daily living together

But after Hou Ziyu followed the editor-in-chief into the work area, he suddenly became suspicious of the heroic words he had made in the morning, and his heart of being an editor began to waver.

The editor-in-chief said the first sentence to him earnestly: "Ziyu, the old saying is good, young and strong don't work hard, the boss is an editor."

Hou Ziyu thought about it hard, this seems to be different from the sentence he heard growing up...

The editor-in-chief took him all the way there, and showed him the editorial office's routine of draft press.

The working cubicle is spacious and looks quite bright, but it can be seen that all the editors are nervously contacting their authors, some typing on each other desperately on the Internet, leaving messages, and some even calling and threatening death up!

Needless to say, the deadline is approaching.

When the editor-in-chief took Hou Ziyu to the past, he happened to pass by a table. The editor over there was wearing thick glasses, with black eyes, holding a phone and saying: "... Teacher, how is the manuscript you promised at the beginning of the month? ? Today is the 29th, and the deadline is before 12 o'clock this evening, you should remember?"

The author's response was loud and sincere: "Remember, remember! I'm on my way to deliver manuscripts to you now, oops, my computer is broken, and the network cable is also broken, so I can only specially carve a USB flash drive. Bring it to you..."

The editor said indifferently: "Is your wifi broken too?"

Author: "Ah yes."

The editor asked again: "Does it include 4G traffic, and the mobile area is not well served? Is the base station affected?"

Author: "...Yes."

But the author is still working hard, he said to the editor: "Wait for me, I'm going to get in a taxi now." After the other side finished speaking, he seemed to put his phone away and urged the front, "Master driver, you Hurry up, it's in Building A of Yuehu Bay on Nanjing Road!"

The editor said coldly: "Teacher, but I am calling your landline."

author:"……"

Then the author teacher hung up the phone with a bang!

The editor was so angry that he made a series of deadly calls. After he got through this time, he was directly connected to the Internet cable. The two of them opened the communication software and stared at the author face to face to finish the manuscript.No makeup, no hair washing and other reasons can stop the editor. At this moment, she is not an editor, she is just a person who wants a manuscript!

If you can't get the manuscript, the editor has no meaning of survival, okay!

Spicy chicken author, ruin my youth, cost me money! !

Hou Ziyu was dumbfounded, and asked the editor-in-chief: "Is this my future work task?"

The editor-in-chief glanced at him and said, "Oh, of course not."

Hou Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then what is my main task?"

The editor-in-chief said kindly: "There will still be some proofreading and typesetting work. Serialization is better, like publishing. If you are the editor in charge, you are mainly responsible for the first review, and then submit it to the above for the second and third reviews. Only after that can the project be established. At this time, you can discuss the contract with the author or the company, and only after the contract is completed can you do some publicity and other things."

Hou Ziyu recorded carefully.

The editor-in-chief said: "You have to be responsible for arranging the cover, title, etc. After the title is decided, you can apply for the topic selection. The review of the ISBN is slow, and it is very difficult for the author to revise the text." She paused, emphasizing the last sentence To Hou Ziyu: "So you have to urge the author at least three months in advance, and some even have to watch her for half a year."

Hou Ziyu blinked: "Huh? It's been so long."

The editor-in-chief nodded and said, "Yes, so your daily work of proofreading and reviewing accounts for about 20%, and the remaining 80% is just like the editor just now, urging authors to submit manuscripts." She patted Hou Ziyu on the shoulder , said earnestly, "You have to know that sometimes what you actually get in your hands may not be real. You must read the last punctuation mark and check the manuscript with your own eyes after the author in charge sends the manuscript. Do you know that this manuscript is truly finished after it is passed?"

Hou Ziyu looked terrified, isn't this still the main job of pressuring for manuscripts!

The editor-in-chief looked out the window and sighed: "In our business, we have to fight wits and courage with the author."

Hou Ziyu waited for a while, but didn't see her continue to speak the second half of the sentence, so he tried to add: "It's a lot of fun?"

The editor-in-chief patted his head, stared at him with a look of "this kid is so stupid and innocent", and comforted him, "Just as long as you feel happy."

Hou Ziyu was trembling, and now he was a little scared.He misses his family's author, Su Yueyue of their family is really a little cookie, she only writes more every day, and never pays too much!
