Shidao Wuhe sighed and knocked on the door. After hearing Editor Tuqi's reply, he cautiously walked in and whispered,"
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Great writer, are you finally here?"
A woman standing in the corner sneered and then looked at Five Rivers Warrior with an unhappy expression.
It was a woman with short black hair and dressed in black and white office clothes. Gokawa Shido naturally recognized this person. She was the editor of the Undying River Literature, Machida Yuanzi.
Machida Enko's attitude was understandable. After all, in order to avoid getting involved with Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who was under Machida Enko's banner, he had forcefully and unreasonably requested a change of editor from the library.
This was a rather rare request, especially for a new author like Gokawa Shuichi. However, because one of the authors under Toki's editor suddenly ran away, after some discussion, Gokawa Shuichi's editor was successfully changed to Toki Kenjiro.
Therefore, Machida Yuanzi had always been brooding over the request of Gokawa Shidao to change the editor. In addition, Gokawa Shidao did not have any good results after his debut. She had waited for so long just now, so she naturally would not be polite.
Fujishimi Gokawa did not mind. After all, the other party was not his editor. No matter how much he hated him, it would not affect his work. Therefore, he only smiled and nodded at Machida Yuanzi so that she could not continue mocking him.
The girl sitting next to Machida Enko was someone that Gokawa Shido was very familiar with. She had waist-length black hair, snow-white skin, long black silky legs, a white headdress, and a ribbon. She was also wearing the school uniform of the third year of the General Martial Arts University. She was Kasumigaoka Shiyu, whom he had met at noon today.
Just like Machida Yuanzi, Kasumigaoka Shika was also unhappy and kept shaking her legs. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt like he saw the mysterious dark aura behind her.
It was actually these two people. It could be said that it was very bad!
Shidao Wuhe couldn't understand why the editor of Tuqi wanted to discuss with them, but he knew what he had to do. At least he had to appear ordinary.
He looked at Shika Kasumigaoka with a surprised expression, as if he was very surprised that Shika Kasumigaoka had appeared here. Then, he said in surprise,
"Kasumigaoka senpai?"
Shika Kasumigaoka raised her head slightly and realized that it was a boy she didn't know. However, from his uniform and the way he addressed her just now, she naturally understood that he was a student of the Chief Martial High School.
She didn't know the other party, but she also thought that it was very normal for Five Rivers to know her. After all, she was a famous beautiful girl in the school, so it was only natural for these juniors to know her.
Shiyu Kasumigaoka nodded coldly. In front of unfamiliar people, she had always maintained such a cold and aloof image.
Of course, what she didn't know was that because he had seen anime about her in his previous life, Gohe Shido was very familiar with Kasumigaoka Shiyu's true face.
Seeing that Kasumigaoka Shiyu was ignoring him and that Gokawa Shudo did not mind, it was better to say that this was the case. He turned around and asked Toki Kenjiro curiously,"
"Editor Tuqi, why did you ask me to rush over after school?”
" The sales of your latest volume have dropped a lot. It's almost at the bottom line that the Literature Library can't accept."
Toki Kenjiro said in a deep voice. In fact, he was not very optimistic about such a work from the beginning, but the chief editor thought that it had commercial value, so he let it be published.
As a result, the sales of the first few volumes were still okay because it was quite enjoyable to read. However, after reading two more volumes of this kind of novel, one would become tired of reading it. There would be fewer and fewer fans, and more and more negative reviews. As a result, there were not many people who were interested in buying it now.
If it weren't for the mysterious illustrator's outstanding character, the sales might have been even worse.
"So you're going to cut him in half?"
Scholar Wuhe frowned. If he was going to be cut in half, what rubbish work should he copy next?
Tuqi's editor didn't know that Shido Gohe was worried about such things. He thought that Shido Gohe was discouraged by his sales results. He hurriedly shook his head and explained,
"It hasn't reached the point where you're cut in half, but Wenshu hopes that you can hold a signing event to increase your popularity!”
"A signing event?"
Wu He murmured. If it was an ordinary signing event, the people who would come would definitely be fans of the work, and it would not increase the popularity.
Moreover, if it was just a signing event, what were Kasumigaoka Shiyu and the others doing?
Shidao Wuhe looked at Editor Tuqi in confusion, hoping that he could explain.
Tuqi's editor sighed and then explained to Five Rivers,"
"Wenku means that you and Teacher Kasumishiko will hold a book signing event together!”
"Why?"
Shido Gokawa asked excitedly. Why was he suddenly asked to hold a signing event with Shiyu Kasumigaoka?!
Shido Gohe glanced at Shiyu Kasumigaoka, who was sitting at the side. He found it hard to believe that she would agree to such an event.
"Don't look at me! I'm also firmly opposed!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu said coldly. She just wanted to write a good novel and did not want to copy anything. Unfortunately, in the light novel industry, sales were everything. She did not have a choice.
"There are three reasons."
Tuqi's editor raised three fingers and explained one by one,"
"Firstly, you are all relatively young and have room for improvement. The library is willing to give you time and opportunities. If you want to improve, you need to learn together.
Gohe, you are good at grasping the selling points of light novels, but the writing style and plot are very ordinary. Teacher Kasumishiko's writing style and plot are all first-class, but the selling points of her works are seriously lacking.
Therefore, the editor-in-chief wants you to get to know each other, learn from each other's strengths, and improve your own shortcomings. Only then will you have the chance to become independent light novel writers!”
Shika Kasumigaoka shook her legs and asked doubtfully,"
"I've seen that Mobile Man too. It's purely toilet paper given by the illustrations. It has no nutritional value. It's a waste of time to watch it. Is there really a need to learn from it?”
"Sorry about Senior's work! I haven't seen it before!"
Shido Gokawa also wanted to say something, but he realized that he had never read Kasumigaoka Shiyu's novel, so he could only say it truthfully. However, this was enough to mock him. After hearing his words, Kasumigaoka Shiyu's face darkened.
