Lin An'an transmigrated into a book! She became the sickly supporting female character, the male lead's short-lived former wife. Not only was she fated for a short life, but after her death...
Chapter 312 Valuable People
Editor Liu waved his hand. "Why should I worry? You deserve it. Your book is selling well. Many readers have given feedback that it is profound and inspiring. By the way, please tell me about the two new manuscripts. I am very curious."
As the two walked back, Lin Anan whispered the content.
"This is a book about women. In today's society, women's power is slowly awakening, but there are still many constraints. I hope this book can become a clarion call for more women to realize their own value, bravely pursue life, and break those invisible shackles...
The other one is to give voice to those unknown revolutionary heroes who have contributed silently behind the scenes. They may not be in the spotlight, but every effort they have made is worth remembering. This book is to show their stories and let the public see that in fact, there have always been people who have been carrying the burden for our beautiful life..."
Editor Liu nodded his head with admiration in his eyes, "Teacher Lin, your topic is so meaningful. This is the kind of in-depth and thought-provoking work we need right now.
By the way, the case of women trafficking has been very serious recently. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I will promote your book "Shackles". It will definitely sell well! I will arrange a review right away and give you feedback as soon as possible. "
Look, that’s why he is a great editor, he is so sensitive.
"Thank you very much. By the way, I have something else to tell you. The Northwest Theater Army Vanguard Cultural Troupe will hold its first charity performance on August 15. It will be quite large and will be held at the Tianhe Grand Theater. I happen to have seats in the front row of the backstage, and I have reserved three for you. If you have time, bring your family or friends to watch it."
Editor Liu was visibly stunned, "This..."
It would be a lie to say that I wasn't moved, but Editor Liu didn't dare to respond!
The front row of the inner court was where all the important people sat. How could he, an editor, have the honor to...
Lin Anan saw Editor Liu's hesitation and explained with a smile: "Editor Liu, don't think too much. This charity performance is for the whole people. The purpose is to raise funds and cheer for the disaster-stricken people in Henan Province. We hope that people from all walks of life can participate and feel the warmth and strength.
You are usually exposed to many cultural and artistic fields and have a unique vision. My younger brother also went on stage this time. He wrote an original song called "Dawn Ahead", which is very appealing. I thought that if you went, you might have unique insights and be able to give some guidance to young people, which would be of great benefit to their growth. "
Editor Liu certainly understood the hint. "You can give me some advice, but it's all trivial. It's just that this front row seat is too valuable. I really don't deserve it!"
"Okay, don't be polite, we are all family. This charity performance is of great significance to the art troupe and the victims. Everyone has put in so much effort. We are just joining in the fun."
Editor Liu's expression became serious. "Thank you, Mr. Lin. I will obey your orders. Your family is really talented!"
"It's just a personal hobby, it's not that exaggerated."
"I will also work on your two manuscripts as soon as possible and try to get them published as soon as possible so that they can play a greater role."
The two chatted and returned to Yingyuan Publishing House.
As soon as she arrived at Editor Liu's office, Lin Anan actually met the editor-in-chief of Yingyuan Publishing House.
"Editor-in-Chief Xie, why are you here?"
Editor Liu and Lin Anan looked at each other and immediately introduced the two to each other.
The editor-in-chief of Yingyuan Publishing House is Xie Qiangbei, who is in his early thirties, a little thin, and looks gentle and refined.
"Teacher Lin."
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Xie."
In fact, as an author, Lin Anan is really a newcomer, and she has only been in the industry for a short time. However, she has published two books, which have become hits, and the sales volume is still increasing dramatically.
Upon hearing that Lin Anan had submitted another manuscript, Editor-in-Chief Xie hurried over and personally looked through the first draft of the new book.
At just one glance, he was attracted by the content.
The subject matter is novel, the writing is powerful, the style is crisp and clear, and almost every page is the key point.
Editor-in-Chief Xie could not help but exclaim: "Teacher Lin, the quality of your manuscript is really excellent! In the current book market, it is rare to find such a profound and unique work."
As he spoke, he carefully flipped through a few more pages, and the admiration in his eyes became more intense.
Lin Anan smiled modestly, "Thank you for the compliment, Editor-in-Chief. I just wrote down what I thought and saw, and I hope it can resonate with some readers."
Editor-in-Chief Xie nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "Teacher Lin, your two manuscripts, one focusing on women's consciousness and the other praising the heroes behind the scenes, are precise in their topic selection and are of great contemporary significance.
Today's society is at the cusp of change, and people are eager to draw strength and find direction from books. I believe that once these two books are published, they will attract widespread attention."
Editor Liu echoed, "Editor-in-Chief Xie is right. I have just discussed this with Teacher Lin. Taking advantage of the recent women trafficking cases that have sparked heated discussions in society, we should first release this book, Shackles. Maybe it will spark a wave of enthusiasm."
Editor-in-Chief Xie looked at Lin Anan with a sharp gaze. "Teacher Lin, our publishing house attaches great importance to your works. We will do our best to edit and promote them so that they can shine. If you have any needs in the subsequent creation process, please feel free to communicate with us."
Lin Anan was filled with gratitude. "Thank you so much, Editor-in-Chief Xie. I am very touched to receive such support from the publishing house."
The few of them had an in-depth discussion on the details of the manuscript and subsequent promotion ideas. Editor-in-Chief Xie put forward many constructive suggestions, which benefited Lin Anan a lot.
Li Lu came here after Editor-in-Chief Xie left. She was able to start designing the cover of Lin Anan's new book in advance, which was all tacitly approved by the publishing house.
Lin Anan's new book hasn't been officially finalized yet, but her cover design has been obtained first.
"Sister An An."
"Is Lulu here?"
"The cover you asked me to draw last time is ready."
The design draft that Li Lu took out was still very detailed, and Lin Anan couldn't take her eyes off it.
After professional guidance, it is indeed different!
The overall tone of the cover design of "Shackles" is dark, with dark gray and black as the main colors, creating a depressing and heavy atmosphere, hinting at the various constraints that women face in real life.
In the center of the cover is a woman's back, her body slightly bent, as if she is carrying a huge pressure. The woman's body is entangled by some invisible lines, which are like shackles, tightly binding her limbs and body. It symbolizes the traditional concepts that restrict women's development, social pressure and various difficulties in life.
Above the back, a faint light shines through the darkness, illuminating her head and shoulders. The color of the light is a soft warm tone, implying the awakening light in women's hearts and their desire for freedom and equality. The shape of the light presents irregular lines, as if struggling out of heavy constraints, giving people a sense of hope and strength.
The title of the book, “Shackles,” is written in white font in the upper left corner of the cover. The font is strong and powerful, with thick strokes, giving people a sense of firmness and resistance. The design style of the font echoes the overall atmosphere of the cover, highlighting the seriousness and profundity of the theme of the book.
Some blurred patterns can be vaguely seen in the background of the cover, like some broken mirror fragments, symbolizing the frustrations and broken dreams that women experience in the process of pursuing self-worth.
It also heralds rebirth from the cocoon!
These patterns are looming, adding a sense of layering and mystery to the cover.
