Chapter 27

41,000 copies, at first glance, I thought this was a very impressive number.

In fact... this is really an impressive number.

The first week sales exceeded 40,000, what does this mean? It means not only that the work "Four Lies" is a big hit, but more importantly, the work "Four Lies" is expected to exceed one million sales!

You have to know how many people there are in Japan? How many works with one million sales can be produced? This can be regarded as astonishing!

That's why the tone of the editor-in-chief Ayame is particularly excited!

Of course, it is impossible for a single volume to exceed one million. It depends on the sales of the next volume. A single volume breaking one million is even more amazing. "Four Lies" is just a light novel, and it has not yet come from the popularity of comics and animations, so the possibility of a single volume breaking one million is relatively small.

Of course, even so, Xia Qiu still embarked on the road to becoming a top light novel writer!

So... buddy is really awesome!

And it's far from that. In addition to the sales of Four Lies exceeding 40,000 in the first week, it also means that he can get 11% of the royalties in the next contract, which is the royalties that only top light novel writers can get.

Xia Qiu was a little proud for a while, and then calmed down. The sales volume was only 40,000, so he couldn't be too proud. He was still far from being able to lie flat.

Then Xia Qiu packed all the light novels of the second volume of Four Lies and sent them to Acorus. This was the manuscript he had finished writing this week. Then he began to decide which work to rewrite after finishing Four Lies.

The plot of Four Lies is very short. It only takes two volumes to write a light novel. After sending the manuscript to Acorus, he can decide what to write in the next volume of the light novel.

I have to say, this is a better volume than the real one! How can an author write the second volume just after the first volume is released! It's simply not a human being!

For ordinary light novel writers, it is normal to delay one volume for three or four months. Some of them will be caught by the editor and locked up in a small dark room until they finish writing the manuscript.

Well, it is mainly because of the different living environments. Xia Qiu wrote online novels in his previous life. Online novel writers can earn at least 6,000 words a day, not 10,000 a day, right?

This amount of updates must be guaranteed every day, which is equivalent to more than 100,000 words a month. So from this point of view, Chinese online novels are really more complicated!

In the editorial department of Dengeki Bunko.

Kagurazaka Ayame happily lay at her workstation, drinking tea and eating snacks.

The big sales of Four Lies also made the editor-in-chief praise her, and also gave Ayame this month's bonus, making this woman so happy that she can't find the north.

After all, she has such a capable author under her, and has the reputation of a genius high school student, which makes Ayame extremely happy.

Others in the editorial department are jealous and sighing at the same time, why didn't the email address that the lolita control teacher submitted the manuscript to was theirs?

Tsk! Acorus is so lucky! There are probably only two or three lolita teachers like him in the whole of Japan.

Ding Dong~

"What is this?"

The notification sound of the mailbox brought Acorus back to his senses.

Was it a newcomer who submitted the manuscript?

"I... F*ck!!!!"

Acorus's shouting immediately attracted the attention of other editors in the editorial department.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"There's no need to be so excited, right? Acorus? Don't you keep an eye on sales every day... F*ck!"

Several colleagues who came closer to take a look cursed when they saw the manuscript on Acorus' computer.

The manuscript that was mailed was none other than the second volume of Four Lies!

Oh my! What a volume!!!

"The second volume of the four lies of the lolita teacher? What the hell! Doesn't this guy need a break?"

"I suddenly realized that geniuses think completely differently from mortals like us. Geniuses don't have a bottleneck period, but the lolita teacher is really hard. It's only been on sale for a few days, and the second volume is already written?"

"Isn't it just to fill the number? Then just make a profit and run away?"

"It shouldn't be possible. Normal people won't kill the goose to get the eggs, let alone ruin their own reputation? I think the lolita teacher is too young, so she didn't settle down and wrote the second volume impatiently."

"Why say so much? Ask Acorus to publish the second volume for us to see?"

It's embarrassing to say that I envy Acorus for having an author like the lolita teacher under her.

But everyone also likes the four lies of the lolita teacher. Those who can enter the editorial department are all those who are very interested in light novels and have even submitted manuscripts in the past.

The outstanding work of Four Lies naturally won everyone's reputation, and the second part of Four Lies is just around the corner. It is unlikely that you don't want to read it.

Soon, Ayame put the manuscript in the editor group.

Afterwards, everyone returned to their posts in unison, waiting to read the second part of Four Lies.

Kagurazaka Ayame sighed slightly, hoping that Teacher Xia Qiu would not ruin her reputation, and then immersed herself in the novel.

Excellent writing, the plot of the second part is well connected.

Kagurazaka Ayame's old habit as an editor began, first commenting on the novel, and then reading the plot carefully.

Soon, Kagurazaka Ayame felt happy from the beginning, the mutual redemption of Arima Kousei and Miyazono Kaoru.

Just right~ the young love of a boy and a girl.

But then, Kagurazaka Ayame spent the most difficult hours.

The mood was like a roller coaster, soaring into the sky and falling quickly.

The whole person had a Sima face, and a pack of tissues at the workstation was used up.

The other editors were not much better, those with low tear ducts began to sob, and an aura of sadness lingered above the entire editorial office.

"Um, what's going on? It's time to get off work, aren't you going back? Do you like to work overtime so much?"

Coming out of his office, the editor-in-chief was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene. He had never seen such a quiet moment in the editorial department. What... happened?

Why do everyone act like a family member has died?

"Why is it a tragedy??"

Kagurazaka Iris had to admit that Teacher Xia Qiu did not ruin his signature, and it was obvious that his writing in the second volume was even better.

With impeccable writing, delicate characters, captivating writing style, and flawless plot control, this is simply a work that can be called a masterpiece.

But... why is it a tragedy! ! ! ! !

This second volume is even better written than the previous volume, and one has to admire Teacher Xia Qiu's genius.

But this tragedy is really hard to accept.

If the first volume of Four Lies is a work about finding sweets in sadness, then the next volume is about finding a few sweets from a pile of knives.

But often just a little bit of sugar makes it even more painful when someone eats it.
