First: Are you in a hurry? For example, if you voted today, it's the 22nd, but you have to read the magazine at the beginning of next month (the impression is that Inner Mongolia TCM is bimonthly), that is, hurry up, hurry up. In this way, on the basis of the original page fee, it may float around 800 yuan. Then you have to accept it, because you are in a hurry.
Second: Do you contribute directly to the magazine or do you operate through some institutions or agents that are inextricably linked with the magazine? If you vote directly by yourself, it will be very expensive without urgent announcement. There are also journal of traditional chinese medicine and magazines of this level in China, but it seems that they don't have such a high page fee. If you go through the organization, what people want to earn is actually a scalper, that is, if you give it money, it will guarantee to give it to you. But you give more. As far as I know, 20 1 year is about 1 1500, and now it is about 2k to 3k. Ordinary 1500 does not flush, which conforms to the asking price characteristics of institutions.
Third: Your article is 4000 words, which is basically version 1.5. In China, the average cost of a edition of Chinese medicine varies from 300 to 500, with a high price of 1000 yuan (for example, China Journal of Basic Medicine of Chinese Medicine), but the high price is basically Chinese medicine: Peking University's 2008 edition of Chinese core journals (.
Fourth: Suggestion: If you don't submit your articles through the organization, I suggest that you submit more magazines, which are at the same level as nmgzyy magazine, or the magazines are better, within 1K, or the magazines are better 1.5k, which should solve your problem. Of course, to be honest, 1500 is not very expensive, because magazines are different from typesetting. Some fonts are small, and one version of yours may be enough. Some fonts are relatively large, so two or three versions are needed. . . The benevolent man has different opinions.
Fifth: You can't submit more than one article now, but remember that people won't print it for you without paying the page fee. Some of them are very expensive, which is beyond our economic capacity. We can clearly tell the magazine that I can't afford your page fee, or you want 1500, but the company only reimburses 800, and so on. Express yourself politely, politely and euphemistically, so as to switch to other publications. Of course, if you have the ability, you can bargain with the editor. Some domestic magazines can be priced.
The above is for reference only. I'll answer your questions together, hoping to help you. Good luck. . . . .
