Another book is "Oriental Fantasy Township", the first step of her Oriental ip project, the results can only be regarded as the upper reaches, after all, this is not a commercial direction.

As an author, he is not famous, but as an editor, Sakura is very famous.

The authors she works with are either rising stars or established light novel authors.

There are no authors under her who have poor grades. Even authors who have just entered the light novel circle, when they come to her, their grades will still skyrocket.

Therefore, there are often people who express their hope that Sakura will become their responsible editor when submitting articles.

Being under her hands is equivalent to taking off.

However, Sakura's elimination rate is also very high. Light novels that can pass the review with other editors may not be able to pass the review with Sakura.

But even so, there will still be many authors who mark on the manuscript that they hope that Sakura can become their editor.

Because even if it doesn't pass, as long as the work is not too bad to be saved, Sakura will point out some problems.

In other words, even if you don't pass the review, as long as you submit a manuscript to Sakura, you may still get a shallow guidance from Sakura.

If it wasn't for Sakura Nao who only reviewed a certain number of manuscripts every day, otherwise most of the manuscripts in the library would go to Sakura Nao.

Looking at the book in her hand, Sakura thought for a while, took out a sticky note and began to write.

【Dear...】

Just as she was about to start writing, Sakura remembered that she still didn't know the name of the author.

I took another look at the author's name and the title of the book.

"Love Metronome" Author: Xia Shizi

Xia Zhiqiu?This is really destined.

Sakura smiled silently.

His eyes didn't linger on the familiar book title and pseudonym.

Started writing again, although she saw a familiar name, Sakurano did not change her mind.

[Dear Mr. Xia Shizi, unfortunately, after careful review, your work "Love Metronome" has not passed the review, please don't be discouraged, this is indeed a work with potential, but I am not suitable for it. Editor of this book, if you wish, please submit this work again, and I will recommend it to other editors. ——Song of Sakura]

Tear off the sky-blue sticky note with many cartoon kitten patterns, stick it on the manuscript, and put the manuscript on the pile of manuscripts without hesitation.

These original manuscripts are eliminated and must be returned.

Xia Shizi's will also be returned.

Xia Shizi's expectation is to let Ying Nao be her editor. If Ying Nao refuses, changing the editor depends on the author's own wishes.

Sakura can't say that it is more appropriate to change to another editor, so she just handed over the manuscript to another editor.

If there is a contact method, you can ask the author's wishes. If the other party agrees, you can directly hand over the manuscript to other editors.

Speaking of which, this is already a sophomore in high school, why did Xia Zhiqiu write novels?

Sakura felt puzzled, but quickly put the doubt behind her.

This is not a simple world of passer-by heroines, it is normal for some changes to occur, and she herself forgot when the original work Lixia Zhiqiu wrote the love metronome.

The official school bell rang, and the club activities came to an end.

Covering her mouth with her slender hands, Sakurano yawned lazily and silently.

Her working hours are also temporarily over.

Next, Sakuya or Yukino will push her home, and along the way, Sakura will use her eyes to appreciate all the beauty around her.

Students in groups of twos and threes, clean and tidy streets, and a wide variety of shops.

On the way, I will stop by to buy some ingredients to go back.

Yukino who heard the ringtone gently closed "Oriental Fantasy Township".

Because she read it with her heart, she didn't read much, she only read a little content, and she couldn't comment on this book yet.

It's just that this book is not that simple, it's a little different from those light novels, it doesn't feel like a light novel.

After reading it, you may know the answer.

Yukino raised her head, just in time to see Sakura who was yawning.

Feminine, gentle and decent, like Sakura, a lady of ancient times.

Yukino has a panoramic view of Sakura's charming every move.

After Sakurano finished yawning, she got up and made a sound.

"Sister Sakura, it's time to go home."

【Good= ̄ω ̄=】

..........

The door of the apartment——

When Ying Nao and others came back, there were already people waiting here for a long time.

It was a mature woman in business attire.

Sonoko Machida, editor of Sakurano.

Although Sakura is the editor herself, the book she wrote still needs an editor to be in charge, which can also help a lot for Sakura who is physically handicapped.

Seeing Sakurano and the others coming back, Machida Sonoko greeted them with suppressed excitement in her eyes.

"Mr. Sakura Song."

[Good evening, Yuanzi, I have to trouble you again today. 】

Also due to physical inconvenience, Machida Sonoko is responsible for sending the manuscript to Sakurano for review, and then taking it back from Sakurano, and resending the failed works to the author. Nai's manuscript was reviewed.

"Where."

