Chapter Seventy-One: An Editor with Unknown Talents
Yu's father just wanted to open his mouth to discuss with his wife whether to tell his son about this matter, but Yu's mother sat up from the bed suddenly: "I'll go check it." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"What are you looking for?" Yu's father was stunned.
"Check which of these two publishing houses is better, it's a big deal." Yu's mother said that she hurried to the study, and the computer was there.
Yu's father looked at his wife's back and thought to himself that women like to be excited when they encounter something, and it is still a question whether to publish this matter or not to tell his son.
As a father, of course he knows that his son has had a literary dream since he was a child, and this time when he encounters this kind of opportunity, he is afraid that he will not say a word, and he will firmly choose to take the road of writing from now on.
In fact, many people have literary dreams, and they were also when they were young, thinking about getting something for nothing, thinking about being a famous writer, there are too many people who think about this kind of thinking, either want to be a writer or want to be an actor, but how many can really succeed? Too little, pitifully little.
Now that my son is about to be in his third year of high school, and he will take the college entrance examination in another year, how can he take the wrong path at such a critical time? That's right, the vast majority of parents in the Dragon Kingdom think that other paths are crooked except for studying hard for the college entrance examination.
Yu's father also went to the study while thinking about it, and he had to discuss it with his wife.
"Lao Yu! This Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House is very powerful! Yu Ma shouted from afar, in fact, the Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House has long been down, but which publishing house you search for on the Internet is basically described as awesome, as if Mo Yan is their family.
"How awesome?" Yu's father asked casually, he had already decided in his heart that he would not tell his son about this, this middle-aged man firmly believed that it was good for his son to do this, and Yu Yan would understand his good intentions when he grew up.
Writing can be a hobby, but if you want to make a living, it's definitely not okay.
Yu's mother still doesn't know what Comrade Yu thinks: "That "Falling Leaves Full of Chang'an" was issued by this publishing house, and there is that ......"
""Falling Leaves Full of Chang'an"?" Yu's father said that he hadn't heard of it, but the name was not bad, and he felt that there should be a couplet in this sentence, which felt like the second half of an ancient poem.
"A book that is very popular among young people!" Yu's mother explained, looking very excited, how did she know that this was just bragging by the publishing house itself.
If the Dragon Kingdom can sell 30,000 copies, it can be called a bestseller, and this "Falling Leaves Full of Chang'an" is the only bestseller of the Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House recently, but how much gold is the title of bestseller? In fact, the book is not a hit at all, it just meets the criteria of a so-called bestseller.
And what are the sales of books that can really be called very popular? At least 200,000 copies, and now the most popular "Terran" on the market has sold 1.7 million copies, and the so-called "Falling Leaves Full of Chang'an" by Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House is just an exaggeration, and it is far from being really popular.
"Oh," Yu's father nodded, it was normal for young people to not know what was hot, "What about the Qindao Literary Publishing House?" ”
"That doesn't look as good as Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House." Yu's mother said with a frown.
This is mainly because Qindao Literary Publishing House has not boasted much on the Internet, in fact, the two are not very good, so Qindao Literary Publishing House is a little more real, and it does not look as good as Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House.
Yu's father nodded, thought about it, and looked at his wife's happy and excited appearance and was still embarrassed to interrupt, anyway, Yu Yan only came back in the evening, and he was not in a hurry to discuss this matter with his wife.
Then the two of them studied the two publishing houses one by one, of course, the questions were thrown by Yu's father, and the answers were answered by Yu's mother on Baidu's website, and they were very happy.
On the other side, Yu Yan was bored, he didn't know that the first difficulty on his writing road would actually come from his parents' concealment, and Yu's father firmly believed that he was doing it for his son's good.
I didn't think about going to the Internet café to complete the third-level prestige task, anyway, I was not in a hurry, Yu Yan went to the Chinese teacher's house again.
"Why are you here?" Liu Qi looked surprised.
Yu Yanxin said I miss you, of course, I'm not embarrassed to say it, it stands to reason that he is quite thick-skinned, but he is still embarrassed about this matter: "Uh......" Yu Yan, who was a virgin for twenty-three years in his previous life, naturally doesn't flirt with his sister, and he doesn't know what to say when he encounters this situation.
Liu Qi didn't smile at him when he looked embarrassed, and then the two watched TV and chatted.
"Oh yes, teacher, my essay is in the newspaper."
"Huh?" Liu Qi was stunned for a moment, "Just brag about it, I don't know how long it will be after the first prize is awarded." ”
"Really," Yu Yan thought to himself, I wondered, how could it be so fast, "Qi Provincial Daily sub-edition, I'll go find it and buy another copy." ”
Then Yu Yan bought another newspaper at the commissary on the other side of the community, and Liu Qi was naturally surprised to see that Yu Yan was on the newspaper so quickly. Of course, she was even more surprised when she saw the article "Believe in People", very surprised, and the same was true for Yu Yan, who had not read the other two before.
Looking at this "Believe in People" Yu Yan couldn't help but think of Mr. Lu Xun: I opened this article and checked, there is nothing else in this article, and every page is densely packed with the words that my father is the mayor, I can't sleep horizontally, I read it carefully in the middle of the night, only to see the words from the cracks, and the mayor is my father with five words written all over the book!
Now the two of them basically understand why they are in the newspaper so quickly, and Yu Yan can only say thank you, quite grateful! He didn't know that he almost couldn't win the first prize because of the problem of leading the children.
The two chatted for a while and went to school together, while an editor from the Qi Provincial People's Publishing House was also on his way to Moshi No. 1 Middle School.
Qi Provincial People's Publishing House, the scale and situation are much better than Qi Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House and Qindao Literature Publishing House, it is a relatively good publishing house, they took the initiative to contact Yu Yan mainly because they value his potential, and the contract prepared by this editor is also a little different from others.
The editor happened to be on a business trip in Moshi, and he didn't bother to call first after getting the task of the editor-in-chief, and went directly to Moshi No. 1 Middle School to find the high school student named Yu Yan.
On the way, he looked at the newspaper in his hand, and he didn't have much affection for this high school student named Yu Yan. He is also a young man who once had a literary dream, but his literary dream failed, and because of this, he dislikes these so-called geniuses very much.
Why didn't I have such a good opportunity in the first place? Why didn't a publisher find a publisher to publish his own work in the first place? This editor always thought that he would not meet his talents......
(It's finally done, so forgive me if there's something that doesn't go well or isn't quite right.) The publishing house has written several that you don't need to deliberately remember, just know that they are different, and everyone who will often appear will remember it slowly. )
