Chapter 103 Ms. Chu’s Invitation
Lan Jieying reached out and took the novel that Xu Xiaoming had put down, and started reading it quickly. It's a pity that her cultural level is not high and she couldn't stand it after watching it for a few times.
Seeing this, Liu Hongmin couldn't help but shake his head. Lan Jieying's biggest shortcoming is not that he is uneducated, but that he is unwilling to learn.
After becoming famous, she had many opportunities to learn, but she did not cherish them.
Lan Jieying didn't know what Liu Hongmin was thinking, so she put down the novel, "I really don't understand how you cultural people can make money by writing some words."
Xu Xiaoming looked at the two of them. , shook his head slightly, obviously not optimistic about the future of the two of them. The two of them are not on the same cultural level at all, and they are in different places, so it is difficult for them to stay together for a long time.
The next day, Xu Xiaoming flew back to Xiangjiang with the crew.
Liu Hongmin confirmed that "The Devotion of Suspect X" was good and made the final revisions.
As graduation approaches, students begin to pay attention to which unit they will be assigned to. Only Liu Hongmin remained calm. In his current situation, he had lost the chance of distribution.
However, he did not expect that Professor Tao actually called him.
"Professor, is there something wrong with the paper?"
Professor Tao: "No, it's your wife who asked you to come home for dinner."
"Master's wife?" Liu Hongmin was stunned for a moment. , he met Ms. Chu and was said to work in the cultural department.
"Do you have anything to do with me, Master?"
"It's about your work."
"Work?" Liu Hongmin was stunned, I still have a job opportunity?
In the evening, Liu Hongmin came to the door carrying two bottles of wine.
Ms. Chu opened the door, and when she saw the wine, she immediately tapped him with her hand, "You've made the old man so naughty."
Liu Hongmin immediately apologized and smiled, "This is a good thing. ! Madam, if the professor is so naughty, he drinks less.”
“You are the only one who is unreasonable!”
Ms. Chu smiled and put him in.
After entering the door, Liu Hongmin and Professor Tao winked at each other, and Professor Tao gave a thumbs up.
"Stop gesticulating and come over to eat quickly." Ms. Chu went to the kitchen to serve the food and warned: "You can only have one drink."
"One drink! One drink!"
Professor Tao quickly agreed, signaled Liu Hongmin to open the wine, and then followed him into the kitchen.
Liu Hongmin poured the wine, and Professor Tao and Ms. Chu brought the dishes.
"Sit down!" Professor Tao said enthusiastically: "Take a sip first."
Liu Hongmin quickly raised his glass and took a sip with Professor Tao.
Ms. Chu glanced at Professor Tao sideways, "Eat a few more bites of food, I have something to do with Hongmin!"
Liu Hongmin immediately asked: "Teacher, I heard the professor said you are looking for Is it about my work?”
"That's right!" Ms. Chu said: "You should know that I work in the cultural department. The international situation has been very good recently. Xiyuan has decided to conduct cultural exchanges with many countries, so our unit wants to recruit some graduates with such experience. Just you I'm very familiar with Xiangjiang, so I want you to work in our company." Liu Hongmin: "I own a company in Xiangjiang, so I'm afraid I can't join the company, right?"
Chu The lady nodded, "It's true that you can't enter the unit, but we don't plan to let you enter the unit?"
"Huh?" Liu Hongmin was stunned for a moment, "Mrs., what does this... mean?"
>Ms. Chu said with a smile: "Our unit's recruitment quota for this year is already full, and I don't have a quota for you. What I mean is that you can register in our unit without taking up the quota of regular employees."
“Just...temporary workers?”
Liu Hongmin blinked, does this exist now?
Ms. Chu thought for a while and said, "Absolutely, this position is indeed temporary."
Professor Tao couldn't stand it anymore, "What does your company think? It wants people to work. I won’t even give him a formal position.”
Ms. Chu glared at him, “Don’t interrupt!”
She looked at Liu Hongmin and said, "Well, there is an exchange event now, and we have temporarily invited some people who have exchanges with foreign countries to act as consultants."
Liu Hongmin suddenly realized that there would be no problem if he became a consultant. . However, "Mrs., it's a bit inappropriate for me to be a consultant, isn't it?"
Ms. Chu said with a smile: "Now are you being humble? Why weren't you more humble when you went to Hong Kong to open a film company?" "
"Don't worry! None of the other consultants know Xiangjiang as well as you, but they have some reputations in various aspects. We have to invite them to act as facades. Therefore, among these consultants, there are only young people like you. , I’m the one doing the work.”
“My wife said so, of course I have no problem.”
When Ms. Chu heard this, she immediately said: “It’s not like I’m asking you to help me in vain. , If you perform well this time, you might really have a chance to work in a department."
Professor Tao said disdainfully: "Pull him down! You can compare to this kid by just writing a novel. Your lifetime income."
Ms. Chu glanced at him, "Can't Hongmin have any other pursuits besides money?"
Professor Tao wanted to continue talking, and Liu Hongmin quickly said: "My wife is right, you have to pursue something in life."
Hearing this, Ms. Chu said to Professor Tao proudly, as if she had won a battle: "Do you think everyone is like you? , stay in the pile of books all day long, and do knowledge all your life? ”
Professor Tao was speechless, and finally swallowed what he wanted to say.
Actually, Professor Tao and Ms. Chu had already argued before Liu Hongmin came. Professor Tao regards Liu Hongmin as his favorite disciple and wants Liu Hongmin to study history with him for the rest of his life. In his opinion, dealing with history books is much easier than dealing with people, and he will not be easily involved in traps.
Ms. Chu didn’t think so. She could tell from Liu Hongmin’s restlessness that Liu Hongmin was a person with lofty ambitions. It is not Liu Hongmin's character to be entrenched in history books all year round. Facts have also proved that Liu Hongmin is not someone who can settle down and do research. Otherwise, his research on the collection of books at home would not have been all done by others.
The two couldn't argue, so they decided to let Liu Hongmin make his own choice.
As a result, just as Ms. Chu imagined, Liu Hongmin decided to enter officialdom. However, I don’t know if he will do something wrong again this time.
Liu Hongmin did not know these things. After returning, he revised the manuscript of "The Devotion of Suspect X" and immediately went to the cultural department to report it.
This exchange was initiated by Sanlian Publishing House, and dozens of publishing houses, TV stations and newspapers in Hong Kong participated. Hundreds of writers and scholars from the mainland were invited to Hong Kong for cultural exchanges.
The cultural department has established an advisory group in order to carry out this exchange well, strengthen the connection between the two places, and lay a solid foundation for the subsequent Sino-British negotiations.
After Liu Hongmin completed the entry procedures, Ms. Chu took him to meet with the advisory group. These people are all celebrities in the cultural world, including writers and scholars, and there are also young people among them. Many of them are known to Liu Hongmin, such as Chen Jiangong.
