Literary Master 1978

Speaking of which, Liang Zuo's family is not a powerful family in Yanjing, but it can also be called a famous family.

His mother Chen Rong is a well-known writer, and his father Fan Rongkang is the deputy editor-in-chief of the People's Daily.

The wedding was held today, and the family held a banquet with 16 tables in Fengze Garden to entertain guests from both sides, with a grand ceremony.

Lin Chaoyang is familiar with Liang Zuo and his mother Chen Rong, so there are many familiar friends among the guests who came today, mainly concentrated in the 77th grade students of the Chinese Department of Yan University and the two groups of people from the Literary Association.

After paying the share money, Lin Chaoyang sat at the table and waited for the banquet to start, chatting with acquaintances.

Everyone can't help but mention his crown. Today, when he went to pick up the bride, Lin Chaoyang's crown was in the limelight.

Then the topic talked about royalties. After all, Lin Chaoyang bought the crown just a few months after "Crossing Guandong" was hot. If you say that there is no credit for royalties, no one will believe it.

Today is the wedding of Chen Rong's son. Many famous writers in the Yanjing literary world came. It is estimated that in a few days, the news that Lin Chaoyang bought a car will spread throughout the Yanjing literary world.

"Hey, Chaoyang!"

Li Tuo is indispensable in all matters in Yanjing. He came to Lin Chaoyang and called out.

Lin Chaoyang looked at him, "What?"

"Have you heard? Yang Mo retired."

Yang Mo is the editor-in-chief of "Yanjing Literature".

"I haven't heard of it."

Lin Chaoyang replied calmly. Yang Mo is basically a figurehead in "Yanjing Literature". It doesn't matter whether he retires or not. The key is that this matter has nothing to do with Lin Chaoyang.

"Do you know who is the editor-in-chief?"

Li Tuo's words are obviously not a question. He is like a gossip. How could he not know about such a thing and come to ask Lin Chaoyang.

"Who?"

"Old Lin!" Li Tuo said.

Old Lin is Lin Jinlan.

After Yang Mo left, it was natural for him to become the editor-in-chief of "Yanjing Literature". He had enough literary achievements and qualifications.

Lin Chaoyang looked at Lin Jinlan who was talking with Yang Mo not far away, and then looked at Li Tuo curiously, "Why do you care about this?"

Li Tuo said embarrassedly: "I'm quite interested in editing books recently."

Lin Chaoyang understood at once that he wanted to find a job at "Yanjing Literature". With Li Tuo's status in the world, he would certainly not be willing to start from a small soldier in the editorial department.

But he didn't understand why Li Tuo said these things to him. Did he want him to go to Old Lin to help him make peace?

Seeing the question in Lin Chaoyang's eyes, Li Tuo said a little depressed: "Old Lin doesn't think highly of me."

Lin Chaoyang nodded, "Old Lin's judgment of people is still very accurate."

Li Tuo was immediately angry and said, "You are talking nonsense! It's him, Old Lin, who is blind."

Lin Chaoyang did not rush to refute him, but just looked at Li Tuo's back with a smile. Li Tuo seemed to have sensed something, turned his head and saw Lin Jinlan standing behind him, looking at him with a gloomy face.

Caught in the act of saying bad things, Li Tuo ran away in shame.

Lin Jinlan sat next to Lin Chaoyang and asked, "What did Li Tuo say to you?"

"You don't know what he said." Lin Chaoyang replied with a smile.

Lin Jinlan looked relaxed, without any trace of the gloomy look from before, and said: "Sister Yang has not been in good health in the past two years, and she has no energy to manage the affairs of "Yanjing Literature". The Literary Association intends to let me take over."

Lin Chaoyang listened to his words and nodded. The Literary Association mentioned by Lin Jinlan refers to the Yanjing Literary Association. "Yanjing Literature" is a publication under the Yanjing Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and the main leaders have always been appointed by the Yanjing Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the Literary Association.

"They have a good idea, but I am not much younger than Sister Yang, how can I have so much energy!"

Lin Chaoyang listened to Lin Jinlan's complaints, but he didn't rush to speak, he knew that Lin Jinlan must have something else to say.

"Even if I went to Yenching Literature, at best I would be like Sister Yang, a hands-off boss who doesn't care about anything.

This time Sister Yang is retiring, and Su Xinqun is also going to retire, just a few months later than her.

Originally, he was the only one who worked hard in the editorial department, and now even he has left. I am really afraid that the reputation of Yenching Literature will be ruined."

Speaking of this, Lin Jinlan sighed, his eyes fell on Lin Chaoyang, and seeing that Lin Chaoyang still had no reaction, he had to make it clear.

"Chaoyang, I heard that you rarely go to the library of Yenching University. Otherwise, you come to Yenching Literature to join my team?"

Lin Chaoyang's face was full of surprise when he heard this. He didn't expect that Lin Jinlan came here for this matter?

Lin Jinlan went to Yenching Literature as the editor-in-chief and invited Lin Chaoyang to go with him, which probably meant that he was assigned the position of the first deputy editor-in-chief or executive deputy editor-in-chief.

To put it bluntly, he was doing the work of the editor-in-chief under the title of deputy editor-in-chief.

He was not interested in being a workhorse, so he shook his head without hesitation after hearing this, his attitude was extremely firm.

"Not interested!"

Lin Jinlan said again: "Don't rush to refuse. You can be a deputy editor-in-chief for the time being. After two years, I will retire and the position of editor-in-chief will be yours. I promise you."

Lin Chaoyang said: "Why do I need the position of editor-in-chief? Old Lin, you really found the wrong person for this. I have no interest in being an editor or running a magazine."

