Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 174: Selection of Gold Medal Writers

"Dear Mr. Wall, it's time to select gold medal writers again. Which writer do you recommend to participate in the selection?"

Wall was reading the newspaper in his seat when suddenly his colleague came over and asked.

When Wall heard it, he remembered that it was time for Time to select gold medalists.

Every four years, Time Magazine selects a gold medal writer, a silver medal writer, and a bronze medal writer. Gold medal writers mainly refer to people who have made great contributions to Time Magazine, such as popularity or sales.

In addition to a cash prize of 50,000 pounds, the winners can also receive a gold medal writer's trophy. Of course, the issue of honor is most important to many writers. After all, to become the title of a gold medal writer in a prestigious newspaper, that is a representative of strength + talent.

This is an award set up by Paul Lawson, the founder of Time Magazine, before his death. The purpose is to inspire and attract more outstanding writers to contribute to Time Magazine. After all, he deeply knows that a good writer has a huge influence on a newspaper. It is with the encouragement of Paul Lawson's award that Time Magazine can reach its present position.

When Wall heard this, he said: "I think it should be Kevin. Although he has published articles in newspapers for less than a year, the popularity and sales he has brought to our newspapers are obvious to all. So, I think this time. I would recommend him as a gold medal writer."

"Okay, then I will write Kevin's name."

Wall's colleague was responsible for counting the writers recommended by each editor, so after hearing Wall's recommendation list, he turned around and asked other colleagues.

The selection process for gold medal writers is that each editor recommends a writer quota, and then puts them on the Internet. In addition to allowing readers to vote, the leader of the newspaper has to go to the final review. and so. Colleagues in charge of this matter will count the list every year.

Under normal circumstances, the writers recommended by editors are writers who have published articles in Time Magazine for a long time and have a stable readership. Such as Bogut and others before.

But Wall feels that Kevin has since published an article in Time Magazine. Let "Time" enter the minds of many readers, and received a lot of praise. and so. Although Kevin did not publish many articles in this newspaper, the time was not very long. But he still recommends it.

Wall felt it necessary to tell Kevin about this. After all, after he recommended it, the readers had to vote in the end. Only those who voted the most had the chance to win the title of Gold Medal Writer.

So after a cup of tea, Wall called Kevin and told him about the election of the gold medal writer.

"What? Mr. Wall. You said you recommended me to be selected as the "Time Magazine" gold medal writer?" Kevin said in surprise.

"Yes, since you opened a column and wrote articles in our newspapers and periodicals, you have brought a lot of sales and readers to our newspapers. I think such contributions can be used to select gold medal writers." Mr. Wall said.

"But as far as I know, not everyone is eligible for the title of your gold medal writer. This must be a writer who has published articles in newspapers and periodicals for a long time and has received certain praise. Although I have received a lot of praise, I publish in your newspaper The article is not long."

Kevin has read the selection news of "Time Magazine" gold medal writers, so he has some understanding of some situations.

"Don't worry, there are exceptions to everything. Besides, with your current grades. Who is more suitable to be a gold medal writer than you."

"but…."

"Dear Kevin, stop it. Trust me, you can be called a gold medalist. You are the best."

This is the confidence Kevin once told him. Now Wall conveyed this belief back to Kevin.

"Okay, thank you for taking me seriously."

"Well, I will notify you as soon as the voting starts. I believe your readers will help you become the highest voter."

This is also the reason why Wall decided to tell Kevin the news in advance, because he believes that Kevin's huge readership will be willing to register for him as a member of Time Magazine, or spend money to vote for Kevin. In this way, it also helped Time Magazine gain a lot of popularity.

But when Wall just hung up with Kevin, Lavin Dorf, the vice president of Time Magazine, called him over.

Lavin Dorf is responsible for the selection of this gold medal writer, when the subordinates took up the list of writers recommended by each editor. He looked at it roughly. When he saw that Wall recommended Kevin's name, he curiously asked Wall to come in.

"Hi. Dear Mr. Lavin Dorf, it is said that you called me?" Wall said after knocking on the door.

"Yes. Come in. I have a question for you to answer." Ravendorf said to Wall.

So Wall walked into Ravendorf's office and sat down.

"I don't know if Lavin Dorf has any questions? Is it about me recommending Kevin as the gold medal writer this time?"

Wall already had a foreboding that Raven Dorf asked himself to come in for this, so he asked in advance.

"Yes, our newspapers and magazines have always selected this gold medal writer based on the criteria that they have contributed to the newspapers and published articles for a long time in the newspapers. However, Kevin only started to publish articles in our newspapers in the past few months~www.NovelMTL .com~ I am afraid that this requirement cannot be met." Lavin Dorf said his thoughts.

"Dear Mr. Lavin Dorf, I know this rule naturally. Although Kevin has not published articles in our newspapers for a long time, his articles have won us a lot of readers and sales. And he wrote " "Ode to the Nightingale" has also ushered in the historical attention of our newspapers. I think with these, he can get the title of gold medal writer." Wall explained.

Raven Dorf seemed to feel somewhat reasonable after hearing Wall's explanation. After all, he also knows that the sales of newspapers and periodicals have been at their peak recently. And all these results are also because Kevin opened a column, which attracted many readers.

Lavin Dorf thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, then. Let Kevin be promoted. As for whether he can be selected in the end, it depends on the readers' votes."

"Of course, everything is left to the reader to weigh. This is the purpose of our newspaper. Oh, thank you Mr. Lavin Dorf."

When Wall heard that Raven Dorf finally agreed with his point of view, his face was also full of smiles. After all, he believes that as long as Kevin can be selected, it will be very easy to become a gold medal writer. (To be continued)
