readx;? Chapter 356 came to Chuncao Press

For Nova Press, their editors-in-chief are a bit big now, and they don't know what kind of work to publish. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Whether it's children's literature or comics, there are two publishers that occupy two markets. Even if it publishes some student study books, there is also a 'Chunmiao Publishing House' that monopolizes the market!

Now, this newly established 'New Star Press' is in a bit of a dilemma. If you give up like this, you are a little unwilling, but if you want to compete with the other two publishers, then there is no chance of winning.

For Nova Press, this interruption can be said to be a bit overwhelming, and I don't know what to do next.

Although they also received a lot of submissions from amateur authors. But their editor-in-chief looks at it and feels that these manuscripts are not very good, and if they are published, it is very unlikely that they will become popular.

As far as this newly established publishing house is concerned, this must be an instant hit! Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult to produce any achievements in the future. As the saying goes, it's off to a good start. The publication of this first work can be said to be related to the future survival of this 'new star publishing house'!

Because this first publication task was very important, the managers of this publishing house also thought about it, not knowing what to do, whether it was better to publish children's literature or some comics.

And for Xu Hong, he didn't know the situation at all, he had just come to the capital, and he didn't know much about the cultural enterprises in the capital. That is, I went to the 'Spring Sprout Publishing House' before. I know a little bit more about this publishing house. As for 'Chuncao Publishing House' and 'Chunmiao Publishing House', he doesn't know anything about it.

Besides, Xu Hong drove today and came to the city center.

He first inquired about the address of the Chuncao Publishing House, and then drove to this publishing house.

When I went to the publishing house, I went to the company, found an editor in the editorial department, and showed my manuscript to others.

The editor's name is Li Wei, and he is a young college student. I didn't work much time at this publishing house either.

But this Li Wei is very good at writing, and when he was in college, he had already published a lot of works in many newspapers and periodicals across the country.

In particular, a lot of children's literature has been written. It has also been published in some well-known children's publications across the country.

It is precisely because he has always had some love for children's literature that Li Wei chose to become an editor after graduating from university, and he is the editor of a children's literature publishing house.

In the editorial office, it is common to meet some young people who take the manuscript and show it directly to the editor. Because anyone who is new to writing will want to have their manuscript directly shown to the editor. In this way, if there is any problem with your manuscript, the editor can also directly point it out, even if it cannot be published or published, but at least you know that you have some shortcomings in writing, so that you can also improve it in the future writing process.

Li Wei has read a lot of children's novels. They are all works written by some young college students after graduation and after work.

After reading these works, Li Wei felt that they were all shoddy works, which were not literary at all, and did not understand the psychology of children.

When he saw Xu Hong coming to the editorial department, he didn't care, just took Xu Hong's works and took a few looks.

But these few glances surprised him.

"Damn, this is really well written! it's the best children's literature I've ever seen. Li Wei only read the first chapter of "Sanmao Wanderings", and he felt that it was very well written.

After only reading the first chapter, I want to keep reading. So I went on reading it again. It doesn't matter that Xu Hong is sitting opposite him.

In this way, this guy has been watching Xu Hong's work, and this time he has been watching for an hour, and he has no intention of letting go.

Xu Hong looked at it, how can this work, he doesn't have time to spend it here, he always has to know, how is his work, and whether this publishing house is willing to publish it!

Thinking of this, Xu Hong deliberately coughed twice and said, "Ahem, Editor Li, how is my work, can it be published?"

Only then did Li Wei come to his senses. After putting the manuscript away, he laughed twice: "Haha! haha!"

Xu Hong was still a little baffled, I don't know what is going on with this person, could it be that he is a little neurotic! But how could an editor of a publishing house be a psychotic!

"Editor Li, what are you laughing at, how is my work. Xu Hong still looked at Li Wei cautiously and asked.

"Great, it's great, it's the best children's literature I've ever seen. The image of Sanmao created in your work is so realistic, I have only read a few chapters, and I have been deeply fascinated!"

Li Wei looked at Xu Hong and laughed happily again.

After laughing, he looked at Xu Hong again and asked, "This is the work you wrote." ”

Xu Hong thought to himself, "You're not talking nonsense, it's not my work, why should I show it to you!" But he said with a modest smile: "Yes! This is my clumsy work." ”

"Have you published children's literature before, are you a well-known children's writer? ”

As soon as he saw that Xu Hong's works were so mature, his writing skills were so profound, and his characters were so realistic, he thought that although Xu Hong was young, he might already be an 'old author'.

When Xu Hong heard this, he looked at Li Wei and smiled: "I'm sorry, this is just my debut novel, I haven't published any works before." ”

"What, what do you say, this is your debut novel, you haven't published anything before. As soon as he heard Xu Hong's words, Li Wei's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that an author who had never published any works could write a work with such a high level of writing and such a vivid storyline at once.

"That's right, I'm actually only a primary school teacher, and I'm also an elementary school teacher who teaches art, and this story of "Sanmao Wanderings" is just my first attempt at writing!

Because I felt that my writing level was not very good, it was my first time trying to believe, so I chose children's literature, which felt less stressful. After all, it's for children, and you can write as you like, without having to stick to a certain form. ”

These things Xu Hong said were also true, he was originally just a painter. This time he wrote, and it can be said that he wrote every time. During his lifetime, he had never been involved in writing. And after being reborn, this was the first time I started writing!

"Genius, really genius, Mr. Xu, you are really a genius!" Li Wei is a young man, about the same age as Xu Hong, this person has a more cheerful personality, when he saw Xu Hong's works so good, he couldn't help but praise it, and directly praised Xu Hong for being a genius!

