		<description><![CDATA[Lu Jinbo replies to manuscript submissions within a week.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Super-agent Lu Jinbo has the following submission information posted in the sidebar to his <a href="http://blog.sina.com.cn/lujinbo">blog</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Submission email address:</p>
<p>lujinbo@msn.com</p>
<p>QQ:288588</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<ol>
<li>Scope is restricted to literature. Target audience is ages 11-30.</li>
<li>Submission format: (a) author introduction, 300 characters; (b) synopsis, 500 characters; (c) sample chapters, 3000 characters (must include opening).</li>
<li>If you do not receive a reply within a week, your submission has not been accepted. Please forgive us for not replying to every submission. If we are interested in your synopsis and sample, I will contact you by email or phone to request additional chapters or the entire work.</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<p>Not replying with a rejection is a little iffy (did he hate it, or did it end up in his spam folder?), but the one-week turnaround is impressive, particularly for someone with Lu&#8217;s visibility and reputation for hefty advances.</p>
<p>Is Lu an agent or a publisher? In the US, agents tend to have far quicker response-times than  publishers, but the distinction between the two is not as clear in China. Lu&#8217;s got his own cultural company that has book number deals with a state-owned publisher, so it&#8217;s not like he&#8217;s going to have to shop around titles once he decides to take them on.</p>
