My Liver Experience in Tokyo
Page 178
Just finished eating a piece of curry rice, Xinghei Zuo Jinyin put a face on his face, and brought another piece of curry rice in front of Genda Toru: "Genda-kun, I invite you to judge, the cooking between me and this stinky old man, Which is tastier?"
Glancing at Kohei Sakukin's beef curry, Genda Toru said without hesitation: "Your one is more delicious."
"Oye!" Xinghei Zuojin jumped up and shook his fist: "I won! Smelly old man! Now the duel is 499:1!"
Kohei Seiro was full of anger: "It's not fair! Black whistle! You didn't even eat his bowl of curry! How can you judge that it is more delicious than mine?"
Genda Toru looked at him calmly: "First, he put more meat in his beef curry, I like meat, is there a problem?
Second, Zuo Jin said that this bowl is for him, and eating free food is the most delicious. Do you have any questions? "
Uncle Xingping Chengtaro was still mumbling and angry: "Free food, is free food the most delicious?"
"Of course then!"
A head that was also glowing red poked over, and the beautiful red-haired girl blinked her cat-like big amber eyes, and said with a sly smile: "Master Cheng Taro, as long as you waive the bill for me, I can do it for you father and son for free." Food halberd notarization! And you are guaranteed to win."
Xingping Chengtaro glanced at her angrily: "No need, I will definitely use my cooking to make him submit! I swear by my name of "Sura"!"
"Oh oh oh! Then you can invite me to taste it together!"
On the other hand, ignoring the infighting in the kitchen, Genda Toru was already happily eating his second bowl of free beef curry.
Speaking of it, in fact, if it is purely based on taste, the dishes of that uncle Seitaro Xinghei are more delicious.
Xinghei Sakukin put too much beef in this curry, but to a certain extent, it destroyed the overall taste of the curry, which was a little worse than Uncle Chengtaro's.
However, Toru Genda did it on purpose. A father, he competed with his son in the halberd competition, and won 499 times, without letting his son win even once.
No matter how you look at it, it's a bit too narrow-minded, even if it's deliberately sideways, Genda Toru wants the kid Yukihira Sakukin to win once, and he also made a joke with Uncle Chengtaro.
After eating the second curry, Genda Toru left a thousand yen, got up and left, leaving Xingping and his son still arguing: "Listen, Zuokane, after graduating from junior high school next year, you will go Go to Yuanyue Cooking Academy! After you get your graduation certificate, talk about inheriting this restaurant!"
"Hmph! Old man! I don't want to go to Yuanyue Culinary Academy! My culinary skills have already surpassed yours! This restaurant is already mine!"
"Hmph! Our food score is 499:0 and you haven't even beaten me in a single game!"
"Stinky old man, you are really forgetful! It's already 499:1! I just beat you!"
"What! That didn't count just now! That guy, that guy is really out of line!"
"I don't care! Anyway, I won! I won, I won!"
Regardless of the Xinghei father and son who had been arguing all night, Genda Toru turned on the computer and looked at the "Tokyo News" webpage for a while after returning home, and found that there was nothing worth noting.
The headline on the front page was that a chief inspector of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department was sniped with an anti-material sniper rifle during an anti-mafia mission. He was hit in the chest on the spot and was shattered.
The Japanese police system was furious and intensified its raids on the Yakuza. At the same time, the Japanese Diet announced the passage of the "Designated Violent Group Registration Management Law", which completely sounded the rallying call to launch a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the Yakuza.
This matter has nothing to do with Genda Toru. Anyway, he is neither Yakuza nor bad. He is now a promising future professional baseball player, a cutting-edge music creator, a light novel writer, and a future Japanese national basketball player. Does the extreme matter have anything to do with him?
After looking at it for a while, I turned off "Tokyo News", and logged in to "Colorless and Transparent". There was only one "Dark Flame Dragon Envoy" exuding the aura of the second class.
"The Dark Flame Dragon Envoy": People of Darkness!Please heed my call and sing!Let's dance!Cheers!The darkest hour has come, and the evil begins to recede!Only darkness is eternal!
You were still in the chat room in silence, no one talked to him at all, the atmosphere was a little awkward, so Genda Toru logged in.
"Genda-kun": Giyong-kun, rest early!Good night!
"The Dark Flame Dragon Envoy": No!I am not sleepy!Genda-kun, are you also a citizen of darkness?Do you want to go outside for a walk together?It's a nice night outside now!
"Genda-kun": Is the night outside fine?Forget it, I won't go, call Miyuki and go together!
