486 [Low Fun Sun]
London International Airport, United Kingdom.
"Anna, Evan, we're here. ”
At the pick-up gate, Mrs. Michelle and Mary were desperately waving their arms, trying to attract Huo Yaowen and his party who came out of the crowd.
"Mother. ”
Anna heard someone shouting to herself, looked left and right, and finally saw her mother and Mary, who had not seen her for a long time, in the crowd that picked up the airport, and waved her arms happily with a smile on her face.
The mother and daughter reunited after a long absence, happily embraced each other and got together again.
Seeing this scene, Huo Yaowen silently stood behind the two of them with the child in his arms and smiled.
When she let go of her embrace, Mrs. Michelle looked at Huo Yaowen behind her, and saw her baby grandson and granddaughter sleeping in her father's arms, touched the little heads of the two children dotingly, and said, "It seems that they are tired from flying, and Alice and Arthur are tired and asleep." ”
Thinking of the situation on the plane, Anna smiled: "Alice and Arthur are tired of playing, don't you know, as soon as they got on the plane, they were so excited that they tossed for a long time before they quieted down." ”
"Then let's go back quickly. ”
Mrs. Michelle felt sorry for the two children, so she also hugged Xiaobao and beckoned Mary to carry her suitcase out of the airport.
More than an hour later.
Inside a luxury villa near the River Thames.
Huo Yaowen and Anna put the two children on the bed together, washed up, changed their clothes, and went downstairs to chat with Mrs. Michelle.
The mother and daughter, who have been reunited after a long absence, each told about the situation in the past six months.
"Really? That's funny. Haha......"
Mrs. Michelle heard from Anna that Xiaohu once wanted to poop in bed, and when she got up to look for her father, she couldn't help but pull it on her pants for a while, and she cried on the spot.
Huo Yaowen was at a loss for a while, and when he was about to help the child change his pants, he accidentally got a little bit on his hand, and he immediately let go of his hand in disgust, and as soon as he let go of his hand, Xiaohu sat on the ground with his buttocks, and the poop suddenly covered his little ass, and he cried even more.
Seeing that his mother-in-law laughed without an image, Huo Yaowen laughed twice in embarrassment. Normal people will be disgusted when they see, pee and fart, not to mention that they still have it on their hands, and it is normal for them not to pay attention to letting go of their hands for a while.
After laughing for a while, Mrs. Michelle endured her stomach ache and asked about her precious granddaughter: "What about Alice? ”
"Alice is the naughtiest, more naughty than her brother, all of which Evan is used to. ”
Anna was angry when she talked about this, and couldn't help but give Huo Yaowen a vicious look.
Xiaohu is naughty, it is a child's nature, but a large part of Xiaobao's naughtiness is spoiled by Huo Yaowen.
Xiaobao often doesn't go to bed on time, as soon as he makes a mistake, he runs to his father with a blank eye, every time he sees the child crying, Huo Yaowen picks her up softly and whispers a few words to forget it.
"I'm not used to it, Xiaobao isn't he still young......" Huo Yaowen touched his nose, and was just about to say a few words of defense, when he noticed Anna's eyes, he also shrank his neck, okay, compared to his son, he does dote on his daughter a little more.
Mrs. Michelle smiled: "Okay, okay, Xiaobao is indeed still young, weren't you very naughty when you were a child? Every time I want to teach you a lesson, your father defends you, and I don't know how many times I have quarreled with your father about this." ”
Hearing her mother mention her father, Anna felt a little sad, and was about to say something, only to hear Mrs. Michelle interrupt: "How long are you going to stay in England this time?"
"I don't know, I should stay at least half a month. Anna thought for a moment and said.
"Well, stay a little longer, and I'll see Alice and Arthur a lot. ”
As she spoke, Mary brought the prepared refreshments.
Mrs. Michelle said, "Have some refreshments and go back to your room to rest, you have been tired from the day's flight." ”
"Good. ”
Anna nodded, picked up a piece of refreshment, and ate it.
Although Huo Yaowen on the side had no appetite, he still politely picked up a cookie and chewed it slowly.
......
The weather in London is much worse than in Hong Kong, not only is the temperature difference between day and night large, but even the climate is unpredictable, one second it is still cloudless, and the next second it is cloudy and rainy.
But the rainstorm came and went quickly, and before long a small rainbow appeared in the sky.
"Mom, look there, it's so beautiful. Xiaobao pointed to the rainbow in the sky and said excitedly.
"It's a rainbow, and when it rains, there's a beautiful rainbow in the sky. ”
"What is a rainbow?" Xiaohu looked up at Anna curiously.
"The rainbow is an optical phenomenon after rain......"
Anna patiently explained to the two little ones what a rainbow is, but the two children were not interested in this kind of knowledge at all, and she smiled when she saw this: "You will know what a rainbow is when you go to school later." ”
"Click"
A slight sound of the door opening, Huo Yaowen changed into a new suit and walked out, and when he arrived in the living room, he noticed that Anna was squatting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with the two children and looking at the Thames River not far away.
Huo Yaowen cautiously walked behind Anna, sat down and put his arm around Anna's waist with one hand, and stopped the two children in his arms with the other.
