1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 575

The Popular Literature and Art Publishing House has just been established, and the editorial department has two or three big and small cats. Including Lin Weimin, the president and editor-in-chief, there are only four people, but they have finally assembled a team, right?

Lin Weimin was inspired by Tong Zhonggui who took the initiative to come to the door, and felt that the team should be strengthened.

Despite the small scale of the Popular Literature and Art Publishing House, although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. He is now the president and editor-in-chief, with great power.

When the phone was connected, Yu Hua on the other end said joyfully, "Mr. Lin, Happy Chinese New Year!"

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Lin Weimin asked, "When do you plan to come to Beijing!"

Yu Hua said: "It's March, the work unit has almost finished the procedures. I'll go back to my hometown for a few days, pack up some clothes and go to Yanjing."

"Now I have an opportunity, would you like to continue to be an editor?"

Yu Hua used to be the editor of "Yanyulou" magazine under Jiaxing Literary Association for a while.

Teacher Lin finally saw my talent in editing, and planned to call me into the Chinese Language Society.

"I am willing! Of course I am willing! If I didn't have the ability to be transferred to Yanjing, I would not resign from the unit!" Yu Hua said happily.

Lin Weimin nodded, "Okay, I'm short of people here, you come and I'll let you be an associate editor."

Yu Huaxin was ecstatic, so why not just join the Guowen Club?Can I still be an associate editor?
He really wanted to call his father right now, and ask him to go back to his hometown to see if the ancestral grave was open?
"Mr. Lin, you are really my bole!" Yu Hua said excitedly.

"Okay, don't say such polite words, I'll wait for you in Yanjing!"

"Okay, I'll go there as soon as possible!"

Yu Hua went as fast as possible. Just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he came to the Guowen Society with a bag of clothes and toiletries.

Seeing Lin Weimin, Yu Hua's expression was so excited that he almost bowed his head and said, "Bu has been wandering for half his life..."

Lin Weimin calmed him down, and took him to the third floor of the front building. The office of the newly established Popular Literature and Art Publishing House is here, and next to it is the second editorial office of contemporary literature. The young people in the editorial department were dug from there. .

Yu Hua followed behind Lin Weimin, looking happy like a husky about to go out for a walk. He was looking forward to seeing several senior editors, but when his eyes met the sign at the entrance of the editorial department, he froze.

"Editorial Department of Popular Literature and Art Publishing House".

Lin Weimin noticed that Yu Hua had stopped, turned around, and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Yu Hua's eyes were still on the sign, and he was dazed for two seconds, "Lin... Teacher Lin, what's going on with this popular literature and art publishing house? I... I'm going to be an editor here?"

Lin Weimin looked at him, "Yes! Don't underestimate our popular literature and art publishing house. This is the sub-brand of our Chinese Literature Society. Back then, his superior publishing house was a popular book publishing house, the largest in the country. Publishing House. The building we are using now was the office building of the Popular Book Publishing House..."

Yu Hua didn't hear exactly what Lin Weimin said, he only heard the sound of the broken dream.

Didn't you agree to come to the Chinese Literature Society as an editor?How did it become a popular literature and art publishing house?
I have already invited all the guests at work and at home, and all my relatives, friends and neighbors in the neighborhood know that I have come to Yanjing Guowen Society as an editor in Yu Hua!And also the deputy editor!
Now you tell me that you are an editor at a popular literature and art publishing house?

This... this... isn't this a lie?
Just as this idea came to Yu Hua's mind, he suddenly remembered that when Lin Weimin called him, he didn't seem to mention Guowen Society as an editor at all!
Thinking of this, Yu Hua couldn't help casting his eyes on Lin Weimin.

Lin Weimin looked at him with a smile, "Our Popular Literature and Art Publishing House, except that the name is a sub-brand, in fact, all the treatment is the same as that of the Guowen Society. No, it is a little higher than the Guowen Society. This year I will give the publishing house There are four places for promotion titles, including you, there are exactly four editors in our publishing house, and everyone has a share."

Looking at Lin Weimin's expression, for some reason, Yu Hua saw an extra line of writing on his forehead.

——Crafting and cunning.

but……

Yu Hua noticed the titles that Lin Weimin said, four people, four places to evaluate the titles, isn't that what everyone sees?
The current professional title evaluation is not as bad as the later generations, especially in units like the Guowen Society, the gold content of the professional title is very high.

Yu Hua's current title is only a third-level writer, which is a bit low.

If you join the National Literature Society, no, it is a popular literature and art publishing house, you can apply for editorial titles, and be judged as an editorial reviewer or an associate editorial reviewer. Will you get up without a lot of salary?The country allows the declaration of dual titles.

Anyway, the unit has resigned. If the Popular Literature and Art Publishing House really does what Mr. Lin said, no matter how bad it is, it will be the sub-brand of the Chinese Literature Society.

Yu Hua looked at Lin Weimin again, Teacher Lin should not lie to me!
"Hey, let me just say, it will definitely be beneficial to hang out with Mr. Lin."

Lin Weimin smiled at Yu Hua, and led him into the office, "Let me introduce to you, this is Yu Hua, the new editor of our editorial department."

