Chapter 101 This little brother is quite fierce
The next morning.
Lin Weimin called Yu Hua to his office, explained to him in detail the things to pay attention to when revising the manuscript, and then returned the manuscript full of comments to him.
The ending of "Star" needs major changes, but that doesn't mean other parts don't need to be modified.
Looking at the dense comments on the manuscript, Yu Hua was deeply moved and full of admiration for Lin Weimin's serious and dedicated attitude.
"That's it. Go back to the dormitory and revise the manuscript first. If there's anything you don't understand or can't figure out, then talk to me."
"Okay, Mr. Lin, I understand."
Yu Hua nodded to Lin Weimin and left the office.
After a busy morning, after lunch, Lin Weimin went to the corridor to play table tennis.
He continued working in the afternoon. During the review period, Lin Weimin raised his head to relax his cervical spine, thinking that he didn't know whether Yu Hua could revise the manuscript.
At Guowen Press, almost every month there are writers from other places who come to revise manuscripts. The most efficient ones can revise them in a few weeks, while the inefficient ones may not be able to revise them well even after several months.
Many people even get so exhausted from revising their manuscripts that they become exhausted, with the manuscripts becoming worse and worse, and the editors have no choice but to give up.
When it was almost time to get off work, everyone in the office put down their work and started chatting.
"Teacher Lin!" Yu Hua knocked on the office door.
"Yu Hua is here. Is there something you can't figure out?" Lin Weimin asked with a smile.
Yu Hua smiled shyly, holding the manuscript in his hand, and said to Lin Weimin: "Teacher Lin, I have finished the revision."
"Oh, you've finished the revision? Good, you've finished the revision. Oh, you've finished the revision..." Lin Weimin reacted as he spoke, and his voice rose a few notches. "You've finished the revision?"
Yu Hua nodded with a simple expression and said, "Yes, it's finished."
"this……"
Lin Weimin hesitated and took the manuscript handed to him by Yu Hua.
The reactions of other colleagues in the office were not much stronger than Lin Weimin's. They all looked at Yu Hua with a bit of surprise.
"Stars" is a short story, and the content is not long. Lin Weimin took more than 20 minutes to finish reading it.
Then he raised his head and looked at Yu Hua, who was looking at him expectantly.
"Teacher Lin, what do you think of the changes?"
Lin Weimin was hit hard. He thought he had gained a new younger brother, but looking at his current condition, this younger brother is quite fierce!
"Teacher Rong, you are here, please help Yu Hua."
Lin Weimin did not answer Yu Hua's words, but handed the manuscript to Rong Shihui.
Yu Hua looked at Lin Weimin's actions and didn't understand what he meant.
Rong Shihui's expression became even more surprised until he finished reading the manuscript of "Xingxing".
"Yeah, not bad."
After hearing his comments, Yu Hua said excitedly: "Teacher, can my manuscript be published?"
Lin Weimin said, "Don't worry. The manuscripts have been reviewed and proofread three times, and they still need to pass the editor-in-chief's review."
"oh."
Lin Weimin stood up and patted Yu Hua on the shoulder, "You are really good! I didn't expect you to be so efficient!"
Yu Hua smiled and said, "Teacher Lin, you wrote your comments in such detail. Wouldn't it be stupid of me to not make corrections?"
"Haha!" Lin Weimin smiled without saying anything, his eyes moving around among his colleagues. Sure enough, these people all had different expressions.
Lin Weimin learned how to give review comments on manuscripts from senior editors.
If writers could complete manuscript revisions quickly and well with the review comments, then everyone’s workload would not be as heavy as it is now.
Yu Hua's words are indeed a bit Versailles. He doesn't know the real situation of writers revising manuscripts these days.
When it comes to revising manuscripts, there is no colleague in the editorial department who is not worried.
"Okay. The manuscript has been revised well. We'll wait for the editor-in-chief to read it. If there are no problems, it can be published after being approved." Lin Weimin said to Hua.
"That's great!" Yu Hua jumped up happily.
Everyone in the office couldn't help but compare him with Lin Weimin when they saw him. They were both twenty years old. In the past, they always thought that Lin Weimin was jumpy, like a Monkey King.
Now it seems that Weimin is still mature, just jumping around occasionally.
After Hua was happy, Lin Weimin said, "You can have fun in Yanjing these few days. I will talk to you when the manuscript is finalized."
"Okay, Teacher Lin."
Yu Hua left the office with great joy.
Liu Yin smiled and said, "Like master, like disciple! I didn't expect Xiao Yu is also a quick shooter."
The other colleagues burst into laughter. Lin Weimin's efficiency in writing articles is now recognized not only by the editorial department of Contemporary Magazine, but also in the entire magazine.
No one expected that even the author Lin Weimin is now so efficient.
Lin Weimin listened to everyone's teasing and couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
He didn't expect things to turn out like this.
He couldn't help but sigh that talent was really unreasonable!
After work in the evening, Lin Weimin had dinner and rode his bike to the National Theatre of China.
During the Chinese New Year, the rehearsal of "The Intouchables" was suspended for a period of time, but now the rehearsals are being stepped up intensively.
Arriving at the rehearsal room, Lin Weimin greeted everyone. The actors on the stage were rehearsing their scenes. Lin Weimin sat down next to director Ouyang Shanzun.
After chatting for a while, Ouyang Shanzun said, "Teacher Lin, I heard from Shizhi that you are writing a book in your hand?"
Lin Weimin thought that it must be the teacher who told Yi Shizhi about this.
"Yeah, it's good. It was originally a novel I just wrote. The teacher thought it was good, so he asked me to write a script to see if it could be used by the theater."
Ouyang Shanzun said happily: "It can be used, it will definitely work, Teacher Lin, there must be no problem with your script."
Lin Weimin laughed and said, "Director, your confidence in me is a bit blind!"
Lan Yinhai said, "The director is not blind. He has been watching our play 'The Intouchables' from beginning to end. He knows your strength very well."
The colorful sedan was carried by everyone. Facing the compliments from the two old seniors, Lin Weimin remained calm, mainly because he had heard too many such words during this period.
"You two are too kind."
After some jokes, everyone turned their attention back to the actors on stage.
After two months of rehearsal, the actors were able to fully restore the essence of the script, and their performance was even better than Lin Weimin had expected.
"It should be almost done after a few more days of rehearsal. The academy plans to hold a public performance at the end of this month." Ouyang Shanzun said.
Hearing this good news, Lin Weimin was delighted. "I really want to see the performance soon. Everyone's performance is so wonderful. It will definitely receive rave reviews."
Lan Yinhai said: "It's mainly because the script is good."
Lin Weimin said embarrassedly: "Teacher Lan, if you keep saying that, I can't stand staying in this rehearsal room any longer."
