"Three copies?" Chiba Zhu twitched, A Zhai's money is really easy to make.

A light novel physical book is about [-] yen, and three books are [-] yen.

"Mr. Qianye must read it carefully, this is really a very good light novel."

"Really? How's the sales?" Chiba Nagisa nodded and asked.

"In terms of sales volume, there are only about [-] copies. Teacher Xia Shizi has only published the first volume. Teacher Xia Shizi will release the second volume's signing event next weekend." An Yilun also thought about it and said.

"The grades are not very good..." Chiba Zhu couldn't help shaking his head when he heard An Yilunye's words. The first volume has only [-] volumes, which is really good for a newcomer, but there is still a danger of cutting in half.

Depending on the author's qualifications and reputation, as well as the agreement with the publisher, there will be slight differences in the royalty share, but basically 10% of the book price is a relatively common standard.

Different from ordinary novels, Japanese light novels are usually published in the form of small and cheap library books, usually priced at about 600 yen, which means that for every book sold, the author can get 60 days RMB pre-tax royalty income.

The first volume sold [-] copies, and the profit that Kasumi Shiko can make is about [-] million yen.

This is only the first volume, about [-] words.

Converted into Ruanmei coins, it is almost [-] yuan.

For newcomers, it's really good.

But it’s still not enough. At least each volume has to sell [-] copies before it will be cut in half. If there is no book, it is very likely that it will be cut in half.

(Note: In the real light novel industry, an average volume of 1.5 volumes is regarded as an average level, an average volume of 5 volumes can be classified as a bestseller, and an average volume of more than 10 volumes is a big hit. If the average of the first three volumes is 3 volumes Then there is the possibility of animation. Those who sell millions are the big names in the industry, but...after seeing Mr. Eromanga...the industry's standards should be raised. Every time it is a million, or even a thousand A million-level boss...)

"The main reason for this is that the illustrator is too bad. He didn't show the character's character and characteristics at all. If Teacher Xia Shizi can change to another illustrator, the sales will definitely go up." The son began to fight against injustice.

As a new writer, where can I find a good illustrator?

How could some bigwigs in the industry help a newcomer writer draw illustrations?People don't want to have a meal?

Chiba Nagisa shook his head, not very optimistic about the author of this book, sometimes the reality is so cruel, I hope this young newcomer writer can withstand the blow of the work being cut in half.

The work that I poured my heart and soul into was cut in half, which is still a big blow to the newcomers.

Light novels are not the same as Chinese web novels. Light novels will be accompanied by illustrations, but web texts are purely text.

Therefore, for light novels, the impact of illustrations on grades is also very important.

Many well-known illustrators will be invited by industry leaders to help draw illustrations and covers for their light novels.

The illustrations and cover of this "Love Metronome" are quite satisfactory, and the drawing is neither bad nor bad.

For light novels, good illustrations will add a lot of points to light novels, but after all, it is still necessary to design characters and plots to attract readers. Some works that are mediocre and on the verge of being cut in half will sell like crazy once they are animated or gamified There are a lot of people in the works.

What's more, even if it's a plot, the characters are set up extremely well, and if the promotion is not in place, it will also affect sales.

If you are a well-known industry leader, you naturally don't need to consider these things, but for newcomers, promotion and publicity are really extremely important.

Because no matter how good-looking a work is, others can't see it, and it won't have any effect, unless the book really has such a great charm that fans can spontaneously promote it.

This kind of person is generally a talented player, who can become a big boss with just one book.

Chapter 96: The Girl on the Rooftop

The threshold for light novels is actually very low. No matter if you are a high school student or a junior high school student, you can write light novels. At least Chiba Nagisa listened to An Yilunya's introduction. There are many junior high school students in the industry who have debuted Write, and the best-selling author is here.

For example, an author named Yamada Goblin, who was only in the second year of junior high school, sold one million copies of his debut work "The Dark Fairy of Explosion Flame", with an average sales volume of more than [-] volumes, which can be said to be very popular.

Moreover, it has been animated and gamified, and the income of just one light novel has reached hundreds of millions of yen.

The [-] volumes have only reached the edge of not being cut in half, and there is still a long way to go before the hot sale.

"In short, I will definitely support Teacher Xia Shizi. Such a good work should not be cut in half! Mr. Qianye will also support me, right?" An Yilun also looked at Chiba Zhu with full expectation.

"..." Chiba Nagisa nodded expressionlessly, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs.

The same is true for light novels. To succeed, timing, luck, and one's own strength are indispensable.

To write a light novel, one must have the mentality of being cut in half.

Who has never been defeated in life?Get up wherever you fall, never give up, and strengthen your ideals are the only way to success.

Life is full of flavors, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty.

How can you see a rainbow without going through wind and rain?

After sending An Yilun away, Chiba Nagisa looked at a brand new light novel on his desk. There were only the first [-] characters of the first volume on the Internet, and the latter [-] characters needed to be purchased in physical form to read.

Anyway, I have nothing to do during my lunch break, so let's take a look.

Chiba Nagisa flipped to the progress he was watching before, and continued to watch.

As the number of people in the class continued to increase, it also seemed a little noisy.

Chiba Nagisa frowned slightly, and glanced at the time, the lunch break would be over in twenty minutes.

Holding the novel in his hand, he walked up to the roof of the top floor. Chiba Nagisa was surprised to find that there were benches on the roof. Generally, students are forbidden to enter the roof of a school, let alone a place for people to rest. The benches are gone.

At this point in time, the rooftop was already empty. Nagisa Chiba was sitting on the bench. The sun in April was very warm, making people feel a little lazy. It's very quiet, but it's a good place to go.

Leaning on the bench, basking in the sun, blowing the wind, and reading physical novels, this is the way to open up a normal life!

After watching for a short time, crisp footsteps sounded, and a graceful figure came out from the iron gate of the roof.

The long black hair like a waterfall flutters, and the white headband at the front exudes a lovely atmosphere. No matter how many times you look at the graceful curve, it is attractive enough. A pair of round legs wrapped in black silk have a mature allure .
