Become a twin loli

Chapter 51 Preparing for the Competition
In "Time", an old youth literature magazine with a history of more than 20 years, Bai Xiong can only be regarded as a newcomer.Out of hobbies, Bai Xiong joined "Time" after graduating from university and became an editor dealing with authors. It has been almost three years now.

To be honest, Ice Bear is also a little confused now. "Time" magazine is far from being as bright and beautiful as her appearance. The so-called distance creates beauty. Before becoming an editor, she naively thought that in the blue brick house located in the old streets and alleys of Haicheng, the financial center, the gathering It is a group of literary and artistic youths who love words and stories, and with a cup of tea, they can chat forever.

It was only after entering the "Time" magazine that all her fantasies were shattered, like a bubble that would burst with a poke.

The reversed cognition first comes from the word "youth".More than half of the people who worked with her in the editorial department all year round can be called middle-aged.The remaining half of the "young people" only look like this on the outside, but in fact they are all depressed, like little old men.

This is something that can’t be helped. After the enthusiasm is shattered, people are probably in this decadent state.

Perhaps the first "Time" was such a place full of enthusiasm and dreams, but with its success and the change of ownership of the magazine, everything began to change.The pursuit of commercial profits has become the purpose of the magazine, and the magazine is currently committed to implementing the strategy of making writers star.

Whether the article is better than others is secondary, as long as you are handsome and beautiful enough, then you can say anything.Hype it up, pack it up, and in this era of extremely active eyeball economy, a so-called rising literary star has gradually risen.

The author has become famous, the people behind it have also made money, and the fans have found their idols. Everyone is really happy.

In the years of "Time", Bai Xiong has fully experienced the power of time, and even the sharpest edges and corners will be smoothed. Those who really can't bear it will either change jobs, or leave the industry completely.

It is also very difficult to get promoted. If you don’t have a dream, you can talk about money, but even if you don’t have any money, you can still talk about wool, go home and farm.

The land at home has been sold a long time ago, so Bai Xiong is now hesitating whether to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors and change jobs, or go back to his hometown and get married. There is someone who has been waiting for her. To be honest, she still has feelings for that person. But because that person didn't want to come to Haicheng to develop, so they had to part ways.

"Mr. Gu Yu, the thing is like this. Your article "She and Her Cat" caused a lot of repercussions in the editorial department. It has been a long time since I saw such a fresh and refined novel, so everyone is very fond of Teacher Gu Yu. Attention. We have an unfeeling request here, which is actually an appointment for a manuscript, but the time is relatively urgent, and it must be before the 20th of next month. Teacher Gu Yu does not need to worry about the remuneration, as long as the quality of the novel is similar to last time, we will You can give a maximum of six hundred words per thousand words. And once this manuscript is approved, the editor-in-chief will send an invitation to Mr. Gu Yu for a long serialization."

Bai Xiong silently finished typing. She still hesitated before sending it. She always felt that her wording was a little stiff, but she really didn't know how to modify it.It is impossible for her to tell Gu Yu all about the real situation of the editorial department, so she can only cover up the truth with lies.

In fact, although "She and Her Cat" passed the review, it was supposed to be backlogged for publication in the next issue, and it was even more impossible to be featured on the magazine's Twitter page as a pure newcomer.It was Bai Xiong himself who really liked this work. She once felt that Dahl was like the person who silently waited for her in her hometown. After reading it, she immediately recommended it to Cheng Xin, the editor-in-chief in charge of the novel section.

Orange Heart also attaches great importance to "She and Her Cat", and immediately reported to the editor-in-chief that she hoped that "She and Her Cat" would be untweeted in this issue.The editor-in-chief would generally consider the opinion of the editor-in-chief carefully, but this happened here. Another editor-in-chief in charge of the youth chronicle section also promoted a so-called good seedling, and the two sides were at loggerheads over this.

Bai Xiong knew a little bit about the inside story, and that "good seedling" was actually relying on some relatives, coupled with his excellent external conditions, so the editor-in-chief was quite hesitant.In the end, it was Chengxin's repeated assurances that "She and Her Cat" was successfully posted on the Twitter, but this also annoyed the other editor-in-chief, who made some cruel remarks in a strange way, causing Chengxin and Bai Xiong to be very stressed now Big, I just hope that Gu Yu's next novel can reach a similar level, otherwise after the next internal meeting, Orange Heart and White Bear who "made mistakes" will definitely be punished.

"Teacher Gu Yu, I also know that it's my fault that caused you to get involved in such unnecessary troubles, but now I can only rely on you." Bai Xiong said silently in his heart, and finally pressed send.The manuscript fee of six hundred thousand words was what she tried her best to get from Cheng Xin, just to ease the guilt in her heart a little.

The person who can write a work like "She and Her Cat" must be the kind of big sister next door whose smile can warm people's hearts. Looking at the beautiful font, Bai Xiong confirms this more and more, and Teacher Gu Yu's real name is "" Su Ningxue", it sounds elegant.An author like Teacher Gu Yu should have a cup of tea and write quietly. I am really sorry for letting her get involved in this kind of right and wrong.

