Chapter 357: Bus
One of the most important work skills of an editor is to urge the manuscript, which is not done well, and she is ready to be criticized.
Who knew that as soon as her name was called, Susan received the news.
The editor rejoiced.
"Nine times out of ten, it's Jiang Yang."
Stony Brook's editorial teachers are sure. Susan is not responsible for many authors, most of them are old authors, the time schedule is very stable, and it can be so sudden, only the one who is in the limelight.
"Tsk."
The editor who was about to be sprayed was a little envious, "Boss, this is really holding a fragrant bait." ”
Jiang Yang's books are best-selling and have brought great economic benefits to the publishing house.
In addition, the work of copyright editors in their publishing houses has become much easier, and the important work of copyright editors is to establish and maintain good cooperative relations with foreign publishing houses, book companies, authors, and copyright agencies.
Now their publishing house is also one of those companies that are maintained.
When the publishing editor used to contact him, he would answer the phone on the other side, and after reporting his identity, he would come to a "Yikeke oil rice" and ask what publishing house again. Now when I call over, it's all "Ah, The Little Prince Press" on the other side.
This is called status.
Stony Brook's editing teacher told the editor not to be envious, "Go and urge the manuscript, otherwise you won't be able to escape today, and you won't be able to escape tomorrow." ”
The editor was helpless, she stood up: "I'm going to block his door." ”
The editor returned to work with Stony Brook.
Stony Brook is still a trainee editor, mainly learning some basic things from his teachers. Just when she was busy with the work at hand and didn't know how long time had passed, Stony Brook saw the boss come back. The boss looked around in the editorial room and beckoned to Shi Xi's editing teacher, who came back after a while and gave Shi Xi a job: proofreading Jiang Yang's new book.
"Ahh
Stony Brook was surprised.
Can she, an intern editor, still receive such an important job?
Of course, Shi Xi knows Jiang Yang, one of the most popular authors, and an author who has been popular in their publishing house recently.
As an editor who is about to enter the industry, whether he likes it or not, Stony Brook has read all of Jiang Yang's works.
She likes Jiang Yang's "The Little Prince" the most.
From a professional point of view, this book has the potential to become a regular seller. A regular book is not a bestseller, a regular book is ten years later, twenty years later, thirty years later, and the book is still selling well. Now, though, it seems that the book has the potential to be a bestseller and a regular seller. It can be seen that the editor said that it was not a joke that Boss Su excavated a fragrant dumpling.
From the perspective of the people, in addition to "The Little Prince", Stony Brook likes his "Anxiety Relief Grocery Store" the most, which is quite healing to read, and then there is the setting of the mailbox through time and space, which is quite amazing.
As for the rest of the books, she also thinks they are good.
It may not affect her to a great extent, but she will always feel something after reading it.
In order to enter the publishing house for an internship, she was born in a small county town and also specialized in studying Jiangyang, so much so that during the interview, she took Jiang as an example many times, and Jiang Yang, the author, is indeed an author who challenges editors.
Because his books are sometimes in the sky, sometimes underground, yesterday was a fairy tale, today he reasoned, and tomorrow he ran love) One day he writes horror novels, and another day he writes science fiction to the sky, and it is not surprising that Stony Brook is not surprised.
As a result, editors have to dabble in these types of novels as well. Otherwise, another day, Jiang Yang's god will be the whole sci-fi, and a lot of very hardcore words will pop up, and the editor will be confused and don't understand anything. What can I do?
Shi Xi guessed that their publishing house would not be able to cope with Jiang Yang, otherwise why wouldn't the mystery novels be in the bag.
Right now.
With such a cowhide and challenging author, why did she let her do the proofreading?
The teacher thought that Shi Xi felt that the task was arduous, and patted her on the shoulder, "Everyone has work at hand, you just need to do some basic proofreading." This is a good thing, you are the first batch of people to see Mr. Jiang Yang's novel outside of the Great Demon King. ”
"Okay, okay."
Stony Brook nodded and agreed, and even felt that it was quite an honor to have a connection with the idol.
But compared to the honor, to be honest, she was a little nervous.
This is the same as taking on such a big project just as an intern, and she is quite stressed.
She took the manuscript, sat down at her workstation, and took a deep breath.
She said in the interview that to be the editor of Mr. Jiang Yang, you must be prepared to open the blind box.
She adjusted her state and opened the manuscript.
And then.
Stony Creek knows why he let himself proofread, this punctuation, this "land" is not distinguished, and there are unexpected typos, this is really a basic proofreading work that can't be used anymore. No, this draft is too urgent, why does it look like a draft?
Shi Xi wants to cry, Mr. Jiang Yang, the filter is broken.
She used to think that the boss was very lucky to dig out such a high-quality and best-selling author as Jiang Yang. She is now apologizing for her previous thoughts, and the boss can dig out such an author, who is really cowhide, and makes people admire.
Because of such a draft, some editors are likely to be killed at the beginning.
And also.
Stony Brook finally knew why he stood out from a group of excellent interns and was taken under the boss's command. Because what she said during the interview was really right, Jiang Yang's book is to open a blind box, and now she has opened a novel with a realistic theme.
A teacher was about to die, he looked out the window and recalled, describing the poverty of this village, the palm-sized fields, the oil money for agricultural machinery could not be earned, and the student's gambling father almost killed his son; The schoolgirl's mother was a madman who slashed people with kitchen knives and set fire to houses; The village built a temple and demolished the school building, broke the teacher's ribs, and then the teacher found out that esophageal cancer could have been cured in the early stage, but he had no money.
Repression! Heaviness!
Although the writing is not as painful as that of Ling Chi, who is a student from the countryside, it is easy for Shi Xi to empathize with these heaviness. As far as she is a classmate, her mother also has mental problems. She forgot why, and once went to her classmates to look for her, and then in a low, dark room, she saw her mother on the bed.
She will never forget the weird smile on her classmate's mother's face in a poorly lit room.
This female classmate also got married early.
She didn't do well in school.
In many stories, children from poor families tend to study hard and do well in their studies. There is, but there has to be a couple, at least one parent who knows the importance of knowledge, otherwise the child needs great wisdom to get out of it. Because of the subtle environment, people can easily become numb and habitual, and learning slowly is not planned at all.
Everything changes under a blunt knife.
Stony Brook was able to get out of the village because she had parents who knew that they could study well and earn money.
Of course, teachers are also important.
She really started to study well in the sixth grade, when the village school changed a husband and wife teacher to teach the sixth grade main subject, men taught Chinese, women taught mathematics, and the husband and wife showed them TV and talked about ideals after studying, not that there were empty ideals such as scientists 9, nor did they buy two bowls of soy milk after earning money, and drink a bowl of poured a bowl of money, but to tell them the colors of the outside world.
For example, waiting for a bus at a bus stop, going where you want to go after buying a ticket, buying a book, going to a movie, going to the park.
Stony Brook thought it was so convenient.
