I am a writer in Naruto
Chapter 45
That day, after Red Bean and Momoko finally finalized the manuscript fee and payment method for "Konoha Love Story", the night was already dark, and she left in a hurry.
Momoko was left alone in the office again, deserted. After finishing all the work at hand, I leaned back in my chair and relaxed, and picked up the manuscript again.
After reading it carefully, Momoko breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "This author is really appetizing, I don't know how sweet the love story between Maruko and Miss Lixiang will be!"
picked a few points on the corners of her lips, and Momoko did not have a low evaluation of this novel. Iwanami Bookstore, it's been a long time since Iwanami Shoten has received such a explosive manuscript.
The phone was pinching the manuscript, and suddenly a question flashed through my mind. She hurriedly turned the manuscript page by page, and the corners of her mouth twitched after making sure again...
Holding his forehead, the manuscript that Fang Hongdou brought over was only the content of the first chapter, about 20,000 words. Shaking her head, Peaches thought a little irritably: No, it's too little!
If it's only 20,000 words, even if the word is enlarged by one number, the printed book will be super thin! In general, the books they publish are 7-100,000 words per book. Take the current popular "Intimacy Paradise" as an example, it is a standard version of 100,000 words a volume.
How this is published is really a question. Putting the manuscript down, Momoko began to think sadly, how to publish this "Konoha Love Story"?
This is also to blame for Momoko herself, when the red bean manuscript came over just now, she read the beginning, and felt that "Konoha Love Story" was different from the "routine" books she had seen before, and then she was fascinated as soon as she read it!
In addition, when Hongdou was talking to her about the price, she directly opened her mouth, so she also forgot about it! Alas, now she can only go to Hongdou to talk about this matter, and by the way, she wants the next draft!
But it was already late at night, and it was rude to disturb others at this time. Momoko thought about it for a while and set the time for tomorrow after work, just in time to be able to do without overtime, the best of both worlds.
Mitarai Azuki's home lives in the middle of the village, which is the most prosperous area of the entire Konoha Village, the home is not particularly large, living alone, there is a cherry tree in front of the door, there are no leaves, and it is quite happy to be bare.
When the sunset dyed half of the sky red, Momoko stood panting in front of the house of the Mitarai family, looking at the sign hanging on the door with a frightened face, "Out of the mission, the master is not at home", messy in the wind!
Peaches is a little depressed, you must know that she is just an ordinary person, and there is not a trace of chakra on her! It took her more than half an hour to walk to Mitarai's house!
In fact, if Peaches could come a little earlier, they might be able to meet the red beans, and the two of them are the front foot and the back foot, which is just staggered.
"Alas..."sighed, Momoko could only turn around and leave helplessly, thinking as she went: Is it possible to wait for the next few chapters to be published together after the red bean returns from the mission?
The 20,000-word novel is too thin, and the cover of their Iwanami Bookstore book is made of cardboard with color plates, so if there are too many volumes, the cost will be too high. Moreover, I don't know if it will sell or not, so the best way is to wait for the red beans to come back.
The bustling heart of the city is still full of people. Peaches walked and walked, a little hungry, she ate a little bit for breakfast today, and it was a coincidence that when she stopped, it happened to be the signature barbecue of Konoha Village - barbecue Q!
Touching her somewhat wilted stomach, Peaches stepped into the door of the barbecue Q without hesitation, and after ordering the meal, she followed the waiter to find a single table and sit down.
In today's Hokage world, there are no mobile phones, just like many years ago, everyone didn't have mobile phones. Entertainment and pastime are still dominated by paper media.
Newspapers or magazines are usually placed on the dinner table for the guests waiting to read and pass the time. As the hottest yakiniku Q in Konoha Village, the guests are often full, and sometimes the food is served slowly, so newspapers and magazines are indispensable.
There were some neatly placed on her desk, and Momoko took them all, intending to find a copy to read if she was interested, but as soon as she picked it up, a small book fell out with a "click"!
"Huh?" Putting down the magazines, newspapers, etc., Momoko picked up the small book very curiously and said, "Isn't this a pocket book?"
Pocket books are the jargon of publishing houses, which refers to the smallest size of books, the size of a palm, that can fit directly into a pocket. When I opened it, I understood that the contents of it were comic books, the kind of small picture album for children.
It should be someone's child who accidentally left it behind.
Iwanami Shoten also prints these pocket books, but there are only a handful of them. Unlike ordinary books, these pocket books can be sold directly in convenience stores and grocery stores, and they can be sold in a more flexible way than ordinary books.
Many shops, restaurants and the like, in order to attract children, will put some at the door, children come in, are you afraid that parents will not enter?
Momoko is a businessman, a businessman who is appreciated by the big boss behind the scenes of Iwanami Bookstore, and her sensitivity to some business opportunities is not ordinarily strong.
After flipping through the pocket book, she rubbed it a few more times, and suddenly she had a whim! Print "Konoha Love Story" as a pocket book!
A palm-sized page, after printing the words, I am at most a page of 100 words, 20,000 words, it happens to be able to be a hundred pieces of paper, and it will not be too thin to the touch.
Moreover, in this way, the sales of "Konoha Love Story" can not only be limited to bookstores, but also ordinary shops, restaurants, and even taverns, as long as you give a little profit.
"Miss, your barbecue is here."
At this time, the waiter also brought the barbecue, and Peaches retracted her thoughts and said "thank you" with a light smile!
Momoko is in a very good mood, the ghost knows how long it will take for a shinobi to go out on a mission, she doesn't want to delay it any longer, and now the problem is solved.
The most important thing is that the barbecue has been served, put this thing aside, the world is big, and the meal is the biggest!
Momoko is very efficient, and she will do it as soon as she thinks of it. So after eating and drinking to her heart's content, she decisively returned to the bookstore, and then began to prepare for the printing of "Konoha Love Story".
The first time was also to test the waters, she was going to print 10,000 copies of the pocket book "Konoha Love Story", and only sell it in Konoha for the time being, to see if she could open the market.
