On the first day, the sales of nearly 30,000 copies were surprising, which surprised the editors of Reading magazine, and also plunged everyone into a crazy surprise.

It was also on the night of this day that Comrade Tu Changshen, editor-in-chief of the "Reading" magazine, made an important decision with a stroke of his pen

An additional 50,000 copies of the "Reading" will be printed immediately.

However, Tu Changshen still underestimated the accommodating capacity of the market and the readers' enthusiasm for "Reading".

In just four days, 100,000 copies of Reading magazine were sold out in the market, and readers who did not buy the magazine called or sent letters to the editorial office. The orders from readers and the urging calls from Xinhua bookstores across the country made the editors in charge of the distribution work in the editorial department very busy and dizzy.

However, no one complained, although everyone was so busy with work that even their meals were solved in the editorial department, everyone's face was filled with surging enthusiasm and confidence. Especially when the editor-in-chief, Tu Changshen, took the call from their old leader and relayed it to everyone, it made everyone full of enthusiasm.

The old leader, who had braved the bitter cold to see them off at the Beijing railway station to board the southbound train, said on the phone

You guys did a good job beyond my imagination, and even when I saw this issue of Reading, I couldn't help but be shocked. "The Country Teacher" is well written, "Into the Modern" describing the rise of Britain and the beginning of "Re-reading No Forbidden Zone" is better written, you are very bold, not only Cao Yang's proposition that there is no forbidden area for reading, but also the world's condemnation, torture and science fiction, tsk, are all comrades who came out of our Yilian Bookstore, very good, very good, very great, very great."

In fact, when he knew that it was his old leader who called, Tu Changshen was still worried, he thought that he would be criticized by the leader, you must know that this issue of "Reading" almost touched a forbidden area, which is faintly contrary to the instructions of the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China on "not engaging in spiritual pollution on the ideological front." Not to mention that Gowen's science fiction novel was the first article in this issue of Reading magazine, and "Reading Without Forbidden Zone" is clearly out of the ordinary, very different from the caution of other magazines.

However, the old leader did not mention the worries hidden in the shadows, but praised "Reading" vigorously, praised all the editorial staff of the editorial department of "Reading", and when he hung up the phone, the old leader finally revealed a little, and his worries and worries were also said

"Reading" is to create this kind of pursuit of independent thinking, "the aura of free spirit, you can have so much courage to break through in the forbidden area of thought, such a joint bookstore spirit is very good, but because of the bold estimate of this issue of the magazine, it will definitely cause trouble, so you must calm down, stick to your own ethics, don't be afraid, remember that you are a joint people, a joint bookstore is your solid backing."

Just as the old leaders were worried, after Tuchangshen reprinted 100,000 copies of the magazine, after nearly two weeks of reciting it in the market and among readers, and after the attention of intellectuals, ideological circles, and critics, the "Reading" magazine finally set off countless repercussions.

In China, the current generation of people is extremely thirsty for books and knowledge, so magazines like "Harvest" and "Reader" can sell more than one million copies, which is abnormal in a special era, so Ba Jin used to be extremely worried and worried about the sales of "Harvest", not because he was worried that "Harvest" would sell too little, but because it sold too much.

However, this is the case with magazines that have cultivated a loyal readership and a fairly prestigious reputation.

For any magazine that has just been inscribed, its sales will always go through a slow upward process, and the first issue of the inscribed will often have the least sales.

For example, the Reader, a magazine that has sold millions of dollars after two years of development, only dared to issue bi-monthly sentences when it was first published, and the whole magazine only had good pages, but in such a month, the circulation was only 30,000 copies.

However, "Reading" is completely different, and it has sold 100,000 copies in just five days, and the market demand is still unsatisfied, and it still has to publish another 100,000 copies.

How can such an achievement not arouse the jealousy of some people.

What's more, an article published in the inaugural issue of the "Reading" magazine is walking at the intersection of the ideological circles, how can it not be controversial.

In China in the 80s, the ordinary public did not say that the entire literary circles "had tortuous attitudes in the ideological circles, the critics' circles, and even the government and the central government." The repeated ambiguity of the central government and its hesitation left and right made the ideological and critical circles drift like a boat in a storm, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right. This kind of swaying situation lasted until the mid-to-late nineties before it really calmed down.

