Hearing this, Mrs. Tao stopped folding the quilt and quickly turned on the radio.

An An ran back home and listened to "Military Soul" with his parents.

This was the first time he listened to it, and he listened very carefully and attentively. Li Xia noticed that there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

It was not until the announcer finished reading the last sentence that An An threw herself into Gu Weicheng's arms and shouted, "Dad!"

He thought of his own father through Jiang Xiaohao's father and felt some empathy.

When Ji Feng saw his little master crying, he turned around anxiously and leaned close to An An, trying to comfort him.

Also listening to the radio were Zhao Xiulan and her family.

This radio was bought for her by Jiang Guotai with the allowance he had saved up from his missions, saying that he wanted her to be able to listen to operas on the radio in her free time.

Now, she uses it to listen to stories about him.

When the commander learned that the article written by Li Xia was being broadcast on the radio, he notified everyone to listen to this article "Military Soul" when it was replayed the next day.

Not only the soldiers, but also their families need to listen.

Before, a small number of military families who always heard about how powerful Li Xia was were still a little unconvinced. However, after listening to "Military Soul", they realized that Li Xia was really capable and were completely convinced.

No wonder the leaders always praise Li Xia, she really has the ability. They listened to her with the intention of finding fault, but they couldn't help crying!

The army’s radio station also specially read this manuscript.

After the last sentence, all the soldiers stood at attention and saluted towards the sky.

This military salute is for their comrades who sacrificed their lives for the country, and for the motherland they love!

Every inch of the mountains and rivers is a dream, and the heart of a child is bright and innocent.

…

That day, Li Xia received a telegram. When she opened it, she found out it was from Qiao Ran.

The telegram said that she had read the manuscript sent by Li Xia and thought it was very well written. As a woman herself, she was very happy that Li Xia could write about this kind of female subject. It was just that Zhao Di was too pitiful and she felt very distressed reading it.

At the same time, Qiao Ran also asked the same question as Gu Weicheng at the end: Can Zhaodi go to school?

When Li Xia saw this question, she couldn't help laughing. It seemed that she was really good at punctuating the chapters. Even the editor Qiao Ran felt anxious when reading this.

I hope that when it is serialized in newspapers, it will also achieve good results and make the "New Evening News" a big seller!

At the same time, it can also change the fate of some girls.

According to her understanding, the country had actually begun to implement family planning at this time, but it was not strictly enforced at the moment, and it was not fully implemented, and two children were allowed. When it entered the 1980s, the family planning policy would be strictly implemented.

After the family planning policy was implemented, those who wanted to have a boy would do anything to achieve their goal.

What Li Xia can do is to use her pen to write stories like "Zhao Di" to let everyone know that girls are no worse than boys and that girls also have a bright future!

On the same day, Li Xia received another telegram from Qiao Ran.

The telegram said that "Zhao Di" had been serialized in the "New Evening News" last week. Only 10,000 words were published for the first time, with an excerpt of a key point. The remaining 10,000 words were serialized just yesterday.

Qiao Ran said that when "Zhao Di" was first serialized in "Xin Wan Bao", the sales of "Xin Wan Bao" did not increase much, and she thought she had miscalculated this time. Unexpectedly, when "Zhao Di" was serialized in "Xin Wan Bao" for the second time, the sales of "Xin Wan Bao" increased by more than two times!

She went to a newsstand and pretended to be a passerby to buy a newspaper. The owner told her that the New Evening News was sold out directly, and if she wanted to buy it, she could only wait for the newspaper to continue printing!

The editor was very happy when he found out about this and said that he would increase Li Xia's manuscript fee from 8 yuan per thousand words to 10 yuan per thousand words.

Li Xia was also asked to update as soon as possible. From then on, Li Xia's novels were serialized twice a week instead of once a week, which means that he had to submit a manuscript of 20,000 words a week.

This is not difficult for Li Xia, as she only needs to write three thousand words a day.

She can now write 5,000 words a day and still have 2,000 words left in reserve.

What Qiao Ran didn’t say was that she almost had a fight with one of her male colleagues in order to get a prominent section for Zhao Di.

That colleague thought that the subject matter of Zhao Di was not well chosen: "Novels serialized in newspapers should choose positive and uplifting subjects. What is the content of Zhao Di?

The author's writing skills are OK, but this kind of subject matter is not appealing at all. Even if someone reads it, it will only be women. And now most people who have jobs and can afford to subscribe to newspapers are men. How could they like to read this kind of story? This section should be left to the novels of the author I have, because what he writes is what men like to read. "

"Don't talk nonsense in front of me. I've read the book in your hand. It tells the story of a male educated youth who went to the countryside and had all kinds of stories with this female educated youth and that girl from the village. Do you think you can cover up this fact by pretending to be studying hard?

If all gay men like to read novels like this, then I'll make it clear that gay men in our country are doomed!" When Qiao Ran talked about the content of the story, she couldn't hide her disgust in her eyes.

"Besides, who told you that most people with jobs are men? Is it your mother or your sister who doesn't have a job? Open your eyes and take a closer look. Among the editors of our newspaper alone, there are more women than men!"

The male colleague was speechless and couldn't say anything for a long time.

In the end, Qiao Ran grabbed the most prominent section of the New Evening News for Li Xia, while the novel in the male colleague's hand was changed to a different date for publication.

Three days after Li Xia received Qiao Ran's telegram, she received another package from the newspaper.

When Li Xia went to pick up the package, she found that this package was much larger than before. If her name was not clearly written on the package, Li Xia would have thought that the postman had made a mistake.
