Chapter 32 A Hundred Years of Cultivating People
Pan Yongqiang's recommendation was indeed rejected by the editor-in-chief Lin Xiaodao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The reason is: the quality of the article is too poor. As for the difference, Lin Xiaodao did not elaborate. Therefore, Pan Yongqiang is very sure that the editor-in-chief Lin Xiaodao wants to announce his personal vendetta.
If Pan Yongqiang's recommendation is rejected three times in a row, his editing score will drop, and with it, his salary and benefits will also drop. The editor's benefits are linked to the editor's score.
This is an era when it is customary to divide ranks, just as actors are divided into first, second, and third lines, and writers are divided into levels one to ten, so they editors naturally have to be divided into grades. The maximum editing score is 100, and the higher the score, the higher the corresponding benefits. The score of an average editor-in-chief is around 80, while that of an average editor is around 60.
Now Lin Xiaodao, the editor-in-chief of "Big Novel", obviously wants to toss Pan Yongqiang's old bones, but Pan Yongqiang is powerless to resist. He can't afford to quarrel with the editor-in-chief again over a manuscript.
Alas, thinking of these things, Pan Yongqiang felt dizzy. In other words, working under the hands of others, how can there be a reason not to be quiet? Yesterday he was just too angry, otherwise he wouldn't have made things so stiff.
And now, he didn't know how to explain it to the people.
As an editor, Pan Yongqiang knows very well that every author pins their hopes on their own manuscripts when they submit. If the manuscript is rejected, it will definitely be a great blow to the author's own self-confidence.
Although it will not discourage the author from abandoning the pen and entering business, it will make the author afraid of the genre covered in his own article.
Just like the criticizing "In the Restaurant" by Pingren, if it is returned, it is absolutely impossible for Pingren to submit it again to the 'big novel', and it is even possible that he will not write this type of article again.
Everyone knows that 'Big Novel' is one of the best magazines in China. It is equivalent to an alchemy stone, and most of the authors who send their works here have the idea of wanting to know how many catties and taels they have. If the manuscript is rejected, it is equivalent to a slap in the face to the author, and tell him harshly: you are not qualified enough.
Pan Yongqiang added the contact QQ of the people of Pinglang overnight, and a network name is QQ of the people of Ping. Judging from the speed at which the person applied through his friends, Pan Yongqiang was sure that this person must be a net worm.
"Is it the one who wrote "On the Restaurant"?"
"Yes, I am. You are? ”
"I'm the editor of "Big Novel", just call me Lao Pan."
"Old Pan is good."
"Hello, I read your manuscript and it's well written."
Liu Shuiwen smiled at the computer and thought, this is Mr. Lu Xun's article, of course it is good. Mr. Lu Xun is the founder of modern literature, and even Chairman Mao once said: The direction of Lu Xun is the direction of the new culture of the Chinese nation!
As a cultural giant of the 20th century, Mr. Lu Xun made great contributions to a series of literature such as novels, essays, and essays. At the same time, he was also a great revolutionary. In the literary movement, he declared war on the old feudal culture and constantly struggled against the old ideology and culture that oppressed the people. His pen is simply more powerful than the barrel of a gun.
Although he had already worshiped Mr. Lu Xun in his heart to the point of throwing himself to the ground, Liu Shuiwen still replied familiarly: "Where, it's just a work of practicing pen, Lao Pan, you are too awarded." ”
Practicing the pen? Pan Yongqiang was shocked by the understatement of the people. The work of practicing the pen can be written so contemporaneously and critically, what if it is specially written? Isn't that about a cultural wave?
Tut-tut, it's really a master in the folk.
"Alas, it's a pity that I can't get this short story of yours in our magazine right now." Pan Yongqiang replied.
Liu Shuiwen frowned suspiciously, and quickly coded: "What do you mean?" Didn't you say the article was good? Why can't I publish it? Is this article contrary to our policy or some of our regulations? ”
Seeing that the people were a little excited, Pan Yongqiang hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, it's not for these reasons, it's because I offended the editor-in-chief of our editorial office before. Today I strongly recommend your article, I didn't expect that he would retire your article because of personal abolition. ”
"That's all, that's nothing. If it's because you don't think this article is eligible to be published, it might be a blow to my confidence. Since it was because of your personal grudges that the pond fish were harmed, then I can see it. ”
"I didn't expect you to be so open-minded. I was originally worried that you would be sad because of the rejection, so I specially added you QQ to contact you. ”
"And what are you going to do with this short story now?" Liu Shuiwen asked.
The other party seemed to think for a moment, and then replied: "Do you want to wait no longer?" Wait until I've convinced the editor-in-chief, and then I'll bring you good news? ”
"That's fine."
"Now I want to ask, how old are you?"
Liu Shuiwen's finger shrank on the number key, and then snapped a few words: "Could it be that your 'big novel' has an age limit?" ”
"Not really, it's just a personal curiosity. Like your article, as soon as you look at the writing skills, you will know that it is written by a person who has experienced many vicissitudes. Every word in the text seems to be like an independent story, which is intriguing. ”
"Old Pan, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. In fact, I'm just a rookie, not a character who has experienced vicissitudes. Besides, who hasn't had a bad life at all? If a little unsatisfactory is called a vicissitude, then I may be counted, but actually, I don't think so. ”
"Listening to your words, I suddenly feel like I've been reading for ten more years, hahaha."
"Are you going to say 'listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years'?"
Pan Yongqiang stared blankly at the computer, his heart beating faster. Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years? He pondered the sentence, then slammed the table and muttered, "Good sentence! What a sentence! ”
He hurriedly asked the people: "Is this 'listening to your words, better than reading a book for ten years' come up with you?" ”
Well, Liu Shuiwen's head instantly felt like water. He felt that it was too dangerous, and he always said a famous sentence or two at every turn. What's even worse is that the ignorance of the famous sayings of the past in this era is simply outrageous.
Therefore, if Liu Shuiwen is not careful, he is likely to become a big man in the world. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
It is said that if Liu Shuiwen is really famous, it is estimated that the future life will not be as comfortable as it is now, but he will have to deal with piles of trolls or black powder every day.
Now he is only a second-year junior high school student, and student life has always been what Liu Shuiwen misses the most, so he is not very happy to break his current lifestyle. Then, he has to think carefully about whether his road to fame should be fanfare or low-key and introverted.
This is a sentence from a long time ago, but fewer people know about it. By the way, I want to tell you something. Liu Shuiwen instantly changed the topic.
Pan Yongqiang asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"I want to change my pen name, do you think it's okay?"
"Why change your pen name? Isn't your current pen name a good one? ”
"It's not good, this is the name of the author of an online novel I read, and I thought it was very good at the time, so I used it, but now that I think about it, if this short story of mine can really be published in the future, then when others see this name, they will mistakenly think that it was written by the author of those online novels."
"I see, what pseudonym do you want to change?"
Liu Shuiwen thought about it for a while, and finally decided to use Mr. Lu Xun's name 'Shuren'.
When Pan Yongqiang saw the word 'tree man' in the dialog box, his brow tightened, and his wrinkled face was distorted.
What does this 'tree man' mean? Only at this moment did he realize that although he graduated from the Department of Chinese, compared to the author who is now renamed 'Shuren', he is simply an ant.
Liu Shuiwen saw the question sent by Pan Yongqiang, and just replied lightly: "If you have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely tell you what this 'tree man' means." ”
What does Treant mean?
As the so-called ten-year tree and hundred-year-old tree, isn't that what it means?
