1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 474 Deputy Editor-in-Chief

At the beginning of March, the news of commodity price adjustment in Shanghai spread to the whole country, which opened the prelude to the price breakthrough and panic buying wave in 3. People in the wave of the times are all affected by such changes.

As a result, the number of manuscripts submitted by the editorial department of "Contemporary" has ushered in another wave of increase. After all, the manuscript fee is high, and it is also the publication of works. Posting in "Contemporary" means that it can make more money. Who wouldn't do it?
Writers have to eat too!
A few days after the third issue of "Contemporary" was released in March, the Guowen News Agency greeted the editorial department of "Contemporary" and wanted to publish the third volume of "Ordinary World".

This novel has just been published in the second issue, and it will be published in a single volume in just over a month, mainly because "Ordinary World" is broadcast on the radio so well.

Since September last year, the first and second parts of "Ordinary World" have been successively broadcast on the "Long-form Series" program of China Central People's Broadcasting Station, and have received strong responses from readers.

At the end of the year, Lu Yao finished revising the third part while he was ill. The radio station had no time to wait for the novel to be published, so he took the proof and recorded the program. When the third part was published in "Contemporary", half of the program on the radio station had already been broadcast.

Last month, the third broadcast of "The Ordinary World" ended, and radio stations across the country started a new round of broadcasts, giving a saturated broadcast to many radio listeners.

But among those who listen to the radio, there are very few who have not heard of the novel "Ordinary World".

As the broadcast of the program became popular among the people, the calls for the publication of the novel grew louder and louder. The Guowen Society decided to comply with public opinion and release the third volume as a single volume with the fastest efficiency.

Lin Weimin called Lu Yao, and Lu Yao was extremely happy to hear the readers' voices.

"Ordinary World" contains his painstaking efforts for many years, and he still insisted on creating during his illness. Now that his work is becoming more and more popular, he is naturally very happy.

The third volume of "The Ordinary World" was published, with an initial printing of 20 copies. Lu Yao received a manuscript fee of 3000 yuan, including the basic manuscript fee and the number of copies.

If the novel is printed and republished in the future, he will also receive a lot of remuneration for the number of copies.

Lu Yao thanked Lin Weimin on the phone, "This year's prices have risen sharply, and your manuscript has solved my urgent need!"

"As long as you don't spend extravagantly, this money is enough for your family to live for several years." Lin Weimin warned.

What he is most afraid of is that Lu Yao's body will recover and his old ways will germinate.

After calling Lu Yao, Lin Weimin received another call from Yu Hua.

In January, Yu Hua had graduated from the writer class of the National Academy of Letters, returned to Zhijiang, and was transferred to the JX City Federation of Literary and Art Circles as the editor of the association's publication "Yanyulou".

"Ms. Lin, Mr. Lin, my novel is finished!"

Yu Hua's tone on the phone was very excited, like a primary school student who has finished his homework and is waiting for the teacher to praise him.

"Finished? Well, it's okay, I thought I had to wait until Mo Yan graduated!"

The light sarcasm instantly extinguished Yu Hua's good mood, do you always chat?

"Has the novel been mailed yet?"

"It's been mailed, it's been mailed!" Yu Hua hurriedly said.

"Okay, got it, wait for the news!"

After Lin Weimin finished speaking, he hung up the phone, which hurt Yu Hua very much.

The novel is finished, and there is not even a word of praise.

Lin Weimin turned to Tong Zhonggui and said, "See, you have written a novel in three years? The films adapted from other people's novels have won awards for more than a year. Can you treat such a person with a good attitude? You must encourage them!" "

Tong Zhonggui nodded and took down Teacher Lin's lesson.

"Looking back, bring his novel to me when it arrives." Lin Weimin urged again.

"it is good."

A few days later, Lin Weimin got off work in the evening and ran to the Shichahai courtyard. Tao Huimin went to other places to film location scenes at the beginning of the new year, leaving him alone.

"Tiesheng! Tiesheng!"

