Under the lead of Ahn Yi-yeon, Mu Fan arrived at the lobby of Dengeki Bunko.
"Hello, welcome to Dengeki Bunko, how can I help you?"
As soon as the two of them entered the lobby of Dengeki Bunko, the receptionist in charge of the front desk wearing a black uniform walked over and asked Ahn Yi-yeon and Mu Fan with a smile.
"Excuse me."
Ahn Yi-yeon smiled: "I have already made an appointment with editor Acorus Kagura. Is she in the company right now? "
"Please wait for a moment."
The receptionist turned around, picked up the phone, and dialed a number. After asking who it was, she apologized to An Yilun and Mu Fan, "I'm sorry, but Editor Kagurazaka is in a meeting right now. Her office is on the seventh floor. You can go to the reception room on the seventh floor and wait for her there. The meeting will be over in a few minutes."
"Okay, thank you, we'll go there now."
"You're welcome!"
.....
After Ahn Yi-yeon thanked her, he walked into the elevator with Mu Fan and pressed the button for the seventh floor.
"Renya, what kind of person is this editor Kagura you mentioned?" After the elevator door closed, Mu Fan remembered the editor's name that Ahn Yi-yeon mentioned just now and couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Mu Fan's question, Ahn Yi-yeon asked in surprise: "Mu Fan, is this really your first time entering the light novel industry? You've never heard of Acorus Kagura's name? "
"Yeah." Mu Fan nodded.
Speaking of which, when he was in the Celestial Empire, he mainly wrote 2D novels, but now that he came to this world, it was indeed his first time entering the light novel industry.
This was the same as the best-selling light novels in this world that he had never heard of before. The light novel editors in this world were all names that he had never heard of before.
Ahn Yi-yeon explained: "Acorus Kagura, the famous editor of Dengeki Bunko, is in charge of some popular works. For example, the best-selling light novel "Fantasy Goblin Sword Legend" was written by her alone. "
"So these are the editors in charge of best-selling light novels."
Mu Fan was a little surprised, he didn't expect Ahn Yi-yeon to know such an excellent editor from Dengeki Bunko. Although this editor was excellent, she was more than enough to be his editor. But Mu Fan was still worried about one thing.
"Then, this kind of editor wouldn't not care about a novel author like me, right?"
Mu was a newbie, a newbie. in his memory, some editors with good achievements were very cold. Although they were excellent editors, if they didn't care about him because he was a novel author, it would be troublesome if they didn't take him seriously.
"Not at all."
Ahn Yi-yeon shook her head and explained with a smile: "Kagurazaka-san is a very easy-going editor, as long as she thinks that a work can pass the draft, she will be responsible for it seriously. Mu Fan, with the degree of brilliance of your" Accelerated World, "it will definitely pass the review of Dengeki Bunko."
"That's good."
Mu Fan was secretly relieved, a good editor was worth a lot of money, Mu Fan didn't expect that much, he just hoped that it wouldn't be too bad.
At this time, the elevator door opened, Ahn Yi-yeon brought Mu Fan out of the elevator and entered the editor's reception room.
The layout of the reception room was very simple. There was a clean and tidy desk and four soft chairs.
Because Editor Kagurazaka-San hadn't finished the meeting, Mu Fan and Ahn Yi-yeon simply sat on the chairs and waited quietly.
Not long after, the sound of footsteps came. Mu Fan looked up and saw a beautiful woman in her twenties. She was wearing a professional office lady uniform and had short hair that reached her ears. She was tall and slender. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lun Ye. I've been too busy recently because I've been in charge of many popular works. I've kept you waiting."
"It's okay, we just came here."
Ahn Yi-yeon stood up and said with a smile.
"This is the author of" Accelerated World, "Mu Fan -sensei, that Mr. Lun Ya-san mentioned on the phone before?"
After Acorus Kagura greeted Ahn Yi-yeon, she was slightly surprised to see Mu Fan beside Mu Fan.
Acorus Kagura was originally acquainted with the popular blogger Ahn Yi-yeon. When Ahn Yi-yeon recommended Mu Fan to her, she received the 30,000-word manuscript of "Accelerated World" from Ahn Yi-yeon.
