encountered rejection, to be honest, it did make Wang Defu, who was a fan of confidence, a little difficult to accept.

And what he didn't expect was that the other party actually caught the kitsch H part he wrote in order to please readers, which caused him to be very unhappy at the same time, but helpless.

This incident made Wang Defu introspect himself, and he will definitely never use this way to go off the rails in the future, he will take the literary road in a dignified manner.

Wang Defu took the manuscript he had worked hard to without saying a word, even though he was very embarrassed and unhappy in his heart, he was still calm on the surface, and said: "Since your newspaper does not accept my manuscript, then I will find another place." ”

"Not anymore." A smile of victory appeared on Zhou Qiyun's face, didn't he really see the goodness of this work? It was nothing more than his own interests, and he didn't want to have authors under his command who were not under his control.

Zhou Qiyun couldn't help but say: "There is little chance of finding another place, and no regular newspaper or magazine will accept vulgar and obscene works." ”

Wang Mo'er only felt distressed when she saw that her young master had suffered such a setback, but she didn't know how to comfort him, and she became less firm in her heart about whether the young master could make money by writing.

In fact, Wang Moer and Wang Defu have been together for so long, and they gradually don't want to go home, because she feels that she is really at ease with Wang Defu, and she can feel that the other party really has a kind of idea that everyone is equal in her bones, and she really doesn't regard herself as a superior person.

Such heartfelt respect is something that Wang Mo'er couldn't feel in the previous big family, even if she is favored by the Wu family again, she is just a maid.

Obviously, Wang Moer has been imperceptibly influenced by Wang Defu's personal style, and is gradually transforming from a woman full of feudal ideas to a more open-minded woman in the new era.

Zhou Qiyun's last words did not affect Wang Defu, but this time the setback of being rejected did make Wang Defu gain a lot, he thought that in this era, wanton "driving" would not encounter river crab beasts, but what he never expected was that what he thought was the selling point of the article turned out to be a drag.

I have to say that this is a very ironic thing, but how many of the top world classics will have kitsch H content in them?

It is said that there was "The Golden Plum Bottle" first, and then "The Dream of Red Mansions" was born, but when the two books are put together, it will always be "The Dream of Red Mansions" that is more stylish, and there are more scholars who study "Red Studies" than "Golden Studies", "Dream of Red Mansions" made Cao Xueqin famous in history, and who is the author of "Golden Plum Bottle", Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, is still a mystery.

Wang Defu walked out of the editorial office, and his mentality has been adjusted in a very short period of time, and he actually has a greater harvest than being rejected.

However, before he had gone far, Du Shuhuan, who came out with him, called out to him, he politely introduced himself and handed out a business card.

Wang Defu was puzzled: "Editor Du, who are you?" ”

Du Shuhuan is actually quite interested in Wang Defu's work, he really wants to see the next plot development, he said: "I don't know where you will put this work? ”

"There is no good choice for the time being, maybe I will revise it after I go back." Wang Defu responded.

"In this way, I will recommend to you a magazine specializing in literary works, called "Red Rose", this magazine has just been established not long ago, and the sales volume is only five or six thousand, but the founder of the magazine is very ambitious, and the goal is to be on par with "Violet". Du Shuhuan said.

"Violet" is a fairly famous literary book of this era, and it is a must-follow magazine for almost all literary girls, with sales of nearly five million!

It even has an English version, English name: Violet, exported overseas, it is the first square magazine in the Chinese Sun Never Sets Empire, the cover inscription is the famous Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang, the founder is Zhou Shoujuan, and it is distributed by Dadong Bookstore on Sima Road, Magic City.

Its cover pursues fashion, the layout pays attention to beauty, and the text is inserted with pattern paintings and ladies paintings. The main columns include Novel Notes, Novels, Women and Decoration, Friends of the Detective, Speaking of Lin Zhenwen, Xiaotiandi, etc.

Many talented female writers of this era were proud to publish articles in Violet.

Du Shuhuan felt that "Ms. Yiren" was afraid that she also longed for "Violet", but the work of "Ms. Yiren" wanted to be published in the famous magazine "Violet" in the magic capital, which was obviously not so realistic, so he recommended "Red Rose", which had just started.

The founder of "Red Rose" is a friend of his, a young woman in literature and art, who is twenty-five years old, and has not yet gotten married, but has come out to run a magazine, which makes Du Shuhuan quite admired, and he feels that he is helping her by recommending this work to her, and of course helping "Ms. Yiren".

Wang Defu heard that the sales of the magazine "Red Rose" were only five or six thousand, in this era when the literacy rate is not bad, it is really a little pitiful, after all, many people in this era, in their spare time, can only buy newspapers and magazines for recreation, so some best-selling magazines, their sales are very terrifying!

The five million sales of "Violet" are far from reaching the level of top magazine sales.

Of course, Wang Defu was not very satisfied with the sales of "Red Rose", but he thought about it, he wrote this "Love and Sex" just to make a quick buck, as long as the other party gave him the manuscript fee, then why should he care where it was published?

So Wang Defu also threw off the face of the literati and asked directly: "How much can "Red Rose" cost? ”

Du Shuhuan thought to himself that his friend must not be bad for money, so he said confidently: "The manuscript fee starts at 1 silver dollar per thousand words, if this article is quite popular, the price will definitely be raised at that time." ”

Wang Defu knows that in Suzhou, the price of 1 silver dollar per thousand words is already very good for new writers, but in fact, only new writers in the magic capital can get this price.

So he happily agreed, which made Du Shuhuan very happy, and immediately asked Wang Defu if he could give him the manuscript, and he wanted to go back to read the masterpiece before going to Ling Jingsu, the editor-in-chief of "Red Rose", in person.

Wang Defu was a little hesitant and didn't see the manuscript fee, how could he hand over the work with peace of mind? He is short of money now.

At this time, Wang Mo'er, who had been silent, finally spoke and said what Wang Defu was embarrassed to say.

Du Shuhuan is indeed refreshing enough, after knowing that this manuscript has about 20,000 words, he directly took out 20 silver dollars, paid the manuscript fee first, and then took the manuscript back beautifully, he is not bad for this 20 silver dollars, just like the rich second generation of later generations don't care about 2,000 yuan at all, what he cares about is spiritual enjoyment.

When he got home, almost as soon as he had dinner, he couldn't wait to start reading "Love and Sex".
