As soon as Fujiya Shuu arrived at the coffee shop, he saw Machida Yuanzi waiting for him by the window.
Black hair, blue eyes, about 30 years old, short hair, and a familiar mature woman. At this time, there were not many people in the coffee shop.
Even though he and Machida Yuanzi had a preliminary understanding of each other when they contacted each other on the phone yesterday. But she probably still didn't know what she looked like. She looked like a high school student.
If he walked up to Machida Yuanzi and told her that he was Fujiya Shuichi, she would be able to tell that he was Fujiya Shuichi. Presumably, she would also be shocked. He wondered if Shiyu Kasumigaoka was also under Machida Yuanzi's charge. If that was the case, he shouldn't be considered special.
Fujiya Shuichi quietly walked forward, and Machida Yuanzi, who hadn't noticed Teacher Shuichi walking towards her, was still looking at the time on her phone, wondering why Teacher Shuichi wasn't here yet.
At the same time, he was thinking that the author must be a meticulous person to be able to write such a powerful light novel like " Unheard of Flower Name ".
Just as Machida Yuanzi was still thinking about it, a young and gentle voice sounded beside her.
"Hello. Excuse me, are you Editor Machida?"
"Yes, may I ask who you are…eh?”
Machida Yuanzi replied subconsciously, but she didn't expect to see a boy who looked like a high school student when she turned around. Although he was very handsome, she couldn't be so thirsty as to lay her hands on a high school student. He must have asked for directions. Perhaps he was thinking about the book and didn't notice Fujiya Shuichi's name.
"Hello, what's the matter?”
Machida Yuanzi asked with a smile. However, she couldn't help but shout in her heart. This boy looked so elegant. If it wasn't for the fact that his age was a little inappropriate, she would have chased him instead.
Fujiya Shuichi smiled in surprise. He didn't expect that he really didn't recognize him. He had already called the editor.
"Nice to meet you, Editor Machida. I'm Shuichi, the one who contacted you yesterday. My real name is Shuichi Fujiya. Are you my editor? Please guide me."
" You are Teacher Xiuyi?!"
Machida Yuanzi couldn't help but raise her voice. The author of " Unheard of Flower Name " was actually such a beautiful high school student?
"Yes." Fujiya Shuichi looked at Machida Yuanzi with interest, as if he was observing her current expression.
He also took out his phone and showed Machida Yuanzi his personal interface on the official website of the library.
She gave herself a few seconds to accept this fact, and then smiled confidently again. She said to Fujiya Shuichi,
"Nice to meet you, Fujitani-sensei. It's the same here. Let's talk in the private room first."
Machida Yuanzi brought Fujiya Shuichi to the private room they had just booked.
The printed contract was already on the table, along with two cups of steaming coffee.
After Shuichi sat down, Machida Yuanzi pulled out a chair and sat down. She said to Shuichi, who was sitting in front of her,"
"I called you over today because I want to talk to you in detail about the signing of the Unheard of Flower Name. I think, Fujitani-sensei, you should already know the popularity of Unofficial Flower Name, right?”
Shuichi nodded and smiled.
"After I finished talking to you on the phone, I went to the official website to check on the popularity of Unheard of Flower Name. To be honest, when I saw it with my own eyes, I was also shocked. He didn't expect this book to be so popular.”
"This morning, the popularity of Unofficial Flower Name is still rising on the official website. It is expected that it will gain even more popularity before the event ends.”
As Machida Yuanzi spoke, she placed the A-grade contract in front of Izumi Kotomi.
"Yesterday afternoon, the chief editor finally decided to give Mr. Fujiya an A grade contract. If the sales after publication could meet the requirements of the library, this A-grade contract would be upgraded later.”
Fujiya Shuichi nodded and began to flip through the prepared A-grade contract.
"Before we talk about the contract, I have a few questions in my heart. Can you answer them for me?”Machida Yuanzi asked.
"Of course you can." Shuichi nodded, put down the contract in his hand, and looked at her.
"Fujitani-sensei, how old are you this year?”
Machida Yuanzi asked a question that she had been curious about since yesterday afternoon. From Fujiya Shuichi's voice, she felt that he was a very young man. However, after meeting him, he was indeed young, but the key was that he was too young!
He looked like a high school student who had just graduated from junior high school.
"I'm 16 years old. I'm in my first year of high school." Fujiya Shuichi revealed his age without hiding anything.
16 years old?
Machida Yuanzi felt that it was fortunate that she did not drink coffee just now. Otherwise, she would definitely spit it out.
To be able to write a light novel with exquisite emotions and excellent writing like " Unheard of Flower Name " at the age of 16, this was already not something that could be described with the word genius.
Although it was common for high school students to write novels, it was rare to see a high school student like Fujiya Shuichi with a mature and strong pen.
For example, the teacher Kashiko that he was currently in charge of was considered a genius, but she was still quite inferior to the person in front of him. If she knew, she would probably be very interested.
"Mr. Fujitani, have you ever published a novel before?”
"No, it's my first time writing." Fujiya Shuichi looked straight at Machida Yuanzi and said without a trace of guilt.
Machida Enko's question was just a small interlude. Shuichi lowered his head and carefully looked at the contract in his hand. He did not say anything, but occasionally reached out to take a sip of tea.
He Quan Qinhai was quite satisfied with the price offered by MJ Literature.
The price of the book was 3500 yen per 1,000 words, and the total word count of "Unaware of Flowers" was about 110,000 words.
In this way, the book could bring Kazumi Kotomi at least 380,000 yen in royalties.
For now, this could be considered to have alleviated Fujiya Shuichi's current financial pressure. After all, Thor had already appeared, so how far could Kanna be?
This did not include the profit from publishing the light novel and the copyright fees.
"The share of the income is only temporary. If the sales of the first volume of 'Unknown Flower Name' can be stabilized after it is published, the share of the income can be increased.”Machida explained to Fujiya Shuichi.
He nodded to show his understanding. After all, he was only a new author, so it was only right for the library to be suspicious of sales.
After reading the contract, Fujiya Shuichi asked,"
"Can we start signing now?"
"Anytime." Machida Yuanzi handed him a pen that she had prepared.
After Fujiya Shuichi signed the contract, he handed it to Machida Yuanzi.
After confirming the signature, Machida Yuanzi heaved a sigh of relief. She was still worried when she got home last night. Would she be able to sign a contract with Fujitani-sensei?
After keeping the contract, Machida Yuanzi stood up and shook hands with Fujiya Shuichi."I wish us a pleasant cooperation in the future, Fujitani-sensei.”
"Happy cooperation."
"The royalties will be transferred to your bank card within three working days. Is there any problem?" Yang Under the Snow reminded.
"Then, Fujitani-sensei, have you thought about what you want to write for your second novel?”
" Yes, I've already thought about it. The next book will be a long novel." Since he didn't have any financial pressure for the time being, he was prepared to write the Forbidden Magic.
"Is it still about youth?"
"No, it can be considered a battle, but it's not a problem to call it youth. I'm very optimistic about the next book.”
Machida Yuanzi felt that he might be a little proud, but no one knew that the novel had not been published, so she could only say,"Then I'll be looking forward to Teacher's new work.”
