Chapter 109: Too Young
At the end of August, Shen Zhe received a call from home.
Versace, the head teacher of the third year of high school, found the family, wanted to see him, and asked for the phone number.
After waiting for two days, Shen Zhe met the former head teacher in an ordinary hotel room.
"Teacher Fan, why did you come to Yanjing in person, is there anything you can't say on the phone?" asked Shen Zhe.
Versace took out his briefcase: "I want to talk to you face to face about this." What he took out was a stack of test papers, "Some time ago, I checked all your Chinese language test papers in junior and senior high school, including monthly exams, midterm exams, and annual exams, a total of about 80 ......"
Shen Zhe was stunned: "All my national language test papers?"
"Yes, I finally found that the composition part can be scored with full marks, Shen Zhe, do you remember?"
Of course, Shen Zhe knows that the essays in junior high and high school, almost all of which are selected with full scores, are not surprising.
"It's nothing to watch one on its own, but it's shocking to watch it together. Versace looked at the former student in front of him with strange eyes.
“…… Then Mr. Fan, are you looking for me?"
"Of course it's been published, these sample essays are very helpful to middle and high school students, I want to ask for your opinion, and do I need to revise them?"
"Fan Wen?"
"Well, writing essays is not like creating, junior high school students spend a vacation to memorize a few sample essays, and the level of composition can immediately increase a lot. If your essay on these exams is published in a collection, it will definitely be a very good extracurricular reading. ”
Shen Zhe didn't think about this problem, but in his vision, he was also the best of the best at the beginning, and the publication was definitely qualified.
"Yes, that sounds good. ”
"I'm here to let you see again, maybe you've long forgotten if you have any new ideas, and you need your authorization. ”
"Teacher Fan, there is no need to revise, you can find Oriental Magazine to do the publication. ”
Versace smiled: "I know you run a magazine. ”
In the end, Shen Zhe still checked it and sent Versace away, which was a surprise.
……
At the headquarters of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles at this time, the old gentleman did not have any joy on his face.
"Since that's the case, in the name of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, is it to pull us into the water?"
On the sofa opposite sat a vice minister surnamed Feng of the Ministry of Education, who smiled bitterly when he heard this: "People are terrible, and I know that I am scolded and pressured." ”
"In other words, this essay is simply a formality?"
"Well, the results have been decided a long time ago, and it seems that the response is good so far. As for the essays, divert the public's attention, sir, you don't think there will really be any great work, do you?"
"That maybe, there are so many authors in China, and they are open to writing. The old gentleman said lightly.
Vice Minister Feng frowned: "That's okay, let's see when the time comes." ”
Some people always think that they can control a qiē, but in fact, there are too many people in the world to know things, and there are no secrets at all.
The purpose of the essay was quickly known to those who were interested.
It was hard to hide a secret, worse than not letting the hen lay eggs, and soon the whole country became aware of it.
"Damn, you don't want us to supervise, so you make small moves in private, it's too unusual!"
"Where is the slightest government department's bearing!"
Some experts and scholars in the field of education also wrote articles criticizing the major media, and for a while, the two major departments stole chickens and rice, and everyone shouted and beat them. Vice Minister Feng, who was in charge of this essay call, had to come out to refute the rumors and confirm the rigor of this event.
When Shen Zhe learned the news, in addition to lamenting again that the world was too complicated and he was too young, he also found it very interesting.
He had long discovered that the Chinese people had a high degree of participation in government work.
However, it is useless, and it is similar to the people of the United States, and they are often the object of being played.
Which is better to be played or to be managed?
Once the impact is generated, it is not much use to just refute rumors, and many well-known domestic authors have made it clear that they will not participate.
For the author's writings, the most important thing about the more recognized classic articles is a flash of inspiration. Therefore, many characters who have been famous for a long time have only a few representative works, and some of them must be screened out if they can be selected for the textbook.
The exposed news solved a faint doubt in Shen Zhe's heart, and the Ministry of Education's essay sounded a little unreliable.
The original plane had never heard of such a thing.
However, it can be explained by "some government departments are sometimes unreliable".
"Are you still participating?" asked the old gentleman one morning.
"Participate. ”
"It's okay to participate, but it's okay for your article to pass the first round, and it's almost selected for the textbook, and the excerpt is okay. ”
Shen Zhe smiled bitterly again.
……
At the end of August, Zhong Litong guò contacted Shen Zhe online.
"White Hair" has been serialized to the sixteenth time, exactly more than halfway, according to the general process, 200,000 words per volume, just two volumes.
"Xiao Zhe, is it published now?"
Shen Zhe thought for a while and refused: "Brother Zhong, wait a little longer, it will be published in five issues, or the whole book will be published together." ”
"After five periods?"
Zhongli on the opposite side immediately opened the document, and it should be the twenty-sixth time after five issues.
――[Sword breaks into the famous mountain, red face looks for confidant, glowing valley, white hair for green silk]
"Haha, I see, you want to wait for this episode to come out and reach * before publishing, it's a good idea!"
Shen Zhe smiled: "You also think it's good, right?"
"During this time, seven or eight editors were recruited, and Lao Wei took a break and began to prepare for publication, because it had just been released for eight issues, and none of the new authors had met the publication requirements, and it was up to you to take the top. ”
Shen Zhe: "Dragon Tiger"?"
"Hmm. ”
"Okay, let Uncle Wei watch it. Shen Zhe suddenly remembered Versace's incident, "Recently, someone may have come to the door and published a collection of my essays. ”
"Fan Wen?"
"Yes. ”
Zhong Li said: "We are not suitable for that kind of book, should we recommend it to the Southern Education Publishing House in the name of the magazine?"
Shen Zhe was stunned for a moment: "It's because I didn't think it through, do what you want." ”
Zhongli said again: "The development is still too slow, martial arts are niche after all, Xiao Zhe, write another youth novel?"
"Brother Zhong, remember that you seem to have said that you are optimistic about the prospects of martial arts?"
Zhong Li said: "People like me don't care what type it is, as long as it sells well." The problem is not that there are no prospects, it is more than enough to support a medium-sized magazine, but it is difficult to be accepted by the mainstream readership, unless you can create a martial arts novel that is a sensation in China. ”
"Hehe, let's wait and see, isn't this just the beginning?"
"That's right, I'm a little anxious, but I always think you have some plans, can you tell me first?"
"Bestsellers aren't hard to ......"
Suddenly, Shen Zhe was stunned and realized that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
At present, the largest readership in China should be history, and those who know every word love to read history. Maybe he has lived here for too long, and subconsciously thinks that history is strict, but he almost forgot that one of his favorite history books is not strict at all.
- "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"
Some people say that this book is not a history book, and if you use Croce's point of view, there is no history without the present, it is a history book.
It's just that the writing of the novel is added.
It has sold more than 10 million copies in the world for five years, and although it has been stained with the express train of Ming history fever since 06, it is also one of the classics of history books.
If it appears in this time and space, it will definitely be very exciting for the Chinese people.
Shen Zhe rubbed his head.
