The Wildest Urban Marriages: Contract Couples

Chapter 36 New Unit Registration

On the first day Miao Miao reported to "Jiangshanqing", she was pleasantly surprised by the working environment here. The office of "Jiangshanqing" publication is in the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles Building.The Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles Building is located in Honggu New District, Jianghai City. The Honggu New District has been developed recently. It has a high starting point and focuses on greening and beautification. The entire Honggu New District is like a boundless beautiful garden. In the courtyard where the buildings are green like gardens, the streets are wide and clean, with no traffic or people, unlike the crowded old town of Jianghai City, where the cars on the street are like moving ants, swarming in groups , can't see the head and tail.The air here is clear and the environment is quiet.

When the car arrived at the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles Building, Miao Miao paid the fee, got out of the car, and looked up at the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles buildings in front of her. The dark green glass shone brightly under the warm winter sun.The Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles Building is a newly built 2000-story building, covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters. A bamboo pavilion was set up, leading from the curved passage to the grassland on the bank. From a distance, you can see the reflection of this magnificent building on the pool. The building is covered with silver and white tiles from the wall to the floor. Walking inside, people's shadows reflect each other, and the spirit is much more refreshed.Compared with the slightly outdated buildings and yards of Jiangning Daily, this place is much more elegant, grand and modern.

Miao Miao approached Editor-in-Chief Lu's office according to the prompts on the phone with Editor-in-Chief Lu. The office of Editor-in-Chief Lu was very large and spacious, and the decoration was warm and simple. There was a large reception room outside, and Editor-in-Chief Lu was inside. At the office, Miao Miao knocked on the door and walked in, and saw Editor-in-Chief Lu sitting at his desk. Miao Miao came in, very happy, and hurriedly signaled Miao Miao to sit down on the opposite chair.

"How is it? It feels like it's here," Chief Editor Lu asked with concern.

"Very good. I don't know how much better than I imagined. I only knew that the publication "Jiangshan Qing" was booming, but I didn't expect that the working environment here is also first-class."

"Yes, the leaders of the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles are very intelligent. They founded these popular publications. Otherwise, there would be such a good environment. Thinking back to more than ten years ago, the Federation of Literary and Art Circles was still a Qingshui yamen, and many people were reluctant to come unless It’s true literature lovers who are willing to condescend to this, and now it’s good, many people can’t come if they want to, now it’s not someone who picks me, it’s us who pick someone else, there is no truth, we now reject them all.”

"I'm really afraid that I don't have much material and I will fail your expectations," Miao Miao said blushing a little.

"Haha, I believe in you, otherwise I wouldn't invite you here, you have to be confident, I'll ask Gu Xiaoying to take you around the offices, and ask her to show you your own office. After finishing speaking, Editor-in-Chief Lu made a phone call, and after a while, a short-haired woman in her forties and casual cotton clothes came in.

Miao Miao muttered in her heart: Gu Xiaoying seems to be the editor of the publication "Jiangshan Qing", Miao Miao clearly remembers that she edited and distributed all the novels she published before.

Editor-in-Chief Lu said: "This is Gu Xiaoying, director of the editorial office of "Jiangshan Qing", a veteran of our publication."

Miao Miao reached out to hold each other, and said with a smile, "Hello! So I only saw his name, but not his person."

Editor-in-chief Lu introduced to Gu Xiaoying: "This is Miao Miao, the new deputy director of the editorial office of "Jiangshanqing"."

"Oh, this is Miao Miao, hello, hello." Gu Xiaoying said in surprise, "I knew your name earlier, but I didn't see you. Today I met you. You really are like a person, with a delicate aura!"

"Where, Director Gu is too generous," Miao Miao said modestly.

Editor-in-chief Lu said: "Xiaoying, I hope you have a happy cooperation."

Gu Xiaoying said: "Editor-in-chief, don't worry, we will."

Editor-in-Chief Lu said: "Okay, Xiaoying, take Miaomiao around the offices and identify the doors and colleagues in each office. Her office has been tidied up, right?"

Gu Xiaoying said: "It's finished, I'll take her to see it later"

"Well, okay, you guys go, ask all the members of the editorial office to have dinner at Xinghui Restaurant at noon, and welcome our new members."

"En, good." After Gu Xiaoying answered, she took Miao Miao out of Editor-in-Chief Lu's office.

Miao Miao followed Gu Xiaoying to the various offices on the fourth floor. There were more than [-] offices in total. Miao Miao found that many employees here were young and energetic. They were all enthusiastic, which made Miao Miao feel a little more at ease.Gu Xiaoying told Miao Miao that the first to third floors of this building are the office buildings of the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the fourth floor is the office building of the publication "Jiangshan Qing", and the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors are two other publications and publishing houses run by the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles. The office building above six floors was rented out to some enterprises and companies, and the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles also set up a large printing factory in the suburb of Honggu.Miao Miao thought to herself: No wonder the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles can do so well.

