The target is light novel master

Ying Lili looked embarrassed, and then reprimanded.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen for the time being. The cut line given by the editorial department has three volumes. If there is improvement during the period, it will naturally not be cut in half."

There was still a smile on his face, but his hands in his pockets were clenched tightly.

In fact, he was not as calm as he showed himself, but it was his choice to get to where he is now.

He chose a subject that suits him, instead of an easier one... So it should have been expected that he encountered such a predicament.

"...It's as true as it sounds."

After a few seconds of silence, Ying Lili stared into his eyes and finally muttered something.

Many works, even those made by newcomers, usually have extraordinary results in the early stage. If you want to rely on stamina to achieve the target, then it is not easy?

She is already a creator, and it's not that she doesn't know this.

Although she thinks that her childhood sweetheart's "Ghost Slayer: Blade" is well written, it's too easy to say how much it can be sold in the future.

But if it fails like this, it would be a pity, after all, it is Qian Yu's debut work...

Maybe she could try to do something.

She has become Kashiwagi Eri, and during this period of time, she has accumulated thousands of real fans. If she can mobilize them a little bit, she should be able to increase sales a little.

But how sure is that?

They are all LSPs who love to read gongkou books, are they really interested in this kind of semi-traditional passionate light novels?

this is a problem.

"Eri Pear...Eri Pear..."

"Ok?"

"Why did you suddenly lose your mind?"

"No, nothing."

Ying Lili's voice paused.

At this moment, the class bell rang suddenly.

So they hurried back to the classroom.

That night.

After Yingli returned home, she logged on to the Twitter account named "Kashiwagi Eri" that her mother applied for.

After nearly a year of operation, and two appearances at the Winter Comic Con and the Summer Comic Con, she has gained more than 5000 loyal fans, and she is still improving at a not slow speed.

As a rookie in the inner circle, his grades are not bad.

"Heh heh heh, I still need this lady to save you, Yaga Qianyu!"

Ying Lili muttered, and updated a new tweet.

No exaggerated words were used either.

Because if you blow the hype, fans expect too much, and if you are not satisfied after reading it, it will increase your disgust and leave vicious comments.

[Recommend the debut work of my friend 'Izumi Supreme', a series of more passionate light novels, everyone who is used to passion, maybe you will also like this kind of passion, right?It is called "Ghost Slayer: Blade", and it tells a story about the confrontation between humans and ghosts. I am very moved by the family, friendship and blood!I hope everyone can support it! 】

After a few seconds, Ying Lili stared at the computer screen and pursed her thin lips again.

No, this is simply not enough!

She pondered for a while, and seemed to have made up her mind, and finally issued another one.

[In addition, fans who have purchased works can send photos of purchased works to the bottom of this comment. At that time, I will randomly select three lucky fans and send them each a fan illustration, and the characteristics are determined by themselves Choose, whether it’s a bunny girl or other uniforms, it’s fine~]

This real benefit is the real lore!

Although this promotion method is simple and straightforward, it is very easy to use.

Especially for the dead houses of lsps, the temptation is too great.

You can DIY your favorite character, and then embody it with Kashiwagi Eri's painting style, that is simply a beautiful thing.

Compared with the hardcover version, a light novel in the library is not too expensive, but it is nothing if you just buy a copy.

Some people buy light novels for illustrations, and naturally some people buy "Demon Slayer: Blade" for this condition, even if they have no interest in the content of "Demon Slayer: Blade".

Ying Lili woke up early in the morning and suddenly found that there were many people's comments on her twitter, and 80% of them were concentrated on the second post.

"Oh, that's what you said, Mr. Eri Kashiwagi, I'm going to buy a copy online now!"

"Damn, the bookstore downstairs is closed. It's too late. It seems that I can only wait until tomorrow."

"A friend's work is worthy of the teacher's dedication? Could it be a good friend..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Teacher Kashiwagi Eri's name is of course a cute girl! How could it be a man!"

"Beautiful girl painters? Don't dream upstairs! Of course, men know what men want best! Those painters who claim to be beautiful girls invite people to their booths to increase the popularity during the comic exhibition, which is not true at all. !"

"Just to ask, can buying ten books increase the odds?"

"There are rich second generations haunting upstairs!"

"Hey, this is too tempting! Let the wife you like wear the uniform you like... the body will not be able to withstand it!"

……

"..."

Ying Lili was silent for a while, then closed the laptop.

