How to Develop a Sick Brother Control

-----------------------------Dividing line------------------- ----------Forcibly suppressed his emotions, and after returning home, Kazuya focused all his attention on the possible evaluation of his novel, and he first paid attention to, This is the comment of Lunya, who has a close relationship with himself and Shi Yu.

And Lun Ye's light novel review didn't make him wait too long.

"Although this is Kazuo Aragaki's debut work, I don't want to treat Kazuya Aragaki as a pure newcomer. After all, both Mr. Marudo and Mr. Genbu Mibuchi have learned from Kazuo Aragaki in their works. The author's previous works have been confirmed by the author through some special private channels. At the same time, as far as I know, Aragaki and the teacher have also written some scripts for a popular doujin galgame, so his writing skills There is no need to question.

Therefore, for Aragaki and the teacher, the biggest problem he faces is actually a problem of transformation.

Whether it is the rumored "Magic Girl Madoka" or "Blank Album 2", the one thing they have in common is that the whole text is shrouded in a depressive atmosphere. Although the styles of the two depressions are different, the content of the two is different. They all tend to be serious, which makes the author's impression of Aragaki Kazuo as the author of serious works. It is not surprising that such authors turn to the creation of romantic comedies in pursuit of marketization. However, can the transformation be successful? , is a big problem.

Of course, Aragaki and the teacher gave me a rather beautiful answer.

As we all know, in daily light novels, the portrayal of female characters is a key factor for the success of the novel, and Mr. Aragaki has inherited his excellent performance in "Magic Girl Madoka" and "Blank Album 2" in this regard. Although the lack of a specific inner monologue makes people feel that the characters are not three-dimensional enough, but for a light novel with only one volume, it can create the poisonous tongue of social phobia Sanriyueyesky, the unexpected arrogant queen Kashiwazaki Xingna, these two opposites. It's not easy to play female characters and use this to advance the plot.

At the same time, the 'unpopular' badness of the protagonist Hanasegawa Kita and his anti-social attributes are also the highlights of this work.

Of course, there are also certain problems with this novel. Although the almost fixed club template of the daily campus class and the plot of finding members are traditional and safe, my expectations for the works of Aragaki and the teacher actually do not stop there. In addition, some The routineization of the fixed comedy plot also shows the problems that Aragaki and the teacher must face as a writer in transition.

But on the whole, none of these issues are harmful, and I highly recommend this novel. "

"Lun Ye, this guy is still showing mercy to me!"

Looking at Lun Ye's article on the evaluation of his own novel, Kazuya smiled, and it can be seen that Lun Ye, as a senior otaku, is not very satisfied with the specific daily plot in "Youth of Friends", but in the evaluation He only took it for a while, which is enough to show his support for Kazuya while trying to remain neutral.

"Then, the evaluation of Shi Yu-senpai's novel is coming out soon, right?"

Speaking to himself, Kazuya looked at Lunye's next comment:

"No matter what words I use, I can't reflect my feelings for Teacher Xia Shizi's new work."

Seeing this title, Kazuya's heart was more than half cold, and being able to make Lunya say such an evaluation, he felt that his chances of winning had become slim.

"The second volume of Teacher Xia Shizi's "The Streets of That City" inherits the excellent and emotional writing characteristics of Teacher Xia Shizi as always.

Somewhat unexpectedly or not very unexpectedly, the heroine who appeared in the second volume is the protagonist's younger sister, Haruka. In the writings of Teacher Xia Shizi, Haruka's attachment to her brother and her seemingly helpless abandonment in the end make people's entire feelings Dedicated to sympathy for my sister, of course, fortunately, Teacher Xia Shizi left us a scene at the end that Haruka did not give up, which gave us a certain prospect for the future plot.

At the same time, the confrontation between the two female protagonists who have already appeared is also unexpectedly rapid. At the end of the last volume, we felt that the two people who had already begun to withdraw their troops, and the re-competition under the intervention of the sister, also made people feel I have to remember the tragic situation of the competition between the two parties in "Metronome in Love". I believe that as the plot progresses, Teacher Xia Shizi will bring us more exciting stories.