Lin Weimin pushed the courtyard door and called Shi Tiesheng's name. When he entered the courtyard, he first saw Cheng Ximi holding a spatula.

"It's in the study!" Cheng Ximi said from the kitchen.

When Lin Weimin entered the study, Shi Tiesheng had just rolled his wheelchair to the door, but there was a threshold at the door, so he couldn't get out.

"How many times have I told you, you just dismantle this thing!" Lin Weimin complained.

"It's okay to keep it, just to keep out the rats." Shi Tiesheng replied.

Shi Tiesheng lives in Lin Weimin's house, and everything is good, except that there are many rooms and many thresholds. For this purpose, Father Shi specially prepared several triangular wooden boxes nailed with wooden boards, one at the door of each house.

But sometimes it is still inconvenient. The height of the threshold is too high. Even if it becomes a slope, the wheelchair cannot be rolled over, and someone has to push it.

Lin Weimin asked Shi Tiesheng to remove the threshold several times, but Shi Tiesheng didn't do it.He wanted to do it himself, but Shi Tiesheng stopped him.

The house belonged to Lin Weimin, and Shi Tiesheng was borrowing it. Of course, he didn't want to destroy it. Lin Weimin planned to tear down the threshold someday when he was not at home.

The two had just chatted for a while, when Cheng Ximi called for dinner, Lin Weimin pushed Shi Tiesheng to the kitchen for dinner, and Shi Lan, who hadn't been seen all this time, suddenly appeared.

"I can't see you when I'm cooking, but you're active when I'm eating."

Lin Weimin made a sarcasm at her, which drew a pair of blank eyes.

Everyone was eating, and Shi Lan was the first to finish her meal, pushing her bicycle outside.

"What is this girl doing?"

Shi Tiesheng said: "Go to the movies!"

"Are you dating?"

"Ah."

Lin Weimin sighed: "It's so fast, this girl is in love."

"When did you get married? Didn't you rush to go to your mother-in-law's house during Chinese New Year?" Shi Tiesheng asked.

"It's all agreed, when Huimin finishes filming, it will be at the end of this year or early next year, depending on the situation."

Shi Tiesheng smiled and said, "You two have been in love for a long time."

Lin Weimin asked back: "Comrade Ximi definitely disagrees with this."

Cheng Ximi laughed when he heard this.

She and Shi Tiesheng corresponded for almost ten years, and finally got married last year.

After dinner, Lin Weimin, Shi Tiesheng, his wife and father Shi watched TV in the living room.

CCTV's "Desire" has come to an end and is about to usher in the finale.

The [-]-episode length of "Longing" is very rare in China today. The last TV series of this length broadcast by CCTV was "The Story of a Female Doctor".

Once the TV series was broadcast, it was warmly welcomed by the TV audience. The whole country mourned Liu Huifang, the whole country scolded Wang Husheng, and everyone lamented Song Dacheng. The ending was different from the original version under Lin Weimin's guidance, and the praise was even worse.

Several leading actors in the TV series became famous because of this, and Zhang Kaili, who played Liu Huifang, became the standard for Chinese men to choose their daughter-in-law and mother-in-law to choose their daughter-in-law in just one month, perfectly interpreting the image of a good wife and loving mother.

Father Shi watched the TV series and lamented that Zhang Kaili played well, and she must be a good wife and mother in life.

Lin Weimin joked, "Uncle, you're a character filter. I've seen this actor before, but he's just a slob."

Cheng Ximi was amused by his words, "For the people, your words are too hurtful."

The TV series ended, and Lin Weimin left.

Two days later, there was a meeting in the agency, and Lin Weimin somehow got the title of Deputy Editor-in-Chief.

When Cheng Zaochun talked to him, Lin Weimin was at a loss.

When he was promoted to the director of the editorial department before, Cheng Zaochun had a special talk with him.

When Lao Meng was the director of the editorial department of "Contemporary", he had the name of deputy editor-in-chief, and when Lao Qin was the director, he still had the name of deputy editor-in-chief.

"Contemporary" has a high status in the Guowen Society, and the two are seniors, so it's justifiable to be a deputy editor-in-chief.

