A healing writer? No, it's a depressing writer!

Chapter 6 So it’s a hidden gem, right?

In today's China, when it comes to the online literature industry, it is a three-way competition.

There are three major online literature websites, which are the leaders in the industry:

Xingtian Chinese website.

Xiange Chinese website.

Luchao Chinese website.

Behind these three major online literature websites stand three powerful capitals, and each has different characteristics.

Xingtian is a training base for talented people and potential newcomers. It has the most complete training process from novices to masters and enjoys an excellent reputation in the industry!
Xian Ge, which is mostly composed of veteran and powerful authors, is also known as the retirement home for great writers. It monopolizes nearly 60% of the great writers on the market and is a super popular writer!
Lu Chao, famous for its update speed and creative ideas, is a breeding ground for talented mid-level writers and a veritable paradise for tentacle monsters!
Since this is your first time writing online, you should be more humble and cautious.

As soon as Jiang Hai came up, he submitted his work to Xingtian Chinese Network, which is the so-called "new talent training base."

But who would have thought that the book he had prepared so carefully, which had more than a million readers in his previous life, "The Poor Ghost's Two Thousand Years", would be published after being voted in.

It was rejected directly?

"No." Jiang Hai couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the words "Not yet reached the signing standard" on the computer. "What the hell?"

“Is it so difficult to even pass a manuscript?”

Normally speaking, the level of literature in this world is much higher than that in the previous life.

That's more than an order of magnitude weaker.

But since the level of literature is not as good as in the previous life, why was it so popular in the previous life and was called a masterpiece of depression "The Poor Ghost's Up and Down Two Thousand Years"——

It was rejected by the editor in chief???
Jiang Hai, who didn't believe it, searched the website for the email addresses of several editors again, and then emailed the prepared manuscripts to them one by one in the internal submission format.

But the result is no exception.
Otherwise, it will fall into oblivion.

Or, you will simply receive a template reply:
[Your manuscript has not yet reached the contract standard, please continue to work hard~]

Jiang Hai reflected very seriously on why this situation occurred, and finally he came to a conclusion -

The wrong person.

You know, whether it is Xingtian or Xian Ge, or Lu Chao, these formal and large-scale novel websites——

Editors, they are divided into levels.

The editing levels can be roughly divided into:

Editor-in-chief - Chief Editor - Responsible Editor.

As a newcomer with no reputation, Jiang Hai immediately went to the editors-in-chief and chief editors of these websites.

Bang bang is a burst of fierce throwing.

The standards for internal submissions for these editors-in-chief and chief editors are already very strict.

Moreover, they all have their own talented writers and very rich author resources.

You are a newcomer, you have no fame, and you have no historical achievements.

Why would others give you their manuscripts?
Instead of expecting you to achieve results, it is better to sign some talented authors with achievements, or simply go and find those great writers to commission articles.

Aren’t the chances of these authors achieving success greater than for you as a newcomer?
After much thought, Jiang Hai finally locked his sights on the webpage, at the back of [Editor Contact Information]:

"It seems that I can only look for new editors who are short of manuscripts."

Yang Shuman is a new editor at Xingtian Novel Network.
She is a newcomer, but in fact she came to Xingtian Novel Network——

It's been a year and a half.

She is called an editor, but in fact, her daily work includes reviewing manuscripts and communicating with authors, and she is also responsible for -

Receiving and sending express deliveries, printing newspapers, filling out daily forms, ordering coffee and bringing meals to colleagues, and a series of other trivial tasks
"Shuman, please go downstairs and bring me a cup of iced Americano, please~"

"Shu Man, my package has arrived, go get it for me at the door~"

"Shuman, I have a table here. Please give it to the editor-in-chief after you finish the calculation~"

"Shu Man Shu Man."

"Okay, I'll go right away, wait a moment~~~"

After responding to requests from colleagues in the editorial department one by one, Yang Shuman began to process the documents in her hands at a rapid pace.

While chewing on a bun, she hurriedly began to put the documents in their place:
"This part is given to Editor-in-Chief Hao."

