There are always people chasing me for the Akutagawa Prize

The filming of the film has ended, and the next step is to edit the feature film and the trailer. After the trailer comes out, a press conference will be held to announce when it will be released in theaters.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa was on the scene for most of the filming process. He saw the actors' filming process with his own eyes, so he himself is very much looking forward to seeing them in the cinema.

Sky Publishing House and the film company are communicating with each other. Knowing that their filming is over, their publishing side has to start preparing for the next move.

That's why Ryunosuke Akutagawa was called to the publishing house today.

"Mr. Akutagawa!" Editor Junichi Yamaguchi ran over as soon as he saw Ryunosuke Akutagawa.

"Long time no see." Akutagawa Ryunosuke greeted him with a smile.

It's true that they haven't seen each other for a long time since the filming started.

"Mr. Akutagawa, come in, everyone is already in the meeting room."

The meeting room is full of staff, all of whom have various plans in their hands. The purpose of everyone gathering here today is to discuss and improve the plan.Unlike before, Ryunosuke Akutagawa's first book took the simplest publicity and distribution route, and almost all their publishing houses decided how many copies to print at the beginning, and there were not even the kind of promotional posters posted in bookstores.

The situation is quite different this time. They believe in the quality of Mr. Akutagawa's story, so naturally they cannot hold back as support staff.

After everyone sat down, the person in charge of the publicity department stood up and said her publicity plan: "The publicity plan we have drawn up has now started, and the pictures sent out every once in a while on the Internet have achieved a very good warm-up effect. It also greatly increased the degree of discussion. When the publication date is decided, all major bookstores in Japan will start to put up posters for publicity. In addition, the press conference of the film will be launched. In the script, we will ask the host to mention Akutagawa-san's new work, so it will be safe in terms of publicity."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa didn't know much about propaganda techniques, and he could barely understand what he said just now.

Seeing that no one questioned his words, the person in charge of the publicity department began to move on to the next topic: "Then there are some promotional posters that we have customized by the artist—"

Three illustrations appeared on the projection screen in the teleconference room, each of which can be seen to be well-made.

Person in charge of the publicity department: "By the way, the second picture is taken from the first illustration here."

In the first one, the hero and the heroine are standing face to face and holding hands. Below the background is a small town with thousands of lights, and the sky is full of gorgeous fireworks.The painter greatly blends the two light effects in the background very naturally, so that the background will not feel particularly gaudy, and at the same time it will not steal the limelight from the protagonist in front.

Of course, the second and third illustrations are also great, but Ryunosuke Akutagawa liked the feeling of the first illustration at first sight.

"Use the first one for the promotional poster, and use this for the cover of the book." Akutagawa Ryunosuke quickly made a decision.

The person in charge of the propaganda department was stunned by the speed of such a decision, and thought Mr. Akutagawa needed to read a few more versions.

"Are you sure you don't want to look at other plans any more?" the person in charge of the publicity department asked weakly. There are actually some other pictures behind him.

"No, that's all." Akutagawa Ryunosuke was very sure.

The first time he saw it, he felt that the painting was the most suitable.

The boss of the publishing house echoed, "Do as Mr. Akutagawa says."

"Yes!"

The next discussion is how many thousands of copies to print in the first wave is the most appropriate.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke's first book was only printed in [-] copies at the beginning, and many large bookstores had never heard of the name Akutagawa Ryunosuke, and they never bought it from the publishing house. It was sold to some small bookstores at a very cheap price.

Afterwards, with the soaring word of mouth, more and more people bought it. In the end, the supply was short of demand, so it was temporarily decided to reprint.Even the poster promotion was made when Akutagawa Ryunosuke's book was climbing up the bookstore bestseller list step by step.

The current situation is completely different from that at that time. The title of the book has not yet been decided, and the major bookstores have already started to order from the publishing house, and there are large orders of tens of thousands of copies.

The boss is naturally very happy, but he still has some worries, because of this, the number of copies to be printed in the first batch has been unable to be decided.

Everyone recognizes Akutagawa Ryunosuke's talent, but no matter how talented he is, he is still a newcomer in the literary world.In the literary world, there is really no shortage of authors whose first book became popular, but then disappeared.Whether Akutagawa Ryunosuke will become like that, no one can say for sure.

As a writer, what Ryunosuke Akutagawa lacks the most is the word-of-mouth accumulated by those old writers over the years.

This book does not want to be as popular as the first book, as long as it maintains a good score, it is enough to lay the foundation for the third book!

Akutagawa Ryunosuke himself was not listening to them discussing how many copies to print. He was really not interested in such topics.Just at this time, the phone vibrated, and someone sent him a message.

I thought it was Tsunaji-ge asking him what time to go home, but when he opened it, he found that it was a message from his classmate Keigo Atobe.

Keigo Atobe: Let’s say you are also a member of my uncle’s tennis club, so I’ll send you a message to tell you.The summer vacation is coming, and the exam is coming soon. Your desk has been filled with homework when you didn't come to school. Come back quickly, or the cleaning lady will take it away.

After reading the message, Ryunosuke Akutagawa replied with two words: Received.

