Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon
Chapter 24: "Xiangjiang Daily"
As Zhao Yazhi's scandal has intensified, it has almost reached the point where no one knows in Hong Kong.
At this time, the atmosphere in Hong Kong is not as conservative as the mainland and Taiwan, and it is relatively open.
The reason why the scandal between Zhao Yazhi and Huang Yuankun is so big is that in addition to the fame of the two themselves, the bigger reason is the voice of the parties and the fact that both of them are already married.
Extramarital affairs have risen to a moral level and are to be criticized by the population.
Had it not been for the recent shutdown of the "Shanghai Beach" crew, Li Zhiwen would often comfort Zhao Yazhi, perhaps Zhao Yazhi had collapsed.
Even this incident shocked Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua. Fang Yihua specially called Wang Tianlin to the office. When he returned home, Wang Tianlin's face was very ugly.
He specifically called Li Zhiwen home and said to him, "Awen, the broadcast of "Shanghai Beach" may be delayed."
"Because of my sister's scandal?" Li Zhiwen asked.
Wang Tianlin nodded.
Li Zhiwen smiled and said, “If Uncle Tianlin is worried about ratings because of his sister’s scandal, then don’t worry, there will be a reversal within half a month, and "Shanghai Beach" can also be played as scheduled."
Wang Tianlin was deeply skeptical of Li Zhiwen's words, but thinking about his relationship with the "Oriental Daily", he raised a little expectation.
Li Zhiwen saw that he didn't believe him, and said: "Well, Uncle Tianlin, let's make a bet, if the scandal of my sister can be dealt with in half a month, how about you doing me a favor?"
"What's your idea?" Wang Tianlin frowned and said.
"Uncle Tian Lin, you don't need to ask, just say whether to gamble or not," Li Zhiwen said.
"What are you busy?" Wang Tianlin was a little cautious, for fear that he could not do it.
"Uncle Tian Lin, it's not a big deal for you. I want to wait for the filming of "Shanghai Beach" to finish and rent the shooting props."
Wang Tianlin said in surprise: "You are really ready to make a movie by yourself."
Li Zhiwen said: "I want to try, in case I can succeed."
Wang Tianlin thought for a while and said: ""Shanghai Beach" will be finalized in one week. If it cannot be released, the station will suffer a lot. In this way, if you can ensure that "Shanghai Beach" will be broadcast normally, I will give up my old face. 50% of the rent will get you the shooting equipment."
Li Zhiwen said: "It's hard to chase a horse without a word." Li Zhiwen walked out the door, fearing that Wang Tianlin would regret it.
After coming out of Wang Tianlin's house, Li Zhiwen did not go home, but went to the "Xiangjiang Daily" newspaper office.
As early as when Li Zhiwen went to the Kowloon Stock Exchange to buy Hutchison Whampoa shares, he had already started analysis and screening, and finally found a newspaper office suitable for acquisition.
"Xiangjiang Daily"!
It is not that this newspaper has suffered a particularly serious loss, but that the head of this newspaper has plans to sell "Xiangjiang Daily".
"Xiang Kong Daily" was founded in 1932 by an Englishman named James Edward. It is the earliest Chinese-language business newspaper in Hong Kong. It was established 6 years earlier than the current "Sing Tao Daily". It was earlier than Mr. Jin Yong's "Ming Pao "" was established 27 years earlier, 37 years earlier than the current "Oriental Daily" contributed by Li Zhiwen. It has been 47 years since 1978 and has a long history.
"Xiangjiang Daily" also had a glorious time when RB invaded China. "Xiangjiang Daily" was the first to report the crime of **** and pillage by the Japanese army. At that time, the sales of "Xiangjiang Daily" reached a terrifying 200,000 copies. In 1940, it became the No. 1 newspaper in Hong Kong.
But the good times did not last long. The Japanese army captured Hong Kong in December 1941. James Edward seemed to have a natural sensitivity to danger. He abandoned the "Xiangjiang Daily" in August 1941 and fled back to the British mainland by his own ferry.
The Japanese army occupied Hong Kong and took the "Xiangjiang Daily" as its own mouthpiece. During that time, relying on the Japanese invasion and occupation of other areas, the "Xiangjiang Daily" owned its own printing plant.
