This question is too deep, and I couldn't figure it out for a moment. I just knew that it was very difficult for me to tell Cheng Hua that I liked him. In comparison, I would rather express my heart with actions than words . So, I stopped thinking about this complicated issue, went back to the bedroom, and fell asleep.
When I got up early in the morning, from the moment I washed my face and brushed my teeth, the old lady followed me step by step, until I sat at the dining table, stuffing breakfast into my mouth quickly, while listening to my mother babbling about analyzing the situation in front of me. pros and cons.
"Mom, I've thought about it, Xiaohua is indeed like what you said before, and she can't be by your side most of the time. But, you are young now, and your career is still on the rise. It's not good to be too close to me. Didn’t the movie say that distance produces beauty? If you want to live forever, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. You see, your dad and I are staring at each other every day, and we are almost staring at each other. But in the past, your dad was busy with his career. After a while, it’s not that I can’t see you from time to time, let alone whether there is anyone to take care of when you are sick. When your mother gave birth to you, your father was not around, and your father came back when the confinement was almost over. But, I will never see you , we have deep feelings when we meet each other. After all, we watched Xiaohua grow up since we were young. We know what is good and what is bad. Your aunt Yue likes you again. You don’t know. After getting married, mother-in-law This role is very important. If you really don't invite your mother-in-law to see you, you will have a bad life.
Of course, Editor Liu is also better than Editor Liu. He is a literati, stable, and easy-going. Although he is a little older, age is not a big problem. But they are literati, they think a lot in their minds, and they have a lot of twists and turns in their hearts. With your IQ, how can you guess his thoughts? And he doesn't know anything about the situation in his family. If you really meet a mean mother-in-law, you will be embarrassed sometimes. "
I seized the moment when my mother finished speaking this sentence, quickly bit the fried dough stick, and argued inarticulately: "Mom, why are they literati, and I am also a literati, okay?"
When I say this, I don't mean to convince my mother that Liu Tao is better than Cheng Hua, but I just don't want my mother to kill a whole bunch of literati with one shot.
"You, are you still a literati? You can become a literati after you can write a few articles? You have learned a lot from literati, how can you have the heart of a literati?" My mother poked my forehead and said angrily.
I quickly took a sip of soy milk, and immediately stood up and said, "Okay, listen to what Mom says, it's better than studying for ten years, I'm leaving, I'm going to work."
My mother just chased after me and continued to talk, "It's good to be enthusiastic and self-motivated at work. But personal problems can't afford to delay, you are already 25. It's not what my mother said, hurry up and settle down with Xiaohua, so as to save trouble, People are not like you, there are so many choices around you, you are so exhausted, sooner or later you will run out of patience with others. You quickly make up your mind, get married first and then talk about it."
I was standing on one foot and was kicking on my shoes. My mother's words made me happy. I staggered and almost fell off the road. I grabbed my mother's arm to maintain my balance, and then I turned my head and said to her earnestly: "Mom, what do you do about this matter?" Don't be wishful thinking, Cheng Hua is an artist, and it's not that easy for an artist to get married, this marriage is not something you want to get married, you can get married if you want to."
"Then I'll ask him..." My mother said, I grabbed my schoolbag, shook my head and waved my hands quickly, and got out of the wave without looking back.
When I arrived at the newspaper office, I made some tea and turned on the computer, and someone from the clerical office came to ask me to go through the transfer procedures. While I was dealing with the various signatures and procedures in my hand, I thought, if Liu Tao usually looks calm, if I can do it Come to think of it, he really has a bit of vigor and resoluteness. What my mother said may be biased, but one thing is indeed true. Liu Tao is definitely not someone I can easily understand with my IQ. If Cheng Hua is compared to him, although his acting skills are excellent, but because of his deep knowledge, I can always judge when he is acting. , when is true. But Liu Tao, I can't see the truth or falsehood.
After all the formalities are completed, I have to briefly hand over to the editor who took over, and say goodbye to everyone along the way. Although it was a department transfer, it was just a matter of upstairs and downstairs, so when saying goodbye to a few people who were close to me, I didn't have any worries about parting. Only Wu Xiaoxiao pulled me to say a few more words about myself, but basically it was just that I went to a new department, do more things and talk less, and in all things, even if I disagree with Liu Tao, I still have to follow Liu Tao's lead.
I nodded gratefully. I have only been working with Wu Xiaoxiao for a few months, but this old lady has taken care of me a lot and never forgot to teach me before leaving. Now I am in a newspaper office, or let alone a newspaper office, anywhere. Well-meaning seniors are also rare. I can listen to everything I say, or not, but I know that she is a person who treats me sincerely.
After arriving at the new office, I was assigned a seat outside Liu Tao's office. I was on the right hand and the paperwork was on the left. We just guarded Liu Tao's office like two door gods.
Liu Tao led me to say hello to several editors and reporters who were already in place. There were no external recruits among the new employees, and they were all transferred from other departments of the newspaper. In the building, there is always a familiar face, and there is no strangeness. But among these people, there was really someone who was not only familiar, but really familiar, and it turned out to be Quan Ying.
