Chapter 457 True Love in Adversity
(four in one)

"say what?"

Knowing that the president came to visit specially, he seemed to have a warm current in his heart.

However, disappointment came again.

"He said, you don't need to go to clubs anymore."

Dr. Jiang pursed his lips in embarrassment, fearing that he would faint again from the blow, carefully trying to figure out his expression.

Lu Bin's eyes dimmed suddenly, and his heart felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten gall by mistake.

Alas, I am a street rat now, everyone shouts and beats me, and I have discredited the society, so naturally I will not be wanted again.

Those little friends from the comic club...

Why don't you believe me?
Could it be that the friendship of this semester is fake?

"Cough cough..."

Dr. Jiang saw that he was depressed, so he hurriedly broke the silence and changed the subject:

"By the way, Lu, your phone kept ringing while you were in a coma. I didn't want to disturb you, so I turned it off on silent."

She handed the phone back to Lu Bin: "You check the call records, and dial back the important calls."

A student fainted in the cultural education building. For such a big event, Dr. Jiang would naturally ask Lin Mengmeng about the cause and effect.At first, she was just surprised. She didn't expect that there was a famous student writer in the school. But after people called to inquire about the news, she gradually realized that Lu Bin's situation was very bad, and secretly worried about him.

Lu Bin unlocked the combination lock, and the notification bar suddenly showed that there were 25 missed calls.

Director Zhou Ling called three times, and the editor "Peanut" called two times, as well as the landline number of the operation department of Aiyue Company. The rest are all unknown numbers with unknown sources. It is not ruled out that someone wants to harass and intimidate him.

He never dared to call an unknown number; he was not familiar with the company's operation department. In the end, he tremblingly called Zhou Ling, whom he trusted the most.

"Thank God, you finally contacted me." Zhou Ling picked up the phone, and the first sentence smelled like gunpowder.

Lu Bin's heart sank, and he apologized first: "I'm sorry Mr. Zhou, I have caused you trouble."

"I'm fine. Your editor-in-chief, Peanut, was dying of anxiety this morning, you know. Tell me, what's going on with those rumors on the Internet? Do you have any doubts?"

Since Zhou Ling said it was a "rumor", it proves that he never believed that he would plagiarize from the very beginning.He is worthy of being a "Raindrop" with a poisonous tongue. When it is time to scold people, he is unambiguous when it is time to distinguish right from wrong.Lu Bin's eyes were sour, and he replied hoarsely:
"Thank you for trusting me. The truth is exactly what you think. I don't have a clue. The news I just found out this morning has been posted on the campus website."

On the other end of the phone, there was a click of tongue, and Lu Bin could imagine Zhou Ling frowning, rubbing his temples, and puffing out a cigarette.It seems that even Mr. Zhou finds this a bit troublesome.

Lu Bin couldn't help but grabbed the quilt.

"Don't panic, the company has arranged an emergency team to deal with the aftermath, and is collecting information to refute the rumors spread on the Internet. As far as I know, the information on the 'color palette' is very far-fetched, and the meaning of forgery and frame-up is very heavy, so the company does not I will take your novel off the shelf, let alone pursue the responsibility for breach of contract. It’s just—”

Zhou Ling drank his saliva and continued: "The strange thing is that after the incident, the editor-in-chief, knowing that you were framed, didn't immediately issue a correction statement through the company's channels to explain everything to the public. You You know, I'm the content director now, and it's inconvenient to meddle in the scope of work of the editor-in-chief."

"I understand, I understand." Lu Bin nodded his head, his gratitude was beyond words: "I accept your kindness."

"Don't be happy just now." Zhou Ling then said:

"As I said, the company has not issued a statement, which means that you are still carrying the blame. Let me explain to you first, the IP film and television drama project of "Funeral Flower Talisman" that was originally negotiated, because the investor heard the news and withdrew the investment, It has been confirmed to be stranded. In addition, the manga of the same name as "Seven Jue of Floating Life", which was originally scheduled to be published, is now out of print. Have you opened the iRead app? Have you read the book review section?"

Lu Bin's mind was in a mess, and he said in a low voice: "No, I dare not look at it."

"Well, I also advise you not to watch it for the time being."

Mr. Zhou didn't say the reason, but how could Lu Bin not know?Constant bad reviews and low ratings are trivial matters. I am afraid that the number of rewards and subscriptions both plummeted, and the data fluctuated quite a lot.