When the Japanese troops evacuated from Hong Kong, "Hong Kong Daily" had become the largest newspaper and printing house in Hong Kong. Many Hong Kong newspapers were handed over to "Hong Kong Daily" for printing, and James Edward also hurriedly rushed in from the British mainland and received it. Assets of "Xiangjiang Daily".
It is possible that Hong Kong people hated RB because of the "Xiang Kong Daily" touted RB during the Japanese occupation. Even if he reported on the crimes of the Japanese army before, it was of no avail. And the old James Edward was unable to manage the "Xiangjiang Daily" and sold it to a Chinese named Lin Yongjia.
Lin Yongjia took over the "Xiangjiang Daily" and began to carry out large-scale reforms. He not only published an apology to the people of Hong Kong, but also reformed its layout. He added some fashionable elements. The sales of "Xiangjiang Daily" increased significantly. In 1955 It has become the top three newspapers in Hong Kong in 2009, and sales channels have been spread to all parts of Southeast Asia before Lin Yongjia's death. .
However, good people don’t live long, and they have left them for thousands of years. Lin Yongjia suddenly became ill and died in 1965, leaving the "Xiangjiang Daily" to his son Wanlong to inherit.
In just one year, the "Xiangjiang Daily" was sold by it and there were no important assets left, while the printing factory only bought 5 machines.
纨纨纨绔's son finally owed a large gambling debt, and had to sell the "Xiangjiang Daily".
The young man who took over was a young man who had returned to the United States. He had great expectations for "Hong Kong Daily". He imagined that "Hong Kong Island Daily" could rise in his hands. Then he became famous, achieved his goal, and successfully stepped into the upper class of society. , Expand his network and become the new tycoon in Hong Kong with "Xiangjiang Daily". So since he took over the "Xiangjiang Daily", he has not only purchased large-scale printing machines, but also handled Hong Kong's first fashion magazine.
But the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, but the stalls are too big, the sales of the newspapers have not recovered, and the magazines are rushed up, and in the end both are not fixed, plus the Ming Pao in the late 1960s. The impact of the rise of "Sing Tao Daily" and "Oriental Daily" on it, "Xiangjiang Daily" has been in a tepid state, and has been hovering at the tenth place. UU reading www.uukanshu.cóm
And Li Zhiwen also inquired that Zhou Liangzhi, the current owner of "Xiangjiang Daily", because the investment in the United States is in urgent need of money, and he has given up on the idea of "Xiangjiang Daily" coming back to life. Low, or if you don’t have the confidence to run the newspaper, it has never been sold.
Others do not have the confidence to run the "Xiangjiang Daily" well. It does not mean that Li Zhiwen has no confidence. With Li Zhiwen's rich novel resources, not to mention that "Xiangjiang Daily" can be ranked first, comparable to the three major newspapers such as Ming Pao, here. Some people may say that you have not promised "Oriental Daily" not to contribute to other newspapers for two years? Wouldn't it be possible to change a vest? Besides, with Li Zhiwen's poor writing style, he would not be able to write good novels without writing handwritten articles. Besides, there are so many novels in his memory, so just give two copies of "Oriental Daily".
Furthermore, the "Xiangjiang Daily" is valued. The printing house of the "Xiangjiang Daily" is worth buying the "Xiangjiang Daily".
Although the "Xiangjiang Daily" has declined, some of the channels laid before are still useful, which is very helpful for the fashion magazine planned by Li Zhiwen.
Furthermore, the acquisition of "Xiangjiang Daily" is more cost-effective than re-opening a newspaper. At least a lot of time will be saved. With Zhao Yazhi as the cover of the magazine, you can use Zhao Yazhi's scandal as a hot spot for publicity. Secondly, there is no need to dig people on a large scale, and the employees of "Heung Kong Daily" can use it. After all, it is still the top ten newspaper in Hong Kong, and employees can use it directly. There is also previous experience in running a magazine. Although not very successful, the experience of failure is also an experience.
Therefore, in Li Zhiwen's view, the acquisition of "Xiangjiang Daily" has many benefits, and it is a perfect investment.
Therefore, considering all aspects, Li Zhiwen must buy "Xiangjiang Daily".
