Chapter 12 Editorial Department

Five people came into the editor-in-chief's office one after another, five editors-in-chief of Huaxia Youth Magazine.

After entering, they all waited in silence, because Zhongli walked to the photocopier in the corner, and was preparing something.

Six copies of a manuscript were made, and Zhongli walked over with it and beckoned a few people to sit down.

After they all sat down, Su Wei also sat at the end under the curious eyes of several people.

First introduced: "This is the new editor Su Wei, who resigned from there and will work together in the future." ”

The editors-in-chief are all surprised, and it is not surprising that even if the female editors in front of them are not capable enough, the editor-in-chief will be hired.

"But calling everyone over is not to know the beautiful editor......"

Zhongli made a joke first, and then said: "As a magazine, it is inseparable from the support of capital, so sales are very important, which is why I, a person who does not understand literature, became the editor-in-chief...... However, the most important thing is the quality of the magazine, readers don't buy it, and no matter how beautiful the magazine is, it's useless. ”

"The biggest criterion of a good magazine is undoubtedly the content."

"This is a manuscript handed in by Editor Su Wei, and everyone will first look at it with a professional eye, and then express their opinions."

The five editors-in-chief all looked at Su Wei with strange eyes.

Su Wei's face remained unchanged, and it is estimated that they are all speculating whether they want to use this manuscript as a step forward.

Zhongli handed out the manuscript.

The editor-in-chief's room resounded with the sound of turning pages, and the faces of the editors-in-chief changed from time to time.

The speed of reading the manuscript was very fast, and by the time the last female editor took her eyes off the manuscript paper, more than half an hour had passed.

"Done it all?"

All five editors-in-chief nodded.

Zhong Li said: "Then make a statement, and raise your hand in favor of signing this book." ”

"Brush!"

The four editors raised their right hands, and a female editor-in-chief in her thirties got up from the sofa with an excited face: "Editor-in-chief, you must sign it, it will definitely greatly increase the sales of our magazine!" ”

Only the eldest male editor, in his fifties, frowned and remained silent, looking down at the manuscript in his hand from time to time.

"Editor-in-Chief Wei, do you have a different opinion?" Zhongli asked.

Editor-in-Chief Wei shook his head, and then nodded again: "There are some different opinions, I want to ask Editor Su." ”

Su Wei looked at it, waved her hand and smiled: "Editor-in-Chief Wei asks, I know everything." ”

"Hehe," Editor-in-Chief Wei straightened up, patted the manuscript paper with his hand, and said, "Editor Su, this manuscript was originally submitted to young people?" ”

"Yes, but it was rejected by the editor-in-chief of the third room, and this manuscript was found by the original author after I left."

Editor-in-Chief Wei sighed: "So, Editor Su has already met the author?" ”

"Yes, but ......"

"But what?"

Su Wei smiled bitterly: "Maybe everyone doesn't believe it, the author is only seventeen years old and a high school student." ”

"What!" The female editor who was the first to speak out in favor of signing the contract exclaimed, and the others also showed surprise, even the editor-in-chief Zhongli looked over.

Editor-in-Chief Wei shrugged: "Then how can Editor Su be sure that this work was written by him?" ”

Su Wei was stunned: "Editor-in-Chief Wei means ......"

"Ghostwriting." A male editor interjected and said, "It's not unusual for something like this in the literary world, maybe it's his parents?" ”

"Impossible!" Su Wei cut the railway.

Editor-in-chief Wei said: "I don't know anything else, but once this work is serialized or published, this strange background setting and unique genre are different from today's works." It looks like the protagonist's autobiography, but in fact it is a fantasy literature. ”

Zhongli looked at Su Wei and suddenly asked, "Xiao Su, why is it impossible?" ”

"Editor-in-chief, editors-in-chief, if you've ever seen that teenager, you'll believe me." Su Wei was extremely entangled in her heart, and now that she thinks back, since she met Shen Zhe, she never seemed to have thought about ghostwriting, and she had too little editing experience?

It doesn't seem to be exactly.

The editors were silent, and Zhongli suddenly smiled: "Xiao Su, you said that the author is seventeen years old?" ”

"Yes."

"That's a genius author, if it's really my own work, it's a good thing, and if you're willing to cooperate with us, there's topicality."

"Now there's only one question, do you all think you should sign it?"

The five editors-in-chief and Su Wei all nodded.

"That's good, Xiao Su, you contact him again and go with me to visit this little genius."

……

China is not yet rich in material resources, and online shopping has not appeared.

Accustomed to moving his fingers, the courier brother delivered the goods to the door, and visiting the mall at this time actually gave Shen Zhe a novel feeling.

Shen Zhe began to look around with great interest, but Yang Xin tried on various clothes and fiddled around, and soon ran out of patience.

In the snickering of the waitress next to him, Shen Zhe followed behind Yang Xin in frustration, struggling to endure it.

By the time he got home, he was slumped on the couch and a dead dog.

Watching my mother fiddle with the results is really admirable.

After a while, I drank a glass of water and went to the study.

opened the literary network forum, and a large number of prompts popped up in an instant, which startled Shen Zhe.

"The foreshadowing in the true and false Monkey King" has been refined by the moderator "Drunk Red Face", look at the number of replies, the back shows four digits, and the peach blossom island owner next to the cartoon avatar has more than 300 personal attention.

Click on it to see that it was all caused by Sun Wukong's post.

2nd Floor: First Grab Sofa!!

3rd Floor: Sofa!

4th Floor: Ha, the sofa is mine!

Shen Zhe was speechless, they were all professional households robbing buildings, and they were quick and slow.

Pull down, it's all garbage follow-ups, all the way to the 70th floor: all the upstairs are going to die, the landlord God, go and see it for the second time!

71st Floor: Worship the landlord!

72F: After reading this post word by word, my heart can't be calm for a long time, shocked! Why is there such a good post? I've been thinking I've been in the game for years, and I thought I'd never have a post that would move me again, but I didn't expect to see such a brilliant post today.

This one is more watery.

After reading the first page of 200 follow-up posts, Shen Zhe didn't find readers who refuted him, the post was very hot, but he lost interest.

Influenced by the lack of literary works, both Chinese readers and authors seem to lack a spirit of skepticism and entertainment. Take Journey to the West as an example, there are many crooked legends and adaptations of various Journey to the West in the original time and space, including Journey to the West, as well as the unsolved mysteries of Wu Xianyun's Journey to the West, and so on.

Although some of them are purely entertainment, and some of them are also family words, it is not meaningless.

Besides, Huaxia still lacks "Romance of the Gods", a work that is inextricably linked to "Journey to the West".

Shen Zhe has no intention of carrying this work now, he is just a high school student, and works like "Fengshen" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are not something that a teenager can control just by looking at the words.

When the time comes, not only will it not be praise, but it will definitely be questioned.

It is also necessary to carry the works step by step, and it is a good choice to still be an online writer, but there is no novel website yet, so there is no way to talk about it.

It's best to start with campus novels or youth literature, and then your favorite martial arts novels.

The time still has to wait, at this stage, China's bulky desktop computers are not widely available, let alone laptops and smartphones. The people who can paddle on the Internet are still high-end people, and Shen Zhe spent so much effort when he wanted to buy a computer last year.

Shen Zhe knows that the development of the Internet is the trend of the times, and one day it will be overwhelming.

According to the development speed of the original time and space, once it appears, this general trend will be on fire within a few years, and that is the golden period of literary development.

I was about to close the post to read a book, when I suddenly remembered a novel.
