readx;? Chapter 360 Unhappy Parting

When I listened to Principal Chen's words, I was naturally very happy, and I thought that I would soon become a well-known children's writer. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Later, I worked with President Chen to bring my work to the 'Spring Sprout Publishing House'. After reading it, their editor Zhang also said that it was very good. I gave it to their editor-in-chief Chen. Editor-in-Chief Chen also said yes after reading it.

I just thought about the publication this time, and there must be no problem. I just want to sign a contract with 'Spring Sprout Publishing House'.

But who knows, and I don't know what happened later, their president Liu came to me and asked me to revise the background of the work. When I heard it, I was a little confused. Because the background of a literary work cannot be modified. It's not a performance on stage! You can just change the set. The plot and content of the novel are closely integrated with what the protagonist does and thinks, as well as the storyline of the entire work. How can it be possible to revise the background of a novel that has already been written? This is equivalent to writing another work.

So, I just couldn't accept it at the time, so I said a few angry words. But President Liu just looked down on me as a newcomer and said a lot of ridiculous things about me. I was so angry that I made a bet with him.

Now I am giving this work to your publishing house, hoping to publish it, so that I can save some face. ”

Xu Hong was happy for a while, so he gave all the things he had encountered before

Cheng Kunshan said it again.

When Cheng Kunshan heard this, he looked at Xu Hong and said: "Teacher Xu, you can rest assured now! It seems that their 'Chunya Publishing House' has no vision, and they don't know that your work is a perfect work, and they still revise it! Now it's okay, your work can be published in our publishing house, can you still become famous and profitable!"

"Okay, thank you for becoming the editor-in-chief, I hope there won't be any accidents this time!" Xu Hong was very happy in his heart. But I'm still a little worried, after all, the last time was when he felt the most comfortable, something went wrong. I don't know how it will happen this time, but he feels that there should be no problem this time, and that something unexpected will always happen.

Just as Xu Hong was chatting with the editor-in-chief Cheng, he heard someone walking towards him.

When Cheng Kunshan heard this, he stood up, and Xu Hong also stood up. Because they feel that it may be President Zheng who is back.

Sure enough, just as Xu Hong and Cheng Kunshan stood up, Zheng Tian came to Cheng Kunshan's office with a smile.

"President Zheng, you are back, he is Xu Hong, that is, the author of "Sanmao Wanderings". As soon as he saw Zheng Tian, Cheng Kunshan immediately introduced Xu Hong, who was standing on the side.

"Okay, Mr. Xu. ”

Zheng Tian said, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Xu Hong.

"Hello President Zheng. Xu Hong also looked at Zheng Tian and said with a smile.

As soon as he saw Zheng Tian's happy appearance, Xu Hong also felt that there was no problem with the publication of his works.

I want to talk to Mr. Xu alone, what do you think? Zheng Tian did not talk about the publication of "Sanmao Wanderings" first, but said that he would talk to Xu Hong first.

When Xu Hong heard this, he glanced at Cheng Kunshan.

Cheng Kunshan also glanced at Xu Hong and said with a smile: "Go ahead! You are so talented, of course President Zheng also wants to know how you created this story." ”

"Okay, here we go. ”

Zheng Tian took Xu Hong to his office.

After Xu Hong entered, Zheng Tian quickly invited Xu Hong to sit on the sofa in the office and poured Xu Hong a glass of water.

"President Zheng, can we talk about signing a publishing contract? Xu Hong still looked at Zheng Tian excitedly.

Zheng Tian sat at his desk, took a sip of water, and then said: "Mr. Xu's work is indeed good, but our publishing house has been a little tight recently, and it is still a little difficult to print and publish it immediately. In this way, you put the manuscript with me first, and then I will notify you to sign the contract after I have raised the funds first, and you will see how it goes. ”

Of course, Zheng Tian was embarrassed, and directly rejected Xu Hong. So I first said a tactful reason.

Although Zheng Tian said it very tactfully, when Xu Hong heard it, it was the same as directly refusing to publish his works.

