Ji Hu turned his back to him, looked directly at Lu Menglin, and said quickly: "After that guy became famous, he once insisted on printing a set of books that had questionable content and could not be sold, but I didn't agree to it. Let's

After the collapse of the Society, this is not the first time that he has added insult to injury."

Seeing that Lu Menglin didn't say anything, Ji Hu quickly said: "Ignore him! Just bark like a wild dog! He won't have to make trouble when the conference officially starts. I have to protect you, we just won't give up our seats! I support you.

live!"

Seeing Ji Hu pretending to be dead and ignoring him, Master Xiao Wang had no choice but to make use of the topic. He raised his voice again and said loudly: "Some people are too unconscious and don't have the quality! Dominating the position of the guest and keeping silent, this kind of

The behavior is so bad!”

"Security, where is the security? There is someone here who is occupying the guest position and refuses to move. Is there no one to care about it?" Master Xiao Wang shouted.

The guests all around turned their heads, watching the two sides fight as if they were watching a good show.

Especially those who knew the cause and effect of the two parties could not help but shake their heads secretly, thinking that Master Xiao Wang was really aggressive and too bullying.

He was once a rising local literary star trained by the Hainan Photography and Art Publishing House, but ended up signing a contract with a big publishing house in the north. He fell in love with a big publishing house in the north, broke the contract midway, and the trouble was not pleasant. In addition, Hainan was in trouble, and he became even more unscrupulous.

Already.

In fact, many people around him recognize Ji Hu. He is indeed one of the vice-presidents of Hainan Photography and Art Publishing House. He has a business background and has been in the publishing circle for decades. He has strong connections. Unfortunately, he was unlucky and his pictures were dismissed.

Little insult.

Soon, several staff members saw a dispute at the guest table and immediately gathered around.

Anyone present who sees Lu Menglin's appearance will subconsciously think that he is a student brought by Ji Hu. Originally, this kind of thing is commonplace and understandable, but if Master Xiao Wang insists on looking for trouble, then he just

I can handle official business according to the rules.

By this time, Ji Hu himself was a little nervous, feeling very sorry for the little brother next to him.

He originally had good intentions and brought people in to sit in a good seat, but he met this mad dog and refused to let go. But he couldn't let Lu Menglin leave again! So he had no choice but to hold on, hoping that the conference would start soon.

Two staff members came forward, both looking embarrassed. One of them whispered to Ji Hu and Lu Menglin: "I'm sorry! This is a guest seat. Guests not invited by our association, please sit at the back."

Ji Hu's face turned blue. He wanted to puff up his chest and say, I brought this guy!

However, this is against the rules!

If it were back when Hainan Photography and Art Publishing House was at its peak, Lao Ji would always walk sideways in any meeting. Who would dare to make irresponsible remarks?

"Forget it, I'll go to the back with you! This chair is too small and it'll be awkward to sit on!" Ji Hu gritted his teeth, stood up and said.

Many people in the guest seats looked at this scene, seeing how embarrassed Ji Hu was, and shook their heads secretly.

But no one would offend the popular Master Xiao Wang for Ji Hu, not to mention that he still followed the rules, and this is the cruelty of the business world.

Master Xiao Wang was still standing, with a triumphant smile on his face.

He is such a careless villain who always wants to take revenge. As long as he can make Ji Hu look bad and avenge himself, he doesn't care what others think of him!

At this moment, Lu Menglin did not stand up. Instead, in front of everyone, he slowly took out a guest card from his pocket and silently placed it on the table.

When the two staff members saw that what they took out was indeed a guest card, they immediately backed away.

Who wants to offend someone without any reason! Now that someone has a certificate, it means they are in compliance with the rules. Who cares how old he is!

When Ji Hu saw this guest card, his old face immediately burst into laughter.

Master Xiao Wang also stared at the crumpled guest card.

"This, this is so unscientific! His certificate is fake! It must be fake! Or he stole someone else's guest certificate! Who is going to check it? Check it!" Master Xiao Wang was furious and shouted repeatedly.

.

Although he was yelling, no one would do such a thankless job without being full.

"Holy shit! Don't go too far! I've been putting up with you for a long time! If you push me harder, I'll make you an idiot!" Ji Hu, the black-faced uncle, was really anxious. He stood up and cursed loudly.

Before, he was still holding on to a bit of luck, thinking that Master Xiao Wang might be able to reminisce about his old friendship, and as long as he let him vent his anger, he might be able to help the publishing house.

But now he can see clearly that this idiot is too narrow-minded and doesn't even let go of irrelevant bystanders. He can't expect the other party to be kind at all.

Ji Hu pointed at his nose and started scolding, which actually calmed down Master Xiao Wang.

After all, this dark-faced burly man is also considered to be a big man with a big waist and a big waist. If he really wants to do something in public, he will definitely be the one who suffers.

