At 7 o'clock in the evening, Chiyoda Ward, Akihara Yuu's house.

Hiroto Akihara didn't know that the Mantan Club was preparing to make some arrangements for him. He had just finished dinner and was sitting at his desk thinking about the next promotion plan.

Watching the flow of people coming and going in the night outside the window, he took out the pen and paper in the drawer and began to scribble on the paper.

Looking at it now, the most important purpose is to further promote "The Devotion of Suspect X", but because of the lack of publicity channels, it can only rely on readers' word-of-mouth and posters in cooperative bookstores, and the promotion is relatively slow.

As for the drainage on the Internet, it is not expected to accumulate for several weeks, and it is unlikely to bring a large number of readers.

After all, as far as I know, the reasoning forum I posted on has only more than 5 netizens.And my own post, when I read it before, it sank a lot.

But wait a few more weeks for serialization, the situation will be much better.After all, the longer the story, the more engaging the reader.

Akihara Yuto put down his pen, then stood up and took two steps, continuing to ponder.

Having said that, it would be great if there were two book reviews published by book reviewers.

At the beginning, "New Novel" was able to sell from less than 3 copies to more than 20 copies, and it was inseparable from the help of many book reviewers behind it.

But the current situation is different from before. Anjiu Bookstore is just a small publishing house, and the weekly sales volume of "Suspect X" is only 4000 copies.

Under such conditions, if you want to get the attention of book reviewers, you don't know that you have to wait until the year of the monkey.

That being the case, should you take the initiative to contact me, or send two books over?

But if this is done, will it not conform to the rules of the neon literary world?

After all, there is another name for book reviewers, called literary critics, and they have a different standpoint from the author himself.

Hiroto Akihara thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to entrust President Yasuhiro to see if there is any channel for this.

The experience in Mandanshe let him know that he can never sit still, at least he has to try first.

And from the experience of previous life, the book "The Devotion of Suspect X" is favored by readers and book critics, and has even won many awards.

So if the book reviewers can read this book smoothly, they should be able to convince them!

Hiroto Akihara shook hands and made up his mind to talk to President Yasuhiro about this matter when he finds the right time.

After thinking for a long time, he felt that he was a little thirsty, so he went downstairs to go to the kitchen to get a glass of water to drink.

As he passed the hallway, the phone rang.

Hearing the ringtone, Akihara Yuto walked two steps quickly, and then picked up the microphone: "Hello, I'm Akihara Yuto, may I ask who you are?"

"Ms. Akihara, it's me, Maki Satake." A clear female voice came from the microphone.

Akihara Yuto was a little puzzled, but he still asked, "Editor Satake, what's the matter?"

Satake Maki heard Akihara Yuto's words and was a little shy for a while, but continued: "Mr. Akihara, are you free in the next two weeks? We want to plan a signing tour."

"A signing tour?" Hiroto Akihara was a little surprised, but soon became interested, "Please tell me in detail."

Satake Maki spoke into the microphone and began to explain.

Hiroto Akihara also learned a lot from what she said.

In order to further increase sales, Anjiu Bookstore decided to cooperate with several bookstores that sell better, and hold several small signings, and use this to promote the sales of "Suspect X".

Although it remains to be verified how much sales can be increased, the effect of promotion is still certain.

Hiroto Akihara hesitated for a while, and asked another question: "Didn't you make a lot of autographed bookmarks before?"

"Mr. Akihara, it's like this. Because President Anjiu communicated with the bookstore later, he thought that if there were too many signed bookmarks, it might cause the signature to depreciate, so I kept it as a spare."

Because he was worried that Yuuto Akihara felt that he had worked hard for nothing, Maki Satake added another sentence.

"When the hardcover is released later, I will use this batch of bookmarks."

Hiroto Akihara nodded, and asked again: "Then how should we promote the signing event?"

This is not the previous life, and the promotional channels are still limited.If it is not done well, there may not be many readers on the day of the signing.

In that case, he would be a little embarrassed.

Maki Satake replied: "In terms of publicity, we are now arranging to put up promotional posters in various cooperative bookstores, and we have found people to distribute leaflets on the street. However, for the newspaper layout, there may not be much budget. Please forgive me, Mr. Akihara."

"It's okay, I understand." Akihara Yuto still knew the specific situation of Anjiu Bookstore, so he asked another question: "When is the first signing event?"

"I'll let you know when we finish the layout here. From the current point of view, it should be next week."

"Understood, thanks for your hard work."

Akihara Yuto and Satake Maki chatted a few more words, and then took the initiative to end the call.

He put down the microphone, and thought about another question, his handwriting looks like a dog crawling, should he practice it again?

Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing during the signing.

Forget it, practice hard this week.

……

When Hiroto Akihara was practicing handwriting, Anjiu Bookstore began to continuously improve the publicity plan and related work in order to plan the signing tour, and did a good job of connecting with the bookstore.

At this stage, "Suspect X" ushered in a new week of release, and "Death of a Mystery Novelist" also started its third series...

[113.1 Chapter Thirteen Propaganda Posters]

The third part of "The Death of a Mystery Novelist" is about the process of detectives starting to investigate a case.

Detectives asked a number of questions after discovering that the nurse had a habit of throwing up when she told lies.

The female nurse was worried that she would be exposed, so she strictly adhered to a method taught to her by the mystery novelist before, that is, "you only need to tell part of the truth, and avoid talking about the key part."

After some questioning, the detective ended the conversation, just as the paramedic breathed a sigh of relief.The detective made another request, for the nurse to be his investigative assistant.

The female nurse was full of apprehension, but in order to avoid suspicion, she agreed.

In the process of following the detective to investigate the case, the female nurse dealt with many clues that she had not concealed before—including the surveillance records of the gate and the footprints in the mud.

But she was still very scared. According to this progress, it was only a matter of time before the detective discovered the truth.

Are you really going to jail?

A few days later, the lawyer entrusted by the mystery novelist came to his home to announce his will. He declared that the mystery novelist bequeathed all his wealth to the female nurse.

Hearing this, the family of the mystery novelist was surprised. Some scolded the lawyer for farting, some yelled that the mystery novelist had no capacity for action, and some said that the female nurse had seduced the mystery novelist.
