I Signed-In in Tokyo - Chapter 180

[Chapter 180 The deformed light novel market is burning money!]

Surprisingly, Yukino Yukinoshita had read “Metronome in Love” by Shiyu Kasumigaoka, and even the first two volumes were collected and released in this service department.

But because of this, Yukinoshita Yukino also analyzed the reason why Shiyu of Kasumigaoka’s second volume was tragically at Waterloo, and it seemed that her analysis seemed to be correct.

At least looking at Shiyu of the Hill of Xia, she didn’t mean to refute at all, but fell into silence.

Just like this, the atmosphere of the scene becomes very subtle.

Even Hiratsuka Shizuo, who had a bad expression on her face when she followed Lynn into the classroom, found that the atmosphere in the air was not as optimistic as she expected.

so……

Looking at Lynn subconsciously, Shizuo Hiratsuka gave him a wink.

The old lady sold all the favors!

Is it time for you to do something too?

“Yukishita-san, can I read the two books in your hand?”

After receiving Jing’s cute wink, Lynn also knew that he could not escape.

Yukino simply borrowed the two light novels in her hand from Yukinoshita, then found a chair and sat down, and began to read the contents.

Because the time was tight, Lynn didn’t have time to read it carefully, so he could only browse it roughly. Using the speed of reading online articles in the past, he simply smoothed the contents of the two volumes.

How should I say it, just looking at the writing, Kasumigaoka Shiyu has definitely reached a level above excellent.

However, just as Yukino Yukino commented, the plot is slightly weaker. Although a lot of dog food is sprinkled throughout, the turning points are not enough. Overall, this is not an excellent work. But there is still a long way to go before the top hits.

By the way, is the entertainment industry in this world also very developed?

Since coming to this world, Lynn has not had much chance to investigate the entertainment works of this world.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also rummaged through the Internet.

Just after a round of investigation…

How should I say it, just looking at the light novels, it doesn’t seem to be very good?

Lynn found out.

At present, on the Dongying market, more than 80% of the popular works are the fantasy of traveling through another world, and there is almost no living soil for other themes.

Although it can’t be said that the fantasy of traveling through another world is not good, the development trend of this dominant family is quite deformed in Lynn’s view.

Let’s rummage through the online literature of the Ming Dynasty…

ho!

Good guy, the top water in the rankings is a different world dragon Aotian!

It’s no wonder that Dongying’s light novel market has become like this, and Ganqing is also influenced by her father.

As for the reason for the failure of Kasumigaoka Shiyu’s work to be released…

Well, this Lynn found it too.

The genre of the works is popular and unpopular in the market, and Shiyu of Kasumigaoka’s works are relatively immature, and there are indeed some flaws.

In this case, it seems to be a matter of course that the publishing house is not optimistic and faced with a cut in half.

“Okay, the problem is almost clear.”

After turning off the phone screen and returning the two light novels to Yukinoshita Yukino, Lynn nodded and said.

This made everyone look suspicious.

What’s the problem?

“What’s the meaning?”

Sonoko, who didn’t understand this, blinked his eyes, his eyes full of puzzlement.

“The questions in the book, Yukinoshita-classmates have said almost the same, so I won’t repeat them.”

“Now let me talk about why this book is not selling well.”

“Simply put… It’s Kasumigaoka-senpai, your book doesn’t really get much attention in terms of publishers, right?”

Seeing that everyone’s eyes were on him, Lynn didn’t sell anything.

He pointed to the book in Yukinoshita’s hand, and then turned his attention to Shiyu of Kasumigaoka.

Just this sentence points to the point!

Is the book of Shiyu of Kasumigaoka not taken seriously?

Yes, that’s right.

As a new author, she is definitely not as important as an old author. Although there should be no shortage of publicity, but after the sales of the first volume of novels are average, and the second volume has fallen seriously, her third volume of novels Before she could write, her editor cryptically revealed to her the fact that she was about to be cut in half.

If it is taken seriously, how can this happen?

Thinking of this, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu’s face suddenly showed a wry smile.

“If the follow-up publicity is not in place, it will be difficult for new readers to contribute to sales.”

“I checked on the Internet just now, Kasugaoka-senpai, your book basically has no topic at all.”

“How can you raise sales under such circumstances?”

Exactly as Lynn said.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu’s works are indeed encountering the dilemma of insufficient topicality.

In fact, in the original plot, she seems to have encountered this situation in the early stage, or rely on the male protagonist… What is it called? It doesn’t matter, anyway, it is relying on the influence of the dead otaku on the Internet to help her promote her work, so that she can avoid being cut in half.

