1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 329 Double Editors

Returning to Xi'an again, the car parked in the courtyard of the Provincial Cultural Association.

Lin Weimin carried Shi Tiesheng down, said a few words to Lu Yao, an old acquaintance, and then sent him back to the guest house. His energy was low, and he needed to rest for most of the journey.

The next day, Lin Weimin pushed Shi Tiesheng to Northwest University again. Today, the two of them came to see Cheng Ximi to say goodbye.

"Weimin specially asked for a week's leave for my business. He is a busy person in the editorial department, so he can't leave for too long!"

The reason Shi Tiesheng explained to Cheng Ximi made Lin Weimin very upset. What is "I am a busy person", it seems that if it is not because of me, you can stay.

You boy, you are not kind!
Cheng Ximi sent the two of them to the train station. When they entered the platform, Lin Weimin carried Shi Tiesheng on his back, and Cheng Ximi handed him things.

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

His sudden sound made Cheng Ximi's face blush up to his ears, and he quickly glanced at Shi Tiesheng without saying a word.

Lin Weimin looked at these two people, feeling a little helpless, no wonder you two have been able to talk about a platonic love for ten years.

When we came to the platform, it was only a few minutes before the train departed.

Lin Weimin secretly handed a box to Shi Tiesheng's hand, and said in a low voice: "I didn't say you, it's hard to come here, some things you need to be brave. When can you marry a wife if you are so sticky? "

Shi Tiesheng opened the box and found a beautiful lady's watch. He asked in surprise, "When did you buy it?"

"You don't care when I bought it. The opportunity is given to you, take it yourself!"

Ms. Lin once again performed the "Send a Biao Dafa".

Last time, Wang Shuo's grandson was considered a loser, but this time it was very high and low.

He believed that Tiesheng was different from Wang Shuo, and he would never disappoint Teacher Lin's high expectations.

Lin Weimin pushed Shi Tiesheng close to Cheng Ximi.

Shi Tiesheng sat in a wheelchair, looked up at Cheng Ximi, held the watch box in his hand, and stammered: "Xi... Ximi, I bought you something!"

There was a bit of surprise in Cheng Ximi's eyes, until Shi Tiesheng opened the watch box, revealing a beautiful female watch with Oriental Twin Lions, a bit of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Her surprise was not because it was a watch, but because of what the watch represented.

Cheng Ximi thought for a while, and took out the pen he carried with him.

"My pen is worthless!" Cheng Ximi hesitated.

However, Shi Tiesheng took this fountain pen as a treasure, and said that he would use this fountain pen to create more good works.

Those who lick dogs like that can no longer lick dogs, Teacher Lin is deeply ashamed.

Parting is always when love is strong.

In fact, it is more appropriate to say this in reverse, and the train starts slowly.

Shi Tiesheng was still looking at the platform, waving his hands.

On the platform, Cheng Ximi was also waving, and she had an extra watch on her hand.

After being depressed for a while, Shi Tiesheng finally recovered, thinking of the watch he gave away, "When did you buy that watch?"

"While you two are out fooling around!"

Shi Tiesheng was already immune to Lin Weimin's nonsense, "How much?"

"It's not much money, so it's just a gift for you two."

Shi Tiesheng said: "Then am I at a loss?"

"You black-hearted thing!"

After joking a few words, Shi Tiesheng's mood finally completely lifted.

The train was running wildly on the plain. In winter, the north wind was blowing outside the window. Just listening to the sound made one feel chills.

The carriage was silent, and Shi Tiesheng was lying on the berth writing something.

He had just parted with Cheng Ximi for an hour or two, and he couldn't help expressing his thoughts with the pen that symbolized love.

And Lin Weimin was lying on the sleeper with his hands on the pillow and his legs crossed.

This trip to Shaanxi can be regarded as a complete success.

Back in Yanjing, he put on his own crown and sent Shi Tiesheng home. Father Shi was worried for a week, but he finally felt relieved when he saw his son come back fully bearded.

After taking a bite of noodles at Shi's house, Lin Weimin returned to the Tuanjiehu apartment and had a good night's sleep.

Early the next morning, Crown, who had disappeared for a week, reappeared in the Guowen Society.

As soon as I got out of the car, I bumped into the enthusiastic smiling faces of my colleagues.

"Congratulations, for the people!"

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

Lin Weimin was at a loss, what's going on?
"Congratulations on what?"

Cheng Zaochun pulled Lin Weimin aside, and said in a low voice, "You've been on a business trip for the past two days, so you might not know it. Just after New Year's Day, a red document has been placed on it, and any overage personnel who have retired are not allowed to be editor-in-chief."

"Retired overage personnel? That's not..."

Cheng Zaochun nodded, "That's right. In our agency, only Lao Niu and Lao Tan are eligible."

"Then how to deal with it?"

Cheng Zaochun continued: "Lao Tan and Lao Niu are both the banner bearers of "Contemporary" and "New Historical Materials of Literature". Your "Contemporary" is better because you are here. But "New Historical Materials of Literature" is not good, and none of them can do anything. Comrade. I made a suggestion to the agency..."

When he said this, he paused on purpose, playing tricks.

"You're boring, don't tell me I'm leaving."

"Hey, don't go." Cheng Zaochun hurriedly grabbed Lin Weimin, and then said, "I told the agency that we can have a double editor-in-chief!"

This method... is really unconstrained!
"The society agrees?"

