Chen Shunchen, the master of historical reasoning, praised Maijo Keisuke, although it was not as explosive as Toru Miyoshi and Takao Tsuchiya.
But I don’t know why it hit the lungs of Hiroyuki Itsuki, the representative of contemporary Japanese literature.
Itsuki Hiroyuki adjusted his square-rimmed glasses and snorted coldly:
"Teacher Chen, don't speak only half of your words!"
"Mr. Masashi Yokomori once said that mystery novels should fly into the sky, but Mr. Seicho Matsumoto also said that mystery novels should be down to earth!"
"In your opinion, the development of mystery novels depends on trickery and logic, but in my opinion, mystery novels must follow the path of Mr. Matsumoto Seicho in the future."
"I'm not talking about socialism or personality-changing style, or SF-type science fiction reasoning, but literary nature!"
"Always engaging in factional disputes is very childish behavior in my opinion."
"Anyway, the purpose of the Climbing the Dragon Award is to select a flag bearer who will have influence on future generations, so why not choose based on literary qualities."
"Although Izawa Motohiko's literary talent seems a little immature at present, it is far from the crazy feeling of Maijo Keisuke."
"But if I were to choose, I would still support Izawa Motohiko's solid quality."
"Because the madness between the lines of Maijo Kyousuke's words is really terrifying, as if there is a devil whispering in my ear!"
"If such a person really wins the Climbing Dragon Award this time, I really don't know what weird things he will write next time!"
Takao Tsuchiya and Chen Shunchen expressed their support for Maijo Keisuke to win the award, while Toru Miyoshi and Hiroyuki Itsuki believed that Motohiko Izawa is the best person for the Dragon Climbing Award!
The four judges each chose their own positions on the stage, and the result was an astonishing 2-2 tie!
With this situation of a draw, the four of them naturally focused their attention on Gonda Manji who was standing aside!
Because at this moment, the most important vote is in the hands of this master of reasoning and commentary!
After all, Gonda Manji is a mystery critic and a well-known figure in the entire mystery world. Not only did he write the famous "On Japanese Detective Writers" to introduce many mystery writers, but he also influenced many well-known editors!
It can be regarded as the "Edogawa Rampo" of Japanese critics!
If you can get the girdle he wrote, it will definitely increase the sales of the work by hundreds of thousands!
Gonda Manji saw the four people around him staring closely at him, and the hundreds of Kodansha staff in the audience also looked at him. After pondering for a moment, he put his hand on the manuscript of "Astrology Killing Magic" and said:
"If I were asked to subjectively choose who is more qualified to win the Climbing Dragon Award, I would definitely choose "Astrology Killing Magic" by Kyousuke Maijo without hesitation!"
"As teacher Chen Shunchen said, reading "Astrology Killing Magic" made me feel like my feet were leaving the ground and flying into the sky!"
"Similarly, I finally understand why other people's books are called 'Events' and this book is called 'Magic'."
"Because Mr. Maijo Keisuke, no, I should call him Mr. Maijo Keisuke from now on!"
"Teacher Kyousuke Maijo has really created a huge conspiracy that has never been done before and will never come after!"
"I can predict that once "Astrological Killing Magic" is published, this book may be on the world's mystery rankings fifty or even a hundred years from now!"
As soon as Gonda Manji finished speaking, there was an explosion-like sound from the audience in the conference room!
Nearly half of the Kodansha staff stood up and clapped and cheered happily!
Needless to say, these are naturally the people who support Kyousuke Maijo's "Astrology Killing Magic"!
Uyama Hiideomi is the editor of Maijo Kyousuke.
The person who discovered Maijo Keisuke jumped up when he heard Gonda Manji's approval, raised his fists and shouted like a child:
"Teacher Wucheng! Long live!"
"Astrology has the strongest killing magic!"
The deafening cheers seemed to knock off the roof of the entire conference room!
