Chapter 129 Demoted to "Common People"
"The Genius Writer Gu Lu Grows Under Frustration"
——Facing the rejection of the "budding" manuscript, he chose to face the difficulties head-on
< br>The main title is nothing. Newspapers for students such as the Young Pioneer and China Youth Daily like to talk about setbacks and growth, but what the hell is the subtitle?
Qi Bian looked panicked, especially the word "Gu Lu" made him have bad memories, "Moon Stone" and "Yesterday's Park"...
Looking at the content, I thought the writer Gu Lu was not very famous, but now his writing experience is revealed in the eyes of editor Qi Bian - an award-winning professional in composition and a production machine of wonderful short stories.
In the end, the Young Herald gained value, neither salty nor salty. [Through the persistent efforts of classmate Gu Lu, we successfully signed a contract with Youth Digest through two articles. In short, we must allow students to fail, use failure as an opportunity, and correctly allow students to cultivate the spirit of facing difficulties, daring to try, and not being arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat. ]
"?" Is the value you summarized too forced?
"I am the editor-in-chief..." People's first reaction when encountering a problem is always to excuse themselves. For example, Qi Bian wanted to say that "Youth Digest" and "Grudge" have different tones.
I dare not say that Youth Digest is not as good as Germination, then this excuse will be too exaggerated.
"The deputy editor-in-chief of Youth Digest and I have a good relationship, it's Qu Minghong," the editor-in-chief of Maoya said, "You should have heard the name of the old song, right?"
Qi Bian must be aware of Qu Minghong's name. He has been nominated. National Outstanding Young and Middle-aged Book Editor Award - Although it is just a nomination, this award has actually existed for 20 to 30 years and has only been held five times in total. Those who can be nominated can be regarded as elites in the publishing industry.
"Let me tell you about the evaluation of "Moonstone" and "Yesterday's Park" by old songs." Editor-in-Chief Moya said, "It's not at all the level of student creation. What I even want to say is, This is no longer a story that ordinary writers can write. It is impeccable in terms of story connotation, smoothness of writing, and interest in writing. It is one of the best works I have seen in the past two years. ”
< br>The editor-in-chief of Bu Ya continued, "My youngest daughter suddenly handed me an ice cream. She told me that she bought it for me specially after winning the prize in the lottery. Then a sentence from "Yesterday's Park" suddenly flashed in my mind. [Death is like drawing lots at the stationery stand at the school gate. One day you will suddenly win the lottery]. What I conveyed may be different, but it is not much different. Do you understand what deputy editor Qu means? "
< br>Of course I understand that if after reading a book, you will suddenly think of some fragments in your future life, then there is no doubt that this book is a great success.
"I didn't reject the manuscript, but there were detail issues with these two manuscripts, so I sent them back and asked the author to revise them before sending them to me." Qi Bian explained quickly.
Hearing this, editor-in-chief sprouting, his blood pressure rose. Looking at the innocent-looking Qi Bian, he couldn't bear it anymore. "Deputy editor-in-chief Qu praised it after reading it. It's a rare masterpiece in the past two years. How awesome are you?" ? Want to teach writers how to write.”
I still wanted to be sophistical, but was interrupted by the editor-in-chief of Moya, “Many authors have complained to you before, saying that the revision suggestions you provided were too general and they didn’t know how to make them. . As the editor-in-chief, I don’t know when the requirements for submissions for "Sprouting" became so high. I think you are not suitable for the position of editor for the time being. You should study as an assistant editor first."
An assistant is an editorial assistant. Generally speaking, it is an internship position. It is a carrot and a pit. It is difficult to get promoted after falling down. Qi Bian still wanted to be miserable, but he didn't make a sound, because the look in the editor's eyes indicated that if it hadn't been for nearly five years since you joined the editorial department, he would have fired you directly.
Why many authors complained, Qi Bian knew that this was not important. What was important was that because of him, "Grudge" lost a talented writer.
Regretful, Qi Bian walked out of the office as if he was in mourning. He regretted that he had not investigated clearly before he wasted time in front of the author, and was kicked into a brick wall. He also regretted that he did not learn more about the weak persimmons. It may take a long time before he has such an opportunity in the future.
……
Cut it out and collect it, hehe! Gu Jiayu used her pocket money to buy newspapers, Wudu Daily and Young Herald. She cut out all the reports about her brother.
"Brother is getting better and better, it's really great! To celebrate my brother's appearance in the newspaper, I will eat another ice cream today." The first half of Gu Jiayu's sentence was for his brother, and the second half was for himself Greedy.
Speaking of which, Gu Nuxia has been playing on her mobile phone more frequently recently.
Some people play more with their phones, while others play less. After all, according to the law of conservation of energy, there will always be people who don’t use their phones to make money.
Gu Lu didn't play much, and he actually forgot important things.
The sun reached the top of the head again, and Gu Lu rushed into the teacher's office and submitted the manuscript for the essay call.
"You are the only one missing, the rest of the students have already submitted." Teacher Gao said.
Wine Culture Essay Competition, the grade director didn’t say anything, but he reminded her overtly and covertly that Gu Lu must participate.
"Written poetry?" Teacher Gao's expression changed. Just look at the things on her desk and you can see that she is very interested in poetry.
Generally speaking, the essay submission will be "any subject matter except poetry", but perhaps there are too many poems related to wine from ancient times to the present, so there really is no "exclusion" this time.
It is very fluent. Teacher Gao has read "The Ringing Shadow" and "Why Do Chinese People Have National Confidence"? This poem is exactly the same, with many allusions.
