Chapter 586 Hot Potato (Two in One)


The next day, Shen Changwen and Dong Xiuyu waited for Zhang Guangnian and the dialect in Sanlian Bookstore in Yanjing.

"Old Zhang, Teacher Fang, it is really our honor to see you."

"I am also deeply honored."

Fang Yan sets its sights Transferring from Shen Changwen to the woman next to him, "This is Comrade Dong Xiuyu, right?" Shen Changwen nodded, "She will go to the Sanlian Bookstore in Xiangjiang this time, just like Teacher Fang, you will take on important positions, I hope you can take care of each other during this period of work in Xiangjiang." Then, with his own recommendation, Fang Yan and Dong Xiuyu shook hands and said hello to each other.

"Teacher Fang, I have never been to Xiangjiang and I have no idea about the environment in Xiangjiang. I may have troubled you more in the future." Dong Xiuyu's tone was a little excited.

Fang Yan smiled, "Everyone is a colleague, I will never refuse where I can help."

Shen Changwen welcomed them into the president's office and said to Xiao Zi, Pan Yaoming and others applied to the Ministry and the Society to transfer comrades from the mainland to Xiangjiang for support, and they also named each other several times. I hope that Fang Yan could come to Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore as the editor-in-chief.

"Old Xiao and Brother Yaoming have loved each other."

Fang Yan waved his hand, "I just helped the bookstore solve some problems several times during my cooperation with Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore."

"Teacher Fang is really too modest."

< br>Shen Changwen raised his hand and signaled everyone to sit down, "Old Xiao and the others wrote more than once that you have repeatedly solved the urgent needs of the bookstore. And if Teacher Fang had not exclusively granted the distribution rights of his novels to the bookstore, I would be afraid of the operation of the bookstore. The situation will deteriorate further. "

"It's just a temporary suspension, and it has not been completely resolved."

Fang Yan said: "I believe that President Shen, you know better about the situation of the Sanlian Bookstore in Xiangjiang than me?" br>


Dong Xiuyu had already expected that the condition of the Sanlian Bookstore in Xiangjiang was very bad, but she never expected it to be so bad.

Although I have the exclusive distribution rights of dialect novels, I still cannot stop the decline in the publishing business losses and owes a lot of debts.

"This is indeed a very difficult challenge for you two." Shen Changwen said: "And to be honest, after Sanlian Bookstore Group was independently established, since January this year, it has been At the beginning, all of its Sanlian Bookstores will be transformed into branches, and the Yanjing, Xiangjiang and other branches will be responsible for their own profits and losses. The headquarters will no longer allocate funds and financial subsidies..."

Dong Xiuyu's heart skipped a beat and blurted out. : "President, what does 'self-bearing profit and loss' mean?"

"That is, the meaning of full-time and full responsibility!" Shen Changwen explained the intention of Sanlian Bookstore Group to do so with a serious look on his face.

Dong Xiuyu suddenly realized that Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is not just a hot potato, it is simply a fire pit. It is precisely because it is useless to add much firewood that Sanlian Bookstore Group will stop allocating funds. This regards Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore as a It's no help, let it die.

Suddenly, I began to regret taking the appointment letter from the deputy general manager, and even thought about what way to refuse the labour.

But I saw Fang Yan touching her chin, "There is no problem for self-protection, but I have to mention some conditions."

"We also know that doing this is a bit difficult, so as long as the conditions proposed by Teacher Fang are reasonable, the group can consider agreeing."

Shen Changwen thought for a while.

"Since it is your own profit and loss, we must give Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore the power to manage and make decisions independently."

Fang Yan smiled and said the same truth as Li Yunlong, letting me know. It’s okay to make money, but the headquarters cannot wear tight hoops for Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore. It also wants to make a gun and be a good treasure. This is called unreasonable. At least it has to give the branch a certain degree of autonomy.

"This condition is very reasonable."

Shen Changwen said: "But Teacher Fang, I want to ask more, what are you going to do after you have autonomy?"

"Although I have not learned about Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore in depth, I have also Mr. Xiao and Brother Yaoming have heard of one or two. "

Fang Yan said that the main problem of the loss in the business of Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is not the employees. Xiao Zi, Pan Yaoming and others are all very outstanding. The most fundamental problem for very hard-working people is actually in their positioning. The bookstores used to be viewed as the literary and artistic united front position in Xiangjiang.

