Conan's self-cultivation of fake wine

Chapter 447 Being considerate
  After leaving the office, Lu Ren did not take a walk around Bei Dao's office as usual.

It’s not that I’m afraid of being pushed, but I simply don’t want to disturb Bei Dao’s work. After all, she was already so busy, and she couldn't afford to be distracted from taking time to entertain herself.

But I can't just walk away like this. According to Kiyoshi Sato, after a while, Mr. Naoki Shimaki, the editor in charge of Wanda Nianjiu, will come to him and meet him to receive the manuscript together.

This was something that was decided from the beginning, and Shimaki has been in charge of Manda's new book since the beginning. It is really inappropriate to suddenly replace the person at the final stage of the book.

It's human nature, it's what you should do. Lu Ren didn't have any objections. His purpose was not just to work, but to collect some writing materials.

For example, during this visit to collect manuscripts, Lu Ren was able to interview the author. Ask him about his writing intentions, feelings about completing the book, and future plans.

What are you going to do after finishing this book? Have you considered publishing a new book? If so, what is the type of the new book? What is the approximate release date?

These are all good writing materials. As a well-known best-selling author of classical novels, readers should be very interested in the news about him.

As for the period of waiting for Editor Shimaki to arrive, Riku Ren was not going to be idle. He ran to Sentoshi's desk and asked him to temporarily give up his seat. Then he began to borrow his computer and search for information about the Mantian-nian through the Internet. Mr. Jiu’s personal information.

This is considered a necessary preparation before an interview, something Lu Ren and Bei Dao learned. In addition to finding out the person's experience and preferences, the main thing is to find out whether he has any taboos.

For those who take the path of literary creation, the more famous they become, the weirder they become. Normal people can't say there are none, but very few.

Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts after meeting for a while, Lu Ren decided to check this person's information first and try to be aware of it. Of course, asking editor Shimaki about these things should give you more accurate answers. But in the end it’s better to find out on your own.

Opening the webpage and typing Wan Tiannianjiu into the search engine, all kinds of information appeared in front of his eyes. Lu Ren clicked on them one by one to view them.

——Nohisa Wanda, 53 years old, male, well-known author of classical novels, a member of the Akutagawa Prize jury, his debut work "Kill That Cat", his representative work "The Cat Called Nobel"...

After reviewing the information for about half an hour, Lu Ren had a brief understanding of the author.

He won the Akutagawa Prize in one fell swoop with his short literary work "Kill That Cat" and officially made his debut as a classical novelist. It has been thirty years since his debut and he has written six or seven novels and nearly one hundred short stories.

If I have to say it, this is still Kudo Yusaku's senior, but he is not as famous as Kudo Yusaku. Kudo Yusaku is a world-class best-selling author. This Mantian is not the top author in Japan, let alone abroad.

The only thing they have in common is that they were both winners of the Akutagawa Prize that year. Compared with other literary awards, the Akutagawa Prize is more friendly to new authors.

It aims to encourage newcomers. It is held twice a year. Each time, the best works are selected from pure literary short works published by new writers or unknown writers in newspapers and magazines and awarded. The winner is awarded a prize of 1 million yen and a pocket watch. Only.

Nianji Wanda is now one of the selection committee members for the Akutagawa Prize. He is famous for being good at discovering new talents and helping them. His reputation among writers is very good, and there are basically no negative comments.

Judging from the information given on the website, he may be one of the few normal people among the author group full of weirdos.

For decades, I wrote step by step and became famous step by step.

The only breaking news that happened to him is his latest work "The Story of Wanda".

Before the release of this new work, Wanda had not published a new book for five years. At most, it was a collection of previous works, or some anniversary editions.

Readers agree that this great author has stopped writing. As a result, he came back to the world two years ago and wrote this book "The Story of Wanda". Generally speaking, when an old author who has been writing for a long time rewrites a book, the quality of the new book is basically inferior. Most of them are fans who pay for their feelings, allowing the author to make another round of bad money.

When Wanda's book was in the pre-production period, everyone thought the same thing. Because in the last book before he closed the book, it can be clearly seen that his writing power declined. His writing is still sophisticated, but the plot begins to become dull.

As a result, after Wanda's new book was officially released, everyone quickly became really excited about it. This new book is of high quality and reviews. It only took a week to go from being unpopular to being well-received.

The author who is desperate in his later years tries to waste money → the teacher who never gives up once again creates an immortal chapter.

This caused a lot of discussion at the time, and Wanda's readers were particularly happy.

The old trees are blooming. "It's quite an inspiring story."

Lu Ren closed the web page and stood up from the chair. He turned around and saw that Sundoshi was still standing aside, probably while he was checking information, he just stood there without moving.

Lu Ren patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. Just go about your business."

"Hi."

After Sentoshi sat back at his desk, Lu Ren looked at the time on the wall and wondered: "Why is there still no movement?"

Couldn't Sato Kiyoshi just talk to him for a while? It's been more than half an hour. People at Dongbao should not be so inefficient.

Feeling strange, Lu Ren went up to the second floor again and pushed the door into Sato Kiyoshi's office.

"Ani, you're here. I just told you to contact you." Sato Kiyoshi said, putting down the phone in his hand. "The plan has been postponed to this afternoon. Editor Shimaki just called me and said that Mr. Wanda went to the dentist in the afternoon. Submit the manuscript."

"..."

For some reason, Lu Ren suddenly felt an inexplicable familiarity with this. He was silent for a moment and asked, "Is it because he hasn't finished writing and is using it as an excuse to procrastinate."

"No need to guess, he definitely hasn't finished it." Sato Qing smiled and waved his hand nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter, he just needs to hand in the manuscript within these three days. Every author has a deadline. I started working hard when I arrived.”

"..."

Lu Ren suddenly felt that he couldn't continue talking today.

"Then I'll come back in the afternoon." Lu Ren said and was about to turn around and leave.

"No," Sato Kiyoshi called Lu Ren, "There's no need to make another trip. Just contact him and make an appointment and go directly there. In Wanda's situation, he may not be able to hand in the manuscript smoothly this afternoon. .”

"Row."

　The latest episode of the Conan animated version, The Genius Diner, is truly a work of genius.
