Xiao Hongda is getting better and better in the Huaxia Continent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the early years, when he came to the mainland of China, it was the heyday of the bend economy, and the bend people at that time did not look down on the Chinese mainlanders, and they all felt that going to the mainland to develop was a very bad thing. Even until 2001, the people of Wanwan felt that the Chinese mainland was so poor that they couldn't even afford instant noodles and tea eggs.

But Xiao Hongda didn't think so, he always felt that the development potential of the Huaxia Continent was huge, so he shifted the focus of his career from the small island of the bend to the Huaxia Continent very early. In order to build his network in mainland China, especially in the overseas listed literary circles, he spends at least half of his time in the overseas listed literary circles every year, and he also regularly participates in various activities organized by the overseas listed literary circles.

On this day, he came to the magazine "Maritime Literature" as a guest again. "Maritime Literature" magazine is also an old pure literary journal, which once led the trend of pure literature, and belongs to the kind of literary and artistic youth who feel that it is awesome when they mention it, but now it is inevitably declining.

Despite this, due to his various positions in the system and the strong voice he occupies in the Overseas Listed Writers' Association, Xiao Hongda also has to deal with them frequently. Because Xiao is a more atmospheric person, in the maritime dialect, he is more eloquent, and he often sends a lot of editors some practical things, which makes those editors happy to associate with him.

On this day, he brought several packets of crooked pineapple cakes, sun cakes, and some handicrafts of the Gaoshan tribe to visit the editor of "Maritime Literature". The purpose of his trip was to promote Zheng Long.

In his opinion, if Zheng Long wants to really break through Zhang Xue's encirclement and successfully publish his first simplified version of the physical book in mainland China, it is obviously not enough to rely on works and sales figures alone, and it still needs a lot of human contacts and movements. As his Bole, he has an unshirkable obligation.

As soon as he entered the "Maritime Literature" magazine, Xiao Hongda greeted the familiar editor with a smile:

"Lao Li, where are you!"

"Old Xiao! What the wind is blowing you in! ”

This old editor, who wears a black frame and is nearly five years old, is Li Lingfeng, the soul editor of "Maritime Literature". is a chivalrous and righteous person, known as the "timely rain" in the literary world, quite the style of Song Gongming's elder brother back then.

The most awesome deed of this brother is that he once scolded the well-known best-selling suspense novel writer Zhang Xue at a drinking party, because the two had different views on literature.

Zhang Xue, a person, never thought about standing up for morality in his bones, but wanted to use literature to make quick money and achieve his financial freedom from the beginning.

And an old editor like Lao Li, after all, grew up in the 80s with literary ideals, and had experienced the era of poetry masters such as Beidao, Gu Cheng, and Shu Ting, as well as novel giants such as Wang Anyi, Ye Zhaoyan, and Su Tong, and still has a certain pursuit of literature.

And at that cocktail party, the short-tempered Zhang Xue and the equally short-tempered Lao Li quarreled, if it weren't for the timely persuasion of the people around them, the fight would have started every minute...

Therefore, Xiao Hongda's choice of this Lao Li also has a posture of winning over his comrades.

"Lao Li, I came this time and brought you some crooked specialties, you all have a good taste."

Lao Li looked at the pineapple cake and the sun cake, and quickly looked away: "You don't fool me, let's talk quickly, what do you want to do this time..."

"Haha, I still can't hide from your fiery eyes! Then I won't beat around the bush. That's right, I would like to introduce a new person to you, his work, I am sure you will like it. ”

"Oh? Which newcomer is such a big name, let our editor-in-chief Xiao recommend it, then I have to take a look, is there any of his works? ”

Xiao Hongda did not directly take out Zheng Long's work, but took out a data report and handed it to Lao Li.

"Don't worry, you take a look at this first!"

"What is this?"

Lao Li took the data sheet with doubts, glanced at it, and knew that it was the book sales record of this month.

In all the lists, it is the local writers who occupy the dominant position, whether it is novels, poetry, essays, teaching books, and business books.

It is also normal, after all, Wanwan has always been a place with a flourishing literary style in the Chinese region, and it has also given birth to famous artists such as Gu Long.

"Huh?"

At a glance, it seems that this form is not different, but if you take a closer look, the person who occupies the first place on the list of novels is actually not a bent person?!

"Lao Li, do you see something?"

"Hmm... This Zheng Long... Are we from the Chinese mainland? How do I seem to have a little impression of him... Where did I hear this name, I can't remember it for a while..."

At this time, another younger editor, also wearing black-framed glasses and being very bookish, came up and said, "Isn't this the Zheng Long who made a big show at the banquet!?" I read the song "In the Mirror" in the newspaper, and it was really well written! What's wrong? He also writes novels? Yo, it seems that it's not just that you can write, it's just the data of best-selling novelists..."

Xiao Hongda smiled mysteriously: "Everyone, you may have forgotten that this data is the data in Wanwan Island, and there are only more than 20 million people in Wanwan, which is not as many as the people in a province on the mainland..."

"Yo, according to such estimates, if he publishes this novel in the mainland, won't he sell five or six million copies?"

The young editor muttered to himself, his eyes filled with disbelief!

"I can't say that, after all, book publishing can't be calculated simply, and there are many complex factors involved, such as distribution, sales strategy, etc., which is not calculated like this..."

However, Lao Li immediately changed his words again: "However, if you can get such good data in a fiercely competitive market like Wanwan, you will definitely succeed compared to the Huaxia Continent!" After all, the two sides of the strait are of the same origin! ”

Xiao Hongda saw that his goal had been achieved, and hurriedly added: "Hey, it's a pity that such a very talented and promising author, but due to the personal likes and dislikes of some senior writers in our literary world, the opportunity to publish a simplified version of the book was ruined!" ”

"Shenma?"

The young editor couldn't help but exclaim: "Can there still be such a thing now?" Which predecessor in the literary world can affect the future of a newcomer because of his likes and dislikes? It's not just a moral issue, it's just a beggar! Rogue Bungalow! ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

"Lao Xiao, what are you talking about?"

Editor Lao Li seems to vaguely understand the true purpose of Xiao Hongda's trip...
