Chapter IX Outcome of the Conference
At the meeting, the editors stopped and began to pick up the second novel and read it, never wasting time.
It takes a few minutes for a novel to be discussed, and dozens of novels are all reviewed, and it takes two or three hours for the meeting to be completed.
As for the pending meaning, the plot of the first chapter of this novel has been recognized by the editor-in-chief Han Yun, and the quality is enough to be serialized on "Red Maple", but if it is not the best submitted novel at this serialization conference, then it will be no fun, after all... Only one serial slot has been vacated in this journal.
......
On the other side .... Nancheng No. 3 Middle School, the opening ceremony of the second semester of the second semester of high school is being held.
In the queue of the second and third classes of high school.
Xia Yan had dark circles under his eyes.....
He has been working overtime these days to adapt the animated content of the youth journey he watched before into a novel text with a total of seven chapters.
And then in the past two days, the memory of the girl chasing other dramas has reappeared.,Love works such as cool breeze.,Otherworldly animation.,For example, from today onwards, be a demon king.,Heal the brave or something....
The cool breeze is okay, Xia Yan is still fascinated by chasing through soul memory, but from today on, he will be a demon king, although he has only watched a few episodes in his soul memory, if he is not mistaken.... It should be a Tanmei genre-themed animation, which really made Xia Yan feel uncomfortable after watching it.
Xia Yan was stunned for a moment when he saw these dramas, and he could only admire the animation creators of the parallel world, the themes were really changeable, the tastes were so heavy, and the most important thing was that Yuan Qing, a cute girl, also did not refuse, and these can be watched with relish.
Sure enough, not everything in the works of another world is suitable for adaptation in the Dragon Kingdom, and none of the works that Xia Yan dreamed of in the past two days are suitable for publication in the Dragon Kingdom.
But that doesn't work.......
Yuan Qing, you give me a little strength, when the soul memory is played, hurry up and fast forward to the plot related to the youth journey!
If today's serialization meeting passes the serialization of the youth journey, I don't want Tang Yin to raise a knife and urge the manuscript at my house a few weeks later!
Xia Yan thought in his heart, at this moment, the dark circles in his eyes were more obvious.
The opening ceremony ended quickly, and it was basically a process, starting tomorrow, the second semester of the second semester of the students' high school careers officially began.
The head teacher, Lao Huang, then said impassionedly in the class that there are only 400 days before the college entrance examination, so that everyone can work hard, struggle, give up novels, animation, games and other entertainment products, and concentrate on learning is the right way....
Well, but few people pay attention to him.
However, what made Xia Yan a little concerned was that his girlfriend ...... Oh, no, it's his ex-girlfriend, Su Ling, the study committee member in the class, and the seat is in a row next to him, only about a meter away.
Dressed in a white school uniform, she is young and beautiful, attracting the attention of many boys in the class.
During the winter vacation, because of the changes in Xia Yan's family, Su Ling immediately proposed to break up after learning about it, but after all, he was in the same class, so he had no way to avoid it, so he could only deliberately ignore it so as not to cause embarrassment.
Xia Yan saw the other party's attitude, and the last trace of nostalgia for her in her heart was completely let go.
"By the way, Su Ling, didn't you have a good relationship with Xia Yan before? How can I not say a word to him today. ”
"What's the matter? He and I are just ordinary classmates, don't think about it. Su Ling glanced at Xia Yan.
Her mother died early, her father committed suicide during the winter vacation, the family went bankrupt, and Xia Yan didn't drop out of school, which made her feel very surprised.
Probably some relatives supported him in his studies....
Forget it, no matter what, he is probably one of the worst in the school now, and if you continue to associate with him, you will inevitably be ridiculed by your friends for your poor vision, and there is no benefit, and if you don't do it, you will come to ask me to borrow money....
All kinds of plots came to Su Ling's mind, and it was actually a pity that she didn't go to be a novelist.
The relationship between the two was confirmed at the end of last semester, and the relationship lasted less than a month, and it broke down during the winter vacation, which was too short, so no one in the class knew about the relationship between the two.
The breeze blew into the class, and the hair of the students in the class fluttered slightly.....
Xia Yan thought about the serialization of his novel, and gradually fell into a trance....
Su Ling frowned, the more she wanted to ignore Xia Yan, the more difficult it was to ignore it, and the other party's indifferent attitude towards her, the school, and everything made her a little awkward..... always feels as if the other party, the person who was dumped by her, can see more than her.
Tomorrow, school will start.
....
"Next, the twenty-second novel of this conference, the journey of youth, the target serial periodicals "Instant Fanghua", "Xunyin" ....."
Tang Yin got up and introduced the relevant information of the youth journey to the editors present.
The other editors were flipping through the manuscript of the novel.
In this meeting, a total of five novels competed for the two serialization opportunities vacated by "Instant Fanghua".
The competition is actually fierce.
Half a minute later....
The expressions of the editors present changed slightly.....
