Salmon is a little far away from Li Jiu's sitting position, but just now, he also saw it in his eyes, and a sense of curiosity rose in his heart, Wen Chou's manuscript has always been received by him, and he has also read some of Wen Chou's first three works, and Li Jiu is different, his favorite is the book "Master Lonely", there was a time when his mantra became "I don't understand is not understand! The gap is the gap", and he was once suspected by his colleagues of habitually pretending.

And that sentence is a classic quote in "The Loneliness of the Master".

Could it be that this killing-based novel is also very good?

With such curiosity in his heart, after Li Jiu sat back in his seat, Salmon made an internal call.

"Li Jiu, did you just tell Lao Zhang about the book "Infinite Killing" I gave you in the morning?"

"Well! That's it! It's so good-looking! It's more classic than Wen Chou's book "The Great Warlords of the Three Kingdoms"! Just, how can you say it? Anyway, you'll know it when you read it, really! I won't lie to you!"

"Oh, then I'll see. ”

Putting down the phone, Salmon pinched the mustache on his chin, and novel editors all have a common urine, that is, no resistance to it.

Anyway, as a receiving editor, he doesn't have much to do every day, so he opened the manuscript in the mailbox and read it slowly.

After reading all the contents, it was already lunch time, and my colleagues had already gone to the cafeteria to eat in twos and threes, and the salmon was still sitting in his seat and seemed to be immersed in the story he had just read, his expression was a little sluggish, and the cigarette between his fingers was about to burn his fingers, and he had not yet noticed it.

At this time, Li Jiu passed by him, saw his expression, and saw the manuscript of "Infinite Killing" on his computer screen, he showed a knowing smile, a little complacent, and thought: It seems that I really have some vision! At first glance, the wonderfulness of this book appeared! No, Brother Yu was also shocked.

"Hey, Brother Yu! It's time for dinner!"

Li Jiu smiled and patted Salmon on the shoulder.

"Oh. ”

Salmon woke up like a dream, so he closed the file, turned off the computer, and when he stood up, he still said to Li Jiu with unfinished thoughts: "The idea is so good! I really don't know how the author came up with this story! It's a genius! It seems that publishing is no problem, I wonder if the editor-in-chief will increase the price for him?"

Li Jiu listened to these words in his ears, as if he was praising him, flutteringly, and said: "Don't worry! The editor-in-chief also went to the cafeteria just now, and I immediately ordered dinner, so I will ask him, and I will sue you as soon as I have news!"

"Good!"

……

When the two arrived at the cafeteria, the editor-in-chief Lao Zhang was eating quietly in a no-man's corner, and Li Jiu hurried up to get a meal and came over.

With a smile of innocence, Li Jiu sat opposite Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang raised his drooping eyelids, he is old, and his spirit is obviously not as good as that of young people, but he has been rolling in this industry all his life, and he has long developed an atmosphere of not being angry and arrogant, so even if he just raised his eyelids, Li Jiu also felt nervous, but at this time, Li Jiu was very confident, and he was still a little proud in his heart, and he thought that the editor-in-chief would definitely praise him, so although he was nervous, he was not afraid.

"Editor-in-Chief, have you read that book of Infinite Killing? How do you feel? Very creative, right? Do you want to do your best to notify the author to sign the contract?"

Li Jiu smiled meaninglessly and asked several questions in one breath.

Lao Zhang's cloudy old eyes looked at him, and when he finished asking for a long time, he coughed twice, wrinkled his thick gray eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "The book you said, I read it, the story is a bit novel, but there are also many problems, for example, in the first episode, there are too few female characters, ** scenes are completely insufficient, and the current market is ...... You should know that a killing essay like that kind of strict sù, even if it is too well written, no one will buy it; also, the setting is too complicated, what are the points? The rewards of the main plot S-level, A-level or something, the rewards of the side plot or something, too much and too complicated, readers who read novels now, are all reading with a relaxed mind, and few people are willing to use their brains to bother; the most important point, he writes scenes of horror movies, and there may be copyright disputes with those film companies, so this book can't be signed! Let him rewrite a mainstream fantasy text! For the sake of his previous three books, which are still quite popular, I can consider publishing them for him!"

Li Jiu was dumbfounded when he heard it, he couldn't believe that these words came out of the mouth of the editor-in-chief, such a classic novel in the eyes of himself and Brother Yu, his old man actually approved it worthless, not only did he not mention the possibility of raising the price, but he even had to refuse the visa?

"Editor-in-Chief! That book is really good......

Li Jiu wanted to work harder, but Lao Zhang was already impatient, and raised his right hand slightly, preventing Li Jiu from continuing.