"Agreed." Cheng Zaochun had a smug face, and then said, "So, you have to thank me!"

"What do I thank you for?"

"Lao Tan, the original editor-in-chief of "Contemporary", stayed, and you became the editor-in-chief too."

Lin Weimin had already guessed this decision in his heart. He was originally the deputy editor-in-chief. If there were to be two editor-in-chiefs, unless he was transferred outside, he could only be chosen.

But if it is really transferred outside, it will cause redundant personnel. After all, there are two editor-in-chiefs, and there are also deputy editor-in-chiefs.

"Thank you then!" Lin Weimin said perfunctorily.

Cheng Zaochun felt this perfunctory, "You boy, you are not sincere!"

Lin Weimin handed him a cigarette and lit it, "Is it okay this time?"

Cheng Zaochun took a puff happily, "Did I send you this puff?"

The two were smoking, when Lin Weimin saw a pair of murderous eyes, he was terrified, and the smoke almost scared him away.

"Morning leader!"

"You still have the face to come back?" Meng Weizai looked at Lin Weimin with a gloomy face.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Cheng Zaochun decisively slipped away.

Lin Weimin looked at his back and shook his head in his heart, Lao Cheng is unreliable, he was the first one to run away when something happened.

He laughed and said: "Leader, look at what you said. If I don't go back to the club, where will I go? This is my second home, and it's a career I will fight for my whole life!"

Speaking of shamelessness, Lin Weimin dared to call the Guowen Society the second, and no one dared to call it the first.

Hearing such a nasty flattery, Meng Weizai was so full of anger that he didn't know how to vent it.

He mocked: "What's the matter? Are you done with the matchmaking?"

Lin Weimin slapped his thigh, "Hi! You don't know how difficult it is for me to go out this time!"

When he was talking, he quietly observed Meng Weizai's expression, Meng Weizai's expression was a bit inquiring when he heard his words.

"It's not easy! It's really not easy!"

Lin Weimin shook his head and kept patting his thighs. If someone saw the expression on his face, he would think that he had been to Shaanxi not for seven days, but for seven years.

Comrade Lao Meng couldn't hold back after all, and asked, "What's so difficult? What's going on?"

Lin Weimin then said: "I'm not saying I'm not easy, it's Tiesheng, Shi Tiesheng, do you remember?"

"Shi Tiesheng, of course I know."

"Tie Sheng is over 30, you know that?"

"I know."

"An old bachelor, in his 30s, do you think it's easy?"

"not easy!"

"I finally got to know a pen pal. We have been communicating with each other for several years, but we dare not even meet him face to face. You know, his leg..." Lin Weimin patted his leg again.

Meng Weizai had a bit of sympathy on his face, "It's a pity for Tiesheng!"

He then asked again: "So, you went to be a matchmaker for Tie Sheng?"

"Isn't it? You don't know, Tiesheng has corresponded with that girl for five years. Five years, five full years, do you know how he lived these five years?
I said you can't do this. If the girl can communicate with you for five years, it must prove that she is interested in you.You can afford it, can other girls afford it?

Just like that, I took him to Shaanxi to meet the girl. "

Lin Weimin stopped here.

When Meng Weizai heard the critical moment, he hurriedly asked: "And then?"

"And then, it's done. You don't even know how much I tried to match them! Hey, hey!"

Lin Weimin had an expression on his face that I suffered a great crime for country D and made great contributions.

Meng Weizai nodded in satisfaction, "It's good, it's good!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but patted Lin Weimin on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work this trip, and you have helped Comrade Tie Sheng so much."

"Look at what you said, the leader. Isn't this what it should be? Tiesheng is the author I brought in. His life is guaranteed, and he writes more good works. It is our editorial department and the publication that benefit."

Meng Weizai nodded and said: "Not bad, not bad, it's good to have this awareness!"

"Leader, I heard that Old Tan..." Seeing Meng Weizai feeling happy, Lin Weimin took the opportunity to ask.

"You all know?"

Lin Weimin nodded.

"It's also a matter of no choice. The higher-ups have issued a document and imposed strict regulations. Fortunately, early spring came up with an idea and proposed to set up a dual editor-in-chief. Originally, Lao Tan didn't want to do it anymore.

If you think about it, all the documents above have been downloaded. If he continues to work in the editorial department, Gutian Li will be dismissed. People will think that he is in love with power and position and does not want to give way to young people.

It was Lao Yan who persuaded him, saying that you had to stay and put the young man on the horse, so he had to send him off anyway!

He just agreed. "

Lin Weimin nodded, finally figured out the ins and outs.

At this time, Meng Weizai said angrily again: Tell me about you, just when you were mentioned as the editor-in-chief here, you made a fuss, let me say something about you? "

Lin Weimin bowed his head hurriedly to admit his mistake, "Yes, yes, I was wrong this time. I really didn't expect such a big change in just a few days."

Seeing Lin Weimin's good attitude of admitting his mistakes, Meng Weizai's tone softened, "Forget it, there is a reason for missing you this time, pay attention next time."

"Yes, yes, be careful!"

Meng Weizai warned again: "The official confession document will come down next week, be more honest these few days!"

"Yes, yes, you must keep a low profile!"

Immediately to mention the editor-in-chief, Lin Weimin immediately matured a lot.

Meng Weizai knew that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change, so he sighed helplessly.

He remembered one more thing and said, "By the way, you can go to the Institute of Literature when you have time."

"Why do you go to the literary research institute?"