Sonoko Machida shook her head again and again.

It seems to be much busier than ordinary editors.

In fact, Sakura, the pinnacle of the industry, is now her author. She is a great author, of course she is happy, and because Sakura is an editor, the works written basically don't need Machida Sonoko to worry about it, just read it roughly, and Sakura never procrastinates.

Thinking of this, Machida Sonoko couldn't help crying.

It would be great if those authors were like Sakura no Uta-sensei.

She no longer has to chase those authors home all day long to urge manuscripts.

Not to mention revising an original manuscript ten times, and even asking her, the editor, to come down and help revise and write it in person.

Moreover, Sakura has discovered good authors, but if she doesn't want them herself, the first thing she thinks of is Machida Enko, and she will recommend these authors to Machida Enko.

This wave is a big guy who can take it with peace of mind.

A few people entered the room, Sakuya hugged Sakura to the sofa, and then went to make tea, and Yukino sat beside Sakura to accompany Sakura.

After everyone sat down, Sakura took out the manuscripts in her schoolbag.

It is divided into two parts. Kasumigaoka's "Love Metronome" is a separate copy, and the other manuscripts are combined into one copy.

Sonoko Machida put away the joy and excitement hidden in her eyes, and focused on these manuscripts first.

She looked surprised and smiled wryly.

"Sakura no Uta teacher is still so strict."

She could see that none of the original manuscripts passed the test this time.

The one that was released separately was recommended to her, and it was not considered a pass.

14. The eldest lady is the pillar of the slaughter list!

[It's not that it's harsh, the main reason is that I don't have that much time. 】

Sakura sighed, looking helpless.

[Yuanzi also knows that as an editor, all he can do is to prune a tree to make it grow healthier and better. It takes too much time and effort to get the roots back to health, and there's nothing I can do about it. 】

The core of a book is the root of a tree, and if you want to improve the root of a tree, you have to attack the core.

Not to mention that most authors are unwilling to change their core. Once they do something about the core, it will turn one book into another book, and it will take as much energy and time as editing a new one.

She can make any book that doesn't pass the review excellent, as long as the author is obedient.

But it is too time and energy consuming.

"Yeah, if there is a problem with the roots, there is nothing to do."

Machida Sonoko couldn't help sighing, and then shook her head to get rid of the sighing look, and ended the topic with a chuckle.

“And if we were to change the core of a book, we would be writing the book ourselves.”

After all, Machida Sonoko picked up Kasumigaoka's manuscript and looked at the sticky note attached to the manuscript.

"Hmm...has potential but why wouldn't it be a good fit?"

[The ideal type of author is not suitable for me. You know, I am full of realistic type authors. 】

"Is it the ideal type of author..."

Machida Sonoko looked at the title of the book and the name of the author thoughtfully.

[If you find it troublesome, you can recommend it to other editors, anyway, the potential is indeed there. 】

Ideal writers, writing is an ideal for them, and in their eyes, writing is a sacred thing.

This kind of writer is the easiest to work against the editor, and it is not easy to achieve results.

"When the other party submits the manuscript next time, I'll take a look and make a decision."

Machida Sonoko did not immediately refuse.

The manuscript was collected by Sonoko Machida and put into a briefcase.

Sakuya also brought up the brewed black tea.

Machida Sonoko took a sip of tea, took a deep breath, and looked at Sakura seriously.

"Mr. Song of Sakura, are you paying attention to the results of the new work?"

[No, is it bad? 】

"How could it be bad!"

The excitement in her heart made Machida Sonoko cry out directly.

Immediately afterwards, Machida Sonoko realized her gaffe, and quickly covered her mouth.

After calming down for a while, he spoke again.

"Ahem, sorry, I lost my temper, but there is a reason for this."

Sonoko Machida took out her mobile phone, clicked on the light novel sales data, and placed it in front of Sakurano's desk.

"The sales volume of both books in the first week is close to 15! You just won the top three!"

Sakura picked up her phone and checked it.

Last week's sales list:

First place: "Sword Art Online" No.16 volume, sales 219.372

Second place: Volume 143.852 of "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic", sold [-]

Third place: Volume 0 of "re141.628: Life in Another World from Zero", sales [-]

Sixth place: Volume 119.364 of "Fantasy Demon Sword", sales volume [-]

Seventh place: Volume 76.268 of "Oriental Fantasy Township", sales volume [-]

While Sakura was watching, Machida Sonoko spoke excitedly, almost dancing around.

"If things go on like this, there will be no problem for Teacher Sakurazhige's new book to break 100 million copies in a single volume this month!"
