Chapter 230 Inspection

After leaving the game development department, it was almost dark.

It usually gets dark early in winter. Although Xiangjiang may not be as winter as it is said, there are no exceptions in the same longitude areas in January and February.

Today, Lei Yunrong has a good understanding of the situation of Honor Electronics Company, and it is generally very good.

Although the sales of the arcade released this time are not as good as before, it is also very good in horizontal comparison. Few companies' arcade sales can be compared with the two arcades of Honor Electronics.

At present, Honor Electronics' profit model is relatively simple, relying only on arcade products. If the arcade sales are not ideal, many of the company's plans will not be implemented.

Fortunately, the arcades released before still have a lot of orders every month. In addition, the sales of the two arcades, "Donkey Kong" and "Highway", make the profits are still acceptable.

Currently, Lei Yunrong and his subsidiary only have the 300 million US dollars loan they borrowed from Goldman Sachs when acquiring RCA's electrical appliance department, and there is no other debt.

As for the money owed by Ocean Milan Bank, HSBC will bear the money.

Lehman Brothers is currently actively lobbying the White House to allow authorities to release transactions from Ocean Milan Bank.

Such things cannot be accomplished overnight, so Lei Yunrong did not pay much attention to this matter and fully entrusts Lehman Brothers to operate it.

In fact, it was mainly because this matter had nothing to do with Lei Yunrong, so he was so ambitious that he let go completely. However, HSBC could not be so calm and arranged for people to follow up on this matter throughout the process, but he was just under Lei Yunrong's subordinate.

In addition, Lei Yunrong also asked Lehman Brothers to increase the shares of Ocean Milan Bank acquired to 51% according to the entrustment of HSBC.

Now Ocean Milan Bank is not a high-quality asset, but is in a quagmire, so Lei Yunrong's request was completed in less than a week. However, stock acquisition is easy, and the most difficult one is the Amerika authorities.

The rest of the things had nothing to do with Lei Yunrong. He could have kept his promise and did everything he promised Shen Bi.

Seeing that Lei Yunrong was so efficient, Shen Bi had also put a lot of effort into what Lei Yunrong had entrusted. According to his reply to Lei Yunrong, at most one month, the TVB station could belong to him Lei Yunrong.

When I got home, it happened to be dinner time. I had dinner with Lei Juehua and Li Yunyun. After washing up, Lei Yunrong went to rest.

Although I didn’t do much physical labor today, I thought about so many things at once and consumed a lot of my brain power, so I felt more sleepy when I was idle.

During this period, the only things you can spend your time at night are TV, there are no smartphones, no short videos to watch, and no mobile games to play.

Although there are many ways to entertain in later generations, Lei Yunrong found that his time seemed to have decreased. Even at night, people felt sleepy, but they still had to watch more short videos before going to bed after twelve o'clock. If they didn't watch more short videos, they would feel like they were losing money before the time passed twelve o'clock.

Although he now has the conditions to spend a lot of money in the bright lights and wine, the enjoyment of Lei Yunrong may not be blessed to be saved, so it is better to sleep with your wife in your arms.

The next morning, Lei Yunrong came to Hutchison Building to show off his presence, and then came to Kowloon Newspaper Company.

Pang Yidian, general manager of Kowloon News, has been waiting for a long time. He received a call from Lei Yunrong two days ago and would come here today, so he made full preparations for the big boss to come over to inspect.

By the way, Lei Yunrong hasn't come to Kowloon Newspaper for a long time. It's really hard to say that the sales volume has skyrocketed all of a sudden. It can only be based on time to slowly accumulate reputation and spread influence. Perhaps the only thing that makes him more concerned about is the situation of Kowloon Comics.

However, although Lei Yunrong did not always pay attention to the situation of Kowloon Newspaper, he could still understand that several newspapers under Kowloon Newspaper were getting better and better. From the increasing number of times these newspapers mentioned in Lei Yunrong's ears, one or two can be predicted.

"Good morning Lei Sheng!"

As soon as Lei Yunrong arrived at the door of Kowloon Newspaper Company, he saw Pang Yi Hall greeting him personally at the door.

"Old Pang, there is no need to be so grand. I am not an outsider, so why did I come to the door to greet you?"

"If it weren't for Lei Sheng, you said you didn't want to be arrogant, I would have wanted to call Xingzhi and the editors of the newspapers over here. Lei Sheng, you will be a rare visit to Kowloon Newspaper."

