Chapter 54: There is a Tiger in the Heart
Seeing that Wu Zhongqiu was still very sober, Shen Ning knew that the drinking tactics had failed, so he put down the wine in his hand and said with a smile: "Of course not, it is enough to invite you to drink from a roadside stall, and I invite you to come tonight to seek cooperation." ”
"Cooperation?" Wu Zhongqiu's spirit was shocked, and he said with interest: "Let's talk about it." In fact, his heart is far from being as calm as it seems, who has made him taste the taste of cooperation with Shen Ning, Southern Metropolis Daily only paid 500,000 yuan, and he got ten times the benefits that are difficult to get by paying ten times or dozens of times, which can be called his most proud investment.
"Well, cooperation, mutually beneficial cooperation. Shen Ning nodded and said with a smile: "I know that your newspaper group has its own publishing houses and channels, which means that you are taking the one-stop process of content, production, and distribution, I don't know, right?"
"Hmm~ That's true. Wu Zhongqiu nodded in a deep voice, this is not a secret, you can know it if you look carefully on the Internet, he looked at Shen Ning and waited for the following. "I have a batch of content that I would like to use through your group's production and distribution channels. Shen Ning's expression was calm and very direct.
Although his words were concise and to the point, Wu Zhongqiu still smelled something unusual in them, so he didn't show very boldness, but just smiled: "It's not that it can't be, occasionally we will also help third parties to distribute content, but it is generally a special soft advertisement for some activities of film and television audio, I don't know what you are, brother?"
Faced with Wu Zhongqiu's temptation, Shen Ning didn't care, and said: "Literary themes, I plan to serialize them in the newspaper. "Brother's masterpiece?"
"Yes, yes. "That's good, I can give you a special feature to serialize!" Seeing that Shen Ning was just this "request" Wu Zhongqiu suddenly became bold, and didn't even mention anything about the benefits, what a big deal!" That's better, just give me four editions. ”
"No problem four...... Four?" "yes, four editions. Seeing that Shen Ning still looked harmless to humans and animals, Wu Zhongqiu finally couldn't help jumping up from the sofa, and said in a lost voice: "A newspaper only has four pages, you want the content of the whole newspaper?!" Wu Zhongqiu couldn't help but lose his temper like this, you must know that in a large newspaper like Southern Metropolis Daily, the number of daily newspapers is only 12 in total, covering science and technology, sports, entertainment, economy and finance...... Dozens of related industry news, large and small.
Shen Ning dared to ask for one-twelfth of the daily content of the Southern Metropolis Daily in one article, isn't this a fun time to brush them!" Shen Ning's attitude was very resolute, and then he pulled Wu Zhongqiu to sit down with a smile, and said: "Brother calm down first, I know that this is not a trivial matter, so I will say that this is cooperation." ”
"Tell me how to work together for the time being. "If there is another person, Wu Zhongqiu would have gone long ago, that is, Shen Ning He can still stabilize his mentality, but he is already planning to refuse in his heart, because he knows very well how difficult it is for Shen Ning to convince himself, and it is impossible for Southern Metropolis Daily to take such a big risk. Unless Shen Ning has a great interest thrown out!" I don't know how many copies of your newspaper's market volume is every day?" Shen Ning asked a very strange question. Wu Zhongqiu didn't think about it and said, "2.6 million copies!"
"We signed a VAM agreement, limited to two months, under the premise of not violating the relevant laws and regulations, the content is completed by me alone, your newspaper only needs to mix these four pages with the daily magazine, during the period if your newspaper's circulation more than doubles, this double of the profit I want one-fifth, if not more than doubled, all losses will be borne by me. ”
Looking at Shen Ning with an indifferent face, Wu Zhongqiu felt that either this kid was sick or he was crazy! It would take them two years to increase the circulation by 30% with the strength of 1,000 or hundreds of people in the Southern Metropolis Daily, but Shen Ning threatened to double the circulation of the Southern Metropolis Daily within two months.
Shen Ning didn't care, but smiled: "It's roughly calculated, if not one thousand, but eight million, but the greater the risk, the greater the benefit, once I succeed, I will get several times more benefits, isn't it?" "Yes, it's just you...... Are you really that confident?" "Brother, look at me, do I look like an unreliable person, or do I look like I'm drunk?"
Wu Zhongqiu gritted his teeth and said: "I believe in you, but I don't dare to agree rashly because of the big matter, I can only say that I will give you a chance." "First of all, you have to submit the manuscript to us for review, at least the first four editions of the content, if your text really has such a magical power that can fascinate the reader, I believe that no one will not want to cooperate with you, and secondly, if no one cares about it, or if it causes the reader to be disgusted......"
