While enjoying her morning tea, Yan Yao browsed various author posts and forums, looking for cute new authors who were unfamiliar with the world.

Until the magazine gets rid of the heavy haze of the dark history, only a few authors can receive manuscripts, and they can only hope to find new ones that are barely readable.

Of course, there's also...

Editor-in-Chief of Dove of Peace·Yao Yao: "Teacher Guan Ai, do you have any plans for a new work?" 』

Roasted sweet potato skin is delicious, but I prefer fried sweet potato skin: "A little bit, but not much." 』

Editor-in-Chief of Peace Dove·Yao Yao: "That's great, please contribute the article!" 』

Editor-in-Chief of Dove of Peace·Yao Yao: "If you don't mind, you can come to our magazine and we will pay for the food, accommodation and travel expenses."Our agency has a dedicated room for writers to write manuscripts. Your daily life will also be taken care of by dedicated personnel, making it very comfortable. 』

This is a lie.

There is no writing room for writers at the magazine, only a messy warehouse and a small president's office.

But if Tang Ping could be deceived and locked up to work on the manuscript, it wouldn't be a problem to give him the president's office.

His writing skills are already at the highest level among the writers that the Dove of Peace magazine can hire. At this critical moment of life and death for the magazine, he must not be let go!

On the way back by bus, Tang Ping shook his hands and became excited when he saw editor Yaoyao's proposal.

Here it comes, the hint of unspoken rules!

As expected of a club with hidden rules, it has only been less than a week and I can no longer control my nature.

Have you ever deceived other authors like this before?

When people arrive at the magazine, they will be locked up like this, like this, like this...?

Tang Ping's mind fluctuated like a tide, and he thought of many situations.

In the end, with strong willpower, he declined with difficulty.

Roasted sweet potato skin is delicious, but I prefer fried sweet potato skin: "Thank you Editor-in-Chief Yaoyao for your kindness, but I really can't get away. I'll give it a try when I have time." 』

Yan Yao was slightly disappointed when she saw the reply, but she also understood.

As a freshman, classes still take a lot of time.

For him, writing is obviously just a part-time job out of interest.

She didn't force it and replied "Okay then", thinking that the summer vacation would be in more than two months, and she could invite Tang Ping to participate in the magazine's summer trip.

Then take advantage of the shutdown to severely squeeze your creativity.

But then again...

Yan Yao's eyes lingered on Tang Ping's username for a few seconds.

In the past week, every time I chat with Tang Ping and maintain basic social relations, I will find that the author has changed his user name.

The first time it was "I am a happy superman and when I am happy I am a superman", the second time it was "I am a superman and the stronger the superman is, the stronger he gets"... This time it became "The roasted sweet potato skin is delicious but I prefer fried sweet potato skin." ".

Every name looks weird, and it always feels like it not only means the literal meaning, but also expresses something in a subtle way.

Good authors often have certain quirks.

Outsiders often cannot understand this quirk, but editors often need to choose to be tolerant.

Understand, respect, and bless.

On the other side, Tang Ping called up his AI. No need, just take a look.

He hasn't used AI to generate stories for a long time, and has devoted all his computing power to improving itself.

He had already thought about what to ask AI to copy in the second story——

Just copy "Cinderella"!

But when he tried to copy a paragraph, the AI's understanding of "Cinderella" at the beginning made him black-eyed:

"Cinderella, a poor girl who grew up in a remarried family and was disliked by her stepmother and her two daughters. 』

"The stepmother is worried about the lifelong events of her two biological daughters. The eldest daughter is studying art and the second daughter is studying finance. Both daughters have bright futures. 』

"Cinderella?" 』

“Study civil engineering and dust. 』

"She is called "Cinderella" because she is dusty all day long and looks gray all day long. 』

"During the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, the eldest daughter and the second daughter went sightseeing, visiting internet celebrity attractions and checking in on meals. 』

"Cinderella is dusting. 』

"When they went to college at the end of the summer, the eldest daughter and the second daughter attended high-class parties every day and got to know all the young talents. 』

"Cinderella is still dusting. 』

"When looking for a job, the eldest daughter and the second daughter found a relationship and entered a leisurely job with air conditioning and coffee. 』

"Cinderella is still dusting. 』

"Day after day, year after year of dusting has made Cinderella thin and black. 』

"..."

Look, do you think this sounds ridiculous? !

God called her Cinderella because of the dust on the construction site!

Although "The Emperor's New Clothes" was praised by Chinese teachers, "The Overbearing Emperor Falls in Love with Me" forced by AI was also loved by many female classmates.

But if possible, Tang Ping still hopes that AI's understanding of classic masterpieces can be more normal.

Because in this way, the number of times his eyes will turn black will be less.

For this reason, considering that AI writing is amazingly fast anyway, there is absolutely no need to rush into low-quality assembly line production.

Tang Ping finally decided to maintain quality and quantity, work carefully, and wait until the AI ​​gets enough computing power to optimize the algorithm and improve its level before writing "Cinderella".

after all……

He doesn't remember many classic works.

……

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday…

The days passed steadily.

The popularity of "The Emperor's New Clothes" has yet to pass.

On the contrary, it is intensifying in every corner of reality and the Internet.

