The author of the depressing comic book series makes the heroine cry.

When Xia Qiu returned home, Changpu called him.

"Teacher Xia Qiu! Your Name will be released in two days, so... forget it, I don't want to attend the book signing event, the autographed version~"

"Don't try to trick me this time. I won't sign hundreds of new books even if you kill me. You can just pick a few and let me sign them. Nothing else will work!"

Xia Qiu said solemnly. He vaguely remembered the last time he went to Dengeki Bunko to sign books. He thought that Cricket would be able to get hundreds of books quickly. Who could have thought that this was the beginning of a nightmare?

Xia Qiu almost became autistic, but fortunately he finished it. But from then on, Xia Qiu decided that the so-called signing to surprise readers was bullshit. Aren’t the surprises he gave enough!!!

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this. Regarding Your Name, I know that Mr. Xia Qiu will definitely not be too worried about the sales issue, but Kyoto Animation's producer Kiba wanted me to tell you about the animation production of this light novel. Can I..."

Although Ayame didn't say it explicitly, Xia Qiu knew what she meant. It was probably that after Kyoto Animation finished producing "Your Lie in April", they were wondering if they could make a seamless connection and take on Xia Qiu's "Your Name" again.

Xia Qiu was also very surprised about this. A light novel that hasn't been released yet and whose sales volume is unknown is actually considering the animation adaptation rights for this light novel?

Xia Qiu felt a little bit like living in Bengbu for a while. I didn't know whether I should admire the intuition of the wood factory supervisor or praise his courage?

But~

"Forget it, please tell Producer Kiba for me. I have other ideas for this light novel."

Yes, Kyoto Animation is not Xia Qiu’s first consideration. As for the adaptation rights of "Your Name", they naturally have to be "returned to their rightful owner", so Xia Qiu’s target is naturally the director Makoto Shinkai.

It might be better for him to shoot and direct this work himself, and as of 22 years, this animated film has earned nearly billion yen at the box office!

Moreover, a single volume of a novel can sell over a million copies, which is truly terrifying!

Therefore, Xia Qiu feels that such works might be better produced by himself. It is not that he disagrees with Kyoto Animation's strength, but that there are better options.

"Is that so? Okay, I get it. Teacher Xia Qiu should have your own considerations. I won't be your lobbyist. Okay, I will help Teacher Xia Qiu keep an eye on the sales tomorrow! Remember to treat me, the poor editor who is still working overtime, to a meal after the product sells well."

After saying this jokingly, the editor-in-chief Changpu hung up the phone.

Will the work sell well?

It’s guaranteed!

After all, this is Teacher Xia Qiu’s work, how could it not be popular?

Kagurazaka Ayame thought silently in her heart, but speaking of it, Teacher Xia Qiu is really a genius. Such a genius is unexpectedly rare~ But she is undoubtedly lucky.

Okay~ the time for self-reflection is over, it’s time to get back to the intense work!

So, Kagurazaka Ayame continued to keep an eye on the situation in the sales department to ensure that when the products were sold out, there would be timely supply to guarantee the supply, and she would not be like last time, when there was no supply after the products were sold out.

As a result, their editorial department had to answer phone calls from bookstore owners, who kept asking them where the books were.

Just thinking about it is a very scary scene.

I felt a little emotional as the tiny seedling I was responsible for had unknowingly grown into a towering tree.

The next day, Monday, Xia Qiu stuffed the light novel he was responsible for bringing to Shiyu into his schoolbag and prepared to go to school. Speaking of which, the school trip would be this Friday, right?

The three-day and two-night school trip is worth looking forward to in summer and autumn.

After all, I have seen many such scenes when watching Japanese comics before. I would always envy them when I was in high school, because I didn’t have to go to evening self-study and do papers.

Alas, the situations are different and cannot be confused.

There is nothing to complain about, after all, the situations on both sides are different.

However, now that I have the opportunity, I must experience the legendary school trip, especially to Okinawa, to enjoy the sea and hot springs.

I met Eriri on the road whom I hadn’t seen for a long time. It felt like I hadn’t seen this girl for a while. So what has Eriri been busy with these days?

"Teacher Kashiwagi Eri~"

"Who! I'm not! I don't have that name! I don't know any teacher Kashiwagi Eri!"

After rejecting the fifth consecutive challenge, Ying Lili looked back nervously and found that it was the bad guy Xia Qiu, who was looking at her with a smile on his face.

Being teased!

Ying Lili immediately became angry and gritted her teeth. This guy with a bad taste is still so sinister!

"What are you doing! What if someone finds out my identity?"

"Don't worry, there aren't many people on this road. Besides, I called you several times from behind you just now, but you ignored me."

Xia Qiu waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be too scared. He had walked this route to school many times and rarely saw students from Sobu High School, let alone classmates.

"Humph!!!"

Eriri snorted proudly, and accepted this explanation reluctantly.

"By the way, you haven't been online for a while. What's wrong? Is there anything?"

Speaking of Xia Qiu, I'm quite curious. In the past, Eriri would often come online to ask me when I would give her the new manuscript. She couldn't wait and was ready to draw a new comic.

It is obvious that after trying comics like "Transformation", Eriri also wanted to draw new and better comics.

After all, Eriri has read a lot of reviews on the Internet. It’s not just about the graphics being good but the plot being a mess!

What kind of cooperation is good? Teacher Kashiwagi Eri is the rival of teacher Gaero!

There are also a small number of readers who have started to support the CP of Xia Qiu and Eriri. By the way, Eriri has also appeared in doujinshi.

Naturally, many readers know Eriri, but the black-framed glasses and green sportswear she wore back then are like two different people compared to her youthful and beautiful appearance now.

Normally no one would recognize it.

When talking about this, Eriri's face turned distressed.

"I have to rush to finish my manuscript recently, and... I promised my readers that I would draw the last book and then bid farewell to the book industry completely, so I don't have much time to go online recently."

Oh~ Xia Qiu understands, there is a beginning and an end. No wonder this guy is in a listless state when walking on the road. He must have stayed up late last night. No wonder~

Xia Qiu immediately understood.