So people who are malicious or who don't agree with it consciously start to attack Reading magazine in a huge torrent.

In fact, half a year ago, with the dust settled on Gowen's two comments on personal poultry values, China's ideological and theoretical circles have recognized that personal poultry values have slowly taken over humanitarianism. However, the restraint and coherence of the past few decades and the invisible but ubiquitous repressive conservative forces are still the mainstream of thought and criticism.

Criticism and attacks on "Reading" are still focused on Li Honglin's "Reading Without Forbidden Areas" and Gowen's "Village Teacher".

In order to build the brand, the editorial department of "Reading" selected all the articles in this training period were selected by the editors to invite them to be published, and the authors of this article who can be published in the magazine are not ordinary writers.

Li Honglin, the author of "No Forbidden Zone for Reading", was the deputy director of the theoretical bureau of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee at this time, and his previous work for several years was to buy books for Comrade **, which was a scare for several years of study with Comrade **, and it stands to reason that his article should not have any problems in theory, but in this way, there are still a large number of readers who believe in it and oppose it in the ideological and critical circles.

Most of the people who oppose the article "Reading Without Forbidden Areas" are worried that if they are open to reading, then in the case of no one to check them, will minors with immature minds be dyed by garbage literature, and some people bluntly say that if there is no forbidden area, the cultivation will occupy our cultural stage from now on.

And about Govyn's "Country Teacher" is relatively much simpler,

Because of the literary, flinching, and readable nature of "The Country Teacher", the literary world has remained almost silent, and the positive theme of "The Country Teacher" against ignorance, flying, dedication, and knowledge to change the fortunes of the birds has also made the critics who have been clamoring for science fiction to be bourgeois liberalization, flying commoditized literature, and science fiction to spread suspicion and distrust."

So, apart from the noisy chatter of a very small number of critics, only one professional in the scientific community stood up and published science fiction in other newspapers and publications, saying that this kind of behavior expressed their indignation, and they thought that science fiction was a bad thing that was not rigorous at all, and that it was the enemy of science.

The attack and opposition of public opinion is just a trivial matter, if this is the case, Tu Changshen will definitely be fearless, but he quickly received a call from the relevant department, fortunately, the editorial department of "Reading" has already been changed to Shanghai under the arrangement of the old leader, otherwise I am afraid that it will not only be a phone call, but also a door-to-door conversation.

In the Chinese media, there is a very strange word, and the relevant departments do not know how many reports that this word appears in the newsletter

The leaders of the relevant departments came to inspect and put forward their opinions

The relevant department that called Tu Changshen was actually not an outsider, and the person who called was one of the big leaders of the People's Publishing House."

We are still colleagues in the same unit, and we have also met.

But it was this secretary who criticized Tu Changshen on the phone, but Bei Hao didn't expect that Tu Changshen was not lower than him in terms of administrative level alone.

The only difference may be that Tu Changshen is from the United Bookstore, and he is from the People's Publishing House.

On the phone, this secretary said on behalf of the big leader, and said that it is very inappropriate to read the mention of no forbidden area, when you, as an editor of the People's Publishing House, do not respond to the response of the national publishing department, and openly reprimand science fiction, said

Listening to the strong Hunan accent of the aggressive person on the other side of the phone, who opened and closed his mouth to strengthen the party's leadership and strengthen Marxist ideological education, Tu Changshen finally couldn't help but argue loudly.

Tu Changshen said with a mocking tone, if you really read the article "Reading Without Forbidden Areas" carefully, you will know that the content of this article is mainly to break the spiritual shackles, and there is a paragraph in this article that says very clearly: For the editing, flying, translation, publication and distribution of books, we must strengthen the party's leadership and strengthen the position of Marxism.

Is there still a can't be a public Xunden science fiction, saying that the Ministry of National Publishing has issued a red-headed article? Why don't I know the force, maybe my position is too low, and I am not qualified to see this article, so why does Minister He Jingzhi of the propaganda not know about it, but this "Village Teacher" is what his old man agreed to publish

There was a gasp of breath on the other side of your phone, and then there was a snap, and the phone was abruptly hung up.

Listening to the busy sound in the microphone, for some reason, a smile appeared on the face of the soil chief shen yan sù, and then this smile retreated, and it was replaced by a resolute face,.
