Female-dominated society: A beautiful boy from the countryside near Tokyo

Chapter 121 Speculation, Newcomer

"I remember my auntie seemed to own a comic book company."

Hoshino Makoto's right hand rested on the computer mouse, his face filled with reminiscence.

"I think it's called Star Moon Comics Company?"

Hoshino Makoto remembers the first time he met Shimizu Setsukatsu in the countryside.

To prove she wasn't a bad person, Shimizu Setsukatsu showed Hoshino Mako a picture of her mother, Hoshino Mako.

And her basic information: she is the owner of two companies, one a comic book company and the other an entertainment company.

"I visited Auntie's entertainment company last time; it's called Snow Moon Entertainment Company."

"So I must remember correctly, my aunt's comic company is called Star Moon Comics Company."

Hoshino Makoto immediately typed his aunt Shimizu Setsukatsu's name on the computer.

The next moment, a familiar electronic photograph appeared in front of Hoshino Makoto.

Below the digital photo are also various basic information about the photo's owner.

Shimizu Setsukatsu, female, 32 years old.

President of Snow Moon Entertainment Company and Star Moon Comics Company.

"I wasn't mistaken after all. Since Xingyue Comics Company belongs to Auntie, let's invest in Auntie's company."

"But before that, let's take a look at the reputation of Star Moon Comics Company."

After Hoshino Makoto learned that Shimizu Setsukatsu owned a manga company.

He wanted to submit the modified version of the comic book "Burying Frillian" that he had signed up for to Shimizu Setsugeki's company.

Hoshino Makoto believed in the potential of the revised version of the manga "The Burial of Frilian," but manga works and companies are mutually reinforcing.

If a comic book company has a poor reputation, it will also reduce the popularity and reach of its comic works.

It may even provoke resistance and disgust from readers, and could also affect the author's reputation.

Soon, Hoshino Makoto found information and reviews about Hoshizuki Comics on his computer.

"My aunt's comic book company has a good reputation online, and quite a few people think it's worthwhile."

"In that case, let's just submit it to Auntie's comic book company."

After reading the online reviews of Shimizu Setsukatsu's Hoshigetsu Comics company.

Hoshino Makoto decides to submit his revised version of the slain Frillie manga to Hoshizuki Comics.

"But before that, I should think of a username for a comic book artist."

Hoshino Makoto's gaze fell on the six large characters "Star Moon Comics Company" on the computer screen in front of him.

"Let's call her Yuexing, Yue from my aunt's name and Xing from my own name."

Hoshino Makoto quickly came up with his own manga artist name and didn't dwell on it too much.

In his view, as long as your work is good enough, even if your name is not good, people will remember it.

Moreover, Hoshino Makoto felt that the name he came up with wasn't bad, it was just a bit too simple.

"We have the comic book, the name, and the comic book publishing company."

"Next, I'll submit the article directly."

Hoshino's fair face was filled with obvious excitement and anticipation.

. . . . . .

Star Moon Comics Company.

"Is it already ten o'clock? Time flies so fast."

"I was just thinking of looking at a few more comic drafts before leaving get off work, but I didn't expect it to be this late already."

In the editorial office, Shimizu Yuzuki got up from her chair and lazily stretched.

The dark-colored company uniform shirt perfectly showcased her ample chest, making her look even more charming and dashing.

Shimizu Setsukatsu looked around at the now empty surroundings, then walked to the French windows and glanced at the night outside.

In the distance stand several brightly lit high-rise buildings, and not far below are various convenience stores and snack shops.

Even though it was already 10 p.m., the streets of a big city like Tokyo were still bustling with people.

"Let's check if any more drafts have been submitted. If not, we can go home."

Looking at the bustling scene, Shimizu Yuzuki stretched a few times and made comfortable sounds.

Shimizu Yuzuki decided to check if any new manga drafts could be submitted to the company computer.

If there's nothing else, she'll just leave work and treat herself to a meal.

Shimizu Yuzuki returned to her seat from the window: "Another first draft of a manga has been submitted."

As soon as Shimizu Yuzuki sat back down in her chair, she saw a notification on the computer screen in front of her.

Moreover, there was more than one notification, indicating that several more first drafts of comics had just been submitted to her office computer.

Looks like I'll have to wait a while longer before I can get off work.

Shimizu Yuzuki patted her cheeks to try and look more energetic.

Then click the mouse to start viewing the submitted first draft of the comic.

"The storyline is unacceptable, and the character designs are also unacceptable. It's rejected."

Shimizu Yuzuki looked at the first draft of the manga she had opened.

Her brows furrowed on her handsome and pretty face, then she simply clicked the mouse to close the furrow.

"The character drawing is not good, but the storyline is okay, but it's still a bit lacking."

"Have her revise it and then submit it again."

Shimizu Yuzuki looked at the second draft of the manga and quickly gave her evaluation.

She typed a reply on the keyboard, asking the other party to refine the character drawings and plot before sending it back.

Shimizu Yuzuki then opened the third first draft of the manga.

"The storyline is good, but the character illustrations are not."

"Have her refine the portrait drawing before submitting it."

Soft light shone on Qing Shui You Yue's furrowed brows.

She skillfully provided evaluations and feedback on these initial drafts of the comics.

Under her guidance, she quickly read through all the first drafts of the comics that had been submitted.

"Just like before, only a few first drafts of comics can be approved after revisions."

"But that's understandable, since most of the comics submitted to the company's editorial department are creations by newcomers."

Shimizu Yuzuki sighed, picked up the coffee that was placed next to her, and took a sip.

Just then, Shimizu Yuzuki, who had just taken a sip of coffee, saw another message notification appear on the computer in front of her.

"Another comic strip submission? I hope this one is of a higher standard."

Before opening the first draft of the manga that had been submitted, Shimizu Yuzuki put down her coffee cup and, as usual, glanced at the email containing the manuscript information.

It contains the author's real name or pen name. In the Tokyo manga industry, some people directly use their real names as the names of their manga authors when submitting their work.

However, some people use pen names as their comic book author names when submitting their work. There is no difference between the two; it all depends on the individual comic book author's personality.

"Moonstar? That must be a pen name."

"A pen name with only two characters, that's really unique. The author must be a newcomer."
