On the other side, after Shiina Mahiru returned home, she looked at the three new books in her hand.
After a moment of hesitation, Shiina Mahiru decided to read "your lie in april" first; book titles with such artistic conception always attract girls more.
Opening the cover and starting to read, Shiina Mahiru quickly became immersed in the story of "your lie in april".
The genius pianist Kousei Arima, who gave up piano because of a childhood trauma that prevented him from hearing the sound of the piano... Kaori Miyazono, the optimistic, cheerful, and energetic violinist who appeared in April... Tsubaki Sawabe, the lively girl with light brown short hair, who loves baseball and often causes trouble... Every character in the book deeply attracted her.
Shiina Mahiru had a premonition that this light novel would be very popular even among female readers.
Thinking of this, Shiina Mahiru hoped that Mochizuki would not have so many female readers.
...
On the other hand, with the "rouge en rouge" publishing house announcing the publication plan for "Sun in the Campus", the light novel market also set off a storm.
Because no other publishing house had ever made such a move.
Alas, how are these small publishing houses supposed to survive!
The move by the "rouge en rouge" publishing house can be said to be unprecedented.
The other publishing houses began to watch the show, wanting to know how the leading light novel company, Undead River Publishing, would respond.
However, there was no movement from Undead River Publishing.
Because, Teacher Wangyue had not yet submitted the manuscript, and Undead River Publishing did not dare to make any promises at all.
And this also made the supporters of "the Sun in the Campus" even more rampant.
On the light novel forum, the trend of public opinion has gradually shifted towards "the Sun in the Campus".
Of course, some people refuted that Teacher Wangyue had already published three volumes of "Re:Zero" and one volume of "four lies" in less than two months.
This speed is already the fastest in the history of the industry.
However, the other readers did not buy it, saying that if you have the ability, let your Teacher Wangyue finish "four lies" within a week!
Therefore, many fans of "four lies" could not swallow this.
On the forum, they all @Mochizuki, @Undead River Publishing, expressing their demand for the rapid publication of "four lies".
However, Mochizuki did not know any of this.
Because he had already started working hard to create the middle and lower volumes of "four lies".
If everything goes smoothly, he is confident that he can complete these two volumes by tomorrow night.
One keyboard, one night, one work.
...
At midnight that night, the two publishing houses announced the first day's sales of their new works.
Perhaps it was thanks to the rapid publication plan of "the Sun in the Campus".
On the first day, the sales of "the Sun in the Campus" led.
"the Sun in the Campus" sold 81,000 copies.
"your lie in april" sold 77,000 copies.
The sales of both books were very good.
Although the gap was not particularly large, it was undoubtedly the rouge publishing house that was leading.
If Undead River Publishing does not come up with corresponding countermeasures, this gap will continue to widen over time.
...
Tokyo, downtown, the upper floors of a skyscraper.
A woman wearing a black fitted short skirt was lying on a leather chair with her legs crossed.
The woman looked to be in her thirties, and her skin was well-maintained.
This person was Akane Hongsaka.
She is the daughter of a wealthy family, and this "rouge en rouge" publishing house is something she opened for fun.
However, it should not be underestimated because of this, as it has been able to gain a foothold in a big place like Tokyo.
She is also Machida Sonoko's college classmate.
Her slender fingers held a small wine glass, and she slowly raised the glass to her red lips.
However, the most eye-catching thing was her long burgundy hair.
After taking a sip of wine, Akane Hongsaka raised her head and looked out the glass window.
Her deep gaze penetrated the glass of the skyscraper and shot into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
However, from the corners of her mouth that were curved up, it could be seen that she was in a good mood.
"It seems you lost, Sonoko..."
