After a painful struggle in his heart, Miyuki Kitagawa, who finally made up her mind to eat French baked snails, said her choice. Takeshita Kusaoke, who smiled and agreed, on the one hand, held the steering wheel with both hands and maintained a normal driving speed, and on the other hand, asked Sakai Chie to help contact a high-end French restaurant she frequented.

I made a phone call, booked a table with four seats, and told Takeshita Kusashi directly the location of the high-end French restaurant. He had never been there, but he knew the address, so he activated the on-board GPS positioning system and drove to the destination with the best route.

Half an hour later, the four of them were already seated in this elegant high-end French restaurant. Miyuki Kitagawa, who didn't even have time to open the recipe in her hand and take a look, directly ordered a French baked snail. It was not the first time she had stepped into such an occasion, and she did not look at the diorama with both eyes, nor did she feel uncomfortable in her heart.

At this time, Miyuki Kitagawa, who was sitting on the chair, was holding the recipe in both hands, and she had become quite good at ordering. Not only do I know very well that these are French specialties, but I also know how good each dish is. She was gradually cultivated to be able to eat and taste, and she was imperceptibly detached.

The three of them chatted casually, sipping red wine, eating appetizers, and Miyuki Kitagawa who could interject a few words from time to time, was always an indispensable scenery. Even if she didn't understand what the adults were saying, she would look at them with curiosity.

Sakai Chie, who was sitting directly opposite Takeshita Kusaoke, had slightly red cheeks, gently shook the red wine in the cup with her right hand, and said with a smile: "Takeshita-kun, shouldn't you start preparing to meet your readers at zero distance, and have a signing session or something?" ”

Takeshita knew that she wanted to use the international IMPAC Dublin Literary Award to further market herself and the single book "Heart" and the short story collection "Rashomon" sold in the market. I know very well that the novel "Heart" will be further sought after and sold well because of the opportunity he won the international IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, after all, the most powerful gimmick is to play the first Japanese and the first Asian to win this highly recognized international literary award. He also thought that even readers who don't like this kind of novel will buy a copy and collect it at home, after all, they can't let others feel that they are OUT.

"Say it again! I also thought that I could write more novels, after all, this is the life of a writer. Takeshita Kusaoke, who is not very interested in holding a book signing, thinks in his mind that he should use the extra time to continue to work on his own originality, and euphemistically expresses his inner refusal.

If it was just a general relationship with him, Sakai Chie, who would stop when she heard this, had a good personal relationship with him at the moment, so she couldn't help but further persuade him: "Don't be so high, okay?" Meeting with a wide range of readers is not only for marketing, but also for you to be grounded. Think about it from another perspective, if you like a writer's work very much, then it is natural to want to ask for an autograph, or to meet them, or to say a word. Indeed, among them, there are readers who are lively and cannot properly understand the ideology and connotation of your work. However, you have to believe that most readers are not fools. I just don't understand why you have to put yourself on the shrine? ”

Knowing that her mind was for her own good, she temporarily put down the knife and fork in her hand, took advantage of the white napkin spread on her legs and wiped her mouth, and responded calmly: "First, I have never felt that I am high, but a very worldly person; Second, I would like to stay on the shrine, but I can never refrain from eating the fireworks of the world; Thirdly, I don't blindly reject the signing session in my heart, but I don't want to do it at this time when I just won the award. ”

He also said that he was not tall. You're clearly Qinggao! In my opinion, a writer should not only rely on his work to conquer readers, but also rely on the personality of the writer to conquer readers. Sakai Chie, who completely persuaded him as a good friend, made no secret that he wanted to take the opportunity of his award to hype up, so as to further enhance his popularity.

"I can't tell you, go and arrange it! However, it is better to be able to be a little later on a later day. I'm putting the finishing touches on my new book. "I think of the unfinished Takeshita Kusabi in the second novel, "Poppy Grass", and continue to carry out the work of Mr. Natsume Soseki to the end.

Inside the two eyes is Chie Sakai, who emits a bright light, and the joy is not that he agreed to the signing meeting, but that he has a new work that is about to come out. I don't feel strange about the prolific nature of Takeshita grass mustard, after all, there are not no well-known writers like him throughout the ages, and this includes Balzac, the king of novels.

"You're the man who was born to write novels. At the same time, you are also a man chosen by God. By the way, I suggest that your new book be released along with the book signing. It's May, so it can be postponed until the beginning of June. Releases new games just before you go to Dublin to claim your award. Sakai Chie, who is still looking forward to his new work, not only gave him a high evaluation, but also calculated the best time for him.

She fully understood that Takeshita Kusashi was sluggish in many ways, and that he was only outstanding in writing, after all, God was quite fair, opening a window for him and closing a door for him. At present, I am not in a hurry to make a big breakthrough with him emotionally, but I am fully assisting him, and at the same time, I have also achieved the further development of my personal career.

Leaning back on the back of the chair, he picked up the red wine glass in front of him with his right hand and took a sip of the bamboo mustard, slowly put it back in its place, and smiled: "I really didn't expect me to be so good in your mind, I was flattered." As for the book operation, I don't understand, so I have carte blanche to you. If you say it's good, then I'll cooperate! ”

"Kako, you see he's starting to stink again. If I had known he would be like this, I wouldn't have said it. Attention shifted from him to Kako Kitagawa on the left, Chie Sakai, grinning.

"Don't pull me in on the two of you." Kako Kitagawa, who deeply felt that she had been extravagant again, fell in love with the food here from the bottom of her heart, and responded with a smile on her eyebrows.
