Chapter 172 The 1990s: The Rural Writer’s Cannon Fodder Son (12)



"Historical Fun" magazine.

Although the magazine requires that the content of the article should be consistent with the epic, there are still countless articles every day that are incoherent and illogical.

The editors of the magazine were all miserable.

If I don't read them at all, I worry about missing out on good manuscripts.

But if they read them all, those low-quality manuscripts would only give them a headache.

Most people choose to compromise - that is, read the beginning of each article first.

If you are interested, please continue reading. If you are not interested, please share it with another person.

They usually work in groups of three to avoid the loss of manuscripts due to personal preferences of editors.

However, most of the time, the three of them couldn't finish reading the manuscripts they received.

That day, Song Ming, as usual, started reading the manuscripts one by one from the moment he sat down at his workstation.

The movements were skillful, yet numb.

Most of the historical manuscripts that are truly useful come from several history experts and some history department students.

There are very few social articles.

Song Ming flipped through them one by one and casually threw them to another editor in the same group, Zheng Yuan.

Zheng Yuan's speed was comparable to Song Ming's. He couldn't stand it anymore and gave up.

He picked up the next manuscript at hand, continued to read it, and continued to abandon it.

But after looking for a long time, he didn't find the manuscript, and he was delighted:

"So few manuscripts today? Looks like I can leave work on time today."

Normally, if there is a manuscript that they haven't finished reading, they have to work overtime.

As he spoke, he turned and looked at Song Ming.

Upon seeing this, his expression changed again.

There was a large pile of manuscripts next to Song Ming's hand, and the number was no different from usual.

Zheng Yuan: ...

It’s too early to be happy!

He shifted his gaze to Song Ming, and only then discovered that Song Ming had been reading a manuscript for a long time, his eyes shining, with no intention of putting it down.

In the short time he was staring at him, the guy had already turned two pages.

Zheng Yuan's eyes widened in surprise.

You have to know that they read so many manuscripts every day. Even if they are from real masters, they only read one or two pages at most before deciding whether to use them or not.

But the manuscript in Song Ming's hand has already been read to the third page!

Zheng Yuan became curious and kept staring at Song Ming.

Song Ming never expected that in his editing career, there would be a manuscript that made him eager to read the entire text upon the first review.

He didn't even realize that he had finished reading it!

When the last word fell, he reluctantly put the manuscript down and let out a long breath, feeling a little lost: "How could it be gone?"

A hand suddenly reached out and snatched the manuscript from his hand.

Song Ming subconsciously wanted to snatch it.

When I turned around, I saw Zheng Yuan from the same group and I breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, we are in the same group. If someone else found out, this manuscript would have been snatched away!

As for the quality of this article, Song Ming had no doubt about it at all.

Zheng Yuan ignored his nervousness and looked at the manuscript in his hand curiously.

At first glance, well, it's a good start and very attractive.

On second glance, the writing is also very fluent and the wording is precise.

The third eye...

Zheng Yuan no longer had time to think, nor did he have time to evaluate the manuscript from an editor's perspective.

He was completely attracted by the manuscript.

After reading the manuscript in his hand, the other person was also attracted by Zheng Yuan's actions.

So, after the manuscript was circulated among the three of them twice, they were finally satisfied.

"Such a great manuscript must be on the cover this time! I'm going to find the editor-in-chief!"

Song Ming read the entire article again.

Fortunately, he had watched it twice before, so he was finally able to control his excitement.

Picking up the manuscript, he walked towards the editor-in-chief's office.

Zheng Yuan looked at his back and felt particularly happy.

After working for so many years, I finally saw a good article.

Both he and Lao Song were equally relieved and excited.

He couldn't help but start recalling the article from memory.

Although he didn't remember it completely, just a rough idea made him more and more excited the more he thought about it.

The new issue of "Historical Fun" suddenly beat out other magazines and jumped to fifth place in the magazine sales rankings!

You know, history has always been an unpopular subject. Not many people are interested in it, and even fewer are willing to spend money to buy magazines.

But this time, they actually made it to the sales charts for the first time!

The editors of "Historical Fun" magazine were shocked when they heard the news.

But the data was there, and they were surprised and couldn't help but become curious about why this issue of "Interesting Historical Stories" was such a big hit.

This understanding immediately unearthed a new writer named Xin Tianmu.

When other magazines saw this name, they were stunned.

This is a new star in the literary world in the past two years. I didn’t expect that he not only has great writing skills, but also has profound historical knowledge and unique insights.

The Beijing Writers Association has also been paying attention to this new literary star in the past two years.

After receiving the news, the president of the Writers Association immediately stamped the invitation letter.

*

Xin Guoguo didn't expect that she would receive an invitation to the annual meeting of the Beijing Writers Association.

Her real name and pen name were clearly written on the gold-embossed invitation.

The official seal of the Beijing Writers Association cannot be faked.

After reading it over and over again several times, Xin Guoguo finally accepted this fact.

My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
