After the National Day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It seemed that overnight, the entire city of Matsudaira suddenly became busy.

After entering October, the Songping Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government did not do too much in the formulation of the scenic project plan and research, after several rounds of overall planning and layout, Shi Zhengfei and Jiang Si Chengdu did not let the project continue to stagnate on the conference table, but have begun to carry out almost the implementation of the strong.

Lin Tao's plan was not fully adopted, which was also expected by Lin Tao at the beginning.

Time flies.

When Lin Tao learned in early November that "Notes on Tomb Robbery" was nominated for Novel of the Year, he just smiled and didn't feel very surprised!

Obviously.

If "Kung Fu Panda" or "Love Apartment" were nominated, he would have felt a little weird.

It's not hard to figure it out.

Whether it is "Kung Fu Panda" or "Love Apartment", they have been questioned by the review articles published in "Novelist" magazine before, and even banned Lin Tao's works for a time.

But on the other hand, the fact is that the jury must nominate Xiaobai's work within the year, otherwise the results of the selection of the novel of the year will definitely be drowned in saliva.

It's also very simple.

The author of two works that have sold tens of millions!

Just this name is enough for Xiaobai's pen name to become the most awesome existence in the domestic literary circle.

It's unimaginable.

If even Xiaobai's works can't be selected for Novel of the Year, will such a selection result be a joke?

Previously, the novelist group had caused a series of frictions between Wang Gao and him and the Dongjiang Literature Publishing House, and the already unhappy coexistence relationship became extinct because the sales of the monthly magazine "Dongjiang Literature" surpassed it in an all-round way.

But it doesn't matter if they like it or not.

Entering November.

The pressure of public opinion and pressure from within the system forced the novelists to make greater concessions in their attitude towards the Dongjiang Literary Publishing House.

As a result, at the end of October, the novelist officially announced that he would resume the qualification of Dongjiang Literature as the monthly magazine of the year, and removed Wang Gao from the position of vice president of the group, and officially formed an annual novel jury by the relevant departments of the central government, together with top universities and CCTV.

In order to prevent the recurrence of Wang Gao's decision to revoke the magazine's selection qualifications, the members of the jury selected the members through open elections and recommendations.

Besides.

Early November.

The just-established Novel of the Year jury officially announced the nominations for the 2007 Novel of the Year, among which "Notes on Tomb Robbery" was nominated for the best novel of the year, and Xiaobai was nominated for the best writer of the year for the first time.

When they saw this nomination, both Wang Dongdong and Li Hongbo were actually relieved.

If this year's nomination still rejects Xiaobai's works outside the door, then I'm afraid things will be a big deal, even if Lin Tao himself won't care about such a false name.

September.

The total sales of the two volumes of Dongjiang Literature in the first half of the month exceeded 9 million copies without any suspense, becoming the holder of a new sales record for domestic magazines.

And just a month later, in October.

The total sales of the two volumes of Dongjiang Literature in the first half of the month have once again made a new breakthrough, with sales of more than 10 million copies once again breaking the previous record set in September.

Wang Dongdong knows better than anyone.

The reason why the novelist group is so happy to re-recognize the annual selection qualification of the monthly magazine "Dongjiang Literature" is that such sales results are actually the most important bargaining chips.

"Lin Tao, congratulations! This time it shouldn't be a problem to win the award. ”

in the microphone.

Wang Dongdong's voice is still quite confident.

This time, as long as the jury is not blind, they know that "Tomb Robbery Notes" and Xiaobai should be awarded, otherwise it will not be enough to make the people angry.

"Kung Fu Panda" children's literature, the writing is rough and has no literary value?

Okay, then I'll admit it.

The story of "Love Apartment" is simple, there is no logic, it lacks theme, and it has no literary value?

Okay, you are the uncle, or you have the final say.

But what about Notes on Tomb Robbery?

Lin Tao does not deny that "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is actually not of much high level, after all, it is a creation that draws on or even retains memory, but as a pioneering work, it is definitely enough in 2007 in this time and space.

Is the writing rough?

Lacks logic?

Is it a children's book?

Neither.