"Haha, Editor Li, don't praise me like this, if you praise me again, I won't be able to find the north. When Xu Hong heard Li Wei praise him like this, he also felt a little embarrassed.

But at the same time, Xu Hong also felt in his heart that he had met a bosom friend this time. If this guy recommends his own work, there will be a reason why it can't be published.

Xu Hong knows very well that in a publishing house, the editorial weight is very heavy, and whether it can be published or not is generally up to them.

Of course, because of the situation he encountered in the 'Spring Sprout Publishing House' before, it did make Xu Hong a little worried about whether he would encounter such a situation again.

This is another publishing house, and although the name is somewhat similar to that of 'Spring Sprout Publishing House', it is not the same thing at all. This publishing house mainly publishes comic works. Of course, some children's literature will also be published.

"Mr. Xu, don't worry! This work of yours will definitely be published, and of course, I have to show it to our editor-in-chief. However, he is just going to take a form, and there will definitely be no problem. ”

Li Wei looked at Xu Hong, and directly gave Xu Hong a reassurance.

Xu Hong was also sincerely happy when he heard it. I thought, this time I was a successful teacher, and I found another buyer so quickly, and I also boasted about my work!

"Editor Li, I don't know when I will be able to sign the contract!" Xu Hong is of course most concerned about this matter now. He had agreed with Liu Changtian that he would publish his work within 10 days! If he couldn't publish it, he would have to pay 500,000 yuan in compensation!

To say 500,000 is nothing to Xu Hong. But the point is, if he loses 500,000 yuan, it will be a loss for adults. In the future, I'm afraid it won't be easy to mix in the capital.

Li Wei glanced at Xu Hong and said, "It won't be long, I'll show your work to the editor-in-chief right away." However, I'm afraid I won't be able to give you an answer today. Because the editor-in-chief reads it, even if he feels good, he has to show the work to the president again! Only when the boss agrees and signs the contract, then he can sign a contract with the author! These are the procedures for publishing some works. Although it's just a formality, you have to go, so you just wait for my news! I'll call you tomorrow, you can go back first!"

"Okay, I'll go back first, I'll wait for your call tomorrow. "Xu Hong has no choice, this matter is not in a hurry, so he can only wait for the call of Editor Li.

So, Xu Hong happily left the 'Spring Grass Publishing House'. Then, I drove back to my elementary school.

Besides, Li Wei took the manuscript Xu Hong gave him and read it happily again. I read it all morning, and it wasn't until it was time for lunch that I put down the manuscript.

After lunch, Li Wei was still reading the manuscript! But after looking at it, the editor-in-chief came to his side. But he didn't even know it.

The editor-in-chief of 'Chuncao Publishing House' is called Cheng Kunshan. He is a middle-aged and elderly man in his fifties. I have been working for this 'Chuncao Publishing House' for seven or eight years.

Just now, Editor-in-Chief Cheng read some manuscripts sent by the editorial department in his office. I didn't feel good, so I wanted to come to the editors and ask them how they picked the manuscripts, and how they picked the manuscripts were not good!

You must know that the manuscripts that are shown to the editor-in-chief have been selected by the editors and feel good, but even these manuscripts are really not good in the eyes of the editor-in-chief, and they are not worth mentioning at all.

When the editor-in-chief came to the office, the other editors saw that the editor-in-chief was coming, so they sat upright one by one, not daring to cross Erlang's legs anymore, or talk and chat.

But Li Wei was just concentrating on reading the manuscript! Completely attracted by the plot in "The Wanderings of Sanmao". He didn't feel the arrival of the editor-in-chief at all.

If you don't feel it, forget it. But this Li Wei has a problem, that is, when he reads the manuscript, he still likes to knock melon seeds, and in the drawer of his desk, he keeps a bag of melon seeds every day, and he knocks melon seeds while reading the manuscript.

Originally, this kind of behavior must have been unwilling for the editor-in-chief. There is work time to knock melon seeds while working.

But the editor-in-chief is not always staring at the editors under him. Therefore, these editors are still very free in their own editorial office.

Li Wei is the same, he has always liked to read manuscripts like this. Although before, when he was reading the manuscript while knocking melon seeds, he would also encounter the situation of the editor-in-chief inspecting in the past, but at that time, he would see it in advance. After all, when Li Wei is doing these things, he will also pay attention to the movement at the door, and as soon as he hears that someone is coming, he will put the melon seeds in the drawer of his desk and stop knocking them.

But this time, because I was too involved in reading the manuscript, I didn't know at all. This looks at the input, and the knock is also very devoted, and under the chair he is sitting on, he is already knocking the skin of melon seeds.

As soon as Editor-in-Chief Cheng saw this situation, his face immediately changed. Looking at Li Wei, who was still forgetting to read the manuscript and knocking melon seeds, the editor-in-chief suddenly said loudly: "Editor Li, is your job good! Reading the manuscript while knocking melon seeds, is this in the office or at your home!"

Li Wei returned to reality from the scene of reading the manuscript, and when he saw that the editor-in-chief was standing in front of him, the melon seeds he was about to deliver to his mouth fell to the ground.

"Editor-in-chief, I --- that I have found a particularly good-looking manuscript! I am too involved in reading it!" Li Wei couldn't explain that he was reading the manuscript and knocking melon seeds, so he could only say that the manuscript was too well written.

Editor-in-chief Cheng listened to Li Wei's words and didn't care at all. It's just that he thought of Li Wei's situation just now when he was so engrossed in reading the manuscript, and he was a little strange. You must know that in the past, when he came to the editorial office, he would also see Li Wei reading the manuscript, but he was always absent-minded, would he be so engaged as he is today, it would be completely like reading a best-selling book that he likes to read! )