Even the two masters of reasoning, Takao Tsuchiya and Chen Shunchen, on the stage, all showed happy smiles.
Eryumi is the magazine editor-in-chief of Maijo Kyousuke, and she is the one who recently took over Maijo Kyousuke.
After learning that Maijo Kyousuke's "Astrology Killing Magic" finally won the Dragon Prize, Eryumi also picked up Eryumi and cheered happily! ! !
But before Jiang Liumei could say a few words, she heard Gonda Manji turn on the microphone on stage and let out a heavy sigh:
"Although Mr. Maijo Keisuke's "Astrology Killing Magic" allowed me to see the future of true reasoning, his writing style, tricks, and even thoughts can also be praised as the standard bearer of the new era."
"But I still want to vote for Izawa Motohiko's "Sarumaru's Vision"!"
As soon as Gonda Manji's words came out, not only Uyama Himideomi in the audience, but Eryome Meili and others were all stunned.
Even Takao Tsuchiya and Chen Shunchen frowned in displeasure. They had no idea what Gonda Manji was doing!
Chen Shunchen, who had never broken his face, suppressed the anger in his heart, stood up from his seat, walked to Gonda Manji, turned off the microphone in front of Gonda Manji, and then questioned him with uncontrollable anger. road:
"Gonda Manji! What the hell are you doing?"
"You said you admired Maijo Kyousuke, but in the end you voted for Izawa Motohiko?"
"What do you think of the Edogawa Ranpo Prize? Your own home!?"
Chen Shunchen pressed his hand on Gonda Manji's shoulder and patted it hard:
"Gonda Manji, let me tell you! This is Edogawa Ranpo Shou, not your home!"
"Don't think that just because you can influence the critics, you can dominate the literary world!"
"I, Chen Shunchen, are not as weak as others!"
"If you want to play house, fine, but please go home and play!"
"This is not a place for you to act wild!"
Chen Shunchen's words were a bit harsh, which made Miyoshi Toru feel a little dissatisfied.
Because Gonda Manji is the judge he invited, even though he doesn’t understand what Gonda Manji is doing?
But as the chairman of the Japanese Mystery Writers Association, I must not let Gonda Manji be scolded by Chen Shunchen!
"Teacher Chen, brother Quan Tian has his reasons for choosing this way, but what you just said is indeed a bit serious..."
"Shut up!"
Before Miyoshi Tetsu finished speaking, Takao Tsuchiya on the side suddenly interrupted Miyoshi Tetsu:
"Sanhao, you don't have the right to criticize others, do you?"
"Do you think I can't tell that I'm old? Look at the lineup of judges this time?"
"You and Mr. Chen Shunchen write about historical reasoning, Hiroyuki Itsuki writes about popular literature, and Manji Gonada writes about reasoning and commentary."
Takao Tsuchiya pointed at his wrinkled nose and said viciously:
"It's just me! I'm the only one who writes literal reasoning!"
"If Mr. Chen Shunchen hadn't supported me, would you have wanted "Sarumaru Vision" to pass with four votes?"
Takao Tsuchiya imitated what Miyoshi Toru had done before, slamming the table hard, and then pointed at Miyoshi Tetsu with his red and swollen palm and asked:
"I keep moving out of your house at every turn. The chairman of the Mystery Writers Association came out to talk about it!"
"Isn't it just bullying that I don't have enough status? Isn't there anyone in my original sect?"
"If you really like ranking based on seniority, would you like me to invite Teacher Takagi Binguang over?"
"If you feel that Teacher Takagi Binguang's status is not enough, would you like me to bring over Teacher Masashi Yokomori who is undergoing surgery in the hospital?"
"I want to see if Mr. Masashi Henggou is here, do you still dare to use your lousy chairman to suppress him?"
Although all the microphones on the stage were turned off, everyone in the conference room was silent, and the five judges were arguing loudly.
Everyone knows that this time the five of them may have to fight to the death for their own factions!
