Reiko gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "No, we failed."

She found two private detectives to dig deep into Akihara Yuto's life, but she was completely speechless to him.

A successful teenager, rich and famous, he should be young and frivolous and go out to have a fling, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't drink too much, didn't smoke, and didn't even get close to women.

As far as she knows, he doesn't even have a romantic partner, which makes people doubt his sexual orientation.

You know, Akihara Yuto's net worth and status are completely sweet.As long as he hooked his fingers a little, there would be a lot of people willing to come over.

Even the few female stars who are popular in the artist circle now probably won't refuse his pursuit.

After all, in Neon, the status and net worth of well-known writers are much higher than that of artists. If they fall in love with Akihara Hiroto or get married, it is estimated that some of these artists will be willing to give up their acting career and become housewives.

So in Reiko's view, the only way to discredit Yuuto Akihara now is to concoct some dirty news.

"Even if the private life of Hiroto Akihara is discredited, will it affect the sales of his works?" Hohei Honda asked coldly.

The lives of many neon writers are chaotic. Even if the public sees them, they just criticize them, and then they do what they should do.

In this case, even if it is revealed that Akihara Yuto has a mistress and an illegitimate child, it may not be the worst one.

"Actually, it's still useful," Reiko Hoshime argued,

"Because of Akihara Yuto's youth and wealth, he has accumulated a group of loyal female fan readers before. If he has an illegitimate child and mistress scandal, these readers are likely to be disappointed with him and leave."

Hohei Honda gave her a disappointed look, and then said: "Specialist, I don't object to your method of smearing Yuuto Akihara, but you chose the wrong place."

"Wrong?" Reiko Seime was a little puzzled, and then became uneasy.

"Akihara Hiroto is a writer, and for a writer, his works are the most important," Honda Kohei nodded lightly, "If this is the case, we should attack him on his writing talent."

"What do you mean?" Reiko asked in confusion.

"Are you an idiot?" Hohei Honda turned his head and glanced at her, "Find some experts to criticize his works for flawed thinking, or find someone to directly say that Akihara Yuto is plagiarizing or find someone to write for him."

"Isn't this more useful than what you thought?" His voice became a lot harder.

For Jing Fanshe, although the reasoning book market is not the one with the largest sales volume, it is the one with the most lucrative profits.

Especially by adapting reasoning into film and television dramas, Jing Fanshe has brought a lot of additional benefits.

However, after the rise of Hiroto Akihara's works, the value of all Jingfanshe's film and television IPs has shrunk a lot.

Even bringing him to the shareholders' meeting was ridiculed a lot, both openly and secretly.

So he is a little anxious now, if he can kill people without breaking the law, he can't wait to find someone to stab Yuuto Akihara to death.

Seeing the president's stern expression, Reiko Hozome also made up her mind.

The previous failures have caused a lot of negative content about her to spread in the agency.

After all, using the resources of the whole society to suppress a medium-sized publishing house has not succeeded.

If he still fails this time, he may not even be able to sit in the position of executive!

……

On the other side, Hiroto Akihara was also thinking about this old rival, and how to completely overthrow Jingfanshe in business.

But compared with Jing Fanshe, he is much more comfortable now.

With the help of a large amount of exposure brought by the Uemura Award, more and more bookstores from all over the world have made order calls, requesting to order Akihara Hiroto's "Train" and other works.

The Tsutaya Bookstore also took the opportunity to reach direct sales business with about 8000 bookstores.

This number accounts for almost 4/1 of the total number of all bookstores in Neon.

Because of the large number of orders, by the end of February, the total number of books published by Tsutaya Bookstore was nearly more than 100 million, further occupying a larger market share of reasoning bookstores.

But this also brings a new problem, that is, the development of the publishing house has encountered a bottleneck.

"How to solve it?" Hiroto Akihara couldn't help talking to himself: "How about attacking Jingfanshe's other publication markets? For example, magazines and romances?"

When talking about magazines, he couldn't help but think of the acquisition of "New" that Seto Yuzhi told himself before.

But soon, he shook his head and gave up the idea.

Although the market for inference magazines is huge, even as large as the market for single volumes, a magazine can not only be supported by one person, it also requires many other writers to contribute.

In addition, if he dominates the reasoning magazine market again, it will inevitably arouse the hostility of fellow writers.

After all, in the current reasoning literature world, many writers still need magazines to earn manuscript fees, so they have to leave something for others to eat, right?

And if you want to make a good magazine, it is more reliable to rely on the short series, but the rest in my mind are long stories.

Hiroto Akihara frowned and took two steps, lost in thought.

If none of these things work, where is the business breakthrough point of the publishing house?

[Chapter 324.323 Too many choices]

Akihara Hiroto pondered for a long time, then took out a pen and paper, and began to write a few alternative options on the paper.

"How about light?"

It seems to be feasible, because it was 94, the light market has begun to sprout, and has a group of loyal readers.

In the original neon history, it is recognized that light originated in 1975, which is the publication of "Space Battleship Yamato".

After that, "Legend of the Galactic Heroes", "Wang Li Cosmic Army" and "Galaxy Railway 999" were also released one after another, and were adapted into comics and animations.

And these light developments in science fiction have also laid the foundation for the "Gundam" series and "Stones of Destiny" that are well-known to Chinese people in later generations.

Even in some works, you can see the light shadow of these sci-fi genres.

However, after the 90s, as the economy turned from good to bad, the market's preference for light products also changed dramatically, which also led to a sharp transformation of the light market.

During the period from 90 to 94, the light market mainly changed from rigorous settings with a heavy sense of history to light entertainment.

On the basis of inheriting the previous sci-fi, many works have added fantasy elements, such characteristic works as "Xiu Dou Magister", "Mobile Police", "The Lost Universe" and "Twelve Kingdoms" have also been published one after another.

And the now famous Dengeki Bunko was officially established in that era.

Hiroto Akihara recalled the background of the times he was in now, and found that Kefansha was indeed the same as the Kadokawa Bookstore in his previous life, and had already begun to set up a library to enter this field.

But they don't seem to put much energy into it at present, and they are still focusing on science fiction. Can they cut in and use their works to defeat them and occupy the market first.

But a huge problem is that if you want to sell well, you often have to rely on the animation of your works to promote it.
