Chapter 305: Grievances (5/5)
The search for Mr. Hatano ended in vain. The group of reporters from Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info arrived at the location only to find that the box had already been taken away.
Hatano's identity has become a fascination and tugs the hearts of many people.
In Huaguo, in the group of the Detective Fiction Association, everyone is discussing this issue.
"The Edo Award and the Tree Planting Award, we ...... None of them were selected. Wei Tianzong typed this line with some sadness.
"The Edo Prize is a prestigious award, and you need to submit your work that has won a name or other award in order to apply. We don't have anyone to participate in, so it's normal that we didn't win a prize. Wei Xiang typed and said, this is indeed the truth, after all, this is to win the award in the island country, compared to their local awards, it is indeed very troublesome for them to win the award. Just like this Edo Prize, they didn't have anyone to participate in.
"The Edo Prize, that's it. But the tree planting award ......," said the old man with some embarrassment.
Because although some people were nominated for the Tree Planting Award, they did not make it to the end.
"Hey......" everyone sighed together.
"In the end, it is the award of the island nation...... It's not a ......," Meigawa typed with some guilt.
You know, it's all because of him. At that time, he was the only one who challenged the East Paw. It's going to drag everyone into the water.
"I don't know Tojaw's pen name yet, and I don't know which one is his work. As long as he's not Ozawa or Hatano, it's a draw. Wei Xiang said with some optimism.
"That's ......"
However, this Ozawa and Hatano are also writers from the island country. Isn't this still a loss?"
"No, when the East Claw challenged, it was just a fight between East Claw Ichiro and Mr. Meigawa. Wei Xiang frowned, he always felt that something was wrong with this matter, but he couldn't say it.
"Yes, it was a draw. Wei Tianzong said.
No one thinks that Higashija Ichiro can write works like "After School" or "The Devotion of Suspect X", after all, to write such a work, does he still need to use this kind of challenge to attract popularity?
"What a draw, you guys are so confused!"
Suddenly, someone typed a line of words that caught everyone's attention, because the person who said this was the president of the Detective Fiction Association, Li Zonghao!
Li Zonghao can become the president, in addition to his superb writing skills and weird plot mode, but also because his wisdom is fully qualified for this position. Because of this position, Li Zonghao often has to deal with people, but in order to calm down and write, he retreated for a whole month this time!
Li Zonghao's retreat was in a remote villa. But it was only in one of the small houses, and there were people bringing him food at the small window every day, which was like a prison. But that's when he can calm down and create the most!
Who knows, when he came out of this retreat, he found that during this time, this group of people had done so many things!
"This group of people ......" Li Zonghao sat on the chair and rubbed his head helplessly, he was really worried, this group of people, don't they know how to use their brains to think? Wei Xiang, a young man, usually looks quite clever!
Li Zonghao calmed down for a while before typing,
"This is a thing, who is the loss, do you know?"
"This ......"
"What's wrong?"
A couple of writers haven't figured out the situation yet.
"Do you mean...... Oh my God, we fools!" Wei Xiang suddenly realized, randomly angry, and slapped the table hard.
"The island country only uses one detective novelist, East Ja Ichiro, to contain all the detective novelists in Huaguo!" Although Li Zonghao was angry at the moment, he still typed this line very soberly.
"This ......"
"Oh my God!"
"What fools we're alike!"
"What's the use of these awards in the island country! The World Detective Contest is still two months away, and we're still doing this!"
That's when everyone thought of this. After all, they are usually immersed in the creation of novels, and their minds are simple.
But at such an age, simple-minded, what's the difference between being stupid and stupid!
Especially Meichuan, his mood is the most depressed. You know, it started because of him. Now, it is because of him that so many people's international competitions have been delayed!
It may have been an article that I had written before, or I didn't prepare my work to participate in the Tree Planting Award and the Edo Prize. Think about it again, his previous novel "Going to School", which was also nominated. This novel is on a similar level to "The Castle" and "Kite". What they thought at the time was that the island writers were nothing more than that.
But in fact, although Higashija Ichiro's work is not as good as the award-winning "White Night Walking". But after all, he is the top detective novelist in the island country, and his level is higher than that of Mingchuan and Wei Xiang!
And his novel at the time only proves that he didn't take this challenge seriously at all!
It's too much!
Thinking of this period of time, their novels are almost a collection of everyone's efforts. Now I know that this is just a plan, but they have fallen into it.
"If it weren't for this challenge, what would you be doing at this time?" said Li Zonghao again.
If it weren't for this challenge, they would naturally be preparing for the World Detective Contest. Concentrate on polishing this work, as well as the next novel. After passing the preliminary round, the semi-finals will take a long time, but if the semi-finals are passed, the semi-finals will come soon.
Of the three grand prizes in the island country, in addition to the Tree Planting Award, which is known as the Newcomer Award, the remaining two grand prizes, the Edo Prize and the Yokono Masashi Prize, were awarded to writers of the year.
Writers from island countries only need to take one work this year to participate in the competition, but they need to conceive a novel from scratch.
"Now, get everything back on track. Concentrate on preparing for the battle! Don't pay attention to that East Ja Ichiro!" Li Zonghao said.
Fortunately, it's not too late, and this more than half a month can be regarded as a writing training for them.
However, everyone was holding their breath in their hearts. This loss is so in vain?
"Otherwise, what else?" asked Li Zonghao.
Yes, what else can they do at this time, they can only concentrate on preparing for the International Detective Competition, which is the right thing.
But not only Mingchuan, everyone was a little embarrassed and unconvinced.
Not only was everyone unconvinced, but Li Zonghao also thought so, the four writers of Huaguo suffered a big loss. Especially Mingchuan, he wrote two novels during this time, which can be regarded as a distraught. You have to recuperate for a while.
It would be nice if at this time, someone could give this group of guys full of intrigue in the island country a hard blow!
Everyone thought secretly.
