Half an hour later.
When Fujiwara Chika, Shinomiya Kaguya and Iino Yako finished dividing up Makoto Higashino's bento and washed the lunch box with their hands, Makoto Higashino stopped coding words.
The three women hurriedly surrounded Hachiman.
As a result, they saw a series of English in Office.
"English novels?".
Chika Fujiwara said in surprise
"The president's English is so good, it's like it was written by an Englishman. "
"Hehe~~".
Makoto Higashino smiled at this.
English is still quite useful, not only is the English test useful, but his company will definitely enter the international market in the future, so it is worth exchanging ACG points for English skills.
It is also because of the English skills exchanged by the system, so Higashino Makoto is very handy in creating in English, and there is no writing block at all.
As for why novels are written in English
The four of them read freshly baked novels, the three daughters all had good grades, and Fujiwara Chika was proficient in five languages (her mother was a diplomat and had heard about it since she was a child), and even Hikiya Hachiman's liberal arts grades were ranked third in the grade, so there was naturally no difficulty in reading English.
“Yes,Minister?"
"Yes, Chancellor?".
First glanced at the title, but this title alone made the four people very confused.
What is this novel written in English?
Immediately after, after they finished reading the content of the novel, Miko Iino's little face suddenly turned red.
Because she thinks that the minister inside is a bit like her during the debate just now?
It's all naïve and stupid.
However, if you look closely, there is a fundamental difference.
Jim Harker, the minister in the novel, is stupid and cute, but he has a killer instinct, and his moral discipline fluctuates, and his mind and means are obviously more flexible and mellow than hers.
Admiring the protagonist of the novel, Miko Iino was directly stunned.
Chika Fujiwara and Hachiman Hikiya laughed directly.
"What is this?".
"The reason why Britain joined the European Community was to drive a wedge between Germany and France and thus overwhelm France? France joined the European Community to protect their useless peasants from competition? And Germany joined the European Community to clear the name of genocide and ask for reintegration into human society
?""Haha, that's too snarky, isn't it?".
"And this, Britain's defense policy is not to defend Britain, but to convince the British that Britain is defended, and the Russians know that without Britain there is no ability to defend themselves. "
Chika Fujiwara and Hachiman Hikiya discussed as they read, and laughter came and went.
Kaguya Shinomiya quietly listened to the discussion between Chika Fujiwara and Hachiman Hikiya, and moved behind Makoto Higashino without a trace, and then bowed his head to Makoto Higashino and said
"President, is this your next novel?"
"Yes. "
Makoto Higashino smiled and nodded:
"The "Detective Di Renjie" series has ended, and this "Yes, Minster" is the novel I am going to publish next. "
This is also the idea of Makoto Higashino's whim.
And then he did it.
The
six-volume novel "Detective Di Renjie" made Makoto Higashino one of Japan's top mystery writers, winning the Naoki Prize, the Edogawa Ranpo Award, and the Akutagawa Ryunosuke Prize.
For Makoto Higashino, who has a utilitarian personality, the mystery genre novel has lost the value of continuing to cultivate, and it is time to try other genres of writing to gain wider recognition and higher social status.
So after the debate battle with Miko Iino, Makoto Higashino quickly remembered the British dramas "Yes, Minster" and "Yes, Prime Minister" that he had watched in his previous life.
These two British TV series of the same series are in the form of humorous comedy to expose the British civil politics, deeply criticize the bureaucracy, at first glance it is a comedy full of irony, a closer look is a documentary full of realistic meaning, can be called the pinnacle of British drama, its artistic value is not inferior to China's "Ming Dynasty 1566".
It must be known that "Daming Dynasty 1566" can be called China's No. 1 drama, and 240,000 people have scored 9.8 on a certain petal, a platform that worships foreign countries, which is terrifying.
And "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister", five TV series + one Christmas special, all have a rating of 9.8 on a certain petal, you must know that this is a British political comedy, there is a certain cultural gap with the Chinese, but it has still been widely praised, and its artistic value and literary value can be called the pinnacle of British dramas.
This is one of the reasons why Makoto Higashino writes in English instead of translating into Japanese.
Makoto Higashino is confident that he will adapt "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister" into English novels and publish them, as long as he finds a reliable channel to promote them, he will definitely be able to become an instant hit in the world and become an international master of humorous comedy literature.
If you are willing to spend money on publicity and public relations, even the Nobel Prize in Literature is not impossible.
After all, the Nobel Prize in Literature has been played by the Swedes for decades. As long as he stirs up the popularity of the novel first, and then gives enough money, there is a good chance that he will succeed if it is done properly.
After all, what awards in the West, to put it bluntly, are like that. Capitalist countries, as long as they are willing to give money, they can even sell the noose that hanged themselves, so what's wrong with selling a dynamite prize?
(Don't talk to me, the current Nobel Prize in Literature is about to be played out because of political correctness and unconventionality, even singers and clinicians can award awards).
Thinking of this, Higashino Makoto turned his head, but saw Shinomiya Kaguya hunched over, leaning his head against his shoulder, as if it was an inadvertent act of intimacy, but the shyness in the girl's eyes revealed that she did it on purpose.
It was indeed deliberate.
When Higashino Makoto was thinking, the girl looked at the young man's serious thinking side face and fell into a trance.
Looking at the pinna that was close at hand, Kaguya Shinomiya inexplicably had the urge to lick it.
It's like a.
Simply, the girl's tutor made her have enough willpower to suppress this impulse, which did not cause an accident on the spot.
When Higashino Makoto turned his head, the girl was even more like a frightened little animal, hurriedly retracted her head, her hands behind her back and trembled, and her face asked with a strong pretense of composure
"President, what's wrong?".
"That's right, Kaguya, do you know the publishers of foreign countries, especially in Western Europe?".
"Publishing houses in Western Europe?".
Kaguya Shinomiya was stunned for a moment, and then reacted:
"Do you want to publish your new novel in Europe?"
"It's better to have a global distribution. "
"Is that so..."
Talking about business, Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly became less nervous.
The girl raised her left hand and stroked the ends of her hair, and then said thoughtfully
"I think my family has a stake in the Beltelsmann Publishing Group, and there is a permanent director who will be able to help the chairman take on the publication and publicity of the president's new novel."
"Beltelsmann Publishing Group?".
Hearing Kaguya's words, Higashino Makoto didn't say anything, and Iino Yako was shocked first.
"Beltelsmann Publishing Group is the largest publishing company in Germany, and its Penguin Random House is the top ten publishing houses in the world!"
"The Four Palaces Group actually has a stake in the Beltelsmann Publishing Group?".
"Hmm~~ It was acquired by the group when it was to develop its European business, after all, we need to control some media mouthpieces when we develop markets abroad. "
Hearing Iino's shocked words, Shinomiya Kaguya smiled slightly, her tone was understated, and she inadvertently emitted the glow of a top rich woman.
Makoto Higashino looked at Kaguya Shinomiya and blinked, and his heart suddenly became more determined in his previous thoughts.
'I'm ready to eat this soft rice!'
PS: The picture is the score of a certain petal "Yes, Minister", all of which are 9.8, which is outrageous.
