Chapter 287: Haruno was secretly photographed? "Then there is another person." Uemura Reina insisted: "There was another person who bought it during the seven or eight minutes we were there. Wouldn't there be even more people the rest of the time?" This time, Mine Shiori did not refute her, but nodded silently. Within one week of its release, "Norwegian Wood" topped the Kodansha's internal book sales rankings with extremely high sales that ordinary people could never imagine. Although outsiders are not aware of these data yet, for Shiori Mine who works inside Kodansha, these are all things that can be seen. In addition, she had observed secretly in the bookstore many times, which made her realize one thing more clearly. Sawayama Haruno's book is really popular. Although you haven't seen people holding this book on the street yet, Mine Shiori knows that there will definitely be many people who will buy it. Moreover, according to the relevant information collected by Kodansha on the Internet, the frequency of words related to "Norwegian Wood" and Misty Mountain and Winter Sea on the Internet is steadily increasing every day, especially after being promoted by seniors in the industry, the increase is even greater. Haruno, without realizing it, had gradually distanced himself from these people. After her excitement, Reina Kamimura seemed to realize this.
She glanced at the unopened books and said in confusion, "I wonder if I ask Zeshan-san for an autograph, will he refuse?" "Will not." Miyazawa Mana pursed her lips and whispered, "After all, we are all classmates, and he is not the kind of person who will ignore others after becoming a little famous." Why do I need to help explain myself? It's such a weird feeling. I clearly feel that I need to keep a distance from Haruno, but now I have to explain for him. But if I don't explain, I will feel even more uncomfortable. Just when she was feeling a little depressed, Reina Kamimura turned around and looked at Shiori Mine who was standing beside her. She certainly didn't have the courage to go to Sawayama Haruno alone to ask for an autograph. Although she was usually carefree, Sawayama Haruno was now a published author after all. For students like them who were still in college and had little experience in the world, they would definitely feel somewhat restrained. So she planned to bring Mine Shiori along, as she happened to have also bought Sawayama Haruno's book. So, Reina Kamimura invited Shiori Mine to form a team. "Shiori, how about we go find Sawayama-san together later!" "Hey, looking for Haruno" Mine Shiori accidentally let the cat out of the bag, but after noticing the slightly strange looks from the two people in front of her, she silently swallowed the title back. "I'm fine with either. Since that's what you said, let's go and ask." In fact, she already had an autographed copy of the book, but since Reina Uemura had brought it up to this point, it was difficult for her to refuse. What's more, I bought this book with my own money. In this case, it would be okay to ask Haruno for his autograph again, right? She has been very busy with work these days, so now she kind of wants to see Haruno. "Then it's settled." Seeing that Mine Shiori agreed, Kamimura Reina shook the book in her hand and cheered. However, what the three of them did not expect was that Sawayama Haruno would not come to school at all today. TBS broadcasting station headquarters in Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo.
Sawayama Haruno was sitting opposite Takayama Nami, and seemed to be quite troubled by the questions raised by the other party. "Um, Ms. Takayama." He reached out to interrupt the person who was about to take notes, and said helplessly: "When I was writing the book, I didn't actually think about so many complicated mental processes, so..." "Is that right?" Hearing this, Takayama Nami suddenly felt a headache. She was taking notes of the interview with Sawayama Haruno as agreed in the original deal, and was going to take them out next month after the other party's new book achieved higher performance. But she never expected that this interview would be so troublesome, because although Sawayama Haruno had achieved great results in the industry, his actual experience seemed a bit too monotonous if he were to retell it. You can't just write whatever you want based on your own imagination, right? It's okay to add some appropriate information, but you can't write the whole article like this. After thinking it over, Takayama Nami still didn't give up and said, "Then Mr. Kiriyama, can you explain in more detail some of your experiences when you participated in the competition in Kyoto?" "If the core focus is on your debut as a newcomer and the fact that you won the championship right after participating in the competition, then it would be better to explain some of your experiences in Kyoto clearly, so that others can have a better impression of you." She said tactfully. More sensations. Sawayama Haruno was in mixed feelings. He could understand what the other party meant, but the problem was that his experience in Kyoto was not easy to describe. Nami Takayama might have thought that he was very worried every day in Kyoto, and had no appetite; or she might have thought