"What the hell is the financial difficulty, how much money can it cost to publish a book! This is simply deliberately making an excuse, just don't want to publish Lao Tzu's works!"

As soon as he heard Zheng Tian's words, Xu Hong felt that he had suddenly fallen from the clouds of joy into a valley.

"President Zheng, can you tell me what you were doing outside just now?

When I saw that I had encountered such a thing again, I first said that I could publish it, and then I refused to publish it, so it was obvious that someone was making an obstacle again! And who could this person be? Of course, it must be that Liu Changtian.

Now when he heard Zheng Tian's words, Xu Hong's first thought was that Zheng Tian went to meet someone just now. And this person is Liu Changtian, it was Liu Changtian who said something to Zheng Tian, and then Zheng Tian changed his mind.

"Mr. Xu, I'm afraid you don't have the right to ask about this! Whether I went to see President Liu or not has nothing to do with you!"

As soon as he heard Xu Hong's words, it was obvious that he was angry, and Zheng Tian was naturally unhappy. I think, I'm also a president anyway, what are you Xu Hong, just a primary school teacher, what qualifications do you have to be awesome in front of me!

"If you say this, President Zheng is equivalent to admitting that you went to see Liu Changtian. Xu Hong is becoming more and more polite when he speaks, and his tone is also very tough.

"Enough, Xu Hong, I didn't want to say something ugly to you just now, but now it seems that you don't know how to lift, well, I just went to see President Liu. So what's the matter, I am good friends with President Liu, and he has said that your works are not very good, what else can I say! In any case, President Liu has more appreciative ability than me, and other people's 'Chunya Publishing House' is also more powerful than our 'Chuncao Publishing House'. I can't tear my face with my old friend because of you. ”

Seeing that Xu Hong was not polite to himself at all, Zheng Tian didn't plan to give Xu Hong face. Immediately, Xu Hong was counted.

Xu Hong listened to it now, but he was not angry, he said to Zheng Tian: "Haha! Okay, President Zheng, I really didn't expect that you and Liu Changtian are the same dog." Okay, give me the manuscript and we'll see you again!"

When Zheng Tian saw Xu Hong scolding him in person, he was also very annoyed.

"Hmph, you kid doesn't know how to lift, that's good, give you a broken manuscript, I see who else you take your broken manuscript to, let me tell you, in addition to our two publishing houses, there are several publishing houses, President Liu and I both know their presidents, you dare to be so arrogant in front of me now, then wait! Don't think about publishing this work in this life. ”

After Zheng Tian finished speaking, he picked up Xu Hong's manuscript, and then still went to the coffee table in front of him.

Xu Hong picked up the manuscript, then turned around and threw the door away.

And as soon as Xu Hong came out of Zheng Tian's office, he saw Cheng Kunshan head-on. Originally, Cheng Kunshan's face was always full of smiles. But as soon as he saw Xu Hong's face, his smile immediately froze.

"Teacher Xu, what are you ---" Seeing Xu Hong's angry face, still holding his manuscript in his hand, Cheng Kunshan was stunned for a moment.

"Goodbye to Editor-in-Chief Cheng!" Xu Hong took his manuscript and flashed in front of Cheng Kunshan, not saying anything to Cheng Kunshan at all.

Cheng Kunshan looked at Xu Hong's back, he was confused for a while, he didn't understand what was going on, he was still talking and laughing with Xu Hong just now! Why did Xu Hong get angry in a blink of an eye. What the hell is going on!

Cheng Kunshan thought as he walked into Zheng Tian's office.

As soon as he entered, he saw Zheng Tianzheng sitting at his desk with an angry face, smoking!

"President Zheng, what's going on --- this time, Xu Hong seems to be very angry---!

No wonder Lao Liu said that this kid has a bad temper, I can be regarded as a teacher today!"

"What the hell is going on! President Zheng, aren't you going to talk about signing a contract to publish "Sanmao Wanderings"? Why are you breaking up unhappily now!"

Looking at Zheng Tian's angry face, Cheng Kunshan couldn't figure it out. It's a good thing, but it's all angry.

