Surprisingly, Yukinoshita Yukino has read Kasumigaoka Shiwa's "Love Metronome", and even has the first two volumes collected and released in this service department.
However, because of this, Yukinoshita Yukino also analyzed the reason why Kasumigaoka Shiyu's second volume was tragically suffered by Waterloo, and it seems that her analysis seems to be quite correct.
At least looking at Xiazhiqiu Shiyu on the opposite side, she didn't mean to refute at all, but fell into silence.
Only in this way, the atmosphere at the scene became very delicate.
Even Shizuka Hiratsuka, who followed Lynn into the classroom with a somewhat unfriendly expression, found that the atmosphere in the air was not as optimistic as she expected.
so…
Subconsciously looking at Lynn, Hiratsuka gave him a wink.
The old lady sold all the favors!
Is it time for you to do something too
"Student Yukinoshita, can I read those two books in your hand?"
After receiving Jing's cute wink, Lin En also knew that he couldn't escape.
She simply borrowed the two light novels from Yukinoshita Yukino, then found a chair and sat down, and began to read the contents inside.
Because time was tight, Lin En didn't have time to read it carefully, so he could only browse it roughly, using the speed of reading online articles back then, to simply smooth out the contents of the two volumes.
How should I put it, just looking at the writing style, Kasumigaoka Shiyu has definitely reached the level of excellence.
However, just as Yukinoshita Yukino commented, the plot is a little weaker. Although there is a lot of dog food scattered throughout the story, there are not enough turning points. Overall, this is not an excellent work. But there is still a big gap from 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 many opportunities to investigate the entertainment works of this world.
Simply taking advantage of this opportunity, he also rummaged through the Internet.
Just after a pass of investigation...
How should I put it, just looking at the light novels, it doesn't seem to be a big deal
Lynn found out.
At present, in Dongying's market, more than 80% of the popular works are all fantasy world travel, and there is almost no living soil for other themes.
Although it can't be said that the fantasy of traveling through different worlds is not good, this kind of development trend dominated by one family is quite deformed in Lin En's view.
Let's look through the online literature of the Ming Dynasty...
Whoa!
Good guy, Yishui at the top of the leaderboard is the otherworldly dragon Aotian!
It's no wonder Dongying's light novel market has become like this, Ganqing is also influenced by her father.
As for the reasons why Kasumigaoka Shiwa's works failed to be released...
Well, this Lynn found it too.
The type of works has a low audience and is not popular in the market, and Kasumigaoka Shiwa's works are relatively immature, and there are indeed some flaws.
In this case, it seems to be a matter of course to not be favored by the publishing house and face a cut in half.
"Well, the problem is almost cleared up."
After turning off the phone screen and returning the two light novels to Yukinoshita Yukino, Lynn nodded and said.
This made everyone look puzzled.
What is the problem
"What's the meaning?"
Yuanzi, who didn't understand the words, blinked his eyes, his eyes were full of puzzlement.
"The questions in the book are almost covered by Yukinoshita, so I won't repeat them."
"Now let me talk about the problem of why this book did not sell well."
"To put it simply... Kasumigaoka-senpai, your book is actually not taken seriously by the publishing house, right?"
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Lin En didn't hold back anymore.
Pointing to the book in Yukinoshita's hand, he turned his gaze to Xiazhiqiu Shiyu.
Just this one sentence hits the nail on the head!
Is Kasumigaoka Shiwa's book not taken seriously
Yes, that's right.
As a newcomer author, she certainly cannot be valued as much as an old author. Although there is no shortage of publicity, but after the sales of the first volume of the novel were mediocre, and the sales of the second volume fell sharply, her third volume of novels Before she could start writing, her editor had already implicitly revealed to her the fact that she was about to lose half.
If it is taken seriously, how could this happen
Thinking of this, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu suddenly showed a wry smile on his face.
"If the follow-up publicity is not in place, it will be difficult for new readers to contribute to sales."
"Just now I checked on the Internet, Kasumigaoka-senpai, your book basically doesn't have any topicality at all."