Brother Gangji has been silently hinting that he should go to school to take a look after he came.

Then decide tomorrow!

Right now the movie is working overtime to edit the clips, and he himself is just waiting for the press conference to show his face, and then there will be no major problems.

The next day, Akutagawa Ryunosuke came to the school as planned.

Unlike the last time he stepped into the campus, this time it seemed that almost everyone knew him, and he could hear Akutagawa every two steps.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke felt that it was not good to walk away as if he hadn't heard anything, but he didn't know what to reply, so he could only nod in the direction of the speaker, meaning that he had heard it.

After such a long period of time, especially when a press conference was held, the appearance of the writer Akutagawa Ryunosuke is no longer a secret, and it is indeed very easy to know what school he is a student from.

When I came to the classroom, the students in the class didn't have any special reactions, but now all of them knew this classmate who often didn't come to class.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa came a little early today, and there is still some time before class.

"It's finally here." Keigo Atobe said when he saw Ryunosuke Akutagawa walking in.

The first time Akutagawa Ryunosuke opened the classroom door, he saw desks full of various homework. It was indeed similar to what Keigo Atobe said. If he didn't come, he might really be cleared away.

"That's too much." Ryunosuke Akutagawa looked at the homework that looked like a hill, and couldn't help showing the expression that all students would have when they saw the homework.

"Of course you've been skipping classes. You're really not a gorgeous guy." Keigo Atobe has never seen anyone who owes homework to such an extent, and he can't believe it. "As a My classmate, Mr. Ben, reminds you that if you can pass all the exams in a while, it’s okay, but if you fail, the school may have to talk to your guardian.”

It was unheard of for a student to graduate without looking at the attendance rate. The principal was already on the verge of having a seizure. After knowing that Ryunosuke Akutagawa was the super famous writer, he acquiesced in this matter. After all, cultivating a famous writer can also be one of the resumes of the Ice Emperor Academy in the future.However, the student's job is still to study, and the school does not require Akutagawa Ryunosuke's grades to be superb, as long as they can pass all of them.

"Study." Akutagawa Ryunosuke originally thought he could take a good rest, but it felt like it was too early to breathe a sigh of relief, "How much time will it take to finish this?"

It feels like this is enough for him to write for several weeks without sleep, and it is really scary to go to school or something

"I'll borrow you to copy it!" Yushi Ninzu heard from Keigo Atobe yesterday that Akutagawa Ryunosuke would come to school today, and he deliberately came a while earlier, "Akutagawa is very wrong, Akutagawa-kun is completely indifferent to homework and so on. Don't worry, I'll just lend you a copy!"

As a fan, it is also a kind of happiness to let my beloved copy my homework!

As the president of the student council, Keigo Atobe, the light of the righteous way, of course must immediately stop this incorrect behavior: "Enough, don't spoil him! You can't take the exam instead of him."

"Well, Xiaojing, don't be so rigid. You see so many homework, how can humans be able to complete it?" With idols, Ninzu Yushi forgot about their ministers and completely stood by Akutagawa Ryunosuke , "And there is still some time before the exam, there is absolutely no problem with Akutagawa-kun's words!"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was very grateful to Ninzu Yuuji for his help, but what Keigo Atobe said was indeed right.

"Thank you Ninzu-kun, but it's my personal problem to be absent from class all the time. These homework can be regarded as a punishment." Akutagawa Ryunosuke thought about it carefully, and in the end it was indeed his own problem of not coming to class. "I will work hard to finish it myself!"

"Akutagawa-kun" Yushi Ninzu was very moved by Akutagawa Ryunosuke's words, "It's really Mr. Akutagawa! That's it: "There are about two weeks before the exam. Uncle will hold reading clubs at home, and you don't seem to be the type who usually reviews at home, so I reluctantly invite you to come together. "

Akutagawa Ryunosuke replied with a smile: "Okay, I am very happy, thank you Atobe-kun."

"Hmph, I'm just afraid that your bad grades will affect the evaluation of Ice Empress Academy."

Shinobu Yushi has known Keigo Atobe for so long, and Keigo Atobe is always very dishonest when he is kind to others, just like it is now.He was obviously worried that Akutagawa would fail his exams, and he made a point of saying that he didn't really care.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke sat in his seat, classified all the homework first, planned which ones to do on which days, and tried to make the best use of the time.

Because there will be press conferences, book launches and other various things to do afterwards, it is really not easy to take care of studies at the same time.

There is still some time before class starts, Yushi Ninzu seizes the time to chat with Dai Akutagawa.

"I saw a picture of the new work on the Internet, and I am very looking forward to it!" Yushi Ninzu himself likes to read romantic novels about love. It hit all his cute points, although he still doesn't know what the specific content is, but the feeling will definitely not be bad!

"Thank you! I also have a little expectation for this new work. I personally like this story very much." Akutagawa Ryunosuke is also very proud of this.

"When will the new work be on the shelves? I checked the information for a long time and it seems that there is no definite date." Standing in the advantage of being close to the water, Yushi Ninata directly asked the author himself for information.

