Chapter 97: Harvest Magazine for September

Inside the height office of the editorial office of Harvest.

Govin looked at the "Harvest" magazine with a plain cover in his hand, and his heart was full of pride.

I finally relied on my ability to publish an article in the most first-class pure literary journal in China, "Harvest" magazine. This article is not a complete plagiarism, it is an independent creation based on an article from my previous life, and it is the condensation of my own hard work. It is such an article of five or six thousand words that proves that he can become a real writer and can write one of the best literary works in the country.

I still need to learn from it, but I believe that one day I will be able to get rid of the influence of those literary masterpieces in my previous life and create a unique work that is truly my own!

Gewen took a deep breath, then looked up at Li Yu, who was smiling and silent across the table, and said sincerely: "Uncle Li, thank you, otherwise my "Taoist Tower" will have to wait a month before it can be published." ”

"It's your kid's luck." Li Yu laughed and waved his hand, "If your article is not good, no matter how much I want to help you, I can't publish it in Harvest magazine!" ”

After saying these words, Li Yu handed the envelope in his other hand to Gowen, and then joked: "You kid really want books and don't need money, as soon as you rush in, you rush in and ask me for a sample journal, and you don't even look at this manuscript fee, if all the authors are like you, then our "Harvest" magazine can make money." ”

Ge Wen smiled, took the envelope containing the manuscript fee from Li Yu's hand, and said, "Haha." Uncle Li, you are really joking, if there is no manuscript fee, I am afraid that the "Harvest" magazine would have closed its doors long ago because there was no manuscript. Although every author would like their article to be published in Harvest magazine. But if there is no manuscript fee, they drink the northwest wind. Even those crazy literature lovers are no exception, don't look at them now stay outside the editorial office all day long, and submit a copy of their work when they see an editor, but after they really publish their work, it is estimated that they will also worry about the manuscript fee. Therefore, Uncle Li, your wish is destined not to come true. Haha......"

"You kid. It's really sharp-toothed, I really don't know what Ba Lao values about you, and he actually keeps you by his side to cultivate! Li Yu was speechless by Gowen's counterattack. I could only shake my head and smile bitterly.

Ge Wen smiled and folded the envelope into his trouser pocket, then looked up at Li Yu and asked, "By the way, Uncle Li, you see, I just received the manuscript fee." Why don't I ask you to rub it off tonight? Let's be in that Liuwei Zhai? ”

"Nope. I have something to do tonight, next time. Li Yu shook his head.

Ge Wen came up to Li Yu and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, you won't go out with your aunt at night to have an intimate two-person world, right?" ”

"Get out, you little red guy, no big or small......" was teased by Gowen, Li Yu suddenly got a little angry, so he made a gesture to hit Gowen, but unfortunately Gowen had already laughed and rushed out of the office.

As soon as I got out of the office. Govin returned to normal. He and Li Yu are used to being familiar, and Li Yu has a gentle personality. I don't like to put up the shelves of my predecessors, so the two of them are not big or small. However, Govin and the other editors did not reach the kind of tacit understanding that was neither big nor small, and if he joked without knowing the seriousness, he would definitely be disgusted. And I also need to be steady, so that in this circle of seniority, I will not give other editors the feeling that they are hairy boys who are not good at work.

Glancing at the two magazines in his hand again, Govin couldn't help but smile a little at the corner of his mouth, and his right hand holding the magazines couldn't help but tighten tighter.

After greeting a few editors he met, Govin walked out of the editorial office of Harvest refreshed.

On the way home along the road, Govin still couldn't help but lower his head and flip through the sample issue of Harvest magazine in September.

What catches the eye is a very simple cover, half dark blue and half light yellow, the cover is split in half in a way of one-third and two-thirds, and at the junction of the two colors is written vertically with information such as publication number and magazine company. On the dark blue cover, which occupies two-thirds of the cover, is written in two large cursive scripts, Harvest, and under it is the pinyin alphabet of the word Harvest. The whole cover is understated and atmospheric.

When I opened the catalog, I saw that it was divided into novellas, short stories, poems, essays, novels and many other columns, and my own "Taoist Tower" was under the "Respite of History" column in the prose column.

"Taoist Tower" ............................................................... Gowen, p. 54.

Clear-eyed.

Govin followed the page and went straight to page 54, and then he saw his own "Taoist Tower"-

One

Outside the gate of Mogao Grottoes, there is a river, there is a vacant land across the river, and several monks are built high and low. The tower is round, close to the gourd, and the outside is white. Judging from several collapsed, a wooden stake is erected in the center of the tower, and the surrounding is made of yellow clay, and the base is made of blue bricks. Historically, the monks of the Mogao Grottoes were not wealthy, and proof can be found here. As the sun sets, the wind is cold, and this dilapidated tower group looks even more sad.

……

The article is still divided into five subsections as I wrote, and the content during the period is almost unchanged. It is only in the upper left corner of the title "Taoist Tower" that there is a subtitle - "The Respite of History", which is used to prove that this "Taoist Tower" belongs to the prose column.

Govin quickly read his article again, then gently closed it in his hand, smiled and walked forward.

While the September issue of Harvest didn't feature "Generation" as it did last time, it was a huge win for Govin to get published. What's more, Govine also firmly believes that even if his article is unknown, when this issue of "Harvest" magazine comes out, his "Taoist Tower", which is buried in many novels, poems and prose, will definitely cause a huge response from readers, and will be excerpted separately for everyone to marvel and praise!

This is because although the other works published in this issue of "Harvest" magazine maintain the same standard as "Harvest" magazine, none of them have the same great artistic charm and ideological reflection effect as the "Chess King" published in Ah Cheng in the previous two issues. Although there are many articles published in the first issue of "Harvest" magazine, his "Taoist Tower" is definitely an outstanding work that stands out from the crowd, and he is naturally a well-deserved uncrowned king!

I believe that!

The sun is setting from the west to the horizon, and the fiery clouds on the horizon are brilliant, indicating that tomorrow will be another bright day.

On the afternoon of August 28, 1983, the editors of the editorial department of Harvest magazine had checked the sample issue again, singing songs of joy and harvest, and kept flowing from the equipment of the printing house. Printers tied them in bundles with nylon rope and sent them to the Shanghai Post Office by car.

There, the postal workers who had been waiting for a long time would arrange bundles of magazines according to the region, and wait for them to be delivered to all parts of the country by various means of transportation, such as cars and trains, the next morning.

As a result, on September 1, 1983, the most visible counters of bookstores and bookstalls across the country appeared in the new "Harvest" magazine to welcome those readers who were waiting for their breasts.

Govyn believes that on that day they will be surprised and crazy again, just because in September there is their own "Taoist Tower"!
