Chapter 068: Acceptance Speech

After a few turns, Sakai Chie has always been inseparable by Takeshita's side to play the role of a green leaf, and the purpose is very clear to set off his red flower. She knows that even if Takeshita Kusa does not leave any profound impact on everyone one by one, at least she is mixed up.

didn't forget to promote him Sakai Chie, not at all like the editor in charge of the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House, but more like his personal secretary, but naturally he was on the side to collect and send business cards to him one by one. The various delicacies on the table are two people who haven't had time to eat a bite, and the purpose of coming here is not to eat one. Having said that, they drank a lot of various drinks and drinks to quench their thirst.

A hostess wearing a floor-sweeping black evening dress with exquisite makeup stood on the stage with a microphone in her hand and smiled: "Guests, good evening, everyone." I am here to warmly welcome you to the 155th Akutagawa Prize and Naoki Prize Presentation Dinner. In the meantime, I hope you will have a pleasant and memorable night here. For the names of the award-winning writers this time, everyone must know best, and there is no suspense...... Without further ado, I would like to ask Risa Miya, the 130th Akutagawa Prize winner, to present the main prize pocket watch and a 1 million yen secondary prize. ”

All the people present faced the stage one after another, and they all applauded their palms. In the midst of applause, Takeshita Kusaoke, who was trying to overcome his nervousness and remain calm, slowly walked onto the stage from below in the eyes of everyone. He didn't have a serious face, and he could still keep a three-point smile on his face, and he really regarded the people on and off the stage as big pumpkins. I patiently waited for this important moment to come.

Then, holding her skirt in both hands, Lisa Mianya, who completely revealed a pair of red high heels under her feet, smiled and walked up from the stage very calmly. And a tall lady who was waiting next to the audience early and wore a traditional Japanese kimono walked to Takeshita Kusaoji with a tray in both hands as soon as she walked up to the stage.

Standing three steps away from him, Lisa Mianya shook hands with the other party, then took out a pocket watch from the tray and handed it to the other person's hand, and then handed the red envelope containing the 1 million yen cash check to his other hand again. Finally, after moving a few steps to the side, she turned one hundred and eighty degrees to face the audience. He took three steps back slightly, side by side with Takeshita Kusaokei so that some people could take pictures and videos.

"Congratulations, Takeshita-kun." Lisa Miya, who didn't look stupid and stood for them to take pictures and videos, smiled unchanged.

"Thank you." Takeshita Kusaoke, who said the two words concisely, is a feeling from the bottom of his heart, and there is no word that can fully express the truest feelings in his heart.

The hostess who approached, while handing out the microphone to herself with her right hand, spread out her hand to signal it, and Takeshita Kusaoke, who took the microphone from her hand, of course understood that she wanted to say some acceptance speeches in front of everyone on the scene. Whether it's true or not, you always have to say it again.

Takeshita Kusaoke, who had been fully prepared when he came here in advance, not only wrote down the original manuscript by hand, but also revised and revised it, never forgetting it, and memorized it word for word. Now, he just needs to recite it in front of everyone, saying, "Thank you very much to the jury for awarding me the highest award for Japanese literature." I feel very honored to be recognized for my work, and it also strengthens and encourages me to continue on the road of writing. Before this, I really didn't expect to be so favored by Lady Luck. Not only did he pass the primary, re-election, and final candidate stages smoothly after being nominated for the first time, but he was also able to stand out from the last stage and win the Akutagawa Prize. Finally, I would like to give a special thanks to Chie Sakai, the editor-in-charge of Bunji Spring and Autumn Publishing House. ”

He did not make a long speech, spoke moderately, did not hurry or slow, did not show too much nervousness, and finished what he should have said smoothly. After about three or five minutes, Lisa Miya and Takeshita Kusaoji walked off the stage on their front and back feet. At this time, the hostess holding the microphone in her right hand has a professional smile, and she doesn't need to hold a small card in one hand at all, after all, she can say the name of the writer who won the Naoki Award and the name of the award presenter without any difficulty.

I walked back to Takeshita Kusaokei next to Sakai Chie, and I really didn't expect that socializing would be so tiring. So, I thought of her for the first time, and whispered: "Tonight, it's hard for you." ”

"Since you know I'm working hard, how are you going to repay me?" The moment I saw him walk up to the stage to receive the award, Chie Sakai suddenly felt like she was on stage with him to win the award. She immediately thought that it was not said that there must be a successful woman behind a successful man, so wouldn't this successful woman be herself.

"Another day, I'll treat you to a big dinner alone. Eat whatever you want? This million yen prize is a big deal, so please laugh at it. It's not that I intend to bribe and buy her in disguise, but I can really feel that as the editor in charge, she has special care and intentions for herself.

Chie Sakai, who was secretly happy in her heart for a while, was not happy because he was going to invite herself to a big meal. A rich girl from a rich family like herself can be said to have eaten everything, and it is not uncommon. She was so happy not only because he was able to think about his extra efforts and hard work, but also because he was able to share a part of the Akutagawa Prize, which symbolizes the whole of the Akutagawa Prize.

"I want to eat you, can I?" Pursing her lips and smiling, Chie Sakai, who blurted out directly, opened her mouth slightly, revealing two rows of snow-white shell teeth, and made a unique sound of colliding with her upper and lower teeth against the air.

"Absolutely! Only, I'll have to tell you upfront that I haven't taken a shower in years. Not only that, but I don't brush my teeth, wash my face, and wash my feet morning and night, almost like a homeless man on the street. I can make you eat like this, and it can be regarded as a great merit. After eating me, if you are not sick, you must remember to remember to read me! Takeshita Mustard, who had a hippie smile on her face, really regarded her as a good friend and would be so open-mouthed.
