I Am a Master of Light Novels in Japan

I Became a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 28

——[After all... After all, we are partners, isn't it a matter of course to know the sales volume? 】

Ying Lili faltered and said that she was worried that these sales involved company secrets, and Li Yan revealed it to her.

"Don't worry, I'm just asking casually. If it doesn't involve company secrets, the information will be published on the website in a short time. And you know it's quite reasonable, and you're not someone outside the company. I'm just curious It’s just that Uesugi-sensei has such a close relationship.” Kagurazaka Iris said with a smile.

Ying Lili immediately fell silent, and soon, Ying Lili hurriedly explained.

——[We are partners after all, we had a good communication about the illustration last time, of course we have a good relationship. 】

"That's good, and I'm relieved. Ueyama-sensei's novel and your illustrations are a wonderful collaboration, and such a result is expected." Kagurazaka Iris said happily.

However, Ying Lili still asked with doubts: [What about Xia Shizi? 】

"...The sales volume of Xia Shizi was in my expectation long before it was put on the shelves." Kagurazaka Iris said after pondering for a while.

——[Then why? Why do you know that there are such big mistakes in that book, but you deliberately caused a sales competition between her and Uesugi, so that it would destroy her series of works? 】

Ying Lili asked with a reproachful voice.

"It is precisely because I know that the sales of Kasumi Shiko's next volume will have a major decline, so I did this on purpose. Although it is a coincidence, the conflict caused by Uesugi-sensei and Kasumi Shiko may be a good thing. That’s why I took this one step further.”

Kagurazaka Iris said with a faint smile.

Ying Lili was stunned, a little confused, and wanted to ask something on the phone, but Kagurazaka Iris said what she wanted to ask.

Kagurazaka Iris said: "In fact, the fifth volume of "Love Metronome" did not have any major mistakes, but there were very serious mistakes in the fourth volume. In the fourth volume, Xia Shizi suddenly appeared in the plot When it reached the peak, suddenly, the male and female protagonists who were gradually warming up were separated for reasons of different ambitions, which caused a large number of readers to complain to Sanhe Bunko, and lost many loyal readers. Therefore, Sanhe Bunko itself has no expectations for sales of the fifth volume."

She looked at the heavy rain outside the window and said, "It's just that I won't give up on any of my writers. Even if the sales volume is too poor, the company will be held accountable if they put it on the shelves rashly. I also hope that Xia Shizi will continue to write. After all, I am Everyone's editors, if you don't stand up at this time, how can you prevent Xia Shizi from quitting the novel world? So... I put all my hopes on Uesugi-sensei."

Ying Lili was dumbfounded.

It turns out that the chess played by Kagurazaka Iris is even bigger than imagined.

【咚咚咚】.

"Editor Kagurazaka, now the president wants you to go over and talk about some things about the poor sales of Kasumi Shiko's works."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of Kagurazaka Iris, which made Kagurazaka Iris slightly taken aback. Then she pondered for a while and said, "Well, I see, thank you."

"Sure enough, he was held accountable."

Kagurazaka Iris habitually stretched out his hand, pinched his chin and thought about how to answer questions from the president and other high-level executives. After all, there was a sudden problem with the sales volume of first-line authors, and she, as the responsible editor, bears a considerable responsibility.

"That's it, I'm going to the president's office." Kagurazaka Iris said with a smile.

——【Wait a minute, Ms. Kagurazaka, I still don’t understand, why did you suddenly involve Mr. Li... Uesugi? 】

"...Xia Shizi's talent should be recognized by everyone, but she also has an obvious weakness, that is, she is too emotional and easily disturbed by the outside world."

Kagurazaka Iris opened the door, said with a smile: "Ms. Uesugi has a characteristic that makes people understand what they need to do when they see it. I think Kasumi Shiko will understand in the future."

...

Tokyo, Koto Ward.

In the misty world, the green trees are lush, the streets are empty, and the quiet Tokyo is immersed in this peaceful world. In the quiet coffee street, he stood at the subway entrance and came to Jiangdong District.

Standing at the entrance of the subway, Li Yan thought it would rain heavily for an hour, but now it is still pouring. As a result, he and other passers-by who came out of the subway could only wait at the door for a while.

"It's so heavy that the rain just called me out. Can't you admit defeat to me again?" Li Yan looked at the sky with lightning and thunder, and the gray rain scene, thinking silently.

The sales gap is too big, so it is already a sure win, but what is surprising is that he thought that the arrogant Xia Shizi would wait a few days before requesting an interview with him, but she directly sent a message saying she would. A text message that fulfills a promise.

After all, the sales competition this time was not won entirely because of his strength, but because of serious problems with Xia Shizi's own works. If there is a problem, Li Yan also guessed that it might be in the fourth volume. Although the sales volume of the fourth volume is the highest in the "Love Metronome" series, it is because of the serious mistakes in the previous volume that it directly led to the fifth volume. The release was delayed several times, and even sales were not satisfactory.

"Forget it, I don't need to think about her anymore, anyway, I won, this is the most important thing." Li Yan calmly straightened his suit, thinking.

Suddenly, commotion came from the subway entrance behind him.

"Wait a minute, who is that woman, you must make it clear today!"

"Can you control it, you bitch?"

Li Yan and the others were taken aback. Looking back at the stairs, a muscular young man was embracing a young girl, and a woman in her twenties who looked very gorgeously made up had an argument.

"Takuya, why did you do this? Are you worthy of me? I worked so hard to support the two of us, yet you betrayed me..."

"This is all voluntary by you. Since you found out, I don't plan to be with you anymore. You old woman should get away from me."

Li Yan looked at each other and thought to himself: "Why is there such a thing again? It's really annoying to read, so...the stupid idea of ​​always thinking that you can give anything if you have love is written in light novels. What a wrong society. Misleading..."

But this time there were so many people, he didn't dare to meddle in the other party's personal affairs rashly, pretending not to see it, causing conflicts here, and he would probably be sent back to his country.

The woman in her twenties rushed up, grabbed the young man's arm, and shouted: "Let's go home, Takuya, even if it's like this, I will forgive you, as long as our relationship can be restored... "

Suddenly, a muffled sound caught Li Yan's attention. He turned his head and saw the young man pushing the begging woman to the ground.

"That's enough, it's really embarrassing." The young man said with a sneer.

Li Yan stared blankly, the original indifference in his eyes gradually exuded intense anger.

"..."

At the foot of the crowded stairs, a road suddenly parted, and when the muscular young man realized someone was coming, that powerful punch had already landed heavily on his cheek.

With a snap, blood splashed directly.

But this man named Takuya didn't seem to be an ordinary person, he immediately backed away, and he didn't suffer much damage. He stared at Li Yan angrily, and shouted: "Who are you kid?!"

"I'm the one who sent you to hell." Li Yan tore off his tie, exuding that anger, and rushed over after speaking.

...

In a semi-outdoor coffee shop, Kasumi Hill Shiyu was still waiting for Li Yan to come over.

There is a cup of coffee in front of the table, the long black hair is draped over the chair, and the unparalleled beauty of the face attracts everyone passing by, as if this piece of girl sitting alone in the rain is a perfect oil painting.

"late."

At 3:35, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu looked at the time on the phone, and suddenly darkened his face, and said coldly.

She just took out her mobile phone and wanted to use the line to ask, but suddenly the phone rang, and it was still an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" Xiazhiqiu Shiyu answered and asked.

"Hello, is this Miss Xia Shizi?" A strange man asked.

"Yes, may I ask who you are?" Xiazhiqiu Shiyu asked curiously.