"Haha, it's because Lao Pang and you guys are excellent in their ability and have managed the company to flourish. I don't need to worry about it."

While chatting, the two walked towards the office of Pang Yi Palace. When the rest of the company saw Lei Yunrong, the long-famous boss, appearing, they couldn't help but keep looking at Lei Yunrong until Pang Yi Palace closed the door and couldn't see it.

"Lao Pang, I think there are a lot more people in the company."

Hearing Lei Yunrong's words, Pang Yidian said with a smile:

"Of course, our entire company is in an upward period and we will definitely need more and more talents. In fact, these people are not all. The people from Xinbao and Tiantian Daily are working in other places, and only the people from Xiangjiang Daily and the company headquarters are here."

"Since there are so many people, why not find another office building and rent a few more floors?"

"This is not very necessary. We are not like other companies. They will not have any impact on finding another place to work. Besides, I am still thinking about when Lei Sheng, you will build a special building for us, Kowloon News."

"I don't have money now. If I really want to build a building, I have to wait another year or two."

Pang Yidian, who was just talking about building a building, suddenly saw Lei Yunrong's words and said with a smile:

"We can wait for a year or two, as long as Lei Sheng doesn't forget this matter."

"Don't worry, I won't forget. The acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa has exhausted all the funds on my hands. When I recover, I will definitely build a building for Kowloon News Agency."

Lei Yunrong had such a plan, not only Kowloon News, but also his company Lei Yunrong planned to build a building. Anyway, he had so much land in his hands.

Pang Yidian was obviously very happy about this unexpected joy, and he laughed several wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. Although he did not have any shares in Kowloon News Agency, he regarded it as his lifelong career.

Lei Yunrong poached him to serve as general manager, fully complying with the promises agreed before, giving him enough autonomy and running a media company according to his own ideas.

It can be said that Kowloon Newspaper Company is where Pang Yidian’s dream is realized, and he has always hoped that the company will get better and better.

Now in Hong Kong, the strongest paper media company is Sing Tao News Group, which owns an office building more than 20 stories high in Kowloon. Ming Pao Group is also making efforts. Kim Yong bought a piece of land in Chai Wan, Hong Kong through his relationship and prepared to build Ming Pao Building.

Therefore, Pang Yidian also wants to make the Kowloon Newspaper's signature louder. After all, if it is stronger than its strength, Kowloon Newspaper's current strength is stronger than Ming Pao Group's, which is slightly inferior to Sing Tao Newspaper Group.

However, Pang Yidian also knows that Lei Yunrong has more companies, and most of them make money than Kowloon Newspapers. Even if they want to build a building, it may not be their turn.

But unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise. Lei Yunrong actually agreed to build a building for Kowloon Newspaper.

"Lei Sheng, you are just a generous boss like you, you don't blink a moment when you build a building."

"Lao Pang, don't praise me here. I also see that the company has developed well, but you still have to tell me what it is, so that I can tell you what it is."

Pang Yidian also knew that Lei Yunrong must have come here today to learn about the company's situation, so he was prepared before.

"Lei Sheng, thanks to your support, now all the sales volumes of our three newspapers in Xiangjiang are in the top ten."

"The "Xinbao" ranks ninth, but it has a huge influence in the economic field and is still on the rise. Now the "Xinbao" has become many preferred newspapers that pay attention to the Hong Kong economy. Not only that, the Hong Kong Finance Department is now inviting us to participate if we want to hold a press conference to announce some new measures."

"As for Tiantian Daily, it is the fastest increase in sales. At the end of last year, its sales officially surpassed Sing Tao Daily, becoming the third in Hong Kong."

"Tiantian Daily" is a comprehensive newspaper with only one kind of reporting content, that is, news that the general public likes to read, so report whatever hot topics there are in Xiangjiang.

Not only that, thanks to the boss Lei Yunrong, with the influence of Xinyi City Pictures in the industry, Tiantian Daily can get a lot of exclusive news about celebrity gossip.

In addition, the Jockey Club also gave Lei Yunrong face and often revealed some news to Tiantian Daily in advance that is irrelevant to the competition but those who are keen on buying horses are interested.

With these two basic markets, and with the recruitment of a large number of journalists, Tiantian Daily has always pursued hot news, so the sales of newspapers have been rising rapidly.

Historically, the sales of Tiantian Daily rose to the top three and 1984 of Xiangjiang, but now with Lei Yunrong's all-round support, this time has been five years ahead of schedule.

