Jin Yong's work efficiency in the entrepreneurial era is not as slow as he speaks.
Within a few days after Zhou Wenqiang's investment was recorded, Ming Pao entered the market in a high-profile manner, three years ahead of history.
Ming Pao is so high-profile that it surprised Hong Kong newspapers. First of all, it breaks the industry rules, and the young reporters also enjoy a guaranteed salary of 50 yuan per month. When interviewing hot news, there are commissions and year-end bonuses. Secondly, relying on the connections established by Jin Yong for many years, he has absorbed a large number of heavyweight "big hands" and is in charge of various columns.
At this time, Jin Yong was not stingy and made a very generous move. He was simply a "scattered boy" in the paper media industry.
In addition to Jin Yong's editorial, Ming Pao has been at the starting line of first-tier newspapers since the beginning, and the first issue directly skipped the threshold of selling 5,000 copies per day.
Nowadays, Hong Kong Island's newspaper industry defaults to sell 5,000 copies per day, it will enter the front-line newspaper circle. If the daily sales can exceed 10,000 copies, it can basically enter the top five sales.
The first issue of "Ming Pao" entered the front line of sales, which made many tabloids who have worked hard for many years have thought that "living to a dog in these years". There are people who are envious, and many people who are even jealous.
Some newspapers even put pressure on newspapermen to join forces to force them not to sell Ming Pao. However, when they heard the information that Jin Yongruo intentionally or unintentionally revealed and learned that Zhou Wenqiang was also a shareholder of Ming Pao, they dispelled this idea one after another.
What a joke? When it comes to control over newspaper men, who can compare to Beiwang Company? Which newspaper stall in Hong Kong and Kowloon is not sold at Wanglaoji herbal tea and Weidong spicy strips?
I can't get along with the newspapers invested by Zhou Wenqiang. Do these newspaper guys still want to get through?
What's more, Zhou Wenqiang has a nickname called "King of Yan Zhou". Is that someone who is easy to mess with?
"Boss, I've found out clearly. Zhou Wenqiang is indeed a shareholder of Ming Pao. Although it's not clear who he or Cha Liangyong is the major shareholder, it's already a fact that Beiwang Company has entered the newspaper industry, so our plan..."
Xin'anyi's white paper fan solemnly said: "Do you still want to continue to implement it?"
"It's still a question. With Zhou Wenqiang's personality, how could the one with the surname Cha really control the Ming Pao? The major shareholder must be himself."
Xiang Qian smiled bitterly and said, "My brother Wen Qiang is very powerful. It seems that he has also seen the importance of the news media. He will never let go of this gun for public opinion."
"The plan is cancelled. If Zhou Wenqiang is not there, I have a hundred ways to make the surname 'shou' lose their shares. Now that he has the flag in Ming Pao, a fool will come. Zhou Wenqiang is the beast that protects food. Whoever dares to touch his territory will be the next one! "
When Zhou Wenqiang sighed at Ming Pao one by one? Zhou Wenqiang was on the rooftop of the Kowloon Hotel? He met a middle-aged man wearing glasses and gentle and gentle.
Liang Gen, Ip Man’s friend? Editor-in-chief of the Hong Kong Island Times.
After Xiang Qian bought a stake in the Hong Kong Island Times, he valued this person very much, calling him a rare talent in the Hong Kong Island newspaper industry.
Leung Gen has only been the editor-in-chief for about half a year? He has brought the Hong Kong Island Times from a second-tier newspaper to a top newspaper circle with his own abilities? Now the daily sales of newspapers are stable by about 10,000 copies. He is in a stalemate with the Ta Kung Pao and the Sing Tao Daily and has become one of the three giants in the Hong Kong Island newspaper industry.
"Mr. Liang, please have tea. I have heard from my senior brother that I have talked about you. After he came to Hong Kong Island, it all depends on your help? Otherwise, it would be difficult to gain a foothold. My junior brother expressed his gratitude on his behalf, using tea instead of wine, and toast you a glass."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled gently. If Liang Gen hadn't heard of the title of "Tiger of the New Territories" and "King of the King of Zhou", he would probably regard him as a high school student who had just graduated.
Seeing the legendary figure sitting in front of him? Liang Gen was also secretly surprised, but after all, he had seen the world? Although he was surprised, he could still keep the wind and clouds calm on the surface.
"Mr. Zhou is so polite? I didn't expect you to be Brother Ye's junior brother. That's all? They are all my own people."
Liang Gen smiled and drank tea? He became friends with Zhou Wenqiang without any trace: "Now, many newspapers in Hong Kong are thinking about getting in touch with Mr. Zhou? It would be better to have an exclusive interview. It seems that I want to 'get close to the water and get the moon first'?"
He is worthy of being the editor-in-chief of the Hong Kong Island Times. Liang Gen, a workaholic, is simply a three-word sentence that never leaves the industry.
Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "Haha, your Hong Kong Island Times is not the closest platform..."
Liang Gen shook his head and smiled, "Yes, since Mr. Zhou is a shareholder of Ming Pao, how could he support our competitor in turn?"
"But I would like to praise Mr. Zhou, it's so sharp that you can actually ask Mr. Cha to be a partner. Mr. Cha is worthy of being a veteran in the newspaper industry. His move shocked the Hong Kong and Kowloon newspaper industry. Judging from the current momentum, it may soon become our strong competitor."
Liang Gen actually didn't quite understand the purpose of Zhou Wenqiang's invitation to him today, and even some doubted whether Zhou Wenqiang was preparing to poach him to enrich the strength of Ming Pao?
However, this seems unlikely. Jin Yong is already there in Ming Pao. Although his ability is strong, he dare not say that he can surpass Jin Yong.
Zhou Wenqiang looked at him and said, "If I guessed correctly, it won't take long, Mr. Cha will try every means to increase the sales of Ming Pao. Although it is still impossible to be sure what methods he will use, if that day really comes, how will Editor-in-Chief Liang deal with it?"
ha?
Liang Gen was a little confused.
Are you mistaken? You are a shareholder of Ming Pao.
If Cha Liangyong had a way to increase sales, you should help keep it confidential, right? Now he came to remind me of this competitor, what is the reason?
After thinking for a long time, I still didn't have an answer. I tried to ask: "Zhou Sheng, I... don't quite understand what you mean?"
"I'm going to have an appointment with Editor-in-Chief Liang today to make a deal with you."
Zhou Wenqiang took out a stack of manuscripts from the briefcase next to him and handed them to Liang Gen: "Mr. Liang will take a look at this martial arts novel first."
"Martial arts novel?"
Liang Gen was even more stunned. Martial arts novels in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China were indeed popular. There was a time when newspapers were very happy to serialize such novels, but now they are overwhelmed, so he actually didn't have much interest in such novels.
What is popular now is romance novels, mandarin ducks and butterflies.
However, since the author asked Zhou Wenqiang to hand over the manuscript, he would give him some face no matter what, and he would still take a look at him.
Liang Gen never thought that the author was Zhou Wenqiang. He took it for granted that it was an author who left Zhou Wenqiang's relationship. He still secretly despised him. A young author who even relied on relationships in his handwriting actually wanted to publish a long martial arts novel in the Hong Kong Island Times. Isn't it too ignorant?
So after taking the manuscript, I just glanced at it casually. Sure enough, the title of the book is very old. What is the name of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", is it a novel with the hunter as the protagonist?
I was even more disappointed when I saw the author's pseudonym.
Heart of light and darkness?
