Chapter 39 Coping
Editor Zhao said bitterly, "You are being targeted this time. They are trying to hold on to the unhistorical content in your novel. You have had an affair with the writer Yuanyuan. Is it a contradiction? "
Chen Linfeng knew who was behind it as soon as he heard it. Isn't this the one who wrote the diary in later generations?
"I have never met him. The only time we had any interaction was at the New Concept Competition. I remember she should be one of the judges."
Zhao Changtian slapped his head, "Ah , I remembered that she was very dissatisfied with your entry article at that time. It has been so long, why is she still thinking about it?”
At this time, Cheng Yongxin also knocked on the door and came in. He also heard the news and came to inform Chen Linfeng.
After learning about the relationship between Yuanyuan and Chen Linfeng.
Cheng Yongxin showed his surprise, "How come this Yuanyuan doesn't have the tolerance of a senior at all, and doesn't recognize other people's ideas, so there is no need to kill him."
Chen Linfeng tried his best. Remaining calm, he asked, "Editor-in-Chief Cheng, which departments are generally responsible for our domestic novels?"
Cheng Yongxin thought for a while, "There are quite a lot of people who can talk, but they are more nominal. Yes, it’s the General Administration of Publication and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.”
Chen Linfeng continued to ask, "So as long as these two departments do not issue a ban, my novel will not have any major problems at present?"
"Logically speaking, that is the case."
"Then this There is still room for maneuver."
Zhao Changtian said, "You are thinking too simply. People are publishing criticism every day, and other media and public opinions are likely to swarm it. Will the cultural-related departments be affected by the public opinion? It’s hard to say.”
“If they can influence it, so can we.”
Cheng Yongxin heard what Chen Linfeng meant, "Xiaofeng, do you mean to open up the situation here?"
He pointed to the night scene with neon lights flashing outside.
“That’s right, as long as the situation is opened up in Neon, and the flowers bloom inside the wall and the fragrance outside the wall, the cultural-related departments are always not good. Banning a book can make it famous in other countries, and there is no principle problem in itself. "Novel."
Editor Zhao's eyes lit up, "That's the truth."
Then he thought of a new question, "But we can't guarantee that the novel will be published in Neon. Get on fire.”
Chen Linfeng chuckled, "Public opinion can be guided. When one-sided reports are aggregated, sometimes they seem more true than the truth.
The novel will be released in two days. If it is really popular, it will naturally be the most popular one. Well, if the news is spread to the country, the public opinion will be largely solved."
"What if the expected results don't happen?" Cheng Yongxin asked curiously.
“If the sales situation is relatively average, then we can select part of the truth and send it back to the country.
For example, only positive comments in newspapers, select book buyers near the bookstore, and ask for their opinions on the book Wait, as long as there are enough samples, you can always select complimentary remarks
When there are only one or two reports or favorable comments from readers, people may think it is an exception. When there are more reports, people will think that this is the general view of neon people. "
Cheng Yongxin glanced at him calmly. He didn't expect this kid to come up with such an idea.
He was noncommittal and just said, "You are deceiving the public. "
This is nothing but a rudimentary method for later generations to learn journalism.
Chen Linfeng said plausibly, "I did not forge the truth. At best, I was choosing the truth.
Besides, Yuanyuan doesn't follow the rules. King Arthur is a legend, and there is no historical truth. I have not changed the settings of other characters, so it cannot be regarded as distorting historical figures or tampering with history. "
Chen Linfeng's face was full of grievances, "I am a minor, I don't understand these things, and being put on the line like this, I can't do anything to save it? "
Editor Zhao made the final decision, "Just do it like this, you can't just sit back and wait for death.
Editor-in-Chief Cheng, you can’t sit idly by and ignore the key results of the exchange meeting. It will not look good on you as the leader of the team. "Editor Zhao doesn't care whether he is deceiving the public or not. No one knows what a literary person is doing. This kind of small operation is nothing compared to those crappy things.
Chen Linfeng was promoted by him and is currently one of the two most well-known young writers in Germination Magazine. He could not allow a rising star to stop being criticized by such literati.
Cheng Yongxin choked, "I'm here to inform you of the news and give you ideas. Why do you, Mr. Zhao, still rely on me?"
Editor Zhao looked at Cheng Yongxin with a serious face. The editor-in-chief said in a deep voice, "Is this kind of behavior of silencing others because of disagreements with some ideas something that you like to see?"
Cheng Yongxin also became serious. Of course he didn't like it, Even extremely disgusted with this approach.
“Don’t worry, I will be the editor-in-chief of the several magazines we come to this time. I will do the work. Those of us who work in literary magazines have never been afraid of anyone except for talking about our voices.”
In the end, Zhao Changtian gave Chen Linfeng reassurance,
“You don’t have to worry too much about this. It’s really not possible. I will go back to China to find Balao and ask him to come forward. Our sprout will not be unable to protect our own people. "Stay."
Chen Linfeng was startled, "There is no need to make such a big noise. Mr. Ba is old, so it is best not to disturb him."
It seems that the public opinion in the country is indeed turbulent this time. He was very old. Within two days, Chen’s father and mother called him from overseas, worried about his mental state.
Even Shi Xiaolong, a big-hearted person, came to ask,
"Xiao Feng, are you being bullied? Why do I see so many people criticizing you in the newspaper?"
"It's okay, it's a normal literary exchange, you don't have to worry."
Shi Xiaolong hesitated for a while and said, "How about I ask a reporter to help you talk."
Chen Linfeng quickly stopped him, "Don't, Brother Long, you are an actor and you can't get involved at all." , and no one listens to her words. "
This kind of thing is not something that a child star can interfere with. There is also a chain of contempt in various domestic circles. Nowadays, the literary circle obviously looks down on the film and television industry.
An actor's intervention in the literary field is likely to attract criticism and counterattack, and it may even affect his acting career.
"Well, you should be careful." Regarding his brother's words, Shi Xiaolong still listened to his advice.
"Oh, by the way, Shu Chang called me to ask about you. She is also worried about your situation."
"Okay, I understand. Please help me convey it. It’s okay.”
……
At Sprout Magazine, Zheng Yuling is on the phone with the author she is responsible for.
"Yes, Brother Wang, it would be best if you can help us speak. We are the pen bearers. Who doesn't hate people who cover their mouths when they can't beat them?"
"Sister Li , Mei Ya will never watch others bully her own people. This is what happened to Chen Linfeng today, and it will be the same if something happens to Sister Li tomorrow."
...
Zheng Yuling hung up. The phone call was a bit sad. The situation is not good now, and public opinion has begun to spill out from the literary criticism circle.
Some social news commentaries are reporting on the confrontation between traditional media and new online media.
This incident seems to be regarded as the first friction between the new media forces and the old forces.
Some media also regarded it as the first voice of those born in the 1980s.
When the value is added, the meaning is different. Chen Linfeng's novels are being scrutinized by more people.
What she is most worried about now is that the higher-ups will directly ban it, trying to cut off this public opinion incident from the source.