Zheng Tian took another puff of his cigarette, then pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, looked at Cheng Kunshan and said: "Lao Cheng, you can't blame me for this! After reading Xu Hong's works, I felt that some of the chapters he wrote were not very good, and I wanted him to revise them slightly. I said that many new authors are like this, and their works are revised many times by the editors after they are published. Isn't this very normal, but guess what Xu Hong said? ”

When Zheng Tian said this, he paused, and then took another sip of water.

Cheng Kunshan wanted to know what was going on, so he hurriedly asked, "What did Xu Hong say?"

Zheng Tian took a sip of water, then looked at Cheng Kunshan and said: "He said, how did you become the president, there is a problem with my work, I have revised it several times, it can be said that it is perfect, and there is no need to revise it at all." If it is revised again, it will affect the overall quality of this work. ”

When Zheng Tian said this, he glanced at Cheng Kunshan again and said: "Listen, this is what a rookie author said in front of me, the leader of a publishing house who has been a publisher for more than ten years, if you change it to me, wouldn't you be angry!"

Cheng Kunshan listened to what Zheng Tian said, and he basically understood what was going on.

It's just that Cheng Kunshan doesn't understand it, because he has also seen Xu Hong's works. It's so perfect that it doesn't need to be changed at all.

And when he showed the work to Zheng Tian yesterday, he didn't say that there was anything wrong with the work, but only praised the work for being well written! Why did he change his mind after going out for a while today, and after he came back, not only did he not publish Xu Hong's work, but he also said that Xu Hong's work had problems, which is really strange.

Cheng Kunshan listened to Zheng Tian's words, looked at him and smiled and said, "What you said is that such a rookie author should also give him a look at his face." Yes, that newcomer's work was not published after we edited and revised it. ”

"So, this kid just doesn't know how to lift, so I coaxed him away. Isn't it just a "Sanmao Wandering"! What's so remarkable? I think there are a lot of problems in this work!"

Seeing Cheng Kunshan speaking for himself, Zheng Tian was somewhat psychologically balanced.

"However, President Zheng, I feel a little pity, this "Sanmao Wanderings" is really well written, if we don't publish it this time, I'm afraid we will miss a good opportunity to make money. ”

Cheng Kunshan has also been in the publishing house for many years, and he still has an appreciation for children's literature. He can see that the work "Sanmao Wanderings" is very well written, and it is a rare and excellent work.

"Why, do you really think so! Isn't there a better work than this one!" Hearing Cheng Kunshan's words, Zheng Tian was a little unhappy again.

Seeing that Zheng Tian was unhappy, Cheng Kunshan quickly changed his words again: "President Zheng, I mean to say that it is not easy to encounter a good work. Although "Sanmao Wanderings" is good, but it can't be because of this work, let all the people in our publishing house bow their heads to Xu Hong, don't worry, our publishing house receives a lot of authors every day, this time you can meet good works, you can still encounter them in the future. ”

"Well, yes, it's up to you to bother a lot in the future, and find another good one as soon as possible. Zheng Tian looked at Cheng Kunshan, and pinned his hopes on this middle-aged man again.

"Okay, I'll do my best. It's just that, President Zheng, you just said that there are some problems with Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings", what is the problem? ”

Thinking about what President Zheng said just now, Cheng Kunshan was also a little curious! Because he read Xu Hong's "Sanmao Wanderings" again, he felt that there was no problem, everything was perfect.

"Editor-in-chief, this is a matter of our vision, don't you see that the background of this section of the era is not very good! How can such a work attract the attention of children!

Today's children are all born under the red flag and grew up in the sunshine, and they have seen the old society as it were! They only like some advanced science fiction things, but they can't like these literary works that describe the old society. ”

As soon as he heard Cheng Kunshan say this, Zheng Tian had no choice but to tell Cheng Kunshan what he had heard from Liu Changtian about a 'major problem' about Xu Hong's works.

"Ah, is this the problem!" When Cheng Kunshan heard Zheng Tian's words, he felt a little speechless. (To be continued.) )