Therefore, if I were to rate this work of Teacher Xia Shizi with reference to "Metronome in Love", I would give it 95 points. Teacher Xia Shizi gave full play to the characteristics of her delicate emotional description here. ——However, if it is the first volume of "The Streets of That City" to grade Kasumi Shiko-sensei's second volume, I don't want to give her a passing score. "

Lun Ye's last pungent comment made Kazuya, who was almost in despair, stunned.

"All the advantages I mentioned before are the advantages of Teacher Xia Shizi, but these are only the advantages of Teacher Xia Shizi, the advantages of the novel she showed in "Metronome in Love", "That City" "The Street" is positioned as a light comedy, and her first volume also implements this line. Although some bridges are vulgar, we at least know that Teacher Xia Shizi is making this innovative attempt.

However, in the second volume, we can't feel the atmosphere of light comedy at all. Whether it is the confrontation between the heroines or the addition of the younger sister, all I read is only a faint shroud in the full text of Teacher Xia Shizi. depressive atmosphere, and an increasingly tense atmosphere of antagonism.

I don't know if Teacher Xia Shizi didn't grasp the core issue when he created the second volume, or the editor didn't review this issue. I still think this is an excellent novel, but it's not an excellent novel. This is also the reason why I am reluctant to give the second volume of "The Streets of That City" a passing score - as a fan of Kasumi Shiko teacher, I am sorry that she appeared in this novel seriously The mistake, that is, there is no clear positioning of the novel! "

Kazuya stared blankly at Lun Ye's evaluation. He hadn't seen Shi Yu's new work, so he couldn't make an accurate assessment, but he believed that Lun wouldn't lie on this issue. If this is the case, it means that Shi Yu has inadvertently left a huge loophole for himself.

In any case, I can't believe how Shi Yu, who had vowed to fight against him at that time, and who is still confident of his victory in the daytime, made such a big mistake, and Kazuo also can't imagine that he is known for his shrewdness and ability. Editor Machida actually committed such a big review problem at this time, but there is no doubt that in this battle that he seems to lose, because of various coincidences, the gap between himself and Shiyu has been greatly reduced. .

And the huge controversy over the second volume of "The Streets of That City" has also begun to heat up on the forum.

"This is what Teacher Xia Shizi should really write, go to hell with the idiotic light comedy style of the first volume!

This is our favorite teacher Xia Shizi. "

"But you can't deny that this is a huge mistake made by Teacher Xia Shizi. Even she herself said in the previous interview that she wanted to take the innovative route. Isn't she slapped in the face this time?"

"Yes, we like Teacher Xia Shizi's works, and we can understand the problems she committed during the transition period, but this does not mean that I can accept a novel with a completely different style in the first and second volumes."

"Speaking of a romantic comedy, the other "My Few Friends" published at the same time can be tried by everyone. There are quite a lot of bright spots, but the shortcomings are insignificant."

"Is there a navy upstairs?"

"Anyway, I put the recommendation here, just thought of it by the way."

"It is said that the author and Teacher Xia Shizi know each other, but unfortunately they are not in the same library, which is a bit strange."

"Kasumi Shizi-sensei just jumped to mystery, and Fantastic launched that Aragaki Kazu-sensei, with a strange intention!"

He also did not continue to read the various comments in the forum, but in general, he already had an impression. First of all, regarding the sudden change in the style of Shi Yu's novels, the forum once again showed a trend of polarization, and the fans were very controversial. This is bound to arouse the suspicion of other people buying it. Second, because Shi Yu’s novels are unexpectedly different from his own in style, many readers who are inclined to read romantic comedies begin to pay attention. The power has also been transferred to his own work.

It means that, in this wave of publicity, although the evaluation of "Youth Young Master" itself is only good, not particularly amazing, but because of Shi Yu's own mistakes, the possibility of his novel occupying the market atmosphere has become greater. .

"This time, I really have a chance."

He secretly clenched his fist, and Kazuya raised his spirits.

"However, what happened to Shi Yu-senpai?

Having made such a serious mistake, let’s not talk about the specific creative state. Have so many editors in the huge library of Mystery really didn’t find it?