Therefore, the publishing policy, business management and other aspects focus on exchanges and communication with the Xiangjiang cultural and academic circles, while neglecting commercialization.

"Teacher Fang is worthy of being Teacher Fang, it really hits the nail on the head."

Shen Changwen and Dong Xiuyu looked at each other and agreed.

"Xiangjiang's book publishing market is highly commercialized, and the majority of readers in Xiangjiang also prefer popular reading materials full of commercialization."

Fang dialect said: "So the publication of Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is from the Hong Kong Sanlian Bookstore. Most novels, books and large-scale sales have very few sales, which leads to such a big loss and debt. Therefore, the most urgent task is to reform and transform the bookstore and change its business policy to commercialization. "
< br>Dong Xiuyu hesitated, "But commercial operation... can this really work?"

" Although Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore has big financial holes, it has been in Xiangjiang for so many years. A large number of personal resources and a large distribution network, and rich experience in overseas publishing and sales and partners, these are favorable conditions for commercialization. "

Fang Yan said seriously: "I think as long as you do it carefully, the commercialization of Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore will be a day after its success."

"Ba!"

Shen Changwen applauded, in fact, Since the restructuring of Sanlian Bookstore Group, it has been learning from the commercialization experience of Xiangjiang Publishing Company.

Fangyan's plan is exactly in line with the future strategy of Sanlian Bookstore Group.

So, she was preparing to use Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore as one of the pilot projects of commercialization, giving other branches of the group their own profits and losses and business operations experience. When she thought of this, Shen Changwen excitedly held the dialect hand. He stared at him like a treasure.

"No wonder Mr. Xiao and the others repeatedly asked Teacher Fang to be the editor-in-chief of the bookstore."

"Yes, it is really wise to let you be the editor-in-chief of the bookstore."

"Yes, it is really wise to let you be the editor-in-chief of the bookstore. What is the move! "

Dong Xiuyu saw Fang Yan speak very well, and felt that although Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is a dragon's den, it is not impossible to make a breakthrough.

After all, if you stayed in Sanlian Bookstore in Yanjing, you might still be the deputy director, and in Xiangjiang, you are the deputy general manager.

"Excessive award."

Fang Yan said: "I am just such an immature idea. How to develop it needs to be analyzed in detail."

"Xiuyu, after arriving in Xiangjiang, we must cooperate well. The teacher is advancing commercialization reform, do you understand? "

Shen Changwen looked at the dialect on the left and Dong Xiuyu on the right.

Seeing that Dong Xiuyu said "I understand" without hesitation, Fang Yan smiled and stretched out his hand, "So Comrade Xiuyu, happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation, Teacher Fang! "Dong Xiuyu held her hands tightly and shook her hard for a few times.

………Half a month passed without realizing it, and what was supposed to be reached finally came. Fang Yan and Dong Xiuyu’s appointment letter have been released.


There are not many people who know that Fangyan will be transferred to the Sanlian Bookstore in Xiangjiang, and Liu Xinwu is one of the insiders.

Fang Yan and him returned to the editorial department of "People's Literature" from the cultural department and immediately convened all the editors for a meeting.

In front of everyone, the heavy tone was mixed with a little regret, and slowly read out the news of the dialect work transfer.

In an instant, the whole hall was in an uproar, and one by one whispered to the ears, and an incredible look appeared on his face to a greater or lesser extent. "Well, why did you suddenly transfer Teacher Fang to the Sanlian Bookstore in Xiangjiang?" "Yes, under the leadership of Editor Liu and Teacher Fang, our "People's Literature" can be done. It is said that it is booming. At this critical juncture, how can Teacher Fang be transferred? Without Teacher Fang, the entire editorial department will be without a leader. What should we do? "

"Yes, right, right , We can't do without Teacher Fang! ”

“………”

The conference room suddenly became a mess, and everyone was chirping and quarreling.

"Silent, everyone, calm!"

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one bar, one bar, one bar!

Chen Xiaoman said: "Yanzi's job transfer this time is obviously a promotion, and the leaders want to add burdens to him." Then he glanced around, "I heard that Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is currently on the scene. In the very serious business difficulties, we urgently need to send capable generals from the mainland to support him."

Liu Xinwu echoed: "Yanzi's achievements and abilities in "People's Literature" have been obvious to all, and only editors as outstanding as him are Only by helping Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore get rid of its current predicament as soon as possible, and even bring it to a new peak like "People's Literature". "

"But...but..."

