"No problem, we also contacted the "Selected Novels" for reprinting, so it is a good thing that two magazines have invited us. ”

After hearing Lin Han's words, Wang Yifan, as a person in the industry, almost bit off his tongue, and asked in a hurry: "Novel Weekly? Are you sure they are willing to reprint a science fiction novel!?"

Lin Han didn't care about Wang Yifan's sudden increase in volume, "That's right, the contract has been signed, and it will be sent after they finish proofreading the manuscript, and it will be published soon, I didn't expect such a day." ”

Originally, "Science Fiction World" already attached great importance to Lin Han, and was willing to spend up to 5,000 words to invite him to continue writing, but now Wang Yifan found that the other party had quietly become the first science fiction writer to appear in "Selected Novels" in the past three years, which was too fast to accept.

"Wow, this is really shocking news!" Wang Yifan's surprise couldn't be concealed at all, this is almost a lifetime series.

Lin Han laughed lightly, he also knew the shocking nature of this news, there had been no science fiction novel in a mainstream publication like "Selected Novels" for several years, and he was the only one, which was certainly something to be proud of.

Wang Yifan took a deep breath, "This is big news, not only for you, but also for the entire science fiction industry, which is much more powerful than sales." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, strive to continue to work hard in the future, as long as we write well, science fiction will one day attract mainstream attention, although the niche is small, but it is all conjecture about the future, and it has its own value. ”

"Well, then you can think about the new book, and I hope that the new book will be as good as "The Country Teacher". Good bye. ”

"We'll talk next time. ”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Han turned his head to look at Chen Jiaxuan, she was staring at herself with a smile on her face, "Now you feel very happy?"

"It's not bad, when you're done with this, just hand over the manuscript, I think they want to rush the last month's sales. ”

"Okay, okay, I'm going to contact their editor-in-chief directly to see how much attention is paid to your article, and I want him to help introduce a publishing house or something. ”

The two chatted while waiting for the road to clear, and all the good time was wasted in traffic jams.

……

At the same time, in the editorial department of "Science Fiction World", Wang Yifan, who got the first-hand news, didn't even care much, he said directly to his master Chen Chuhe: "I called Lin Han just now, and he said that "Country Teacher" was reprinted by "Selected Novels"!"

"What's that? You shout, I didn't hear you. ”

"I said, "Country Teacher" is going to land in the next issue of "Country Teacher"!"

The entire editorial department suddenly became silent, and all the editors and the rest of the staff turned their eyes to Wang Yifan and Chen Chuhe, wanting to make sure that this was not an auditory hallucination.

Frightened by this sudden voice, Chen Chuhe hurriedly pulled Wang Yifan's arm and asked, "How can it be, why do I sound so mysterious?"

The editors at the two desks next to him also pricked up their ears, ready to hear the inside story.

"Didn't I call Lin Han to make an appointment and ask him to post a new novel on the 12th issue. As a result, he told me that "Selected Novels" had signed a contract with him and that the next issue would be released. ”

Before Chen Chuhe could speak, an editor next to him spoke: "It's really fake, how long has it been since a science fiction novel appeared on the "Selected Novels", how can he be on it?"

"Isn't it for the sake of self-inflicted value, let's raise the price of his new book? In this way, we can increase his bargaining chips, and wait for us to sign the new book contract here, and then tell us that we have been brushed down by the novel selection. ”

These two editors are both veterans, and they want to complicate themselves, and what you say at a glance and I immediately spread throughout the editorial department.

The rest of the people who were a little further away also talked about this matter, and their magazine didn't receive any news at all, so normally they would notify the original magazine.

Just like the education system magazine "Teacher Wenyuan", it also has to reprint "Rural Teacher", but it was first ventilated with the editorial department of "Science Fiction World", and then Wang Yifan told Lin Han.

"I don't believe how a mainstream cultural magazine like Selected Fiction could take a fancy to this novel. The quality of "The Country Teacher" is very good, but science fiction has always been discriminated against, and this time it actually succeeded?"

"Really? I'd like to call an acquaintance to see if he's lying, and if he does, it's not good. Our magazine can't deal with authors with bad character, it's a matter of principle. ”

"Anyway, I don't believe it, you can find someone to confirm, this news is too exciting. ”

"yes, it's been a few years since science fiction has been featured in such an orthodox literary journal, and this is the first time he's been in recent years. ”

"Maybe he has acquaintances in "Selected Novels", some magazines have now abandoned the style of literati, and they can go on it if they have money. ”

"Maybe he is a member of the Writers' Association, after all, this is a magazine under the China Writers' Association, which should give him a little face. ”

"If the 10,000 or 20,000 members of the Writers' Association have to save face, will the "Selected Novels" still be able to operate? I think it is the reason for the high quality of the novels, especially the description of reality, which is deep into the bone marrow and makes people see a glimmer of hope in despair. ”

This group of editors is well aware of the status of "Selected Novels" in the industry, which is not something that ordinary people can on, even many traditional writers may not be able to appear on the stage of this magazine.

Wang Yifan didn't expect that everyone didn't believe Lin Han, and even some people started to ask others on QQ or on the phone, even Chen Chuhe himself quickly took out his mobile phone, found a friend's phone number in the address book, and sent a text message.

"Master, don't you believe Teacher Lin either?"

Chen Chuhe glanced at the intern, educated and said: "Of course I believe him, but this kind of thing has to be verified, come up with evidence, and directly shut up those people." ”

Most editors in the same industry know each other, so the editors of Science Fiction World are asking each other one by one to see if it's true.

"Damn, just now my friend replied, saying that it was true, it was submitted by a new editor, and the result was actually adopted. ”

"This is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and only newcomers dare to push science fiction, and he was allowed to give it. ”

"In the end, it's just Lin Han's luck, if the rest of the science fiction novels can meet such a bold new editor, they will definitely be able to do it. ”

"I heard that the new editor was a relational household, and the editor-in-chief of "Selected Novels" was embarrassed to refuse, so he agreed, basically for the sake of the editor's face. ”

"It's so surprising, no matter how you get on it, it's big news, and mainstream literature is finally less rejecting our science fiction. ”
