Chapter 021
Gao Yang followed Zhou Wenbin downstairs, and Zhou Wenbin said he would take him to eat Sichuan food.
After walking south for more than ten minutes, passing by the Meteorological Bureau, Zhou Wenbin took the lead into a courtyard. When he entered through the back door of the restaurant, Gao Yang remembered that he had visited this restaurant called Shuxiangyuan many times in his previous life.
In Beijing, this Sichuan restaurant is a mid-range restaurant, and the taste is relatively authentic.
The two sat down and ordered food and two bottles of beer. Zhou Wenbin lit a cigarette and asked, "I heard that you were directly transferred to a senior reporter?"
Gao Yang smiled and asked: "Who told you?"
Zhou Wenbin said: "Zheng Hai said it."
Gao Yang was startled and quickly understood. Zheng Hai was a big talker, good at communication, and he was considered a well-informed person.
Zhou Wenbin raised his thumb again: "Gao Yang, your level is enough to be the chief. If you are transferred to a senior level so quickly, it shows that Mr. Nan is quite discerning."
Gao Yang smiled slightly: "Don't talk nonsense. I've only been here a few days. I still have a lot to learn from you. Wan Hong is the chief."
Zhou Wenbin laughed: "Why be so modest? To be honest, Wan Hong is not much better than us in writing manuscripts. He is just diligent enough. Teacher Wu said that Wan Hong lacks spirituality. When it comes to writing manuscripts, none of us can compare.
you."
Gao Yang shook his head and smiled, refusing to take the issue.
Zhou Wenbin said: "I have a friend who works in a public relations company. The company has just been open for more than a year. Business will start in the second half of this year, and we may negotiate with two more clients next year. His company is short of writers and wants to find a reporter to write part-time.
Are you interested?"
Gao Yang was startled and asked with a smile: "How about a part-time job?"
Zhou Wenbin said: "What he means is that he will be responsible for writing articles for the company and have one person. In addition to writing articles, he may also need to attend some customer meetings.
Every week, you may need to go to the company for one day, or two and a half days.
In terms of remuneration, he offered four thousand a month, but it can be negotiated. For a master like you, I think it's okay to talk to six thousand."
Gao Yang smiled and asked, "Why didn't you answer?"
Zhou Wenbin shook his head: "I can't take it. I'm also writing articles for a public relations company, maybe two or three articles a month. The main reason is I don't want to be too tired."
Gao Yang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "The part-time job he asked for is similar to a full-time job. It's impossible, and I can't accept it."
Zhou Wenbin thought about it and said, "How about you help them write big manuscripts, and every order counts?"
Gao Yang said: "You can still try this. How can he bid?"
Zhou Wenbin asked: "What do you think?"
Gao Yang said: "One thousand words and five hundred."
Zhou Wenbin nodded: "Absolutely, five hundred words per thousand words is relatively high, and your level is worth the price. I'll talk to him first. If he can accept it, you two will meet and talk."
Gao Yang said: "Okay, no problem, but I can't accept too many manuscripts, at most two or three manuscripts a month."
Zhou Wenbin smiled and said: "The public relations company industry, like our media, also has off-season and peak season. During the off-season, you may not need to write big articles for a month. This guy's company has just started, and the current business is not that much."
On Wednesday morning, Gao Yang just got in the car and was about to go to Shenma Company for an interview with the Channel Academy. Lu Yonggang from Lianhe Media called and said that 800 million Company had passed the adjusted topic plan and the weekend interview was confirmed. He would go to Hebei
Interviews with agents in Baoding and Langfang of the province, a total of three agents, departed early on Saturday morning.
The two made an appointment to meet downstairs in the cpi office at 7 o'clock on Saturday morning.
In the next few days, Gao Yang was as busy as a top, spinning continuously every day.
I did an interview with Channel Academy on Wednesday morning, ran a meeting in the afternoon, worked overtime at night to catch up on the manuscript, and then sent it to Shenma Company for confirmation.
On Thursday, the newspaper held a mobilization meeting for the channel forum and detailed the tasks of each working group. Gao Yang was assigned to write a cover story for the special issue and an exclusive interview with a guest.
In the evening, Zhou Wenbin's friend from a public relations company invited him to dinner to discuss ghostwriting. They agreed on a standard of 500 yuan per 1,000 words and agreed on everything.
On Friday morning, Gao Yang first finished the layout of this issue of Channel Academy, then went out to do an exclusive interview in the afternoon, and then returned to the office to start working on the manuscript and editing the layout.