In the industry, Ahn Yi-yeon was very conscientious when it came to light novels and anime, so it had accumulated a lot of popularity. Therefore, Acorus Kagura thought that a work that Ahn Yi-yeon recommended must have some good points.
After reading the first 30,000 words of "Accelerated World", Acorus Kagura felt that this book was extraordinary.
The writing style of "Accelerated World" was completely different from other gaming novels. It leaned more towards the sci-fi genre, but in terms of writing style and plot twists, it could be called this year's work with great potential.
Therefore, out of anticipation, she was eager to see what would happen next.
Acorus Kagura originally thought that Mu Fan was an older author to be able to write a light novel of this level, but when she saw Mu Fan's slightly young face beside Ahn Yi-yeon, she couldn't help but be surprised. Mu Fan should be in the same grade as Ahn Yi-yeon, right?
However, among the authors she was in charge of, a few of them were high school students who wrote best-selling light novels. For example, Sensei Murakami of "Fantasy Cursed Sword Legend" was one of them. After being an editor for so many years, she was only slightly surprised.
"Mm, hello Kaguraka-san, just call me Mu Fan. Also, I'm preparing to participate in this year's Dengeki Bunko novel award. "Mu Fan stood up and chuckled.
"Did you bring the rest of the manuscripts?"
"Yes."
Mu Fan opened his backpack and took out the printed manuscripts of "Accelerated World" and handed them to Acorus Kagura: "It's all here."
Acorus Kagura took the manuscripts with both hands and put them on the table. She turned around and took out two cans of cola from the freezer and placed them in front of Mu Fan and Ahn Yi-yeon.
"Is cola okay?"
"Yes, thank you."
"Okay, then please wait a moment. Let me look at the rest of the plot. " Acorus Kagura began to sit on the other side of Mu Fan and Ahn Yi-yeon and carefully read the rest of the plot of "Accelerated World".
Ahn Yi-yeon and Mu Fan, who came from afar, were also a little tired, so they didn't pretend. While Acorus Kagura was reviewing the manuscripts, they directly opened the can of cola and took a big sip to relieve their thirst.
Seeing that Acorus Kagura was seriously reviewing the manuscripts, out of politeness, Mu Fan and Ahn Yi-yeon didn't speak. They just sat on the other side and quietly waited for Acorus Kagura to finish reviewing.
In addition to the cold air of the air conditioner, there was only the sound of the three people breathing in the entire room.
Meanwhile, Kaoru Kagurazaka was reading the rest of "World of Acceleration" and was inwardly impressed by how excellent this light novel was. Although this light novel had some flaws at the beginning due to the fact that the main character was a fatty, this type of beginning would probably have an unexpected effect on many people.
But then, the plot progressed step by step without any sloppiness. Usually, it was a relaxed and cheerful day, but when it came to critical moments, there were no tricks or interruptions. The battle was also described very hot-blooded and lively. Most importantly, each character's personality was described very well.
In light novels, there would be a series of characters that people liked in some works, which was the so-called "buying stocks," "selling stocks," and "collapsing stocks."
So, in a lightly edited anime, there were actually people who would post things like "This is my wife!", "Your wife is in my arms!", "I've seen your wife's anime!", and "Your wife is awesome!".
In the light novel world, there would be a favorite "2D male and female lead ranking" every year.
Of course, these were all based on the characterization of the characters in a light novel. In a light novel, the plot could be slightly lacking, and the development could be unscientific, but the characters in the work had to have a clear personality and be likable.
In a light novel, if the characters you portrayed were annoying to the readers, how could it be successful?
"Accelerated World" did an excellent job in this aspect. The steady and generous Hei Yueji, the lively and lovely Xiao Qian, and the weak Chunxue who became strong little by little could all prove the success of the character creation of this novel.
Although the setting seemed a bit difficult, it was simply an inspirational story of a cowardly knight who became stronger little by little in order to protect his beloved princess!
Although it was simple, there was no lack of interesting light novel.