Zhu Wei's words were full of reluctance. After all, he had been with Fangyan for so many years, and the two of them had a tacit understanding of their work and got along well. "Nothing is true. As a member of the cultural front, we should obey the organization's arrangements." Liu Xinwu turned his attention to the dialect.

"Editor Liu said this well. We are all the same bricks, and we can move wherever we need it."

Fang Yan said with a serious face: "Xiangjiang Sanlian Bookstore is the only stronghold fortress in our mainland literary circle in Xiangjiang. It cannot be broken down anyway. This time, the department transferred me from the Humanities Society to the bookstore as the editor-in-chief. It is both progress and Challenge. "Yanzi, you have to worry more about it in the future." Liu Xinwu promised that he would absolutely have no choice but to use what he needed to use and "People's Literature".

Fang Yan repeatedly thanked him, and then said that before officially leaving office, he prepared a special gift for "People's Literature".

"Great gift?!"

Liu Xinwu, Chen Xiaoman and others looked at each other and saw Fang Yan take out a thick stack of manuscripts from the briefcase.

Zhu Wei looked closely and the title of "New Realism - New Trends in Realist Literature" was suddenly reflected in his eyes.

At the same time, several other theoretical articles related to "New Realistic Novels" were also circulated among the people present.

Zhu Wei asked the question that everyone else wanted to ask: "Teacher Fang, is this new realism..."

In addition to saying things to Zhang Guangnian, Liang Zuo and others, Fang Yan is the only one who told Zhang Guangnian, Liang Zuo and others. , and repeated it to everyone again and added some new insights:

"New realism is still realistic, but it has a basic principle, that is, to maintain the original ecology of real life!"

"There is no grand narrative, no historical trajectory, and only the mediocre and trivial people. One of the core concepts of life, the troubles and desires of small people, and the difficulty and helplessness of ordinary small people in the big society is that it is not easy to survive. ”

"………”
<< br>Listen to the explanation, it seemed like they opened a brand new door, and they had a little more insight into realist literature.

"However, compared with traditional realist literature, this new realist novel still has many flaws and shortcomings."

The dialect almost answers questions and resolves the doubts lingering in the hearts of the editorial department one by one.

Soon, Zhu Wei, Chen Xiaoman and others suddenly realized that "People's Literature" could set off a new round of trends in the literary world with "new realism". Seeing this, Liu Xinwu's eyes were full of heat , "Yanzi, I didn't expect you would leave us such a big gift!"

"This is too exaggerated."

Fang Yan's tone was firm, "No matter what I am I have the position of the humanities club in which publishing house in the future and what I do in the future."

"Teacher Fang said nothing wrong with it!"

Everyone present bursts of laughter, but as they smiled, the atmosphere became a little wrong and became solemn and sad.

"It is impolite to come but not come. Yanzi, since you give us such a good gift, we must also express our opinions."

Liu Xinwu is preparing to hold a banquet tonight , hold a farewell party for the dialect.

Although it was a farewell party, although everyone had smiles on their faces and said congratulations, they finally didn't hold back.

Before the farewell party, Fang Yan hurriedly handed over the work he should have assigned to Zhu Wei, Wang Fu and others one by one.

It even includes the writer resources and stable manuscript sources he has at hand, such as the second part of Lu Yao's "Ordinary World".

After all, it is impossible for me to come back in a year or two after I went to Xiangjiang.

"Teacher Fang, I remember everything you told me. Thank you for your cultivation."

As an editor, Zhu Wei is very clear about how valuable and important these writer resources are. He holds them with both hands. He put on a cup and used tea instead of wine to toast him.

"Do it well, I guess you will have to sit in the future as the deputy editor-in-chief."

Fang Yan held the enamel cup and clinked it with him. "Yanzi, time is tight, and I can't write a poem that suits you, so I just recite a few words." Liu Xinwu used water instead of wine and took the initiative to drink a drink. "Don't worry about having no friends in the future. No one in the world knows you."

Immediately afterwards, it was Chen Xiaoman, Wang Fu, Wang Pingzhi and others who sent their blessings one by one and said similar words:

The editorial department of "People's Literature" is the family of the dialect.

These people are all from the family members of the dialect.

Fang Yan suppressed a faint sadness in his heart, and bowed his fists and said, "Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in my work over the years! Thank you for your recognition of my work in "People's Literature"! I hope in the future One day, I can come back here and fight side by side with you!” (The end of this chapter)