If the author is humble enough to get another work that meets the needs of the market, I will still give him a chance. ”

After speaking, Lao Zhang lowered his head and continued to eat his own meal, obviously not wanting to talk about this issue anymore.

Li Jiu left speechlessly with his meal.

……

"What's the bottom line?"

As soon as he sat down next to Salmon, Salmon asked him curiously, Li Jiu shook his head, and said in disappointment: "Don't mention it! The editor-in-chief means that this book can't be signed, let Wen Chou get a new manuscript that meets the market demand, in that case, he will still be given a chance!"

"What?"

Salmon's eyes widened, and like Li Jiu just now, he couldn't believe his ears, so a classic and novel novel, even if it doesn't increase the price, still refuse to get a visa?

"The editor-in-chief said that he has given you the rejection comments!"

……

After 6 Yang got out of school in the afternoon, he returned to the rental house with Cao Xue, Cao Xue took the initiative to grab the cooking job, and pushed 6 Yang out of the kitchen, as if he wanted to be a qualified cook.

6 Yang had nothing to do, so he went to the study to turn on the computer, logged on to the 6 mailbox, and wanted to see if the salmon had seen his manuscript and handed it over for review.

The mailbox logged in to 6 successfully, and there were two new emails in the inbox, both of which were replied by salmon.

How did you reply to two new emails this time? It can't be one more delivery, right?6 Yang thought with a smile, and clicked on the first reply.

Hello Wen Choujun!

Thank you for the manuscript again, the manuscript has been submitted to the editorial team for review, please be patient, the review cycle is about half a month.

I wish the spring of literature and thoughts, and the wonderful pen and flowers!

- Salmon

Sure enough, it was a template reply to the receipt, and 6 Yang smiled and clicked on another reply, thinking that the content of this email was mostly exactly the same.

It's just that......

Hello Wen Choujun!

I regret to inform you that your new book "Infinite Killing", after careful review by our editorial team, is considered to lack publication value and does not meet the mainstream needs of the market, however, because you are our old author, the editor-in-chief is willing to give you another chance, as long as you write a mainstream fantasy text, a few more female characters, and a little less killing scenes, we are still willing to continue to cooperate with you.

I wish the spring of literature and thoughts, and the wonderful pen and flowers!

- Salmon

"Visa refused?"

6The smile on Yang's face disappeared, and the relaxed expression was no longer there, this result was completely unexpected, the new book that he spent more than a month conceiving, his own ambitious work, he couldn't even sign a contract? Write a mainstream fantasy text? How many more female characters? A teenager and a few heroines of the stallion text?

6. Jan was in a bad mood.

In his memory, the first infinite stream work was sold in Taiwan, how could he write it himself, and even signing a contract became a problem?

How much worse did I write than that book?

If this is his first work and he is denied, 6 Yang is not surprised, because the publishing house is always more harsh on newcomers, especially the first work, the possibility of being denied a visa is very great, but he has already published three works in C Publishing House, and this book should be smooth! After all, the sales of the first three books are good.

Let me rewrite a mainstream fantasy text for you?

6 Yang felt a kind of naked insult in his heart, and refused to sign the work he had carefully prepared, so that he could get a copy of the popular article before signing with himself?

……

Sitting in front of the computer, sitting silently for more than half an hour, 6 Yang carefully pondered what to do?

6 It is impossible for Yang to do this, he is not short of money now, and he will no longer throw his dignity on the ground for tens of thousands of dollars for others to trample on, once this kind of thing spreads in the author's circle, how will he be mixed up in the future? Who can still afford him? After publishing three books, the new book publisher refused to sign the visa, and then for the sake of the previous cooperation, rewarded him with a bite to eat?

Half an hour later, 6 Yang finally made up his mind, searched through the contact information of several other publishing houses from the mailbox address book, and submitted the manuscript and outline one by one.

Even Publishing House D, Publishing House E, and Publishing House F, whose strength is obviously weaker than Publishing House C, submitted a manuscript to the past, and he did not believe in his painstaking work, and none of the publishing houses were willing to publish it.

It's not that they don't miss their old feelings and don't give the manuscript to C Publishing House, but they have too high a vision, so they can't blame themselves. Even if several other publishing houses are unwilling to publish it, he will not make a new bullshit mainstream fantasy article to submit.

The twilight of publishing is approaching, and in the next few years, Taiwan's publishing houses will close down one after another, and even those that are still alive will not be as profitable as before, and the majority of the money made by Internet writers will be electronic copyrights!

Therefore, when submitting articles to these publishing houses, 6 Yang had already made a decision in his heart, even if none of the publishing houses were willing to publish it, he would take the book to the starting point, and as long as there were readers willing to read it, he would update it until it was finished.

He won't just swallow this breath, and as for C Publishing House, he will never submit articles to them again in the future.
