Chapter 26: Qi Declare War, Three Yellow Eggs (1)
The news that Han Shuo was going to make a magazine has been a lot of noise online. Netizens have made various types of speculations about the sky-high royalties, the magazine names, the call for manuscripts, and the promotion of newcomers.
Han Shuo and Qianhong have never responded. Of course, in order to maintain the popularity of the topic, the company's public relations department and editors have become thousands of people, wearing colorful vests, elusive in major forums and microblogs. Sometimes, they are readers who do not know the truth, sometimes they are unfathomable insiders, and sometimes they are contributors who are eager to try...
At the same time, Han Shuo or Qianhong's spokesperson, who have been shutting down the phone or "not convenient to say more for the time being", will occasionally "say less" in a foggy way. These "two sentences" must be carefully considered or even some kind of decision-making public relations vocabulary. The characteristic is that it seems to have said a big secret, but in fact it has not said anything, so it has to return to the Internet and start a new round of speculation.
In such an environment, Qianhong Culture's official microblog released an important news on May 18, which stated that Qianhong Culture will hold a press conference a week later, that is, May 25. At that time, Han Shuo and Yi Shui'an will be present together to respond to the hot topics and common questions that have been popular on the Internet recently. As for the Han Shuo magazine name that has made netizens talk about, it will be revealed by Han Shuo, editor-in-chief of the new magazine.
Of course, as usual, there will be a rewarding event for forwarding comments. The message says that netizens can forward this message and leave a message to guess the magazine name. The guesser will get a free magazine for one year. The event will be in the second the magazine announces its name.
After the above two messages were published, followed by a "glorious dividing line". Under the dividing line, there was a line of words written in large font: At the press conference, another major news was released!!!
Han Shuo announced the magazine name and Yi Shui'an served as the editor-in-chief of "The Great Rivers and Lakes". These two news is enough to cause huge waves in the industry. In the face of these two news, what else is qualified to be called heavy news?
Han Shuo and Yi Shui'an's relationship?
Lu Yichou and Xue Muliang join forces?
After this message was released, Han Shuo, Yi Shui'an, Lu Yichou and other authors under Qianhong reposted it, congratulating editor Han and editor Yi in a sarcastic manner, saying that he would not ask for birth on the same day of the same month of the same year, but he would ask for editor-in-chief on the same day of the same month of the same year...
Immediately, this message became a hot topic on the headlines of microblogs that day.
...
On the second day after Qianhong Culture created the hot topic of the day, Xue Muliang, chairman of Dingjie Culture, the head of youth literature, the best-selling king, and editor-in-chief of "Ding Novels", finally took action!
At around 9:00 am on May 19, Xue Muliang previewed on his microblog: "At 12:30 noon, there are major photos released. I don't know what changes will happen to the world after releasing this photo, but I know that my world will be upside down. I can't reveal too much. If I really force me, then there are four words, no, no, children - not suitable!"
An old but perfect silence, which has been tried and tested, netizens exclaimed at the same time, and Xue Muliang finally wanted to release the bed photos of him and Shen You!
So, a good thing netizens borrowed a poster from a movie and PSed an intimate photo of Xue Muliang and Shen You, which quickly aroused the netizens' enthusiasm for forwarding. At the same time, another PS photo called "Love Breaks the River and Sea" was also spread in a small range. In this photo, Xue Muliang and Han Shuo sat back to back on the beach of the Chengpu River, and a red sunset fell to the west. In the illusory background, the bright pearls in the east were towering.
Just as the bustle was slowly calming down, at about twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Xue Muliang's personal homepage suddenly updated: I want to "confess" to everyone. Although several books have been published and even though several books have won the annual sales championship, when the editor told me that my new book "Sad Forest" on June 1st will be serialized on "Ding Novel", I still couldn't help but be nervous, garbled, and ran away. At this moment, I had no idea what I was doing. Don't look for me or ask me, and let me hide in the forest alone.
The accompanying picture of this passage is a half-body photo of King Xue!
A firm and unyielding expression, bronze skin, clearly visible six-pack abs, and vaguely hairs...
Xue Muliang finally took out his killer weapon - let it go, fruit, photo!
Is this the real meaning of "confession"?
For a moment, netizens did not even respond effectively. When everyone reacted, the "Toutiao" homepage joked and forwarded the PS photo of "Love is broken through the rivers and seas".
Xue Muliang became a hot topic of the day as he wished, and he made the headlines with joy. However, he never expected that the inconspicuous and disgusting PS photo would actually put his "stunning naked" under him.

[Shuke lay on the periscope and saw that his heart almost stopped beating: cats were everywhere on the street.
"Reversing!" Shuke hurriedly said. The tank turned around and drove in the opposite direction. Not far away, it was another sudden brake. Shuke and Beta finally understood that this was a cat city. At this time, the cats on the street were attracted by this novel trick and surrounded the tank like a tide. Shuke and Beta had no way to escape.]
When Qianhong Culture announced the big news, when Xue Muliang was showing off his fruit photos to create topics, and when the Internet started wave after wave of carnival, the three good student Liu Jingting sat quietly in his room, typing on the keyboard with a focused expression, and finally completed the story of Chapters 7 to 9 of "Shuke and Beta".
