1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 712: This girl treats us like silver

Within a few days after the press conference, the news about the Youth Tiger Book Series became the focus of many domestic media reports, and soon set off a "youth whirlwind" in the domestic literary circle and young readers.

Not to mention the complicated feelings of love and hate in the literary world towards the Buhuhu series.

Speaking only of young readers, high school students and college students do not account for a large proportion of readers in the field of pure literature, but this is a group that cannot be ignored.

The wave of hazy poetry in the 80s originated from the educated youth groups and campuses. Although today's college students are no longer the proud ones, this group still has a strong social influence.

The Youth Buhu Book Series targets readers under the age of 30, and the author is required to be under the age of 24, which is equivalent to stuck in a fixed age group.

It’s impossible for an elementary school student to write a novel, right?

After all, Yuxiu's situation was special, and Buhuhushu only discovered that one in one year.

There is a high probability that the future selected works of Youth Buhu will be written by authors in the age range of 18 to 24 years old. College students and high school students will definitely be the main force.

There is no word limit, and as long as the novel is selected into the Qingnian Buhu series, you can get a sky-high royalties of RMB 50.

What literary lover can resist such a temptation?

In just a few days, the news about the call for essays for the Qingchun Buhu series spread throughout the country's colleges and universities and high school campuses, making young people in the school who usually dream of literature go crazy.

The call for essays for the Youth Buhu Book Series was launched, which made countless students go crazy, and the editors of the Buhu Series editorial team were going crazy.

In the past year, they have been reviewing manuscripts day and night, not daring to take them off when they are on vacation, and not daring to read them when they are sick. There is a pile of manuscripts in the office, and the agency is actually planning to launch another Youth Bulletin Series.

Is this going to bring us to death?

This girl treats us like silver!
Before anyone could protest, a notice came out from the press. In order to solicit essays for the Qingn Buhu series, the press would transfer manpower from the Buhu series editorial team and Tongwen Press to form a new Qingchun Buhu series editorial team.

This news made the editors of the Buhu Book Series editorial team, who were a little angry, feel a little better, but everyone thought about it carefully.

No, by removing people from our Buhu Book Series editorial team, we have fewer people. Doesn’t that mean the workload is increased in disguise?
Once again, the angry crowd surrounded Gao Xianjun, the deputy leader of the editorial team, demanding an explanation. Gao Xianjun was also helpless. I am the deputy leader, what can I do?
He was forced by everyone to come to Lin Weimin's office, "Chief Editor, everyone would like to ask when the editorial team will be replenished after the people are removed?"

Lin Weimin saw Gao Xianjun's helplessness and said bluntly: "The current manpower in the agency is not sufficient, and each editorial office cannot spare people. In July, a new batch of university students will arrive. This year, the agency applied for a few more. Hey, let everyone work hard during this period and overcome it."

After getting Lin Weimin's answer, no matter what, Gao Xianjun was able to do the job.

When I came back and explained the situation, everyone was talking about it and they were not very satisfied with the club's decision.

There are still four months left until July. Besides, what do new college students know?
Don't they have to hand it over hand in hand?Not only is it not helpful, it also increases their workload.

This group of people became more and more enthusiastic as they talked, and planned to go to Lin Weimin to have another talk.

"All stop!"

Gao Xianjun shouted, and everyone immediately stopped and looked at Gao Xianjun.

"I've told you that the staff in the club are tight right now, and those who come in July will be given priority. Don't you understand?

I don’t even like to say, look at what I have given you this year!

Who doesn’t have a hard job?Who is not tired?

You guys say you work overtime just to light the lamp and boil the oil, but others don’t work overtime?

Besides, has the company treated you badly?
You can honestly say, is there any department in the Manguo Literary Society with higher subsidies and bonuses than our temporary editorial team?

Last year, which one of you took less than 8000 yuan?How much money do colleagues in the company get?

There is also a family building that will be built soon and will be completed next year. It costs two to three hundred yuan per square meter. Which JZ unit has such a price for building a house?

Isn’t the club good enough for you?Is this how you repay the club? "

Gao Xianjun has always been an honest person in the company, but being honest does not mean that he has no temper. He was able to take the position of director of the editorial office at a young age, and was entrusted by Lin Weimin with the important task of deputy leader of the editorial team of the Buhu Series, which made him angry. It has its own majesty.

Everyone in the editorial team was scolded by him, and the arrogant and arrogant people just disappeared, and they all looked ashamed.

Although Gao Xianjun's tone was not good, what he said was correct.

The workload of this group of editors in the editorial team has been heavy in the past year, but the effort and reward are matched.

It is no secret within the Chinese Literature Society that the editor of Buhuhu Series has a high income. His monthly comprehensive income is 800 yuan. Looking at today's Yanjing, he can already reach the golden collar level.

When they thought about being allocated a house next year, everyone's momentum weakened again.

"Go back to work. How many manuscripts can you review during this time when there is trouble!"

Gao Xianjun scolded again, and everyone reluctantly returned to their respective posts.

After suppressing the dissatisfaction with the work within the editorial team, Gao Xianjun left the office.

The voice he made in the office just now alarmed several people in the surrounding offices.

At this time, several old editors in the foreign language room were also chatting.

