Tsutaya Bookstore, the largest bookstore in New York, had the most customers. Yet, in just one morning, such a big bookstore…only sold five books!
And this standard was the standard of an ordinary light novelist who had no interest and no advertisements!
It should be said that the authors of the failed light novels from Hirakawa Bunkaku were not able to come to Tsutaya Bookstore yet.
Therefore, when he found out about this result, the managing editor, Mr. Isshiro, almost vomited blood.
"Is, is it confirmed?"
However, he was still hanging on to his last breath because it would be terrible if he made a mistake and vomited blood and was hospitalized.
"I've been staring at the magazine section, and then a lot of customers came, but they were all attracted by Hirakawa Literature's new work, SAO.”
"Then someone stopped in our area, but he only sneered and left.”
Miss Shanmu, who had been sent to the live broadcast, said gloomily.
This was because these customers didn't even read the contents of the book and just abandoned Blue Literature.
The literature of Qing had truly declined.
Her tone was a little downcast, and in the meeting room, the editors who had been thinking about where to drink and celebrate after the hot sale all shut up.
" In other words..." Editor Kimino, the baby-faced editor who had asked Su Yang for an autograph, looked depressed." Our Blue Literature has really failed this time?"”
The other female editor, Harumi Taniguchi, also found it unbelievable.
"Could it be that the aesthetic standards of literary girls have changed?”
"That shouldn't be the case."
"From my point of view, the Tale of Genji is super awesome. It was like watching Akutagawa Ryuunosuke's Rashomon for the first time.”
"I was shocked."
"Moreover, when Genji and Emperor Tonghu's concubine were discovered by the concubine's father, he directly admitted that the belt was his. It was even more flirtatious than the SAO of light novels!”
she said.
His face was filled with worry and confusion.
"Taniguchi-kun, you should change your red nails back to their original appearance before you can say such words.”
An editor who was not on good terms with her said. "Right now, you don't have any literary girl's performance.”
"The love for literature comes from the heart, not from the outside.”Taniguchi Harumi said. "None of you understand."
"... Hmm-" As the deputy editor, and also the first to promote and recommend the Tale of Genji, Nanri Kazuko's eyes revealed a guilty expression.
Because she didn't know how to send a message to Su Yangjun to report the current sales situation.
Everyone was very interested in the Tale of Genji and felt that it would definitely work. It could even become a gamble.
In the end.
This was completely unsellable.
Previously, they had been thinking about what to do if the book became too popular, and then Blue Literature would return to its original weekly update.
Therefore, she entrusted Su Yang to continue writing the next volume.
Su Yang had already finished writing the second volume and was writing the third volume.
She had also read the second volume. The male protagonist, Genji, met the young girl, Aoi Ji, who was part of the Guangyuan Clan's plan and was ready to raise her.
It could be said that they were entering an exciting place.
In the end.
In the end, they couldn't sell it?
Why was this happening?
She was very confused.
However, if that was the case, they could only stop Su Yangjun from writing.
However, the article was clearly very excellent, so why couldn't it sell?
Big Bird Nan blamed himself and didn't know how to deal with it.
……………………
On the other side.
In the corner of the Tsutaya Bookstore, a girl with straight hair wearing a red bathrobe and wooden clogs sighed softly.
Because she was also guarding the largest bookstore in the capital.
He wanted to see how many people had come to buy Blue Literature today.
The reason was simple. Today's Blue Literature was different from the past because it published the works of her cute junior Su Yangjun.
The Tale of Genji.
She didn't watch it because Su Yang was participating in the classical literature competition. He couldn't play that at all.
Nowadays, classical literature did not have a good reputation, so there were few people who liked it.
Fortunately, Su Yang's work won an award.
That meant that he had a million yen in his account.
She was happy for him, but her mood was a little depressed by the sales situation at the scene.
She didn't expect the sales to be so bad.
Therefore, after buying a book about the black literature, she still dialed the number of the junior who was marked as cute.
……………………
"Beep beep!"
Su Yang yawned in front of the computer.
He had also stayed up all night typing last night in order to finish [The Tale of Genji] as soon as possible.
Although the typing speed was very fast, it consumed both physical and mental energy, so Su Yang still stayed up late.
He glanced at his sister's room.
Although the family no longer lacked tuition fees, her real name sister was still studying seriously.
Su Yang had nothing to say about this, because as long as her real name was not sick, she was a good sister.
So it was normal for him to be like this.
How obedient would she be if she were to study?
……………………
"Hello…it's me, your cute Sayuri Senpai.”Su Yang's cute voice came from his phone.
"Senior, what can I do for you today?"
"I stayed up all night writing, so I'm going to sleep later.”Su Yang said.
" Ah, this..." When she heard Su Yang say that he stayed up all night to write, Sayuri became hesitant because it meant that Su Yang was working very hard.
In the end, the books were not selling at all.
This made people feel sad.
However…
He had no choice but to say it.
It was a waste of time and energy if you continued to write because you couldn't sell it.
Therefore, she decided that it would be better to save the pain for now. She said directly," Junior Su Yang, I'm at Tsutaya Bookstore now, and... the latest issue of Qing Zhi Literature... can't sell."”
"Oh." Su Yang said. "So?"
"Eh?" Sayuri could hear the calmness in Su Yang's tone. There was not even a fluctuation, which surprised her. "Don't you think this is a terrifying thing?”
"It means that no one read the Tale of Genji you wrote!”
"And this time, Blue Literature has put up advertisements and banners in all the major bookstores, but no one has seen it.”
"It's very terrifying, little brother!”
……………………
"Will it be like this?" Su Yang said. "Senior, you seem to have made a mistake.”
"Hmm?" Sayuri blinked cutely.
"What?"
"Blue Literature Magazine. It took a long time for this magazine to go from being a celebrity to trash, and then it lost a lot of fans.”
"So if you suddenly hype it up, will others come?”
"It won't happen."
"So, it's normal that Blue Literature can't sell.”
Oh.
It seemed to make sense.
No, it should be said that it made sense!
Because what was Blue Literature Magazine? Isn't it the magazine that the school forces us to buy every year?
If everyone resisted it physically, it would be strange if they would line up to buy it.
"…" So that was the case.
Sayuri understood, but she still didn't understand.
"Then why are you so calm? If you can't sell it, you won't be able to get the new copyright.”
The authors relied on copyrights to make a living. Now, Green Literature Press had given Su Yang 30,000 copies of royalties. If he could not sell this 30,000 copies, then they would not give him any more royalties.
"It won't be unsellable." Su Yang said calmly. "Because this is a very good piece of work."
"Something like classical literature needs people to slowly savor it.”
"It's different from light novels that are like toilet paper.”
" As long as it is given time to settle, then..." Su Yang said," it will immediately become popular."”
As if reflecting Su Yang's words, Fei Yingli stopped in front of the 2334 issue of the magazine.
