She subconsciously looked at the magazine that had been thrown on the ground, and it just turned to the page of "Seven Rooms", feeling an indescribable regret in her heart...

[36.Chapter 36 Be confident]

"How did Mr. Akihara come up with such a terrible story?"

After reading the article, Akemi Ikawa couldn't help covering her heart and muttering to herself.

Just two days ago, she received a call from Hiroto Akihara, telling her to buy this issue of "New Novel", saying that the story in this issue would be adapted into a stage play for them.

After she learned of this situation, she immediately went to the nearest bookstore and bought 15 copies, and brought them back to the drama department for everyone to read in turn to see if they were suitable.

Then everyone opened the book together and began to observe carefully.

After she finished reading it, the instructor and other club members also read it one after another, but everyone had a shocked expression on their faces.

No way, this story vividly writes the modus operandi of a perverted murderer, which makes it difficult for readers like them who have basically never been exposed to this type of article not to be surprised.

After a long time, a heroic girl with a ponytail murmured, "Can we really interpret such a story well?"

She was a little unconfident. After all, the stage plays she had been exposed to before were either emotional or inspirational. There were very few such thriller-themed genres. She was really worried.

Akemi Igawa glanced at her subconsciously, and realized that the person who said this was the president, who often acted as the "male lead" in stage plays, and even she was a little worried, so this kind of play is too difficult...

But she thought of "Seven Rooms" again, and she was very tangled in her heart for a moment. Do you really want to give up such a wonderful story?

But if you fail to interpret such a story well, will you feel sorry for Mr. Akihara?

It's really confusing...

She was so lost in thought there that her eyes were a little out of focus, and everyone sitting in the activity room was also whispering, and they couldn't decide to pay attention.

The story is very good and very attractive, and the effect of the performance should be very good, but after all, it is not the type of stage play they often perform.

The instructor sitting among a group of girls also frowned and was analyzing. She thought for a while, then turned to the page of "Seven Rooms", and began to read it carefully for the second time. I kept thinking about it.

In terms of the number of actors, the existing number of actors in the drama department is sufficient to meet the needs; in terms of the difficulty of the performance, it mainly highlights a sense of tension and urgency; in terms of actors, the "brother" can recruit a girl with a smaller stature to play.

As for the venue, music, lighting, and props, you can ask for help with other clubs under the coordination of the school. It should not be a big problem...

In other words, this stage play is completely achievable, and because of its unique genre, it is possible to catch fire!

She looked around and found that everyone was a little unconfident, and the atmosphere in the event room was even a little dignified, so she coughed lightly.

Seeing everyone's eyes turned, she raised her voice and said, "Everyone, please listen to me."

She's going to cheer on the fledglings of the drama department!

She stared at the heroic girl for a while, then raised her voice and said, "Lisa, raise your head and answer me, how old are you?"

"It's been almost four years since I was a freshman." The heroic girl named Lisa replied a little surprised, she didn't know why she asked this suddenly.

The instructor nodded, put down the magazine in his hand, and continued: "It's been four years, how many times have you acted in stage plays?"

"It is estimated that there should be a hundred games."

"That's right, since you've performed so many shows, what's different this time?"

"But I haven't touched the type this time." The voice of the heroic girl still didn't sound very confident.

The instructor glanced at her, looked around the crowd again, and continued to speak loudly: "What's the difference? Isn't the performance of a stage play to highlight the personality of the characters and convey the emotions you express to the audience?"

After a pause, she continued to say in a passionate tone: "Since we have so many successful experiences, let's forget about this time. If it doesn't work, just train a few more times, ten times if it doesn't work once, ten times No, just a hundred times!"

Speaking of this, she slowed down a bit, and said softly to the heroic girl: "Risa, believe in yourself, and believe in everyone present."

The heroic girl was startled, turned around and looked at the people on the field, and found the firm expressions on their faces, and couldn't help thinking.

Yes, if it doesn’t work, rehearse a few more times, and if it doesn’t work a few times, rehearse dozens of times, what’s so difficult about it! ?

And everyone seems eager to try it, so why should I hold back?

With her conviction confirmed, the confusion in her eyes gradually faded away.

Akemi Ikawa couldn't help being happy when she saw everyone's fighting spirit ignited.

Just wait, Mr. Akihara, we will definitely not disappoint your work, we will surprise you with the best stage play!

……

The activity room of the drama department was noisy, but the voice in Yuuto Akihara's house was very quiet. He put down the pen in his hand, leaned back on the back of the chair, and relaxed himself.

As of today, the script work has basically been completed, especially the character action and dialogue, which have been appropriately and reasonably expanded on the basis of the novel to ensure that the length of time can reach 90 minutes of general stage performances.

In addition, some voice-overs and actors' movements are also supplemented to facilitate the advancement of drama shooting.

In short, this work is over, and it will be fine to send the script to Akemi Ikawa using TA-QBIN later.

He stood up, stretched his stiff arms, walked back and forth on the spot, and thought about the next question.

If you want to win the Newcomer Award for Mystery Literature, should you use the existing neon works from the previous life, or use localized adaptations of foreign reasoning works?

He bit the tip of his pen and began to constantly calculate the pros and cons.

Competing for a mere newcomer award with the RB reasoning works of the previous life seems to be a bit of a sledgehammer. After all, the literary works that I can see across the ocean are all excellent.

In the future, if you can climb a little higher in the literary world, you can use these works to help yourself obtain higher benefits and benefits. Even if you compete for the Uemura Award, the highest award in the RB reasoning world, there is great hope.

Another important reason is that he really wants to use other foreign reasoning works in his mind.

Now my adaptation ability has also improved a lot, so I should also try localization adaptation, right?

He pondered for a long time but still couldn't come to a conclusion, so he simply let go of his random thoughts and prepared to read the book for a while to take notes, so he took out the paper and pen and began to write directly.

In the sound of friction between the tip of the pen and the paper, time passed slowly...

However, while he was writing furiously, someone brought him good news.

[37.Chapter 37 editor-in-chief's treat]

The next day, Asano Aiko called and brought Yuuto Akihara the first-day sales data of the third issue of "New Novel" this month - more than 5000 copies, which is higher than the previous second issue out a lot.

You must know that this is only the data of the first day!

According to this trend, it is not impossible for the third issue of "New Novel" to have a circulation of more than [-] copies.

Asano Aiko discussed with Akihara Yuto for a while over the phone, both of them were a little surprised by this phenomenon.

After all, generally speaking, it is not uncommon for a magazine to republish once or twice because of a certain book review.

But it would be a bit of a surprise to see a succession of better-selling and re-released titles.