The allusion at the beginning is more obvious, but later it becomes more obscure.
[Zhuang literati are bold
Some people are using you to go crazy
Some people are using you to seize power
Sometimes you are just a prop
To enhance the atmosphere on the negotiating table
……]
"Seize power? Release military power over a glass of wine?" Teacher Gao looked at it again and found no problem, "You know how to write essays. If the poems are well written, they will be very valuable in the essay contest." "Liquid Fire" had a very special meaning in the previous life. There are many versions, because it was circulated on the Internet as an essay for a perfect score in the college entrance examination, so many of the contents searched on the Internet are modified versions, turned into modern poems piled with rhetoric. In fact, the emotions of the original version are quite satisfactory.
The original author Liu Deliang has been an editor in newspapers for more than 30 years and has published many things. His writing quality is really better than the versions blindly modified by the Internet.
Gu Lu felt relieved after handing in the manuscript. He still felt uncomfortable staying in the teacher's office.
Return to the classroom - Damn it, don't hurt innocent people! Gu Lu immediately dodged. Fortunately, he was mainly agile.
Huang Lu was holding a broom and was chasing a male classmate in the class. Gu Lu's impression of Huang Lu was that she was the little sister of Zebra Lu Yi, and he was even less familiar with the boy he was chasing.
This scene seems familiar. It seems that I have experienced it in junior high school. Who is Zhang Yudong and that one? Gu Lu had forgotten the name of the female classmate holding the broom.
“Is chasing after someone with a broom a national unity?” Gu Lu muttered and returned to his seat.
In another political class, Li Guyuan, a representative of the Chinese class, helped with tutoring. He felt that his level in this class had improved by leaps and bounds.
But the progress of another tutor "teacher" was not good. My deskmate Qi Caiwei's tutoring in mathematics, physics and chemistry had little effect. It fully proves that having good grades and being able to teach are two different things.
The core reason why Gu Lu spends his time on this is Liu Cixin's science fiction short story "Bring Her Eyes" that he won. It's fine at the moment. It's basically soft science fiction. But if something like "The Three-Body Problem" is triggered, For hard science fiction, if your grades in science are too poor, it won’t be so reasonable to write.
Qi Caiwei, you have to work hard! Gu Lu thought to himself, and then glanced at it, huh? Why did my deskmate fall asleep?
I saw her putting up a political textbook as a shield to protect "secrets". Did she go to a barbecue last night? So sleepy.
“Our sixth lesson is marriage under the protection of law,” the teacher said on the podium, “protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly, minors, and disabled people.”
The politics teacher is a A very talented teacher, why do you say he is talented? Because he often talks about a lot of things outside the classroom.
Especially when talking about things like family and love, you can see that his eyes are a little hazy, and it is obvious that there is a story.
“With the rise of the Internet in recent years, people communicate more, and problems in family and love are more likely to arise,” the politics teacher said. “Generally speaking, the existence of the Internet is good, but the recent trend on the Internet has It’s not good to be handsome and beautiful.”
“If it is not stopped, the Internet will kill short, fat and ugly people in a few years.” The politics teacher suddenly made a U-turn, “Okay, let’s go back to the textbooks. Marriage law prohibits marriage between direct blood relatives and collateral blood relatives within three generations, so how should it be calculated? "
This is also the style of the political teacher.
"Zeng Jie, you just talked so much, let me answer the question. Is your cousin who has the same grandfather as you a collateral blood relative within three generations?" the politics teacher said, "Think about it. Answer again, this question has a trap.”
The teacher was answering questions, and Gu Lu said something in his mind. The golden finger he hadn't seen for a long time triggered the [Too Absurd and Bizarre] [Win with "Weird"] [Imagination Master]
Okay, If we talk about the three labels that were drawn before, Gu Lu can still analyze them. At present... they are a mess, too absurd and bizarre. This short sentence is obviously to explain the characteristics of the work. He can only think of Camus, but it is also related to the following. does not comply.
[Amazon’s best-selling books in 2017] [Central Public Literary Award] [Atypical masterpiece], these three Gu Lu have goals, because he searched, and the Central Public Literary Award is Neon The awards over there...
"Wrong, listen carefully and don't whisper to your classmates all the time." The politics teacher searched the whole class and wanted to pick another person to answer.
Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda! While Gu Lu was writing furiously, he used his toes to give signals to his deskmate.
Qi Caiwei woke up from her sleepy eyes. Because her left cheek was directly pressed against the table, the pattern of the table material was printed directly on her face, and her whole face was filled with confusion.
"Then, classmate Qi Caiwei, you answer."
Before she had time to figure out what happened, the teacher's voice came to Qi Caiwei's ears. Fortunately, her deskmate was there. hint.
I saw Gu Lu tapping his textbook, and Qi Caiwei saw a line of writing. Although it was a bit sloppy, she could barely recognize it, [Is the cousin of the same grandfather a third-generation collateral blood relative].
“Oh, it’s a third-generation descendant.” Qi Caiwei nodded.
"Very good," the politics teacher asked continuously, "Then how are blood relatives calculated?"
It seemed that the politics teacher was not going to let her go.
"It uses the generation affinity calculation method." Qi Caiwei couldn't remember, but she knew where this knowledge point was located in the book, so she answered the teacher's question.
“It’s better not to stand up your textbooks in class in the future, so that the teacher can’t see you and don’t know whether you understand or not.” The politics teacher asked Qi Caiwei to sit down.