[Sisters recommend an article that makes me cry. The love between the emperor and the heroine really made me cry! TAT...]

[My daughter listened to it for one night and it was not enough. She pestered me to talk about it every night. She giggled when she heard the part about knitting new clothes. She didn’t get tired of it at all! 】

[You may not believe it, but I was taking a literary appreciation class in college. The teacher pulled out this story and praised it for a long time, saying that she even opened the box - no - she investigated the author's life and found out that he was an 18-year-old handsome boy!What a genius...]

[It’s fake, can you write such a powerful story at the age of 18?And how could a man write so well about his emotions? He must be a ghostwriter! 】

[This fairy tale is really amazing. Children like it, girls also like it, and even literary and artistic youths like it. It should be fun, interesting, deep, and connotative...]

[Is there any director who can make this into a movie or TV series? I really want to see it. Please, please! 】

[His grandma's, I don't care about anything else. I just want to know where can I buy the 66th issue of "The Dove of Peace" you are talking about? 】

【…】

At the same time, letters of enthusiastic feedback from readers were sent to the Dove of Peace magazine from all over the province.

Chapter 11 What do you like

"The emperor's new clothes, the emperor's new clothes, the emperor's new clothes..."

The bald colleague opened each feedback questionnaire and smiled from ear to ear.

This job was not under his control, but when he saw more and more letters from readers day by day, he felt a sense of joy about a good harvest.

Almost every one of these feedback messages praised "The Emperor's New Clothes" and said that it was really good and hoped that other stories in the future would be of this level.

Others said, "If you had only done this earlier, I almost stopped reading your magazine"...

This all means that he is one step further away from unemployment.

"Sister Yan Yao, have you received Teacher Guan Ai's new manuscript?" a bald colleague asked Yan Yao.

Yan Yao held a cup of coffee in her hand, the rim of the cup was pressed against her lower lip, but she did not drink it.

She stared at the computer screen blankly, as if her mind was immersed in something.

The faint purple-black color on her eyelids told the fact that she didn't sleep well last night.

Hearing the question from her bald colleague, Yan Yao suddenly woke up from her daze, put down her coffee and rubbed the corners of her eyes, and replied slightly tiredly:

"No, he's still close."

"You have to push him more. Many readers buy the magazine just for "The Emperor's New Clothes". If he can write another article, or even two articles, then issues 67 and 68 will be guaranteed Got it!" said the bald colleague excitedly.

"Yes, I know." Yan Yao nodded lightly.

Of course she knew that after reading the manuscript of "The Emperor's New Clothes" at that time, she had already expected the sales rebound of the 66th issue.

Because of this, she boldly increased the printing volume and decisively printed a thousand copies within one day of release. She was extremely confident in this story.

But even so, she never expected that the sales volume driven by "The Emperor's New Clothes" would be so amazing——

In just four days of release, issue 66 has already sold as much as the previous three issues combined!

And the trend is still stable. In the foreseeable next few days, sales are still expected to rise steadily, reaching sales close to the heyday before the outbreak of black history.

At that time, the beautiful girl fairy tale writer was still providing steady contributions, and the Dove of Peace magazine still had 1.5 pillars.

The aroma of coffee floated up, and Yan Yao came back to her senses from the distant memories.

Her eyes focused on the computer screen, staring at a chat box.

At the top of the box, the 18-year-old author, who is full of wild imagination but bloated writing, has a new online name.

[The secret to delicious hand-brewed coffee is to brew it by hand]

In the input box below, a greeting has been written, but it has not been sent yet.

Yan Yao moved her fingers to the keyboard, hesitated for a few seconds, moved her ring finger to the backspace key, and long pressed to delete the entire paragraph.

It is certainly the editor's responsibility to urge manuscripts.

However, direct reminders for manuscripts every now and then will put great psychological pressure on the author, which may lead to boredom and rebellious psychology, deliberately procrastinate, and refuse to submit the manuscript.

Even the author couldn't stand it anymore and turned to another place, looking for a place that didn't push for manuscripts so harshly... This kind of thing has happened before.

How to promote manuscripts well, APU authors, is a knowledge of editing.

"Alas." Yan Yao sighed.

The bald colleague looked up: "What's wrong, Sister Yan Yao?"

"I can't find a good reason to push the manuscript."

"Reason?" The bald colleague thought for a while, "The ReadyGo Festival is coming soon on March 3st, does it count?"

"ReadyGo Festival?" Yan Yao wondered.

"Yes, ReadyGo Festival." The bald colleague nodded.

At 3:21 on March 0, major e-commerce companies will open their lowest discounts of the year on time, and the platforms will also provide high subsidies. This is often the best time to buy things.

Because the date looks like a countdown, it is named "ReadyGo", which means "ready to buy".

but……

"This is an e-commerce festival, right? What does it have to do with urging manuscripts?" Yan Yao tilted her head slightly.

"It's very simple. If he wants to buy something, shouldn't he work harder to earn money?"

The bald colleague explained:

"For example, new mobile phones, new graphics cards, new monitors... 18-year-old boys generally like these."

Yan Yao thought for two seconds, this is the reason.

But the question still lies in how to use this as a reason to urge the manuscript.