that he was full of confidence when he was in Kyoto, looking down on all the heroes in the world, and full of youthful spirit. But in reality, his time in Kyoto was a waste of time, except for the first two days when he was rushing to finish his manuscript. Well. While intoxicated in the gentle embrace of a woman, many things that are difficult to describe happened. After a little thought, Sawayama Haruno decided to make something up on his own to prevent Nami Takayama from having trouble handling the work when she came back. So for the next ten minutes or so, he described his entire mental journey according to his own imagination, trying to be as close to reality as possible and making his writing experience seem very tortuous. After finally waiting for the end, Sawayama Haruno took the bottle of mineral water handed to him and said helplessly: "Is this all right?" "Yes, thank you, Mr. Kiriyama." Takayama Nami looked at the record in her hand and said happily, "All we have to do is wait until next month, and the interview agency will help you expand your influence and publicity, and then I can take this record and hand it in." "You also know what's going on inside Kodansha." "After all, Riho and I are old classmates." Takayama Nami admitted it openly and said with a smile, "I still know these gossips. Such useful records should of course be kept until they can exert the greatest influence before releasing them." “Really professional” Sawayama Haruno smiled helplessly. He knew a little about the resources that were allocated to him within Kodansha, but he was not interested enough to ask questions about it. However, after listening to Morikawa Riho and Mine Shiori report on the first week's results, it seems that they are better than expected. Noticing that Sawayama Haruno seemed confused, Takayama Nami suddenly said, "Teacher Kiriyama, don't you know? In the past few days, the popularity of your book has increased significantly." "Ok?" Hearing this, Sawayama Haruno looked over in confusion. "It seems that people from the Cultural Bureau are willing to help." Nami Takayama said vaguely. Sawayama Haruno quickly understood what the other party was talking about. Was it the Ishizawa family who was fanning the flames behind the scenes? When he first participated in the competition in Kyoto, Morikawa Riho once told him how much power the Ishizawa family possessed.
The other party is a wealthy family in this field. What's more, Sawayama Haruno won the championship in a competition sponsored by themselves. It seems normal that they would help to increase the sales of the new book. After all, there may be the possibility of further cooperation in the future. What's more, the little princess of the Ishizawa family likes her books so much. I mean, that guy wouldn't take this opportunity to ask me for the extra version. Thinking back to what the other party had hinted at him, Sawayama Haruno suddenly felt a headache. "By the way, Mr. Kiriyama, wait a moment." Nami Takayama suddenly stood up and left the interview room for a short while. When she turned back, she had a briefcase in her hand. "This is for you." Takayama Nami handed it to Sawayama Haruno and said with a smile, "I have prepared the signatures and seals as agreed before. Teacher Kiriyama only needs to add his name or seal." "I'll take it to the school later. If the teacher says it's not possible, then let me know and I'll think of a solution," she added. This was what Sawayama Haruno asked her to do when they had dinner last time. A vacant position is posted inside the broadcasting station, which can be used to report to the teacher at school. This way, you can get high grades on the final assignment without wasting too much time. "It's troublesome." Sawayama Haruno took the file bag and thanked him. This thing is so important to him. Whether he can pass the exam this semester depends entirely on the things in this file bag. I didn't expect that I would become a great writer soon, but now I still have to worry about whether I would fail the final exam. Reality is too magical sometimes. Sawayama Haruno sighed in his heart. After chatting with Nami Takayama for more than ten minutes, Sawayama Haruno made an excuse to leave, and as the host, Nami Takayama naturally sent him out of the headquarters building. "Then I'll drop you off here. Thank you for your hard work today, Mr. Kiriyama." "No, I still have to thank Miss Gaoshan for the final project." Sawayama Haruno smiled at the other person politely, said a few more polite words, and then turned around and prepared to leave. However, just as he walked out of the broadcasting station's headquarters building, a strange faint white light was heard not far away. The light flashed by, but it seemed a little inexplicably abrupt. After being strengthened many times by the system, Zeshan Haruno naturally noticed the abnormality. When the white light appeared in his peripheral vision, he immediately looked in the direction of the other party. Saw nothing. But Sawayama Haruno had a vague and strange intuition. "A secret photo?" He was slightly stunned. It's really strange. Sawayama Haruno shook his head and soon stopped taking the matter to heart, and walked towards the station. He had other arrangements to make next.
