Half a cart of wheat straw is missing. We extensively use the term 'half a cart of wheat straw' without considering its appropriateness. When we call out this word, it doesn't contain any malice, we just feel that calling it makes us happy. If it weren't for this precious word in our team, life might have been as dull and boring as the mountains in winter.
Although we call each other the nickname 'half a cart of wheat straw', the real 'half a cart of wheat straw' himself has long left the team.
Firstly, the compiler has considerable authority. This series of books was directly compiled by the China Modern Literature Museum, which organized the most authoritative research experts in the country to participate in the compilation, thus ensuring the academic quality of this series.
Secondly, the largest scale. This series is currently the largest collection of modern Chinese literary works in terms of variety. The 108 authors selected this time were all determined through repeated screening and analysis by experts and scholars. In addition to the mainstream writers we have always focused on in the past, they also took into account the works of many non mainstream writers who were previously overlooked but achieved high success and had their own unique characteristics. We believe that this is beneficial for readers to have a more objective and comprehensive understanding of modern Chinese literature.
Thirdly, the version is the most primitive. The selected works in this series are basically based on the first edition version of the work. As is well known, many well-known writers have made revisions to their representative works against their will during political movements.
Restoring the original appearance of these representative works is the preservation of the original materials of literary history, which will provide powerful assistance for studying the thoughts and creative paths of writers.
Fourthly, the editing and proofreading are more rigorous. This series of books is published with a meticulous approach to both binding and textual editing, ensuring that the books delivered to readers are qualified and worthy of collection.
