"If Mr. Bai wants to write a second volume recently, could you please publish the first draft in the Asahi Shimbun?"
"This is also something that the company has been paying attention to recently."
"After all, the release of the second volume will also promote the sale of the first volume..."
When the members of the Asahi Shimbun saw that Bai Gui had collected the envelope and didn't immediately open the money, he was a little impressed. The five thousand yen was really not that small, at least it would be difficult for him to save it if he didn't eat or drink all his life. Seeing this
With a huge sum of money, it is difficult for someone to maintain a high moral integrity.
Even though I know that a newspaper as big as Asahisha cannot cheat on some money...
This amount of money is just a small amount of money for Asahisha.
"Sorry, as for the manuscript, I still plan to publish it in the Democracy Newspaper. I am also the editor-in-chief of the Democracy Newspaper..."
Bai Gui immediately rejected the suggestion.
If his first article chooses to be published in the Asahi Shimbun, then Asahi Shimbun will definitely increase its proportion on the newspaper page, and even highlight it, which will make it more famous.
Although it was first published in the Asahi Shimbun, it was not much space and was mixed in with many others, making it inconspicuous.
In this way... it is much better than publishing it in the Democratic Progressive Newspaper, and it is not just sporadic.
However, Bai Gui did not intend to do this. Firstly, he is the editor-in-chief of the Minjin Daily and has a background in the newspaper, so he can provide the greatest resource support. Secondly, the Minjin Daily is equivalent to his old employer, although he and the Minjin Daily have no relationship.
No matter what contract you sign, the behavior of "dislike the poor and love the rich" will not have many consequences on the surface, but behind the scenes, it will also make people frown and feel that he is an untouchable person...
For a small profit, there is really no need to do this.
Not to mention that when he first came to Japan, Liu Xueyu secretly asked the newspaper to take care of him, gave him the maximum salary, and opened all the doors of convenience for him.
This kindness cannot be offset.
"That's really regrettable."
The members of the Asahi Society sighed and didn't pay much attention to it. This was originally a test of Bai Gui by the Asahi Society. If it succeeds, they will try their best to support it. If it fails, they won't be too demanding.
Compared with this, he also admired this kind of integrity. Not everyone can ignore the olive branch extended by Asahisha.
Short-sighted people are not unintelligent, but the temptation is too great.
"Although I will not publish the first draft of Daqin Empire in Asahisha, I will give priority to Asahisha in the future. Please forgive me."
Bai Gui said more official polite words.
…
After seeing off the members of the Asahi Club, Bai Gui took a shower and prepared to go to No. 1 High School.
He was sitting in an open carriage and had just reached the intersection out of Tokyo.
Then I heard a familiar voice ringing next to my ear.
He quickly asked the coachman to stop.
Looking back.
"Hey! Great writer, I meet you again."
Mitsuko Yamada was sitting in another carriage, still dressed as yesterday, smiled at him, and then waved.
This carriage is relatively luxurious and is for private use. It looks much more upscale.
"Miss Photon, are you waiting for me?"
Bai Gui asked the coachman to drive the carriage closer and asked.
"no!"
Yamada Mitsuko shrugged, showing a frustrated and helpless expression, and said: "I was originally studying at Kyoto Women's High School. This time I sneaked to Tokyo. My father scolded me last night, saying that since I like it so much
Tokyo, then you might as well come to Tokyo to study so that you can control me. I am already in my second year of high school and am about to graduate..."
"Originally, I was going to Kyoto University..."
"So I was forced to go to No. 1 High School to find the school and apply for a spot directly into Dongda University."
Bai Gui was also stunned after hearing this.
It turned out to be a chance encounter.
That's right, this is the smoothest, safest and fastest road to Hachioji City.
There are other paths, but ordinary people don’t go there much.
At this time, Japan had two best universities, Tokyo University and Kyoto University, both Imperial Universities. Tokyo University ranked first, while Kyoto University was second.
It is normal to apply to the First High School. Apply directly to the University of Tokyo... It attracts so much attention from the outside world that it is difficult not to be noticed, and the First High School is the only university where you can directly enter the University of Tokyo after graduation.
In officialdom, the exchange of power is all roundabout.
Went directly to Dongda University and the food was too ugly.
"In Kyoto, it's too repressive. At Tokyo University, the atmosphere is more pioneering and enterprising."
Bai Gui consoled him.
Universities are all similar, and there are not many differences. But if you insist on having differences, there are still differences, and they have to do with the city style. Kyoto is inevitably a little behind compared to Tokyo, which is on the edge of the Pacific Ocean at this time, that is, the customs tend to be
keep.
Two carriages drove slowly.
"Great writer, Mr. Bai, haven't you noticed anything yet?"
"I entered Dongda one year earlier than you. Logically speaking, you should call me senior!"
"Yamada-senpai! Mitsuko-senpai can do it..."
Mitsuko Yamada brushed her long hair that fell on her shoulders, showing a teasing expression, placing her hands between her legs, sitting in a very elegant posture.
Last night, she heard the scolding from her father Mitsuo Yamada. She had not originally planned to come to Tokyo University, but if she insisted on speaking out, her father would obediently send her back to Kyoto. But when she thought about her favorite home suddenly becoming her junior,
This feeling is quite wonderful... I simply agreed.
It's boring. The worst thing is, I'll just go back to Kyoto.
"Senior?"
Bai Gui frowned and took a look at Yamada Mitsuko again. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. Girls are more precocious. The age estimate cannot be too wrong, so Yamada Mitsuko should be one to two years younger than him.
He is now seventeen years old in real life and eighteen in virtual age.
Mitsuko Yamada comes from a wealthy family, so she should go to school earlier than other people of the same age.
For example, even though both Tanabe Ryuko and Higuchi Kazuyo are students of Tsunosha, Tanabe Ryuko is also Higuchi Kazuyo's senior, but she is much younger than Higuchi Kazuyo. This is due to her family background.
People with good family background will start their education early!
"Yes! Senior!"
Yamada Mitsuko softly said "hmm", her beautiful eyes flashed with light, and she nodded heavily, and then looked at Bai Gui on the other side with great expectation, hoping that another senior would come out of his mouth.
It also satisfies her vanity.
"Sorry, I can't scream!"
Bai Gui immediately refused. It was too awkward.
If he really met a strange female student who was younger than him at Tokyo University, it wouldn't matter if he called her "senpai".
Nothing to be embarrassed about.
But I met an acquaintance and asked him to sign an autograph yesterday. Today I asked him to change his name to senior...
This is impossible, it would be too shameful to say it out loud.
Mitsuko Yamada: "..."
Seeing the disappointed expression on Yamada Mitsuko's face, Bai Gui comforted her again: "Miss Mitsuko, you don't know that in the first high school, there is no one who dares to call me senior!"
With his force intimidating him, there are really not many people who are ignorant.
