I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 684
Ying Lili narrowed her eyes and stared at him, and said: "Your influence in the light novel industry has become extremely strong. You are simply the leader recommended by various [light novel names]. Many of the Writers Association have won county-level awards." The young writers who won the Akutagawa Prize are very upset. One article after another has begun to debate you. I even heard that the writers who won the Akutagawa Prize are planning to invite you to the TV station to debate literature. Ue, Sugi, Lao ,thief……"
"..."
The cold wind on the balcony blew quietly at this figure who looked confused and his body seemed to have lost all color. At this moment, his fame did indeed expand rapidly... He even expanded to the point where he could go on TV to break up with the writer of Japan's Akutagawa Prize. wrist……
Such good things and status...not every light novel writer can enjoy.
When Li Yan's thoughts were in confusion, the thing he was most worried about was how much the sales volume of his upcoming 12th volume would be reduced by such news...
※※※
Surprisingly, for Jump and Sanwa Bunko, who are familiar with market and public opinion operations, the effect of this strategy is quite significant.
On March 21, the long-awaited final volume of "Super Academy War" was finally sold in designated major bookstores at nine o'clock in the morning after a delay.
The sales volume of the 12 volumes of "Super Academy War" in the first week of its release was 67,536, firmly ranking first in the sales list in March.
This popular passionate novel that had been planned to produce a fourth season of animation for a long time has finally come to an end after two years of serialization...
After the Jump incident, fans of Uesugi's books were naturally quite dissatisfied with Uesugi's attitude in the interview. However, when the cover of the final volume was determined to be painted by Shin Hei Ningning, relying on the excellent quality, the final volume was finally accepted. Loyal fans bought into it, setting a record for the highest weekly sales of a single book, the only time it exceeded the sales of volume seven.
Among them, Jump's advertisement has attracted many new readers to join. Some readers directly skipped the middle plot and bought the final volume to determine the final plot content, and then decide whether to buy the whole series of works. This phenomenon of skipping reading is becoming more and more popular. It is quite common in the reading market.
In March, such a unique phenomenon occurred: No matter how harsh the remarks Uesugi said before, they all disappeared after the final release of volume 12.
After playing through the plot for several volumes, the final ending turned out to be a Happy End.
The 12-volume plot completely reveals the deepest part of the Dark Continent and the origin of the fairies that give humans superpowers. The complete world view is finally unified, and the battle description and design are still excellent. The true strength of the alliance chairman is also finally described. The most anticipated part. The battle between the old enemies brought the climax of the entire plot, and basically did not make the mistake of not being able to control the excessive expansion of the power system, and filled in all the holes that needed to be filled.
After the exploration of all worlds, superpowers completely disappeared from the human world and were replaced by the sprouts of a new era of science. In the final volume, the love between Xinheng Ningning and the male protagonist was finally completed after 11 volumes of torture. As a result, the male protagonist finally expressed his love to Xinheng Ningning and saved Ningning, who was hovering on the line between life and death.
When this person first appeared on the scene, he brought an orchid fragrance to the story, calm, deserted, noble, and gentle. The status and strength have almost no connection with the mediocre male protagonist. The mysterious student council president who showed outstanding resourcefulness and standing up until the final battle, fell in love with him indifferently, was tortured by emotions in a resentful way, and was almost written by the author. The dead president finally survived in the end. When the hero was preparing to travel to the countries and continents he had visited again, he met President Ningning in the church as the end of the last paragraph.
The character creation and plot arrangement of this novel are excellent, and it combines a passionate style with a resentful and beautiful love story. It has successfully stood out in the light novel market in Japan, which is full of otherworldly harems and campus meat sellers.
In Hitoyoshi City, Mr. Neko was very happy after getting the final volume in the hands of Natsume Takashi. However, after reading the last volume, his back became lonely. As a loyal fan of Ning Ning, he sincerely had no complaints about the ending, but the companionship More than a year of reading fun suddenly ended, and with it came regrets and unfinished thoughts. After hiding the twelve volumes of novels in a drawer, I resumed my life of eating, sleeping, and occasionally attending monster banquets. In my life, I am only somewhat interested in the fourth season animation that will be released later.
In the cabin, Yama Ai, who had lost part of her memory, finally "accidentally" found this set of novels. She was able to read the novel from the beginning to the end without having to be tortured again and again. When the subordinates watched secretly, they all smiled happily.
All kinds of readers in the Metropolitan Police Department, schools, companies, and bookstores, including the "Snow Girl" holding a library book in the activity room of Sobu High School, have all read the last paragraph of the story.
Rumor has it that the earliest human novels were ancient myths from various legends. The stories in the novels can often outline the curiosity of intelligent creatures. The novelist may only conceive the story by himself, but he can connect countless readers and himself. Take a trip into this illusory world. Perhaps this is also an inner reflection of people's deep love for the outside world.
Afternoon, 3:55.
At the exit of the tram station, Li Yan received a call from Kagurazaka Iris.
