"Huh? Why?"
Frightened by Fujii Shunsuke's attitude, Machida Sonoko asked cautiously.
“Because this book is a masterpiece!”
Knocking on the file bag, Shunsuke Fujii spoke as if it was a matter of course, his tone calm and confident, as if he was talking about something that was a matter of course.
"........."
——I am such a fool.
Machida Yuanzi sighed in her heart, it seemed that her recent poor performance had driven her to a standstill, otherwise why would she have thought of coming to meet him.
Just by listening to his speech yesterday, shouldn't I know that this is a super newcomer who is here to teach me history? I was really confused and was fooled again just now.
Although she has only been in the editing industry for a year, Machida Sonoko has seen a lot of contributors because of her diligence. Young creators like Shunsuke Fujii are one of the most frivolous ones, especially at this age, high school students! They are high school students who have just graduated from junior high school! Don’t you know what kind of people like this are?

"Infinity, I'm not crazy!"
"Muzan! Today I will kill you to the core!!"
Wu You, covered in blood, had fire in his eyes. He tore off his tattered coat and roared to the sky!
Muzan Kibutsuji: “Sigh.” “But, can we reconcile?”
"Filthy and evil soul, today I will burn you completely!"
A cold smile appeared on the corner of Wu You's mouth, followed by the big sun, fierce flames, scorching heat and cold.
Ryoumen Sukuna: "Kill one of me, and there are still twenty of me!"
"This is my struggle to survive!"
Wu You took out a needle from somewhere and stabbed it into his heart!
Morpheus: "Impossible! I am the most perfect!"
"Crazy? You said I'm a lunatic?"
Wu You pointed his fingertips at his frowning brows, leaned sideways, and akimbo, glancing at the enemy in front of him in a strange posture that was quite twisted for a human.
"It's like when Tom Cat's brother saw Mickey Mouse and said he was Mickey Mouse."
"Don't compare me to a third-rate scumbag like you who shouts about magnetic fields but can't even emit real electric current!"

It'll be late today
I have been working since this morning and have no time to post any chapters. Plus it's Sunday, so I decided to update a little later, around 12 o'clock in the evening.
.................................................. .....
27. You won’t waste much time
They are young, still in their middle school years, and are generally pure 2D fans. In the absence of experience and most of them lack writing skills, they complete their writing with passion in the boring time after graduating from junior high school. The most important reason why they write light novels instead of drawing comics is that they can't draw.
I actually have expectations for something written by such a person. I am just trying anything I can think of.
Holding back the urge to sigh, Machida Yuanzi said perfunctorily: "Okay, Fujii-kun, I will accept your manuscript. If it is approved, I will notify you to come and sign the contract. Now--"
"Please wait a moment, Ms. Machida." With his experience as a social person, Fujii Shunsuke saw through Machida Sonoko's perfunctory attitude and immediately stood up to stop her from leaving. "Just take a look here first. I promise I won't waste too much of your time."
——Here it comes
Seeing that Fujii Shunsuke was angry with her, Machida Sonoko couldn't help but want to cover her face.
Corresponding to the poor quality of their works, these people are extremely troublesome. Those guys who have not experienced the beatings of society have no idea of the cruelty of this society. They all think how great they are and how good their works are. If their manuscripts cannot be approved, it is either because the editors are blind and incompetent, or they are deliberately suppressing them. They are extremely difficult to deal with.
Look, aren’t we being entangled again?
My current performance is already at the bottom, can you please stop wasting my time!
Machida Yuanzi sighed and opened the file bag: "I will read it quickly later. It's not that I'm not serious, but that's the speed of the editor. In addition, I won't read all of it. Generally, just the prologue and the first chapter are enough."
In order to prevent Shunsuke Fujii from bothering her again later, Machida Sonoko decided to make things clear first.
"not enough."
"?"
"The first volume has a total of ten chapters, not counting the prologue. The prologue and the first chapter together have less than 2,000 words. Although I am a genius, it is a little difficult to see my talent just by looking at this little bit." Shunsuke Fujii made a Korean male stress gesture for those who have lost the Korean male market.
"So, you didn't even follow the basic template..."
Machida Sonoko was helpless.
