"Tuk Tuk ......"

Liu Liangfan was reviewing the manuscript in his office when there was a knock on the door. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Please come in!"

Liu Liangfan shouted, did not raise his head, and continued to look at a draft in his hand, the manuscript was sent by Harvest Magazine, the content is that the young writer Xiao Fei has another blockbuster work came out, a long story of more than 490,000 words "Life and Death Fatigue" will be published in full in the third issue of "Harvest" magazine in 1998 and the spring and summer volume of the 98 novel special issue.

This news, there are no bright spots.

Xiao Fei's new work is considered cultural news, but it is not suitable for large-scale reporting.

Liu Liangfan said in his heart.

He is the editor-in-chief of the cultural news section of Xinmin Evening News. The draft of the Harvest was quickly placed on his desk for his consideration.

Liu Liangfan has been pondering the news highlights of this press release.

After pondering for a long time, he decided to send only a small message of a few hundred words, focusing on introducing the text characteristics of "Life and Death Fatigue".

The door opened.

A reporter from the department walked in, holding a fax in his hand.

"Editor-in-Chief Liu, it's a big event, the writers in this city collectively signed and sent a letter of accusation, accusing "Harvest" of suppressing old authors, take a look." The reporter said.

"Oh? Another harvest-related manuscript? Liu Liangfan raised his eyebrows and received the fax handed over by the reporter.

"In order to make way for young authors, you actually withdrew the manuscripts of old writers, you are too snobbish in "Harvest"!"

Liu Liangfan whispered the title of the fax.

He immediately realized that the indictment he was holding in his hand now would not be related to Xiao Fei's new work, right?

Liu Liangfan hurriedly read on.

He read it so quickly that it took him less than a minute to finish.

After reading this indictment, Liu Liangfan was very excited. He was acutely aware that this might be big news!

In order to publish the young writer Xiao Fei's new work "Life and Death Fatigue", "Harvest" actually withdrew the manuscripts from the two issues of the magazine that had been confirmed to be published.

And this kind of behavior has seriously damaged the interests of old writers such as Qian Guoyun, and at the same time, it has also made many non-first-line writers feel a huge threat: if the manuscripts of Qian Guoyun and others are withdrawn for Xiao Fei's new works today, will they withdraw their own manuscripts because of the new works of other famous artists another day?

So, now they are united and are going to fight.

The means of this protest seem to be quite intense, and they even use the level of writing a complaint, co-signing, and sending faxes to the media.

This form of protest is already big news, and if it is reported, it will cause a big uproar.

With Liu Liangfan's understanding of "Harvest", he knows that "Harvest" is a publication that attaches great importance to reputation and will never mess around.

"Harvest" is now withdrawing other people's manuscripts in order to send Xiao Fei's manuscripts, which can only show one point, that is: Xiao Fei's manuscript must be as Harvest said, it is an epoch-making masterpiece!

Now, what should this news article do?

Liu Liangfan touched his nose, he didn't hesitate for too long, he reacted, and quickly sent two reporters, one reporter went to interview Editor-in-Chief Xiao and Editor Cheng, and the other reporter went to Qian Guoyun for an interview.

After sending the reporter out, Liu Liangfan directly contacted the reporter of this newspaper in Beijing by phone and asked him to find a way to contact Xiao Fei and find a way to do an exclusive interview with Xiao Fei.

The media that received Qian Guoyun's fax from the magic capital were all jumping.

And the capital is almost the same.

Let's say that in the afternoon of this day, not long after going to work, Editor Cheng was busy nervously, and he heard the noise in the corridor outside the big office door.

He frowned, and said in his heart, who is so unqualified and makes such a big fuss.

He was about to get up to check the movement, when a colleague ran in and said to Editor Cheng, "Director Cheng, there are reporters outside who want to interview you." ”

"Which media?" Cheng editor asked.

"Xinmin Evening News, Wen Wei Po, News Morning News, reporters from several media are here." The colleague said.

"Well, got it, let them go to the conference room and wait, I'll go over now." Editor Cheng said calmly. He thought that these media were here to find out about Xiao Fei's new work.

In the morning, Editor Cheng asked people to send out the press release.

He wondered that the media should react too.

The big media generally don't follow the press release, they definitely have to do the interview again, and then the reporter will write the script.

This is also normal.

However, Editor Cheng felt a little strange, could it be that Xiao Fei's influence was already so great? When the news of a new work coming out came out, so many media were interested and came to interview.

This is a bit of an anomaly.

Editor Cheng sorted out his thoughts, took the notebook, held his water glass, and walked towards the conference room.

Walking into the conference room, he noticed that something was not quite right.

In the conference room, there were more than a dozen reporters sitting or standing, and even people from Modu TV came with cameras on their shoulders. This is a bit big.

Seeing Editor Cheng coming in, the reporters hula all came over and asked questions:

"Hello Editor Cheng, may I ask, do you know the news that writer Qian Guoyun contacted more than 200 writers to jointly sign a protest against your company's withdrawal of his novels?"

"Cheng Bian, what I want to ask is, do you think it is unfair and the spirit of contract for your agency to withdraw the works of Qian Guoyun and other writers that have been determined to be issued in order to make room for the publication of the new works of the young writer Xiao Fei?"

"Editor Cheng, many people think that your harvest is the benchmark of large-scale literary publications in China, and your magazine has always judged heroes by the quality of their works. As far as I know, although Mr. Qian Guoyun's long story, which was originally planned to be published in your magazine, is only more than 180,000 words, it has been revised several times and revised for more than a year. And Xiao Fei's new work "Fatigue of Life and Death" was written in two or three months, and the length of the work is more than 490,000, which makes people doubt that a long work in a hurry, written in such a hurry, can be of better quality than what Mr. Qian spent three or four years to create? ”

"Editor Cheng, the writers seem to be very dissatisfied with some of your recent practices, I wonder if your magazine has done a good job of relevant solutions?"

Editor Cheng only felt a "buzz" next to his ears, and his brain was stirred into paste. (To be continued.) )