After 8 o'clock in the evening, the four pages of the editor were cleared, and Gao Yang found time to prepare the outline for the interview in Hebei Province on Saturday.
After rejecting Zhou Wenbin's snooker appointment, Gao Yang was busy until after 11 o'clock in the evening. Only then did Gao Yang sort out the interview outlines for the three agents and print them out. He felt a little tired.
Tomorrow morning, he would have to rush to Ji Province, so Gao Yang simply stayed in the office overnight.
I put together four chairs, just lie down and cover myself with a coat.
The office is very heated, with the temperature approaching 30 degrees. When there are many people working during the day, the air conditioner is turned on to cool down the air. Some people even sit in the office wearing single clothes.
On November 20, Saturday, in a daze, Gao Yang was woken up by the ringtone of his cell phone. It was a call from Chen Xiaoyu of Lianhe Media, saying that he was driving over and would arrive in 10 minutes.
Gao Yang asked Chen Xiaoyu to wait across the street, hung up the phone, and looked at the time, 6:50 in the morning.
Gao Yang went to the bathroom and washed his face with cold water, then knocked on the door of the duty room and asked the old man Zhang who was keeping watch to open the door.
I went downstairs and rushed to the other side of the street. Chen Xiaoyu had already arrived in a Jetta.
Gao Yang walked over and took a look, and it turned out that the driver was Lu Yonggang.
After getting on the bus, Chen Xiaoyu handed Gao Yang a bag of steamed buns and a glass of soy milk: "Sorry, I bought them from a roadside stall, so I have to make do with them."
Gao Yang smiled: "No need to be polite, it's all for work."
After 9 o'clock in the morning, I rushed to Baoding and interviewed first an integrator and then a dealer with a store. Gao Yang recorded the key points in writing and also used an interviewer to record the entire process.
Lu Yonggang brought a camera and took some photos, while Chen Xiaoyu provided services to Gao Yang.
The interview went relatively smoothly, and Gao Yang also mastered the material he needed.
We had dinner in Baoding at noon and then headed to Langfang.
Lu Yonggang drove the car and talked to Gao Yang: "Thank you for traveling so far and working overtime on weekends."
Gao Yang said: "Don't you also work overtime? You are all working as workers to make a living."
Lu Yonggang laughed: "Yes, they are all working as workers to make a living."
Along the way, the three of them got to know each other well. Lu Yonggang is from Jin Province and Chen Xiaoyu is from Hunan Province. They are all members of the Beipiao clan and share a common language.
This car does not belong to Lu Yonggang, it is their company's car.
After leaving the city, Gao Yang saw that Lu Yonggang was a little tired, so he asked him to drive for a while.
Lu Yonggang didn't know that Gao Yang didn't have a driver's license. When he saw Gao Yang's actions, he knew he was an experienced driver.
Gao Yang drove nearly 100 kilometers on the highway. When he was about to get off the highway, he stopped again and let Lu Yonggang drive.
After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, I successfully interviewed a dealer in Langfang and returned to the capital without stopping. Lu Yonggang and Chen Xiaoyu sent Gao Yang back to the office and had dinner with Gao Yang nearby.
Gao Yang worked overtime until after 11 p.m. and rushed out two manuscripts, totaling just over 6,000 words.
I woke up on Sunday morning and hurried into the city again. By three o'clock in the afternoon, I had four manuscripts, totaling just over 12,000 words. I rushed them out and checked and revised the entire text. In the end, Gao Yang felt that it was good and worthy of the 500 yuan remuneration for 1,000 words.
It was originally planned to be a 2,500-word article, not because Gao Yang wanted to fill it in, but because the interview content was relatively solid and somewhat insightful, and the businessmen’s analysis of the city and county-level markets was also quite in-depth.
Gao Yang sent an email to Chen Xiaoyu and then called to inform him.
Then, I rode my bicycle and went back to the dormitory, where I started to wash clothes and tidy up the messy house.
In the evening, Gao Yang took a hot bath and got into bed early to sleep.
On Monday afternoon, the newspaper office held the last mobilization meeting for the channel forum. The CEO and other leaders who came from the headquarters were already in place.
As soon as the meeting ended, Gao Yang received a call from Lu Yonggang:
"Gao Yang, the manuscript has been approved, and the client agrees with it very much. Thank you. The client has cut it a little, and there are still 11,500 words, so we will calculate it as 12,000 words. Xiaoyu will send your manuscript fee tomorrow morning."
Gao Yang smiled and said: "Okay, thank you."
Over the weekend, Gao Yang was exhausted even from interviewing and writing.
However, considering the 6,000 yuan remuneration, it is really worth it.
