Murakami arrived at the hotel where Shen Xin was located at about 7:40 in the evening, but did not let the front desk staff contact Shen Xin until 7:50.

After receiving the call, Wang Wenhong informed Yan Fei in the restaurant to ask the chef to prepare the dishes ordered in advance, and then went to the restaurant on the first floor with Shen Xin and Xi Muhan.

With Toru Murakami, there was also Chire Otani, the head of the editorial department of "Shoun Leap". He was a fan of Shen Xin after "Soul of the Game", but he had never seen Shen Xin.

After learning that Murakami had met with Shen Xin this time, Otani took the initiative to follow along without hesitation.

Shen Xin is also a best-selling cartoonist in District 11. Although he rarely visits District 11, Xiaogu has seen his promotional photos.

When I saw Shen Xin this time, Xiaogu was also taken aback. Shen Xin was younger than the picture.

"Ms. Shen, it's been a long time." Murakami bowed slightly when Shen Xin came in.

When discussing the introduction of "Soul of the Game", he had been to District 11, that is, at that time, he had a relationship with Shen Xin.

After Yan Fei translated, Shen Xin also nodded deeply, "Long time no see, two teachers, sit down first?"

Five people sat down first, and Wang Wenhong ordered the waiter to serve the food.

Yan Fei ordered Western food, and the dining time will generally be longer. Everyone can take advantage of this time to talk about things.

In fact, with the exception of Xi Muhan, the other three people have had contact with Murakami. After a brief greeting, the two parties quickly entered the subject.

"I was so sorry for not being able to attend the teacher's wedding half a year ago. At that time, I was on a business trip. When I learned about it, the wedding had already ended." At this point, Murakami took out an envelope from his pocket. , Passed it to Yan Fei, "My personal feelings, please don't refuse."

Wang Wenhong lowered his head, listening to Murakami Toru.

He is also learning Japanese in private, but he is certainly not as proficient as Yan Fei, so the person who is acting as an interpreter this time is still Yan Fei.

Shen Xin nodded slightly, and Yan Fei took the envelope, then passed it to Xi Muhan.

Murakami saw that Xi Muhan accepted it, knowing that the incident was revealed, and asked: "Mr. Shen, how long have you been in District 11?"

"It's about three or four days, right? I've been touring around Tokyo before, and I only came to Tokyo in the last two days." Shen Xin replied.

"It turned out to be like this." Murakami nodded, "Actually, Teacher Shen can tell us that everyone is also a friend."

"Because I am a friend, I dare not bother editor-in-chief Murakami. I know how busy the editor is. To work, some editors even live in the manga artist's studio. I can no longer mess with the editors." Shen Xin waved his hand quickly.

"It depends on who it is. If it were Teacher Shen, we would definitely not feel troubled." Murakami Toru also smiled slightly.

Xiaogu touched the scum on his chin and looked at Shen Xin.

In fact, he had a lot of things to ask Shen Xin, but it was inconvenient to say more because Murakami was by his side.

After chatting briefly with Toru Murakami, Shen Xin picked up the wine glass, "Two teachers, the dishes are cold, everyone should have a drink first?"

Murakami Toru and Otani also raised their glasses, and touched them with the person sitting there.

Shen Xin drank it all, and Wang Wenhong poured the wine again.

"By the way, Editor-in-Chief Murakami, what's the matter when I came to see me this time?" Shen Xin asked when Toru Murakami had just put a snail in his mouth.

Murakami said through his heart, it's time to come.

"Ms. Shen's last book "DN", we actually had a chance to win, but the manga action was really too fast, and we missed a chance to cooperate. It's a shame." Toru Murakami was lightly napkin. He wiped his lips, and then said, "I only learned the news of Teacher Shen's arrival in Tokyo today, so I immediately contacted the teacher for just one thing. Can the teacher's new work be serialized in "Shoun Leap"?"

Straightforward, without any muddle-headedness.

Shen Xin stared at Toru Murakami, and when he saw that he was also looking at himself, he chuckled lightly.

"Editor-in-chief, you are too anxious." Shen Xin sat down and said, "I haven't returned to Hongchuan yet. Moreover, even if there is a new serialization, I will have to prepare for a while, and it will take the middle of next year at the earliest. Now ask me this. It's really too early."

After listening to Shen Xin's words, Murakami's heart moved.

Ryoto Yamagishi has already released the news, and there will be no new works next year. At most, he will draw one or two short stories.

For best-selling book authors, whether it is Ryoto Yamagishi or Shen Xin, they actually earn enough money to spend the rest of their lives. As long as the booklets are sold, they will always make a profit.

Therefore, after becoming famous, many cartoonists will choose a simple path. Either they will consider new works after an interval of four or five years, or they will be the original artist of a game company.

Shen Xin said that the new work will come out next year, and this speed is already very fast.

Last time, he missed "DN" because Shen Xin's new book serialization was too fast. This time, in any case, he could not make such a serious mistake.

"Mr. Shen, it's not early at all. I know exactly how I missed "DN" last time." Murakami patted his hands on the table with a serious expression, "This time, I must not let that happen again."

Otani was taken aback. He hadn't seen Murakami so persistent for a long time, even with anxiety in his tone, but he could understand Toku Murakami's thoughts when he thought of the situation where "Shoun Leap" had fallen below 4 million volumes.

The serialized "Soul of Goss" and "Steel Refining" serialized on "Shoun Leap" both broke one million volumes, and the single-line volume of "DN" serialized in comics also exceeded 900,000 volumes.

Even in "Shoun Leap", there are only a handful of cartoonists who can achieve this kind of performance, even if it is closed or closed.

Shen Xin's appeal in the 11th district comic market has not lost to Ryoto Yamagishi~lightnovelpub.net~This matter... Editor-in-chief Murakami is better to contact "ComicFuture". "Shen Xin smiled.

"No." Murakami shook his head and his eyes were firm, "I want the teacher's lower work to sign a contract with "Shoun Leap"."

If it is an introduction, "Shoun Leap" will have to pay an additional sum of money to "ComicFuture" and make room for Shen Xin's comics to be published, which is not very cost-effective for "Shoun Leap".

"So..."

After hearing Yan Fei's translation, Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, and then fell into long thoughts.

Otani suddenly felt nervous.

For most cartoonists, it is absolutely rare to be able to serialize in "Shoun Leap".

Murakami personally invited him to explain that as long as the quality of Shen Xin's future works is acceptable, the resources that the magazine invests in Shen Xin's new works are definitely far more than other comics-Haruka Tamagawa's "The Strongest Pitcher", and there is definitely no such treatment.

So... promise?

Otani stared at Shen Xin, but saw Shen Xin say a few words to Yan Fei.

After Yan Fei nodded, she translated Shen Xin's words into Japanese.

"I am very happy to be recognized by the editor-in-chief, but I think I...may refuse."

Toru Murakami, who was waiting for Shen Xin's answer, his face suddenly changed when he heard these words.

Otani was also surprised, and said aloud: "Why? Teacher, can you give me a reason? What's not good about "Young Leap"?"

"Shounen Leap is the best platform in District 11, so the treatment for cartoonists is also very good, but the conditions I put forward, "Shounen Leap" may not agree. Instead of this, it is better to give up." Shen Xin explained.

Murakami and Otani looked complicated, but they were curious about what conditions Shen Xin would have.
