Chapter 351: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred

After Sun Yuanjie read Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", he felt that his writing level was really not very good, and compared with Xu Hong, the "Robot Adventure" he wrote had no artistic value at all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"No, such a work must not be published, Xu Hong must not become a well-known writer, otherwise he will not be able to keep his position. ”

After thinking about it, Sun Yuanjie felt that he was now facing a great test. If Liu Changtian publishes "The Wanderings of Sanmao", then his "Robot Adventure" is afraid that it will be over, and no one will buy his books anymore, only Xu Hong's books!

This night, Sun Yuanjie really stayed awake all night, thinking about "Sanmao Wanderings" all the time.

The next day, he took the manuscript of "Sanmao Wanderings" and came to the "Chunya Publishing House" again and met Liu Changtian.

"Teacher Sun, you've watched it all night again, how do you feel about "Sanmao Wanderings"? Do you want to let the author revise it anymore, let's publish it directly! I feel that the background of the story is not much now, maybe the children like it even more!"

Liu Changtian doesn't want to revise "Sanmao Wanderings" anymore, he is afraid that after the modification, it will not be as good as the original!

Sun Yuanjie listened to Liu Changtian's words, sat on the sofa, took out a cigarette first, still gave it to Liu Changtian, and then took out one and put it in his mouth, took out a lighter and lit it, and first took a deep breath.

Liu Changtian saw that Sun Yuanjie didn't speak, and he didn't say anything more, but just put the cigarette in his mouth, took out a lighter, lit it, and sat at the desk and smoked.

"President Liu, I feel that you are a little too partial to Xu Hong's work. Although you are a president, you have never written any literature, especially children's literature, and you have never written.

You look at the work entirely by some personal subjective judgment. Numerous facts have proved that this subjective method of judging works is not unworkable. This "Sanmao Wanderings", although it is well written, but there are also many problems, I mean, this work, it is better not to publish it. ”

Sun Yuanjie is a well-known writer of children's literature. Judging by his years of experience, if this "Sanmao Wanderings" is published, it will definitely squeeze his "Robot Adventures" across. Now that his books have shown a downward trend in sales, if he looks at the publication of "Sanmao Wanderings", the sales of his "Robot Adventure" will be greatly affected.

It is precisely because of these worries that he already does not want "Sanmao Wanderings" to be published. just wants to persuade Liu Changtian not to be optimistic about this work.

"Teacher Sun, that's the case, let's let Xu Hong revise it! If you still don't feel good after the revision, then forget it, how to say it, Xu Hong is a newcomer, should we also give him a chance!"

Liu Changtian was still a little reluctant to publish "Sanmao Wanderings". So he said another reason that Sun Yuanjie couldn't refuse.

"What President Liu said is also that a newcomer needs some opportunities to grow into a great writer. Since you said so, then you should give this work to Xu Hong, a young man, if he is willing to revise it and change the background of the work. I'll take a look at it again, if I feel that there is nothing wrong with the plot, then I can publish this "Sanmao Wanderings"!"

Sun Yuanjie has no choice, although he is very reluctant to publish "Sanmao Wanderings", but he can't criticize "Sanmao Wanderings" as useless. He is just a writer, and the 'Spring Sprout Publishing House' is not his, and he cannot be the home of the 'Spring Sprout Publishing House'. Whether this book will be published or not is still up to Liu Changtian.

"Okay, then thank you Mr. Sun, I'll go to Editor Zhang and tell him what you said. It's best to find that Xu Hong, I want to talk to him face to face!"

Liu Changtian listened to Sun Yuanjie's words, and didn't say anything more. I just want to talk to Xu Hong face-to-face and ask him to revise his novel again.

"Alright, I'll go back first. "Sun Yuanjie can't do anything. Now I just hope that this Xu Hong is a stubborn person and is unwilling to modify his works, so it will be much easier. If he really revised his work, it really made Sun Yuanjie not know what to do.

