Speaking of this person, in fact, Yang Yi also thinks that the worldly events are very wonderful. This person is a writer who published and contributed by Xiangyang Yi, but he belongs to the kind of person who is unknown in his previous life, so the editor directly receives his works. However, this person should have a similar fate to another time and space, but when he submitted the manuscript, he happened to meet a boy who went to the publishing department to take a routine walk and check out his novel from a bunch of submissions.
At that time, he didn't care much about his rebirth, because after he was reborn, he might not remember some famous historical events, but how many good works he produced in the literary circle every year, which ones were written by famous artists, would definitely make some achievements in the market, and what were the new works that belonged to new people but made a big splash. He had an impression in his heart. As a true and insidious literary lover, if he couldn't even do this, how could he control the foundation of Yangyi culture - Yangyi Publishing?
So when the boy saw this work, he didn't care much about it. He just turned a page or two casually, and didn't think he could find anything amazing.
But in fact, he guessed wrong this time. The rebirth is not omniscient and omnipotent. After reading the previous two pages of the works, his first reaction was to think of a best-selling work in his previous life, which was around 2,000. They were all works of the same title party nature. For many people with serious or older personality, this kind of work is simply a word game. Using a "Three Kingdoms" to deconstruct modern management is a bit unrelated. But after the emergence of "Three Kingdoms", some followers' works such as "The Red Mansions of Water" and "The Legend of Water" were also popular in the Chinese book market. Therefore, simply saying that this type of book is sometimes good and sometimes bad. Perhaps there is no standard that can satisfy everyone. However, what Yang Yi still remembers is that this work is the best-selling book of the year.
The manuscripts he saw were also showing off his in fact-not very much management experience. The "Boiled Three Kingdoms" in his previous life only used the theme of the "Three Kingdoms" type works. This manuscript directly picked up all the representative events of five thousand years, and finally produced a "Learning from History - On Management Studies that have existed in ancient China".
After seeing this manuscript, Yang Yi realized that in the world, there are not only celebrities who wear the same clothes, but also writers who "repeat the manuscript". If this book "Learning from History - On Management Studies in Ancient China" in his previous life could be discovered, then there would probably be nothing "Boiling the Three Kingdoms". After all, this type of book can easily cause readers to read fatigue. After reading a book, he would not be interested in other works of the same type. However, no matter how emotional it is, he has to feel sad. Since he accidentally encountered this "sacred book", boys naturally have to perform the duties of a publishing house owner. After turning two pages casually and confirming that the earliest story of this book was to use Bigan to interpret the thoughts he wanted to express, he simply called the editor and then stroked his pen. The book was renamed "Boiling the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties...", and finally it had an ellipsis.
At first, after hearing that his book title was changed by the publisher's owner, the author himself was very unhappy, but later the editor in charge of contacting him did not say anything bitterly. He just took out the manuscripts that Yang Yijing had handed over and the final market results after the manuscripts were published. This made the author completely talk about. After his work was published, it caused a shock in the market. Only then did this person completely convinced Yang Yi's book marketing ability - because before this work, he had actually published two similar works, but the market response was still mediocre. This person also submitted his manuscripts to Yang Yi for publishing. He tried it for the last time, but he didn't expect that he could become famous in one book.
The reason why this author was successful was not all due to his lack of talent. This time he encountered the right time and place. Instead, he looked back and thought about it carefully. What is the difference between the original title of the book "Learning from History - On Management Science in Ancient China" and the later "Boiling Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties..." by Yang Yiche, and why it can promote the sales of his works.
After careful consideration, he regarded Yang Yi as his "Bo Le", and he was also a Bo Le with the ability to add the finishing touch.
Everyone is so grateful to the boy in their hearts. Now that I see the boy appear, of course I have to come over and say hello enthusiastically.
When Yang saw that he couldn't hide, he had to get together with the writer to chat. However, this person was a strange guy in the literary circle. His speech was the same as when he was working in the production team in the 1960s and 1970s. Not only did he have a shocking volume, but he also had to help with gestures. It seemed that if he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to express his inner feelings well. It would be okay if it was a private party, but at such an annual meeting held by the Writers Association, there was always a loud voice beside him, and I'm afraid anyone would feel helpless.
So after seeing this person, boys have always been indifferent and some changes are inevitable.
Seeing this man leaning over to Yang Yi, some of the men who had talked to him before were interested, while others remained silent. One of them stretched out his face and asked the people around him with a smile: "Did you see, that's Yang Yi that Lao Zhao repeatedly recommended to us. You probably haven't seen him before?"
