What kind of person was Shuichi? With such an excellent writing style, he should not be young anymore.”
With curiosity, Machida Yuanzi dialed Fujiya Shuichi's number.
After waiting for a few seconds and hearing that the call was connected, Machida Yuanzi felt a trace of nervousness for no reason. Then, she asked,
"Excuse me, are you Teacher Shuichi?”
Fujiya Shuichi, who was about to try learning magic with Thor, thought it was a salesperson when he saw an unknown number calling him. After picking up the call, just as he was about to say that he didn't need it, he heard a young woman's voice on the other end of the phone.
After a while, the voice came from the other end of the phone again.
"Hello, I'm Machida Yuanzi, the editor of MJ Literature's editorial department. Is this Teacher Xiuyi?"
MJ Literature!
Fujiya Shuichi was puzzled. He had just uploaded " Unofficial Flower Name " to the official website's essay interface last night. It was not even considered a submission. Did an editor contact him so soon?
This efficiency and speed were too fast!
Fujiya Shuichi, who hadn't paid attention to his novel after uploading it, didn't know that his novel," Unheard of Flower Name," had already gained millions of views.
"I'm Shuichi Fujiya, MJ Literature's editor Machida Yuanzi, right?”He confirmed the other party's identity.
"Yes, I'm the editor of MJ Literature. I'm calling you because I want to talk to you about the specifics of Unheard of Flower Name.”
After confirming that the other party was Shuichi, the author of " Unheard of Flower Name," Machida Yuanzi did not waste any time and said,"
"Teacher Shuichi, I'm honored that you submitted 'Unheard of Flower Name' to MJ Literature. I'm contacting you this time to ask if you're willing to sign a contract with MJ Literature to further cooperate?”
Was it really about signing the contract…
Fujiya Shuichi smiled. He was very confident in his Unheard of Flower Name. However, he wasn't sure if the book would adapt to the environment here. However, now that the editor of MJ Literature had taken the initiative to talk to him about signing a contract, it seemed that there shouldn't be a problem.
"I'm very happy to be recognized by MJ Literature. After all, MJ Literature is a very well-known light novel library in the industry.”Shuichi said.
"Haha, Teacher Xiuyi, you flatter me. The Unheard of Flower Name that you wrote is very attractive in both setting and plot. The editor-in-chief also said that Unaware of Flower Name was the most promising light novel she had read so far. The content was also very touching. When we were in the meeting, we all suspected that you were an old author's alias.”
Machida said with a smile. She was actually very surprised. She had guessed that the author was not young anymore.
But this voice sounded a little too young…It sounded like a student who was still studying in school.
He was very curious, but he was still embarrassed to ask Teacher Shuichi's age. The main reason she called this time was to talk to Fujiya Shuichi about signing the contract.
The degree of popularity of Unofficial Flower Name was visible to the naked eye.
If MJ Literature didn't sign the contract quickly, it was very likely that it would be poached by other editors.
"Of course, there's no problem with signing the contract. Since I chose to use 'Unknown Flower Name' to participate in the essay competition, it means that I have the intention to cooperate with the library. Also, Editor Machida, you don't have to address me with honorifics all the time. Being addressed with honorifics made me feel a little pressured.”
After hearing Fujiya Shuichi's words, they agreed to half of the contract. This made Machida Yuanzi, who had been a little nervous, heave a sigh of relief.
It seemed that this teacher with a very young voice was much easier to get along with than he had imagined.
"No problem, I understand. I'll call you Fujiya-kun from now on. This was the mutual respect between editors and authors. Is this okay?"
"Sure."
"I've finished reading Fujiya-kun's 'Unheard of Flower Name.' May I ask if you can spare some time recently? I want to meet you in person."
"Of course. However, I remember that when signing a contract with Electric Shock Literature, doesn't the signing process usually require the contract to be mailed to the author through express delivery? Do the editors and authors need to meet in person?”
"This is the normal signing process. However, when it came to high-level contracts, it was often the editor and the author who would discuss it in detail. After signing with Fujiya-kun, they would also want to know if you had any plans for a new book.”
After hearing Machida Yuanzi's detailed explanation, Fujiya Shuichi understood. It seemed that the contract level for his " Unheard of Flower Name " was still very high. Fujiya Shuichi was very happy.
The higher the level of the contract, the more resources he would be able to enjoy.
The more he earned, the more wealth and freedom he had.
Moreover, the more resources the library provided, the greater the influence and benefits the work would bring to him.
The more likely it was that his work would be adapted. Fujiya Shuichi wanted to bring these works from his memories to the eyes of the people of this world.
Even though he was a little excited, Fujiya Shuichi still said in a calm tone,"
"I understand. I happen to be free tomorrow at 3 pm. Where does Editor Machida want to meet me?”
"Alright then, let's meet at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Shall we set the location at the cafe next to MJ Literature? The details of the contract would be discussed in detail after the meeting.”
"Alright, I understand. See you then."
"Right, Fujiya-kun, this is my private number. Although I haven't officially signed a contract yet, I'll be your editor in charge at MJ Literature from now on.”
"Me too. Please take care of me in the future. Then I'll see you then." Shuichi said.