"This part is given to Deputy Editor-in-Chief Li."

"Who was assigned this part? Oh, never mind."

I was busy from morning to afternoon, and never had a break, not even time to eat.

Yang Shuman feels that the work of an editor is like her own life——

I'm busy every day, but I don't know what I'm busy with.

After a hard day, in the last half hour before the end of the get off work day, after finishing the tasks assigned by her leaders and colleagues, Yang Shuman finally had time to do her job as an editor.

Read and review manuscripts.

As a marginal person in the editorial department,
In fact, Yang Shuman didn't expect any decent manuscripts to appear in her submission mailbox, or any potential new authors to submit their works to her.

Because any submission that is even remotely acceptable
It had already been signed by the editor-in-chief and chief editor at the next higher level.

As for those manuscripts that the editor-in-chief does not like, the process will be passed to the responsible editor.
Any newcomer with the slightest potential will be signed by an editor at the same level as her.

As for the reason, there is nothing else -

Who said she was a marginal figure in the editorial department?
For manuscripts, she has to let others select them first, and only after they have selected them can it be her turn.

When eating, she has to let others eat first because she is often busy while others are eating.

As for getting off work?
In the year and a half since she joined Xingtian, she is almost always the last person to leave the editorial department every day.

He wakes up earlier than a chicken and goes to bed later than a dog.

But even so, even though she had worked so hard, in the one and a half years since she joined Xingtian.
She still hasn't signed a decent new author.

You said that even if she could produce a talented author with over ten thousand orders.

She might not have fallen to this point, becoming more than just a marginal figure in the company.

But in the past year or so since she joined the company, let alone the authors with 10,000 orders, even the writers with 1,000 orders who have achieved success under her -

That’s also very few!
The thought that in three months I would be fired from the company because of my poor performance for six consecutive months made me feel uneasy.

Yang Shuman couldn't help but wail in her heart:
"My life is so miserable~~~"

All my colleagues in the office have left.

But Yang Shuman's review work has not been completed yet.

She took a gulp of coffee that was as bitter as her life, and then cheered herself up like a chicken:
"come on!"

"come on!"

"come on!"

Forcing herself to be alert, Yang Shuman put on black-framed glasses and went straight to her email.

Quickly browse the remaining "internal submissions" in the mailbox that have been selected by colleagues.

In less than three minutes,

Yang Shuman was quickly eliminated from these "submissions".

She had a sad face, as if she had seen the scene of being kicked out of the company three months later because of the poorest performance:

“It’s so hard for me~~~”

Although Xingtian Chinese website claims to have eight million new authors, but——

Among these eight million new authors, not every one of them has the potential to be cultivated.

Since they are all newbies who have just entered the industry and know nothing.

Of course, as the front-line editors who deal with these newbie authors——

It is inevitable that you will encounter all kinds of weird writers who are difficult to describe in words.

Regardless of anything else, just looking at the titles of these submitted novels, Yang Shuman already felt as if her eyes were being irritated.

what--

[The author’s submission was rejected, he fell in love with the editor, and he criticized the editor]

[Ultra is back, and I swear I won’t be a son-in-law in this life! 】

[Xiyangyang vs. 300 Spartan Warriors! ]

[The unspeakable things about Red Wolf and Armor Hero]

They have been picked out by so many chief editors, chief editors, and responsible editors.

What could be normal in this?

Any manuscript that was moderately acceptable and normal would have already been signed by other editors. How could it be my turn?
Yang Shuman suppressed her physical discomfort and replied to the author of the manuscript [Author’s manuscript was rejected, fell in love with the editor, and slammed the editor] with the rejection message:
"Your manuscript has not yet reached the contract standard, please continue to work hard~"

Just when Yang Shuman felt extremely unwell and wanted to close her email and take a nap on the table.

The submission reminder bell sounds:

"Ding dong~"

"You have a new manuscript~"

Forcing herself to be alert, Yang Shuman grabbed the mouse and clicked on the email.

A novel titled "The Poor Ghost's Two Thousand Years" suddenly appeared before her eyes.