In other words, how should the current Shiba-senpai and editor Machida deal with such a situation? "

However, after that, Kazuya still shook his head and forcibly brushed off his worries about Shi Yu:

"What are you thinking!

Use this opportunity to go to the library, strengthen the opportunity to publicize, and defeat Shi Yu-senpai, this is the most important thing, right? "

After all, I am now in a desperate situation!

So, Sister Shiyu, although I don't have high expectations, I still hope that you can understand my thoughts at this time, right?

Also, Eiri, I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, but I'll be back soon, everything will be fine, I believe.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The debate about Shi Yu's new work is still going on on the Internet. It is not a good thing for Shi Yu to have a debate. After all, as a popular writer in the limelight, for Shi Yu, the best way to promote Still use the undoubted word of mouth to defeat all competitors, but obviously, Shi Yu made a mistake here.

Without the existence of the spoiler like Heya, Shi Yu's situation might be better, but with the same

"Depression turned light comedy"

The contrast of Yu and Ye's works magnifies the controversy of Shi Yu's novels.

Even online

"It's also a transformation. Why did Aragaki and the teacher do so well as soon as they debuted, but Teacher Xia Shizi didn't do it well? Is this because Teacher Xia Shizi is standing still?"

Such an offensive post, and attracts a lot of comments.

He also doesn't know whether these similar criticism posts were formed spontaneously, or whether the fantastic library was hyping it up. Judging from the large-scale temporary publicity of the fantastic library before, the publicity department of the library is using these almost It's still quite a set, so Kazuya also feels that this kind of naked comparison and criticism is very likely to come from the library. Of course, in this case, although he has offended Shi Yu, he has A vague sense of guilt, but he remained silent in this regard.

After this situation fermented and changed for a week, mystery library finally responded to Shi Yu's work.

"Teacher Xia Shizi believes that the focus of her writing is to create works that satisfy her the most. If she blindly pursues market effects, then Teacher Xia Shizi will not have the current high-quality achievements."

This is the official explanation given by Mystery Library, which basically means that the library has acquiesced in the fact that Shi Yu’s new work is not a light comedy. Mystery Library’s approach is a rather ruthless one, and it decisively discarded that part. Because of the readers who have fantasies about light comedies, they use this life to consolidate the existing readership that Shi Yu himself has formed.

"Creating Satisfactory Works"

Although his speech is very unfavorable for attracting new fans, it will at least stabilize Shi Yu's existing fixed fan base, and as long as Shi Yu's existing fans are not lost, although he will not be able to be in the opening game of the mystery library. Get a nice start, but at least a solid outcome is guaranteed.

However, this also means that Machida and Shiyu have actually accepted the result that their first shot was unsuccessful. Next, the status of the airborne two people in the mystery library will be greatly doubted. Now, Kazuya believes that if Kirino's novel is handed over to Mystery Bunko at this time, Machida will not be able to play that decisive role.

Of course, Kazuya, who has completely torn his face with Machida and Mystery Bunko, will not consider re-submitting to Mystery Bunko. His attention has already been cast on Fantastic Bunko, because, a week later, the initial sales of the novel has come out.

-------------------------Dividing line----------------------- --

"Mr. Aragaki, congratulations, the sales volume in the first week was 2 copies, which is already an amazing result for a rookie writer. You must know that the sales volume of Teacher Xia Shizi's novels in the first week was less than 1000 copies. , almost cut in half!"

Editor Qingwu greeted Kazuya who came to the editorial department with a smile on his face, and said excitedly,

"Just now, the editor-in-chief asked me to discuss about the publication of Mr. Aragaki's next novel. The editor-in-chief said that if Mrs. Aragaki needs it, he can find a more famous illustrator. Moreover, the first print volume of the next novel will also be It will be improved, and the publicity work in the early stage will be more fully done.”

Kazuya reluctantly looked at Qingwu, who wanted to shake out all the good news, shook his head and said:

"Another question, what is the sales volume of Mr. Xia Shizi's works."