"Why are you here?" I asked in surprise.
Quanying smiled and pursed her lips, "You are only allowed to come, not me?" Her tone was reproachful, but her expression was full of joy. It must be a joy to meet old acquaintances in a new department.
After all the politeness was done, Quan Ying pulled me and started muttering in the corner, this girl has always been like this, she is definitely a small talker, especially after Hong Kong, although we work in the same building, it is I haven't encountered it yet, it's probably because I'm holding my stomach.
I was still curious, so I took the time to ask her, "Aren't you in the fashion section? Why are you here at Entertainment Weekly?"
"The weekly magazine will also have a special fashion page in the future, and some people with resources will also be needed for management. I am purely supporting the construction of old, young, frontier and poor areas with integrity."
I covered my mouth and smiled, wondering what Liu Tao would think when he heard Quanying call us a backward area.
Quanying has always been more informed than I am. After chatting with me for a while, I have a general idea of the current organization here. It really is the intertwined relationship between all parties. Like me and Liu Tao, we belong to the Zaobao faction, that is, from the Zaobao, and the editor-in-chief brought over from the Evening News faction. The Evening News has been established longer than the Zaobao, so the people of the Evening News are in the newspaper office, and their roots are deeper than that of the Zaobao. There are also some collateral, people from other weekly magazines, websites, etc., and there are always various relationships, and my head is a little confused when I hear it.
"Then which faction are you?" I asked, although Quan Ying is also from the Zaobao, but she probably has never worked with Liu Tao before, so it seems that she shouldn't be a member of the Zaobao faction.
"It's hard to say..." Quan Ying smiled and winked at me seriously.
I scolded myself two hundred and five in my heart, yes, splitting into cliques or something, everyone said this in private, how can I ask it directly on my face like this, it seems that my mother's words are not too unfair Me, I really can't make too many twists and turns with my brain cells.
Among all the personnel already in place, some have not yet officially transferred their relationship, and some have simply entrusted the two companies with one hand. However, the weekly magazine has now entered the substantive publication process, so they are all tight-knit. Things to do here.
Once I started working on the content of the weekly magazine, I realized that there was a serious mistake in my previous consciousness. In my mind, the weekly magazine was published once a week, and the labor intensity must be much less than that of the daily newspaper. Compared with the busy state of the daily newspaper, it is almost the same.
But the reality is far from that. The weekly magazine has fewer people, and an editor has to manage a lot more pages than the daily newspaper. Moreover, the editing and editing of the weekly magazine is not independent, that is, the editors themselves have to write manuscripts. In order to be able to interview for the weekly magazine on Monday, all my colleagues and I stayed up late and worked overtime every day, without rest for six days. Drafting, imposing, and proofreading were all a joy every day. On the darkest day, for a full 24 hours, several of our key editors never touched our upper and lower eyelids, and we never came home. Son, just wash your face with cold water and continue to struggle.
I have probably never been in such a tense working state in my life. In the past, when I was in the morning newspaper, special news needed to be delayed, that is, one or two days, and the battle lasted for several days. I was very uncomfortable and almost regretted it in my heart. This decision from the morning newspaper to the weekly magazine. Fortunately, each of the freshly released pages, with my creativity and painstaking efforts, can always inject some chicken blood into my decadent fighting spirit. In addition, Liu Tao's special care for me also makes me feel better. I have the passion to die for my confidant, and this bit of chicken blood and passion finally supports me to continue to stick to my post.
After going through this for more than half a week, when the newspaper was finally sent to the printing press, I didn't know what eve it was, and I slept in the dark. I don't know how long I slept this time, but I only know that when I was finally woken up by Liu Tao's phone call, there were at least twenty missed calls on my phone. And I was able to sleep so soundly. I didn't hear the phone ringing at all before. Even Liu Tao's call, according to him, was already the eighth call.
"Momo, come out and have a drink!" Liu Tao said on the phone, his gentle voice actually trembled with excitement, I was still in a chaotic state of mind, a bit confused about the situation, drink? What wine do you drink? Does Liu Tao still drink
Finally, I finally understood that this was a celebration of our department. The weekly magazine was sent out last night, and it went on the market at 8:00 in the morning, and it was sold out before 8:00 pm. As a trial issue, this is simply a miracle. The head of the agency has organized the printing shop to reprint immediately, and it is said that during this day, many advertisers have already approached the door.
Such a good start is almost what we expected, and it is best to hit the top. I suddenly understood Liu Tao's excitement. This weekly magazine is his child, and now that the child is shining in the family, he can't keep his parents from crying.
After putting Liu Tao's number on the phone, he picked up the phone and glanced at several missed calls, and was about to get up immediately and rush to the celebration banquet.
Apart from Cheng Hua's, there were no other important calls, and Cheng Hua had already called me at home if something urgent happened, so I decided to call him back when I was free, but the last text message I saw, It makes my heart skip a beat.
The text message was sent by sister Wei, "Did you see any new photos on the Internet?"