Ningxue and Ningyue sat in front of the computer and waited for a long time without receiving a reply. Just when they thought they had been let go, and were about to search the Internet for information about the "Thinking Literature Contest", the computer suddenly sent " Beep beep" sound.

"This guy is very annoying." Ningxue complained in a low voice, being interrupted is never such a happy thing.

However, Ningxue still clicked on the QQ message, and then saw the large paragraph of text sent by Bai Xiong, after a quick scan, Ningxue and Ningyue fell silent.

In the beginning, they wrote "She and Her Cat" only because of system tasks and Song Anran's request, but now it seems that they have gained a lot of happiness from it, especially seeing Song Anran, Cheng Yun and Lu Xiaoming up close. After Lu's reaction, my heart was full of warmth, maybe it was a good decision to continue writing.

There are many good works in their minds that do not exist in this world, and what they want to play is a fan of their favorite works to other people.What a joyful thing it would be to meet cultures from different worlds.

But they really don't have much free time recently, and the school will officially start in a few days. At that time, it will not be as easy as it is now. It is best to postpone it until after the National Day.

Thinking of this, Ningxue replied: "Editor Bai Xiong, can you postpone the time a little bit, I am busy in September, and I have to prepare the manuscript for the Ideas Literature Contest."

After receiving the reply, Bai Xiong was taken aback. The Thinking Literature Competition is a literature competition co-sponsored by "Time" magazine. She never thought that Teacher Gu Yu would want to participate in this competition. Just like what Teacher Gu Yu said, it would be impossible Can't be distracted to contribute to "Time".

What can I do, she can't persuade Teacher Gu Yu not to participate in the competition, this is a completely brain-dead idea.Just as the white bear was struggling, she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.

"Ah, the editor-in-chief of Chengxin!" The white bear who turned his head said in surprise, why did the editor-in-chief of Chengxin run over at this time.

"I'm just here to take a look. Have you contacted Gu Yu?" The editor-in-chief of Orange Heart is a woman in her 30s, wearing black-rimmed glasses and looking very serious.

"That's it." Bai Xiong understood, and then told Cheng Xin everything that happened just now.

After listening to Ice Bear's confession, Cheng Xin nodded. She lowered her head without saying a word, as if she was thinking about something. In this silent atmosphere, Ice Bear could only stare at the computer screen helplessly, but his thoughts flew away. Far.

"Participating in the Thinking Literature Contest is actually a very good breakthrough!" Cheng Xin said suddenly, frightened the white bear, and immediately turned his head. After adjusting his emotions, he looked at Cheng Xin puzzled.

Cheng Xin smiled, and continued: "The nephew of Editor-in-Chief Wu will also participate in this year's Thinking Literature Contest. You and I know his strength. Compared with Gu Yu, he is not at the same level. In this way, as long as Gu Yu In the Situ Literary Contest, the ranking was higher than that of editor-in-chief Wu’s nephew, and the others had nothing to say. Moreover, although our "Time" is one of the sponsors of the Situ Literary Contest, there is an alliance of seven schools, and those people There is no way to cheat at all, compared to a fair duel on "Time", the Idea Literature Contest is undoubtedly a fairer battlefield."

"That's right!" Ice Bear's eyes lit up.

"You tell Gu Yu the truth, it's not easy to hide this matter from her, and if you don't tell it clearly, she will probably have doubts." Cheng Xin said, "From my point of view, Gu Yu's writing is very sophisticated, faint Jianjian already has his own unique style, if he hones it well, he will definitely become a new star in the novel world."

Bai Xiong nodded, she knew that the new star that Orange Heart mentioned was not the kind of writer who was packaged, but a writer who really spoke by strength.

As for the truth, since Cheng Xin let her do this, she didn't have any worries.

……

"A relational account?"

After reading the long paragraph of text sent by Bai Xiong, Ningxue exchanged a glance with Ningyue, she never thought that there was such a story behind the publication of "She and Her Cat".

They were a little angry at first, but they calmed down quickly. In fact, Bai Xiong and Orange Heart were just doing their own duties, and it was out of good intentions. Who would have thought that a related account would suddenly pop up.

"Using the Ideas Literature Contest as the stage of the competition? According to Bai Xiong's description, that related household also belongs to the high school group, so it will be a direct confrontation, but they probably don't know that I am also in the high school group, hehe." Ningxue and Ningyue said at the same time Let out a laugh.

It should have been to participate in the competition calmly, to fight for the quota for admission without examination.It's just that a villain suddenly jumped out of the predetermined trajectory, which made Ningxue and Ningyue feel unexpectedly interesting.Then, villain, please bear the spear of literature from another world!
　Thanks to Xiaoyueyue for the reward of 3000 coins, thank you for the reward of 500 coins for the Lolita-controlling Sao Nian, and thank you for the reward of 100 coins for Li Xuezhishang.This is a large chapter of [-] words, because the graduation thesis needs to be prepared in order to revise the manuscript, so there is only one update today.