After writing the manuscript, I logged into WC to send the manuscript to Editor-in-Chief Yao. However, as soon as I went online, I saw that the avatars of Mihu and Tang Nan were flashing. I clicked on the dialog box of Mihu. I first gave a simple greeting and chasing the manuscript below "Seven Swords Under the Tianshan Mountains". I also joked about the tit-for-tat of Qianhong and Xue Muliang:
"For the sake of Children's Day, they have all been armed to their teeth or stripped naked to their stomachs, and you, as a part of them, have not made any noise."
Liu Jingting was deeply attracted by the saying "Take off naked until his stomach". He boldly guessed that this sentence is probably the same as "armed to the teeth", but this saying is quite imaginative when expressed with some teasing meaning by a beautiful girl.
Then he clicked Tang Nan's dialog box, and Tang Nan left a message to convey three meanings. One was to invite him to attend the press conference on May 25, and the other was to send him the royalties for "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua".
Liu Jingting first sent "Shuke and Beta" to editor-in-chief Yao, and then replied to Mi Hu's message: "I don't know what level it is to take off my stomach, but with my current cultivation level, I really feel like I'm being stripped off by myself with my current cultivation.
Also, are the moving matters ready and are the admission going smoothly?”
Then, he replied to Tang Nan's message: "I'm very busy with my studies and am still young. I don't want to repeat the story of hurting Zhongyong, so I won't go to the press conference. I will go to your company to sign a contract in two days and get the money at the same time. I wish you all the best."
As an editor, Tang Nan naturally stayed online all the time during working hours. When he saw Liu Jingting's reply, he smiled bitterly and began to type on the keyboard: "The press conference is very important. It will announce the launch of your "Dragon and Tiger". Mr. Lu gave me a death order. Please be sure to invite you to the audience."
Liu Jingting looked at Tang Nan's reply and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Cultural businessmen are still businessmen after all."
Lu Yichou's idea is very simple. Liu Jingting lit a small face in front of the media. His little face will definitely attract the attention of the media immediately. The name of "young genius writer" is natural. Moreover, according to the media's temperament, in less than a week, how many branches and leaves of the poplar tree in the east of Liu Jingting's hometown will be investigated clearly. Therefore, can the true identity of the author of "Shuke and Beta" still be hidden?
Faced with this situation, Liu Jingting really didn't know how to refuse, so he naturally wouldn't use the reason of self-reliance like "forcing me not to cooperate". After thinking for a while, Liu Jingting replied: "I will tell Mr. Lu directly, you can be busy."
As soon as he sent this sentence, Editor-in-Chief Yao's avatar shook again. He clicked on it and said in a simple sentence: "I received the manuscript, as wonderful as ever, thank you for your hard work."
Liu Jingting smiled back and said nothing.
In the afternoon of the same day, "Children's Literature" released a story trailer of "Shuke and Beta" on its official website, and left a meaningful sentence: "Children's Day is a festival for children!"
Although it was not stated explicitly, the implicit meaning was already very obvious. Due to the excellent performance of the two issues of "Children's Literature and Art", the magazine's dynamics have also attracted the attention of some media and peers. After some rendering, a media outlet created such a title:
Qianhong, "Ding Novel" has just begun, and "Children's Literature" has joined the front line!
This news is full of provocation to treat Qianhong, "Children's Literature" and "Ding Novel" as the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty, artificially creating a three-legged tripod and competing for Children's Day. This news greatly satisfys the mentality of online games not afraid of trouble when watching the excitement, and quickly becomes a hot topic.
The three families responded differently to this. Xue Muliang in the luxurious office looked disdainful, but he looked at his mobile phone screen with great concern; Qianhong Lu Yichou did some things drastically and was full of expectations for this confrontation; Yao's editor-in-chief of "Children's Literature" was Gu Jing Bubo, and Yun Danfeng smiled gently, which was the calmness of watching Qiu Feng Xiaosa. She was not that she didn't care or was completely confident, but she knew in her heart that her magazine positioning had never been related to these competitions.
...
On May 25, at 10 o'clock in the morning, the press conference of Qianhong Culture Development Co., Ltd. was held as scheduled. With the strong appeal of Han Shuo and Yi Shui'an, the press conference was full of unexpectedly. In addition to the media that came to the scene, there were more fans and readers of Han and Yi.
Qianhong senior executives, including Lu Yichou, appeared at the press conference on time, but the media was not particularly interested in them. They asked a few questions symbolically, and they were all about the two authors who had not arrived at the scene. Lu Yichou was obviously used to this and answered calmly with a smile like spring.
At around 10:20, the young beautiful writer Yi Shui'an, who had always been low-key, came here, and her dark green dress attracted the attention of the audience. Lu Yichou and others stood up to greet him. Yi Shui'an bowed to apologize to everyone, which caused fans to cheer, and the media's long spears and short cannons were also aimed at the quiet woman.
At half past ten, Han Shuo arrived and greeted everyone apologetically, pushing the press conference to another climax. During this riot, Lu Yichuang's confident voice suddenly rang: "Please rest assured, our press conference is about to begin."
The scene slowly became quiet, and the professional media immediately pointed the camera in their hands at Lu Yichou. After all, he was the real master of today's press conference.
Chapter completed!
