I'm a Light Novel Master in Japan

Suddenly, Sawamura Sayuri noticed something, her eyes opened slightly, she squatted down, her black and beautiful hair almost touched the ground, and she was surprised to see that this rose flower seemed to be touched by someone. , To make matters worse, it seems that the soil has been slightly opened to check the roots of this rose flower.

This made her feel a little rough and uneasy. She dug again with her hands. In the depths, she found the discarded item again. It seemed that the other party did not dig deep, and the item was still quietly buried in the soil. Made her breathe a sigh of relief.

"...It's very dangerous."

After Sawamura Sayuri relaxed, she couldn't help but laugh a little.My reaction just now seemed to be a little rude. I clearly felt that my concentration should not be so bad, but I was still afraid that someone would find out the secret she wanted to hide when she was busy with her own business...

Sawamura Sayuri had just calmed down, and when she raised her head slightly to look again, she realized that a certain person seemed to have sneaked out to cut the branches of the roses in the criss-crossing withered vines.

"Well, this old thief..."

Sawamura Sayuri showed a slightly surprised expression, looking at the part that was taken away, which belonged to the last trace of life of this rose, she gradually stood up again, standing in this cold and bleak air, her expression gradually returned to normal .

After thinking quietly for a while, she stretched out her hand with a happy smile and gently stroked the broken rose.

"Thank you, I feel a little better..."

She smiled slightly, looking at the bright and white sky in front of her, the cold wind blowing her lonely figure, holding an antique fan, standing quietly.

Even so, even doing so, it seems that the original rose flower cannot be resurrected again...

……

Next to the window, there was a small plastic flower pot, and several rose branches were inserted into the soil. With the heating and humidity in the room, they silently waited for the moment when they sprouted again.

As a result, at 7:25, five minutes before Li Yan woke up, he was woken by a knock on the door by Sawamura Sayuri's assistant.

After all, he was just recovering from his body, and he almost couldn't get out of bed. Li Yan hurriedly brushed his teeth and washed his face while dragging his exhaustion, and then came to the restaurant on the second floor.

For breakfast, it seems that Sawamura Sayuri has already eaten it. There is a breakfast on the simple white dining table, including bread, jam, and a cup of black tea.

Li Yan narrowed his eyes, judging from the degree of burntness of the bread, it should have been baked by Sayuri Sawamura herself.

After reluctantly eating the smelly bread, Li Yan hurried down the first floor. In the lobby on the first floor, Sawamura Sayuri, who was sitting on the sofa and drinking black tea elegantly, saw Li Yan, and immediately frowned. Smiling, he said hello, "Good morning, Uesugi-sensei."

"Morning, Miss Sawamura."

Li Yan was a little surprised. He originally thought that even an elegant and charming girl, if she was a deep house, would not be able to escape the magic circle of sleeping in in the winter, but now it is not. The other party obviously wakes up for a long time and waits here. long time.

Xiaobaihe noticed something, and then she smiled, looked at Li Yan and asked, "Hey, it looks like you have dark circles under your eyes, did you not sleep well last night? Did you cause insomnia in a new environment?"

"No, it's just that my body is still a little weak, and I usually get up five minutes earlier, so I'm a little sleepy, but I'm already asleep, please don't mind."

Li Yan shook his head and said to Sawamura Sayuri.

"...Well, that's good, I'll have to work hard for you today, Uesugi-sensei. Now that you're ready, let's go right away. I have to send you back to Chiba for work before twelve o'clock. Otherwise, I'm afraid that your eldest lady boss will kill you directly."

Sayuri Sawamura said with a smile.

"Uh, that's too exaggerated."

After being teased by Sawamura Sayuri, Li Yan said helplessly.

"Okay, since we're all here, let's go."

Sawamura Sayuri put away her fan, looked at the three servants in front of the hall, and said quietly.

……

Japan's illustration industry, as once mentioned by Ying Lili, is almost at a saturation stage. While the competition is fierce, it is facing the continuous shrinking of the domestic market.

After decades of development, the animation industry has almost become the endorsement of Japanese culture. However, the prosperity must decline, and the same is true in the field of animation. Facing the shrinking market, opening up new markets is an urgent task for painters. .However, after all, foreign illustration work is a bit out of place for Japanese painters. The European and American industries have their own unique illustration styles. Even to a certain extent, in the era of Japanese comics, there are still many white people who are quite opposed to Japanese animation culture.Therefore, for the European and American markets where the cultural gap is too large, Japanese painters cannot fully open the door as expected.

However, with the re-emergence of China and South Korea, the two eastern countries, some new changes have begun.

In recent years, especially in China, the demand for illustration has been increasing day by day, and the mobile game industry has progressed rapidly. Many games have begun to enter a big game country such as Japan and become very popular. Companies from China are looking for excellent Japanese artists to be responsible for illustrations. Work is naturally a matter of course, and it undoubtedly injects a new market vitality into the saturated artist circle.

As a famous painter Sawamura Sayuri, who has had multiple pseudonyms for many years, this time she naturally has a new job... Although the painter named Sawamura should be very famous, but Li Yan, a newcomer to light novels, does not know How many names of famous painters.

The main commercial district of Kyoto.

This morning, the contract meeting started on time. Compared to Li Yan's studio representing Sayuri, the Chinese game company personnel on the other side were also quite young.

After a moderate conversation, Li Yan and his assistant began to review the terms of the contract, relying on the industry practices that he was able to come into contact with when he lived in his own country, as well as the life he once wrote on the Internet and a half-house. Through experience, Sawamura Sayuri gradually gained some initiative in many discussions, which made the following assistants understand that Sawamura Sayuri's choice was not just to sell favors, but to really confirm that Li Yan, as a popular novelist, could play a role. to great help.

After about an hour of talks, the contract was signed smoothly.

Sawamura Sayuri's studio earned millions in design compensation from this collaboration, and she quickly remitted the promised [-] yuan to Li Yan.

"Okay, it's really hard for you, this time the negotiation went well, let's finish today's work. Speaking of which, Uesugi-sensei, your Japanese is very admirable, and you are also very good at English. I'm really surprised that you can understand the English part of the contract... By the way, I never asked you how your exam went, how is it, do you know which university you want to go to now?"

When she came down from the building floor, Sawamura Sayuri habitually tapped her chin with a fan. She turned one eye and closed the other when she turned her face to the side. When she smiled, she was so charming and moving, attracting working men and women in suits. , asked curiously.

"Understood, I didn't get into my ideal department. I originally planned to go to the Faculty of Literature, but ended up being admitted to the Faculty of Science. Currently, I plan to study at the Department of Physics at the University of Tokyo."

Li Yan replied bitterly.

"Well, it's not bad as long as you get into a good university... Wait a minute, what university did you say you got into?"

Sawamura Sayuri, who had been able to say what she had thought in her heart with ease, suddenly realized something, looked at Li Yan with some astonishment and asked.

"The Department of Physics at the University of Tokyo... what's wrong?" Li Yan was slightly taken aback and asked.

"……nothing."

Sawamura Sayuri blinked and said with a smile.

But she was a little shaken in her heart. After all, from Li Yan's words just now, it sounded like she thought she had just been admitted to a normal university, which was just in line with her expectations. She was looking forward to Ying Lili, who had average grades, to be admitted to the same university in the future. A university that would allow Yingri, who has no friends, to live without pressure, but suddenly she got stuck on the name of the University of Tokyo, and all the plans she outlined came to nothing.
