lei, whose face was also changing. Then he sneered and spoke again.
"Also, Mr. Liu, to tell you the truth, I have another idea to develop a new form of literature. Originally, because of the contract with Chunfeng Literature and Art, and because this idea has not yet matured in my mind,
So I haven't made up my mind on how to do it, but now I'm fine. Unexpectedly, Mr. Luo's actions made me determined. Now I really want to see my new literary form.
Can it withstand Mr. Luo's ban?"
At the end of his speech, Zhao Tian snorted again, then lowered his head and slowly tasted the tea in his hand.
After hearing what Zhao Tian said, Mr. Liu looked a little stunned. After a long time, he sighed, with a look of silence on his face, and said
"Boy, although I really don't want to admit what you said, old man, but if you think about it carefully, what you said may not be unreasonable. With the development of society, there are indeed many people in our country whose thoughts can no longer keep up with the pace of social development.
Their thoughts are still stuck in the past, but their status has determined that every word and every word and deed they say will form a constraint on every move of this country that has just begun to take off. This is the tragedy of this country, and even more
What's more, there are many talented and virtuous people who hold high positions and control a party simply because of the people's ideological traditions in this country, or because of various means that cannot be disclosed. These factors have indeed hindered the development of this country's literary world, and this continues for a long time.
, there are indeed many dangers in this country’s literary world.
Regarding these, old man, I don’t have any good ideas to change the current situation of the Chinese literary world. But judging from your confident look, I guess you are very confident in the new literary method you just mentioned. In this case, old man is right.
The literary method you mentioned is very interesting."
Having said this, Mr. Liu laughed. After laughing, he turned to look at Luo Lei beside him, sighed, and said
"But based on my understanding of Mr. Luo, although Chief Editor Luo is somewhat selfish this time, he is not someone who seeks personal gain with power. Chief Editor Luo Lei has a very upright character and spares no effort in the development of the Chinese literary world. As far as I know
, although there are cases of bullying authors in many places in the literary world nowadays, this has not happened in Chief Editor Luo’s Spring Breeze Literature. From this, we can know Mr. Luo’s temperament. Besides, you guys and Chief Editor Luo Lei
We've been together for a long time, don't you know Mr. Luo well enough?"
When Zhao Tian heard what Mr. Liu said, he couldn't help but look stunned. Then he thought carefully about what happened in the past few days since he and Luo Lei met. He secretly acknowledged what Mr. Liu said in his heart, and the expression on his face softened slightly.[
Luo Lei heard Mr. Liu say good things for him, and Zhao Tian's expression improved slightly. He couldn't help but glance at Mr. Liu with gratitude, and then said to Zhao Tian with a wry smile.
"Xiaotian, although I don't know why you were so angry just now, but to be honest, I do have some selfish motives in this matter. Originally, because of the kinship between me and Zhou Qing, I wanted you and Zhou Qing to reach an agreement.
, serialize your new book "Kunlun" on Moya. This will also increase this guy's qualifications in Moya magazine and the literary world. But I didn't expect this guy to be so rebellious, and he is obviously someone who relies on the author to make a living.
, it is true that you look down on your parents who provide food and clothing so much, and Xiaotian, you don’t know why you went against the norm, which led to the current situation. So in the final analysis, the fault lies with me, Luo Lei, and I don’t ask for your forgiveness, Xiaotian. It’s just
I hope you can give Chunfeng Literature and Art a chance and continue to cooperate with Chunfeng Literature and Art. In the future, I will hand over all your affairs to Liu Li. From today on, Liu Li will be your exclusive editor, specifically responsible for your affairs, and I will
Luo Lei only steps in to solve the problem when Liu Li can't handle it. I wonder how Xiaotian feels about my proposal?"
After hearing what Luo Lei said, Zhao Tian couldn't help but look at Liu Li next to him with a guilty conscience, then shaved his head and thought for a while, sighed, and said to Luo Lei
"Uncle Luo, I'm sorry. I did get a little impulsive because of some things. Just now Mr. Liu mentioned it, and I thought about it. I still believe in Uncle Luo's character. The reason why I didn't open my mouth to reconcile is because the discussion was based on
For whatever reason, the problem between Uncle Luo and I has arisen. It is difficult to reconcile the old relationship. It is basically impossible to restore the relationship as before. Now that Uncle Luo has proposed this method to solve the problem between you and me.
It would be too shameful for me, Zhao Tian, to give up on the conflict before it gets better. I just hope that if Uncle Luo needs help with anything in the future, Uncle Luo can help him without letting go of his past grudges. Xiaotian will be like this in the future.
Treat Uncle Luo as you would treat your own uncle."