"This is Li Xuegang, this is Liu Maowen, and this is Qi Xianghua, three young and promising editors from our publishing house."

Yu Hua shook hands with the three of them with a smile on his face, his already half-cold heart was completely chilled, these three people looked younger than him, and there was no one in the Guowen Society?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this popular literature and art publishing house had no future, and he was fooled!
"Xiao Li is 59 years old, one year older than you, and I appointed him as the editor-in-chief of our editorial department.

Xiao Liu is 60 years old, the same age as you, Yu Hua.And Xiao Qi is the youngest, 63 years old, and he only joined our Chinese Literature Society the year before last.

The three of them used to be in the second editorial office of contemporary literature, just next door, and they all liked popular literature, so now they volunteered to become members of our publishing house. "

After introducing the three of them, Lin Weimin said again: "I specially transferred Yu Hua from Zhijiang. He is a writer and has worked as an editor. He has outstanding abilities. He came here as an associate editor."

After Lin Weimin introduced himself to several people, he said loudly: "Don't look at our publishing house with relatively few staff, but our popular literature and art publishing house has a very glorious history. Zhao Shuli, Shen Congwen, Liu Qing, Zhou Libo ... Our publishing house has published the works of these great writers.

After Mr. Zhao Shuli's novel "Three Mile Bay" was completed, several big publishing houses competed for the publishing rights of this novel, but in the end Mr. Zhao Shuli gave this novel to our Popular Literature and Art Publishing House. At that time, our popular literature and art The publishing house has little reputation, low specifications, and low manuscript fees. Do you know why? "

The four people present shook their heads ignorantly, Lin Weimin nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "'Popular Literature and Art Publishing House' is because of this name! Our publishing house has a glorious history and excellent tradition, and the books we publish have always been Being close to the people is not only the type and style of books, but also the price.

Mr. Zhao Shuli felt that handing over novels to us could reduce the burden of buying books for the masses and allow more people to see his works.

The final facts also proved that Mr. Zhao Shuli's choice was not wrong.

After "Sanliwan" was published by our Popular Literature and Art Publishing House, it was quickly loved by the broad masses of the people and sold hundreds of thousands of copies. and cooperative literature. "

Speaking of this, Lin Weimin's tone was a bit solemn, "Comrades, I tell you this not to emphasize our past glory, but to let everyone remember the history, face the future, and keep in mind the ideals and ideals of our publishing house. Mission! We are a publishing house close to the people!"

After Lin Weimin finished speaking, the eyes of the four young people present showed a bit of emotion, feeling the heavy mission and responsibility on their shoulders.

Lin Weimin looked at everyone's expressions and nodded in satisfaction. Sprinkling some chicken soup properly is still useful.

He looked at Yu Hua, and said, "Yu Hua, Xiao Li and the three of them are in charge of Mr. Jin Yong's collection of works. After you come, you must get familiar with the work rhythm as soon as possible and strive to release Jin Yong's collection of works as soon as possible. This is the responsibility of our editorial department." The first shot, although the name of the Guowen Society is still on the name, it represents our work achievements in the society. With these achievements, I can win more benefits and treatment for you!"

Sprinkling chicken soup and drawing big cakes, Mr. Lin, the leader, is becoming more and more frantic.

Several young people are full of confidence and high morale.

When Yu Hua heard the words "Jin Yong's Works Collection", his eyes lit up.

He loves to read martial arts novels the most. He not only loves to read them, but also loves to write them. When he was in the National Academy of Arts, he wrote a lot of martial arts novels, and one of them was published called "Blood Plum Blossoms".

The dissatisfaction and anxiety in his heart completely disappeared after hearing the news.

How can there be a better job than writing martial arts novels at work!
Teacher Lin is really my lucky star!
After introducing Yu Hua, the morale was boosted.

Lin Weimin took Yu Hua to the third floor of the back building first. He came to Yanjing alone without a place to stay.

"Let's live in the dormitory for the next two days, and I'll ask someone to find you a house later."

Yu Hua walked around the dormitory, feeling very cordial.

Over the years, he didn't know how many days and nights he had struggled here.

Yu Hua said: "Mr. Lin, I think this place is very good, I will live here to save rent!"

Lin Weimin asked, "What about the family?"

"I am divorced!"

Lin Weimin glanced at Yu Hua unexpectedly, he didn't know much about Hua's marital status, he only knew that Yu Hua's wife was his colleague in the cultural center.

Before, Lin Weimin was curious about what his wife would do after Yu Hua came to Yanjing, but he came to Yanjing only after getting divorced.

Lin Weimin had heard from Mo Yan that Yu Hua was very close to a female classmate when he was in the Literature Research Institute.

These two things are absolutely unrelated.

But seeing that Yu Hua was still in a heartless state when talking about this matter, Lin Weimin didn't ask any more questions.

"Well, stay here. I'll ask the people in the agency to finish the formalities for you as soon as possible."

"Excuse me!"

After Lin Weimin left, Yu Hua found a rag and wiped the plaster in the dormitory.

After plastering, he went to the window.

He didn't pay attention when he was working. He didn't know when snowflakes were falling outside the window.

The profuse snowflakes blocked the elegance of Yanjing City, but Yu Hua knew that this was the Yanjing he had been thinking about.