"Why didn't the editor-in-chief help me..." Lu Bin was a little annoyed, but as soon as he spoke, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted:
"I see, I was run over by Zhang Naming!"

Zhang Naming, a veteran employee of Aiyue, is no longer the editor-in-chief because his relationship with Ji Ru was exposed.

He asked eagerly, "Which department is Zhang Naming in now?"

Zhou Ling replied with some hesitation: "The Operations Department."

That's right!Operations!Specialized in the extension of copyright development projects for works!About Lu Jiuye's work project, Huang is Huang here!

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Zhang Naming is not the editor-in-chief, at least he has sat in that position for so long, and his contacts are well-connected. As long as he comes forward, he will whisper to the current editor-in-chief, and the correction statement will not be issued for a long time , it can be understood.

This is to hack me!Lu Bin felt deep malice.As for why a great author was suddenly blackmailed, there was only one reason.

"Lu Bin, what do you mean by saying that?" Zhou Ling couldn't figure out why, so he asked.

I wanted to rot that matter in my stomach, but now I have to say it——

"Mr. Zhou, I... I accidentally offended Zhang Naming. I accidentally revealed his relationship with Ji Ru to the reporter... I have never dared to tell you because I was afraid of causing trouble..."

On the other side of the phone, Zhou Ling suddenly slammed the table: "Balm! I just said, why is this so strange! But——"

He changed his voice: "It's not right. Even so, Zhang Naming won't want to kill you. I know that guy. He has a lot of heart but little courage. At most, he will only add insult to injury."

Lu Bin sighed deeply. "What if he was the one who made trouble, and Ji Ru was the one who killed them all?" The chaos in his mind had disappeared, and his eyes were clear.

Recalling Nie Wushuang's words - "Be careful with that Ji Ru, she is very scheming."

No matter whether Ji Ru has scheming or not, she always has the motive and means to pour dirty water on him.

It seems that the enemy is coming fiercely. I am afraid that they are all plotting this matter during the Spring Festival, right?
Zhou Ling was stunned for a few seconds, finally sorted out the clues, and was even more annoyed: "So this time, my family slapped my family in the face? I'll fuck it, a good project, it's just so dirty. No Made money? It's terrible."

"Speaking of which, I slapped her face first." Lu Bin felt bitter, thinking it would be better to ask Nie Wushuang for a letter, so he asked:

"Do you have reporter Nie Wushuang's phone number here?"

"Nie Wushuang? Who, I don't know."

"It's the beautiful reporter from Weilan Writing Network. The one with... the more prominent figure..."

Only then did Zhou Ling remember: "Oh! You are talking about her! I know, that little girl. She interviewed me and left a phone number, and she should still be in the notebook. In this way, I will put her number when I find it. send you."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you, let me confirm with her, she has a lot of news."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Bin's face froze, he thought for a while, and dialed "Peanut" again.

The "Peanut" in this room picked up the phone, and without waiting for him to speak, he shouted like a cannonball: "Oh, my little ancestor, you have ignored me! I don't know you yet? You can hide for a while, but you can't hide for a lifetime Ah! You actually disappeared while playing with me??"

The friendship between "Peanut" and Lu Jiuye, the editor-in-chief, was mostly limited to QQ, and they didn't know each other very well, so his first reaction was that Lu Jiuye was scared by the plagiarism incident and hid.

Lu Bin didn't bother to play tricks on him, and expressed his feelings directly: "Peanut, let me tell you the truth, I didn't copy it. Believe it or not, you can do whatever you want."

"Peanut" has obviously learned about the progress of the emergency team from internal channels, and has no doubts about his words: "Of course I believe you! Don't worry, if this matter is handled properly, it may also have a certain publicity effect. "

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, people may not remember the name of the original author, but whoever has a history of plagiarism is familiar, which is really ironic.

Lu Bin didn't feel that these words comforted him at all, and asked with a dull expression: "What did you ask me for before?"

"I want to ask you." "Peanut" said in a flattering tone, but also a little coaxing: "Will you continue to update "Seven Jue of Floating Life"?"

"Of course. I'm a long-term author. I start a new book and finish it."

"That's good. Don't worry, the recommended opportunities you should have will be given to you, and the publicity will not be reduced. Oh, by the way, Jiu Ye, next month the company will have a webcast event, and will invite a group of freshmen It will be a great opportunity for the author to interact with readers on behalf of the Great God, and there will be a lot of traffic, so do you want to participate?"

