Chapter 6: Professionally copying other people's things and then reselling them is more promising

Chapter 6: It seems that it is more promising to professionally copy other people's things and then resell them

In exchange for the adaptation right of a work of one's own, a professional writer himself is his own instructor, and under normal circumstances, only a time-traveler can do such a brazen thing. However, for the debut of light novels, Kazuya is really working hard, after all, even if someone guides him, it is still difficult to learn to write a flesh-and-blood novel, although there is no shortage of impressions of excellent stories in his mind.

However, under the influence of Shibuchi Xuan, Kazuya's grasp of the text of the novel is getting better and better, and he is a relatively clever person himself, and in the process of writing, those animations and novel fragments that sleep in his memory are slowly revived. Finally, Kazuya, who has accumulated a lot of money, ushered in the second year.

This time,And still didn't choose to plagiarize light novels.,First, the light novel resources he has an impression of are really poor.,Second, there are very few light novels that earn word-of-mouth and sales.,Of course, he really wants to copy those works with high evaluations and good sales.,But he can't stand the rich literary accumulation and various self-monologues that these works need.。 So, he chose to plagiarize and adapt the masterpiece of his previous life - "White Album 2".

The script of "WA2" is actually a more orthodox love style script, except for some scenes that must be in the eighteen forbidden Galgames, the famous stomach-acheting plot design, after being reasonably adapted into a novel, the effect is not bad. Moreover, for Kazuya, the character of often falling into self-blame for various things also makes him grasp Chunxi's mood more well, and the lines in the script that are not impressive can also be fooled by his own brain. And the plot of WA2 was also recognized by his teacher Shi Yuanxuan, although he once regretted that it would be nice if he could find an opportunity to give people a bento. In this regard, Kazuya's reaction was "Campus romance drama, you send me a bento to see, the protagonist is a guitarist, a singer and a pianist, not a pianist, a violinist and a baseball player!" ”

In short, with the teacher's expectations and his own efforts, Kazuya's novel finally passed the first round and finally reached the stage of the grand prize. Subsequently, he received a phone call from Machida Editor of fantastic Bunko asking him to come to the editorial office to talk about the publication of "WA2", which is now being adapted into "Fuyuki" by Kazuya Aragaki.

"Although the road is tortuous, as long as you can make your debut, you don't have to worry about not making money, the stomach medicine god WA2, when the time comes, if I also become a writer who can receive blades, it will be considered a hit and the pinnacle of life!"

With this in mind, Kazuya went to the editorial office of Fantastic Bunko and found the conference room, where he found that there were already two women sitting inside.

A man in a work uniform, with short and neat hair and sharp eyes, looks less than 30 years old, presumably this is the Machida editor who contacted him.

And the other is an amazing beautiful girl.,Once,And also thought that his sister was the perfect example of black Changzhi.,And this time,,He found a high-quality beautiful girl who can be compared to his sister.。 With standard long black hair and a delicate face, he has a perfect figure, especially the black stockings on his long legs, so that he couldn't help but stare at it for a long time. It wasn't until the other party snorted coldly that Kazuya looked away embarrassedly.

After discovering that the other party was looking at him with a scumbag look, he couldn't help but shudder: "A beauty is a beauty, it looks like the queen's temperament is obvious, it's not easy to deal with, uh, but what is she here for?" ”

"Ahem, since both of you have arrived, let's start our meeting." The Machida editor coughed lightly and announced the start of the meeting.

"Machida-san, I have a question before I begin, isn't today's meeting here to discuss the publication of my novel, so what is this dangerous looking middle school boy here for?" Kuro Nagazhi naturally spat out the amazing words out of his mouth.

"Poisonous tongue, poisonous tongue!" It was the first time in his life that he was evaluated like this, which made him a little dissatisfied, "Wait, isn't that the case, I'm also here to discuss the publication of my novel, what's the matter with you, a terrible woman who only looks good and has a good voice?" ”

"Oh, then this potential criminal, you don't look good and don't have a good voice, so what else do you have to sit at the same table as me, a person with a good face and a good voice?"

I was sunk, I was too much of a failure, my life was too much of a failure, and Kazuya bowed his head in shame and was ready to abandon the door.

