While there are some gains, overall, it's frustrating.
Lin Hai sighed, thinking that he could easily do this.
But who knows that high manuscript fees can't be tempted, and it can't be tempted to become famous quickly, then there is really no way.
At this time, colleagues all gathered around again.
They all heard what Lin Hai had just called, and of course they knew the result.
It didn't work out?
Colleagues were also very surprised.
At the same time, most colleagues are very regretful, and a small number of colleagues secretly rejoice.
"It's the first time I've met an author who can't be tempted by high manuscript fees and fame. What is his relationship with that childhood magazine? Could it be that he got into the shares? Or maybe he's actually the owner of a childhood magazine?
"In my opinion, the reason is actually very simple. That's because he wrote "Tortoise and Hare Race" purely by accident, and he knew that he would not be able to write the same quality work next. Even the slightly worse quality can't be written. That's why they didn't dare to accept our invitation. Think about it, if he accepts our invitation and the work he sends is rejected by us, how faceless will he be?
"This..."
After hearing this statement, many people nodded their heads after thinking about it.
It feels like it's really possible that that's the reason.
"I said, how can there be an author who doesn't like high manuscript fees and fame? So that's what happened. In this way, the Caotang resident is just an ordinary author.
"Saying that I don't like to be famous is just a reason I have to find in order not to lose face."
"It was just by chance that I wrote 'Tortoise and Hare Race', so we didn't need to dig him at all. He was also self-aware and did not accept our invitation.
"He is not self-aware, but he knows that we have high requirements for the manuscript, and we are afraid of losing face because we are rejected, so he does not dare to accept the invitation."
"Too."
Hearing
many colleagues say this, Lin Hai frowned slightly.
Is it really possible that this is the case?
Is a top-quality work like "Tortoise and Rabbit Race" really something that an ordinary author can write "by chance"?
If it is just an average high-quality work, then it is indeed possible for ordinary authors to write it by accident.
But "Tortoise and Rabbit Race" such a top-quality work, Lin Hai does not think that an ordinary author can write it by chance.
Don't say that by chance, you just accidentally ten or a hundred, and it can't be written.
Therefore, Lin Hai does not agree with this statement of many colleagues.
Forget it, don't care about this, go and tell the editor-in-chief the results first.
So, Lin Hai knocked on the office door of the editor-in-chief Zeng Yihui again, and then said the result.
Zeng Yihui was also extremely surprised after hearing this, but he did not succeed?
"Didn't you explain to him that the influence of our magazine is far greater than the influence of childhood magazine? Published in our magazine, he will quickly gain fame and become a well-known author. Zeng Yihui said.
"I clarified." Lin Haidao, "But the other party said that he is not famous, he actually does not like to be famous." Editor-in-chief, do you really mean that there will be people who are not interested in being famous? "
You're not even interested in being famous?
Zeng Yihui was also very surprised.
However
After a while, Zeng Yihui nodded slowly, "Although most people want to be famous, not everyone wants to be famous after all. Someone doesn't like to be famous, and it's normal.
Lin Hai also nodded slowly and said, "He is the first person I have met who is not interested in being famous, and he is also the first person who can't be tempted with a high manuscript fee."
Zeng Yihui smiled slightly, and said, "Perhaps it is precisely because he has such a mentality that he can write such high-quality fables when his cooking skills are very amazing, and at the same time, he is also very strong in writing poetry."
Lin Hai said, "Maybe it is." However, the editor-in-chief, even high manuscript fees and fame can't tempt him, I really can't do anything. How about you try it yourself? Your eloquence is better than mine, and you may not be able to move him. Zeng
Yihui originally planned that if Lin Hai couldn't figure it out, he would go out himself.
But now, he has a feeling that he can't do it himself.
Since this is the case, there is no need to disturb the other party anymore, so as not to cause the other party's disgust.
Moreover, the other party still has leeway. Although there is no chance to cooperate now, there should be opportunities to cooperate in the future.
If you arouse the disgust of the other party now, you may not even have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.
Therefore, Zeng Yihui said: "According to your statement, even if I personally take action, there is almost no possibility of success. Therefore, I will not make a move, so as not to arouse the disgust of the other party. Since he now leaves room for possible cooperation in the future, then we will wait quietly for the opportunity to come. After a while, you can contact him again.
Lin Hai nodded and said "good", then hesitated, and then said: "Editor-in-chief, some colleagues said that the reason why the other party did not accept our invitation was because the other party wrote "Tortoise and Rabbit Race" just by accident, and he couldn't write the same quality or slightly worse quality work next. I was afraid that after accepting our invitation, the works sent over would be rejected by us and lose face. Do you say there is such a possibility?
Zeng Yihui said: "Of course, this possibility is indeed there. I don't think so, though. A top-quality work like "Tortoise and Hare Race" is not something that can be obtained by chance. Perhaps, it is indeed difficult for the grass hall residents to write works of the same quality, but it is certainly no problem to write works of slightly worse quality.
Lin Hai was overjoyed after hearing this, and said: "Editor-in-chief, I also think so. Even I think that the priests of the grass hall can write works of the same quality.
Zeng Yihui nodded and said, "I hope so." In short, we must pay close attention to "Childhood" next.
Lin Hai nodded, "In the next issue, every new issue of "Childhood", I asked my friend in Huanshui to help buy a copy and send it over.
Zeng Yihui said, "Yes, that's it.
Lin Hai sighed again: "Editor-in-chief, it's a pity that I couldn't dig up the works of the Caotang residents this time!"
Zeng Yihui smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Lin, you have done a very good job this time. Although we have not dug up the works of the grass hall priest for the time being, we can contact him at any time. Moreover, it also showed him the sincerity of our magazine. He also promised to prioritize cooperation with us in the future. That's enough.
After hearing Zeng Yihui say this, Lin Hai's mood instantly improved a lot, and he said happily: "Thank you, editor-in-chief!"
Zeng Yihui smiled again, "Good job!"
"Okay, editor-in-chief."
Lin Hai was in a happy mood.