According to the idea of ​​"Peanut", it is definitely hoped that Lu Jiuye, a "topic character", can show up, drive traffic, and also clarify the facts on the spot and save readers. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?Saving Lu Jiuye saved himself to a certain extent.After all, editors are all capable of memorizing sales tasks, and having one more master writer under their command can increase their income, and their performance can be completed earlier.

This is his idea.Lu Bin was a little worried.

I am on the cusp of the storm, and countless eyes are staring at him. There are many people who don't understand or scold him. At this time, going to participate in live broadcast activities and interact with readers, will I be embarrassed?
Nao is for sure, the key is, will there be a big embarrassment?How to restore the situation after embarrassment?
Go, be slandered, scolded, thrown eggs.

If you don't go, you won't prove your innocence, you will be ridiculed, and you will shrink your head.

"Peanut" doesn't know Lu Bin's embarrassment, and is still persuading: "Go, go, it's okay, I will help you out when the time comes. The live broadcast event is only two hours, Saturday, so don't delay your study. Jiu Ye, you Make a decision quickly, I have to submit the list before I get off work in the afternoon, and the editor-in-chief is in a hurry."

After thinking about it, Lu Bin still felt that hiding was useless.The classmates in the school already knew that he was Lu Jiuye. If he didn't clarify and continued, his school life in the future would be very difficult.

He tightened his throat and choked out the words: "Okay, I'll go."

After dismissing "Peanut", another strange call came in. He hesitated for a while, and mustered up the courage to answer it, only to realize that it was Nie Wushuang calling.

"Jiu Ye, Director Zhou has already told me the general situation." Nie Wushuang said very firmly: "I have already asked someone to inquire about this plagiarism incident, it was Ji Ru who ordered someone to trip you up. of."

Lu Bin was discussing with her when Lin Mengmeng came back from eating.

Walking into the infirmary with her were He Youyi, You Diyuan, Yin Xia, Leng Yuqi, and Huo Yingcan.

The small infirmary seemed crowded with so many visitors.

Lin Mengmeng didn't interrupt Lu Bin's phone call, but shook the fragrant lunch box in front of his nose, hinting him to stop busy and eat quickly.

Jiang Nanyu got up and made a seat for her: "Mengmeng, since you are all here, I'll go have a meal first."

Lin Mengmeng came to her senses, and hurriedly said, "No problem, Doctor Jiang, go quickly, I'm here."

When Lu Bin hung up the phone, Lin Mengmeng snatched his mobile phone into her hands, pouted and ordered:
"Xiao Bin, look at you, the phone case is hot! You are not allowed to answer the phone anymore, you have to eat now."

"Okay, as ordered." Lu Bin showed a gentle smile and took apart the disposable chopsticks.

On the way here, Lin Mengmeng had already reminded everyone to care about Lu Bin and trust him.

These words are superfluous, because the people who came thought that Lu Bin would not do such dirty things as plagiarism.

He Youyi bought a bag of fruit for him, helped him pick up the pillow and put it behind his back, and said directly: "Lu Bin, a disaster is imminent, brother, I support you."

Not to be outdone, You Diyuan said, "I support you too!" Yin Xia at the side echoed him, nodding heavily.

Huo Shao, who was full of hostility towards Lu Bin before, firmly stood by his side after falling in love with Leng Yuqi: "I've read your book, so I naturally believe you."

He has long forgotten how he belittled Lu Jiuye's novels.

As a true fanatical book fan, Leng Yuqi clenched her fists and cheered her up: "I've already gone to your book review area to post, calling on true fans to unite and resist the abuse of black fans. Deer Jiuye, everything will be fine, you have to Take a closer look, there are a lot of people who are popular."

Looking at this pair of concerned eyes and listening to these heartwarming words, Lu Bin's nose was sour. He suppressed the emotion and raised his smiling face:
"Thank you...thank you..."

A friend in adversity sees the truth, besides being grateful, I really don’t know what else to say.It is a great blessing in life to have such a group of loyal friends.

Speaking of loyalty, Zhuang Shi's handsome appearance suddenly appeared in Lu Bin's mind.

He...does he know about this?

I haven't contacted him for a long time, and I don't know what he will think?
The corners of Lu Bin's raised lips showed an imperceptible astringency.
