She was originally going to take the initiative to greet Mr. Wang, but unexpectedly, Mr. Wang spoke first before she opened her mouth.

Sun Xue responded enthusiastically, "Mr. Wang, it's me, Xiao Sun."

"Little Sun? Which little grandson?"

Sun Xue hurriedly explained, "It's the little Sun that Vice Mayor Wang introduced to you."

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"Mr. Wang, are you free now? I would like to visit you. It won't take up too much of your time, just half an hour."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Mr. Wang replied calmly, "Okay, come over. I'm discussing cooperation with a friend in the coffee shop."

Sun Xue was overjoyed. She didn't expect that Mr. Wang would agree to meet her so readily.

Before making this call, she was prepared to be rejected...

She immediately took a taxi and rushed to the agreed coffee shop according to the address provided by Mr. Wang.

She was stunned when they met. Sitting opposite Mr. Wang was a top author of the Chinese website.

The reason she knew him was because at the award ceremony of the first online novel competition, the author's novel won the first prize. They took a photo together and had a brief exchange of words.

Mr. Wang waved his hand to signal Sun Xue to take a seat, his attitude still lukewarm.

Sun Xue greeted him enthusiastically, "Hello, Mr. Wang. We have met your friend before. Your surname is Lu, but I forgot your first name."

The man teased, "Writer Sun, if I remember correctly, your name is Sun Xue, right? You are the gold medal winner of the competition, how can you remember little writers like us!"

Sun Xue could hear the sarcasm in the man's tone, and her face immediately turned red.

"So you two know each other! Xiao Lu is a contracted writer of my company. Several of his works have been adapted into movies and TV shows, which have won good reviews from the market. He is a top writer on the Chinese website and ranked fifth on the list of the richest writers in China."

When introducing this writer, Mr. Wang's face was filled with a sense of accomplishment and his eyes were full of admiration.

Sun Xue couldn't help but sigh in her heart that even though her work won the gold medal, in Mr. Wang's eyes, it was worthless.

Sun Xue had no choice but to agree, "Writer Lu is a popular writer on the Chinese Internet, and he is well-known!"

Sun Xue had to admit that it was because Writer Lu met a media company boss like Mr. Wang who developed the copyright of his works to the extreme that he gained huge wealth.

She had read writer Lu's works, but she didn't think his works were much better than her own.

His achievements today are closely related to his creation on a well-known platform and his good fortune in meeting a big boss like Mr. Wang.

"Writer Sun, are you still with your old employer?"

Sun Xue smiled and replied, "Yes, I have been on this platform since I started creating my first work until today."

"Didn't I hear that your platform went bankrupt?"

Sun Xue was surprised by his words. "No! Who told you that?"

"An author who writes historical stories on your platform and goes by the pen name Northwest Wolf told me this. He has now switched to our platform and has a very bad opinion of your old company."

Sun Xue immediately retorted, "Everyone has different opinions. I think our old club is good. I am very grateful. It is my old club that has made me who I am today."

Writer Lu shook his head and said, “Writer Sun, to be honest, there is no comparison between small platforms and big platforms.

I really can’t praise the works on small platforms. I can’t stand it. The income is also a world away. Just like you, although you are a top author supported by the platform, to be honest, your income is not even in the top 20 in our platform. This is the gap...”

Sun Xue frowned at these words. She felt that the writer was hiding something, and his tone was full of sarcasm and arrogance.

What do you mean the works on small platforms are unwatchable? What do you mean she is a top author who is supported by the platform?

Sun Xue cursed in her heart, at least I won the gold medal in the competition. You are so arrogant and so outstanding, why did you only get the first prize?

If it weren’t for the platform that made you successful, and if you hadn’t met a big boss like Mr. Wang, how could you have achieved what you have today?

"Xiao Sun, if you can't make it in your old company, it might be a wise thing to switch to the Chinese website where Xiao Lu works as soon as possible.

If you have this idea, you can ask Xiao Lu to introduce you. He is quite influential on the Chinese Internet.... In my opinion, it is only a matter of time before your old company closes down."

But Mr. Wang joined in the fun and teased her, which made her speechless!

Sun Xue could only smile politely, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you, Writer Lu, I have no intention of leaving for the time being."

"By the way, Xiao Sun, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Faced with Mr. Wang's question, she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The person sitting opposite her was her colleague, and he was speaking so arrogantly. If she told him her true thoughts about visiting Mr. Wang, and was rejected by Mr. Wang, she would immediately be mocked by Writer Lu again...

"Mr. Wang, it's nothing, I just want to thank you. I'm honored to meet an industry leader like you. I brought you a small gift, I hope you can accept it."

President Wang glanced at the generous gift prepared by Sun Xue and showed no interest at all. "Xiao Sun, you are too polite. You also know that your Deputy Mayor Wang and I are old classmates. You can take the gift away later!"

Sun Xue thought Mr. Wang was just being polite, so she insisted, "Mr. Wang, this is not an expensive gift, it's just a little thought from me..."

Unexpectedly, Writer Lu on the side said with disdain, "Writer Sun, I know Mr. Wang. He can't bear to let you spend this money. After all, it's not easy for you to earn money.

He takes your gift home and puts it away carelessly, and it will soon be covered with dust..."

Sun Xue could tell that Writer Lu sounded like he was thinking about her, but in fact he was mocking her for giving a gift that was not worth mentioning at all...

"Xiao Sun, just take it away." Mr. Wang replied in a light tone.

Sun Xue's face was full of embarrassment...

She suddenly felt that she seemed a little redundant...

Maybe it would be wise to leave immediately.

"Boss Wang, Writer Lu, you guys take your time chatting. I'll take my leave now."

Sun Xue stood up and smiled awkwardly.

"Writer Sun, please think carefully about writing on my platform. If you come, I will ask my boss for the best benefits for you. It won't be a problem for you to earn hundreds of thousands more every year."

When saying this, Writer Lu had a haughty look on his face.

Sun Xue politely replied, "Thank you, Writer Lu, I don't think that's necessary!"

She picked up the gift and walked out of the café without looking back...

She could feel the two people behind her pointing and talking at her, and perhaps even laughing mockingly...

She was full of expectations when she came, but she didn't expect to be teased by the two...

Especially writer Lu, he is too arrogant in his words!

"What's there to be so arrogant about? One day, I will make you change your stubborn opinion!" Sun Xue swore secretly in her heart.
