Chapter 27: Dana
There are no impermeable walls in this world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the first day of school at Atlantis University, the news of the arrest of Lin Guodong, deputy secretary of the party committee of the university, has spread all over Atlantis University, which is definitely heavy news, especially Li Xiaoling, an English major who has a leg with Lin Guodong, has also been arrested.
It was against this background that Gu Bei went to the office of Liu Hongda, president of Atlantis University.
Liu Hongda is an old man in his fifties, short stature, sparse hair, wearing a Mao suit, his eyes are bright, he looks extremely capable and energetic, he was not particularly surprised to see Gu Bei who walked in.
Among the freshmen of Atlantis University, Gu Bei was one of the leaders and founded the magazine "Soloists", especially with the increasing circulation of this magazine across the country, he did a good job of literary and artistic propaganda for Atlantis University. The current "Soloist" can be called a business card of Atlantis University, and it is an important embodiment of Atlantis University's soft power.
It was difficult for Liu Hongda, such a student, to think about it or not, so he beckoned Gu Bei to sit on the sofa and asked him what was the matter.
Gu Bei said: "Principal Liu, there are two main problems that I want you to help me solve, one is that the staff of the magazine has expanded to more than 30 people, and the magazine can solve it by itself in terms of hardware equipment, but the office space is a little small, and I hope that the school can choose a more open office location." ”
Liu Hongda waved his hand: "This is a trivial matter, wait a minute, I will let the school office management personnel coordinate and help you solve it as soon as possible." ”
"Thank you, principal, the second thing is that I want to bid for the Bayi Road Cultural Column project." Gu Bei handed the document in his hand to Liu Hongda: "This is the bidding document of the "Soloist" magazine bidding for the cultural column project. ”
Liu Hongda took the bid and did not rush to read it.
He knew about the Bayi Road Cultural Column project, Lin Guodong was very enthusiastic about this project before, and now Lin Guodong has fallen off the horse, Liu Hongda even received the rumor that Lin Guodong's fall is related to Gu Bei, and now Gu Bei is running over to receive this project, which confirms the authenticity of this rumor from the side.
Liu Hongda is not disgusted with Gu Bei's approach, in the construction and management of the school, Lin Guodong and him have many disagreements, there are a little contradictory in the open and in the dark, the only thing that gives him a headache is that Lin Guodong's fall has affected the reputation of Xize University, in addition, Lin Guodong's "Xize University Newspaper" bidding for the Bayi Road Cultural Column Project has also been beaten back by the Qingchuan City Propaganda Department, and now Gu Bei is holding the bid of "Soloist" to bid for the Bayi Road Cultural Column Project, which inevitably makes Liu Hongda a little surprised.
You must know that the Bayi Road Cultural Column Project is a landmark project in Qingchuan City, and it can be registered in the city if it is done well, so bidding for the Bayi Road Cultural Column Project is an opportunity to rebuild the credibility of XZAWA. However, it is precisely because of Lin Guodong's fall that Atlantis University has fallen into the whirlpool of public opinion, and it is equally difficult for the "Soloist" affiliated with the Party Committee of Atlantis University to bid for this landmark project of the city government.
Liu Hongda had never met Gu Bei before, but the short contact and Gu Bei's achievements made him believe that Gu Bei was a smart person, Gu Bei should understand the problem here, there is almost no possibility of success in bidding for the cultural column project, so why did Gu Bei know that he couldn't do it?
Liu Hongda held this doubt, picked up the enamel jar, but found that there was no water, he got up and walked to the water dispenser to fill it with tea, returned to the chair, blew off the heat, and took a slight sip before saying: "Your idea is good, but you should know that I have the same effect as if I disagree." ”
Gu Bei said: "President, whether the bid can be successful is another matter, but I think it is better to do it than to do nothing, in addition, it is a pity that this opportunity is wasted, if it succeeds, it will also be a good thing for Atlantis University." ”
Liu Hongda laughed, put his fingers on the crimson tabletop and tapped: "If I agree, what are you going to do?" ”
Gu Bei said: "I don't know at the moment, but I am bound to win." ”

After leaving Liu Hongda's office, Gu Bei found Ma Rulong and took him straight to Yuexiu Culture Media Company.
As "Soloist" has grown bigger and bigger, the magazine has expanded to a team of 36 editors, but fortunately, the market distribution business is in charge of Nishizawa Press, otherwise these people would not have been enough. At present, the "Solo Singer" magazine is mainly responsible for the two core areas of content production and advertising, except for the eight veterans who have followed Gu Bei from the academic department of the student union, the rest of the staff are either seniors at Atlantis University or graduate students.
Compared with the eight veterans who were with Gu Bei at the beginning, the age of this group of people is three or four years older, and the editor-in-chief of the magazine is Li Xiaojing, Li Xiaojing is gentle and quiet by nature, and obviously does not have the ability to manage such a team, fortunately, there is Ma Rulong, this kid can spray and dance very socially, it can be said that he is the backbone of the "Solo Singer" magazine, in addition to the content, the daily management and advertising business of the magazine Gu Bei are all handed over to Ma Rulong.
Ma Rulong is doing well, at least he can hold down the magazine.
Gu Bei also felt that Ma Rulong was a talent, and the platform of "Solo Singer" magazine was too small for him to shine, but he was still young now and needed more experience.
Yuexiu Culture Media Company is located in Yunxi Road New Century Cultural Plaza Building C1 Block 9Q, the environment is very good, the right is the New Century Cultural Square with many shops, the right side is the rippling Qingjiang River, when taking the elevator upstairs, Ma Rulong thought that Yuexiu Media was a big company, but after getting out of the elevator to Yuexiu Media Company, he was disappointed, no company LOGO, no front desk, no decoration, two hundred square meters of office area, twenty or thirty computers, seven or eight employees, Apparently a small company that has just started a business.
Ma Rulong couldn't help but wonder why Gu Bei gave all the advertising channels of "Solo Singer" to such a small company, you must know that "Solo Singer" is a large magazine with a national circulation of up to 400,000 copies, and there are countless merchants who want to advertise in "Solo Singer" with money.
What is even more incomprehensible to him is that in the print advertising agency contract of "Solo Singer" magazine that Gu Bei asked him to draft, there are many concession agreements, such as the general advertising agency must pay 50% of the advertising agency fee in advance according to the number of years when signing the contract, but in this contract, the advertising agency fee is settled on the 15th of the third month after the release of each issue of the magazine, that is to say, Yuexiu Media must first earn money before paying the "Solo Singer" magazine.
Gu Bei saw that Ma Rulong was full of suspicion, he didn't say anything, he was also the first time to come to Yuexiu Media, the company's preliminary work was completed by Zhang Xuebin alone, after all, the funds were tight, and the No. 8 new employee was recruited without decoration.
"Is Mr. Zhang here?" Gu Bei knocked on the doorpost.
The eight employees who were working were all staring at Gu Bei curiously, and one of the chubby long-haired girls stood up: "Have you made an appointment with Mr. Zhang?" ”
Gu Bei smiled: "No." ”
"Gu Bei, you're here." At this time, Zhang Xuebin, who was wearing black-framed glasses, walked out of the office, and when he saw Gu Bei, he immediately clapped his hands and greeted the inexplicable eight new employees: "Everyone get up and introduce, this is my old buddy, Gu Bei Gu, the founder of Yuexiu Media, is one of the best in the industry in terms of advertising design and copywriting." ”
Hearing this, Ma Rulong's jaw almost dropped.
