The Comprehensive Story of Hiki Valley Hachiman

If it is someone else's modification, there may be problems.

"Then let's do this first. After the review is completed and passed, we will discuss some publishing details."

"I don't know if Teacher Bi Qigu has any questions?"

"Well, no more."

Editor Machida made it very clear.

It's just that I don't understand it a little bit.

Is it necessary to let myself go for something like this that can be done in a few minutes?

Obviously, it can be completely done online.

...probably due to some formalism issue.

Or, it would be more formal to meet in person like this.

Or maybe it's an insurance process of the company.

In short, for these.

Although Bi Qigu had doubts in his heart, he didn't care too much about it.

After all, other editors asked me to come out to meet, and I was too embarrassed to refuse.

Anyway, it doesn't hinder anything, and there is free coffee to drink.

Thinking of this, Hikigu took another sip of the special condensed milk coffee in front of him.

Sure enough, it's still pretty good.

"Then, since Hikigu-kun's matter is settled, then it's your matter, Mr. Kasumigaoka."

Name changed again?

It seems that some of the rules have been found...

Ah, it seems that now is not the time to care about such things.

It turns out that Kasumigaoka-senpai is also looking for editor Machida for something.

Kasumigaoka took a sip of the coffee in front of him, and then calmly waited for Machida's words.

"Mr. Kasumigaoka, the second volume of your novel "Love Metronome" is about to be released, you should know."

"Ah."

Kasumi Hill replied flatly.

"Although I think that your volume, whether it's the content, the plot of the novel, or the portrayal of the characters, is very good."

"But because of the poor sales performance of your first volume, the printing volume this time is still the same as the first volume. About [-] copies."

Editor Machida stated this fact very seriously.

Logically speaking, as long as it is a novel with normal sales, or the editorial department has hope for it.

In any case, the second volume should be more than the first volume.

The situation of Kasumigaoka-senpai can only be explained.The sales volume of her novel is no longer acceptable, and the editorial department has given up hope for it.

Indeed, after all, other companies also want to make money.

It is impossible to take risks with you because of your dreams or confidence.

Maybe, the current situation was caused by editor Machida.

After all, Hikigu knew it too.

Xia Zhiqiu's novels are not sold out even in the publishing house of the family.

"Well, I see."

There were still no waves on his face.

"You really don't know the current situation. If the release of the second volume of your novel is still unsatisfactory, it is very likely that you will face a cut in half."

Editor Machida said again seriously.

"I know very well."

Kasumigaoka put down the coffee in his hand.

"However, I believe in my ability more, and I have confidence in my novels."

"The emotions contained in this are genuine."

Saying that, Kasumigaoka glanced at Hikigaya.

"I also believe that Mr. Hikigu's advice and help are useful."

"Is it……?"

Editor Machida also turned his gaze away because of Kasumigaoka-san's words.

By the way, why are you looking at me?

Does this matter have something to do with me?

"..."

Well, it seems that there is something to do with it...

"I see……"

Looking at Biqigu.

Editor Machida seemed to understand something, and nodded silently.

"Then Mr. Kasumigaoka has considered the signing event mentioned earlier."

"Well, this is the only way right now."

Kasumi Hill-senpai replied somewhat helplessly.

"Unexpectedly, Xiao Shiyu finally figured it out. She has told you so many times before..."

In this regard, editor Machida smiled happily.

"Is it because of someone?"

For some pretentiously mysterious questions, he still looked at Biqigu.

"A signing party?"

Hikigu didn't quite understand what the two of them said on the opposite side.

"That is to say, on the day when the second volume of the novel is released, Mr. Kasumigaoka will hold a signing event in front of the bookstore of our publishing house."

"Everyone who buys this volume of novels on that day will be able to get Mr. Kasumigaoka's autograph~ Use this as a marketing method to solve the sales problem of the novel."

Editor Machida answered for Hiki Valley.

"However, such an act of holding a book signing event. It's not something that a well-known writer whose works sell well will do."

"Kasumigaoka-senpai, who is not selling well, the signing will really be effective, will anyone come?"

Hikigaya raised his own question, but Kasumigaoka gave him a hard look.

I seem to have said something wrong.

But that seems to be the truth.

Did you speak too bluntly?

"Mr. Biqigu, you still don't understand the intention."

Seems a little thirsty, editor Machida took a sip

"There are many marketing methods, and they don't necessarily have to be determined based on the value of the product and market expectations."

"The so-called marketing is to create enough gimmicks to attract most people to buy."

"You know~ Although Xiao Shiyu usually has a bit of a vicious mouth, she is actually a top-notch beautiful girl~~"

"As a boy, you should understand."

Editor Machida approached Hikigaya and gave him a "You know~!" expression.

"Don't spread your disgusting business methods everywhere."

Kasumigaoka-senpai ruthlessly pulled Editor Machida to her side.

Don't let her get too close to Hikigaya.

"That, senior sister, is that really the case?"

Chapter 150 Kasumigaoka-senpai's Shyness

Facing Biqigu's doubts.

Kasumigaoka took a sip of coffee to calm down his current mood.

"Although, what this old woman said is too exaggerated. But, but in essence, it is, this is what it means."

"Xiazhiqiu-senpai, are you shy?"

"Say, say something stupid."

Well, she is a little shy.

However, it is really rare to be able to see Kasumigaoka-senpai in this state.

It seems that it seems to be surprisingly cute.

Although, Xia Zhiqiu's character looks very bold in normal times.

But according to Hikigu's observation, she is just a girl who loves to dream in her heart.

Facing such straightforward words from editor Machida.

As for the way I sold my "hue" in this way, I just made it public in such a grand manner.

There will inevitably be some embarrassment.