"The Dark Flame Dragon Envoy": I went to call her, but she hid in the room shyly and couldn't come out, why? "
"Genta-kun": Think about it slowly, I'm going to sleep.
ps: Come on, I understand, there will be no content for writing novels.
Chapter 366 Signing a Contract
There was no dream all night, the next morning, around seven o'clock, Genda Toru got up in the morning, and when he went downstairs to fetch milk, he saw Ayoshi Rintaro who had been waiting at the door of the apartment building for almost an hour.
Ayi Rintaro came at about six o'clock in the morning. When he received the email the night before yesterday, he read the manuscript in it overnight, and woke up excitedly before six o'clock yesterday morning.
Originally, I wanted to get up early to find Toru Genda, but thinking that he usually gets up around [-] o'clock, I restrained myself from coming to Toru Genda until [-] o'clock.
Then I learned from the doorman, Mr. Yamamoto, that Genda Toru had gone downstairs at around six o'clock in the morning.
So, today he got up early again, and waited at the door at six o'clock, so as not to miss the opportunity to meet Genda Toru. Jun! I have read the [-] words you gave me several times! It’s really wonderful!
How did you come up with a story like this?Sci-fi elements and light novel elements are perfectly combined!
It is really deafening!It simply opened up a brand new path for traditional light novels!
I originally wanted to tell you about my feelings yesterday, but I’m sorry, I was arrogant before, I didn’t know that you were taking a brand new path, and you were so arrogant and conceited to point fingers at your works!please forgive! "
Genda Toru smiled slightly: "No, I should thank you, because of what you said before, I realized my own problem, and at the same time, thanks to you, I have already got the copy of the Immortal Chuan Library. Publishing invitation, I will go to the publishing house to discuss the contract today."
"Have you received an invitation to publish? That is, has the first volume actually been written? How? How many copies of the first edition? Twenty thousand? Thirty thousand? Ten thousand? When? Published? I can't wait to see how Tanaka Taro and Gina will deal with the red dragon Sargratas!"
Genda Toru shrugged: "I don't know what you said, I went to the editorial department at nine o'clock this morning to discuss this, and I also want to ask you, how much can a general light novel author's royalty contract get?". "
Ayi Rintaro nodded, and pondered for a moment: "Under normal circumstances, the royalties for newcomers are 8%, and some elite newcomers can get 10%. The royalties for subsequent works of light novel writers who have been famous for many years are all in Between 12% and 15%."
Genda Toru nodded, and he already had a general idea in his mind: "Oh! Thank you, Mr. Ethics, if you get the sample booklet, I will definitely give you a few copies!"
Ayi Rintaro was ecstatic: "Really? Remember to sign for me!"
"Of course, I won't forget."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Genda Toru sent Rintaro Ashi away. After breakfast, he lay down and rested for a while, thinking about the next strategy. At 08:30, Genda Toru got on his bicycle and went out.
I walked all the way to Chiyoda District, searched and searched, and found the downstairs of the Immortal Chuan Library Building. I looked up at this white six-story building, parked my bicycle at the door, entered the gate, and saw the lobby on the first floor There are a lot of guys with messy hair and beards wandering around the stairs, all holding manuscripts, and when they see someone in a suit and tie, they rush over and ask the other party to take a look, take a look That's right, Genda Toru looked funny, and said to the people around him: "Don't these people know that there is an email submission?"
The boy sitting next to him looked about the same age as Genda Toru, with a round head and a little fat, but not obese.
Just a little fleshy on the face.
Sitting on a chair in the hall like Toru Genda, resting lazily on the back of the chair: "How could they not know that there is such a thing as e-mail submission! It's just that e-mail submissions go nowhere, and they are not willing to admit their own level Not enough, that's why I'm here to ask the editors to take a look at their work and find his buried gold."
"Will this really work?"
"How can it be useful? The manuscripts submitted to the e-mail are all read by the editors repeatedly, but any works that have reached the publication level cannot be missed. Nothing can only show that their works are indeed rubbish. I didn’t introduce myself, Izumi Masamune is a light novel writer, may I ask who you are?”
Masamune Izumi wondered, he came to the editorial department to discuss the second sequel of his work, because he was busy writing another work recently.
The sequel may not be able to be written according to the agreed time, and today I came to ask for a grace period, because he is a light novel writer who has already published works.
That's why he was able to sit in a chair so leisurely and wait for the nine o'clock editorial department to discuss time. What's going on with this handsome peer next to him?He also came to discuss with the editor?Could it be that he is also a signed author of Undead Chuan Library?
