My quadratic is absolutely abnormal
Chapter 192
: Novel Sales
After resting for a day, the next day, Su Jie came to meet at the street near the Dengeki Bunko Headquarters Building according to Kasumigaoka Shiwa’s agreement.
Su Jie had already arrived ahead of time. At that time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu and Machida Sonoko arrived earlier than Su Jie. The two were resting on the roadside bench. Their beautiful faces and exquisite curves made passers-by unable to resist. Avert your gaze.
“I’m not late.” Su Jie touched his nose and walked over quickly.
“No, we came early.” Sonoko Machida stood up with smooth short hair, walked past her long legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings alternately, and said, “Su Jun, you are the author of “Story Novels”. I don’t care at all! If Xiaoshi hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t even know you didn’t know about it.”
“Uh! Actually, I attach great importance to it, but I’ve been a little busy recently. Look, I heard the news and came here immediately!”
Su Jie covered his face. If Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu hadn’t told him, Su Jie would not have known that “The Story of the Story” had already been put on shelves and sold in bookstores all over the world.
If other light novel authors, let alone forgetting, I’m afraid they would like to squat at the door of the bookstore, waiting for the new book sales 24 hours a day, and check the sales situation at the first time. At least no one will forget the time like Su Jie. Su Jie can do it like this It is said to be a wonderful work among light novel authors.
“This guy would rather be busy drawing manga and making anime, and still maintain a high-yielding writing speed. It belongs to a mechanical typewriter with a face-rolling keyboard.”
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu snorted coldly at the side, and there was inevitably a trace of envy in his words. Not everyone can write as fast as Su Jie, and the monthly delivery starts at 300,000 yuan. This is because Su Jie is busy with other things. Because of the little time allocated to writing.
“This is a talent that you can’t envy.” Su Jie said, still has the advantage of memory from his previous life. Su Jie said he created a novel, but in fact he just copied and printed it out. As long as he is not handicapped, he will fly quickly.
“Su Jun is still a manga artist, um, it is true that manga requires more effort.” Machida Sonoko arranged a reason for Su Jie.
As long as Su Jie can complete the manuscript of the novel on time every month, so that “Denshock Library” can benefit, then Su Jie’s attitude towards writing is not so particularly important.
“Miss Machida, don’t make excuses for him. He has a casual attitude at all. If he can put more energy into novels, his reputation will definitely not be inferior to that of cartoonists.”
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu waved her hand, stood up and said, she looked at Su Jie with complicated eyes, as a novel creation with Su Jie’s common “hobbies”, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu hoped that Su Jie would love this industry, but unfortunately now it seems , Su Jie’s talent is super strong, but his attitude is far from the word love.
“The cartoonist is also good! You see, if I didn’t know how to draw, no one would be able to draw your novel illustrations, Shi Yu, to satisfy you. We are your exclusive illustrators. Are you making yourself Is the standard of illustrators lowered?”
Su Jie curled his lips. This is the current situation in Japan. The manga industry is much better than light novels. The influence of the former far exceeds that of the latter, and the same is true for the animation industry. Su Jie attaches great importance to the three. From low to high is in the order of novel-manga-animation.
“Editor Machida Sonoko, alsoLet’s talk about the sales of “Story Novels”, isn’t that what you asked me to do? ”
Su Jie pointed at himself, thinking in his heart that the sales of “Story Novels” must be doing well, otherwise Machida Sonoko would not pretend to invite him to come over for a meeting.
“The first novel of the Monogatari series, Hua Monogatari (Part 1), has sold a total of 25,000 copies as of yesterday, successfully topping the weekly light novel sales list.”
When Machida Sonoko told the data, Su Jie opened his mouth wide in surprise, not daring to answer: “How much? 25,000 copies, so many sold in a week.”
Su Jie was extremely shocked. In the previous life of Hua Monogatari, a total of hundreds of thousands of copies were sold, and there were also new volumes of the Monogatari series that sold 100,000 copies a week, but that was based on the accumulated popularity of the Monogatari series and the author’s personality. Popularity, as well as animation promotion.
Su Jie is different. He is still a newcomer in light novels. Even though he has confidence in Huamonugatari, he does not expect to sell them in a week after they start selling. It’s all right.
“It’s been less than a week, and it’s only been sold for five days.” Editor Machida Sonoko couldn’t stop the smile on his face when he was talking, and he seemed much happier than Su Jie. Well, as Su Jie’s editor, Su Jie’s novels are selling well, so she can get more bonuses, including opportunities for promotion, so she is naturally worthy of happiness.
“Isn’t this even more exaggerated? I remember that I’m still a newcomer.” Su Jie couldn’t stop talking. Could it be that the “Den Shock Library” publishing house is so powerful? It doesn’t seem right! The strength of this publishing house is at the upper-middle level in Japan, and I chose to join because of Kasumigaoka Shiwa to a large extent.
“This Mr. Su, you have to thank Shiyu.” Machida Sonoko pouted towards Kasumigaoka Shiyu, and said, “Before the Huamonuyu (Part 1) novel was on sale, Xiaoshi had already started to promote you. At the autograph event, the soliloquy on the end page of the new book, and his own publicity on the Internet, Xiaoshi’s reputation is quite high now, and many readers have flowed in through the publicity and bought the Huamonu novels.”
Only then did Su Jie realize that it was Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu who was helping, and turned his head to look at Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu.
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu had no expression on his face, and folded his hands on his chest to the side. Thinking about talking back to Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu in front of him, Su Jie couldn’t help feeling guilty and embarrassed.
“By the way, Su Jun, your new book sales are so good, we plan to hold your exclusive new book signing event at the beginning of next month. This will help increase your popularity, and…”
“No, I won’t participate.” Su Jie waved his hand to interrupt Machida Sonoko’s words. Su Jie would definitely not do it if he had to show his face at the autograph meeting. Even Su Jie did not reveal his identity in the comics, and the novel must be kept secret. At least Su Jie doesn’t want to be famous and show his face now, disrupting his peaceful life.
“That’s it! Well, we respect the author’s decision.” Sonoko Machida sighed regretfully, but Su Jie disagreed, and she had no choice. These were all signed in the contract at the beginning. Without Su Jie’s approval, exposing Su Jie’s identity would be Defaulted.
For authors, especially those who can bring sufficient benefits to the publishing house, the editor will seriously consider the author’s opinion, because fundamentally, the relationship between the author and the editor is never a relationship between a boss and a subordinate, but a cooperative relationship.
