Chapter 90 The meat and potatoes of the Humanities Club(2/2)
.”
After a brief introduction, Yue Hongzhi found two stools, asked the two of them to sit down, and then started pouring water.
"Stop being busy, he has to go back to work, to make a long story short." Zhou Yanru said.
In fact, there is nothing to talk about. The Humanities Society wants to publish a separate volume of "Little Shoes", and it is just for the author and editor to meet and get familiar with it.
The few of them chatted about daily life. When they heard that Lin Chaoyang worked in the Yanda Library, Yue Hongzhi was in awe. This is an amazing place.
After chatting for a while about the creation experience of "Little Shoes", a loud male voice came from the corridor.
"Is Xu Lingjun here? Where is he?"
The people who were talking stopped and looked towards the door.
I saw a serious-looking middle-aged man looking at the door. He glanced around the editing room and his eyes immediately focused on Lin Chaoyang.
There were two outsiders in the editing room, Lin Chaoyang and Zhou Yanru, and Lin Chaoyang was a stranger, so he could naturally spot them at a glance.
Li Shuguang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not done talking yet!"
"It's okay, you guys chat first, I'll come over and take a look."
The middle-aged man said this, but his eyes were like a goblin staring at Lin Chaoyang after seeing Tang Monk's flesh.
Li Shuguang smiled at Lin Chaoyang, "You can become the meat and potatoes of our humanities club this time."
"Okay! There's nothing to talk about. Xiaoyue will contact you if there are any problems later. You deal with him first." Li Shuguang pursed his lips towards the door.
Four or five days ago, Xu Huaizhong, a military writer in the army, went to the editorial office of "People's Literature", found the editor-in-chief Zhang Guangnian, muttered for a while, and left a manuscript.
Zhang Guangnian assigned the manuscript to Cui Daoyi, who was in charge of the northern section of the novel, and asked him to review it as soon as possible.
The review system of the editorial department is a three-review system. Cui Daoyi is the person in charge of the North Novels Group of "People's Literature". He is assisted by Wang Fu and others. Generally, after the editors under him do the first review, he will then give the second review.
Finally, it will be submitted to the editor-in-chief for final review. Some works that are more controversial or may cause influence will also need to be reviewed by the chief editor together.
As soon as Zhang Guangnian came in, he asked Cui Daoyi to review the manuscript. At first, he thought someone was going to use the back door, and he felt very uncomfortable.
But within half an hour of reading the manuscript, he changed his mind.
After spending two days carefully reading the manuscript, Cui Daoyi can say with certainty that this is an extremely outstanding war-themed novel.
But he looked at the signature on the manuscript and had doubts again. Of course he knew Xu Lingjun's name.
Last year's "Wrangler" and this year's "Little Shoes", this writer can be said to be popular in the literary world, but why are his novels sent by the army?
Cui Daoyi went to Zhang Guangnian to understand the situation. Zhang Guangnian was helpless after being questioned by him, so he told him that the novel was originally sent to the army for review because it involved the ongoing war in the south. The army leaders thought it was very good after reading it.
, I wanted to find an authoritative literary magazine to publish it, so I sent it to "People's Literature".
After understanding the situation, Cui Daoyi didn't say anything else, as long as he didn't go through the back door.
When people in later generations mention the literary flourishing of the 1980s, the style of famous editors is indispensable. At that time, there were four editors in Yanjing City who were called the "Four Famous Editors" by busy people in the literary world, and Cui Daoyi was one of them.
Cui Daoyi has his own insistence on his career. Of course, he does not want works that are not worthy of the name to be published in "People's Literature", a prestigious publication in Chinese literature.
