Last week’s new voice, we mentioned that the publisher of the illusion of the winter house, the city, saw the actual sales of the writer Tsuharahara’s book, and caused the publishing industry to be angry
Although I deleted my tweets after the city and publicly apologized, this figure greatly encouraged the supporters of Honda. They whispered coldly after the predecessors, and believed that Tsugaru Taishui was a well-sold, well-selling Hundred, and he would repeatedly attack him and the Japanese National
津原’s agent, Kazuyuki Sakai, looked at the comments under Tsuwara’s tweets and saw that many people are saying that Tsuhara is “selling badly” (although other books in Tsuwara are selling well). So ask him to “get acquainted”. This surprised Sakai: There are so many people who want to please the rich, the world, and the interests of the world
Sakai himself will also advise the responsible writers: such a plan is easier to get through the publishing house, or it can be sold well. This is because after the bestseller, it is easier to produce the next work. However, whether it can be sold well cannot be an indicator of works and writers. It is even more foolish for the author to “get acquainted with” the clouds. Only the world of the works of those who “recognize” would look like, and she would not even want to imagine
Sakai even wants to say to all the authors who are responsible for him: “Please don’t know what to look for. I will help you.” In fact, she is a bit dull and sometimes even wants the author to know her
In addition, some people say that Jinyuan is engaged in “the Shang Commercial Law.” Sakai retorted that people like “I don’t know each other” can’t play this set. And in the end, it is impossible for literary and artistic works to be successful in commercial law. This is very clear to publishers and authors

Writer 坂上秋成 admitted that Tsuyoshi Taisui only sold 1000 copies of “Music can’t give us anything” published by Magic Winter House. This figure cannot bring commercial benefits to the publishing house. Since the company is not engaged in charity, it can’t ignore this
However, a work can sell 1,000 copies, which is very amazing. There are 1000 people who read a novel, which is a very honorable thing
(Note: Actually, “Nothing can be given to us by music” is not a novel. Here we respect the original text.).
I hope you can imagine that a work that is conveyed to 1000 people is like a message to all students in a high school. It has brought so many people to the touch and can bring so many people to touch, which is very commendable
Writers create works that impress the reader’s heart and pray that it can be conveyed to the reader. 1000 people read a novel, more or less changed the view of the world. If you don’t think this is wonderful, then what does literature exist for? What else do people want to create?
Actual sales 1000 This may not be a number that a company can rejoice. However, if a publishing house only follows the digital publishing bestseller, then don’t you mix the literature? Isn’t it okay to engage in more efficient economic activities? But obviously, why are there so many publishing houses, so many editors, and literature?
Because there is pride in literature, there is a prayer. Creating and delivering wonderful works, which have different logics from capitalism and want to find hope and ethics in life. Literary works will be woven and tied to people, which is based on this premise. If there is a paragraph that can connect with 1000 people, this is a very wonderful thing
I don’t think writers can think about numbers at all. However, those who will specifically choose the strange and inefficient work of the writer must, in large part, want to express something that cannot be directly returned by numbers, and use this as their dignity. I believe these people love them in a form other than numbers

The writer and writer, Chuan Sheng said that the publisher, as a for-profit enterprise, has to sell books that cannot be sold. One of the reasons, of course, is that a book cannot be judged before it can be sold; but at the same time, There are also editors and authors who want to let it come out even if they don’t sell well, and the economic background of big publishers
Huichuan believes that the world needs more than a million bestsellers. Even if you can only sell 1,000 books, there are people who need it. But if you only have such a book, you can’t live anymore, so the bestseller is also essential. This is a matter of course
“The things that can’t be sold have no value! The best-selling thing is justice!” This argument is popular in the Internet age. Huichuan feels that this is also a kind of value that should be respected and protected. Then, if the world is all the same thing as the best-selling works, and listen to all the opinions of the customers, is this okay?
Of course, Huichuan also knows that there are people who think that “there are no such problems”, so there is no need to specifically reply to him

Press Hefang Shufang Xinshe said that the work of our publishing house is to authorize and write to the authors of outstanding works as far as they can. Even if one day, publishers, editors, and even writers no longer exist, only works can still transcend national borders and times. They gamble on meager hopes and want to present excellent literary and art books for everyone in the future
