Chapter 39 "Children's Books" focuses on the story

Jiuyi Literature Publishing House is a well-known publishing house in Huaxia, and once published many top best-selling physical books.

It's just that in recent years, physical books have become more and more sluggish, and the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House has begun to decline gradually.

Ye Xuan did some work on the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House last night, and learned that the income of this publishing house so far is really low, and I am afraid that in another year and a half, this publishing house will be unable to make ends meet.

After Ye Xuan's analysis, the reasons for the decline of the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House are both internal and external.

The internal reason is that the employees of Jiuyi Literature Publishing House are not highly motivated, from the editor-in-chief to the ordinary editor, who almost regard their work as a mechanical program.

If you don't have the energy to dig up excellent works, and if you don't have good works, then a publishing house will be on the verge of bankruptcy.

Obviously, the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House has become a behemoth for so many years, although it is not so easy to fall, but if you don't do anything all day long, it will fall sooner or later.

As for the external reasons, Ye Xuan also has some understanding.

Nowadays, the physical industry in Huaxia is not very prosperous, and there has been no hot and best-selling physical books for a long time.

Coupled with the increasing impact of online literature, the market for physical books is shrinking more and more.

These problems plague the real industry, but the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House does not want to forge ahead, and only knows how to lie on the credit book and eat the old book.

Ye Xuan is not a good entrepreneur.

But Ye Xuan knew that as long as the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House innovated a little and added enough capital investment, then Ye Xuan's dream of building a super IP empire still had a chance to come true.

Ye Xuan drove to the office building where the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House was located.

When Ye Xuan calmly approached the office area of the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House, all the editorial staff were silent.

They already knew that Ye Xuan had bought the entire Nine Arts Literature Publishing House.

Now, Ye Xuan is the boss.

"Mr. Ye, your office is ready. ”

An assistant stepped forward and led Ye Xuan to the new office.

This office belonged to the original owner of the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House, and now it has changed hands, and the assistant spent a night rearranging it, and he still doesn't know if the Fu is to the taste of the new boss.

"Call your editor-in-chief. ”

After Ye Xuan walked into the office and sat down, he said to the assistant.

"Okay, Mr. Ye. ”

For a publishing house of Nuoda, Ye Xuan naturally will not manage it personally, he only needs to put forward a development strategy and let the people below implement it.

Those who have merit in the implementation process will be rewarded, and those who do not act will leave directly!

After a while, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a big belly and some balding head, pushed open the door and walked in.

"Mr. Ye, are you looking for me?"

The bald middle-aged man looked very respectful and walked to Ye Xuan's desk.

"Editor-in-Chief Gao, sit down. ”

Ye Xuan knew that the editor-in-chief was called Gao Yishan, and he was a relatively well-known figure in the industry.

Therefore, Ye Xuan also has more respect for this person.

"Editor-in-Chief Gao, what is the current situation of the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House, can you please tell me about it?"

Although Ye Xuan already has some understanding of the current situation of the Nine Arts Literature Publishing House, he still needs to learn more from Gao Yishan.

"Mr. Ye, now our Jiuyi Literature Publishing House mainly operates the magazines "Oriental Fantasy Story", "Suspense Detective" and "Children's Books", which are the magazines with better subscriptions so far. ”

Gao Yishan reported to Ye Xuan on the current business situation of the publishing house.

"By the way, the editor-in-chief of "Children's Books" has asked me to be dismissed, is there a new suitable candidate for editor-in-chief Gao?" Ye Xuan asked.

Gao Yishan nodded: "This is true." ”

"Okay, Editor-in-Chief Gao, you can arrange this matter. After Ye Xuan finished speaking, he handed the two children's stories "Finding Nemo" and "Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf" written by his baby daughter Sissi that had been printed on the desk to Gao Yishan: "Editor-in-chief Gao, these are the two manuscripts written by my daughter, you can take a look." ”

Ye Xuan felt that this manuscript was very suitable for publication in the magazine "Children's Books", but unfortunately when Ye Xuan came to the publishing house to submit the manuscript, Tang Chinese, the editor-in-chief of "Children's Books", did not even read it.

"Oh?" Gao Yishan became curious as soon as he heard that it was Ye Xuan's daughter.

Gao Yishan knew Ye Xuan, and Ye Xuan also knew those things Gao Yishan before, but Gao Yishan did not evaluate a person at will like Tang Chinese.

So far, Ye Xuan has given Gao Yishan the feeling that he has the demeanor of everyone's son, and he does not have that arrogant and uninhibited attitude.

This once made Gao Yishan wonder, could it be that Ye Xuan, the son of the richest man who was circulating on the Internet before, was wantonly made up by others?

After Gao Yishan took the manuscript, he helped his eyes, and then began to read it seriously.

These are two short stories, one called "Finding Nemo" and the other "Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf", each of which is no more than a few hundred words.

But it is these hundreds of words that vividly describe a wonderful story.

And in the story, you can also find something very educational.

"Finding Nemo" portrays a heroic father, which shows the greatness of father's love, and the kind-hearted underwater animals help the father and son reunite, which is also full of positive energy.

The story of "Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf" is very educational, and after experiencing danger, Little Red Riding Hood learns to listen to the advice of adults and not to trust bad people.

The deep meaning in these stories is simply scarce in today's children's stories.

Although Gao Yishan is not the editor-in-chief of the "Children's Books" magazine, he also knows some about current fairy tales.

Nowadays, many fairy tale writers write stories that are very dull, blindly writing simple and easy-to-understand stories, but the skin of the story is there, but there is nothing substantial.

Implied meaning.

If a story has no meaning, then the story is just a bunch of words.

Gao Yishan believes that although the two children's stories written by Ye Xuan's daughter still need to be strengthened in terms of the use of words, they are indeed very good in the core soul of the story, as long as the text is trimmed and typeset, it will definitely be two excellent children's stories!

"Mr. Ye, these two stories written by your daughter are very exciting. Gao Yishan said sincerely.

"Editor-in-chief Gao, my daughter's two manuscripts should be published in "Children's Books", what do you think?" Although Ye Xuan was asking, he was actually asking Gao Yishan to do this.

Gao Yishan naturally nodded affirmatively: "The new issue of "Children's Books" magazine can publish these two stories, and they can also be the main stories!"

"That's good. ”

Ye Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