After Sun Yuanjie left, Liu Changtian found Zhang Chuan again.

Zhang Chuan was also thinking about "Sanmao Wandering" in the past few days. I thought, it would be a shame if such a good book was not published.

Even if Liu Changtian said that this novel, Sun Yuanjie would have to read it. If he says yes, he will be able to publish. But Zhang Chuan felt that even if Sun Yuanjie read it, he would definitely say yes, and he would definitely agree to Liu Changtian's publication of this "Sanmao Wanderings".

Now when he heard President Liu call him over, he felt that the matter was almost over. Now President Liu is calling himself, that is, he has to discuss by himself how to publish "Sanmao Wanderings".

President's Office.

"President Liu, are you looking for me, do you mean that our publishing house is about to publish "Sanmao Wanderings". As long as our publishing house publishes this work, we will definitely be able to defeat other opponents, and let our 'Chunya Publishing House' return to the top and become the highest-grossing publishing house in Beijing." ”

Zhang Chuan came to Liu Changtian's office and didn't wait for Liu Changtian to say anything. He said what he thought righteously.

"Lao Zhang, I'm sorry, I showed "Sanmao Wanderings" to Mr. Sun. Although he also said that the work was well written, he pointed out a big problem. If you want us not to publish this work for the time being. ”

"Oh, such a good work, what's the problem, it's still a big problem!" As soon as he heard Liu Changtian's words, Zhang Chuan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe Liu Changtian's words, how could there be anything wrong with such a good work!

"Teacher Sun said that the biggest problem with this section of the work is that the background of the story is not very good, if it is placed in the context of modern society, you say that the background of an old society, is it a little difficult for children to accept!"

"What, Mr. Sun thinks that the story background of this work is not very good, what kind of truth is this! Isn't it true that children's literature can't write stories about the old society? It doesn't make sense at all to have to write modern stories!"

Hearing Liu Changtian say this, Zhang Chuan was a little puzzled. Although he is not a children's literature writer, he is an old editor of a children's literature publishing house, and it can be said that he has been working in this industry for many years. Regarding Sun Yuanjie's question, he really didn't agree.

"Don't say that, Mr. Sun can be regarded as an authority on children's literature, and people say that there is a problem with this section, so there must be one! Although you are an editor, you have also worked in 'Chunya' for more than ten years. But you haven't written children's literature yourself! I think you are definitely not as good as Mr. Sun in terms of understanding the market for children's literature. I'm not as good as others. In this regard, I think it is still necessary to respect Mr. Sun's opinion. ”

Although Liu Changtian himself also felt that Sun Yuanjie's evaluation of the section of "Sanmao Wanderings" was a bit excessive. But he knows better that the status of 'Chunya Publishing House' is due to Sun Yuanjie. If it weren't for Sun Yuanjie's "Robot Adventures" becoming a national hit, then he Liu Changtian would not have become a successful person. And his "Spring Sprout Publishing House" could not have the glory it has today.

It is precisely because of these reasons that no matter what Liu Changtian says, he still has to respect Sun Yuanjie's opinion, and he has no intention of publishing "Sanmao Wanderings" for the time being.

Zhang Chuan listened to Liu Changtian's words, although he was very unhappy. But he is just Liu Changtian's subordinate. What the leader wants to do is not up to him.

"President Liu, since that's the case, I have nothing to say. It's really distressing that such a good work is buried like this!"

Zhang Chuan said, and turned around helplessly, wanting to leave Liu Changtian's office!

"Wait! Lao Zhang, I haven't finished talking yet! Don't be so discouraged, okay? ”

"How am I not discouraged. You can't look at such a good work, what else do I have to say, since I don't want to publish it, then forget it, what else do you tell me to do. ”

Although Zhang Chuan did not dare to contradict Liu Changtian, after all, he had been an old editor of the 'Chunya Publishing House' for more than ten years. In front of Liu Changtian, he can also show that he is not happy.

