Chapter 423: Authority of the Editor-in-Chief
"Editor-in-chief Kishimoto, who never laughs, actually laughed!"
Kagurazaka Iris widened in astonishment, Mu Fan hadn't been in contact with Kishimoto, maybe he didn't know Kishimoto's person.
But Kagura Saka Iris has always been the editor in charge of Kishimoto's subordinates, and he knows Kishimoto very well.
This is a man who is strict with himself and has been strict with others, and he has never laughed in the years since he became the editor-in-chief, and was even ridiculed by his colleagues as "not laughing at death".
But today, he was actually amused by Mu Fan's book?
It's incredible!
Mu Fan was really taken aback by Kishimoto's smile, after all, Kagurazaka Iris had said before that Kishimoto had never laughed, and such a smile made him a little overwhelmed.
This should mean that his book is not bad, right?
"I'm sorry, because the plot behind your book, Mr. Mu Fan, is so interesting that I can't help but laugh."
Kishimoto lowered his head and took a deep breath, forcibly stabilizing his mood.
"Blessings for a Beautiful World" and the previous "Accelerating the World" belong to two completely different styles, and it can be said that Mu Fan has adopted a new attempt in the style of the new book.
It was precisely because of this new attempt that he took a different route.
This strange style is a unique style that Kishimoto has never seen in the past ten years.
And he uses a completely different adventure element in another world, in which the characters can still die and go back to be reborn like playing a game, so it is clear from the beginning to prevent the tragedy from happening, and it is destined to be a book full of laughs.
But even if you have an expectation of this book, but every joke is even more unexpected, not only is it a skill to steal fat with the real one, especially when the extra-fan adventure union pits and the truth, it makes his mood much happier.
"Really, at my age, I would be amused by a book."
Kishimoto hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, after calming down, he carefully analyzed, in fact, Mu Fan's book can be regarded as taking a different route in all light, with his more than ten years of editing experience, such a novel plot will not collapse, and the results will inevitably be good.
But it is precisely because of the new attempt that this book is a bit too nonsensical, so the results will not be as attractive as the world's famous books.
But Kishimoto can be sure that the results of this book will certainly not be worse than that of "Accelerating World"!
Moreover, today's young people are under a lot of pressure every day, and buying this book is enough to relax when you are in a bad mood.
Mu Fan and Kagura Saka Iris listened to Kishimoto's patient evaluation, and the expressions on their faces were a little excited.
After more than 10 years of editor-in-chief career, there are many books reviewed and read, and now the evaluation is actually amused by "Blessings for a Better World", and the evaluation is very interesting, which is enough to prove the future of this book.
Mu Fan glanced at Kagurazaka Iris beside him, and saw that Kagurazaka Iris didn't make any moves, and he knew that even if Kagurazaka Iris was the editor-in-chief of the publishing house at this time, it would not be easy to ask the editor-in-chief of Kishimoto directly.
However, Mu Fan came because of the matter of the Great God Contract, and at this time, he did not hesitate, and a person stepped forward and asked: "Editor-in-Chief Kishimoto, I don't know if my book can sign the Great God Contract with your station!" ”
Looking at Mu Fan's expectant look, Kishimoto was silent for a moment, and said honestly: "If you use my judgment, it's okay, but the denki library has clear regulations, so I can't make a decision without permission....."
Hearing this, Mu Fan's brows furrowed, sighed, put the manuscript back in his backpack, and said honestly: "I'm sorry, Editor-in-Chief Kishimoto, whether you believe it or not, but I do lack some money, if your station can't be completed, I can only go to other stations to take a look." ”
Since the editor-in-chief of Kishimoto does not agree, Mu Fan will not force it, after all, it is someone else's publishing house, and if he does not agree to sign the contract of the great god, it can only mean that his book has not attracted Kishimoto.
He is the kind of person who has something to say and does what comes to mind.
As a light author, Mu Fan understands that the book "Blessings for a Better World" is very valuable, since the electric shock library does not accept it, he can go to other places to submit it, anyway, the light publishing house is not only the electric shock library.
For example, Fujimi Bunko, Kadokawa Bunko, MF Bunko J, Famitsu Bunko, etc. are all well-known publishing houses, and as long as the book is qualified, there will always be one that will accept him.
Although these publishing houses are not as good as Dengeki Bunko in this world, it can be seen from the top of the results that they are not weaker than too much, for example, Yamada Fairy is not the same as other publishing houses?
And his reputation has already been beaten, the results of the book are passed, and it will not be too bad to change places.
Of course, if he is not short of money, Mu Fan doesn't want to leave, but he can't afford to pay the salaries of the company's employees now, and he naturally won't do anything in arrears, and it's too difficult to borrow money from Amena, which will make Kyoko Yuki suspicious, and he can only choose to change publishers after weighing it.
Seeing that Mu Fan was leaving, Kagurazaka Iris changed her complexion.
Mu Fan is the author that Kagura Saka has always relied on to survive, if Mu Fan leaves, he doesn't mention whether she can be promoted to deputy editor-in-chief, and she has not been able to cultivate god-level authors, and she estimates that it is difficult to guarantee her work, so she immediately stepped forward to stop Mu Fan and persuaded: "Mu Fan wait a little longer, it's not too late to listen to what the editor-in-chief has to say before thinking of a way!" ”
Mu Fan said seriously: "Kagurazaka editor, thank you for taking care of me all the time, but I really need some money, if your station can't help, I can only go to other places to try." ”
Hearing this, Kagura Saka was a little disappointed, a famous author like Mu Fan earned tens of millions just by writing lightly, if she was short of money, it must not be a small amount, and if she said that she was helping Mu Fan, she didn't have that much money.
Besides, if it can be achieved by changing publishing houses, who would be stupid enough to borrow this part of the money and slowly repay the debt later.
As an editor, Kagura Saka understands that although there are authors who write because of interest, most of the authors choose this industry because of survival.
If you can't survive, wouldn't it be pointless to write a book, since Mu Fan has made such a decision, she can't stop it anymore.
"Ahem...."
Just as Mu Fan was about to leave, an embarrassing cough sound, Mu Fan and Kagura Saka Iris turned around, only to see the Kishimoto editor, who was originally sitting in the editor-in-chief position, stood up, looked at Mu Fan with embarrassment and said, "Teacher Mu Fan, you may have misunderstood what I meant." ”
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Mu Fan and Kagura Saka Iris couldn't help but be stunned, listening to what Kishimoto said, it seemed that there was still room for maneuver in things.
It's just that you can't laugh, forget it, can you not gasp when you speak.
But just now, Mu Fan was about to leave, and he was retained, and the atmosphere in the office became awkward for a while.
The editor-in-chief of Kishimoto wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, worried that Mu Fan would leave again when he was young and impulsive, and hurriedly added: "Mr. Mu Fan, I mean that although there are clear regulations from the Dengeki Bunko Publishing House, I can give you some permissions, and your new book can be published immediately, as long as the sales within a week of publication are not weaker than that of "Accelerating the World", you can sign a great god contract with Dengeki Bunko." ”
Saying that, the editor-in-chief of Kishimoto became serious: "This is the only permission I can give to Mr. Mu Fan, you have to understand that if it is other publishing houses, it will not invest too much before seeing the results, so please consider making a decision." ”
