【Please recommend votes and collections ~~】
Everyone is drunk without getting drunk. The pineapple beer that can be called a drink-level pineapple beer made Chen Jiaxuan feel a little drunk. She can even drink several taels of white wine without changing her face, but now she is nestled on the sofa and doesn't want to get up and leave.
It would be great if it could be here, but does this fool really not know or not?
After Lin Han was busy cleaning the kitchen utensils, he saw Chen Jiaxuan with a slightly red cheek. He couldn't help but say, "Sister Xuan, you look a little tired, otherwise you can go back and take a shower and go to bed, and then have a good sleep."
The close-fitting sweater outlined her graceful figure. Chen Jiaxuan stood up from the sofa, shaking her bag and walking to the door with her high heels, "You go to bed early, don't stay up late to write novels or read novels. If I wake up in the middle of the night and find that your light is not turned off, turn off the switch outside."
The threat was not painful to Lin Han. He shrugged and said proudly: "The premise is that you can wake up, good night."
Standing at the door, looking at Chen Jiaxuan on the other side of the aisle, and following the corridor more than one meter wide, they opened the door. They looked at each other and smiled before slowly closing the door.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Han continued to return to the front of the computer to write a novel. This was originally an English version of the book, and the three major laws of robots cannot be limited to the domestic ones. If they can be spread to the international community, they can gain a greater impact.
The original English version has not been modified much, just need to change the background. The real difficulty lies in the Chinese version. Lin Han wants to add some of his thinking, not just to compare it with mechanized translation word by word. This practice naturally consumes brain cells.
...
At the same time, Tu Meilun, a young editor of "Science Fiction" is watching a book "Science Fiction World". She is the person in charge of recommendation who has contacted Chen Jiaxuan.
"Selected Novels" generally publishes novels of that year. It selects valuable and meaningful novels from one or two hundred literary journals. The average number of readings per person is about 150 novels, no less than 2 million words.
After reading so many books, these editors have to select 10 works from them for review, and finally the editor-in-chief and cross-review of the novels to be published in the next issue.
These selected works must reflect literary concepts and include literary judgments, but science fiction novels have never been recognized by mainstream literature. Not to mention traditional literary writers, even martial arts and fantasy literature are treated much better than science fiction.
If a science fiction novel can be published in "Novel Selection" in a year, it will be a shock to the science fiction literary world, because they have been eating duck eggs for a long time and have hardly been published in the previous few years.
Tu Meilun knew that this science fiction novel was easily prejudice, so he racked his brains to think about his recommendations. "The Selected Novels" takes cultivating new literary talents as his responsibility. There are only 7 newcomers in the past 56 novellas, and the proportion of newcomers is slightly lower. The author of this article is Lin Han, a newcomer in the novel industry."
The "Selected Novels" sponsored by the Chinese Writers Association has no doubt about its status in mainstream literature. The publication phrases and inscriptions are written by famous masters, and they have an extremely profound history.
For ordinary provincial and municipal writers, the platform for selecting journals is really important. Selecting journals can overlook the whole country, while ordinary authors can only appear in local newspapers or magazines.
If a writer's work is not reproduced, its radiation surface will be very small and its influence will not spread. Unless it is published in a major journal, not many people will read it after it is published, which is just like not published.
The circulation of a single literary journal is very limited, and it is not fair to the author to bury a work here if you pay a little bit of royalties.
For the author, he naturally hopes that the work can be reproduced more and let more readers see it. At the same time, the author also needs to expand the scope of communication and needs the income from reprinting.
Therefore, whether it is a well-known literary master or a talented rising star, it is very welcome to reprint their works in "Selected Novels".
Tu Meilun knew that science fiction literature and online literature are treated similarly now, and they are discriminated against by mainstream literature. It is not easy to stand out. This is a breeding ground for traditional mainstream literature.
The professional selection of "Fiction Selection" provides samples for literary research and discovers new works for the literary world. It is the most influential and authoritative literary selection in the country. It has been the trend of the literary world and condensed version by industry insiders. It even has a title called "National Novels".
It represents the highest achievement in contemporary Chinese novel creation, covers more than 80% of the award-winning articles of Contradictory Literature Award, and has won unanimous praise from both inside and outside the literary world.
"How can I write a recommendation opinion? It's so life-that's a waste." Tu Meilun deleted all the rows of words he had just typed, then curled his hair with one hand and turned the page aimlessly with the other hand. He drank two cups of coffee next to him and had to take it out as soon as possible.
...
The next day, Tu Meilun, who was too busy, was almost late for work. When she hurriedly rushed to the editorial office with breakfast, the whole morning meeting was over.
"Xiao Tu, what's going on with you? How many times is this month late? Also, have you prepared the ten novels you selected? Please hand over the list quickly and I'll review it as soon as possible."
In a panic, Tu Meilun took out the printed list from her bag. She said, "Boss, I'll do this all night, otherwise I wouldn't be late and almost died suddenly."
Cheng Litao looked at his old friend's daughter. He had seen the girl who had grown up since childhood and couldn't bear to scold her, so he could only take the advice from here, and then said angrily: "Okay, okay, go to work quickly and take the time to sleep at noon, so as not to say that I don't care for you."
"He's talking nonsense, the boss is the best!"
Tu Meilun blinked, quickly returned to her desk, and then ate breakfast secretly like a little hamster, waiting for the final review result.
Cheng Litao, who returned to the editor-in-chief's office, was not picky about anything, and picked up the book list placed on Tu Meilun's top and read it.
"A Game of Chess in the Military" describes the complex life and human nature of the military camp. This idea is pretty good. If you have good narrative skills, you can keep it."
"Tell the story of the father and the son. The abandoned children look for their fathers and have the meaning of patience to find their thoughts. You can take a look at "Volcano"."
"Dear Vox Spirit"? What kind of novel is this? I want to learn Stories from a Chinese Studio but haven't learned it well. How can this thing be included in our novel selection?"
"The name of "Rural Teacher" is good, but why is it a science fiction article?" Cheng Litao talked to himself while crossing out the name with a pen. "Although young people are energetic, they still need to hone and settle. Any type of novel is recommended above. This is not enough. What can science fiction articles mean? Fight and kill, and discuss the meaning that no one understands. It is better to develop for another two years."