When it came to Lin Weimin, considering that his qualifications were still relatively low and the director was promoted, he would not be given the name of the deputy editor-in-chief. Lin Weimin also understood very well during the conversation.

This time he was suddenly told to let him be the deputy editor-in-chief. Lin Weimin didn't understand how this good thing came about for a while.

Cheng Zaochun pointed out: "The old man will retire next week."

Lin Weimin was stunned. He didn't expect that this time, the Border Agency made up for it before leaving, and the position of deputy editor-in-chief returned to Lin Weimin. He also got the treatment he deserved.

"The leader handles this matter, pay attention to it!"

Lin Weimin sighed, but did not notice Cheng Zaochun's contemptuous gaze.

If you are promoted, you are a leader. If you are not promoted, you may be scolding in your heart!

Cheng Zaochun thought to himself that he knew the monkey grandson too well.

"No, I have to treat the leader to dinner!" Lin Weimin said.

"The leader sent you this meal? You are wooing and corrupting leading cadres!" Cheng Zaochun sarcastically said.

Lin Weimin refused to accept, "Who corrupts cadres with a single meal? You don't treat leaders as cadres too much. It really is people who take the tea!"

Lin Weimin was so familiar with the operation of killing people and punishing one's heart, that one sentence aroused Cheng Zaochun's anger.

After exchanging a few words, Lin Weimin left Cheng Zaochun's office.

A few days later, the appointment announcement appeared on the bulletin board of the Guowen Society, and colleagues gathered around the bulletin board to discuss.

"This speed is not so fast as a rocket!"

"A 28-year-old deputy editor-in-chief and director of the editorial department, hehe, we are the only one in the Chinese Literature Society!"

"It is said that it was specifically explained by the leader before he left."

"I heard, it's about compensating for the last suspension! It should be. He writes a novel, puts it on the line, and it's separated from the department. What's the style!"

"Hey, let's act like a remnant!"

"I heard that the other side didn't do well either. Both sides played [-] boards each."

……

Lin Weimin was promoted to deputy editor-in-chief, and immediately became a hot topic of discussion among the staff of the Guowen Society.

But discussion is discussion, and in the general environment of the Guowen Society, very few people say anything sour.

Lin Weimin has always been very popular in the Guowen Society, and "Contemporary" is also well-known by him. The most important thing is that he also does a good side job. The novel has won so many awards and has a huge influence. Whether it is honor or wealth, it has long been separated from everyone. layers up.

That's just how people are, when you're faced with someone who is a little stronger than you, you might be jealous.

But in the face of people who are much stronger than you, you will only be left with the admiration of the weak for the strong.

In addition to these, there is another point that the sales of Lin Weimin's works have a huge impact on the benefits of the Guowen Society, and everyone benefits in disguise.

There is no reason why such a person should not be welcomed as a leader.

On this day, Lin Weimin became the focus of attention of the colleagues of the Guowen Society, and the colleagues in the editorial department coaxed Zhang Luo to treat him to dinner.

The 28-year-old deputy editor-in-chief of the Guowen Society only appeared in special years, but most of those people were ignorant and incompetent, and they just took advantage of the loopholes.

When Lin Weimin came back from his post, he just invited guests, and immediately rejected the unreasonable demands of these people.

He had just returned to the office when the phone rang.

It was Yu Hua again, urging him if he had received the manuscript.

"What a hurry! You might as well think about what to write in your next work if you have this time."

"I'm almost conceiving my next work, and it's entirely inspired and nourished from you."

Hearing what Yu Hua said, Lin Weimin became interested, and urged, "Then write it quickly. If you write it well, I will let you enjoy the headline treatment."

"I want big font size!" Yu Hua bargained.

Lin Weimin scolded: "I haven't written a novel yet, so I'm daydreaming!"

"This is also one of the motivations for my writing!" Yu Hua insisted.

"Then write well, write well, everything is possible!"

Yu Hua readily agreed, and hung up the phone cheerfully.

When it comes to painting cakes, Mr. Lin is a professional.