"Okay, okay, as an editor, I'm here to explain this matter today," Machida editor decisively interjected at this time, "The two of them won the award at the same time in the editorial department's selection, but this year, because there are many popular teachers who want to publish novels, so this year only one of the two novels can be selected and published." It just so happens that there are many similarities between the two, Aragaki Sensei's "Winter Snow" and Kasumigaoka-sensei's "Love Metronome" are both love stories on campus, and both junior high school writers can be used as publicity gimmicks, so this time the editorial department invited you to come over to discuss your work and choose one to publish. ”

"Well, I see, so my Sayuka and Mayui need to compete with the work of this humble little character, right? Machida-sama, I think this thing is too boring, there's nothing to compare, hurry up and take down the work of that little character, I think I need to rest. ”

"So, where did I offend you, why did you speak out against me from the beginning, and who said my novels were worse than yours?"

"Oh, of course I didn't say it, but you think so yourself, can I think that you don't have confidence in yourself?"

"OK, OK, it's up to the editorial department to judge which one is better, and now from the perspective of the first volume, the beginning of the two sides is more similar, both are relaxed daily developments, plus the final explosive efforts. But I believe that the two teachers must have their own ideas in the future! So, can you tell me about the possible future development and let me give me a rough sales estimate? Machida interjected again in the middle of the argument, but Jean Kazuya was unhappy that he always felt that Machida had asked the terrible woman named Kasumigaoka on the other side to say one more word.

However, after listening to Machida's editor's words, Kazuya became more confident. After all, the essence of WA2's plot is in the second half, and the content of IC is indeed good, but the orthodox comedy development in the first half is not its core, and the sadistic part of the second half is not the ** of the plot.

The focus of the WA2 plot is still in CC and Coda, whether it is the famous Christmas Eve event and the concert event in the CC line, which are the two essential plots that make the Yukina Party and the Winter Horse Party heartbroken respectively, or the Osaka incident in Coda, they are all outstanding stomach medicine events. And the party struggle that began to ferment in IC also tends to be white-hot due to the various endings, although I have not personally experienced the terrible black kitchen war and party strife, but I am no stranger to the tearing war between the two parties of Dongxue, and I am no stranger to it, which is definitely a big selling point.

What's more, Kazuya already knows the plot of WA2 well, and he can even say the next plot development process without thinking. And on the opposite side of the Kasumi Hill, in Kazuya's view, although it seems that he has an overall grasp of his novel, but there is probably no fixed formula in the specific plot design! And Kazuya already has a key plot in mind.

"It's a win!" Kazuya said secretly, not realizing that he had set up a flag of defeat.

Sure enough, Kasumigaoka on the opposite side hesitated for a moment and said, "In addition to the first and second volumes that have already been given to you, I have a specific outline for the next expansion, and according to my thoughts, the expansion is like this."

Seeing that the editor of Machida just nodded, wrote a few lines in his notebook, and Kazuya no longer paid attention to the plot of "Love Metronome" opposite, he was just thinking seriously about how to describe the plot more flesh and blood, so that the two opponents in front of him were impressed by his stomach medicine album.

Although it is just a simple narrative of the plot, there are no masochistic monologues of Chunxi, but WA2's stomach medicine skills are not blown, after retelling the plot of WA2 in half an hour, Kazuya looked at the result in front of him with satisfaction, and the expressions of the two women immersed in the story made him still a little proud:

"I've seen the ending, I'm going to step on the poisonous tongue woman in front of me, and then win the title of the master of stomach medicine, of course, I can change my shape next, write something relaxed, and then come to a god at the last moment to unfold, ah, sure enough, the 'healing' style of writing like Shi Yuanxuan is suitable for me."

"Well, I've heard both of them's descriptions, and due to time constraints, the editorial department will urgently hold a discussion meeting to evaluate their ideas, and ask the two teachers to wait." Machida adjusted his mood and walked out of the conference room

"Ha, there will only be one teacher soon, a woman with a black belly and a poisonous tongue or something, let's hone it for a few more years!" With a standard villain face, Kazuya hit back hard against the opposite side of the black long straight who had been hitting him, and just took a sneak peek at the signature on her script, it seems to be Kasumigaoka Shiyu, the name is quite good, and the person is also amazing, but the character is too bad.