Suddenly being touched on the waist, Anna's body stiffened, and when she looked back, she saw that it was Huo Yaowen, she couldn't help but smile, noticed that he had changed into a suit for going out, and asked curiously, "Are you going out later?"
Huo Yaowen said: "Well, I'm going to go to Huanyu Newspaper and Egypt Bookstore to see how it is doing. You know, Evans and Litt have been making a lot of phone calls in the past two days. ”
"Then you should come early. ”
"No hurry, I'll stay with you for a while. ”
"You'd better go early and come back early. ”
Anna leaned on Huo Yaowen's chest, raised her eyes to look at her lover's chin, and smiled: "I will accompany Xiaobao and them to the castle tomorrow to have a look." ”
"Good. ”
As he spoke, Huo Yaowen got up and let go of Xiaobao and Xiaohu, who had long wanted to break free, kissed Anna's cheek, and rubbed the heads of the two little guys, before turning around and going out.
Drive to Universal Newspapers.
......
Since acquiring the British newspaper "Sun" and the US "New York Post" in the middle of last year, Universal Press has gradually made a name for itself in the global newspaper industry.
Especially in the United Kingdom, the daily sales of "The Sun" have suddenly increased from 800,000 to 1.5 million, which is one of the best among the major British newspapers, except for a few long-established old newspapers such as "The Times", "The Guardian", and "Daily Mail", few newspapers sell so much.
Much of the credit for this goes to Evans.
Last year, he reformed the "Sun" newspaper and upgraded the content section of the famous "three-page girl" in the United Kingdom, turning the photos of famous models into the photos of ** that appeared every day, which immediately stimulated the sales of the newspaper.
Relying on these photos, in just one week, the number of copies has risen from 800,000 to more than 900,000.
Later, Evans relied on the "shocking body" he learned from Hong Kong's "Huazi Daily" and began to expand the sales of the Sun with various sensational headlines such as "shocked", "had to read" and "silent tears".
As soon as the two reform measures were implemented, the results were surprisingly good, and within half a year, the daily sales of the Sun Newspaper were stabilized at about 1.5 million copies, and not only the circulation was expanded, but even the advertising revenue was also expanded several times.
made the originally tepid "Sun" suddenly become a "well-known" newspaper in the whole of the UK!
This method of increasing the sales of the newspaper has attracted the criticism of many fellow defenders, and the media circles and some news media people have criticized the "Sun" for its crude and unprofessional methods of reporting news, and often uses sensational tricks to stimulate sales, and the target readers are basically people with limited academic qualifications and knowledge, and it satisfies people's low-level needs.
Originally, these media people and newspaper colleagues accused The Sun of exaggerating the facts or suspected of false news, which is understandable, after all, Evans did make a lot of suspected "real" news in order to stimulate newspaper sales.
But undeservedly, these people directed the signs from The Sun to the readers who bought the paper.
Reading the Sun is a person with low academic knowledge?
Reading the Sun is a low-level interesting person?
Then I really want to be a person with low education, low interest, and no culture!
This is the thinking of many readers, and this change of thinking has led to a rapid decline in the sales of some magazines and newspapers that criticize the Sun, and the sales of the Sun have been rising day by day, and yesterday it officially broke the daily sales of 1.6 million copies, causing a sensation in the entire newspaper industry.
......
After listening to Evans' account of the recent situation and the accusations received by The Sun last month, Huo Yaowen stubbornly said: "Evans, you really have a set!"
"Haha, it's all about you, chairman, but I heard the editor-in-chief of Huazi Daily say that this shock was the first to be used by you, chairman. ”
When Evans came to Hong Kong last year to integrate Hua Zi Daily and Hong Kong Observer, he noticed the shocking use of Hua Zi Daily.
At first, he was also disdainful of this kind of expansion of news headlines, but when he returned to the UK to start running The Sun, he tried it a little and found out that it was ......
Well!
It smells so good!
"No, I just wrote the title of the article by hand. Huo Yaowen hurriedly waved his hand, he didn't want others to scold him when they saw this title in the future!
Now people are interesting to read this title, because of the novelty, and when they get tired of it in the future, I am afraid they will be very disgusted.
However, since its inception, The Sun has been a low-grade newspaper in its own right!
In 1964, Hyred founded The Sun, which was founded because the Daily Herald, a well-known yellow newspaper in the United Kingdom, was acquired by others, and in order to continue to make money, the Sun was established.
It's just that the "Sun" did not sell well in the early days, so it was resold to the British media tycoon Murdo, and the newspaper also turned into a tabloid newspaper, publishing a lot of popular content, but it still did not improve.
In the end, the Mayduo tycoon gritted his teeth and decided to continue the previous setting of the Sun, launching the famous "three-page girl", in the third section of the newspaper, updating different model photos every day, most of which are relatively exposed photos, and asked someone to write a lot of Uncle Huang's content, and the sales gradually climbed to 800,000 copies.
Therefore, after Huo Yaowen acquired it, Evans, as the general manager of the company and the editor-in-chief, did not make drastic reforms to this newspaper, but only removed the content of the emperor's uncle, changed the third edition of the girl to **, and changed the title of the column "Art World" in the name of it!
