Chapter 30: Grievances

As if expecting Xia Yu to be confused, Li Bin hurriedly explained: "Boss, you have just entered this industry, you may not know much about it, the grievances between "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily" have existed a long time ago, and they are still very deep, they fight in the newspaper from time to time, it can be said that the entire newspaper industry knows the grievances between "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily". ”

Hearing Li Bin's words, Xia Yu became interested, and he really had a bad impression of "Oriental Daily" for two reasons: first, because the treatment he received when he submitted articles to "Oriental Daily" made him feel a little unhappy; second, because the report of "Oriental Daily" a few days ago also made him unhappy with "Jiuding Daily" and his belittling and contempt.

In addition, the positioning of "Jiuding Daily" at the beginning conflicted with "Oriental Daily", and the overlap rate of users was relatively high.

If Jiuding Daily wants to become a world newspaper, it must first ascend to the throne of the No. 1 newspaper in Xiangjiang, and to achieve this goal, it is necessary to kick down the Oriental Daily, which is unavoidable!

If the new king wants to ascend the throne, the old king must abdicate!

The battle for the throne is never easy.

Therefore, there is naturally a contradiction between "Oriental Daily" and "Jiuding Daily", which is determined by the market situation, so Xia Yu regarded "Oriental Daily" as an enemy at the beginning of his decision to start a newspaper.

In the battle for careers, those who stand in the way are the enemies!

The positioning of "Sing Tao Daily", at present, has little conflict with "Jiuding Daily", and "Sing Tao Daily" is only the second, and the response to "Jiuding Daily" rushing to the first place in the future should be weaker.

Therefore, Xia Yu is very happy to see that there is a grudge between "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily".

It's just that, no matter what, "Jiuding Daily" will still have a certain impact on "Sing Tao Daily" after all, so what grievances can make "Sing Tao Daily" ignore the impact of "Jiuding Daily" on it?

"Li Bin, tell me what grievances there are between them. Xia Yu said to Li Bin with some curiosity in his heart.

"Okay, boss. ”

Then, Li Bin began to narrate, and after Li Bin finished speaking, Xia Yu understood that Xia Yu no longer felt heavy about the ridicule of "Sing Tao Daily", but felt light, if he was the boss of "Sing Tao Daily", he would have to go through until "Oriental Daily" collapsed.

This is not that Xia Yu is ruthless, but the grievances between "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily" are indeed very big.

This has to start from the beginning of "Oriental Daily".

"Oriental Daily" was founded in 1969, and it has only been 9 years now, but in just 9 years, it has rushed to the first place in Xiangjiang, if it is according to normal means, it is difficult to do, and the Ma family is not a good person.

In addition, the 60s in Xiangjiang were very dark, mixed with fish and dragons, and all kinds of conflicts and bloodshed occurred almost every day, and the people were living in dire straits, and the Hong Kong government was under tremendous pressure and had to take action to rectify it.

It was in this situation that in 1968, the prototype of "Inspector Lei Luo", that is, the chief Chinese inspector Lu Le, who crisscrossed the black and white roads of the Xiangjiang River, decided to 'retreat bravely from the rapids'.

Seeing that the Hong Kong government intended to rectify the order of the entire Xiangjiang, the Ma family, as one of the four black families in Xiangjiang at that time, realized the danger, and the Ma family urgently needed to build a set of armor for themselves to protect themselves.

After running the newspaper, the Ma family was still not at ease, and thought of the relationship in the east, so they took the initiative to lean east, and the position of the "Oriental Daily" became completely opposite to the mainland, and at the same time, the Ma family also wanted to use the newspaper to launder money and deliver news for the laundry detergent transaction.

In order to achieve these goals, "Oriental Daily" must quickly expand its sales before it can show its power.

But the Ma family has just started a newspaper, and they are also new to this industry, and they don't understand many things, so what should I do?

Of course, it's poaching!

At that time, "Sing Tao Daily", which was founded in 1938 and had the largest sales volume in Hong Kong in 1969, appeared in the sight of the Ma family.

Don't think about it, that's it!

Relying on their strong black strength, the Ma family was very ruthless, and directly poached almost half of the employees of "Sing Tao Daily", and many high-quality talents were poached, resulting in "Sing Tao Daily" once fell into chaos, the founder Hu Wenhu was seriously ill and hospitalized, and died soon after, Hu Wenhu's daughter Hu Xian had to hurriedly take over the family industry in grief.

Moreover, in the process of digging people, because of the black background of the Ma family, many people did not want to get too close to them, so it was not smooth for the Ma family to dig people at first, and they hit walls everywhere.

This annoyed the Ma family, who was already domineering, and they didn't bother to talk about the rules, so they directly threatened. Many people have to bow their heads and obey for the sake of their families and their own personal safety.

During this period of time, not only "Sing Tao Daily", but also other newspapers were poached, and even the "Hong Kong Island Daily", which was in decline at that time, was poached.

With the elites of the various newspapers, coupled with the prestige of the Ma family, and the fact that the Ma family may have lured them with heavy profits, the employees of the "Oriental Daily" had to work hard in the hope of achieving the Ma family's goal as soon as possible.

It is precisely because of these reasons that "Oriental Daily" has been able to develop so rapidly! In just nine years, it has become the No. 1 newspaper in Hong Kong!

Of course, because of the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption in 1974, the atmosphere in Hong Kong has cleared up a lot, and the Ma family has also converged a lot. Later, the Ma family was targeted by the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong government has intensified its suppression of the Ma family in recent years, so the "Oriental Daily" has become more and more low-key and regular, and does not dare to let the Hong Kong government catch the handle.

Otherwise, if it were changed to a few years ago, Xia Yu, an ordinary child from a fishing family, might really be abolished by the Ma family as a roadblocker.

However, Xia Yu is not afraid, because he knows from later generations that this year, the two leading figures of the Ma family will be wanted by the Hong Kong government and flee from Xiangjiang one after another.

Therefore, the Ma family and "Oriental Daily" will not be arrogant for long, and they will definitely keep their heads down during this time.

......

From this point of view, the grievances between "Sing Tao Daily" and "Oriental Daily" have become bigger, and the founders have both died indirectly because of "Oriental Daily", which can be said to be the revenge of killing their father.

As a daughter, Hu Xian's hatred for Majiahe's "Oriental Daily" can be felt by Xia Yu without guessing.

It's just that considering the black strength of the Ma family, Hu Xian, a strong woman, doesn't dare to talk about revenge, but she is holding her breath in her heart, so she always criticizes "Oriental Daily" in "Sing Tao Daily" to vent her anger.

Hu Xian is a woman again, and she indirectly harmed someone's father, can't people scold him?

The Ma family knew that they were at a loss, and it was not easy to see a woman in general, so they let "Sing Tao Daily" criticize them, and occasionally fought with "Sing Tao Daily", and the two sides had long been accustomed to it.

Even the entire Heung Kong newspaper industry is accustomed to it, and if the "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily" do not fight every once in a while, everyone else will find it strange.

In the final analysis, Hu Xian, the powerful queen of the Xiangjiang newspaper industry, is also quite pitiful, knowing who the enemy is, but there is no way to take revenge, this kind of grievance can be imagined.