After Machida's editor left, Kasumigaoka immediately stared at Kazuya without saying a word, making Kazuya uncomfortable: "Eh, that, Miss Kasumigaoka, I know that you have changed a lot of opinion of me, and you are also interested in me, but there are already girls with similar attributes to you around me, and I think her black long directness is more perfect than yours, and she is my sister, so you can't win her, give up!" ”

"Well, Aragaki-san, I'll admit that your work really appealed to me, and Yukina and Fuyuma should be on par with Sayuka and Mayuki, or even better. But I'm just acknowledging your work.,It doesn't mean that my opinion of you as a person has changed.,Are you usually too popular so you have the illusion that a beautiful girl will stick to you upside down? It's a pity, I don't think many people like you in general! ”

"Ha, you must know that I am the first in the core plus grade of the football varsity team, although I have just entered high school, but according to the experience of my country's middle school, the time to stuff love letters in the shoe cabinet is not far away."

"Ah, I'm sorry, it turns out that there are so many girls with eyes and no beads who have fallen in love with you, I understand, I apologize to this society, a man like you in this society will still be welcomed by girls, I have no way to transform it!"

"So you are the prime minister or Amaterasu, how can you take on the responsibility of transforming society!"

"Ah,Don't talk about that.,Aragaki san.,I apologize to you.,I've heard of celebrities who became the new core of the Toyonosaki Gakuen football team as soon as they entered school.,I'm just worried about the kind of possible depraved future of the school's hopeful star.,And I'm anxious.,So I said something unsympathetic.。

"I said you didn't apologize this time, but are you also a student of Toyonosaki?" After the other party pointed out his school accurately,And can't help but have some doubts.,Then,He understood,Kasumigaoka Shiyu,Toyonozaki School Park second grade,First grade in ten thousand years,Cold queen,In addition to sleeping in school, it's reading.,Never bother to talk to other people.,One of the double walls of Toyonosaki School Park.,By the way, the other is Kazuya's childhood friend (pseudo) Sawamura Spencer Eiri pear.。

"I didn't expect that famous Kasumigaoka Shiyu.,It's still a otaku novelist.,That's good information.,I don't know which of your potential male fans will spend how much money to buy this information? When I think of your unapproachable temperament, ruined by such a thing, ah, I'm sorry, I seem to have said something terrible! ”

"It's okay, humans don't care what ants say about her."

"Do you think I'm an ant?"

"Maybe it's a bed bug that's one level higher than ants!"

"Are bed bugs a level higher than ants?"

"Since you think it's one level lower, let's satisfy your idea, Mr. Bug, who is one level lower than the ants!"

"So why are you targeting me like this?"

"I'm not targeting you, I'm just sorry that there are still some creatures in this world that pollute the environment, please ignore my feelings!"

---------------------------------------- Dividing Line---------------------------------------------

"Two, the results of the deliberations are out." Machida editor interjected at the right time again, interrupting the conversation between the two, but it seemed that Kasumigaoka Shiba had spoken one more time?

In his opinion, as long as he defeats his opponent in the work, then what is that verbal faux pas, and if he wins on the frontal battlefield, the previous humiliation can be repaid a hundredfold.

"So, as a result, we chose to publish Kasumigaoka-sensei's "Love Metronome."

However, with the trial of Machida's editor, Kazuya's scrappy heart cooled down, and then he exploded: "Why, when I was talking about the plot outline just now, you were all sad, right?" It's just that the outline is like this, and the complete plot is even better, right? My ability to express myself in writing was also shown in the first volume, right? If it doesn't work, it can be changed, and if it's not enough, it can be improved, so how can you grasp and veto? What is the focus of the novel, isn't it the plot? A plot that makes people feel really sad, in exchange for this kind of result? What good did that guy across from me give you? ”

Kazuya, who failed again at the last moment, was a little too emotional, although he was 35 years old when he counted his age before the crossing, but that huge sense of failure, as well as the restless hormones of adolescence, still made him say some hurtful things.

"Mr. Aragaki, calm down." Machida editor looked straight in the eye and said, "Your plot is good, but, didn't you find a fatal flaw in your novel?" ”

"What's the problem?"

"How can Dongma and Sa, who are one of the two heroines, not appear in the third of the time after graduating from high school and studying abroad? How about you let those winter horse party who watched the first volume of the winter horse sprout? ”

"But every volume has a corresponding heroine, right?"

But that doesn't mean that the existence of other heroines has completely disappeared. There's another question.,What's going on with the final work part?,Do you know that the audience of light novels is mainly students.,Your high school.、University、The timeline of your work is well drawn.,But when it comes to work,Those young people who have no experience don't have a sense of substitution.,Aragaki sensei,Did you consider these when creating? ”

"Ah, this, light novels are not only bought by students, but the work plot can also attract office workers." Kazuya argued hesitantly, however, in the bottom of his heart, he let out an angry roar: Old thief Marudo, why is there something wrong with your script, how is it different from what was said?