No, I didn't see him at the writer's salon!Such a handsome peer of the same age is still a writer. If I met him once, Masamune Izumi felt that he should not forget it.
Genda Toru shrugged: "I have a book that has been notified to meet the publication standards, so I was asked to sign the contract. Hello, Teacher Izumi, I am thirty silver coins. Nice to meet you!"
Izumi Masamune nodded: "Hi! Teacher Yinbi! Nice to meet you!"
The two were polite to each other for a while, and continued to wait for the time to pass by in the hall. It was almost nine o'clock, and suddenly a man and a woman came down from the elevator. The man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and the woman It's also a suit and skirt, and the most eye-catching thing is the black stockings on her round and plump long legs. When the two went downstairs, they immediately looked around: "How is it? I saw someone who looked like Teacher Thirty Silver Coins ?"
"No, it's still the same people as before, there is no one like Teacher Thirty Silver Coins."
"What should I do? Could it be that he didn't come? What should I do? Is my tone in the e-mail bad? Or the e-mail was sent too late, and Teacher Thirty Silver Coins is angry?"
Narita Masichiro didn't seem to see anyone who looked like the thirty silver coin teacher, so he couldn't help feeling a little anxious, but Machida Mariko held his breath, looked around, and immediately saw Izumi Masamune sitting on the chair, He immediately waved to him with a smile like a flower: "Mr. Izumi Masamune! This way!"
Izumi Masamune immediately wrinkled up and raised his hand, and said to Genda Toru: "Mr. Yinbi, my editor is here to pick me up. I'll go first! Sorry! Excuse me!"
Genda Toru nodded irresolutely: "You are busy! Don't worry about me, my editor-in-charge should come to pick me up."
Masamune Izumi and Mariko Machida entered the elevator, and they immediately saw Masuichiro Narita who was staring at the entrance of the lobby, turned his head to look at Mariko Machida: "Who is this?
"He? My colleague, waiting for his responsible writer to come, it seems that he hasn't arrived yet."
"It's not here yet? Can't it? It's already nine o'clock. There are quite a lot of people in the hall outside. Could it be that I didn't see it?"
Narita Masuichiro shook his head: "Impossible! Teacher Thirty Silver Coins should be about 1.8 meters tall, about 40 years old.
Short hair, maybe wearing a black kimono or an old-fashioned dress or suit, no matter how you look at it, no such person appears. "
Izumi Masamune heard the name "Thirty Silver Coins" first, and was about to say that the one sitting with me just now was "Thirty Silver Coins".
When he heard Narita Masuichiro's description later, he became vague again. No matter how he sounds, this person is not the handsome guy sitting next to him just now, maybe he just bumped into his pseudonym?It is also possible.
With that in mind, the elevator stopped and arrived at the light novel editorial office on the third floor.
In the lobby on the first floor, Genda Toru waited for a while after Izumi Masamune left, but he still didn't wait for his editor in charge to appear.
I couldn't help being a little impatient, and finally I couldn't sit still anymore. I stood up and started looking at the elevator entrance frequently, waiting for the editor to come down to pick me up.
Seeing him like this, I have been watching him and Izumi Masamune's "Legend Bead Writers" enviously laughing for a while: "Since I came here, I just sat there, thinking that he is a published writer just like Mr. Izumi Masamune Woolen cloth!
Unexpectedly, I am also a fan. I just sat there bragging, now I am in a hurry!Hey hey hey!After nine o'clock, the editors have no time to go downstairs to read the manuscript!This newcomer is so stupid, just wait and see!Tomorrow, tomorrow he will be like us. "
Amid the whispers and mocking eyes, Genda Toru finally got impatient and waited for his editor-in-charge to take the initiative to pick him up. He picked up his cell phone and called Narita Masuichiro.
Chapter 337 I'm Behind You
Narita Masamune was watching Machida Mariko and Izumi Masamune discussing the sequel in the reception room on the third floor of the editorial department: "Izumi Masamune-sensei, because you said that the second volume will be delivered in a month, we will Initiate pre-orders to readers, and now the pre-orders have reached [-] copies, and the prepaid royalties will also be sent to you.
Now you tell us that your sequel may be postponed, which is a very big blow to our image of Immortal Chuan Library. If we are not careful, we will become a liar company. "
Izumi Masamune was sweating profusely: "I'm sorry, I'm busy writing another novel recently, and I really can't spare half a month to create the "Silver Wolf" series. Give me another half month. The sequel was written within half a month."
Machida Mariko smiled slightly, and did not continue to press: "Then I hope you can keep your word, otherwise we will really become a liar company."
