And he was the first person to raise objections. Before, everyone had been bombarding Jiang Cheng's paper, but no one had refuted it. He was the first person to raise objections! Such a voice seemed very harsh, and everyone suddenly shut their mouths - the entire editorial department became a little quiet at this moment, and the professors and ordinary editors all looked at this young man.
He is an intern at a technology magazine.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet...
In such an atmosphere, the intern felt a little uncomfortable. He pushed his glasses and was about to speak when he was interrupted.
The person who interrupted him was the editor-in-chief of the science fiction magazine, the chief editor, who could be said to be the boss of the editorial department.
He looked at the intern and said, "You are fired. You don't need to come tomorrow."
"Huh?" The young intern was stunned. He had never expected that he would be treated like this just because he raised an objection! This is too malicious! !
The young intern was a fan of Jiang Cheng. Ever since Jiang Cheng's press conference, he had been paying close attention to this Oriental man who was younger than him. After the virtual reality equipment was officially put on sale, the transparent mobile phone was developed! After that, his admiration for Jiang Cheng was like a surging river...
Just now, listening to this group of old professors constantly slandering and attacking Jiang Cheng because of that paper, he couldn't help but say this. Who knew that he would be greeted with such an ending? ? This is too cruel!
The young intern was a little bit unbelieving.
Editor-in-Chief, Harenbost, looked at the intern and said with a smile, "I know you are not convinced, but I still want to say that the paper has a fundamental error, and incidentally refutes all the theories put forward by the masters now - no, it should be more appropriate to use the term "reprimand"! Do you know
He, Jiang Cheng, an underage Chinese, no matter how young he is or what achievements he has made, after proposing a meaningless theory, he actually spoke in such a tone, arrogant to the extreme! Are you still partial to him
So I think you are not suitable for this job! Although you have performed well before, if you are not suitable for this job, you will leave this position sooner or later, so it is better to leave now. "
Listening to the words of the editor-in-chief Harlan Bost, the young intern Rod's cheeks turned red, but he didn't know what to say.
No one spoke. The professors looked at him coldly. The atmosphere was very cold. Obviously, they all felt that there was nothing wrong with Harenbost's approach. This young man's views were so naive. He was really not suitable for this job. It would be a good idea to change jobs.
At this moment, the editor-in-chief Harlan Spock's private phone suddenly rang.
"Who's calling me at this time?" Harlansport frowned and answered the call. After the call was connected, Harlansport's expression quickly changed!
His face became uglier and uglier, so uglier that the professors and editors next to him noticed it and realized that something big might have happened!
Soon, the editor-in-chief put down his phone.
"I have decided to resign from this position." Harlansport said coldly with a flash of determination in his eyes.
"ha?"
"what happened?"
"What happened? Tell me!"
The decision of editor-in-chief Spot instantly shocked all the editors in the room, including the intern Rod! Everyone stared at editor-in-chief Spot in amazement, not knowing what had happened, what was going on, why did he suddenly resign, what was going on? He just received a call and suddenly said such a thing. So, who did he call just now, and what kind of news did he hear that made him make such a decision
Those who didn't know couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they thought, so everyone started asking. Fortunately, the editor-in-chief Spot didn't keep it secret. He said directly with an unpleasant expression, "It's like this, the Science and Technology Magazine has been acquired."
"The Science and Technology Magazine was acquired? Why? I remember that the magazine is not short of money, so it is impossible for it to be acquired! This is totally unreasonable!" someone raised questions.
Editor-in-Chief Spot looked at him and explained, "The price offered by the other party was too hard for the directors to refuse. After careful discussion, they decided to sell the Science and Technology Magazine!!"
"How much money did the other party give?" someone asked.
"Yeah, how much money did they give to sell the Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House? This is killing the goose that lays the golden eggs!" someone snorted.
These professors were very upset about the sudden change of their boss. Why was it so sudden? There was no news at all. The magazine was sold just like that! It was too sudden!
Editor-in-Chief Spot sighed and said, "The other party offered more than three times the total value of the current Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House to buy the Science and Technology Magazine. This was a price that the higher-ups could not refuse, so the magazine was sold just like that."
"More than three times?!!!" Everyone gasped. You know, the Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House is so famous that the estimated value is somewhat inflated. Even so, the other party should have given more than three times the price! No wonder the directors above had no way to refuse this price.
A professor and editor with a beard said, "It's a little strange and sudden that the publishing house was sold, but we can only accept this fact. There's nothing we can do about it! In fact, for us, it's just a change of boss. It's not a big deal at all. Why do you want to resign?"
"Yeah, it's just a change of boss, why do you want to resign?"
"Editor-in-Chief Spot, you are too impulsive. Don't resign!" someone advised.
However, the editor-in-chief of Spot shook his head and said, "This is not the reason why I resigned... Do you know who bought the Science and Technology Magazine Publishing House?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Then the editor-in-chief Spot said, "It's the Cosmic Umbrella Technology~ Company."
"Umbrella Technologies?"
"Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company?"
"Cosmic Umbrella Technology Company!?" Everyone read the name and quickly realized what was going on!
"Isn't Cosmic Umbrella Technology the company of that guy named Jiang Cheng? How could they acquire the publishing house directly?" The gray-haired old professor widened his eyes in disbelief and asked, "Why... why...?"