"Uh, this one,"

Editor Qing Wu frowned and said,

"Although we have not received specific information from the Mystery Library, according to our estimates, Mr. Kasumi's decimal sales volume is about 25000 copies, which is still more than Mr. Aragaki, but considering the basic value of Mr. Kasumi's popularity It's much higher than Aragaki-sensei, so I don't think Aragaki-sensei should be too concerned about this number—"

"—It's okay, I know, I didn't expect to surpass Shi Yu in sales - well, Teacher Xia Shizi, if my sales are [-] copies, her sales are at [-] copies. It's victory."

Kazuya interrupted Qingwu's apologetic speech and said. ——Of course, a cannon fodder can play such a big blocking role, and it is still better to open the way for the work of the sister control who will appear next. This time, mystery library is ambitious and wants to debut in a new field. , the final result is not very satisfactory!

However, for me, the results of all this are not the purpose. Now, this achievement should at least give me a voice in the editorial department, and at least recommend the editorial department to review a novel, right?

Kazuya also thought secretly.

"Uh, Mr. Aragaki, so your opinion is to start preparing the outline of the second volume of "Youth Young Master" right now?

Or--"

"—Before that, can I meet the editor-in-chief?

After all, I was also the writer in charge of him before, so it's not difficult to meet him now, right? "

Kazuya sighed and said.

"Uh, since Aragaki-sensei thinks so."

Qingwu looked at Kazuya with some worry, but in the end, he honestly conveyed Kazuya's thoughts.

--------------------------------Dividing line---------------- ----------Meeting with the editor-in-chief was much easier than He also imagined. Although he somewhat anticipated the role of cannon fodder that "You Shao" might play, the extremely tenacious combat effectiveness of this cannon fodder was still The editor-in-chief is very happy, although Machida has already changed jobs, and Kazuya's success cannot be a direct means for the current editor-in-chief to fight against competitors, but after all, it was he who made the plan to publish Kazuya's novels after all. , This unexpected achievement also gave him, who had just settled down as editor-in-chief, a capital to show off from the beginning. Therefore, when He also took the initiative to request to meet him, the editor-in-chief narrowed his eyes. The slitted eyes are naturally not false.

And He Ye's side-by-side expression

"If possible, I would like to recommend a novel to the editor-in-chief for publication"

His suggestion was also recognized by the other party. At least, apart from the series of crises encountered on the day the novel was published, Kato's suggestion to Kazuya is being carried out in an orderly manner. Next, we only need to convince the editorial department to publish Kirino's Novels, in Kazuya's view, this is not difficult. Publishing popular mobile phone novels or online novels is not difficult in itself, and being abandoned by mystery library is more likely to be a great tool to persuade the editor-in-chief. Under the circumstances, Kazuya finally called Kirino for the first time since the publication of Kirino's novel failed.

According to the news obtained by Ayase, Kirino has at least become less enthusiastic about using mobile phones recently. This obviously reduces the time for updating mobile phone novels, although Kirino, who is no longer addicted to mobile phones, seems to Ayase. The state has changed, but Kazuo also understands that the failure of the novel's publication will definitely not only hit Tong Nao on the surface, but also the exhaustion of her creative enthusiasm. Terrible thing.

Therefore, when he called Tongno, Kazuya was prepared to refuse to answer his call, but he was also prepared to use all his thoughts to tell her that he had won her a new opportunity. .

However, unexpectedly and unexpectedly, there was no silent rejection as imagined, Tong Nao quickly answered his call, and even, from her calm tone, Kazuo didn't seem to hear much. The depressed mood, which also had to make Kazuya sigh with emotion that this girl's character of showing her best side in front of others has been deeply rooted in her bones.

"He, um, Aragaki-senpai?

Hello, what can I do for you? "

However, Kirino's obvious unfamiliar name for himself and the sense of distance he deliberately showed made Kazuo realize that the other party rejected and did not forgive him.

"Sorry, Tong Nai, it took so long to call you to explain it."

After a long silence, Kazuya decided to get straight to the point and pointed out the topic with Kirino.

"It doesn't matter. In fact, I can almost guess what Aragaki-senpai did that day. I like the gift that Ayase gave me."

"Ah, that's it!"
