Chapter 7
[In the autumn when I was eleven years old, I... could no longer play the piano. 】
[Two years later, in April, a girl named Miyazono Kaoru appeared in my world. 】
[My name is Arima Kousei, and I am composing music in the piano classroom. 】
[Everything started when a baseball hit me. Maybe it was the beginning of my good luck. 】
The beginning is very attractive, and the writing is crisp and concise. It does not suffer from the mistakes of newcomers such as a lot of settings and unclear developments, and the plot unfolds concisely and straightforwardly.
The plot and setting of this novel should be similar to her "Metronome of Love", both of which are about love healing and sweetness.
It starts with the male protagonist being unable to play the piano due to some problems, and the female protagonist is inserted as the person who saves the male protagonist.
However, the more Kasumigaoka Shiyu read, the more frightened she became. Is such a level really possible for someone who has just written a novel? Could it be that some big boss was reincarnated?
After a long time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu finally finished reading this novel. She gently raised her head and looked into the distance with a confused look, as if she was still immersed in the plot of the story. There was silence around her, with only the sound of the breeze coming from beside her and the sound of Bai Ye chewing the bread brought by Kasumigaoka Shiu.
The silence lasted for a while, as if time had frozen. Kasumigaoka Shiyu's thoughts gradually separated from the world in the book, but her heart was still deeply touched. She sat there quietly, motionless, as if she had become a sculpture, thinking about the various plots in the book.
From a reader's perspective, she really wants to read on! Why did it stop updating at this point! ! !
But from the author's perspective, it's very strong! The novels written by this junior student are really strong. As long as they submit for submission, they will surely pass and even sell extremely well.
There is an unwritten unspoken rule in the light novel industry. If the heartwarming and daily genre can be a hit, then the author must be of high quality.
This type of novel is too demanding on basic skills. Unlike the royal world style novels, which have rich settings and plot support, the heart-warming daily novels are too demanding on writing and characters.
In short, this is no longer a masterpiece that Kasumigaoka Shiyu can comment on.
Rubbing his temples, Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt that he had gone too far in front of others. He originally planned to teach this junior as a senior.
As a result, it turned out to be a swollen face.
"Junior, is this really a light novel written by you?"
"What? Senior sister, you don't think it looks good?"
…………
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was silent, no! Instead, it was because it was so beautiful that she didn't know what to say for a while.
"You really haven't submitted any manuscripts?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't believe it.
"No, this is my first time writing a light novel, but I have already submitted it to Dengeki Bunko, and it seems to have been nominated for a Grand Prize."
Grand Prize Nomination! ! !
This almost means that there is a high probability that this novel will be selected for the Grand Prize, as long as there is no dark horse, but dark horse does not appear so easily.
Kasumigaoka Shiha herself just won the Newcomer Award, and she was still in a medium-sized publishing house like Immortal River. How could she be compared with a large publishing house like Dengeki Bunko?
For a moment, I felt an inexplicable feeling of frustration. I was younger than others, and my talent was not as high as others.
Suddenly, the small self-esteem in Kasumigaoka Shiyu's heart that she thought she was superior to her peers disappeared.
After all, Kasumigaoka Shiu's starting point in high school life is higher than that of ordinary students. Her light novels can be published, her grades are among the best in school, her family is harmonious, and her appearance is even better.
For the first time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt frustrated among her peers.
So happy, so happy!
How about it! Do you feel how powerful my brother is?
Xia Qiu secretly became arrogant in her heart. Humility is necessary. Of course, as a young person, it is acceptable to be young and energetic.
Just grasp that degree and it'll be fine.
Although the work is from the previous world, I can copy it and retell it completely. Isn’t that my ability?
Again, if you can’t even copy it, I suggest you go to Shen Tokyo Bay.
"Judging from this plot alone, I am indeed not as good as my junior."
In other words, it should be far, far away. Even though Kasumigaoka Shiu's first light novel was a hit, the second volume fell into an extremely dull and boring stage. This made Kasumigaoka Shiu fall into a very anxious state. state.
Seeing that the delivery date is approaching, the second volume has not yet been written, which really makes Kasumigaoka Shiyu feel a bit at a loss.
"No, no, logically I should call my senior sister, senior."
Xia Qiu spoke in a friendly manner and took her cell phone.
"Hey, don't talk about senior. Kavinka has been feeling uncomfortable recently. He can't even write down his original thoughts."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu smiled self-deprecatingly, forget about calling her senior in front of Xia Qiu, it would be good if she could maintain her level.
"Senior, is this Kavin? Do you need me to give you some advice?"
Hearing this, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu nodded and played the second volume on his mobile phone to show Xia Qiu.
It is indeed feasible to have someone help you with reference and comments, which is better than doing it behind closed doors.
"It turns out that "Metronome of Love" was written by my senior sister!"
“You’ve seen it!!”
"No."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu is speechless, so why are you so excited? ! ! !
Needless to say, Kasumigaoka Shiu's writing style is very immersive, but the plot is a bit unsatisfactory, neither good nor bad, just barely enough.
This second volume... Although there are only tens of thousands of words, I can see how uncomfortable it is for Kasumigaoka Shiwaka to be stuck. These tens of thousands of words are like constipation and cannot be pulled out. Even if they are pulled out, it will be a lump.
No wonder this guy had such an embarrassed expression.
He almost read it very quickly, not as meticulously as Kasumigaoka Shiu read his own novel. It was unnecessary and meaningless. You can get a general idea from these tens of thousands of words.
Xia Qiu rubbed her temples with a headache.
"How about it?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't wait to ask.
"Although I don't want to say it clearly, what senior sister wrote is really a mess..."
Xia Qiu didn't say the next words clearly because they were extremely insulting.
"I haven't read the first volume of the senior volume, but based on the second volume, I can probably guess the plot of the first volume. First of all, the plot of the first volume should be very good, but the progress of the male and female protagonists is too fast, and it is very difficult. One obvious thing is that the progress is too fast, resulting in the second volume of Senior Sister without any branches and main lines that can promote the plot. "
"To put it simply, the plot is too bland. If the first volume is candies that can be eaten, then the second volume is just plain water, which makes people have no desire to read."
And as expected, Kasumigaoka Shiu's second volume was almost cut in half due to poor sales.
"I see. I also know that the male and female protagonists in the first volume progressed too fast, but other than that, I don't have a better solution."
Many novel writers only need to re-read their works after they are published, and they will find some unreasonable contradictions and bugs, but they have been published and cannot be changed even if they want to.
"There is a solution. I wonder if senior sister knows about it... bah bah bah, does she know about Bai Xue?"
