After brewing a pot of black tea and two Western flowering ceramic cups, Kitagawa Kako, from the kitchen to the living room, not only placed it on the glass coffee table herself, but also poured most of the cups in front of them. She didn't linger, and returned to the kitchen sink to wash the dishes. Compared to before Sakai Chie came, half of his heart was divided, and one ear was not eavesdropping on their conversation, but a kind of curiosity and concern for him from the heart.

Holding the cup with both hands, it was Sakai Chie, who drank two small sips of black tea, and put the cup back in its place without hurry, while taking out a contract for a fixed column from the platinum bag, and smiling politely: "What status and strength does our Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House belong to in Japan, I don't need to explain too much, I guess Mr. Takeshita is also the most clear." I just don't know if Mr. Takeshita is willing to sign an appointment with our company for a column? This is not a long time, two months. After expiration, whether we renew the contract depends not only on the reaction of the market, but also on the personal meaning of Mr. Takeshita. ”

Teacher Takeshita was called uncomfortably by her, and she was really not used to her calling herself like this. He didn't reach out to get the contract on the glass coffee table for the purpose, on the one hand, he was happy and had a way to make more money, but on the other hand, he was worried about whether he could be qualified for the position of columnist, after all, the short stories published from beginning to end were not his original work, but Akutagawa Ryunosuke's masterpiece.

Once he signed a contract as a columnist with the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House, the copyist would be invalid, and he would have to rely on one person to write originally. Once the standard of what is written is too poor, people will inevitably suspect that the short stories they wrote before were ghostwritten. Even if they don't find any relevant evidence, they will be cautious and even skeptical about their future novel submissions, after all, writing is something that can not be practiced overnight, but those who read it can clearly feel that the writer has mastered the text and the writing skills are geometric.

"I'm sorry. Aside from a little bit of fiction, I'm not very good at other genres. "Takeshita Kusaoke, who can't lose long-term huge economic benefits for the sake of short-term small profits, has made up his mind not to sign a contract with the other party for a fixed column after some weighing.

I don't dare to say that I am nine out of ten, and I think I am sixty percent sure, but I was once again ruthlessly rejected by him. This time it was much better than the last time, after all, he didn't refuse directly, but still said it very tactfully. For a while, I really didn't know if I should be happy or sad, and her arrogant heart that didn't like failure was hit hard. According to common sense, a potential rookie writer, even if he has made some heads in the literary world, will be extremely willing to sign a contract with a large publishing house with great fame and strength, after all, there are many benefits to doing so, obviously.

I couldn't figure it out at all, and Chie Sakai, who was quite surprised, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became, looking at the young man in front of her was a little better and inexplicable. can't help but speculate about him, she is wondering, is Takeshita Kusa arrogant to the point of being incomprehensible, acting stupid and naïve, or is it a unique style that naturally flows from his heart? If the latter is the case, he is probably likely to become a world-class writer and win the Nobel Prize in Literature, after all, genius writers have unique thinking and are different from ordinary people, but they all like to be mavericks, never like to be constrained by anyone, write what they want to write, say what they want to say......

"Mr. Takeshita, I'm not in a hurry about signing the contract, I can wait for you to think about it that day, then it's not too late for us to sign that day. At the same time, I personally advise you to think about it carefully, after all, this is the best result of a win-win situation. "Not long after joining the work, Chie Sakai, who was enthusiastic and eager to prove himself to his colleagues and peers, and wanted to make a career, put aside his personal dissatisfaction with him for the time being, and just talked about things.

"Don't call me Takeshita-sensei. I got goosebumps all over my body. I'm the same age as you, and I'm about the same age, so just call me by my name. Holding little Lori in both hands, looking at the Takeshita grass mustard she was snaking, on the one hand, she closed her mouth and no longer signed a contract, and on the other hand, she didn't like the too politeness of her peers, so she took the initiative to mention it.

And Chie Sakai, who realized that he was informal, also felt that it was difficult for him to get it. However, the more difficult and challenging it is, the more her competitive heart can ignite enthusiasm and passion, and she must find ways to conquer it without fear of difficulties and obstacles. Yu Gong, signing him by himself is tantamount to benefiting the publishing house. Privately, she can also benefit from it and accelerate the pace of her promotion.

Sakai Chie, who took the contract back from the glass coffee table and put it back into her platinum bag, is still very particular about ways and means, and does not blindly chatter around a thing, and strategically pulls into each other's personal friendship first: "Since you treat me as a friend, then I am not the editor of a publishing house now." As one of your many readers, I'd love to know where your inspiration comes from. Can you tell me about "Rashomon" and "In the Bamboo Forest" that you may have thought of, but didn't write about? For a writer of your age, it seems that the tone of the pen should be light, fresh, selfish, and full of a vision of the future......"

It feels like she has suddenly become the Takeshita Kusa who interviewed herself, and of course she will not turn this conversation between the two sides into an idle conversation between friends. It is not known whether she may be able to turn around and go back, summarize the content of the communication with herself, and then write a related manuscript for publication.

Smiling Takeshita grass mustard, the palm of his right hand is stroking not noisy, not much, silently eating the snack in his hand Lori, half joking, half serious replied: "My life experience is very bumpy, along the way can be described as full of blood and tears." Before "Rashomon" was published, I already owed the kind-hearted Miss Kitagawa three months of room and board. If she hadn't continued to take me in, I would have been sleeping on the streets. If that's the case, not necessarily, if you wake up one day and see a sloppy, ragged, foul-smelling person on the side of the road, asleep, it is very likely that you are under me. Not only that, but I have been very unfortunate since I was a child, and I have suffered a lot of beatings, scolding, ridicule, and bullying......"
