Shuichi Toyama's voice rose.

"This morning, many colleagues from Kyoto University came to me to ask about this matter. If there is no accident, there may be more related book reviews later."

After a pause, he said in a firm tone: "Qiuyuan, in the circle of traditional literature, you have already established your footing."

Hearing this sentence, Akihara Hiroto was even more surprised.

It's too exaggerated for me to stand firm with just one comment!

But after thinking about it carefully, he found that it was indeed possible.

The previous boycott of him by the traditional literary world was largely due to his "inappropriate" behavior of refusing the appreciation of Yuichiro Yoshikawa.

And the other party's acknowledgment now undoubtedly tells the traditional literary world that he doesn't mind this matter and recognizes his status as a writer.

In this case, some of Yoichikawa Yuichiro's original followers will surely follow him and recognize his own works.

Thinking of this, Akihara Hiroto cheered up.

In his original plan, he first used "Snow Country" to open up the situation, and then released several works to let the traditional literary world recognize him.

But I didn't expect that with only one release now, it would not achieve the same effect.

Either way, it's a good thing.

It seems that I will wait for a wave of related praise soon!

……

As Hiroto Akihara expected, many people in the traditional literary world were "shocked" after the relevant book reviews of the Todai Department and Yuichiro Yoshikawa's evaluation of him leaked out.

Prior to this, Yuichiro Yoshikawa's "big disciple" had publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Hiroto Akihara in the industry.

But I didn't expect Yuichiro Yoshikawa himself to speak highly of Hiroto Akihara.

All of a sudden, book reviewers from more publications began to pay attention to the work "Snow Country", and wrote related reviews one after another, most of which were mostly positive reviews.

After all, even Mr. Yoshikawa himself praised this work, and writing bad reviews is undoubtedly against the mainstream opinion.

In the weeks that followed, the number of related book reviews ushered in a surge.

Basically, 3 of every 2 periodicals related to traditional literature have written reviews of "Snow Country".

And this kind of public opinion situation also made it begin to affect larger social groups, and was reported by some small and medium-sized newspapers.

With the help of this wave of public opinion, the foundation under Akihara Hiroto, in conjunction with Anjiu Bookstore, carried out various plans and began to do more publicity.

And in the bookstores near the major schools, related promotions and gift activities have started.

Not only that, but even changed the slogan on the "girdle": "This is a masterpiece of new aestheticism recognized by the traditional literary world."

Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, there will not be too many people who stand up against it now.

With a series of measures, more and more people began to buy "Snow Country".

The book buyers include students from various literature departments, middle-aged and old readers, and some public and private cultural institutions.

This ushered in an explosive growth in the sales of "Snow Country"!

By the end of its first month of release, the first edition of 5 copies had sold out.

All cooperative bookstores not only returned all the money, but also paid the advance payment for the next batch in advance, requesting that they be shipped as soon as possible.

Even the two distributors, Toban and Nihon, who were not interested at first, called and each requested an additional order of 2 copies.

This makes the number of reprints reach as many as 10 copies!

Although the sales figures are decreasing day by day, even with conservative estimates, the reprinted books can be sold out within half a year!

By the standards of traditional literary works.

This figure can be regarded as a "big sale"!

After the sales data came out, Akihara Hiroto himself didn't care (after all, it was too far from reasoning), but the traditional literary world was "surprised" instead!

Now that traditional literature is declining, it has been many years since there has been a single book with such a high sales volume!

This means the revival of traditional literature!

In such a mood, some book reviewers' favor towards Hiroto Akihara skyrocketed, making him "higher".

After hearing these voices, Akihara Hiroto himself was very satisfied.

After all, the biggest purpose of his writing traditional literature is to improve his status and win awards internationally.

Before that, all his works were reasoning.

But reasoning is not very popular in the field of world literature, and it is more of a self-entertainment in Neon China.

Just like the Nobel Prize in Literature, reasoning is not included in the scope of the award at all.

In fact, the works that Neon can win awards are basically traditional literature.

In Akihara Hiroto's plan, as long as he can gain a foothold in traditional literature, it is only a matter of time before he wins the award.

As long as you can survive the time, you will be one step closer to that award sooner or later.

But just when he was full of joy, the crew of "Memories of Murder" made a phone call and told him unexpected news...

[Chapter 274.273 Enthusiastic citizens]

"Teacher Akihara, I am Takumi Utsumi, and I have something very serious to tell you!"

After answering the phone, Akihara Hiroto heard the anxious voice of the other party.

What's up?Hiroto Akihara is a little puzzled

Could it be that the filming funds for "Memories of Murder" are not enough and you need to invest more?

Or is there something wrong with the actors that affects the shooting?

He thought for a while and said, "Speak."

Utsumi took a deep breath.

"It's like this. Today I received a call from the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section 2, saying that the police station in Kanagawa reported that there was another murder case yesterday! The circumstances of the murder of the deceased are very similar to the serial murder case [-] years ago. !"

Hearing this news, Akihara Hiroto was stunned.
