Legends of Ancient and Modern have been published for more than 20 years, and have always adhered to the publishing purposes of "China style, national style, popular consciousness, spirit of the times" and "Legends but not bizarre, popular but not vulgar", and established a series of publications such as traditional edition, story edition and martial arts edition. The current circulation of the story version has exceeded 250,000.

In order to further run the legendary stories of ancient and modern times and dedicate more excellent stories to readers, this magazine is now openly soliciting contributions for literary friends:

Golden List Challenge: In the first half of the month, the Golden List Challenge column implemented the "Golden List Story Challenge"-it is planned to launch three short stories in each issue as the defeated works of the Golden List Challenge. The work requires highlighting the "strangeness, affection and interest" characteristics of the story version, and excavating the beauty of human nature and human feelings. The subject matter is not limited, and the length is within 1000 words. (3-4P)

Each issue of the Golden List Challenge works consists of readers' short message voting, readers' evaluation form voting and editor voting, resulting in a "Golden List Story". The remuneration for each golden story is 1000 yuan/thousand words, and the finalist is 300 yuan/thousand words. If you become a champion for two consecutive times, the remuneration will be increased to 1 100 yuan/thousand words; If you become a champion for three consecutive periods, your remuneration will be increased by 1.200 yuan per thousand words (the following will be increased by 1.000 yuan per period). ...

In the second half of the month, the "Golden Story Solitaire Challenge" will be implemented-on the basis of 2004, we will continue to take the road of "Story Solitaire". A story leader is launched every month, and the works of story solitaire are publicly collected through websites and forums. The length is within 1000 words. (5P)

In each issue of Story Solitaire, a Golden Story Tail is produced by readers' short message voting, readers' evaluation form voting and editing voting, with a basic remuneration of 300 yuan/Thousand Words and a bonus of 500 yuan; 300 yuan/Thousand Words as the finalist.

China's New Legend: For a long time, the column "Wonders of Urban and Rural Areas" has given readers and authors the impression that the column seems to pay more attention to the stories that happened in towns or villages, and the overall feeling of the column is not modern and divorced from urban life. The adjusted Legend of New China will strengthen the injection of modern elements in the column, reduce the original strong local flavor, and replace it with a more atmospheric and distinctive Legend of New China. Taking the novelty and legend of story works as the breakthrough point, it echoes the slogan of "China's most legendary new story reader" in ancient and modern legendary editions.

General requirements: Based on Legend, highlight the characteristics of modern life, advocate the publication of excellent story works with the characteristics of the current era and reflecting the new concept and life of our people. This column focuses on urban life, which can involve urban fright, funny life, network experience, surfing in the sea, embarrassing moments, officialdom stories, street legends and so on. In order to meet the needs of some readers, we can also publish some modern and innovative country stories ... 5-7 stories per issue, 16-20p.

"Youth Cool Club": No longer just stick to the viewpoint of campus stories, but expand the reader level of this column to the whole reader group with "youth complex". Column requirements: explore new perspectives, advocate new ideas, and try to grasp youth, experience growth and meet romance with readers through the works of "Youth Cool Club". Advocate writing stories from the perspective of young people, pay attention to the inner world and emotional experience of young people, and increase the youthfulness and modernity of publications. It mainly publishes the growth stories and emotional stories of young people today. 2-3 articles per issue, 6- 10p.

Romance on earth: refine the level of romance stories, re-classify too broad categories such as affection, friendship and love, and develop stories such as affection, love, hate and interest in depth. Vigorously explore two emotional stories, "Laughing with tears" and "Laughing with tears", and strive to achieve wonderful and unforgettable effects on the premise of ensuring the good-looking story. 2-3 articles per issue, 6-8 pence.

Part-time story: Break through the current situation that the original part-time story is only limited to "wage earners looking for jobs" and bring elements such as "white-collar work story", "entrepreneurial story", "workplace trap", "office romance", "fringe work story", "foreigners also work" and "China people are overseas" into the field of vision. It is not only "telling stories", but also hopes to achieve the effect of comforting the hearts of migrant workers and expressing their voices. 65438+ 0-2 articles per issue, 4-6p.

Fantasy: Break the current framework of "aliens", "science fiction" and "ghosts" and put forward the slogan of "imagination has no limit" to guide the story writer to get inspiration from unexpected events in real life and open up imagination space. It can include sub-columns such as "absurd stories" and "new stories", and the content of the columns can be enriched with strange imagination and twists and turns. 65438+ 0-2 articles per issue, 4-8p.

Thriller moment: This year's thriller suspense story has made some useful explorations for the column innovation of the story version, and also catered to the needs of some readers. According to the relevant national publishing regulations, we plan to fine-tune the positioning of this column on the basis of 2004. On the premise of "not stepping on the line", play the card of "psychological terror" and firmly grasp the reader's eye with thrilling and tortuous suspense reasoning stories and thrilling detection stories. 65438+ 0 articles per issue, 3-5p.

Pocket Story: While retaining the "spicy" flavor of satirical stories, increase the contribution of humorous stories and philosophical stories. I believe that the overall quality of pocket stories will be improved in 2005, driven by the innovation and transformation of the "Golden Challenge". 5-7 articles per issue, 5-7 pence.

Folk novelty collection: break the tendency of single theme and similar routines in this column, control the number of manuscripts of "strange people and strange things", and further enrich this column with frontier, rivers and lakes, legends, love stories, courts, wars, Wulin, ghosts and foxes, history and other elements. Absorb the elements of "joke" and "humor", shorten the length of the story, change the old face of this column with long story and plain narrative, and make the "old" story easy to read. 3-4 articles per issue, 10- 12p.

Overseas anecdotes: through the window of overseas life, I pay attention to the humanity and beauty of western society and tend to write about the fate of little people. The story should be legendary, the plot should be wonderful, and the words should be fluent, avoiding novel structure and Europeanized language. It is not recommended to write about murder and violence, and less about inheritance murder. Welcome originality. Where a work is adapted or compiled, the source must be indicated and the original work must be provided. About 3000 words is appropriate.

Go your own way: encourage readers to contribute, be easy to understand, and tell personal stories in three or five hundred words. With a relaxed and interesting tone. 2P per issue. About three articles.

Surprise: As the last work of this magazine, we should consciously intensify the planning of novellas, and communicate and discuss with story writers who have the strength to create novellas on social focus, hot spots, freezing point and other issues. The story is required to be novel in theme, closely related to the pulse of the times, reflecting profound and significant social themes, with tense and tortuous plot, touching emotions, full of suspense and ups and downs. The length is about 10000.