The so-called basic template is roughly the first chapter: the opening, review of the previous text (except the first volume), and introduction to the theme of this volume;
Chapter 2: The story progresses, obstacles appear, and the protagonist suffers a setback;
Chapter 3: Development continues, the protagonist begins to act, and the emotional arrow gradually moves upward;
Chapter 4: Final Battle, Outbreak, and Finale
Chapter 5: Epilogue and Postscript, or Not
Just like the so-called golden three chapters of Todai online novels, Sakurajima light novels, after so many years of development, have roughly developed their own set of templates. Although they are not universal and may not necessarily yield good results if used, as newcomers, most still have to follow this template to set their own plots, otherwise the whole story will be scattered.
The little bit of hope that Machida Sonoko had originally held on to completely disappeared. She wondered if she should just run away to pee or make a phone call. After all, she had been reviewing newcomers' manuscripts at an extremely intensive pace these days and she really didn't want to continue eating history!
Especially in front of outsiders, Akaashi can't even do things like spitting and complaining to ease his emotions. That's extremely painful!
"Ms. Machida, your current performance doesn't seem to be very good."
Seeing that Machida Sonoko's attitude changed again, Fujii Shunsuke suddenly started to get angry.
Machida Yuanzi's face darkened. Before she could say anything, Fujii Shunsuke continued, "So be thankful. From now on, for the rest of your life, you will be thankful for your actions today. Be thankful that you did not miss out on a super genius like me because of a momentary misjudgment. From now on, you just have to hold on to my thighs and fly."
Machida Sonoko was amused. She held her face tight, not knowing for a moment whether she should laugh or get angry: "Yes, yes, yes, then I will come to read Mr. Fujii's masterpiece."
She decided not to give face to this arrogant boy any more and she was determined to criticize the problems in the novel to the point of being worthless!
"Nisio Isin."
"Ok?"
"My pen name, Shunsuke Fujii is my real name."
"Oh, oh, okay..."
Machida Sonoko was helpless. You gave her such a middle school boy name, and they still said you were not a middle school boy? Word games are fun, right?
There were countless complaints in her heart that she wanted to rant about, but Machida Sonoko still decided to read the manuscript first. If this thing was nonsense, then she promised that she would criticize it back with the most venomous attitude and call this middle school boy who looked down on the light novel industry autistic!
Okay, let’s start with the prologue now.
Well, it's an ordinary prologue, so Yuji is the protagonist and Shoko is the heroine. They seem to be childhood sweethearts and the adorable type. This is not a bad choice, but if it's just like this, the characters are too ordinary, neither good nor bad. In the current light novel industry, such heroines are too ordinary. It depends on how they are shaped later.
Turning the page calmly, Machida Sonoko analyzed the prologue with an editor's mindset, the prologue is really too brief... huh? Wait, wasn't the Taika Reform in 645? Was this foreshadowing already in the prologue?
Slightly surprised, Machida Sonoko continued reading, and then after the first chapter, she was confused again.
Wait, Yoshii Akihisa? Who is this? Isn't the protagonist Yuji? Why is the first chapter all from Yoshii Akihisa's perspective? Two protagonists? Or is Yoshii Akihisa the protagonist? Yuji is the villain, is he going to kill the minotaur? Is it okay for the protagonist of a school light novel to be a yellow-haired guy?
Looking at Machida Sonoko's constantly changing expression, Fujii Shunsuke could guess her mood. To be honest, the opening of "Baka Test: Summon the Beasts" was indeed not very good, at least it lacked in appeal, but this was a light novel sold in its entirety, not an online novel, so it didn't matter. History had proven its value, and its record was verifiable.
And he won't change because he's lazy.
As Fujii Shunsuke expected, after frowning at the beginning, Machida Sonoko quickly got into the mood and was drawn into the story unknowingly. She had been in Akaishi all the time and had not seen such a good story for a long time.
I don’t know how much time passed. After Machida Sonoko finished reading the manuscript, she stretched and felt hungry. She was suddenly awakened: Hey, what time is it now?
No, how could I have finished reading such a thick manuscript? I remember it had three volumes!
Machida Sonoko quickly took out her cell phone and opened it. She saw that it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, the time when the editorial department was about to get off work, but she clearly remembered that the time she had agreed to meet was 4:30 in the afternoon.
I watched it for more than five hours without realizing it?!
ps: Here comes a new py. This is a big guy who has py'd me several times before. At the beginning, he was still a newbie, but now the number of words he has written has far exceeded mine (sad) 2
"Can I draw Eromanga forever?"
