Chapter 7 The Long Road to Submission

Generally speaking, when soliciting papers, the publisher will mark a statement that refuses to submit more than one manuscript, but few people will care, and honestly submitting one by one will only fall into a long wait.

In these years, the emphasis is on casting a wide net to catch more fish, but Zhang Qiuxi can't do this if she wants to, because she only has one manuscript, and she will definitely not be willing to do this stupid method of copying a few more times, and it is obviously not feasible to take a few copies.

If it's an electronic document, you can make a few more copies, but it's a pity that she wrote it in class, and the teacher has found it a few times during the period, and if you still use the computer, the teacher is probably going crazy, which is too arrogant.

It doesn't seem necessary to re-enter it, first, she has confidence in this novel, and second, the publishing house is also not popular with email submission, and she only found the address of the publishing house after flipping through the official website for a long time.

Qingxi is the provincial capital, and the publishing houses of Caiyun Province are concentrated here, so you don't have to spend money to mail it, you can just go to the door, Zhang Qiuxi took a small bag, took the manuscript and went out.

First of all, of course, I want to find the biggest, take the subway directly to Caiyun People's Publishing House, look at the towering building and sigh a few times, the publishing industry is really profitable and then step in.

LONG BEFORE THE CROSSING, ZHANG QIUXI WAS A WRITER, AND EVEN LEARNED TO WRITE NOVELS, BUT HIS LEVEL WAS NATURALLY MISERABLE, AND IN THE END HE DIDN'T MUSTER UP THE COURAGE TO CONTRIBUTE, AND NOW HE CAN MAKE HIS DREAM COME TRUE, AND HE IS REALLY NERVOUS WHEN HE COMES TO THE DOOR.

Entering the office building, she was still looking around, and the receptionist at the front desk had already shouted: "Little girl, what's the matter with you?" ”

As a front desk, don't say stand up at this time, at least use a "excuse me", right?

After a slander, Zhang Qiuxi walked over and said with a smile: "Hello, I want to contribute to your society." ”

"Oh, then you put the manuscript down, and I'll pass it on to the editor."

Didn't you say that you didn't stretch out your hand and hit the smiling person, you were smiling like a flower, why was this tone so cold?

"Sorry for the trouble, thank you." Now it's me asking for others, no matter what Zhang Qiuxi says, I've been in the society for a few years, it's not that I don't understand anything, and I get angry at every turn, and after putting down the manuscript, I turned around and left when I got to Xie.

As soon as she took two steps, there was a "bang" sound behind her, and when she subconsciously looked back, her manuscript had been thrown into the trash, and she even heard a voice: "Today's young people want to be famous and want to go crazy." ”

Fortunately, Nima didn't go far, Zhang Qiuxi's first reaction when she saw this situation was to be glad, if the manuscript was thrown away after she left, then she shouldn't use any expression to express her feelings.

Walked back and picked up the manuscript, fortunately there were only some scraps of paper in the trash can, it was clean, the manuscript was not stained, the front desk looked at her newspaper and ignored her, she patted the manuscript and said: "The name of my book is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and it is a science fiction novel." ”

"Huh?" The front desk put down the newspaper and raised his head, Zhang Qiuxi calmly put the manuscript back in his bag, and continued: "I don't want to sell myself by saying this, I just want you to pay attention, so as not to know that you are blind in the future." ”

Putting down this sentence, Zhang Qiuxi flicked his long hair and walked out, Qingxi is more than this publishing house, so he has to beg them.

"Hmph, another self-righteous person who doesn't know the height of the sky." When the front desk said this, Zhang Qiuxi had already walked away and didn't hear it.

——————

"Hello, I would like to contribute to your society."

This time it was Caiyun Education Publishing House, which repeated the previous conversation, and the other party's response was still to ask her to put down the manuscript, and she would forward it to the relevant departments.

This time, Zhang Qiuxi paid attention and did not leave immediately, but said: "Auntie, if there is no manuscript, I hope you will return the manuscript to me, don't bother you to mail it, I will leave you a phone number, and when the time comes, please call me to inform me, and I will pick it up myself." ”

The aunt at the front desk looked at her, grabbed the manuscript and handed it back to her, Zhang Qiuxi was stunned for a moment and understood, which means that there is no need to waste time, just take it back......

"Little girl, I think you're as old as my daughter, and you're only a high school student now, right? If you like to write, you can go to the New Concept Essay Competition, now it's like publishing a book and being a writer is too unrealistic......"

"Auntie, you should keep these words to educate your daughter." Zhang Qiuxi didn't wait for her to finish speaking, took back the manuscript, turned around and left.

Hit the wall twice, she was not in a good mood when she was full of confidence, if it was not up to the publication standard after the editor's review, it would be okay, after all, she also understood the truth of the south orange and the north orange, but what happened if she didn't look at it?

"Sooner or later, you'll regret it." muttered depressedly, bought a stalk of chilled juice on the side of the road and took a sip, and even made a phone call to complain to Li Yue, and after resting for a while, he continued to the next one, this time choosing a private company, called Huaguang Publishing House.

According to the introduction on the Internet, although the name of this Huaguang Publishing House is not so good, it is the most active publisher in Caiyun Province, and it has been ranked first in terms of publication volume in recent years, and it is also very influential.

stepped into the office building again to explain the intention, and the front desk immediately called to report: "Editor Yang, there is a girl to contribute." ”

There is a play, and the attitude is much better in comparison, Zhang Qiuxi was happy in his heart, and at the same time sighed, he knew what Tu Na was doing, so it was okay to come to this publishing house directly.

"Please follow me." After hanging up the phone, the front desk took Zhang Qiuxi to the reception room, then poured her a glass of water, and then said: "You wait a minute, the editor of our publishing house will come over soon." ”

"Thank you." Zhang Qiuxi took the water and said thank you, the Yang Bian in her mouth had already come, about thirty years old, her beard was very clean, and the other party seemed to be a little surprised when she saw her, and there was still some ...... in her eyes Amazing.

After the front desk said hello and left, this Yang Bian said: "Please take a seat, introduce yourself first, my name is Yang Cheng." ”

"Yang is compiled, my name is Zhang Qiuxi, this is a novel I wrote, please take a look." Zhang Qiuxi handed over the manuscript across the coffee table, but Yang Cheng was aiming at her neckline when she bowed down, although her movements were not big, and the collar was not so open, so she couldn't see anything at all, but Yang Cheng's expression at this moment was still squinting.

Nima is really virtuous, Zhang Qiuxi has not been like this before, but now that it is his turn, he still can't help but feel a chill again, and he is a little disgusted.