Lei Yunrong did not expect that Tiantian Daily's sales had increased so much. Xinbao also provided enough support and even provided more resources, but its sales seemed to have reached the ceiling and could not be increased.

Even not long ago, in the acquisition battle of Hutchison Whampoa, Lei Yunrong gave so many exclusive news to the Xinbao newspaper, and sales increased for a while, and then slowly fell back.

Perhaps such professional newspapers have a natural limit on their sales volume.

Therefore, the sales increase of Tiantian Daily still surprised Lei Yunrong. No wonder Oriental Daily was able to successfully top the sales champion in just a few years and won the championship for decades. Tiantian Daily is learning or imitating Oriental Daily.

"How many copies of "Tiantian Daily" are now sold?"

"At present, there are more than 90,000 copies every day. I believe that in less than half a year, it can become the third newspaper in Xiangjiang after Oriental Daily and Ming Pao to sell over 100,000 yuan."

"What is the sales volume of Oriental Daily and Ming Pao?"

"The daily sales of Oriental Daily are about 150,000 copies, while the daily sales of Mingbao are about 120,000 copies."

"It seems that the gap is a bit big."

"There is no way. Both newspapers have deeper backgrounds than us. Now ordinary Xiangjiang citizens want to learn some hot news and will read Oriental Daily. If you want to read novels, they are usually used to looking for Ming Pao, so we can only catch up silently now."

"Then what are the characteristics or memory points that our Tiantian Daily newspaper gives people?"

Pang Yi Palace smiled bitterly:

"At present, Tiantian Daily does not have any unique features. However, we have also discovered this problem. We are now summarizing and creating some of our characteristics."

"I think the celebrity news and movie information section is very good. With the backing of Xinyi City, news in this area can be easier to obtain."

"Okay Lei Sheng, I will make arrangements for them later."

"I just suggest that if you have already thought of a better sector, then follow yours. After all, I don't understand the situation. It is a taboo for laymen to guide their experts, and I hate such behavior myself."

"Laisheng, don't worry. In fact, when they discussed before, many people also favored celebrity information. Now that you have to say something, this matter should be settled sooner."

"Okay, you can just arrange it. What about the situation of Xiangjiang Daily?"

Speaking of Xiangjiang Daily, Pang Yidian laughed and said with a little complacent attitude:

"Lei Sheng, the reason why I have this confidence that Kowloon Newspaper's strength exceeds Mingpao Group is because of the existence of "Xiangjiang Daily".

"Xiangjiang Daily currently sells more than 70,000 copies in Xiangjiang every day, ranking sixth. Although the ranking is not very high, it is currently the most influential in Chinese newspapers in the field of political and economic news."

"We have established relationships at the same time, and we have permanent reporters in Beijing and Wanwan Taipei on the mainland. We have also jointly participated in the coverage of many major news. And because our reports are impartial, they are becoming more and more recognized."

"More importantly, Xiangjiang Daily is the only newspaper we went overseas. Through the channels of the Nanyang Business Daily, which we acquired, we sold newspapers to Southeast Asia. In Xiangjiang, there are only a few companies that can sell newspapers overseas."

Seeing Pang Yi Palace's somewhat proud expression, Lei Yunrong felt a little funny. He also knew that the Xiangjiang Daily was the newspaper he personally was the editor-in-chief, and it was indeed an indelible contribution to the rebirth of this newspaper in Pang Yi Palace.

"Why can Xiangjiang Daily go overseas and two copies cannot?"

"Lei Sheng, Xinbao and Tiantian Daily are both newspapers with relatively strong regional characteristics. When they arrive in Nanyang, the locals do not buy it. The Xiangjiang Daily is also different. We not only report the news about Xiangjiang, but also some news about the mainland, Wanwan and even Southeast Asia. Besides, these areas are closely linked, so only Xiangjiang Daily can enjoy the food in Southeast Asia."

"What's the sales of Xiangjiang Daily in Southeast Asia?"

"It's not as good as the local area, and the entire Southeast Asia region has only more than 10,000 copies, but I believe that as time accumulates, Hong Kong will slowly rise."

"I believe in your ability. Xiangjiang Daily is also the newspaper I attach the most importance to, so you can tell me any support you need, and strive to make Xiangjiang Daily a major newspaper in Asia as soon as possible."

"Lei Sheng has nothing to support for the time being, but don't worry, we will definitely achieve the goal of "Asian Newspaper".

"Okay, but Lao Pang, the main purpose of my visit today is to learn more about the situation of Kowloon Comics."