"How can you increase sales under such circumstances?"
Indeed, 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 kind of situation in the early stage, or relied on the male lead...what is it called? It doesn't matter, anyway, relying on the influence of the dead otaku male protagonist on the Internet to help her promote her works, it saved her from being cut in half.
But looking at it now, it seems that the dead otaku protagonist of the original plot hasn't appeared yet
Anyway, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's works 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? Help Kasumigaoka-senpai do publicity?"
Lin En had already made his words so clear, everyone naturally understood what he meant.
Even Yuanzi nodded along, and subconsciously opened his mouth.
But just after Yuanzi finished speaking, Xiaolan gently tugged at the corner of her clothes.
Yuanzi couldn't help being puzzled by this, but Xiaolan shook her head slightly, and gestured towards Lynn with her eyes.
Seeing this scene, Sonoko finally came to his senses, stepped back a little, and did not continue to talk about this topic.
"Do you want to do publicity? This is indeed 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's a pity that even if there is a method, it is even more difficult to implement it.
After all, as she said, without channels and manpower, how difficult is it to promote a work
"Then spend money to promote it."
Yukinoshita Yukino frowned, but at this moment, Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly made such a voice.
She didn't think too much about it, and even in her opinion, without channels and manpower, it could be solved by spending money.
But the question is, is it really as easy as she said
"Mr. Hiratsuka, how much do you think it will cost to advertise on the Internet?"
"If it was really that simple to increase sales, the publishing house would have done it long ago."
Regarding Jing's cute and innocent thoughts, there is no need for others to say, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu shook her head first.
In fact, she is more or less aware of the matter of Internet promotion, and even the publishing house she signed has this business, but generally those who can be promoted on the Internet are basically those writers who have already become famous. Such treatment is impossible.
"Uh...how much will it cost?"
Hiratsuka Shizuka doesn't have much contact with the Internet. After all, as a teacher, if she can often hang out on the Internet, it means that she is not competent for this job at all.
But without access to the Internet, Hiratsuka Shizuka is a little rich woman, so when she heard that it would cost money, she immediately asked about the price.
only…
"It depends."
"If you just find some well-known small anchors or UP hosts to promote, the price is not too expensive, about 500,000 to 1 million will be enough."
"But if you find those top online celebrities to promote, or buy advertisements 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 ACGN Danmaku, so he has some understanding of the publicity expenses on this kind of network.
The development of the Internet in this world is not inferior to the world before he traveled. The development of the Internet has also given birth to all walks of life. The various Internet celebrities that Lin En has seen before traveling are the same in this world.
Therefore, placing advertisements on major websites, or looking for 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, hearing what Lynn said, Shizuka Hiratsuka clicked her tongue.
Although she can be regarded as a little rich woman, when she heard that tens of millions of cherry dollars were just the beginning, she felt that she was just a poor person.
"I can't do this kind of publicity..."
It wasn't just Shizuka Hiratsuka who was frightened by this price.
When Xiazhiqiu Shiyu heard this number, she shook her head slightly.
Although the cut in half of the work made her feel depressed, she was not reconciled to failing like this.
But this price is really not acceptable to her.
Isn't it.
With the little money she earned from publishing, even if it was all paid for, it would not be enough for a fraction.
In this case, what choice does she have
"You can't do something like asking someone for help, you really have to give up."
"but!"
"The road of Internet promotion is correct, I think we can try it."
It should be said... is it Yukinoshita Yukino
Even though she knew it was difficult to do, she still insisted on continuing to do it.
"What are you going to do?"
Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's insistence, everyone turned their attention to her.
Especially Hiratsuka Shizuka, she asked with anticipation. After all, she is the daughter of the Yukinoshita family. With such excellent genes, she must be able to give better suggestions, right
However…
"I need to learn the strategy of network promotion from scratch and draw up a future promotion plan."
?
Co-author, you are planning to start from scratch!
But after you learn it, wouldn’t even the day lily be cold
