Chapter 64 On Classics and Famous Articles

Chapter 64 On Classics and Famous Articles

After being in a trance for more than ten seconds, Han Jimei finally recovered.

She never expected that it would end like this...

The lady sold her beautiful long hair and bought a gold watch strap for the husband, and the husband sold his favorite gold watch to buy the long-awaited hair comb for the lady.

They sacrificed the most precious possessions of the family for each other, but the gifts they gave each other lost their original value at the same time.

This kind of ending is too cruel to say, but it is always dumbfounding——

And in such a humorous contradiction, the love between Mr. and Mrs. is vented on the paper, and it is vividly displayed!

It's a love that makes people yearn for it.

Han Jimi closed the magazine thoughtfully.

She suddenly thought:

Such a good story should have appeared in the tribe's literature section, just like Chu Kuang's "Artificial Beauty".

"Why did you miss Chu Kuang in the end?"

Obviously he chose our platform at the beginning.

A gleam flashed in Han Jimei's eyes, and he pressed the green button on the upper left corner of the desk: "The editor-in-chief will meet in five minutes."

Why has the tribe's literature section been tepid?

Because the quality of stories in the literature section is not as good as magazines on the market.

In the final analysis, the reason for thinking is that the tribe's literature section is not attractive enough for excellent writers!

How can I change this situation?

It's very simple, that is to grab the story, grab the author!

Excellent writers like Chu Kuang are worthy of being snatched by tribal literature. Han Jimei believes that he will eventually be able to impress outstanding writers like Chu Kuang.

With this in mind, Han Jimi started the editor-in-chief meeting.

One of the first questions she asked at the meeting was: "Why isn't tribal literature the first platform of choice for writers?"

This is actually the most important question.

The editor-in-chief on the right smiled: "Besides the fact that the literature section is relatively special as an online publishing platform, the most important reason is that we haven't paid the authors enough."

Writers also have to make a living.

Relying on the rewards from the online platform alone is not enough.

Han Jimei stood up, pressed her hands on the table, and lowered her body slightly: "I will apply for funding from the higher ups, do you know what to do?"

"Poach people!"

The editors understood.

Han Jimei smiled slightly: "I'm going to see your target list tonight. The number of writers in the first batch should not be less than 30. Let's play with one vote."

"It seems that we are going to compete with the major magazines."

The editor-in-chiefs smiled. They did not lack writer contacts. If they had enough funds, it would not be difficult to find excellent writers.

"very good."

Han Jimei straightened her waist: "It seems that you all have targets to be poached. I will recommend someone to your poaching list first."

"who?"

"Chu crazy."

The editors were stunned, thinking that Han Jimei had made a mistake: "This is probably not a famous short story writer, he is writing youth fantasy novels, last time "Artificial Beauty" was just a small short story he created occasionally, Not bad though...”

"Then read this."

Han Jimei put "Interesting Reading" on the table, and then glanced at everyone: "It's up to you to decide who you want to find, but Chu Kuang is the first target I want to fight for."

...

As the first article on the cover of the magazine, "Maggie's Gift" was not only noticed by Han Jimei, but many magazine buyers also read this story one after another.

Nearly a week later, a thorough discussion broke out online.

The first platform where the heated discussion is concentrated is the message board of the official website of the Yinlan Shuku magazine section.

The function of this message board is similar to that of a novel forum.

"The quality of this issue of the magazine is very high, especially "Maggie's Gift". I really like it and it is very touching."

"It is indeed the key recommendation on the cover, and it did not disappoint!"

"It's been a long time since I saw such a good story. "The Gift of the Magi" is very good."

"During the Chinese New Year, I was fortunate enough to read "Man-made Beauty" on the tribe. I remembered a writer named Chu Kuang. I didn't expect to read his new work so soon. It was as wonderful as ever, and I even thought it was better than the previous one. "

"Such a good short story was actually written by Chu Kuang..."

"After checking Chu Kuang's information, I realized that this is a novelist who writes about youth fantasy. It's so rare."

"As a reader who loves both youth fantasy and short stories, seeing Chu Kuang's works in two fields at the same time, the experience is really amazing, and I have become his fan."

"..."

Soon the wave of discussion began to spread, and "The Gift of the Magi" was unsurprisingly widely welcomed.

The direct result of this is that the sales volume of the latest issue of "Fun Reading" in the first week is 50% higher than that of the previous issue!

Perhaps the follow-up sales of "Fun Reading" this month are also worth looking forward to.

As for the pseudonym Chu Kuang, it was the first time that it entered the field of vision of short story lovers.

Even some writers in the field of short stories secretly remembered the pseudonym Chu Kuang through "Maggie's Gift".

At this time, Chu Kuang was beginning to become famous in the circle of short stories.

Some people say, didn't Chu Kuang write "Artificial Beauty" before?

That's true, but at that time, Chu Kuang was still labeled as a youth fantasy writer, and the title of "Net King" covered the excellence of that short work to a certain extent——

This happens when a certain identity shines brighter.

So it wasn't until Chu Kuang wrote short stories for the second time that everyone really realized:

It turns out that Chu Kuang still has such a talent.

However, it is undeniable that Chu Kuang is a newcomer no matter in the field of short stories or youth fantasy.

He still has a long way to go.

And the crowd who are looking forward to this is gradually expanding.

Some people might say, isn't "The Gift of the Magi" the most famous short story on earth, only to end up with a casual shock from the readers?

This kind of taken-for-granted view is also understandable.

But those who say this must first think about how difficult it is to write a novel that shocks readers, and know that it is actually very difficult to reach the sky in one step in artistic creation in reality.

In fact.

Countless classics that are regarded as masterpieces by later generations can only cause temporary discussions when they are just released. When you hear that a certain work is a world-class masterpiece, you must first think about how long it has been since the work was officially released— —

There are too few contemporary conferred gods.

Unless they had high influence at the time.

More often, time brews classics.

When these classics were first published, the creators actually only had the potential to become gods. Before they could truly become gods, they might be one Nobel recognition away, or many classics of the same level.

Or... just one death away.
