The public's impression of the "author" has been subconsciously shaped over the years.
The works written by authors with poor character will not be good either!
As for what the author, or the character of the literati, should be like, handed down works such as "The Theory of Love and Lotus" and "Inscription on the Humble Room" are deeply rooted in people's hearts and have already given the answer.
A greasy middle-aged man like Song Foxiang still has some scholarly integrity, so his other shortcomings can be ignored, which does not prevent Chief Editor Song from being invincible in the love scene at all.
"Fish against the current" can use any reason to delay manuscripts, but they use this to blackmail the magazine into increasing manuscript fees. How can readers accept this?
——What kind of author is an author who is full of copper odor?
Now is not the time when self-media has flourished everywhere. Traditional media governs the direction of public opinion. Print media has extremely high credibility in the minds of readers. Not to mention youth literature magazines like "Egg", even some gossip magazines have many followers. For paparazzi's sake,
Sales have compiled various fake news. A HK king is "passed away" every year, forcing the king to hold a press conference to clarify and prove to fans that he is still alive.
Only a king can hold a press conference to clarify. How can a small author like "Fish Against the Current" use any means to clarify?
Han Qin's move not only disgusted Wen Ying and Zou Weijun, she also wanted to abolish the pen name "Fish Against the Current" and even cast a shadow on the unpublished "Youth Idol".
"Egger" will no longer cooperate with "Fish Against the Current". If other similar magazines receive submissions under this pen name, I am afraid they will have to consider whether they will follow in the footsteps of "Egger".
Changing a pen name is one way.
But what about Teen Idol?
The first 180,000 words of this book have already been serialized in a magazine. It is already public content. Even if the book is published under a different title, it will still be recognized by readers!
Zou Weijun doesn't think this is the idea of the editorial department of "Egger". A magazine with a good circulation is not so small-minded, right?
But if Han Qin is sowing discord in the middle, it is normal for the magazine to be dissatisfied with Wen Ying.
Zou Weijun had been paying attention to the trends of "Eige", so he discovered this matter immediately. At this time, Wen Ying was still writing in retreat and didn't care about the outside world.
Although Zou Weijun stipulated that the manuscript would not be due until the 15th, Wen Ying thought that if she finished it earlier, she could revise it a few more times. Although the general plot of the story would not change, the details would become more perfect as they were revised.
Zou Weijun knew that Wen Ying was writing in retreat, and after discovering the termination statement of "Eige", she did not contact Wen Ying immediately, but tried to contact the magazine again - just like her previous calls, either no one answered, or
After she reported herself to her home, she was hung up on!
Zou Weijun made a prompt decision and went to the department leader.
The leader looked at the termination statement in the magazine and his eyebrows knitted together: "Xiao Zou, is there some misunderstanding?"
We are all colleagues, and it is normal for peers to try to gain leverage. The author will sign a contract with whoever offers the best conditions to the author. This is also the rule in the industry.
If you can't offer a high price, you should at least play the emotional card with the author.
If both are not done well, how can you blame the author for signing a contract with someone else?
The author is also a human being, and he has normal emotions and desires.
The leader is very satisfied with Zou Weijun's ability to snatch "Teenage Idol" from "Eige" - since Xiao Zou is motivated, let's release it to the outside world. If Xiao Zou is not given a channel to vent, Xiao Zou will
To start a war against one's own people.
In normal competition, there must be winners and losers. Zou Weijun won this time, but the magazine lost... But if the magazine is so lackadaisical, the publishing department leaders will be unhappy.
"Teen Idol" has already been signed, and the publishing department is still counting on it to be a big hit on the market. The leaders don't dare to think that it will sell 1 million copies, but selling more than 100,000 copies can be considered an achievement of the department this year!
This statement of "Eige" not only wants to discredit the author of "Fish Against the Current", but also wants to make the "Young Idol" project pornographic!
When Zou Weijun explained the cause and effect, the leader's brows furrowed even more tightly, as tight as a fly could be pinched.
"Then we can't let them have the final say!"
Zou Weijun felt relieved. She was most afraid that her boss would give up the publication of "Teen Idol" because of trouble. After all, everything was just preliminary planning now. Although the contract was signed and Wen Ying had not been paid, the publishing department would not give up.
There is too much loss.
"You're right! We can't let them have the final say on this matter. "Teenage Idol" is the project we will focus on planning next. Once they make such a statement, I'm afraid this book will be rejected by readers before it is released.
Rejected!"
It's not like "Egg" is the only one who can make a statement.
Behind "Eige" is Lu Province Publishing Group, which, like Rongcheng Publishing Group, is a local media giant.
What Zou Weijun meant was that the publishing department had to provide Wen Ying with a platform to speak out, and not let the other party take whatever he said.
"In addition, I also want to sue "Egg" on behalf of the author and sue them for libel!"
The leader nodded with a serious look on his face, "It's time to sue, it's time to sue, let them shed a layer of skin!"
——What I just said, I have to give Xiao Zou a channel to vent. It is better for Xiao Zou to fight against outsiders than to start a war internally.
Xiao Zou is the one who reports sexual harassment to his colleagues when they disagree with each other. Isn't it just to make Xiao Zou roll up his sleeves and fight if "Eige" wants to discredit the author Xiao Zou signed?
After getting a satisfactory answer, Zou Weijun grabbed the magazine and left the leadership office.
Since she reported Song Foxiang and Editor Wan last time, her work in the publishing department seems to be getting smoother and smoother.
I have never found a leader so easy to talk to before.
Zou Weijun's high heels clicked, and Mediterranean Editor Wan came forward with his tail between his legs and licking his face: "Xiao Zou, are you in trouble? Let's work together, I can help!"
Looking at Editor Wan's shiny Mediterranean Sea, Zou Weijun looked wary.
Editor Wan swore that he had no bad intentions: "I just want to make up for my rashness last time. Really, I don't dare to have bad intentions."
Editor Wan already knew Zou Weijun's background from Song Foxiang.
Editor-in-chief Song did not want to thank him, but Editor Wan did not have the confidence of Editor-in-Chief Song.
Editor Wan has always wanted to do something to make up for his previous reckless behavior. "Eige" sent a pillow to Editor Wan who was dozing off.
"Xiao Zou, I am older than you and have more experience in the industry than you. Of course, I don't want to pretend to be a senior in front of you. I just want to say what a great opportunity this is. The book "Hush, Little Secret" you planned and published is
Why is it so popular? Now "Teen Idol" should also follow the same process and follow the same process? Let me tell you, you should thank "Eige" for going crazy. We want to sing but can't find each other, "Eige"
The stage has been set up!"
Not only did he set up the stage, but he also acted as a clown. "Eige" sacrificed too much and knew how to contribute to Xiao Zou's career.