"Mr. Aragaki Sensei, how many non-home-based office workers have you seen buy a light novel that is oriented to the campus at the beginning?"

"However, at the beginning, the campus orientation and readership are fixed, and the next ones will be bought, right?"

"If Aragaki-sensei's outline hasn't been decided, then we can revise it slowly, but look at Aragaki sensei, the ending of your story has been written like this from the beginning, and it's very difficult for you to change the outline!"

"Ah, that, I can write four endings based on market expectations." Nonsense, Marudo has given four endings, how to change the outline to end, haven't you thought about other directions?

"So, Mr. Aragaki, your work is indeed a good work, but there are too many obvious loopholes in the market positioning. Compared with Mr. Aragaki, Mr. Kasumigaoka's "Love Metronome" is also a bit of a problem with the market, but this is all content that can be modified, and the love story of high school students is closer to students, so we made a better choice. ”

And also fell heavily in the chair.,Under the elaboration of the editor of Machida,He also realized his problem.,He's still too careless.,A galgame game script,It's not so easy to adapt into a novel.,He's still too taken for granted.,If there's no Kasumigaoka Shiyu this time.,With his follow-up plot.,Even if the novel is published.,It's estimated that there will be an ending that will be cut in half or forcibly changed the outline.,That's not the WA2 of the stomach medicine god before.。

"I see, thank you Machida editor, and thank you Kasumigaoka-senpai, you have educated me a lot, I take it for granted, I am too confident, I think that as long as the writing is in place, there must be no problem with the adaptation of gods, but I ignore the difference between gal scripts and light novels." After all, the two lives are human, and after the initial outburst, Kazuya still accepted his failure and apologized to the two people in front of him, but he didn't realize that he seemed to have said something terrible. Of course, he was frustrated and didn't hear Machida's editor's "galgame script?" Muttered.

"Yo, isn't it okay for the junior brother, to accept the reality so quickly? The blow is too big and you need to be comforted by your sister? Kazuya's ears rang with Kasumigaoka's playful laughter. It can be seen that Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who won this contest, is in a good mood, and when he sees the frustrated Kazuya, he no longer continues to show his poisonous tongue attributes.

"No need," Kazuya also understood that it was not the first time he had failed to open the hanging, so his performance was quite free, and said with a wry smile, "However, Senior Sister's novel must be a big seller, and if you beat my novel, you can't be the scum of the bad street, and then I will be the first fan of Senior Sister's autograph session." ”

"Oh, in this way, it doesn't seem to be a complete scum scrap wood, Aragaki-san, your evaluation in my heart has increased by one point." Kasumigaoka raised her eyebrows and uttered a slightly surprised remark.

"So, is there only one point?"

"Add a little more, it was minus 100 points before!"

"It's a long way off!"

"However," Kasumigaoka Shiwa raised her head and said confidently, "With a fan of a well-known figure in the school, Kazuya-kun, I'll have to work a little harder, and you'll see how strong the magic of the novel that beats your work is!" ”

"Don't call me by my name, it seems like you know me well, isn't it actually the first day we met?"

However, at the moment when Kasumigaoka Shiyu raised his head, Kazuya felt that that confident contempt for everything, that dazzling light, really fascinated him. At that moment, Kazuya felt that from the point of view of the perfection of Kuronagaoka, Kasumigaoka Shiwa and Ayase had reached a level.

---------------------------------------- Dividing Line---------------------------------------------

"Of course, only for a moment!" Kazuya hid in his room and thought about it, although this time he accepted his failure openly, but the feeling that the novel was only one step away from publication and ended up in the soup made him really uncomfortable, so, as a year ago, he fell into retreat again.

"Arnold, brother, someone is looking for you again." Ayase's voice came from the door.

When Kazuya walked into the living room from his room, he saw a middle-aged man, and the other party handed him a business card: "Contemptible and talented, called Marudo Shien, is a galgame script writer, last time I heard Machida editor say that Mr. Aragaki has a novel that is more suitable for adaptation into galgame?" ”

Maruto Shimei, Kazuya stared at the person in front of him with an expression of eating, could this be the two-dimensional version of Maruto Shiming, first a real Yuanxuan, and then a Marudo Shimei.

"So, it's more promising for me to professionally copy other people's things and then resell them back!" This is the helpless wail of Kazuya Aragaki after meeting the original author again.