"Yang Yi?" One of the middle-aged men with a very gentle face narrowed their eyes. At a certain moment, it seemed that because of the angle, the eyes were completely opposite to his previous expression.
...
Compared with the group of people introduced to Yang Yi by Zhao Changtian, these men are indeed different from the feeling and their actual identities. Although the latter has joined the Writers Association and are all on the list of Chinese writers, they are among the registered writers of the Writers Association, and are more "idle clouds and wild cranes". In the entire literary circle, they may have some reputation and people will listen to what they say, but in terms of the real energy at hand, compared with the previous few, they are no longer on the same level.
Because the men in the previous group all worked in the Magic City Writers Association and spoke more importantly. A municipality writers association vice chairman, a secretary general, and two or three others also have their own professional titles, and they are definitely not people of Ahmao and Ahmago. These people are likely to have a certain influence outside the circle, let alone in the literary circle, especially one of them is a special guest from the capital, and they also hold positions in the China Writers Association. It may be a bit exaggerated to say that these people have the energy of officials, but in the literary circle, many writers and authors have to put aside their reserve and show their enthusiasm after seeing them.
Several people who worked in the Magic City Writers Association had a good impression of Yang Yi, because according to Zhao Changtian, the new concept composition competition was the first to find him, and they proposed this idea, and they also had a lot of support in terms of manpower and material resources. So in the end, they were able to run such a successful event and become a brand influence event. In addition, the other party's works also brought a lot of reputation to the Magic City Writers Association.
After all, now when it comes to "reading history with joy". If you are a person in the literary circle, you will say "Oh" and then suddenly realize that "Is it the writer of the Magic City/Yuezhou? I heard that they are very powerful/a very young" gossip. Anyway, Yang Yi is considered a writer from the Magic City.
But these people have no negative views on Yang Yi, and they will not show jealousy, exclusion and other mentality because of their age, grades, etc., but the writer from Beijing didn't think so. Of course, outsiders don't know the inner view of this person, because this Beijing-based author and the member of the presidium of the China Writers Association, has a smile on his face from beginning to end. The true view of his heart is unknown to outsiders, but after recognizing Yang Yi's appearance, this person was the one who narrowed his eyes.
This writers are also considered to be a prince in the field. After squinting their eyes, they quickly returned to normal. Then they smiled and asked someone around them: "It is said that this genius little writer has also opened a publishing house? On the one hand, he is the writer's identity, and on the other hand, he is the publishing house owner... Why do I think this situation is not in line with the association charter of our writers' association?"
The man next to him did not notice the change in the eyes of the man. He shook his head and smiled without hesitation: "What's wrong with the charter? In the regulations of the Writers Association members, it seems that the author himself is not allowed to participate in the affairs of the publishing unit, right? Oh, are you worried that someone will gossip? What's the matter? The publishing house is still affiliated and will never dare to use some despicable means to make itself famous..."
He didn't get the response he wanted, but the man didn't care. After nodding, he just followed the other party's intentions to avoid being too entangled with the problem.
...
After some social interaction, I finally waited for the opening of the annual meeting. Like many meetings in China, as long as it is a system, it always seems to be cumbersome. This time, the same is true. According to Yang Yi's idea, since everyone is a literary worker, it's just a few words to be said as a leader. Isn't it better to save some time and leave it for everyone to discuss freely? In the period before the meeting officially began, although Zhao Changtian also met many people, the boy felt that even if he temporarily transformed into a "social grass", it would be much better than wasting time listening to nonsense now.'
But even if these leaders of the Magic City Writers Association have shown their ability to write novels, they cannot say that they can be said all day long. So after several major leaders took turns to speak, they will come to some issues of annual summary. When it comes to annual summary, Yang, which accounts for six or seven out of the bestselling book market, cannot escape the fate of being created as a typical one when it was published.
This kind of praise has not brought many substantial benefits to Yangyi Culture, but it is always a recognition expression. Otherwise, it would have been absent from the "mainstream organization" of the Writers Association, which would have had a significant impact on Yangyi Culture, especially Yangyi Publishing's business. Based on this understanding, Yangyi still went up to thank his leaders and then thanked his colleagues, although he didn't know what help these people have helped him and Yangyi Culture.
When Yang Yi finished speaking on stage and another well-known domestic author followed the speech, even if the agenda of the morning meeting came to an end, waiting for these cultural people at noon was a buffet with a very high fashion value at present.