It’s already time for the conference to officially start, but for some reason, the host hasn’t announced the start of the conference.

And careful people have discovered that on the rostrum directly below, only five of the six heavyweight guests are present, and no one has sat in the last seat on the right.

The host, Lu Feng, stood beside the podium on the left side of the rostrum, already sweating profusely.

"What's going on? What's going on! Hasn't Mr. Tang arrived yet? Why didn't anyone follow up on this matter before! Didn't I tell you to make sure that all the guests on the stage are here?" Lu Feng growled at the assistant below.

road.

The female assistant was scolded so much that she didn't even dare to raise her head, and she could only act submissively.

"Why are you still standing there? Go find someone to confirm where Mr. Tang is! If he can't come, let Hu Yiming find someone to come on stage immediately to support him! Can't the meeting be held?" Lu Feng glared and cursed.

The female assistant was so frightened that she hurriedly rushed towards the workbench.

Soon, Hu Yiming, the editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction World" magazine, hurried to the door, spoke to someone for a few words, and then stepped back.

After returning to the conference hall, Editor Hu was equally anxious and sweating profusely.

I just received news that Mr. Tang, the heavyweight guest who was originally going to attend this conference, suffered a temporary attack of cardiovascular disease and was diverted to the hospital midway.

Seeing that the opening time of this meeting cannot be postponed any longer, what's the matter if there is one person missing on the rostrum?

The female assistant on the side was also anxious, and came up with random ideas: "It's too late, Editor Hu, how about you come up? You go up and give me a head first."

Editor-in-chief Hu also had a sudden illness and sought medical treatment. He had no choice but to take a big step and go straight to the podium.

But before he could take the stage, he just reached the bottom. When he looked up, he happened to look at Minister Xu who was sitting in the middle of the podium.

The latter's majestic and powerful eyes seemed to be silently condemning something, which made Editor Hu react immediately.

"No! I can't go up! If I go up rashly and be on an equal footing with the leaders, it will leave such a bad impression!"

However, the scheduled opening time of the conference has already passed. Didn't you see that the host Lu Feng on the stage was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot?

Just at this moment, Editor Hu caught a glimpse of Ji Hu who was arguing with Master Xiao Wang, and then he also saw Lu Menglin, who was sitting next to Ji Hu, motionless as a mountain.

"Huh? This guy seems to be okay!" Several thoughts quickly flashed through Editor Hu's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more reliable he felt.

At this juncture, it is not appropriate to call anyone to come forward. Those old guys are all slippery and are certainly not willing to take the risk of saving the situation.

On the contrary, this author Xiao Lu is very suitable. He is young and can be used as a topical figure. Putting him on it is exactly in line with the theme of this conference, "We are young in the era of science fiction."

Moreover, Editor Hu had a vague idea in his mind that the author Xiao Lu was young and should be easy to talk to. Moreover, his aura was very stable, so there was no need to worry about making mistakes.

It was too late, but it was soon! Editor Hu took a big step and arrived at the guest area under the stage in a few seconds, in front of Master Ji Hu and Xiao Wang.

Of course, Ji Hu and Master Xiao Wang both recognized the editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction World". They were both startled at the same time. They thought they would be in trouble if they alerted editor-in-chief Hu.

Unexpectedly, after Editor Hu rushed down, he ignored the dispute between the two and squatted directly in front of Lu Menglin without batting an eyelid.

"Xiao Lu, brother Xiao Lu! Help save the day. Come up with me and sit on the rostrum. We will just set you up as a model for the younger generation of writers." Editor-in-chief Hu Da opened his mouth when the matter came to a close.

Lu Menglin was naturally stunned for a moment. He first looked at the people on the rostrum. They were either old men who seemed to be highly respected, or officials who were pot-bellied and not angry. What would happen if they went up on their own?

Seeing Lu Menglin's hesitation, Editor Hu quickly said: "Help! The important guest I booked earlier fell ill on the road. He really can't come, and it's not convenient for others to go up. Anyway, not many people know you here, so just help me.

This time, okay? I will definitely return this favor to you in the future!"

Seeing that everyone had already begged to this point, Lu Menglin also knew that the situation was a bit urgent, so he thought that since he was just here to make soy sauce, not many people knew him, so it would be okay to help him take the blame.

"Okay! What should I do?" Lu Menglin nodded.

Editor Hu felt as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and he felt instantly at ease.

"No, no! I'll lead you up, just sit down. Lu Feng will definitely be able to take care of the other things." Editor Hu said quickly.

While talking, Editor Hu personally took Lu Menglin's little hand and sent him to the podium step by step.

Later Lu Menglin often went on stage to talk about products and conduct road shows. He was not afraid of the atmosphere on stage and sat on the podium with ease.
