Konoha great writer

"Akino-san?"

Seeing Uchiha Akino walking into the office, Yu Mukayama was surprised and happy.

What surprised him was that Uchiha Akino's appearance was completely beyond his expectation. What he was happy about was that Uchiha Akino showed up and came to the publishing house to find him. The two coexisted very contradictoryly.

Of course, for him, he was more happy than surprised.

Because Uchiha Akino's two books "Collection of Short Romance Novels" and "Konoha Ninja Love Stories" are selling well, as the editor of Uchiha Akino, his status in the publishing house has increased, and he has reached the point where he can compete for the position of the next editor-in-chief. To an extent that he would have never dared to think about before.

"Yu-san, long time no see." Uchiha Akino smiled and walked to Mukayama Yu's desk.

We haven't seen him for a long time, and there has been no change in Mukayama Yu. His skin color is still as dark as before, and he has not turned white due to sitting in the office for a long time.

"It's been a long time. When did Akino-san come back?" Mukayama Yu stood up, looked at Uchiha Akino and asked with a smile.

As the editor of Uchiha Akino, he naturally knew that Uchiha Akino had "disappeared" for several months this time because he went to the frontline battlefield to fight with Sunagakure Village in the Land of Wind.

And if he hadn't occasionally heard messages from the front line, saying that Uchiha Akino was killing everyone in a very impressive manner, he would have been worried about whether Uchiha Akino died on the battlefield.

You know, Uchiha Akino is the number one "go-getter" among the authors he is responsible for.

Without Uchiha Akino, he would never have been able to take the position of editor-in-chief of the publishing house with the help of a group of stinky fish and rotten shrimps left in his hands.

"I came back yesterday. I came here today to ask Yu-san about the sales of my new book." Uchiha Akino replied while maintaining a smile.

After not seeing each other for a few months, Uchiha Akino was almost as tall as Yu Mukayama, who was just over meters tall.

"Akino-san, you sit down first. I'll find you the book sales report as of last month." Mukaiyama Yu motioned Uchiha Akino to sit down, and then began to rummage through the files on the desk.

"Akino-san, you can read it yourself." A minute later, Mukayama Yu handed the sales report to Uchiha Akino.

Uchiha Akino took the report and began to read it.

The content of the report is simple and clear. As of last month, among Uchiha Akino's two books, the sales volume of "Short Love Stories Collection" was 78000 copies, while the sales volume of "Konoha Ninja Love Story" was only 43000 copies.

And the royalties that Uchiha Akino has not received in the past few months have successfully exceeded ten million taels, which is about one-third of the value of Sarutobi Asuma.

"The sales of new books are a bit low." After reading the report, Uchiha Akino was a little dissatisfied.

It has been a few months since "Konoha Ninja Love Story" was published, and it has obviously reached a sales bottleneck. Basically, most people who want to read this book have bought it, and the sales volume in the next year can still be sold. Ten thousand copies can be said to be a blessing.

This means that the total sales volume of "Konoha Ninja Love Story" is almost fixed at around copies, which is at least copies less than his debut "Short Love Story Collection".

"Is this still called low?" After hearing Uchiha Akino's words, Mukayama Yu couldn't help but shake out these words.

You know, in less than half a year, the sales of a book reached more than copies, which is already the sales level of a great writer in the ninja world. This is beyond the reach of most writers in the ninja world.

Even after "Konoha Ninja Love Story" came out, many desperate authors began to imitate "Konoha Ninja Love Story" to write, hoping to gain popularity by selling thousands of copies and increasing their popularity.

"The sales volume of the first book is only a little more than half, isn't it very low?" Uchiha Akino sighed.

Because the results of "Collection of Short Romance Novels" exploded, Uchiha Akino's horizons also improved. Therefore, even if he had prepared for "Konoha Ninja Love Story" before, he might not be particularly good when he heard "Konoha Ninja Love Story". When "Konoha Ninja Love Story" is far inferior to "Collection of Short Stories", he will still feel a sense of loss. This is his normal psychology as a human being.

It's like a person who scored points on the first exam but only scored points on the second time...

After sighing, Uchiha Akino looked at Yu Mukayama and continued to ask: "Yu-san, why do you think the sales of the new book are not as good as the last one?"

"Well... I think it's a problem with the audience." Faced with Uchiha Akino's question, Mukayama Yu thought about it carefully before answering.
