break out of the ice

Chapter 80 Chapter [-]
After dinner, they went back to the magazine office. Their magazine office had just achieved some sales, and they also gained some customer loyalty due to the serialization of Shi Chunhua's novels, but even if it was Chinese New Year, they did not dare to rest.

The most taboo thing about running a magazine is to suspend its publications. A magazine with regular readers that has been published for many years may have a large decline in sales due to suspension of publications.

What's more, for a seedling like "Heart Fire", the suspension of the publication may lead to the worst result - premature death.

Their biggest problem now is not distribution, but the difficulty of getting manuscripts.

Last month, the difficulty in obtaining manuscripts was not that there were few manuscripts, but that the manuscripts were not precise enough. Now their "Heart Fire" magazine has only one reliable and stable author, Shi Chunhua.

Many readers now come for Shi Chunhua's serialized novels, and it also attracts many young people who want to try literary creation to contribute to them.

This month, not to mention the quality of the manuscripts, even the number of submissions has dropped sharply.

It turned out that many of the young people who contributed to them were college students. These college students who don't need to worry about life and only want to be romantic, have returned home after the winter vacation, so they don't have the heart to contribute to them.

Mo Wenjun was sorting out the manuscripts, sighing, now they are still short of five manuscripts for the new issue, and they don't know where to get these five manuscripts.

Qi Kun was fiddling with his camera, trying to develop the photos of Liu Guodong's wedding today, and send them back to the sales office, so that Xiao Hei and his transportation team could take them back to Liu Guodong.

Seeing that Mo Wenjun frowned, he asked, "Do you want to post some photos?"

"There are a lot of photos, so I'll go through these submissions again." Mo Wenjun said, and took out a large cardboard box from the side of the table, and took out a large stack of manuscripts to look at.

Qi Kun also put down his camera and read the manuscript with Mo Wenjun. Although he is a photographer, he still has the basic ability to appreciate manuscripts after working in the magazine for so many years.

Just looking at it, I heard someone knock on the door, looked up and saw Peng Xinyue leaning against the door with a smile, wearing a light yellow long padded jacket, carrying a big bag in her hand.

Qi Kun stood up consciously, still fiddled with his camera, and gave his place to Peng Xinyue.

Peng Xinyue was also polite, sat down, took out something, and said, "I knew you were still working overtime, so you brought mutton soup."

He called Qi Kun again: "Put down the camera first, come and eat."

"It's nice to eat a bowl of mutton soup in such a cold day." Although Mo Wenjun said that the mutton soup is good, he didn't go straight for the mutton soup. He stepped forward to touch Peng Xinyue's hand and said, "Is it cold?"

Although it was warm to the touch, he poured a cup of boiling water for Peng Xinyue and pushed it in front of him: "Hurry up and warm your hands."

When Mo Wenjun first pursued Peng Xinyue, she actually didn't feel it. Since ancient times, literati have been affectionate. Although Mo Wenjun cannot be called a pure literati, he can still be called a half literati.

In Peng Xinyue's vision of herself, she never thought of living with a literati in the future.

Moreover, the impression Mo Wenjun left on her was too bad, with a greasy tone and a villainous personality. After meeting him for the first time, she labeled Mo Wenjun as an oily thing.

Later, Mo Wenjun pursued sincerity, and she was not too young, so she thought about trying to be together first.

The real feeling for Mo Wenjun is that Mo Wenjun chose to run his own magazine for her to leave "Popular Friends".

At that time, "Popular Friends" was already a well-known magazine in ZZ City, and Mo Wenjun was also highly valued in the magazine, so he chose to leave and start his own magazine because of a word she had inadvertently said.

In fact, she is not a person who hates the poor and loves the rich, and she is not particularly vain among girls. She is the sales chief of Zhengxin Electric Cable, and her income is higher than that of most girls. She can't spend it at all. man's money.

It's just that when the two of them were talking, she said, "There is a house of gold in the book, and I haven't seen how much gold you, who have anything to do with books, have."

He remembered it in his heart, and suspected that he thought he was poor.

At that time, she was still thinking that if Mo Wenjun misunderstood him, it would be good to end this relationship.

Unexpectedly, what she was waiting for was not the news of Mo Wenjun's breakup, but Mo Wenjun's decision to resign and work alone to build a "golden house" for her.

Even the name of the magazine was chosen by Mo Wenjun based on his feelings for her. Mo Wenjun said that for her, he would always burn this fire in his heart.

Although the "golden house" didn't even have a "golden brick", Peng Xinyue's attitude towards Mo Wenjun changed.

Qi Kun sipped the mutton soup with a "huh, huh", ignoring the loving presence of Mo Wenjun and Peng Xinyue.

After eating a bowl, he wanted to serve Mo Wenjun again, but was protected by Mo Wenjun: "One bowl is enough, if you want to eat, let your partner give it to you."

Qi Kun laughed and said, "If you don't eat, you don't eat." He went to play with the camera again.

Peng Xinyue urged Mo Wenjun to drink the mutton soup quickly, and went to see the photos taken by Qi Kun by himself.

Turning over, he asked: "Qi Kun, the photos you took are so beautiful, and a few girls in our factory have asked about you. Can't you find someone?"

Qi Kun didn't even raise his head: "The person I'm looking for must be able to accompany me to Qinghai."

"I've told you a long time ago, you just live too unrealistically, a good girl, who would like to go to Qinghai with you to suffer."

Qi Kun touched the camera and said: "Then don't look for it, it's good to live alone."

Mo Wenjun sighed and stopped talking to Qi Kun.

Not much speculation.

The production department of Mincheng Cold Dishes Refrigerator Factory will still go to work this year from New Year's Eve to the third day of the Spring Festival and the fourth day of the Spring Festival.

Even the two stores in Zhengzhou and Mincheng are like this.

Other departments have also carried out shifts as needed.

However, going to work has its advantages. Lengdie Refrigerator Factory has good benefits, and the wages, bonuses, and overtime pay are all paid.

The benefits paid out during the Chinese New Year are double those of last year. Those who live in Mincheng are fine, but those who live in the countryside can take them home.

Shi Jingqi kept his share early, leaving the ones that could be brought back to Shijiawan, and sent the rest to the Liu family.

This year's New Year's Eve is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is also the day when Lu Hongmei returns home. According to the customs of Mincheng, returning home is the first time for a married girl to return to her natal home. Apart from her parents, there are only a few relatives left in her natal home, including uncles, grandpas, aunts, and uncles. Bring gifts.

With Liu Guodong, Liu Qinqin, and Shi Jingqi's Spring Festival benefits, half of these gifts are prepared, so there is no need for Liu's father and Liu's mother to worry too much.

Therefore, Mother Liu liked Shi Jingqi, the future son-in-law, even more, and kept praising him for his ability to handle affairs.

On this day, Liu Guodong accompanied Lu Hongmei to the door banquet, and Liu Qinqin also accompanied Shi Jingqi back to Shijiawan.

Knowing that Shi Jingqi rode a bicycle back to Shijiawan last year, Liu Qinqin also proposed to go back by bicycle, but Shi Jingqi refused.

　Thank you for the recommendation ticket that wants to sing me to you, thank you.