But look at it now, it seems that the dead man of the original plot hasn’t appeared yet?

Anyway, the works of Shiyu of Kasumigaoka are still a little transparent. If there are no changes during the period, it will be really difficult for her third volume to be released.

“So what should we do now? Will you help Kasumigaoka-senpai with publicity?”

Lynn has already made what he said so clearly, and everyone naturally understood what he meant.

Even Sonoko nodded along with him, and opened his mouth subconsciously.

But just after Sonoko finished saying those words, Xiaolan gently tugged at the corner of her clothes.

This made Yuanzi puzzled, but she saw Xiaolan shaking her head slightly, and then gestured towards Lin En with her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Sonoko came to his senses, and his body stepped back a little, but did not continue to talk about this topic.

“Propaganda? That’s a good choice.”

“But we currently lack relevant channels and talents who are good at online publicity.”

“On our own, it’s not going to help at all.”

Sonoko retreated to Lynn’s side under Xiaolan’s reminder, but her words made Yukinoshita Yukino find a reasonable way to deal with it.

It is a pity that even if there is a method, it is even more difficult to implement.

After all, as she said, without channels and manpower, how difficult is it to promote a work?

“Then spend money to promote it.”

Yukino Yukino frowned, but at this moment, Shizuo Hiratsuka suddenly let out such a voice.

She didn’t think too much about it, and even in her opinion, there was no channel or manpower, and it could be solved just by spending money.

But the question is, is it really as easy as she says it is?

“Mr. Hiratsuka, how much do you think it will cost to promote an online promotion?”

“If it was so easy to increase sales, the publishers would have done it long ago.”

There was no need for anyone to say anything about Jing Kawai’s innocent thoughts, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu himself shook his head first.

In fact, she is somewhat familiar with the matter of online promotion. Even the publishing house she signed with has this business, but generally those who can be promoted online are basically those writers who have already become famous. She is a newcomer. There can be no such treatment.

“Um… how much will it cost?”

Shizuo Hiratsuka doesn’t have much contact with the Internet. After all, as a teacher, if she can often surf the Internet, it means that she is incompetent in this profession.

But without access to the Internet, Shizuo Hiratsuka is a little rich woman, so when she heard that it would cost money, she immediately asked the price.

only……

“It depends on the situation.”

“If you are just looking for some well-known small anchors or UP masters to promote, the price is not expensive, about 500,000 to 1 million.”

“But if you go to those top influencers to promote it, or buy ads on the website, the price will be very high.”

“Tens of millions can only be regarded as the starting price.”

Regarding this question, it was Lynn who could give Shizuka Hiratsuka the answer.

After all, he has already settled in the ACGN barrage network, and he has some understanding of the publicity expenses on this network.

The development of the Internet in this world is not inferior to the world before he crossed. The development of the Internet has also spawned all walks of life. The various Internet celebrities that Lynn had seen before crossing, the same is true in this world.

Therefore, placing advertisements on major websites, or finding Internet celebrity anchors to promote, are important means of promotion.

That’s the price…

It is no exaggeration to say that it is burning money!

“so much?”

Sure enough, after hearing what Lynn said, Shizuo Hiratsuka clicked her tongue.

Although she is a little rich woman, when she heard that tens of millions of Ying Yuan was just starting, she felt that she was just a poor man.

“I can’t do this kind of propaganda…”

It wasn’t just Hiratsuka Shizuo who was frightened by the price.

When Shiyu of Kasumigaoka heard this number, she also shook her head gently.

Although the half-cut of the work made her feel low, she was not reconciled to failure like this.

But this price is really not acceptable to her.

Isn’t it.

With the little money she earned from publishing, even if all of it goes in, it’s not enough for a fraction.

In this case, what other choice does she have?

“You can’t do this kind of thing to ask people to help you, you really have to give up.”

“but!”

“The way of online promotion is right, I think you can try it.”

Should I say… as expected of Yukinoshita Yukino?

Even though she knew it was difficult to do, she still insisted on doing it.

“What are you going to do?”

Hearing Yukino Yukino’s insistence, everyone’s eyes turned to her.

Especially Hiratsuka Shizuo, she was looking forward to asking, after all, she is the daughter of Yukinoshita’s family, with such excellent genes, she must be able to make better suggestions, right?

However……

“I need to learn the strategy of online promotion from scratch and formulate future promotion plans.”

? ? ?

You are planning to start from scratch!

But after you learn it, isn’t even the day lily cold?
