Just as Midea was preparing for its new recruitment, Xu Zhi ushered in an uninvited guest.

Lin Wenzhou looked around the factory where the workers were in full swing, and said to Xu Zhi beside him: "I never dreamed that Xu Sheng would leave the film industry and open a factory." ”

Xu Zhi smiled: "I want to make another movie, I don't know if Zou Wenhuai shouldn't be able to tolerate me!"

Lin Wenzhou nodded and said: "Yes, Xu Sheng may know about the blocking order, but in fact, Zou Wenhuai also secretly contacted some people on the road and told them that you have tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars on you, and Xu Sheng should understand the thoughts in this."

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Thank you for reminding me, but in fact, I have been prepared for a long time, you see over there, he is Ah Bin, a special soldier, and now he is close to protect me, and my parents and family have actually hired bodyguards to protect them secretly, we are generally in Central or Kowloon, and the security force is not bad, unless these people want to come hard, otherwise there is no chance." ”

Xu Zhi attaches great importance to safety, and more than a dozen retired special forces have been recruited and arranged to be with him and his family. Although these people have strong fighting ability, they can't find any good jobs in Xiangjiang because of language inconvenience, and many of them can only go to the dock to work as drivers or factories as coolies.

Xu Zhi's personal bodyguard A Bin is not only experienced, the most important thing is that he can drive, and he has been accustomed to the driving mode of Xiangjiang, before, he drove a truck at the dock for more than 6 years, closely protecting Xu Zhi, and can also be a part-time driver.

Ah Bin was not far away, and when he heard Xu Zhi and the others talking about him, he nodded at Lin Wenzhou.

Xu Zhi asked, "Did you come to me today for something?"

Lin Wenzhou sighed and said embarrassedly: "Xu Sheng, I came to take refuge with you today?"

"You have resigned from Jiahe Daily?" Xu Zhi asked curiously.

Lin Wenzhou nodded and said: "Yes, since you fell out with Jiahe, your equity was recovered by Jiahe, Zou Wenhuai merged all the printing and transportation departments in one go, and also sent a few emperors to manage the company, I can't do it at all." ”

Xu Zhi asked, "So you resigned?"

Lin Wenzhou shook his head and said: "No, I am old and young, how can I learn from young people like naked, although life is not easy, but the income is still okay." Just a few days ago, the Golden Harvest lawyer gave me a severance pay and asked me to leave directly!"

Xu Zhi smiled: "Jiahe actually played so hard, is it because you have a relationship with me that you don't let go?"

Lin Wenzhou shook his head with a wry smile, even if it was true, he didn't dare to say it directly, after all, he had a request from others.

Xu Zhi said again: "Your ability lies in the newspaper, but I am a factory here? I can give you a job if you want it, but for you, it is a waste to not be able to give full play to your ability." ”

Lin Wenzhou nodded and said: "So I just hope that Xu Sheng will also develop his own newspaper like Jiahe Daily." ”

"Open another newspaper?" Xu Zhi almost didn't laugh, he didn't know how many newspapers he had tossed since he crossed over.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wenzhou actually came over again to set up a newspaper by himself. After thinking about it, Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "I don't have the idea of starting a newspaper on my own for the time being. ”

Lin Wenzhou asked, "Why?"

"Because I don't want to write novels anymore, if there is no such thing as my novels, and if you don't say that there is a leading newspaper like Baobao, can you run a newspaper to the current achievements of Jiahe Daily?"

Lin Wenzhou was silent for a while, and said: "I'm afraid this is difficult, and it requires a lot of investment and time. ”

Xu Zhi smiled: "Yes, but I have a new idea, just refer to it with you, what do you think of the idea of free newspapers?"

Lin Wenzhou was puzzled: "Free newspapers?

Xu Zhidao: "Yes, the newspaper itself is all free, and then rely on advertising to obtain income, what do you think is feasible?"

Lin Wenzhou thought for a while and said: "This kind of idea is groundbreaking, but it is estimated that it will not work, although many big newspapers are selling newspapers at a loss, but in fact, the loss is not much, the purpose of selling newspapers at a low price is actually to open the market and obtain higher advertising revenue, there is actually a big balance in this, too low advertising will not recover the cost, if we are free, it is impossible to get a balance by advertising revenue alone,

What's more, Jiahe's newspaper has attracted a lot of forces, if we come up with such a move, I'm afraid the war will never stop!"

"You've thought it through. Xu Zhi was very satisfied with this answer, Lin Wenzhou just thought about it a little and thought so much.

In the original history, the first free newspaper appeared in Sweden in 1995, and then slowly spread to several European countries, then appeared in Singapore in 00, and then spread to Hong Kong.

The reason why free newspapers were born is because of the emergence of accurate resources such as videos, portals, and search engines on the Internet in later generations, and on the other hand, the traditional advertising model cannot compare with the accuracy of big data push.

But there is another important reason, with the development of industrial technology, the cost of newspaper printing has also dropped sharply, and it is still the end of the 70s, and playing free newspapers will only lose blood.

Lin Wenzhou said: "There is another question, how can we sell free newspapers, if we give them to the newsstand, since it is free, we can't let us put the money out! And you can't prevent other people's newsstands from selling them at a low price." And if we go to the subway or the mall to deliver it for free, is there no way to tell who really needs the newspaper and who just takes it and runs to sell waste paper?"

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Yes, these are all problems, let's not consider the cost problem first, you have to come up with a way to solve these problems:

First, what is our customer positioning, and who are our customers?

Second, how to prevent people from maliciously disrupting the receipt of free newspapers.

Thirdly, how do we sell our newspaper?"

Lin Wenzhou nodded and asked, "Okay, I'll think about it, then what Xu Sheng means is that we are going to run this free newspaper?"

Xu Zhi shook his head: "Not for the time being, even if these problems are solved, the most important thing is that there are many consortia and politicians behind many newspapers, if we come to this move, it is very likely to ruin their foundation, this is a great hatred, we will definitely not be able to afford a counterattack at that time, you first think clearly about all the details that can be considered, go to do an investigation secretly, and come up with a solution first if you can estimate how much, only when we are strong, can we play this king bomb." ”

Lin Wenzhou nodded: "Okay, I have an idea, we can pick up some flyers and distribute them for free at the subway station, and see how many people will come over to collect waste paper." ”

Xu Zhi shook his head and smiled: "Not necessarily, the weight of the leaflet is far less than that of the newspaper, and the leaflet is not available every day, so there is no comparable value." And even if you find out that people have received it many times, how can you refuse, and what if there is a disturbance when the time comes? If I am from another newspaper and send someone to come and get the free newspaper, it is still a different person every day, what can you do?"

Lin Wenzhou nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed very troublesome,"

"There are bound to be a lot of problems, so you can go to work in our office building first! Take care of some simple things for our electronics company, and then think about how to solve them." ”

Lin Wenzhou nodded and agreed: "Okay, this is indeed very challenging. ”
