Chapter 313 Growth

Unlike "Shackles", the overall color tone of the cover of "Spine" is brighter, mainly dark blue and white, symbolizing deep dedication and pure heroic qualities.

In the center of the cover is a group of heroic silhouettes. Their postures are upright, their spines are straight, but... they are also broken. They show an indomitable spirit and a strong sense of power, but also an indelible painful sacrifice.

The actions of these silhouettes are different, some hold weapons, some open their arms, as if guarding something, implying the efforts and sacrifices made by the heroes to protect the beauty.

Above the character silhouette, there is a white light spanning the entire cover. The light runs through the entire cover like a backbone, symbolizing the importance of heroes. They are like the backbone, supporting society and the people.

The title "Spine" is written in golden font in the center of the cover. The font is solemn and majestic, giving people a sense of reverence. Gold symbolizes glory and preciousness, highlighting the dedication and value of the heroes.

There are some faint lines at the bottom of the cover, like the outline of mountains and the earth, representing the land protected by the heroes. These lines are simple and powerful, echoing the silhouettes and light of the heroes above, forming a complete picture, conveying the emotions of the heroes being closely connected with the land and the people.

The cover designs of these two books accurately convey the themes and emotions of the books through unique tones, patterns and fonts.

Lin Anan carefully examined the cover designed by Li Lu and exclaimed: "Lulu, your designs are getting better and better! These two covers perfectly match the theme of the book, and people can feel the style and emotion of the book at a glance."

Li Lu smiled a little embarrassedly, her cheeks slightly flushed, "Sister An An, thank you for the compliment. I also designed it according to your previous requirements and ideas."

Lin Anan patted Li Lu's shoulder gently and encouraged her, "Lulu, you are so talented. And you have a keen sense of art. It's great that you can accurately present what I want to express on the cover!

You are only 22 years old. As long as you keep walking steadily on this path, you will surely shine one day."

Li Lu's eyes sparkled with confidence. "Thank you for your encouragement, Sister An An. I will continue to work hard. By the way, Sister An An, the contents of these two books must be very exciting, right? When I was designing the cover, I really wanted to see the contents of the book as soon as possible."

Lin Anan smiled and nodded, "Well, I have indeed put a lot of effort into these two books, and I hope they can bring some inspiration and thinking to the readers. After they are published, I will give you a set so that you can have a sneak peek."

"Really? That's great!"

One of the story points of "Shackles"... Li Lu is the protagonist, but she should read these things herself in the future.

At this time, Editor Liu said, "Teacher Lin, Li Lu is indeed very talented. The cover she designed for your book was also very popular and received very good feedback from readers. This design is also excellent and I believe it will add a lot of color to your new book."

Lin Anan looked at Li Lu again, her eyes full of admiration, "Yes, Lulu's designs always give people surprises. Editor Liu, let's finalize the cover design. I believe that readers will be more interested in the book when they see such a beautiful cover."

Editor Liu nodded to indicate that it was okay. "Okay, since Teacher Lin is satisfied, then we will do it this way. Next, I will arrange the review and editing work as soon as possible, and strive to get the new book to meet readers as soon as possible."

Seeing that things were almost done here, Lin Anan stood up and said goodbye, "Thank you for your hard work, I should go back too."

Editor Liu and Li Lu sent Lin Anan to the door. After saying goodbye to them, Lin Anan left the publishing house.

Walking on the way home, Lin Anan felt particularly happy.

Not only did she receive attention and support from the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, but she also saw Li Lu's growth and progress, which were all very meaningful things to her.

Small people determine the big society.

As long as there is hope, if Li Lu can do it, then more female compatriots can do it too.

When she got home, Lin's mother was busy at the sewing machine. Seeing Lin An'an coming back, she asked, "An'an, how was your visit to the publishing house today? Did everything go well?"

Lin Anan smiled and told her mother about her experience today. Her mother was also very happy after hearing it. "That's good, that's good. Our Anan is the best."

Lin Anan heard her mother's coaxing tone, and her smile grew even bigger. She walked over to her and whispered, "Mom, my fee for this article is 17,800 yuan."

"ah?"

Mother Lin thought she had misheard. She paused, her face full of shock and her eyes widened. "So many? An An, did you calculate correctly?"

Lin Anan smiled and shook her head, "Mom, that's right. These two books are selling well, and the publishing house pays a lot of money.

Moreover, even the editor-in-chief of the publishing house is very optimistic about the two new manuscripts submitted this time. They said that they will arrange for review and editing as soon as possible and strive to publish them as soon as possible. "

Tears welled up in Lin's mother's eyes and she could hardly control herself.

She quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, her voice trembling, "My An An is really promising. Mom has never seen so much money in her life! With this money, your life will be better in the future."

Lin Anan held her mother's hand and patted it, "Mom, when you go back, I'll give you 5,000 yuan to take back."

Lin's mother refused immediately, "I don't want it. Your father and I have everything we need, why do we need your money? If you make money, just keep it for yourself. You still have a long life ahead of you. Treating illnesses, taking care of your body, giving birth to children, raising children, which of these doesn't cost money?"

"Mom, this money is not for you. I want you to go back and talk to my dad about replanning our old house and building a new one.

When the time comes, I will go back with Zihuai and live more comfortably, don’t you think? What if I take Mingzhou and the child back with me…”

Seeing that she was a little hesitant when she heard the word "house", Lin Anan said coquettishly: "Mom, please don't be polite to me. Besides, I am a soldier now. Apart from medical treatment, there is nothing else that needs to spend a lot of money.

It was not easy for you and dad to raise me, now it is time for me to repay you."

Mother Lin's eyes were red. Seeing her daughter speaking so carefully and softly, she realized that this was not a discussion about building a house, but a pretext to do her a favor...

"My An An!"

Mother Lin turned around and hugged her into her arms, patting Lin Anan on the back. "Mom knows you are a filial son, but I don't want this money, and I won't save it for you. The house should be renovated. I will tell your dad when I go back this time. I will make sure you live comfortably when you come back next time."
