Chapter 542 Editor-in-Chief Zhang Comes Personally

The editor took the registration form and gave Xiaomei a thumbs up after reading it.

"You, Xiaomei, usually seem to have a bad temper, but I didn't expect you to be quite capable in doing things."

"With this address, I won't have to worry about finding anyone!"

The editor looked at the address several times, memorized it firmly, and then returned the registration book to Xiaomei.

"I'll go get him back right away!"

"Editor-in-chief, do you mean that the manuscript written by the female comrade just now was very good and was accepted?"

Xiaomei was also very happy when she thought of this possibility.

Although she couldn't write the manuscript, she was the one who sent it over.

Calculated this way, it almost means that her manuscript has been accepted. How could she not be happy?

"Yes, yes, the article is very well written, otherwise why would I be so anxious?"

The editor-in-chief ran out in a hurry while speaking.

When Jiang Wan left the magazine, she did not go back to her husband's home, but went to the small shop she opened with Li Shuping.

The store has been under renovation for some time now, and Li Shuping has been watching over it every day. Now the renovation is almost complete.

In fact, the store is doing the final finishing work and will be able to start work in a day or two.

Jiang Wan had just had his manuscript rejected and was feeling a little depressed.

But when I came over and saw Aunt Li’s smiling face, I felt that everything was not so bad.

Maybe she is not suitable for writing long novels, or maybe she is just unlucky.

But no matter what, her life now has changed dramatically compared to before.

She told herself that she had to look forward and her future would become brighter and brighter.

Jiang Wan and Li Shuping cleaned the house together, and it was already 5pm when she came back after finishing her work.

Jiang Wan worked for the whole afternoon. Although he was a little tired, he was in a good mood.

She would feel depressed whenever she thought about her submission being rejected.

But she didn't want to tell anyone about this, nor did she want to pass on her bad emotions to others.

So she adjusted her state before entering the door and tried hard to pretend to be very happy.

However, she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the house, she saw a strange bald man in the house.

"Uncle, aunt, who is this?"

"Is this probably your guest? If there's nothing else to do here, I'll go inside and take care of the kids first."

Jiang Wan was about to leave after saying this. She felt that the longer she stayed here, the more likely her emotional problems would be exposed.

Only by closing the door and hiding in your own private space can you release your emotions to your heart's content.

"Wanwan, wait a moment. This gentleman has come to see you specially."

"Come to my house? But I don't know him!"

Jiang Wan frowned in confusion, and Yun Zhilan quickly explained with a smile.

"Silly child, this is Editor-in-Chief Zhang!"

"Didn't you submit your manuscript to their magazine this afternoon? How come you forgot about them right after you came back?"

After Yun Zhilan's explanation, Jiang Wan finally knew the identity of the visitor.

"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Zhang."

Jiang Wan greeted him politely. She had already vaguely guessed the purpose of his visit, but she was not sure.

"Are you Jiang Wan, and are you also Sui Xin?"

"Did you deliver the manuscript this afternoon?"

"I am. It's me."

Jiang Wan answered all his questions with just a few words.

Editor-in-Chief Zhang was overjoyed after hearing this and stood up from the sofa excitedly.

"Hello, Sui Xin. Nice to meet you. I'm Chief Editor Zhang Huaide. From now on, you can just call me Chief Editor Zhang."

"Xiaomei sent your manuscript to me today, but I was too busy with work to read it."

"It was just a coincidence. I accidentally wet the envelope a little when I was drinking water, and I saw your pen name by chance."

"I thought it looked familiar, so I opened the envelope and took a look."

"I just took a few casual glances and was deeply attracted by the plot."

"Sui Xin, your article is very well-conceived and has a fast pace. After reading it, I can't stop."

"I read it all in one go and even forgot to come look for you right away. When I came to my senses, I found that you were gone."

"I got your address from Xiaomei, and I rushed here in a hurry, but I didn't expect you were not at home."

"I dropped all my work this afternoon just to talk to you about this article."

"I heard from Xiaomei that you wanted to talk to me alone about the follow-up direction of this long article? I wonder if I still have this opportunity now?"

Editor-in-Chief Zhang is very good at speaking. He explained the whole incident in just a few words.

He explained the purpose of his visit and expressed his importance to Jiang Wan.

Seeing that he came with sincerity, Jiang Wan naturally felt embarrassed to refuse.

Moreover, this long novel was a work she had been conceiving for a long time and was intended to be a transformational work.

Jiang Wan attached great importance to this article. Editor-in-Chief Zhang was indeed busy at the beginning, but now he was able to put down his work and come to the door in person, which was enough to show his sincerity.

"Of course. If you have time, Editor-in-Chief Zhang, please stay and come to my study to discuss this article in detail."

Jiang Wan took the initiative to invite, and Editor-in-Chief Zhang gladly agreed.

After arriving at the study, they sat down facing each other.

"Editor-in-Chief Zhang, what do you think of this article? Can it be published in your magazine?"

Jiang Wan started the topic with the simplest question.

"The article is very well written and attractive. Your writing style is also very good. The wording and sentence selection are very rigorous. It can be seen at a glance that you are a very serious author."

"Our magazine rarely accepts long articles, and every time we do, we are very rigorous."

"I came here this time because I want to know your subsequent plot and character settings. We need to have a good chat about these."

Editor-in-Chief Zhang first praised and then explained the actual situation. Jiang Wan nodded to show his understanding.

She took out the little notebook she had prepared in advance and showed it to Editor-in-Chief Zhang.

Jiang Wan expressed his thoughts bit by bit according to the prompts in the notebook.

Editor-in-Chief Zhang found that Jiang Wan’s subsequent plot was very compact and had a good sense of rhythm.

The only shortcoming is that there are some problems with the setting of one of the female supporting characters.

Editor-in-Chief Zhang waited for her to finish speaking before offering his own opinion.

Jiang Wan had thought that this article was good in every way, but there was one thing that made her uncomfortable.

She could feel it but couldn't catch it. That was why she personally delivered the manuscript to the editor's door this time. She wanted to meet the editor-in-chief and discuss the article in detail.

Now after talking in detail with Editor-in-Chief Zhang, she finally discovered where the problem lay.

"I know! I understand! There are indeed some issues with the setting of this female supporting role."

"I always felt something was strange, but I couldn't tell what was wrong."

"Thank you Editor-in-Chief Zhang for your reminder. I will revise it in detail later and try to make the whole article more perfect."

Jiang Wan humbly asked for advice and immediately understood.

As the editor-in-chief, what I like most is authors who are talented and willing to listen to advice.
