Chapter 413: The Book

The children's book editor Yang Ping said is named Cao Feng, a middle-aged man in his thirties, probably because he often deals with children's books, he always has a peaceful smile on his face, and belongs to the kind of adults who like children.

He looked at the thin girl in front of him, and felt that she was very special, although she was not a big beauty, but her waist was straight, she looked very educated, and she had a poetic and scholarly temperament, after all, she was Su Hongyi and Yang Ping, the two college scholars, who were very valued by the juniors, and with the pickiness of the two of them, the people who could value it could never be general.

He was stunned when he saw the stack of manuscripts that were about as thick as the manuscripts, and she even copied a new manuscript with her suggestions for revisions in order not to destroy them, and made many suggestions.

Cao Feng looked at Yang Ping, "Didn't this first draft be given to you seven days ago?"

This revised first draft was only seven days in Yang Ping's hands, even if she gave it to Liu Haohao immediately, it was impossible for Liu Haohao to have more than seven days, which means that she not only read these first drafts within seven days, but also put forward so many revisions, which is too efficient!

Yang Ping also saw these revisions for the first time, and it was also difficult to hide her shock, she looked at Liu Haohao's blue eyes, and felt very guilty, "You kid is too serious, you can probably just take a look, you usually have to go to class, and you have to do so many things, where did you squeeze out the time to put forward these opinions?

Liu Hao smiled, "Time, there is always a squeeze." ”

The lights went out at ten o'clock in the evening in the school dormitory, and she couldn't sleep anyway, so she read the manuscript in the quilt with a flashlight, and when it was dawn, she went out to find a place to write out the suggestions, and tried not to occupy her usual study and rehearsal time.

"Even if you are young, you can't be so careless about your body, the dark circles under your eyes are boiled out, how can your body stand it in the long run?" Cao Feng looked at Liu Haohao's opinions seriously, but Yang Ping looked distressed.

"It's just occasional, and when I go back, I sleep a few nights and make it up, and everyone works like this, and a few of our classmates in the dormitory bite the flashlight in bed every night to read. ”

The lights out time of Beijing University is very early, everyone is very energetic to study, the economic conditions are slightly better, often play the flashlight in the quilt to read and study, Liu Hao usually goes to bed early and gets up early, if it is not for this manuscript, he is reluctant to play the flashlight.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, the story of your revised manuscript has become stronger again, it seems that you know children better than me, a children's editor. Cao Feng read a few pages, and felt that the manuscript that had been changed by her had become much easier to understand, and it added a lot of interest, and even he was fascinated when he read it.

"I used to teach the children to read in the primary school of our production team, and often told them stories, and when I revised these drafts, I would often see their appearance in front of me, and I would think about their comprehension ability, and when they read it, they would not understand it, and they would not like it, as if they were telling stories to them in person, adding a lot of colloquial expressions, and I didn't know whether it was appropriate or not. ”

"The books for children must be as simple as possible, but sometimes we are used to writing articles, and often ignore the needs of children, you have given us a wake-up call, I have also heard Yang Lao and Su Lao mention, you used to be a very good primary school teacher, so this time I also came to ask for your opinion, do you have any good ideas for this set of books?"

"One is the illustration, and the other is the phonetic. Children are more sensitive to pictures, if you can add more illustrations to the book, it will be more helpful for them to understand, deepen their impression, and there is Zhuyin, many children are not very literate, if they can publish a Zhuyin version of the book, it can help them read. ”

Cao Feng nodded, very satisfied with Liu's style of speaking, she went straight to the point like this, directly cutting to the point, much more effective than playing around in circles, "We have also taken into account the illustrations, and are looking for excellent painters, the society attaches great importance to this set of books, and lists this set of books as our key projects this year, and strives to be officially published before next year, but about Zhuyin, if you take the scheme of Zhuyin for the whole set of books, the typography will not be so beautiful, and it will increase the cost." ”

"Why don't you phonetize and annotate some rare characters?"

"That's what I think about, too, especially when it comes to some names and official positions. Cao Feng nodded, "I will take your comments back and study them carefully, if possible, the following content may also need your help to make revisions, and when the revisions reach a certain amount, your name will be signed in the author's column." ”

"It really doesn't matter if it's signed or not, I just hope that this set of books will be published as soon as possible, because children need such books so much. "I hope that the publication of this set of books can drive the development of the entire children's book industry and make more and more people pay attention to children's education." ”

"You're right, this is also the idea of our publishing house, next we are going to publish a series of children's books, do you have any good suggestions?"

"That's really good, in addition to children's history books, there are also popular science books that children are very needed, don't look at the children's young age, they are also very interested in science......" She told Cao Feng about Li Jiyuan's science lectures back then," Teacher Li's science lectures are full every time, the children like it very much, and accept it very quickly, and learn to draw inferences from one another, several times I have seen the children take local materials, in the simple conditions to copy Mr. Li's science experiments, their creativity, imagination is really beyond the imagination of us adults, if not properly guided it is a pity. ”

"I didn't expect your small mountain village to make these elementary school teachings so impressive!" Cao Feng was amazed, "It's worthy of our little junior sister of Beijing University, it's amazing." ”

Yang Ping explained with a smile, "Cao Feng is also a student who graduated from our Beijing University, and he has been graduating for more than ten years, so he is really your senior brother." ”

"Although I studied Chinese, I was very interested in history, and I didn't go to Teacher Su and Teacher Yang's classes at the beginning, and over time they got to know me. Cao Feng also laughed, "I'm very interested in the teacher Li Jiyuan you said, according to you, he is a professor at H University?"