Hearing his straightforward refusal, Lin Jinlan couldn't help but feel disappointed, "Running a magazine is also good, it won't delay your creative time too much. And with your personality and popularity, "Yanjing Literature" will definitely develop in your hands in the future."

"It has nothing to do with whether it will delay my creation. If I have that time, I would rather sit at home and drink tea and daydream."

Lin Chaoyang's words were free and easy, but Lin Jinlan heard it as laziness, and was angry at him for not fighting.

"Tell me about you, you are only in your twenties, why do you live like an old man?"

Lao Lin's words are considered the lowest level of PUA in the workplace in the future. Lin Chaoyang said calmly: "I call this enjoying life, you don't understand."

Lin Jinlan was blocked by a sentence. Lin Chaoyang thought he would end the topic, but he didn't expect Lin Jinlan to roll his eyes for a while and then speak again.

"Chaoyang, I heard that Yushu is doing very well in People's Literature?"

Lin Chaoyang's eyes stayed on him, "What do you mean? You have to drag someone from our family to work for you in Yanjing Literature?"

"Look at what you said! What do you mean by working for me? The magazine is not mine alone.

I heard from Yang Mo that when Yushu was in Yanjing Literature, she was very dedicated to her work, had strong professional skills, good interpersonal relationships, and most importantly, dared to give young authors opportunities. She has also trained a lot of young authors in the past two years, right?"

Lin Jinlan came up and praised Tao Yushu, and then continued:

"I think she is quite valued by Wang Meng in People's Literature, and she is specifically responsible for the supplement Friends of People's Literature.

However, the supplement Friends of People's Literature, which is specially created to cooperate with amateur authors, is less valuable than ordinary supplements and has little development potential.

It's a bit of a waste of Yushu's talent."

Lin Chaoyang listened to Lin Jinlan's words and pondered in silence.

Seeing this, Lin Jinlan said again: "I have known you two for several years, and I think I know Yushu's personality well. If she were a gay man, she would definitely be more successful at work than you."

Hey hey hey!

You are talking well, why is it still a ginseng rooster?

"Of course, women can hold up half the sky. If Yushu comes to our "Yanjing Literature" now, she will not be inferior to us gay men. How about it? Let your Yushu come to "Yanjing Literature" as a deputy editor-in-chief?"

Tao Yushu was originally brought from "Yanjing Literature" to "People's Literature" by Wang Meng, which can be said to be a move to a higher position.

After coming to "People's Literature", Wang Meng also attached great importance to her, gave her a lot of support in her work, and also let her be in charge of the supplement "Friends of People's Literature", nominally the deputy editor-in-chief of the supplement, but the level and treatment are still ordinary editors.

If you want to be a real deputy editor-in-chief in "People's Literature", you have to endure at least more than ten years of qualifications, and this is just to be qualified as a deputy editor-in-chief.

There are many people who are qualified to be deputy editors in "People's Literature", but not everyone can be the deputy editor-in-chief.

But if you go to "Yenching Literature", it will be different. With Lin Jinlan's promise, you will be the deputy editor-in-chief.

Who would have thought that Tao Yushu had only been away from "Yenching Literature" for a year and a half, and when he returned, he had turned around and became the leader of his colleagues in the editorial department.

Don't say, this plot is quite exciting!

"This... I have to go back and discuss it with Yushu." Lin Chaoyang said.

Lin Jinlan nodded, "Of course. If necessary, I can go talk to her."

Lin Chaoyang asked again: "Then the editor-in-chief..."

Lin Jinlan laughed and scolded: "You are too greedy. The editor-in-chief position of "Yanjing Literature" must be one of you two?"

"Oh! I just asked casually."

Lin Jinlan said that he would let Lin Chaoyang take over the editor-in-chief position after his retirement. Of course, he wanted to win over Lin Chaoyang. With Lin Chaoyang's fame and status in the literary world today, he is also worthy of such a win.

But if it was Tao Yushu, Lin Jinlan would naturally not make such a promise.

The two finished talking about business, and the wedding was almost going on. Seeing that it was almost time to start the banquet, Lin Jinlan returned to his own table, and Li Tuo ran over from nowhere.

"What did Lao Lin tell you?"

"Nothing, he said that I should go to Yenching Literature to be the deputy editor-in-chief, and he would just be a nominal editor."

After listening to Lin Chaoyang's words, Li Tuo was like a beaten eggplant, completely wilted.

If it was any other competitor, Li Tuo would still have the confidence to compete, but this opponent happened to be Lin Chaoyang.

What the hell is he competing for!

"Since there is Yu, why is there Liang!" He couldn't help but sighed to the sky.

Lin Chaoyang couldn't help but sneer, "You really know how to flatter yourself."

Li Tuo said angrily: "Don't look down on people! I can't be the deputy editor-in-chief of Yenching Literature, but it doesn't mean that I can't be the deputy editor-in-chief of other magazines."

Lin Chaoyang didn't doubt this. With Li Tuo's wide-ranging personality, it shouldn't be a big problem for him to be the deputy editor-in-chief of a literary magazine.

Lin Chaoyang didn't tell Li Tuo that he rejected Lin Jinlan, not for anything else, but mainly because he was afraid that Li Tuo couldn't accept this blow.

It's not a big deal that he lost to me, after all, no matter from which angle, I have a clear advantage over Li Tuo.

Especially in terms of academic qualifications, he is even more crushing.

Li Tuo just got through junior high school, but he has a formal undergraduate degree (correspondence course) from Yanda University.

A complete dimensionality reduction attack!

But if Li Tuo knew that he couldn't even compete with Tao Yushu, he would probably want to die.

For the sake of his friend's mental and physical health, Lin Chaoyang decided not to tell him about this.
