Chapter 11: Fiery (I)

"Editor-in-Chief Xia, do you really want to recommend the 'Editor-in-Chief' to that newcomer 'Shuren'?" In Xia Qing's office, Xiao Xiao asked a little unwillingly, when the editor-in-chief signed the contract with Yin Chang just now, he didn't express his position on the spot, which made Yin Chang a little unhappy, how do you know that now it is still spent in another family, and the Yin Wen family must not be angry?

"yes"

Xia Qing stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at a tall back hidden in the crowd below, she answered without looking back, paused, and said:

"Don't ask why, just instinct! Okay, now that the final draft is complete, I don't need to teach you the rest of the work! ”

Three days later, on Saturday, the new edition of the martial arts journal "Wu Xia" edited by the editorial department of the "Hero Cup" was officially launched, and it was sold in major bookstores and newsstands.

After 9 a.m., Dai Fan, a high school student, walked out of his home and went to a nearby newsstand with one purpose in mind, to buy books.

He likes to read all kinds of books since he was a child, especially martial arts novels, so every Saturday, he will buy a copy of "Wu Xia", this habit has lasted for three years, but because of the "Hero Cup", "Wu Xia" announced that it would be closed for a month and would be reorganized, and today is the day when the new version of "Wu Xia" is on sale, thinking of this, Dai Fan's pace has accelerated a few points.

Soon walked to the newsstand, the boss had already been very familiar with him, and without waiting to speak, he first took out a beautifully packaged "Wuxia" periodical, which was colorful and very good-looking.

"Uncle Wang, you have a heart"

Dai Fan smiled and thanked him, took the journal and took a look, the cover was a martial arts character and a few lines of large characters, each line is the title of each book, which is the power of the work recommended by the editor.

"It's thicker, but I don't know what the quality is"

Dai Fan muttered this, and then saw the new work of the local martial arts master Swordsman, his eyes lit up, and he tore open the package, and then talked about it for a sneak peek.

This fascination was striking, and it wasn't until the boss pushed him that he woke up, asked for a few magazines, and then hurried home.

As soon as he got home, he went directly into the room, finished reading the "Sword of Providence" of the swordsman in one go, and said very unsatisfactorily: "The beginning is exquisite, the writing is old and spicy, and the skill of the swordsman has reached another level, and it did not disappoint!" ”

Then, Dai Fan flipped back to the table of contents, only to find a strange thing, there was a work that was actually ranked in front of "Sword of Providence", and it was stamped with a small seal of "Recommended by the Editor-in-Chief" at the back.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

Dai Fan looked at the author, tree man? I've never heard of it! Surely he is a newcomer, and he can write better than a swordsman? He was skeptical, but he saw the third work "Wushuang Villa", which was the work of a martial arts scholar Lian Zhi who rose last year, and Dai Fan was a little impressed, so he planned to watch this work first.

Soon, tens of thousands of words were read again, but Dai Fan didn't feel much, firstly, he didn't like Gurung-style works very much, and secondly, he felt that the author's popularity was much worse.

There are seven martial arts works in the future, and sure enough, Dai Fan chose "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to start watching.

Then, he sank.

The magnificent layout, exquisite language, and twists and turns of the plot brought all his thoughts into it at once, he turned the pages one by one, and when he turned to the back, his reaction was the same as Lao He: "Damn! It's disconnected here! ”

Dai Fan only felt a breath in his heart, this feeling was very weird, after reading "Sword of Heaven's Will", he felt that it was very well written, but after reading "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he couldn't say the exact feeling, because throughout the whole story, the character jumped in his heart, as if it had really happened.

It feels like a cat scratching now.

"This is definitely written by an uncle in his forties! Could it be another pen name of Master Liang Yusheng?! According to his own reading experience, Dai Fan suddenly popped up with this idea, but he quickly rejected it, because the overall style of this work is definitely not Master Liang's style.

Then, Dai Fan looked at the other works in the future, although there were also highlights, but the pearl and jade were in front, and there was no much taste.

When he returned to school at the beginning of the school year, Dai Fan couldn't wait to find a few book friends and asked directly: "Hey, have you read the latest "My Heroes", which work do you like the most?" ”

"Of course, I don't miss a single issue! The swordsman must be the first! ”

"Yes, but I think it's better when I watch that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!"

"Me too, me too!"

"By the way, who is this 'tree man'?"

"I don't know, I checked it in the celebrity system, and I didn't find this person, maybe I haven't applied for entry yet."

"It doesn't matter who he is, as long as it's well written, it's a pity, "Wuxia" is a weekly magazine, and it will take a long time!"

"What, the editor-in-chief recommended it to that newcomer?!"

From the comfort of his home, Yin Chang yelled at the phone.

At that end, Xiao Xiao's face was a little ugly, and he replied: "That's the case, Yin Wenjia, this recommendation is completely decided by our editor-in-chief, and I can't persuade it!" But don't worry, you don't know your fame yet, there are too many people who surpass that newcomer, and when the book is released, they will definitely regret it! ”

"Hmph, your editorial office has disappointed me so much!"

Yin Chang snorted coldly and hung up the phone directly, his face was gloomy, and he said secretly, it was just that Lao Tzu's limelight was robbed by Gurung, but I definitely can't allow anyone to step on me again! Bear with me a little longer, if there is an accident, no wonder I made a move!

On the fifth floor of the Tomorrow Building, the editorial office of "My Heroes".

"Editor-in-Chief Xia, all 50,000 copies will be sold out in two days, should we print more?" Lao He asked.

"Of course, I was conservative before, "Wu Xia" has been published for many years, and the readership audience will not be only like this, taking advantage of this wind, I will print another 150,000, and at the same time radiate the surrounding provinces and cities, and report 300,000 to the outside world! By the way, what are the readers' reviews? Xia Qing sat upright, with a shrewd face.

The wrinkles in the corners of Lao He's eyes smiled, and he replied: "Our vision is really right, we have received more than 100 letters, most of which are about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!" By the way, should we build momentum now? ”

"Don't worry, it's only the first issue, first hang the reader's appetite to form a word-of-mouth, and the publicity effect will be greater later, and, is the next issue of the manuscript sent?"

"Collect some, you should be able to collect it all tonight"

"That's good, urge them, don't delay!"

"Don't worry, I know how to do it!"

"Also, online voting must be optimistic, if there is any vote-swiping behavior, it must be cracked down on immediately, and the reputation must not be damaged!" Xia Qing explained in detail.

Lao He nodded in agreement, retreated, returned to his desk, and happened to receive a manuscript from Su Mo, with more than 90,000 words in three times.

Lao He immediately rubbed his hands and had a sneak peek.
