"Editor-in-chief Qian, editor-in-chief Qian!"

"Out of stock again? Let them wait, the printing house is working overtime! ”

"No, Editor-in-Chief Qian. "Caged Bird" has won an award! ”

"Which award, which one do we send to the newspaper?"

I heard the editor howling outside, and no one came in.

Editor-in-chief Qian was a little helpless.

How normal it is for this "Caged Bird" to win awards, just by virtue of the current sales of "Caged Bird", Even if you don't have word of mouth, you can also win the award.

What's more, the reader feedback is so good.

And now there are no big awards at home and abroad, I guess it's a small award.

But despite thinking so, Editor-in-Chief Qian still got up and walked out of the office,

And then I watched several editors gather around the same computer, as if looking at an email.

All of them were flushed with red faces, a little excited, and some vulgar words came out of their mouths,

"! Awesome! ”

Looking at this scene, the mentality of the editor-in-chief of Qian changed a little,

What prestigious award has this won?

Editor-in-Chief Qian couldn't help but look forward to it and walked over,

"What's the situation? Which award did you win? An email from the jury? ”

Editor-in-Chief Qian asked one after another.

"It's not...... But it's pretty much the same, it's a notice from the Ministry of Culture. ”

"The Ministry of Culture?"

The man who howled just now explained to the editor-in-chief Qian,

Editor-in-Chief Qian mentions it again, what is the cultural department, that is the top boss of their publishing industry,

The related awards don't seem to be too stretched.

"Which award did you win?"

"Outstanding feature-length sci-fi work of the year."

"Well, which award?"

"There is no award that is one of the outstanding feature-length science fiction works of the year recognized by the cultural department."

Editor-in-Chief Qian was a little silent, his mind was spinning, and he couldn't figure out whether this was an average or a particularly good award.

"It's a recent event held by the cultural department to select some excellent works, not limited to science fiction, but also other types of works."

"After the outstanding works are selected, the cultural department will help promote these works as a list of recommended works."

Hearing this editor's explanation, Editor-in-Chief Qian's eyes lit up.

Let's not talk about whether there are works in the promotion of the cultural department, but even if it is symbolic, it has a strong effect, at least it is an official recognition.

And the editor's words haven't stopped,

Then he said excitedly,

"The email said that they would use "Caged Bird" as a recommended book for young people to read, and promote it together with other books."

"And! Just now we found the top hot search on the social platform 'Cultural Department Annual Excellent Works Recommendation', how can this be pinned to the top for many days! ”

Speaking of which, the editor was even more excited.

Editor-in-Chief Qian was also excited when he heard this,

What does this mean, it means that this time the cultural department really has to make a big effort to publicize it.

That's a huge amount of traffic and new readers!

Imply! The newly reprinted 100,000 copies of "Caged Bird" may be selling out again.

Editor-in-Chief Qian...... Shall we consider printing more books? ”

The editor proposed, and the editor next to him also looked at Editor-in-Chief Qian,

Editor-in-Chief Qian was a little moved.

He already felt that his publishing house was going to have a super bestseller, maybe it could meet the bestseller standard when the publishing industry was still hot in those years - selling millions a year?

Of course, even if it is reprinted, the printing house has to be busy.

The printing house that had the cooperation was almost three shifts.

……

"Hey......"

Ji Zhuo shook off the gel pen he was holding,

After three books that needed to be signed, the pen finally ran out of ink.

Put this empty gel pen in front of him, Ji Zhuo looked at it very seriously,

If you become a famous writer in history in the future,

Can this gel pen that I use to sign my name be auctioned?

Ji Zhuo thought about it and felt that it was unreliable, after all, what others auctioned was fountain pens, and his gel pen was somewhat meaningless.

And then throw it in the trash,

Turning his head again, he looked at the pile of unfinished autographs that were still piled up next to him,

"Hey......"

Sighed again.

Let's buy another pen first.

"Ding-dong."

Ji Zhuo hasn't touched his phone yet,

The phone rang first,

Gu Yan picked up his phone and looked at it, and found that in addition to a penguin message, there was also an email.

The content of the email is,

"Dear Mr. 'Yuchengqi': ...... We would like to inform you that your work "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" has been selected as one of this year's outstanding feature-length fairy tales......"

The payment is the Ministry of Culture.

Scam information?

Or is it a small award that I haven't heard of?

And then there's the penguin message,

It was sent by the editor-in-chief of Huating Publishing House.

"Editor-in-Chief Qian: Mr. Bugong, congratulations on winning the award from the Cultural Department.

Big Coincidence: You know that too?

Qian Editor-in-Chief: ???

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Mr. Bugong, your "Caged Bird" has won the award, and the publisher has also received the information.

Daqiao: Oh, that's another one.

Qian Editor-in-Chief: ......

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Mr. Bugong is amazing. ”

always felt that Ji Zhuo was showing off, but it was not easy to debunk, so Editor-in-Chief Qian said politely.

But at this end, Ji Zhuo was a little bored, looked at the pile of books piled up next to him, and asked the editor-in-chief again.

"Daqiao doesn't work: Editor-in-chief Qian, what type do you think is better for me to write next?

Qian Editor-in-Chief: ......

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Naturally, it depends on what you want to write about Mr. Gong. Mr. Bugong, you don't have a better grasp of the market than me, and I am also an editor-in-chief, so I am afraid that it is difficult to answer questions in terms of creation.

Editor-in-Chief Qian: If I had a strong grasp of the market, I wouldn't have had a dismal performance of the publishing house before you published the book. ”

Editor-in-Chief Qian's words also make some sense,

Ji Zhuo looked a little silent.

"Editor-in-Chief Qian: But I think, Mr. Bugong, your ability, except for some overly outrageous themes, should be able to control everything else."

"Daqiao: What do you think is a theme that is too outrageous?

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Sports, romance? I can't say the specifics.

Big coincidence: ......"

It's okay to write about sports, but it's a bit outrageous to write about romance.

Ji Zhuo, a single dog, writes about romance.

"Daqiao does not work: Editor-in-chief Qian, what kind of works do you think should not be sold, or not swooped."

Editor-in-Chief Qian looked at this news and felt a little inexplicable, suspecting that Ji Zhuo was joking,

Just a joke back.

"Editor-in-Chief Qian: Religious works are either not sold or blocked."

"Big Coincidence: ......"

It's a bit outrageous,

If you want to say something wrong, he seems to have a point,

The best-selling book in the world is the religious scriptures.

But Ji Zhuo went to write, to write a 'classic story' of the Flying Pasta God Cult?

But Ji Zhuo's mind turned,

I have an idea in my head,

He can't write about this outrageous type of work,

Or write myths,

Classical mythology?

I also heard that there are some famous classical mythological works in modern times,

Some of them have been handed down from ancient times......

Well, it doesn't seem to be without ...... There is the Cthulhu Mythos abroad, which he also wrote.

No, isn't that science fiction.

Well......

With some thoughts, Ji Zhuo replied with a message from the editor-in-chief of Qian,

That's the end of the chat.

"Big coincidence: I think about it.

Qian Editor-in-Chief: ......

Editor-in-Chief Qian: Mr. Bugong, I'm kidding.

I know, I'm kidding.

Qian Editor-in-Chief: ......"

Editor-in-chief Qian seems to have resonated with the pen and ink of the past at this moment,

I feel a little tired chatting with this author.

But fortunately, this author should not be so outrageous.

But what will he write in his new book? Or sci-fi?

Will it be released again Huating Publishing House?

Hey, that guy must still be watching from the side.
