It is not only a celebration, but also a discussion.
"Now that I have worked hard and invested a lot of effort, I have finally built more than 20 newspaper offices of various sizes, and they are blooming all over the country. But you should also know that if it is limited to this, it is not enough."
Pei Ji's expression gradually became serious.
The content of the celebration is exactly these twenty newspapers.
Originally, there were only one or two rooms at the beginning, but Wang Jing and others are now suspicious of their lives due to monsters like Li Er and Li Sheng, and they do everything in a sneaky way.
But after these two newspapers are started...
But no problems were encountered.
Li Er's people sealed up the newspapers in Chang'an, but did not deal with the local newspapers.
It is absolutely nonsense to say that the news is not smooth due to the long distance.
Who is Li Er? All the armies in the world obey him alone, and his letters are delivered very quickly.
Since it was information that Li Er felt was important, how could he not get it? There would always be local bureaucrats who would write a memorial to Li Er.
Therefore, Wang Jing and others naturally became more courageous and began to set up the second, third... newspaper office.
In the beginning, there were one or two newspaper offices, or even five, six, or more than ten newspaper offices. Wang Jing and others were very careful, and only after transferring the gold, silver, and silk in their hands to countless hands did they switch to white-glove hands to do things.
But after that, the situation was very strange, and nothing really happened.
Li Er seemed to have suddenly become desensitized to this matter and just ignored it. So Wang Jing and others were bolder. This time, the money only changed hands three times, and they opened a newspaper agency, and they were not so nervous about being caught.
What to do.
All in all, nearly twenty newspaper offices popped up overnight. It was like mushrooms after a rain.
But everything is not bamboo shoots after all, and something as cutting-edge as a newspaper cannot spring up overnight like real bamboo shoots after a rain.
So where did all this come from?... Anyone with a sincere mind doesn't need to have much intelligence. Just think about it and you'll find it a bit strange.
What's more, it's Li Er, and the people under Li Er's command...
But nothing happened in the end,
Therefore, the celebration part of today's drinking party has been completed. The twenty newspapers have made great achievements. If they continue to operate in the future, they will definitely cause serious damage to Li Er.
But in the next step, whether we should continue to expand or be careful first, this becomes a problem and does need to be discussed!
The problem is relatively obvious. Wang Jing and others are all old men after all, and they still have some IQ.
There is no need to talk about the problem at this point, the key is what to do.
After Pei Ji brought the topic here, the atmosphere fell into silence for a long time.
This situation does not seem to be dangerous. After all, more than 20 newspapers have been opened, but...if you think about it carefully, it seems a bit dangerous. If you say you are safe and sound, you are definitely lying to yourself.
Therefore, there were only two options, but the key point was that they both lacked reasons for the choice. Everyone pondered for a long time, but none of them could come up with any reliable explanation.
But at this time, it was Wang Jing who spoke.
"In my opinion, this matter cannot be expanded easily, nor can we miss the opportunity and let so many places to become celebrities go to the hands of the head of Guizhou. We must seize it with both hands, and we must be strong with both hands!"
Wang Jing's words directly quoted a "Li Er's famous saying" that began to circulate at some point.
The description was quite apt. Pei Ji, Cui Baihe, Li Tiancheng and others immediately understood that Wang Jing must have thought of some plan, and couldn't help but focus their attention.
"Brother Wang, what do you say? What should we do this time..."
"Actually, it's quite simple."
Wang Jing smiled slightly.
"First of all, since more than 20 newspapers have been opened so far...this result is of course due to Li Er's lack of care."
"No matter what Li Er's plan is, these newspapers are useful and cannot be abandoned. But since there is a thief like Li Er watching, we have to be careful. Why not give some of them to them first?"
Go big.”
"Make it bigger?"
“What does it mean to be bigger?”
Everyone looked at each other, but Pei Ji's eyes suddenly lit up.
He understood what Wang Jing meant.
What Wang Jing means is to promote some of these newspapers first...
This promotion is easy to understand and operate.
After all, in the final analysis, these newspapers are run by a group of people.
Even though the assets provided have been laundered over and over again and changed hands countless times, the actual control is over one’s own people, and it is still very simple to promote them.
Subsidies, lowering newspaper prices, and concentrating on higher-level articles are all ways to do this.
But the question is, what is the significance of doing this? The key is that the first two problems must be solved.
Everyone didn't understand Wang Jing's idea, but then Wang Jing also said it.
"...Since we have to be on guard against Li Er causing trouble, and we also need to control the clean flow of the country, we have to act slowly and secretly. We might as well increase investment in individual newspapers and build a big newspaper!"
At this stage, the newspapers run by the group of people with the five surnames and Qi Wang are all small local newspapers - of course, then again, there are no national newspapers now. Even the newspaper run by Chang Sun Chong, a boy from Chang'an, is known as
It is a cultural and educational newspaper, and it is only published and distributed within Chang'an.
And Wang Jing's idea can be said to be bold and innovative. After that...
Pei Ji, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe and others suddenly looked surprised.
Now everyone understood.
Pei Ji took a breath and said, "Brother Wang, do you mean to expand without expanding?"
"On the surface, there are still so many newspapers, but one or two of them have been enlarged. This does not seem weird, but it is really expanding!"
Pei Ji's mind was quick to understand. When he said this, Wang Jing suddenly nodded with a smile on his face.
"Yes, Brother Pei, that's exactly what it is!"
"If we want to compete with Li Er, we can't go straight to the tower, we must take detours. From a place where Li Er can't see, we cannibalize whales and pigs advance suddenly!"
Quietly increasing investment in some newspapers is equivalent to avoiding the scrutiny of countless eyes and avoiding risks!
If this small group of newspapers can successfully grow in size, it would be even better if they could reach the level of the Eastern Han Dynasty's Yuedan Review.
A monthly review would outshine countless newspapers!
It seems like...
Wang Jing’s idea, Te Niang’s, is indeed a brilliant idea!
When everyone understood the beauty of this strategy, they were all full of praise.
"Brother Wang is awesome!"
"This trick is to build the plank road openly and sneak into the warehouse secretly. It's perfect!"
"Brother Wang is so intelligent, comparable to Zhuge Liang in ancient times!"
"How could Li Er think that Brother Wang would take action here? Hahahaha!"
