Chapter 819: Representative Who Harms Others but Does Not Benefit Himself

"Wait!" Before Sougo Toma could recite the answer to reading comprehension, Machida Enzi said angrily: "I don't want to be called pitiful and hateful by a guy like you, if it weren't for Shiha-chan You didn’t listen to me then…”

"Uh~!" Regarding this kind of afterthought, Sougo Toma followed the other party in a "good-natured" way: "Ms. Machida's resentment is really, really... ugh, it can be described as "unobstructed". Well, if Shiyu could know about Ms. Machida's full 'care' for her, she would definitely be 'touched' to the point of 'crying'..."

"What do you mean by that?" Machida Enzi was startled when she heard this. After she realized something, she quickly asked: "Tsuchima, do you know where Shiu-chan is hiding?" No wonder she was so eager. Ever since the influence of Kasumigaoka Shiu's final volume began to spread, not to mention readers, even Machida Enko, the editor, didn't know where Kasumigaoka was hiding.

If Kasumigaoka Shiu hadn't kept in touch with him on LONE, even Machida Enko would have been worried - Could Shiu have been abducted by those frantic readers?

But how could Machida Eonko extinguish the anger in her heart just by communicating on LINE? Readers can't find the original author Kasumi Shiko, so why can't they also find the editor of Fusigawa? There is such a big library there, how can a monk who can escape be able to escape a temple?

That's right, Kasumigaoka Shiu's final volume had almost no substantive impact on her except for her to move. On the contrary, Machida Enko... seemed to appease the readers, apologize and guarantee, etc., almost all of them It's up to her, the scapegoat, to come forward...

It can be said that Machida Enzi is bearing a weight that she should not bear. Every time at this time, she wants to point at Kasumigaoka Shiu and roar: "I told you to listen to me and you didn't listen. Are you okay now?"

However, Machida Enko also understands that ranting on LINE is of no use at all. As long as Shiu-chan, the sinister girl, deletes the message, her roaring can only disappear in the vast ocean of electronic networks. Only by finding Kasumigaoka Shiu, can she Yelling angrily in front of her, asking the other party to admit their mistake to her...

Only in this way can the grievances that Machida Enko has suffered for so many days be eliminated. But what she didn't expect was that Shiwa-chan would even keep it a secret from her!

Machida Enzi, who couldn't find anyone to vent her anger to, said: "..."

At this time, she was completely in pain and joy. After all, influence is influence, but the sales volume of Kasumigaoka Shiyu's final volume is increasing day by day. Those are real achievements. While the performance is increasing, the immortal is surrounded The readers of Kawamae also... In front of such a group of big readers, Machida Enko always feels weak, pitiful, and helpless!

Obviously, none of this should be endured by her, Shiyu...

Just when Machida Enzi's thoughts were racing, Sougo Doma's chuckle came from the phone again: "The meaning of what Ms. Machida just said seems to be that Shiyu is avoiding you? This is strange, Shiyu The sales volume of the final volume is so high. Logically speaking, she should be considered one of your ace authors. How could an ace author hide..."

"Tsuchima, why don't you come here! I don't believe you don't know how much Shiyu's final volume has caused..."

"Okay, I do know one thing..." Sougo Toma's smile continued: "But it has such a big impact, shouldn't you feel honored?"

"It's an honor?" Machida Enko almost burst out laughing when she thought that she had to appease readers, help apologize, etc...

"Of course, the greater the influence of the work, the more it proves the strength of the author?" Sougo Toma asked.

"It depends on the impact, like Shiyu..." It directly promoted the legislation of same-sex marriage, leading to the breakup of more than four-digit couples. In a country with an increasingly low birthrate, no matter how you look at this impact, it is... …

"NO, NO, NO..." But before she could finish her words, Sougo Doma interrupted the other party and said: "No matter what the impact is, it is an affirmation of the author's strength, just like the completion of a book. At that time, many readers committed suicide because of Werther's suicide. What can you say, Machida Enko..."

"Tsuchima, you don't think lightness can be compared with serious literature, do you?" Machida Enko said with a dark look on her face.

"Why not?" Sougo Toma asked, sighing again in his heart. Sure enough, this chain of contempt in the cultural world has always existed, and even editors in the industry are not exempt from it. He joked: "If Shiyu wrote If it's not light, but serious literature, then what she encounters now is not crazy readers, but countless praises, right?"

Machida Enzi: "..."

Although what Sougo Toma said is true, his joking tone is really unpleasant. Besides...

"Lightness is inherently different from serious literature..."

"What's the difference? Isn't there any nonsense in the content of serious literature? Isn't light enough to convey ideas?" Sougo Toma asked rhetorically.

"Even if you say so, but..."

"No, in fact, Ms. Machida should also understand that no matter how great the influence of Shiha's final volume is, it cannot increase dramatically day by day. The reason for this is just that people in the serious literary circle are behind the scenes."

"..." Machida Enzi was speechless.

"Ms. Machida, don't you think the serious literary world is starting to get timid?" The other party's silence just allowed Sougo Doma to speak freely: "It's just a trivial book, but it can cause such a big commotion. This is not true for those who claim to be orthodox in education." For serious literary circles, it is simply unimaginable and intolerable...

After all, serious literature is famous for exploring human nature, the relationship between people and society, etc., and conveying the author's thinking through these contents. But now, Shiha's final volume has achieved the same effect, or even better. Ms. Machida, Don’t you think people in serious literary circles are panicking? "

Machida Enzi was stunned when he heard this and said: "So what?"

"Please..." Sougo Doma said, "Editor Machida, this is an opportunity for Qing to develop again. If Fusukawa can promote it properly this time and make people aware of Qing's influence, then... " will gradually get rid of the bottom position of the contempt chain in the cultural circle.

In fact, it would be better to say these words to the chief editor on the mountain. However, Sougo Toma considered his current embarrassing situation. Although the Immortal River Library was still one of the properties he handed over to the Toma family, he now But after he left home, even if the editor-in-chief of Shanshan respected him, the person in charge of Immortal Sichuan would not dare not listen to what he said...

But if he really ordered the other party to do something again, not to mention that Sougo Toma felt like he was overstepping his authority, it would make him very unhappy if he was asked to come up with ideas for the industries owned by the Toma family!

As a representative figure who harms others without benefiting oneself - Sougo Doma believes that he has done enough!
