After finishing speaking, Chen Qingluo stared at Wang Zixu and said: "Literature that no one appreciates is sad. Only when people like to read it can literature have vitality."

Wang Zixu sat deeper in the chair: "Now, shall I call Editor Hao again and ask? How about a showdown with him?"

Chen Qingluo took out her mobile phone: "Let me ask."

Ning Chunyan was a little worried: "Can you get involved?"

"It's okay. I'll ask. I have experience in dealing with them."

Chen Qingluo had Bian Hao's phone number. After dialing the number, the other party answered quickly.

"Hello, um, it's me, hello, hello... I heard that your son is celebrating his birthday, so I called to say hello. What? Your son's birthday half a year ago? What? The child you gave birth to is not a son but a daughter? Oh, it seems

I made a mistake...Ah, it's okay, okay. Request a manuscript? I don't have a manuscript on hand yet..."

Wang Zixu and Ning Chunyan listened silently. When they heard this, they both covered their faces at the same time.

Just when they thought Chen Qingluo was about to fail, she suddenly changed the subject:

"By the way, I want to ask about an acquaintance of mine. I heard that he recently submitted a manuscript to you. Hey, I want to know how his manuscript went?"

Having said this, Chen Qingluo quietly put down her phone and turned on the speakerphone. Bian Hao's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Who is your friend?"

Chen Qingluo said: "Hey, it's not a friend, it's just someone I've met. I heard that his manuscripts are highly praised in small circles, but I can't see them, so I just wanted to ask you."

Editor Hao's voice was a little wary: "We have a lot of manuscripts recently, what are they called?"

"Wang Zixu."

"Oh, him." Bianhao said in a surprised voice on the other end of the phone, "So you still know him? Isn't he an author who has just started? Is he worthy of your concern?"

Chen Qingluo said: "This has nothing to do with qualifications. His manuscript was indeed praised by many people I knew. So I became a little curious."

Editor Hao said: "We are still reviewing that manuscript."

Chen Qingluo asked: "Is it still under review? I heard that Teacher Shi Tonghe recommended it? Why did the review take so long?"

Editor Hao said: "Who told you that Teacher Shi Tonghe recommended it?"

Chen Qingluo looked at each other and said, "He said it himself."

Editor Hao sighed: "Things are more complicated. This manuscript was indeed recommended by Teacher Shi Tonghe, but after I got the manuscript in my hand, he said again that this manuscript must be reviewed strictly and not based on his personal feelings.

The more detailed it is, the better. So it’s not easy to publish the manuscript yet.”

Chen Qingluo frowned very tightly: "Should we still review it? That manuscript needs to be published before the end of Fei Shi. If you can pass it, you should give me an accurate answer, otherwise it will delay things too much."

Editor Hao's voice became suspicious: "Teacher Chen, it's not the prince who asked you to inquire about it, right?"

Chen Qingluo sat up straight: "Editor Hao, I think you should communicate more with the author. If you need to change something, ask him to change it quickly. If it is delayed for a long time, it will affect the rhythm of others."

Bian Hao's voice became cold and hard: "Teacher Chen, I don't know if the prince asked you to ask, but whether it is him or you, I have to say that we have our own work process."

Chen Qingluo said: "But your work process is also to better help authors write better works!"

Editor Hao simply said: "Teacher Chen, if this is the case, then we can only reject the manuscript."

Wang Zixu and Ning Chunyan stared at her nervously.

Chen Qingluo pondered for a moment and then said: "Editor Hao, if you want to reject the manuscript, you need to give a reasonable reason, right?"

Editor Hao said: "Many people in our editorial department have read this manuscript by Wang Zixu and are reading it. It is very long and many people have not finished reading it. Let me tell you our feedback.

"Our feedback is that this manuscript did not conquer all of us and caused a lot of controversy. Some people said it was good, while others disagreed."

The prince was modest and his hair was tight.

Chen Qingluo looked very unconvinced: "What about your own judgment?"

"My judgment is that it has not yet reached the standard for long-form publication," Editor Hao said. "It would be very difficult to get it published."

Chen Qingluo was anxious: "Can you read?"
