Chapter 201: The Newspaper Boom
Looking at Lin Fa, who didn't seem to be relieved in front of him, the white-haired old man said with a smile, he said this to countless people today. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Thank you so much, uncle. Do the math of how much I have in my hand, I bought them all, and by the way, I'll get me ten copies of this Apple Daily. Seeing that the vehicle was almost coming, Lin Fa said with a smile at the white-haired old man.
He wants to go to the car to have a good taste of Mo Xuan's "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", and by the way, he is familiar with the wonderful life of those famous cultural people in Xiangjiang, as for why he wants to buy ten copies of "Apple Daily", it is out of support for his idol.
"Hehe, a total of 18 Hong Kong dollars, as for the "Apple Daily", you can only take one copy, I can't give you ten copies. After hearing Lin Fa's words, the white-haired old man's face burst into laughter.
The reason why he talked so much to the "young man" in front of him was not just to let him buy a few small newspapers with Ni Zhen's reports by the way, otherwise where would he have so much energy.
"Hehe, uncle, it's the first time I've seen someone like you, there is business coming to the door, but you still don't do it. As soon as the white-haired old man's words landed, Lin Fa said in surprise that the business was still turned away.
"You don't know about this. This Apple Daily is a free newspaper and everyone can only pick up one copy per day. ”
"It's free!Haha, uncle, don't be joking, how can there be a free lunch in the world, and the person who runs a free newspaper, what is he trying to do, isn't this a loss-making business? Hearing the white-haired old man's words, Lin Fa was stunned at first, and then said with a smile.
Xiangjiang is a capitalist society, how can there be such a good person, will be willing to run a newspaper for free regardless of the cost, in Lin Fa's opinion, this is completely fantastical, even if the IQ is low, it is impossible to do such a loss-making deal.
"Hehe, you kid, how would I know. If you want to ask, just ask Mo Xuanbei. Smiling helplessly, the white-haired old man said to Lin Fa in front of him.
"Mo Xuan, is this the newspaper he founded?" As soon as the white-haired old man's words landed, Lin Fa asked with a look of surprise.
He originally thought that his idol was just serializing novels in this unknown "Apple Daily", but he didn't expect that this so-called "Apple Daily" was actually founded by him, and it was actually free, which....
"Yes, this newspaper is indeed owned by him, I heard that one million copies are distributed free of charge every day, and even at the gates of the major subway stations in Xiangjiang, there are special people distributing "Apple Daily"
Having lived in Xiangjiang for most of his life, it was the first time for the white-haired old man to see such a "selfless" person as Mo Xuan. If he knew the buzzwords of the Internet in later generations, he would definitely say "I don't understand the world of rich people"

Creating a magazine, running a newspaper, and publishing a book -- such serious things can be summed up by the people of Hong Kong with a single advertising slogan -- "justdoit," because really everyone can do it.
The procedure for running a magazine in Hong Kong is very simple. The minimum registered capital of magazines and newspapers is only HK$10,000, and there is no need for capital verification. After registering the company and preparing the information as required, you can apply for a publication number.
From applying for a serial number to reviewing the content to publishing and listing, you basically only need to pay the fee step by step, and you don't have to worry about encountering obstacles at all. Except for publications with pornographic content, which need to be marked as not allowed to be purchased under the age of 18, Hong Kong's restrictions on magazines are that there are no restrictions.
There is no concept of approval or disapproval for applying for issue number and book number, which is as simple as applying for an ID card at the age of 16. Regardless of the cost, anyone can run their own newspaper, but of course, whether it can continue to operate is a matter for the founder's own personal consideration.
It is precisely because it is so simple and easy to create a newspaper in Xiangjiang that when Mo Xuan decided to create his own newspaper and enter the newspaper industry in Xiangjiang, in a short period of time, through the power of money, "Apple Daily" appeared on the daily stage of the people of Xiangjiang.
For the people of Hong Kong who are good at accepting new things, "Apple Daily" was quickly accepted by the people in Hong Kong who were already in the habit of reading newspapers as soon as it was released.
Within a little more than an hour of its release, its circulation surpassed the peak sales of Ming Pao. Over time, its circulation continued to increase.
And this is also caused by several reasons.
Of course, the biggest reason is that it is free to distribute and does not cost money. As the saying goes, don't take it for nothing, don't give money by yourself anyway, so why not do it for your own pastime and use it to pass the time.
The second reason is, of course, because of the eye-catching content on it, one is because of the "gay gate" incident of Ni Zhen, a young genius in Xiangjiang, which attracted the attention of countless people in Xiangjiang.
After all, everyone has a hunting mentality, and news like this is usually rare, watching celebrities make a fool of themselves, which is something that the people who eat melons are very happy to, especially if there is the truth, it makes people want to find out.
And the remaining reason, of course, is because of the serialization of Mo Xuan's "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". You must know that today's Mo Xuan has also produced a celebrity effect in Xiangjiang.
In Xiangjiang, there are many people who are loyal fans of Mo Xuan's novel "Looking for Qin", and many are fans of movies produced by Zongheng Pictures.

Ni House.
Looking at the Ni Mansion that was close at hand, Lin Zhixin sighed softly, then took a few newspapers and walked in the direction of the Ni Mansion.
"Buckle button..." knocked lightly on the door with his hand, and then Lin Zhixin stood at the door and waited quietly. Looking at the gate of Ni's Mansion, Lin Zhixin's mind was full of thoughts.
After a while, the door of Ni's Mansion was gently opened, looking at the person with the same surname standing at the door, Mother Lin said to Lin Zhixin with a worried look on her face: "Mr. Lin, you are here, you should hurry up and persuade the master." ”
"Okay, you can take me in. After hearing Mother Lin's words, Lin Zhixin nodded, and then said with a slightly complicated expression.
Subsequently, Mother Lin led Lin Zhixin into Ni's mansion and came to the door of the study where Ni Frame was.
"Knock knock..." Lin Zhixin knocked lightly on the door of the study.
"Come in. It was quiet in the study, and after a while, the voice of Ni Frame came from inside.
