The publicity of "White Night Walk" is very strong.

Although no offline book signing event was held.

However, Xinchao still invested a lot of publicity expenses and advertised in various media and newspapers.

In addition, the quality of "White Night Walking" itself is very good, it is a boutique work in popular fiction, the story is wonderful, the plot is intertwined, and people can't stop.

So even though it's just 'newcomer work'.

But it quickly burst out of its own energy.

80,000 copies sold in the first week.

The second week, with a good reputation, there are still a large number of readers, commentators of tap recommendations.

Sales directly reversed by half, 120,000 copies.

In the third week, sales increased again, 200,000 copies.

By the fourth week, it was slightly lower.

But it still sold 190,000 copies.

Since then, in one month, the sales of "White Night Walking" have reached more than 500,000 copies.

And Kitahara Ma also achieved the horror record of selling more than 500,000 copies in three books and exceeding one million copies in two.

Some high-ranking officials of the Xinchao Society who knew the inside story called out that they had picked up the treasure.

The direct economic value that Kitahara alone and three books brought to them by Shinshoshisha has exceeded five billion yen.

This is still without calculating the hidden value of brand fame, market expansion rate and so on.

This shows how important a popular writer is to a publishing house.

Some of the high-ranking executives of the Shinshi Society who originally complained about Yamamoto and Noboru Kitahara for such high conditions.

Now when Yamamoto and Noboru are mentioned, their faces are full of spring breeze and praise.

There is no cold eye from before.

He was even more humble to Kitahara, and he couldn't wait to kneel and lick him.

After all, writers like this want to have status, sales, and awards.

That's the lifeblood of a publishing house, the pillar of it.

As long as Kitahara really does not leave the New Tide Society.

Then he is the first brother of the New Tide Society.

In addition to a few veteran writers in their sixties and seventies, they can also be compared with him by virtue of their qualifications.

The other writers are not worth mentioning in front of him.

Best of all, he's only nineteen years old this year.

The professional life of a writer is very long.

As long as you don't take the initiative to seal the pen, even if you write until you are seventy or eighty years old, there is no problem.

There is no end in sight to the value he can create in the future.

Now even if Kitahara really let those high-level officials of the New Tide Society call him a hegemon.

None of those people hesitated.

Coaxing him well can bring at least one billion yen in benefits to the New Tide Society every year.

Don't talk about shouting hegemony, shouting grandpa is okay.

Fortunately, Kitahara really does not have this hobby of making a group of old men call him a bully.

......

Big Dipper anime.

Spacious and bright in the president's office.

Kitahara sat on the leather seat and looked at the somewhat restrained man in front of him.

Wearing a simple plaid top and jeans, and a thick pair of black-framed glasses, he was a little thin and looked a little introverted.

Makoto Shinkai, who was born in 73, is 33 years old this year.

Two years ago, he had just completed his first feature-length animation "The Other Side of the Clouds, The Agreed Place".

Although this anime won the 59th Toei Mainichi Screening Award Animation Award.

But it didn't splash too much.

It can even be said that there are no waves.

Before he really makes a name for himself in the anime industry, he will have to wait for him to make the cartoon "5 centimeters per second" next year.

So now Makoto Shinkai is still a little transparent in the anime industry.

However, those who know the future cannot ignore the energy contained in this man.

"Your Name" Toei box office 25.1 billion yen, global box office 350 million US dollars, breaking the box office record of 'Anime God Hayao Miyazaki' "Spirited Away", becoming Toei's highest-grossing anime film in the world.

"Children of the Weather" Toei box office 14.2 billion yen, "Suzuya Journey" Toei box office 14.79 billion yen.

Known as the most promising man to succeed Miyazaki.

Kitahara really looked at Shinkai Makoto.

Makoto Shinkai was also looking at him.

When he received an invitation from NicoNico Animation, his first reaction was stunned.

Because he didn't expect that Nico Nico Animation would invite him to be an anime director.

This sounds a little incredible, after all, he is still a nameless little transparent in the anime industry.

However, out of dedication to his dream, Shinkai Makoto came with a half-believing attitude.

Then when he came to the Big Dipper anime and saw Kitahara Makoto, his whole person was blindfolded.

That's right, Makoto Shinkai knows Kitahara Makoto.

Because as an anime director, a storyteller.

Maintaining good reading habits is a must.

Makoto Shinkai has read the two books "Human Disqualification" and "Norwegian Forest".

I have also seen reports about Kitahara Makoto, and I have seen photos of Kitahara Makoto.

More interesting.

His dream though is to make anime.

But when he was in college.

I read 'Toei Literature Department, Faculty of Literature, Chuo University'!

So for literature, he always has a heart of admiration.

I admire and admire Kitahara Zhen for achieving such brilliant achievements in the field of literature at such a young age.

Comparing his life in his thirties, but still 'achieving nothing', he is even more impressed in his heart.

"Kitahara-sensei."

"Director Makoto Shinkai, you're welcome, sit..."

Kitahara got up and asked Makoto Shinkai to sit down on the sofa.

The secretary brought the brewed coffee.

Kitahara Zhen said with a smile: "I watched your "She and Her Cat", although it is not long, it is very interesting, and I can see that the author is very attentive. "

Xinhai Makoto hurriedly said: "Thank you for the compliment. "

"Actually, I have also read your "Human Disqualification" and "Norwegian Forest", I like these two works very much, you may not know, I studied literature in college..."

The two praised each other a few words, seeing that the timing was almost right, Kitahara really said straight to the point.

"Big Dipper Anime is my company, the purpose of inviting you here this time, the people below should have already told you director Makoto Shinkai."

"I wonder how you think about it?"

Speaking of business, it was about his dreams, and Makoto Shinkai's expression began to become serious.

"I myself am very willing to do this in principle."

"But I don't know what kind of animation Kitahara-sensei do you want me to make?"

Seeing Makoto Shinkai take the bait, Kitahara smiled in his heart, got up and took out a novel from the drawer and handed it to him.

The big white leather cover has a few big words written on it:

君の名は