In the end, Gu Xiaoying took Miaomiao to an office with the sign "Deputy Director's Office of the Editorial Office" and opened the door. The inside was clean and tidy. There was a big desk directly opposite, and some books and materials were placed on the desk. There is also an LCD computer on the right side of the table, behind it is a window sill, and the floor-to-ceiling light green curtains are drawn. Once you enter the door, you can see the scenery outside through the window. The scenery of Honggu New District is vivid in front of you. On the left side of the door is a large bookcase with some books inside. On the right side of the door is a set of sofa coffee table and tables and chairs. Although the layout is simple, Miao Miao feels very warm.

Gu Xiaoying asked: "Do you still like it?"

"I like it, I like it so much", Miao Miao really likes this office, this new environment gives Miao Miao a brand new feeling, although she has not started formal work yet, Miao Miao feels excited.

"On the table are some materials from our publications. You should read them first to get to know our unit and familiarize yourself with the work process. After two days, I will arrange work for you. You should familiarize yourself with it first."

Miao Miao smiled and said, "Okay."

Gu Xiaoying finally told Miao Miao that her office was next door to her, and asked Miao Miao to come to her directly if she needed anything.

After Gu Xiaoying left the office, Miao Miao walked to the window sill behind the office chair, looked at the scenery outside the window, and sighed in her heart: "A new day has begun!"

When Miao Miao arrived at her new unit, she changed her mobile phone number. She only told Wen Hui and her family about her new number, not her former friends and colleagues. She didn’t even tell her close friend Cui Xiaoshan. Miao Miao wanted to forget the past and start over. , she doesn't want anyone to talk to her about the past, to arouse her memories of the past, she wants to cheer up, she doesn't want to live in such a decadent way again.

Miao Miao quickly adapted to the new job. Miao Miao was in charge of reviewing and editing emotional stories and short stories. Miao Miao's enthusiasm for work was even higher than that at ZZ Newspaper. It turned out that ZZ Newspaper had a sense of responsibility and mission.Two months later, Miao Miao proposed several creative reforms: one is to require all published novels and articles to require editors to comment and write notes; the other is to cooperate with China Mobile and China Unicom to open Monternet and expand new revenue generation channel.These measures of Miaomiao are actually imitating the practice of literature websites. At present, physical publications are still seldom used. Miaomiao’s proposal has been appreciated by Editor-in-Chief Lu. Soon after the implementation of Monternet, it brought a new income point to the unit; The implementation of the editorial notes has been welcomed by many authors and readers. Many authors called Miao Miao and said they liked the editorial notes very much. The majority of readers also called to reflect, because the editorial notes have attracted readers' strong desire to read. , The influence and popularity of "Jiangshanqing" in the country has been further improved. According to the feedback from the marketing operation department, the sales volume of "Jiangshanqing" publication has increased by 30% compared with the original.Miao Miao is very comfortable working in her new position. Except for returning home occasionally, the empty room will make people feel a little lonely, but other aspects are also peaceful.

One Sunday afternoon, Miao Miao went to pick up her son from her mother's house, and her mother asked Miao Miao, "Why haven't I seen Wen Hui recently, are you guys bickering again?"

Miao Miao said: "No, he's very busy these days, why are he arguing!"

The son, who was having a great time with his two nieces, interrupted abruptly: "Grandma, Dad and Mom don't quarrel anymore, but Dad is getting busier now and often travels on business."

"Miao Miao, is that so?" There was a worried expression in the mother's eyes.

"Mom, don't worry. I heard that Taili plans to promote him to the deputy director of the planning department. So recently, he has been working hard. You know the nature of his work. There are many opportunities for business trips."

"Hey, it's a good thing for a man to get promoted, but it's not necessarily a good thing for the stability of the family. You have to take good care of the man in your family. The social atmosphere is not good now. Once a man gains power, he will get a second wife, third wife or something. How careful do you need to be?"

"Mom, what are you talking about, a man really has such a heart, how can you just watch him if you want to?"

"You, that's it, very confused"

"Mom, how worried are you"

"Don't worry about it. In the early years, you had less quarrels and quarrels. Now it's rare to see Wen Hui come to our house for dinner."

"Oh, you are worrying too much. Next weekend, I will ask him to come back some time to see you grow old."

"It doesn't matter whether he comes to see me or not, the main thing is that you have a good relationship."

What her mother said made Miao Miao feel confused about the future again. She found that she had no courage to disclose the fact of her divorce to her relatives and the outside world. Wen Hui said that she would tell her son when he was fourteen or fifteen years old He, but Miaomiao doesn't know how long this illusion can be covered up, because an illusion is an illusion, there will always be some traces that will leak out, and Miaomiao will feel strange panic from time to time.

Recently, Wen Hui didn't spend much time at home. He often saw his son for a while, and hurriedly said that he wanted to go back. Wen Hui told Miao Miao that their daughter had been suffering from inexplicable fevers and cramps recently. Many hospitals failed to diagnose the results. Wen Hui and his wife were very anxious and panicked.