Everyone is a human being, and the vision is there, and most of the novels are actually the plot of the first chapter because of the length of the article, and in fact, the viewing experience will not be so different.
But the plot of the first chapter of the journey of youth is actually quite interesting.
First of all, the beginning establishes the relationship between the male protagonist and the female protagonist who once had a crush on each other.
In the middle plot, the two will meet again after three years, just when everyone thought it was the revival of the former feelings, the male protagonist said "I can't go back to the past!" "Directly set the tone of the relationship between the two.
As for the final ending, the heroine's inner monologue that is unwilling to end the relationship with Huan makes everyone have a strong sense of expectation for the development of the plot in the second chapter.
And the description of the interpersonal relationship, emotion, and mood of the heroine Futaba..... After reading the first chapter, everyone had a faint feeling of sadness and abuse in their hearts.....
They have read so many novels that average-quality novels can't stir the emotions of these editors at all.
"Well, pretty good...."
"The quality is really okay."
"I don't think it's good, the first chapter makes the interpersonal relationship so straightforward, and the male protagonist says to the female protagonist so indifferently, our past, has ended this kind of words, so how will the plot unfold later? The female protagonist chases the male protagonist backwards? This kind of plot is very annoying to many female readers, and everyone doesn't like to read female licking dog articles. ”
"That's true...."
"Wait a minute, this author is new? And I read the author information right.... Male? Or a student? ”
"Really?"
"Male high school students write love essays for girls?"
"That article is something that a boy can write? Really? Now high school students understand girls' hearts so well? ”
"To be honest, a boy wants to serialize a girl's love novel, it's a little wrong, even if the first chapter is well written, there is a high probability that the plot will collapse later. I don't believe that the high school students who have never talked to their girlfriends can really write a romance novel with a girl as the protagonist that is loved by female readers on the market. ”
......
The editors discussed it sentence by sentence, and the conference room was in chaos.
Compared with the previous discussion, the discussion about the journey of youth is obviously much more anxious.
Editors who have a competitive relationship with each other will not be polite at the serial meeting, and they will do their best to hold on to one point and attack each other with all their might.
"The first three chapters of this novel are contrived, and I have studied them carefully, and it is not as discussed in the same situation..... In fact, the plot of the novel Youth Journey, from the first chapter to the third chapter, the excitement of each chapter is increasing..."Tang Yin said calmly.
"Even I personally think .... Even if the youth journey is serialized on "Red Maple", it can also achieve the popularity of the top three or more. It's just because the creator Xia Yan is a rookie author that I propose to put this novel in "Instant Fanghua".... I hope that when you question this novel, you should focus on the plot and not pay too much attention to the author's qualifications. The dragon kingdom is so big.... Some are newcomer light novel authors who became famous in one book. ”
"But that's just your opinion, and I think, probably, probably, if, this wording, is all unknown..... And we, the book club, don't need to take this risk. After all, "Instant Fanghua" is the third best-selling journal in our bookstore, and I propose to put the novel "Journey of Youth" to be serialized in "Xunyin"..."A female editor who competes with Tang Yin at this serialization conference immediately said.
She knows very well that the novel she submitted is far less exciting and infectious than the youth journey, and the quality of the work, and the novel she proposed to be serialized in "Instant Fanghua" is really a complete failure. Now it's natural to steer the topic and clear yourself of a strong competitor.
At this time, the role of the editor-in-chief Han Yun is reflected, and the discussion of a pot of porridge will not be fruitful, but it is different if there is a person who makes a decision.
She thought about it for a moment and asked her assistant to bring the manuscripts for the last two chapters of the Youth Journey and distribute them to the editors.
After all, the serial meeting pays attention to efficiency, and if every novel reads two or three chapters and a plot of fifty or sixty thousand words, it will be too procrastinating.
However, if people are undecided about a novel and the discussion is loud, if the contributor has a follow-up plot manuscript, they can spend more time on one or two high-quality novels.
Five minutes later.....
Dozens of editors in the entire conference room were silent......
Indeed, the plot of the first three chapters of the novel Journey of Youth is more exciting than one chapter.
The image of the female protagonist Futaba is becoming more and more pleasing, the emotional progress of her and the male protagonist, and the daily plot depiction of female girlfriends and classmates on campus......
It's really like the title of the novel "The Journey of Youth".
The breath of youth came to the face, and the kind of love that made the female editors who were once girls bloom and sprouted at the beginning rose up.
Can this be a teenage novel written by a sixteen-year-old?
It's really evil!
"Pass." Han Yun put down the Chinese manuscript in her hand, smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said softly.
Although she is a woman in her forties, her demeanor and voice are very elegant.
But none of the editors objected to her decision at the moment.
People have written three chapters of novels in a row so wonderfully, and you still have to attack with those previous topics, then it's not interesting.
And Han Yun's words are not to be determined, but passed, which shows her recognition of the quality of the novel Youth Journey.
Hearing this, Tang Yin let out a long breath.....
.....