"These people are not satisfied. How can we earn seven to eight hundred a month? When we were young, there were no subsidies or bonuses! It was all voluntary labor."

"You're talking nonsense. What's wrong with not getting paid?"

"With that little salary, the family will have nothing left after eating for a month."

"That's true. In the past, the income was low, and eating was the most important thing. Now it's different. The income is high and the materials are abundant." "So these people are not satisfied. They make hundreds of dollars a month and still make trouble. They don't want to Go ahead and do it!”

"Come on, with your body type, you can't wait until your fuel is exhausted in a month?"

The editorial team of Buhuhu Series has a high income, which is recognized within the Chinese Literature Society, but everyone also knows the hard work of the editorial team.

"Hehe, that's all I'm saying. Besides, our current workload is not easy!"

Before the establishment of the editorial team of the Buhu Book Series, the editors of the Foreign Languages ​​Department were the busiest group of people in the Chinese Literature Society. After all, they were required to be responsible for most of the translation, review, and editing of the World Literature Masterpiece Library.

Although several veteran editors say that the editors of the Buhu Book Series have high salaries, in fact their salaries are not low either.

Since the Chinese Language Press implemented the editorial office performance appraisal system, everyone’s salary income is directly linked to labor intensity and work results. The foreign language office has had heavy tasks in the past two years, and the comprehensive monthly income of senior editors is generally more than 500 yuan.

After leaving the temporary office of the Buhu Book Series editorial team, Gao Xianjun went downstairs to smoke, and happened to meet Li Xin who was going downstairs to smoke.

The two were two of the five college students who entered the Chinese Literature Society at the same time. They were both promoted to the position of director of the editorial office by the Chinese Literature Society when they were in their early thirties, and they had a close friendship over the years.

"What's wrong? I heard that the editorial team is restless again?" Li Xin asked with a smile.

Gao Xianjun waved his hand, as if he didn't want to mention it more, "There will be trouble every one or two months, I'm used to it."

"It's normal to have too much pressure at work, and everyone needs a channel to vent."

"Is such a high salary for nothing?" Gao Xianjun muttered.

"High wages can't relieve negative emotions!" Li Xin gave Gao Xianjun a cigarette and said, "You are still in charge of the youth cloth tiger this time, and you are very busy again!"

Gao Xianjun sighed, half sad and half happy, "Yes!"

"Don't be so frustrated, it's because the editor-in-chief respects you!"

"Come on, I can't respect you no matter how much I respect you. How about we change places?" Gao Xianjun said.

Li Xin chuckled, but said nothing.

It was impossible to change, and he knew it even if he didn't tell Gao Xianjun.

Even though Li Xin is only the vice president of Tongwen News Agency, his rank is only slightly better than that of the editorial director of China Literature News Agency.

But in fact, Lin Weimin is less and less involved in Tongwen Society's affairs. Li Xin, the vice president, is actually the manager of Tongwen Society.

There are no constraints at work, and Li Xin is like a fish in water at Tongwen News.

Moreover, maybe Lin Weimin will be relieved of his responsibility as president of Tongwen Society at some point, and Li Xin will be the most legitimate successor, even if he is given the vice president of Tongwen Society.

"Don't be dissatisfied. The Buhu Book Series accounts for more than one-third of the book sales in the club. You, the deputy leader of the editorial team, have more people than I do in one publishing house." Li Xin said.

Gao Xianjun blew out a puff of smoke and watched the smoke rise, "Yeah, there's nothing to be dissatisfied about. Five years ago, how could I have dared to think about today's life!"

"By the way, have you seen the construction drawings of the family building?" Li Xin suddenly asked in a low voice.

"No. How can I see that thing?"

"Look for Mr. Zhang from the archives office. He has one on file. I took a look at the construction drawings. Building No. 125 is in the best location. It faces south and faces north. It has a [-]-square-meter apartment. It's really amazing! There are four bedrooms. There is a dining room, living room, bathroom, and a utility room, it’s a bright space!”

"There are so many people in your household?" Gao Xianjun said in surprise.

Although the two are familiar with each other, they have never communicated in this regard.

"Well, I didn't separate our family after I got married. Counting my parents and my son, there are exactly five people in my family, hehe!"

When Li Xin mentioned this matter, he felt an indescribable sense of pride.

"It's better that you have a larger population. We only have three people in our household, so we can only buy 75 square meters."

"75 square meters is not bad with three bedrooms. It is enough for your family of three. The key is to choose a good floor and a good orientation. If you believe me, choose Building [-]."

"I heard that Building 3 also has 75 square meters, right?"

"You want to buy Building 3? Why buy it with an east-west orientation?" Li Xin asked confused.

"It's so cheap! If you choose the fifth floor, it will be more than 2000 cheaper."

"Just over 2000, your salary for two or three months." Li Xin advised.

"The living conditions are the same. Our home can't be compared to yours."

Li Xin and his wife are a dual-income family, and both parents are retired.

Gao Xianjun's wife doesn't work, so he works at home. Although his income is high, saving money is not easy.

In other words, the salary package of the Chinese Literature Society has been raised in the past three or four years, otherwise he would not even dare to think about buying a house.

After hearing Gao Xianjun's words, Li Xin did not persuade him again.

Every family has its cupboard.
