Washington, D.C., on a corner not far from the White House, four blocks away, stands a 60-year-old building that looks like a latticework, the overall exterior wall is yellow-brown, and two flagpoles are placed above the main entrance of the building, and two flags are hung, one is the American flag, and the other is the District of Columbia flag during the Civil War, which is the headquarters of the Post Group.

The mood was noticeably different among the staff at the Post's headquarters today, with Vice President Catherine and a group of group management already waiting in the hall at about 9 o'clock for someone to arrive.

The front desk lady stood up straight, the smile on her face remained the same, and when she was wondering, she saw a Cadillac ruler-length SUV driving into the square in front of the door through the glass door, followed by a black Mercedes-Benz, followed by four SUVs.

"Here, let's go. Catherine said to Jon Meacham, the editor-in-chief of Newsweek, and led the way to the door.

"Bang Bang ... ”

After the sound of the car door closing and closing, the tall and handsome Andy greeted Catherine, who walked out of the building gate and down the steps, with a smile on his face, followed by a team of nearly twenty people behind him.

"Hello, Miss Catherine... ”

"Hello, Mr. Smith, please inside... ”

The two exchanged pleasantries, Andy nodded to Jon, and walked into the historic and famous newspaper group headquarters building with Catherine.

There was no arguing or noise in the conference room, only the sound of the staff of both sides constantly flipping through the documents, and the heads of both sides waited silently with smiles on their faces.

The preliminary negotiation work has already negotiated some conditions, and what they are doing now is only confirming the detailed rules and handing over some important documents, for the 115 million loan taken away by the Post Group, everyone tacitly did not explore, after all, the purchase price of 1 US dollar seems to be full of news, but on the other hand, it is also a shame for the Post Group.

Looking at the somewhat gloomy expressions of Donald Graham, chairman of the Post Group, and his sister Larry Weymouth, who sat in the middle, and Leonard Jr., the editor-in-chief of the Post, we can see that although the burden has been shaken off, at the same time, as the descendants of the Graham family have begun to sell important assets, the precedent has also been opened.

If they knew that the sale of Newsweek's assets was just the beginning for their family, I wonder how they would feel.

After taking Li Xiaoying's confirmed nod, Alvitatre quickly checked the document he had just received, and then handed it to Andy, "Boss, no problem!"

Andy didn't pick up the papers in Al's hand, and the face that was even more handsome than the younger Keanu showed a sunny smile, looked at Donald Graham across from him and said, "Mr. Graham, we can start." ”

Donald Graham reached for his glasses and nodded with mixed feelings.

Taking the contract from Andy's men, the tip of the Montblanc pen paused for a moment before finally sighing and signing his name.

Andy glanced at the other party with a deep gaze, and without hesitation, signed his name on the contract in triplicate.

"Thank you!"

"From this day forward, it's yours, young man!"

The corners of Andy's mouth turned up, and he and Donald Graham held hands tightly, and after releasing them, they exchanged contracts with each other, and Andy reached out behind him.

Today, the little assistant Tori Black, who was dressed in a pale pink slim OL suit, hurriedly went up and handed a brand-new one-dollar bill to the big devil, and her eyes were full of small stars when she looked at the big devil.

Donald Graham shook his head and smiled, and reluctantly took a dollar from Andy's hand, who had a very serious and upright attitude, turned to the people of the Post Group behind him, and raised the dollar in his hand, making everyone's faces look ugly and abnormal.

Everyone knows that Newsweek is losing money, and they know that it is a big burden, but they know that when they have it, they may get tired of cursing, but at this moment, when it no longer belongs to them, that feeling is extremely uncomfortable.

Andy didn't care what Donald Graham was thinking, if it weren't for the joint press conference with the Post Group, he would have slapped his ass and left.

In the honor showroom of the Post Group, Andy, under the introduction of Catherine, looked at the photos that made people sigh, many of the people in the photos were once famous people in the world.

The Post brought down a president, and for nearly four decades, Kay Graham dominated Washington's social circles, entertaining presidents and prime ministers in her Georgetown mansion and dining with kings and queens at the White House.

But glory only means the past, and Kay's legend will be unprecedented in Washington, because times are different.

Andy admires and respects all of Ms. Kay's successes and accomplishments, especially the power of a newspaper to toughen President Watergate, and ultimately win, which is simply unimaginable.

"Bang bang. ”

"Mr. Smith, Vice President, the venue is ready, the reporters from the various media outlets are in place, and the press conference can begin... ”

A staff member knocked on the door and walked in, reporting to Andy and Catherine.

Catherine nodded and smiled at Andy: "Let's go, the stage is set, just wait for you as the protagonist." ”

Andy smiled calmly, "It's a win-win!"

At the press conference, when the media in Washington received the notice, they were very curious, after all, as a leading media in Washington, it is a rare thing to not report on it and send out media invitations to the outside world.

However, their keen professional instincts told them that maybe there was really something big to break out, and it was the Washington Post, after all.

However, as the faces of the people who walked in from outside the door became clear, all the reporters were a little surprised.

Andy Smith, the youngest billionaire who owns the New York Observer, is this upstart in the publishing industry going to take a stake in the Post Group, or to buy it...

Wait, no kidding, it's The Washington Post!

All kinds of suspicions made the reporters instinctively excited, and they didn't make a loud noise, they all desperately took pictures, waiting for the unexpected news to break out.

"Thank you for coming, the main content of today's press conference is... Just an hour ago, we at the Post Group and Mr. Andy Smith entered into an agreement to buy Newsweek for a dollar plus all of its debts... Other words... ”

The audience was in an uproar, all the reporters in the press box were boiling, who cared about Catherine's words behind her slightly ugly face, everyone understood.

Oh my God! One dollar bought Newsweek, which is more than 70 years old? Not kidding? Today is not April Fool's Day, is it? Is the Washington Post crazy? Ms. Kay will be...

All kinds of ideas came to people's minds, and even when the scene became extremely chaotic, noisy, and noisy, Andy Smith always sat in the middle with a confident and calm smile, watching the excitement of the audience.

"Be quiet, everyone, and then give the time to Mr. Andy Smith... ”

Everyone focused on that handsome face, with complicated feelings, 22 years old, too young.

"Hello everyone, I'm Andy Smith! First of all, I would like to thank the Post Group for trusting me with the long-established Newsweek, and to be honest, at this moment, I am also very excited, after all, it is Newsweek, and I think every American knows its value very well。。。。。。

In its heyday, Newsweek was a central part of the American national dialogue, and its reporting was "highly controversial, liberal, and often half a step ahead of the mainstream of American public opinion."

All of you media friends who are here and all of you colleagues at Newsweek who I have not yet met should be aware that the print media has been challenged by the new era, and Newsweek has inevitably been affected.