"Dongjiang Literature" monthly magazine has serialized "Kung Fu Panda 2", "Love Apartment 2" and "Tomb Robbery Notes" for 5 consecutive issues.

Judging from the response, "Kung Fu Panda" and "Love Apartment" already have Zhuyu in front of them after all, so although they are excellent, it is still very difficult to surpass the former.

But "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is different, this is a brand new work, and the popularity of this work in the market has even far exceeded Wang Dongdong's expectations.

"Brother Wang, you are also an old man, don't shoot yourself in the foot, it's just a nomination, it's still unknown whether you can get it. ”

“--”

Wang Dongdong was speechless in the microphone for a while.

But Lin Tao's words reminded him, and he was vaguely apprehensive in his heart.

This nomination is a nomination, and it's really hard to say whether you can get it in the end, if you can't get it, then it's really shooting yourself in the foot.

"How is Vice President Jiang doing there? I see that the promotional video says that "Love Apartment" will be broadcast during the Spring Festival, can it be so soon?"

After signing the film and television copyright use agreement with Lin Tao, in less than a month, Jiang Wendong should have rounded up the prime-time advertising of Dragon TV, and so far, the trailer of the new film "Love Apartment" has been broadcast for half a month.

can determine the starring role in such a short period of time, Lin Tao is very sure that Jiang Wendong should have started planning before he got the copyright from his hands.

"There should be no problem, filming a TV series will only be simpler than you think, not to mention that in an old TV production company like them, the equipment and personnel are ready-made, only there may be some approval problems in terms of funds for the time being, but the money you invested should be enough. ”

Noncommittal.

Jiang Wendong did have financial difficulties, and they were far more serious than Wang Dongdong had initially anticipated.

The filming fund of "Love Apartment" is expected to be about 5 million, and Lin Tao invested 3 million in his personal name.

But even so, Jiang Wendong, as the vice president of the company, couldn't even take out another 3 million funds from the company's financial accounts, so Lin Tao's worries were not out of nowhere.

In fact.

If he weren't optimistic about Jiang Wendong's personality and conditions, Lin Tao would not have handed over the film and television adaptation rights of "Love Apartment" to the other party at all.

It's the end of November.

Monday.

As soon as Wang Dongdong walked into the office, Yang Min knocked on the door and came in a little excitedly.

"Yang Min, what's the matter?"

Seeing that something was wrong with Yang Min's face, Wang Dongdong was suddenly stunned in his heart, and he had a faint bad premonition.

"Mr. Wang, the list of winners of the annual novel has come out, and there is no name of Xiaobai. ”

What the?

Xiaobai unexpectedly lost the election!

Wang Dongdong was suddenly a little dazed.

Damn it!

was actually hit by Lin Tao's words!

Wang Dongdong was suddenly a little angry.

Without even thinking about it, I just picked up the phone and dialed out.

"Sister Li, why did Xiaobai lose the election. ”

Wang Dongdong's voice was a little cold.

He was really angry.

It's outrageous!

He didn't believe at all that if even Xiaobai's "Notes on Tomb Robbery" couldn't win the novel of the year, whose work would win the award.

Novelist Group!

Editorial office.

When Li Hongbo saw the number on the phone display, he immediately smiled bitterly in his heart. When she saw the award-winning results, she had actually guessed that Wang Dongdong would definitely make this call.

In fact, Li Hongbo himself is also a little unhappy in his heart.

As a top magazine editor in China, Li Hongbo is very clear about the current situation in the domestic literary market.

If it is a traditional literary award, such as the Mao Dun Literature Award, the Lu Xun Literature Award, etc., with the type and accumulation of Lin Tao's works, it is indeed difficult to win awards, and it is even very difficult to even nominate them.

But if it is an annual selection, it is impossible for anyone in China to take away the awards for the best work and the best author from Lin Tao.

Because the annual selection is semi-entertaining, the selection is based on more than simply considering the literary nature of the writer's work and the seniority in the literary world.

It is more based on the popularity and social impact of the work, and there is no clear and specific measurement standard for the two of them.

However, judging from the consistent performance, the circulation of the work, sales data, especially overseas distribution, etc., will become the fundamental embodiment of influence and popularity.