Machida Mariko didn't use the magazine's initiative or the editor's majesty to threaten Masamune Izumi.
It's just that they have been aggrieved and said that they are going to become a liar company.
But that's it, Izumi Masamune was eaten to death.
Sweating profusely, he promised that there would be no more problems: "Now that the work in hand is almost finished, I can then concentrate on creating the "Silver Wolf" series."
As soon as Machida Mariko heard that the new work has been completed, her eyes lit up immediately: "Oh! Really? The new work has been completed? What's the name? What is the subject matter? I wonder if I can have a sneak peek?"
Izumi Masamune is a little bit embarrassed: "The new work is about urban love battles, but on the one hand, it is a commissioned creation, on the other hand, this is not a light novel, but an original game script, which may not be convenient for publication."
"Did the other party pay? How much? Have you signed a formal copyright sale contract?"
"Not yet, because I was asked to create for free, and the other party provided inspiration and character design, so it is considered a joint creation."
Mariko Machida smiled: "That's not considered a co-creation, besides, I don't want to publish it, I just want to see what kind of story it is."
Izumi Masamune couldn't help but turned on his mobile phone and called up the file: "This is it."
Machida Mariko's eyes lit up, she squeezed beside Izumi Masamune, opened her eyes wide, and carefully looked at the document on the phone: "Oh! It's called "The Valkyrie of the City".
What a wonderful character design, Taro, the leader of the youth group, and Tetsuko, the aloof Valkyrie? "
At this moment, Narita Masuichiro's phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number: "Hello! Hello? This is Narita Masuichiro, who is it?"
Genda Toru's voice came with resentment: "Hey! Editor Narita, I have been waiting for you in the lobby on the first floor for a long time, do you still want my book?
If you don't want it, I'll leave. The Thunderbolt library on the opposite side seems to be good too. I'll go to them to sell it. "
Narita Masichiro immediately became agitated: "Don't, don't! I'll be right away! Right away! I'll be there soon, please wait patiently for a while."
At the same time, she held her mobile phone and called Machida Mariko: "Machida-senpai! Machida-senpai! Teacher thirty silver coins has come, would you go down with me to greet him?"
Machida Mariko was watching it intently at the moment, and really didn't want to be distracted and waved it casually: "It's just signing a contract, what's there to be nervous about?
In short, the bottom line of the library is that the first print of "The Empress" can be up to 15 copies, and the royalties can be paid up to [-]% of the highest rate for newcomers. If you can't get it, you can resign and go home to retire. "
Narita Masuichiro was still worried: "But, but you are the responsible editor arranged by the editorial department."
Machida Mariko turned her head and stared fiercely: "Go if you are told! Don't delay my reading!"
Turning back to Izumi Masamune, he smiled again: "I'm sorry, I made you laugh, Narita-kun is the new editor, today there is a new author's new book to sign a publishing contract, the editor-in-chief asked me to guide him, don't be stunned Go! Turn the page, turn the page."
Seen by Machida Mariko's phoenix eyes, Narita Masuichiro ran out in fright, rushed out of the reception room on the third floor, and rushed down the stairs without waiting for the elevator.
In the lobby on the first floor, Genda Toru had already hung up the phone. His sneering and sneering eyes just now had become shrinking and respectful. Narita Masuichiro ran down the stairs, and the surrounding eyes turned into horror, which can make people feel ashamed. The editor who usually walks calmly in front of them ran down in such a disregard of his image, what is the origin of this young man!Could it be some cutting-edge light novel writer?
Narita Masuichiro ran to the lobby on the first floor, still anxiously looking for the "Thirty Silver Coins" teacher he imagined, about 40 years old, with a strong figure, who might be wearing glasses, black kimono or strict formal attire. After a circle, I still didn't find the teacher "Thirty Silver Coins". There was only a handsome young man who looked sixteen or seventeen years old looking at me, smiling and waving. Well, this young man is quite handsome. Those stars are also incomparable, but this is not important, the most important thing now is where is the teacher "Thirty Silver Coins"?
After searching around again, everyone in the hall, Masuichiro Narita, was sure that he had seen it all, and there was still no trace of the "thirty silver coins" teacher, oh!Maybe the teacher felt bored waiting, so let's go out to bask in the sun!
Genda Toru looked at the male editor looking at the people in the hall quickly, just ignoring himself, and then showed a depressed expression. He couldn't help being a little depressed, and he even waved at him. This guy still doesn't understand what mean?
Seeing that Narita Masuichiro was about to run out of the hall to the door, Genda Toru finally couldn't bear it anymore, picked up his mobile phone and called Narita Masuichiro again.