In the morning, the boy was taken by Zhao Changtian and introduced him to him. Someone next to him saw such a young author mingled in. Even if he was curious, he would not come over to say hello. After all, everyone has never lived a lifetime, what does it mean to chat with him? However, after the reborn man officially debuted in the morning, more people knew him, and there were many authors who took the opportunity of having a buffet at noon to talk to him.
So Yang Yi didn't even have time to taste what it tasted and just greeted people. But overall, he felt that although these cultural people were a little sour and devoid of the traditional Chinese literati, they were not very difficult to get in touch with. Everyone was still conservative and tacitly speaking. They were all topics in the literary circle, at most one or two, and by the way, they asked Yang Yi what the process was to receive the manuscript. In contrast, it was much easier than dealing with people in the shopping mall.
After seeing off a writer, someone came over with a dinner plate next to him, and as soon as he met, he had a smile on his face: "This is the first time that Mr. Yang has attended such a writer's party? How about it? I feel okay? Oh, by the way. I almost forgot to introduce myself, Chi Ji..."
"Teacher Chi Jiren, this time he came as a special guest, and he was also a member of the presidium of the China Writers Association. Right?" Yang Yi saw the visitor, although he had been in contact with more than a dozen people who had come to meet him in the past few days. He was so dazzled, but at this time he also smiled again and took the initiative to take the lead. This person was the person who appeared immediately after the chairman, secretary-general and others came to power. Even if the boy had no interest in the speeches of those leaders, he could still remember a face.
And whether the other party came to say hello on his own initiative or did he have other purposes, but no matter what, this person's attitude was very good, so Yang Yi did not make any gesture, and smiled and showed a humble attitude that was easier to speak: "Teacher Chi must not be called Mr. Yang, that's all the words that Mr. Zhao's friends joked. I am the junior here, and you are all teachers."
"Writing articles is the first priority. You are the best-selling books and writing traditional literature. If you don't call you Mr. Yang, then I'll call you Mr. Yang, right?" Chi Jiren also laughed and waved his hands repeatedly, which was exactly the same as the gentle attitude he had when he gave a speech on stage.
But Yang Yi naturally couldn't let the other party really call him his teacher. The first thing he didn't know is the person in front of him. If he was just a corpse-headed person who was often criticized in his previous life, then he would have forgotten it. But if the other party did make some achievements in the field of literature, then he could not really agree with it just by looking at the age gap between them.
After another wave of humility, the Chi Jicai finally agreed and called the boy "Xiaoyi", which also seemed more intimate and natural.
After reaching a consensus on each other's titles, the boy thought that this person, like his previous colleagues, would come to say hello and get to know each other, but Chi Jiren did not leave. Instead, he smiled and talked to him about the issue of Yangyi's publication: "Xiaoyi, then what's the editorial review system over there? I heard from Lao Zhao that he highly respects the system you implemented in your publishing house."
Yang Yi thought the other party might be trying to come to learn from the scriptures, so he explained some of the system settings in Yang Yi's publication to the other party one by one. After that, he thought that this person shouldn't have anything to do, right?
However, his prediction was wrong again. After listening to the boy's introduction, the person just laughed twice. Although he looked very appreciative, Yang Yi could tell at a glance that this guy was obviously perfunctory and unintentional. So he dealt with it "normal" and "absurdly".
Seeing that Yang Yi had no intention of taking the initiative to answer, Chi Jiren finally couldn't help it, so he smiled tentatively: "In other words, if you encounter a good work, you usually make the decision by yourself and don't have to edit the manuscripts. Only those manuscripts you don't like will be handed over to the editors published by Yang Yi?"
"It's not that I don't think of it. In fact, many works have the potential to become bestsellers, but I personally can't take more time, so I can only focus more on manuscripts with obvious potential." Yang Yi shook his head and slightly corrected the other party's statement.
"So that's the case. It seems that Xiaoyi, you are quite confident in your own vision, hahaha..." After saying a few unnutritious nonsense, the man's tone suddenly lowered: "Actually, I have some personal matters to talk about when I look for you now. I have a collection of poems, which is also my own hard work. I have accumulated over the years. When I just finished the manuscript at the end of the year, I originally wanted to get it to the Writers Publishing House. After all, they are all affiliated institutions of the Writers Association. Everyone is acquaintances and they don't have to go through the procedures, right? But today I happened to meet you, so I have been thinking about it just now, why don't you just give my work to you to operate, so that's a win-win situation for everyone..."
This is?
The rhythm of self-recommendation?
But why do you feel that some are forced to buy and sell?