Although no one is discussing the works of childhood sweethearts, but judging from the situation, the promotional methods I use are still effective.

That's enough.

She has done what she can, and the rest can only depend on him.

"That Baga, if he dares to disappoint my hard work, then I will definitely scold him severely!"

Ying Lili bulged her cheeks.

16 Then move on

"Mr. Izumi, I have some good news for you. This week's follow-up sales are very good. Although it is not popular, but the digestibility has increased. Next, the editorial department will consider increasing the circulation."

Sonoko Machida called again.

This sudden good news surprised Izumi Chiha, but at the same time felt a little confused.

"Why did the subsequent sales increase?"

"Mr. Izumi, don't you know? I thought you asked that Mr. Eri Kashiwagi."

"Huh? Eri Kashiwagi...it's my friend, but did she do anything?"

"Just look at Mr. Kashiwagi Eri's Twitter."

Hang up.

Izumi Chiha opened Twitter and saw the two messages sent by Ying Lili, and finally came to her senses.

This time it seems to be love.

"But that guy didn't say anything..."

He chuckled lightly, then dialed Yinglili's cell phone.

"What are you calling me for? I'm drawing a picture."

The voice of complaining came from the ear.

"Thank you, Mr. Kashiwagi Eri."

"Well...you know?"

"Of course, it's not that I don't know who Eri Kashiwagi is."

"That's not the problem!"

……

"Well, how's it going, last week's sales."

After a few seconds, she spoke again.

"Very good. According to the normal speed, after the first week, the sales volume will generally drop a lot, and then it can only be accumulated slowly over time, or driven by new volumes, but this week it has maintained a sales volume of more than 4000. It seems that the average volume Sales will soon exceed [-]."

Izumi Chiha replied.

"Hmph! This is all due to me, please thank me to the fullest!"

"Yes, yes, it's all thanks to Miss Sawamura! Miss Sawamura is the best!"

"...it makes me sick to promise."

Ying Lili felt that her skin was about to get goosebumps.

"Come on! I hung up, I have to continue drawing."

She hung up the phone directly.

Then, Izumi Chiha told Sagiri the good news, lest she be too worried and affect her mood.

"Really? Sister Yinglili really helped a lot!"

Sagiri is happy in the way of color.

"Of course, this is only a temporary improvement, which is equivalent to one more recommendation. Whether it can be stabilized depends on the follow-up reaction, especially the next second volume is the focus of our attention."

He reminded him a little bit, which was also a wake-up call to himself.

Although the sales volume has indeed increased, after all, this method cannot be used forever, and there will be a limit after all.

The only way out is to improve your ability.

"Hmm... If I could draw better, if I could be as charismatic as sister Eirari, maybe it would be different."

Sagiri's tone was low.

"Sagiri, don't go overboard! This is our work, and it's definitely not just Sagiri's fault. Don't blame yourself like this. Illustrations can affect sales, but the content is the key. Those works that are criticized are actually the same. It satisfies the preferences of many people, and there are still a small number of people who have too much money and nowhere to spend it.”

Izumi Chiha comforted her.

No matter how satirized those vulgar brainless and different world harem works, it finally met the expectations of one person.

I like the works of harem, and I like the illustrations of astringent, is there really something wrong?

no.

It's all a market choice.

"However, this level alone is definitely not enough, I still need to continue to improve."

Sagiri raised her head, and her gaze, which was as condensed as water mist, became even more determined.

"Then let's work hard together, Sagiri."

Izumi Chiha touched her head and nodded in relief.

In the next half month, although the sales volume declined, it was still gratifying, and this was already after Eri Kashiwagi's promotional rewards, which shows that the stamina of "Demon Slayer: Blade" itself is reflected.

Apparently, some readers who were satisfied with the content 'preached' to their friends and successfully pulled in a group of new readers.

One morning.

"Editor Machida, I would like to ask when the next volume will be published."

Izumi Chiha contacted the beauty editor again.

"Generally speaking, it is a volume every three months, but in fact, many people will update at a rate higher than this frequency, or even stop updating directly... For example, to update new works on the grounds of lack of inspiration, Mr. Izumi, you But don’t learn from them, as a middle school student, I’m satisfied as long as you update before the deadline.”

Sonoko Machida answered this question.

"One roll every three months...can it be faster?"

Izumi Chiha's tone seemed a little impatient.

"It's not impossible, Mr. Izumi, do you want to shorten the time? But, your studies don't matter, right? There will be pressure from your parents and teachers."