It was still drizzling in the sky, and they were traveling to and from Tokyo again. Yinglili, who was standing next to Li Yan, was also curiously paying attention to this call.
——[Hey, Mr. Uesugi, how are you? Are you satisfied with your current results? 】
"Um...Miss Kagurazaka, this time I was harmed by your editorial department." Li Yan's face became melancholy, and he said with a dark face after reading the invitation letters from various writers and TV program crews in the mailbox on his mobile phone.
——[This is not a problem. There is no need to respond to others. This is the decision of the editor-in-chief. Sometimes Uesugi’s name has more appeal to readers than your work itself. Well~~~~ Uesugi’s quality is Guaranteed, this will be of great help to you in your second work. 】
Li Yan stopped in the crowded station street and said helplessly: "Such crooked propaganda methods will be avoided in the future... I have received many letters of challenge... and they deliberately mixed the logic problems of my 11-volume novel with the The language problem was found and used to ridicule me. I feel that I have completely provoked public outrage."
——[So don’t respond. It’s okay. They can only find your email, but if you don’t say anything, such things will gradually be forgotten... By the way, where are you now? Why is it so noisy over there? ? 】
"I'm outside now, and Eiri and I are going to buy some materials." Li Yan explained while looking at the majestic and charming bookstore building in Chiyoda District not far away.
——[I see, you are really motivated. Other authors usually get such results and market response after writing, so they should be busy having fun... I still have a job, so I will talk about my future work in detail. Well, bye, Mr. Uesugi. 】
Li Yan put away the phone. He understood that the effect this time was indeed very good, but he always felt that the loss was also great.
"Congratulations, old thief Uesugi."
After hearing Kagurazaka Iris's reply, Eiri stared at the phone speechlessly and complained.
"..."
Li Yan looked at Ying Lili helplessly.
[Old Thief Uesugi]’s reputation is getting worse and worse...
Someone on the Internet listed his bad deeds in the past two years in a professional forum, including more than 20 items, including seven items that delayed publication, six items that played tricks on readers, one that announced the annual update at an autograph session, and one that he escaped, and one with idol stars. There are two scandals about Shibuya Rin (denied), one scandal each with Kasumi Shiko and Senjumura Sei (denied), and one scandal with manga artist Mio Aoyama (denied). They are the most criticized in the author industry. BLADE RECORD ONE (OFFICIAL PROOF)…
After reading each article one by one, even Li Yan himself felt that the author was really guilty.
"...Am I really as hateful as what is written here?" Li Yan thought to himself with shame.
"Don't think too much. As Miss Kagurazaka said, if you don't respond, the limelight will probably pass after more and more time passes."
Yinglili said while holding the shopping list.
"Well... let's buy a Japanese oil painting album first... After all, this is a high school oil painting competition in Tokyo, Japan..."
Ying Lili stared at the painting direction researched by the art club and thought to herself.
According to the traditional competition method, one usually first studies the selection preferences to decide the direction of creation. After all, oil painting pays great attention to the integration of local culture, and there are very few successful cases of imitating the colors and tones from Europe. few.
When Eri was running for illustration rights within Sanwa Bunko, she used her expertise in the field of comics to defeat Shiina Mashiro. After Shiina Mashiro entered the comics industry, she has been chasing her closely, but now the field has suddenly changed. , Eiriri is likely to catch up with Mashiro in her next oil paintings. She has put a lot of thought into this oil painting competition, trying her best to get in touch with Mashiro's backside in high school level competitions, proving that own strength.
"Let's compete with Shiina in terms of style and creativity..." Eiri thought.
And Li Yan is the consultant responsible for giving opinions and suggestions on her personal works. As a writer who has repeatedly broken through limitations, and has always been admired by Mashiro Shiina, she always feels that in the field of oil painting, Li Yan Maybe we can come up with an original suggestion.
In the bookstore, there was a huge crowd.
"How is this going……"
Ying Lili's eyelids twitched, she stared at this bookstore that she came to for the first time, and asked.
"This is a very popular bookstore in Tokyo. You can buy the most complete variety of books here, so business has always been very good." Li Yan replied.
Li Yan and Ying Lili walked among the dazzling bookshelf. On the first floor, there were all kinds of entertainment books, including magazines, newsstands, comics, popular modern novels, including selected works of Murakami's masterpieces, and there were also light books that were always piled up in piles. Novel sales area.
"..."
When Li Yan passed by, he couldn't help but secretly look for the sales area of his novels. Soon, he saw a pile of library books with novel covers on them in a conspicuous place.
The latest volume "Fantasy Demon Sword Legend" published by Sei Senjumura 2 months ago is still attracting a lot of attention. The perennial sales champion of "Sword Realm", which has always been popular, is also among the best-sellers, but "Super Power Academy" is placed in the middle. In the final volume, the number of readers who purchased it was not inferior to the perennially popular works on the left and right sides. The pile of library books seemed to have been almost sold out.
fine……
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief. While Ying Lili was lingering in the comic exhibition area on the other side, he picked up the 12th volume of the light novel.
He always felt that Yinglili was quite powerful.