No matter from which point of view, Lin Tao's works are enough to throw off more than 20 streets of authors and works in the same period in China.

And judging from the list of nominees, Lin Tao was indeed nominated for the Best Work of the Year and the Best Writer of the Year, if nothing else, there would be no surprise at all when he was nominated for the award.

But the accident eventually happened.

This somewhat disappointed Li Hongbo, not disappointed that Xiaobai was defeated, but that the jury's evaluation results still made people unable to see anything satisfactory.

"Wang-I--"

Li Hongbo was suddenly a little speechless.

It was indeed difficult for her to deal with Wang Dongdong's problems, and the members of the jury were not made up of the novelist group, but were selected from all over the country.

But on the other hand, the results of this review also show that even so, there is still unfairness in the jury, which Li Hongbo cannot refute.

"Sister Li, you just said that you don't know about this, right?"

Li Hongbo could hear that Wang Dongdong's tone was a little stiff, and even had a hint of anger.

"Xiao Wang--- me--"

Smack~click!

Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~

The blind sound from the microphone made Li Hongbo frown a little, but he did not hesitate in his heart, but immediately picked up the microphone and dialed back.

"I'm sorry, the call you're calling is on a call, please call back later!I'm sorry, you--"

Syllable!

Hang up!!

Pick it up again!!

Callback !!!

"Sorry, the phone you dialed is on a call, please dial again later!Sorry, the phone you dialed is on a call, please dial again later!-"

Syllable!

As the editor-in-chief of the editorial department of the novelist group, it is impossible for her to disclose the company's internal decisions to Wang Dongdong, this is her responsibility and obligation, but as an old friend, Li Hongbo has known Wang Dongdong for a long time, and can even be regarded as one of his guides.

It is indeed a bit tricky for such a contradiction to arise.

He hesitated for a moment.

She picked up the microphone again and dialed a number with great familiarity, without even a pause.

"Hong Bo, did you call for Dongdong's business? Don't worry, I already told him just now. ”

The voice in the microphone is extremely familiar.

It's Jiang Yan's.

"Yanzi, did Xiao Wang complain to you, you must know about this, the cat in this annual selection is very clear, and you should also know that the award-winning work is the book recommended by Weng Lao last time, 6 of the 11 members of the jury are Weng Lao's students, and 3 are his acquaintances.

There is also Liu Bing, who won the Writer's Award, as you know, he should have won the award last year, but the nomination was squeezed out, and this year he will definitely be sent to the writer.

After all, Xiaobai is still a little less experienced in the circle, and he also offended many people last time, no one is willing to guarantee to speak to him, and no one is willing to offend Weng Lao to award this award to him. ”

There was a moment of silence in the microphone.

Li Hongbo is undoubtedly telling the truth, and although she is not a member of the jury, she is the secretary of the jury, and she naturally knows the process and results of the discussion well.

The reason why he didn't tell Wang Dongdong directly was because there were many issues involved in this matter, especially Weng Lao played a not very glorious role in it.

Wang Dongdong's character Li Hongbo has always been extremely familiar, once she learned the truth, she didn't dare to guarantee that he would not be angry and poke this matter out.

As for the nomination?

In the eyes of those bigwigs who are really able to manipulate the results.

The nomination is a joke.

It's not so much an honor as it is just a handout.

"Don't tell Dongdong about the situation inside, this kind of thing is not suitable for him to know, Weng Lao's side, after all, we still have to give a little face, but this time we have gone too far, I believe that it is not all Weng Lao's personal meaning. ”

After all, Jiang Yan was on the propaganda front, and Li Hongbo's voice fell, but he had already thought of the stakes between his thoughts.

This matter involves Weng Lao, and it is indeed not something that Wang Dongdong can be qualified to get involved in, and the best way is to use a relatively mild method to calm the unhappiness in his heart.

As for Xiaobai!

Come to think of it.

Jiang Yan couldn't help but think of Lin Tao's appearance in his mind.

She is one of the few people who knows Xiaobai's true identity and has seen Lin Tao. (To be continued.) )
