Chapter 674: Published
After putting the manuscript in his hand on the table, Govan took a deep breath. From this novel, he felt the unique atmosphere from the Loess Plateau. Govan subconsciously flipped to the envelope. He guessed that it must be The address of the envelope submitted by the long-established writer seems to confirm his guess——Jia Bing, editorial department of "Huangyuan Literature and Art".
Seeing the name, Ge Wen laughed. Jia Bing is a well-known poet in Huang Yuan and the editor-in-chief of "Huang Yuan Literature and Art". He has published some famous poems. When will he be able to write such a level novel? It seems that editor-in-chief Jia has made a lot of progress during this period, and Gowen secretly admires it.
But after another glance, he was confused by the words on the back of the envelope. After Jia Bing's name, there were four words "Zan Sun Shaoping". I was a little surprised when I saw that it was not Jia Bing himself who contributed, but it was not too surprising.
Is that right? I said when did Editor-in-Chief Jia start writing novels. It turned out that he was contributing to others, but the name Sun Shaoping felt very strange to Ge Wen. I have searched all the names of the authors of Huang Yuan, but I have not been able to find any memory about Sun Shaoping.
Ge Wen stretched his neck and asked the old editor on the opposite side, "Brother Zhang, do you remember an author named Sun Shaoping in Huangyuan? Oh, or from Shaanxi Province." It is also possible that authors from other places in Shaanxi went to Huangyuan to collect wind. , and then wrote this novel submission, and asked Jia Bing to help reply the letter.
Many authors go out to collect stories and their whereabouts are uncertain. They live in this village one week and go to other places the next week. It is not convenient to leave their addresses. It is also common for local colleagues to help collect letters.
"Sun Shaoping? No impression? Why do you suddenly ask this?" Zhang Jianguo, the old editor, thought for a while and said, he had never heard of this name.
Ge Wen handed over the manuscript, "Brother Zhang, the submission I just received is quite high-level. I thought it was a new work by that old writer. How about you take a look?" He is only qualified for the first review, Zhang Jianguo However, the manuscript can be directly handed over to the editor-in-chief Ba Jin. If he can pass this test, as long as Ba Jin does not object, the novel will basically be published.
Govan's behavior is a bit out of order. Generally speaking, after reading a batch of submissions, he will hand over all the approved manuscripts to him for review. However, occasionally encountering very outstanding manuscripts, it is not impossible to make an exception. Zhang Jianguo took over After reading the manuscript carefully, I was fascinated by it.
It took a long time before I raised my head, "Little Ge, you have made great progress during this time. This novel is indeed a rare masterpiece. The people in northern Shaanxi who lived under the nourishment of the Yellow River and the yellow land have lived in the small town for generations. Farmers in mountain villages, with their folk songs, waist drums, window grilles, embroidery, and countless legends, tell the story of national ups and downs, honors and disgraces, and give people a poetic mix of pain and happiness. The description and reflection of this culture in this novel are indeed worthy of our deep thinking."
"Then, Brother Zhang, can this novel be published?" Sometimes the editor and the author have the same ideas. The author has a good story to share with the readers, while the editor selects the real good story from the sand. Good articles are shown to readers, and seeing an article selected by oneself is published, the sense of accomplishment is no less than that of the creators of these articles.

"From my point of view, it's definitely not a problem, but the editor-in-chief has the final say on whether it can be published." Zhang Jianguo put the manuscript in the folder on the right, which is where he stores the manuscripts that have passed the review.
"You see that you have collected so much, why don't you show it to the editor-in-chief first?" Govan couldn't wait that long,
He can't wait to get the news of the passage immediately.
"According to the regulations, we have to submit the manuscript to the editor-in-chief tomorrow. Don't worry, good articles will never be buried." Zhang Jianguo comforted.
Govan scratched his head and struggled until the next day. As soon as he got to work, he started urging Zhang Jianguo to submit for review. He had just taken over the manuscript review work, and he hadn't been able to select an article for publication yet.
Zhang Jianguo also came from this stage. He understood Govan's thoughts very well, and besides, the "Yellow Earth" was really good, so he smiled and walked into Ba Jin's office with the manuscript.
As soon as he came out, Gowen hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhang, how is it? What did the editor-in-chief say about this novel?"
"You, I'm too anxious. The editor-in-chief is so old and reads the manuscript carefully. How can there be results so quickly?" Zhang Jianguo said. Ba Jin is already seventy-six years old this year, and naturally he can't have the same energy as young people like them. people compared.
"What? You still don't believe the editor-in-chief's vision? What a good article, can the editor-in-chief read it wrong?" Seeing that Gowen seemed to want to say something, Zhang Jianguo pretended to blame.
"Hehe, am I excited?" Govan scratched his head, sat down embarrassedly, suppressed the irritability in his heart and continued to review the manuscript.
In the afternoon, the door of the editor-in-chief opened, and Zhang Jianguo and Govan were greeted to go in. Govan's heart was suddenly suspended. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
"Little Ge, how are you? Can you adapt to the new job?" Ba Jin asked with concern. He was very optimistic about this young man, Ge Wen.
"Yes, I have Brother Zhang and so many people to help me. I am studying hard." In front of the only remaining master in the country, Gowen did not dare to speak loudly. This was not because of fear, but because of respect for the old man.
"It can be seen that you have studied hard and quickly." The old man picked up the top manuscript, "You can find such high-quality works so quickly, which shows that you are very suitable for this job."
"Editor-in-Chief, do you mean this manuscript is over?" Govan's heart suddenly hung up.
"Although the writing is a little immature, the overall structure and narrative method of the article are excellent, especially the description of the folk customs of the Loess Plateau, which makes people feel like they are on the scene. It is indeed a good article!" The old man praised Said, not waiting for Govan to be happy, but changed the topic, "But..."
"But what? Is there anything that needs to be revised? I'll write back right away and ask him to modify it according to your request." Govan's heart hung up again.
"That's not true. Although there are still some minor problems, the standard for publication is sufficient. It's just that the next issue's articles are already full, and there is no way to publish them for the time being. I guess they can only be moved to the next issue." The old man said. said with a smile.
Can it be published? Ge Wen was so happy that he wished to go back and write a reply right away. The old man also laughed. Both Sun Shaoping and Ge Wen, the author of this novel, are good young people. You can see young talents emerging continuously. This made him even more happy.