"Well, the exact time has not been determined yet, but it should be a week after the movie "Otsuki" is released." For friends, there is no need for Akutagawa Ryunosuke to cover up this information so tightly.

Keigo Atobe was also listening to the conversation between the two, and analyzed a wave: "Summer vacation is coming soon, most of the movies that are going to be released during this time period will wait until summer vacation, it should be about that time."

Half of it is Keigo Atobe's own analysis, and the other half is from the information of one of the benefactor's fathers.

"I'll definitely watch it!" Yushi Ninzu really felt excited about getting the gossip, especially since the news came directly from the author himself, which couldn't be more credible.

Chatting and chatting, it's time for class.

In order to prepare for the upcoming exam, Ryunosuke Akutagawa listened to the class very carefully today, and took out a paper to take notes. The teacher on the podium felt very relieved when he saw it.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke secretly made up his mind.

——Absolutely can’t fail the course!

——In any case, you can’t fail the course!

Keigo Atobe said just now that if he fails a course, he must invite a guardian. The guardian of Akutagawa Ryunosuke is naturally the Sawada family. He must never be called to school because his father and Tsunayoshi have failed. What a shame!

When people's spirit is highly concentrated, time will pass very quickly.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was originally the type with a relatively bright mind, and he was always fishing for fish in class before, so it will be much better if he really learns with his heart this time.

The time for class passed quickly, and Ryunosuke Akutagawa still couldn't get enough of what he was listening to.

When he was in class just now, he had roughly written down the homework he would do, which relieved a little burden.

After class, Akutagawa Ryunosuke already wanted to go home, but when he was packing his things, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be club activities after school today.Looking up, he saw Keigo Atobe and Yuushi Ninzu standing in front of him with tennis bags on their backs.

It seems that this house may not be able to return

"Let's go."

The club I joined, I have to finish it even on my knees

When Ryunosuke Akutagawa came to tennis, he felt that there were a little more people today than before.

Yushi Ninaku explained: "This afternoon, our Hyotei Tennis Club and Rikkai University Tennis Club have a practice match. The two teams are old acquaintances. It is also an improvement to play against each other before the start of the Kanto Tournament."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke nodded, he remembered that the tennis club of Hyotei Academy seemed to be really famous.

"That's why there are so many people here today—" Ryunosuke Akutagawa looked over. There were not only members of the tennis club, but also many students of Hyotei, and even people outside the school. It seemed that he could still see Several journalists were taking pictures with their cameras.

This is really a big battle. Is playing tennis really this fun?

"There shouldn't be that many people in the first place, and I don't know what happened today." This is not the first practice match between the Ice Emperor Tennis Club and the Lihai University Tennis Club. I don't know why there are so many people today.

Atobe Keigo said: "You will know in a moment, let's go."

As the minister, Keigo Atobe must be present at this time.

Yushi Ninzu waved at Ryunosuke Akutagawa: "I'll go first too, Akutagawa-kun can find a place to watch the battle."

"Okay, let's go."

After the two of them entered the venue, Ryunosuke Akutagawa found an excellent spot to watch the battle.

He put down his schoolbag and sat on the ground. Not only were there few people here, but also there was a big tree behind to enjoy the shade. It was the best place to watch the battle.

After a while, Akutagawa Ryunosuke saw their opponents today, a group of people in khaki clothes.

The game started, and the first player to play was someone Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't know.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was watching with relish, when suddenly a person sat beside him.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa found it very strange. Generally speaking, this is not the case when you just met him. He was about to say something, but the other party spoke first.

"Hello." A boy in a white shirt looked at Ryunosuke Akutagawa with a smile, "Are you also a member of the Hyotei Tennis Club?"

"Yes." Akutagawa Ryunosuke nodded.

"Why didn't you go in to watch the game? People from the tennis club seem to be in the auditorium?" He asked.

"I've never played tennis much, and this seems to be the second time I've participated in club activities since I joined. I always feel awkward going in and sitting with him. I'll just watch here." Akutagawa Ryunosuke felt that he was not He doesn't care much about tennis, it's a club activity for him, so he almost has a dispensable mentality.It is the most rude thing to have such a mentality among a group of people who want to be the best. That's why Akutagawa Ryunosuke picked himself out of the tennis club.

"So that's the case." The boy nodded, "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yukimura Seichi."

"Hello, I am--"

When Akutagawa Ryunosuke was about to introduce himself politely, he was interrupted by the person opposite.

"Akutagawa Ryunosuke, right?" Yukimura Seichi knew about it a long time ago, "I'm a fan of Akutagawa-sensei, and I heard that you are in Hyotei Academy, so I want to take this opportunity to see you no matter what."

"Yukimura-kun?" Hearing what the other party said, Akutagawa Ryunosuke always felt that he was not just a passerby who came to see him.

"I'm a member of the Lihai University Tennis Club, and I proposed the game of falling in love with Shuwuen, so that I can have the opportunity to meet you!" Yukimura Seichi then said another message, "Oh, that's right. That's right! The illustration that Akutagawa-sensei finally decided to use was also drawn by me."

"Hey?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't realize it when he first heard it. After his brain read the information, he finally realized: "So you drew it?!"