"Seven editions a week at most, and if there is no improvement after seven editions, our deal must be terminated, which is good for both parties. Wu Zhong is worthy of being at the helm of the Southern Metropolis Daily, Wu Zhongqiu came up with a very safe way in a very short time, this request Shen Ning could not refuse, he just proposed cooperation, and now after Wu Zhongqiu's two requests, the risk of both parties has been minimized. "Okay, that's it!" Shen Ning stood with great joy and stretched out his hand holding the wine glass: "Thank you brother for your trust, this cup is for you!"
Looking at the large glass of liquor in front of him, Wu Zhongqiu's face suddenly became embarrassed, this glass of wine could not be refused, so he had to endure the discomfort of his stomach and drain the wine in the cup in one gulp, and then pointed at Shen Ning and smiled bitterly: "Okay, you Shen Ning, you will take revenge!" "Haha, I haven't felt sorry for you to drink my hundreds of oceans in one gulp!" Shen Ning laughed.
"Long pain is better than short pain, now you can come with me. Wu Zhongqiu also smiled. Shen Ning was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?" "Printing house, I'll look for everyone here to taste your works, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight." ”
"But it's so late. "Haha, you don't know this, the printing base of our newspaper works two shifts day and night, and it just so happens that the person I am looking for is in charge of the night shift, if he says yes, I will sign an agreement with you immediately!" Wu Zhongqiu obviously believed in the person in his mouth.
Shen Ning Zhenjin is not afraid of furnace refining, especially from Wu Zhongqiu's mouth, he felt that the person in his mouth should be very content, and he thought that it would be good to let a professional person taste it first, maybe the things in that world in his hometown would be unsuitable here. Thinking of this, he directly rang the doorbell of the service. Although Shen Ning and Wu Zhongqiu can make friends, although they have a cooperative friendship, it is also related to the vigorous and resolute work of the two. The two stood on the edge of the assembly line, Wu Zhongqiu asked with a smile: "This is where our printing publications are, what does Brother Shen think?" Shen Ning did not answer immediately, but looked around carefully, and then gave a thumbs up: "Although the sparrow is small and complete, it is better not to be bloated as a business, but the most rare thing is people, full of spirit, if it is not for the luck of your newspaper to always recruit hard-working employees, then the managers here are well managed." "Brother Shen's eyes are like torches, in a word. Wu Zhongqiu's expression was slightly proud: "The reason why the printing department can become the most concise and effective department of the group is inseparable from the wrist of Director Ye, and her ability to control the reader market is simply breathtaking. ”
"So god?" Shen Ning looked surprised. "I'm not exaggerating, she does have that talent. ", brother, didn't I say you, you actually put such a talent in this little sparrow?" Shen Ning couldn't help but feel angry for the editor-in-chief Ye who had never met, the control of the market in any industry is the most important link, which not only requires rich support as the foundation, but also requires far-sighted vision and unusual talent.
Isn't it a waste that such a rare talent is nested in the printing department at the most basic level! Wu Zhongqiu smiled bitterly: "I would like to drop her to the operation department, but the problem is that she herself refuses, let alone ......" "What's more?" "This involves her privacy, and it is inconvenient to disclose, but I am very sure of her ability, otherwise I will not have the right to return the content, right?" Wu Zhongqiu refuted himself, and suddenly he pointed behind Shen Ning and said with a smile: "No, the general manager of a major newspaper has fled."
"Accidentally making friends......" Shen Ning stretched out his middle finger at Wu Zhongqiu's back, and then he turned his head and said with a serious expression: "Miss Ye, I am a traditional and conservative man, if you want me to spend the night at your house, you have to tell me what your purpose is!" "I'll give you a guest room, and you lend me the rest of the manuscript to read, you can understand that this is a very simple deal." ”
I don't know if it's an illusion, Shen Ning felt that when Ye Qiuyan said this, the corners of his mouth seemed to be raised, this is a smile? He asked, "How do you know that I still have a copy left?"
"I've studied the process of your operation of the Five Academies Championship, it seems to be bold, but in essence, your heart is like a shampoo, behind every arrogant action there is absolute certainty as confidence, the novel of the three protagonists is hugely risky, you can't be willing to gamble on the market without finishing the manuscript. ”
"You're done, and the quality gives you a lot of confidence, and I, as a reader, just want to get through the story. ”
