62. Alumni all over the world (please vote for me)
Yu Qi explained the whole thing from beginning to end, and then threw the question to Gu Cheng, waiting for his answer.
"prose?"
Gu Cheng thought for a while and immediately realized that this was a great opportunity. It happened that he no longer planned to publish books this year. In order to maintain his popularity, it would be a good publicity to publish some essays in literary newspapers and periodicals.
channel.
Maybe some people will spontaneously search for his works after reading his prose, further stimulating sales.
The most important thing is that although Gu Cheng can be regarded as a cutting-edge writer, the genre he writes is at the lower level of the contempt chain of the entire writer group, and he cannot integrate into the circle of mainstream writers who write serious literature.
By writing prose, you can let everyone know about your own level, gain recognition from more writers, and maybe even win some awards and other honors in the end. Although short articles do not bring many benefits, they
Can I get it back from somewhere else?
More importantly, I have a wealth of short articles in my mind, and various Chinese texts from childhood to adulthood are not so easy to forget. After working, I have also developed a good reading habit, and there are all kinds of excellent articles in my mind.
It's such a pity that a small number of them were wasted like this.
So he immediately gave Yu Qi a positive answer.
"No problem, I can do it. Give me the other party's email address and I will contact you later to see how the manuscript will be delivered and how it will be delivered."
Gu Cheng said this, and the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention the issue of manuscript fees. After all, the salary in literary newspapers is not high. Besides, being able to be in this newspaper does not mean that little three melons and two dates are valued by everyone.
remuneration.
Gains in honor are the most important.
"In this way, after you have published some manuscripts, our publishing house can help you publish a collection of essays. This is a good way to attract fame and fortune."
Yu Qi replied happily that this kind of business is basically a guaranteed profit. On the one hand, it has gained fame through the channels of literary newspapers. Their publishing house can save a lot of publicity expenses when publishing essay collections. It is completely done in one fell swoop.
get more.
"Then it's settled. I'll contact the other party first, and then I'll discuss the details with you in detail after the specific matters have settled down."
Gu Cheng was of course absolutely committed to this arrangement, and the two of them hung up the phone with smiles.
Soon, the email was forwarded by Yu Qi through his personal account. It contained the contact information of the other party and the phone number of the person in charge.
He dialed the number above and was quickly connected.
"Dududu~ Hello, this is the Chinese Literature Journal. I am the editor Sun Yongchang. How can I help?"
A magnetic voice came over the phone, and it could be felt that the other person was not very old. At least compared to Gu Cheng, he looked more like a newbie who had just left school.
Gu Cheng organized the words in his mind and answered in a gentle tone,
"Hello, this is Gu Cheng. I just received your email, so I called to inquire about the column."
Literary newspapers are large-scale national newspapers, and the editors who can work here are among the best in the country. This is also a place where many Chinese college students dream of working after graduation.
Back then, Gu Cheng's predecessor naturally submitted his resume immediately, but due to some unknown reasons, he was unfortunately rejected. This incident has always been deep in his memory, making him feel extremely regretful.
After hearing Gu Cheng's name on the phone, he repeated a few sentences over and over to reference the memory in his mind. Soon, his voice became surprised, and his enthusiasm became even more intense.
"Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng, oh, I remembered, senior, I am your junior student for the next two years, and I am also a student of the Chinese Department of Huaguo University. I just graduated two years ago. Your "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" is really great.
Excellent, it's an honor to receive your call."
As soon as he heard that it was his junior, Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows instantly, and his tense body began to relax. If there is anything that Gu Cheng is extremely grateful for so far, it is the Hua Hua University where his predecessor worked hard to pass the exam.
National University.
As the most well-known university in the literary world, outstanding graduates from this school can be found all over China. You can find your seniors and students almost everywhere, and the world attaches great importance to the alumni circle. If you meet a student from your own school,
Brothers, everyone will try their best to help and give back to the school for the help it has given them.
When most people enter the workplace, they grow up under the care of their seniors. When they develop, they will also give back to their juniors and automatically take over the responsibility of taking care of their alumni. This practice has become
A good cycle.
Almost the Chinese literary world and the faction of Gu Cheng's alma mater were occupied. Many people in important positions graduated from the same school, and they immediately became a backbone force in the workplace.
As a beneficiary of this kind of clique, Gu Cheng would not speak out to condemn him. If he entered the circle of writers himself, he would be able to avoid many detours with everyone's help.
"Hello, hello, since we are all alumni, it is very simple to communicate. Which teacher is my junior student?"
Gu Cheng continued to ask.
Although Huaguo University is a collective, there are also competitions within it. It is divided into several factions. One faction is the Dean's Department, which is also Gu Cheng's faction. Their teachers and professors have become the Dean of the Chinese Department, and they naturally occupy
with the greatest resources.
After that, there are other professors. There are three forces, one is the director's faction, and the other is the faction assembled by the professors.
Society is a human society, and even professors, as colleagues, are somewhat distant from each other. Under such circumstances, the students below naturally began to take the initiative to take sides.
"My supervisor is Professor Chu Tianhua."
Opposite him, Sun Yongchang opened his mouth to answer, his enthusiasm unchanged.
When Gu Cheng heard this name, he immediately understood that this professor also taught Gu Cheng's professional courses in school. Although he did not directly study with this professor, this kind of incense cannot be forgotten. In addition, this Chu Tianhua
The professor himself is an ally of the dean's faction, so the relationship is naturally much closer.
"That's easy to handle. Junior brother, just say it bluntly. What are the conditions given by the newspapers? I'll think about it here."