"Lao Zhang, that's the case, Mr. Sun didn't directly say that he wouldn't publish "Sanmao Wanderings". People said that it was okay to publish it, but it was just necessary to ask the author of this work, that is, the elementary school teacher named Xu Hong, to let him modify the story background of "Sanmao Wanderings" again. After that, let Mr. Sun take a look, if he feels that there is no problem, then it can still be published. ”

As soon as he heard Liu Changtian say this, Zhang Chuan's brows finally stretched again. It's just that this request is also a bit excessive. A work, the story background has been modified, is that still the original work!

"Oh, that's right, then I'll contact Xu Hong! See if he's willing to modify his work. If he wants to, he will revise it and publish it!"

Zhang Chuan listened to Liu Changtian's words, although he was still a little unhappy, but thinking about it, this was already the best ending, what else could he expect! Since the leader said so, he could only do it.

"Okay, that's it, I'm sorry for you, Lao Zhang. Liu Changtian was also a little embarrassed, after all, he was also very optimistic about Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", so he wanted to publish it directly! But Sun Yuanjie saw that there were some problems with this work, and he had to respect other people's opinions. I just hope that this guy named Xu Hong can revise his work again without caring about anything.

"Okay, I'll go back first. Zhang Chuan said, and then turned around and left the president's office again.

Back in his office, Zhang Chuan picked up the phone and made a call to Chen Dongshan first.

"Hey, is it Lao Chen!" Zhang Chuan directly called the elementary school where Chen Dongshan was.

"I'm Chen Dongshan, you're Zhang Chuan!" Chen Dongshan was in the office with the annual newspaper! As soon as he heard the phone ringing, he took the phone and heard who the voice was inside, so he also said something.

"I'm Zhang Chuan, Lao Chen! You should know what I called you!" Zhang Chuan didn't directly say anything about Xu Hong's manuscript, but sold it first.

"Oh, I think it must be that your publishing house is preparing to publish Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", isn't this a good thing!"

Chen Dongshan thought that when he and Xu Hong showed his manuscript to Zhang Chuan, he only read one chapter and made the story of this work fascinated, and felt that Xu Hong's work, the matter of publishing must be a matter of course, and there will be no twists and turns at all.

Therefore, now as soon as he receives a call from Zhang Chuan, he feels that Zhang Chuan must have come to tell him such a good thing.

"Hey, Lao Chen! I'm really embarrassed! Things are not as simple as you think, and they are not as simple as I imagined!"

"Oh, what's the matter, don't you President Liu like Xu Hong's manuscript!" As soon as he heard Zhang Chuan say this, Chen Dongshan, who was still smiling just now, suddenly became gloomy.

"It's not that President Liu doesn't like it, it's his mother's Sun Yuanjie who doesn't look down on it. ”

"Oh, what the hell is going on! Since you President Liu have taken a fancy to it, why can't it be published, what about this Sun Yuanjie, how can he be a writer, how can he be in charge of your publishing house. ”

After listening to Zhang Chuan's words, Chen Dongshan was a little puzzled.

"Hey, Lao Chen, don't be in a hurry to listen to me tell you slowly. ”

Zhang Chuan told Chen Dongshan everything he had heard from Liu Changtian before.

After hearing this, Chen Dongshan understood what all this was all about. I am willing to be this Sun Yuanjie who is making a stumbling block from it!

"Lao Zhang, let me tell you, this is Sun Yuanjie, I feel that Xu Hong's works are too well written, so he doesn't want to publish Xu Hong's works, I'm afraid that after Xu Hong's works are published, they will sell better than his works, and then at that time, he will not be able to keep his status as a great writer, he is purely envious and jealous of Xu Hong!"

As soon as he heard Zhang Chuan say about Sun Yuanjie, Chen Dongshan felt that this guy was jealous of Xu Hong's works, so he would say anything about the background of the story. Otherwise, how could such a good work not be published, and there is a question of the background of the story. This story, instead of the background of the old society, can it still use the background of the modern society! )