My name is Zhou Fangyou, correction, now it’s Lin You.
Parents divorced, sister and house. Then the memory of past life awakened.
I found out that my childhood sweetheart’s mother is “Sawamura Sayuri”; the single lady next door is “Yuigahama’s mother”; the illustrator’s wife who drew the book with me is “the first generation Eromanga teacher”…
In this life.
Yuki Suho: "Onii-chan, just think of it as my sake and use the urge ○ app on them!"
How rude! They and I are in pure love.
[Everyday life in anime, the above works + Licorice + music + My sister...]
28. I’m writing more (create a new folder)
Machida Sonoko was extremely shocked for a moment, but soon she was relieved.
Akaashi has eaten too much, so it is normal for him to be obsessed with such an excellent work that is top-notch in both writing and plot when he suddenly sees it.
If at the beginning she was still reading quickly with an editor's perspective and feeling resentful, then afterwards she was enjoying the novel as a reader, so she had no restraint at all. After finishing one plot, she only thought about the next one, and before she knew it, she had finished all three volumes.
Of course, because she was used to the editing speed, Machida Sonoko read the book very quickly, so she just quickly read it in these five hours. She would read it again carefully later, but that would be tomorrow's matter.
Now, the most important thing is the author of this work!
Thinking of what Fujii Shunsuke had said before, Machida Sonoko was very emotional: Mr. Nisio Isin, it turns out that what you said about you being a genius is true!
Although I have only been in this industry for a short time, I can still make a professional editor give up the review mode without realizing it. This novel is so terrifying!
What's even more terrifying is the degree of completion. After reviewing so many manuscripts, this is the first time that Machida Sonoko has encountered a manuscript that can be released directly as a new work without any modifications. You know, even some of her veteran authors have to check them carefully before publishing a new book, and some even have to revise them several times before they can be published. But for this one, she can't come up with any modification plan at all, as if a big-name editor has already reviewed it!
Is this something a newbie can do?!
I have picked up a treasure this time. It is worth it that I have spent so much time on red stone. After all the hard work, I have finally gained sweet rewards. If I eat more red stone, I will eventually get gold.
Thinking about the endless Akaishi experiences in the past year, Machida Sonoko shed tears.
Sign it right now... No, wait, where is Mr. Nishio? !
It was not until then that Machida Sonoko finally noticed that she was the only one in the room, and the author had left without her knowing when!
Could it be that Mr. Nishio got tired of waiting and left to find another editor to sign a contract?
Like a bolt from the blue, Machida Sonoko became instantly nervous - No, I have finally won the grand prize after eating so much history, and then my senior snatched it away from me, not before I sign ten A-level authors!
Taking out her cell phone, Machida Sonoko wanted to call the other party, but then she remembered that she didn't have Mr. Nishio's contact information.
Rushing out of the reception room, Machida Sonoko wanted to look for someone, but then she saw that there was no one in the corridor and the receptionist had already gone home.
"Tsk, you're leaving so early? You're not a hardworking guy. Take care of the company."
Machida Yuanzi was extremely anxious. What if someone else got there first at night? !
"Goo-"
There was a low rumbling in her stomach, but Machida Yuanzi was too hungry and thirsty to care about it. She kept thinking about it: Can I ask Xiaoshi to help me find out? They are not in the same grade, it is inconvenient and it is a waste of time.
By the way, I contacted my customer service through the company email yesterday, and there should be a phone number there.
Thinking of this, she hurried to the editorial department, came to her seat, turned on the computer, entered her OA and started checking.
"It's broken. Our company outsources customer service, so it's hard to check."
Machida Yuanzi covered her face. Because it was an outsourced customer service, the company certainly could not allow all customer service staff to enter the company's internal system at will. They only gave a few special accounts. Any feedback from the other party's customer service would be reported to the higher level, and then a dedicated person would give feedback through these accounts.
Although having an extra intermediate procedure will make it more troublesome than before, it is also a necessary step to protect the internal security of the company. Although our company is not a financial enterprise, as a publishing house, we have so many manuscripts that must be kept confidential!
But now, it is very troublesome to contact the customer service from yesterday, and it may not be possible tomorrow.
"......Forget it, let's do both. Let's also ask Xiao Shi for help. Luckily I still remember her name. Teacher Nishio's real name is Fujii Shunsuke. If everything goes well, we can solve it during the lunch break tomorrow."
