Chapter 115 Personnel Adjustment and Industrial Expansion
After the "Daily Express" got rid of other distribution channels, the daily circulation was still greatly affected, from 400,000 to 300,000 copies, making Lai Zhiying think that the "Daily Express" was about to collapse and would soon go out of business.
However, this situation lasted only two days, and as 500 official newspaper delivery workers and 500 part-time students, grandfathers, and grandmothers took to the streets, the circulation of the "Daily Express" suddenly rose to more than 400,000, which was tens of thousands higher than before.
Paul Li and the rest of the newspaper were surprised by this situation, but Lin Cheng had already expected it, after all, the channels of newsstands, bookstores, and convenience stores were fixed, but the newspaper delivery people hired by Lin Cheng were mobile, and after each of them chartered a district, they would move around the entire community, covering the places where everyone in the community gathered, and the sales of newspapers would naturally rise.
This kind of mobile newspaper distribution is not new in the new century, but in 97 years of Hong Kong can be regarded as the first move, this move is undoubtedly very harmful to the interests of the publishers, because after the success of the "Tian Tian Express" mobile newspaper distribution, many small and medium-sized newspapers with incomplete distribution channels have also followed the same example and hired newspaper delivery people to sell newspapers on the move.
Lin Cheng naturally didn't bother to pay attention to whether the publisher was dead or alive, these greedy publishers made trouble twice in his newspaper office, and Lin Cheng, who had a small belly and chicken intestines, would only be happier when he saw them unlucky, and he would never pity them.
A week later, the "Daily Express", which was gradually on the right track, ushered in a major adjustment in terms of personnel, and Lin Cheng, as the big boss of the newspaper, did not hold any meeting, but appointed Ai Lili and Wang Yongming as the vice presidents of the newspaper, and Zhang Wencai, recommended by Paul Li, was appointed as the deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper.
It is worth noting that Lin Cheng paid a lot of money to poach senior editor Huang Dechao from "Ta Kung Pao" and appointed him as the editor-in-chief of the editorial department of "Daily Express", with a status equal to Paul Li.
This change is undoubtedly very huge, before the adjustment, there were only two high-level executives at the boss level of "Daily Express", Lin Cheng and Paul Li, but after the adjustment, the number of high-level executives at the boss level suddenly increased to six.
And in addition to Huang Dechao, who has deep qualifications in the media industry, Wang Yongming, Ai Lili, and Zhang Wencai are all young people with very shallow qualifications, although the three of them are all leaders in their respective departments, but all three of them are under the age of 30, which is too young!
But even if others questioned it, they didn't dare to show it when facing Lin Cheng, and now Lin Cheng has become the spiritual leader of the newspaper, deeply loved by the low-level employees, and no one can shake his authority.
Before the personnel adjustment, he was the president of the newspaper and the editor-in-chief of the editorial department, and Lin Cheng rarely came to work in the newspaper, so it can be said that he held the power in the newspaper and covered the sky.
However, Lin Cheng's adjustment this time not only increased Wang Yongming, Ai Lili, and Zhang Wencai, the three high-level vice presidents, to divide his power, but even poached Huang Dechao without informing him and gave him the position of editor-in-chief of the newspaper, which undoubtedly made Paul Li very sad and embarrassed.
Lin Cheng also knew that this was a little unfair to Paul Li, and it was quite a bit like crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. But Lin Cheng didn't plan to explain to him that Xiangjiang is not the mainland, and the mainland environment is backward and there is a shortage of talents, so Lin Cheng is very accommodating to talents, and does not hesitate to retain talents with high salaries.
But Xiangjiang is a society with extremely fierce competition for talents, without Paul Li as the general manager, Lin Cheng can immediately find countless talents who are much higher than Paul Li to serve as the general manager, Lin Cheng does not need to accommodate him, after all, Paul Li is not an irreplaceable person.
Li Paul's face became very ugly after receiving the notice of personnel adjustment, and the original decentralization of power to Wang Yongming, Ai Lili, and Zhang Wencai had already made him very depressed, but fortunately, these three people were basically recommended by him, so he felt better.
But he never expected that Lin Cheng actually poached Huang Dechao from "Ta Kung Pao" and gave him the position of editor-in-chief, which made Paul Li very dissatisfied, and he stayed in his office all day today, waiting for Lin Cheng to explain to him.
But wait and wait until the end of work Lin Cheng did not come to explain to him, after the initial anger, Li Paul calmed down, he gradually realized that he still did not put himself in the right position, now Lin Cheng has entered the "Daily Express", the newspaper is no longer the unit that he could cover the sky with one hand before, but he, like other employees, all have to obey Lin Cheng's orders.
With this understanding, Paul Li finally calmed down, although there was still unwillingness in his heart, but he still retained the position of president anyway, if he had to make trouble with Lin Cheng, maybe he couldn't even keep the position of president.
After all, Paul Li is older, and he doesn't have much ambition in his heart, his wife who was divorced before has now become much more disciplined, and his youngest daughter has gradually become more sensible after being a year older, and now his career and life are gradually becoming stable, much better than when his wife was on the verge of bankruptcy in the newspaper before, what else is he dissatisfied with?!
Thinking of this, Paul Li put away the gloom on his face, showed what he thought was the brightest smile, and congratulated Huang Dechao, Wang Yongming and others who were still working overtime.
Looking at the adoring eyes of the new employees looking at him, Paul Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Take a step back and open the sky, the simple and straightforward words of the ancestors really hide a profound truth of life!"
That night, after getting off work, Lin Cheng organized all the cadres of the newspaper to go to the moonlight hazy bar to celebrate Huang Dechao and Ai Lili, and everyone had a great time.
It is worth mentioning that after Sun Weilong's father and son were transported to Africa for mining, Zhang Yaoyang took over all of Sun Weilong's land and industry, of course, in order to reward and win over Lin Cheng, Sun Weilong's Moonlight Hazy Bar and Yingwei Real Estate Company were transferred to Lin Cheng, and now Lin Cheng is already the big boss of Moonlight Hazy Bar and Yingwei Real Estate Company.
The moonlight is hazy Lin Cheng didn't care much, at most he just let him have a place to spend after tea and dinner, but the real estate company Lin Cheng left by Sun Weilong is very precious, you know, the real estate industry has always been the leading industry in Xiangjiang, Lin Cheng can insert a foot in the real estate industry in Xiangjiang, he will naturally not be polite.
In addition, after Mi Dawei's instigation of Sun Weilong to kill Lin Cheng was discovered by Lin Cheng, Lin Cheng did not retaliate with great fanfare, but took Sun Weilong to negotiate with Mi Dawei, and finally took a piece of New Territories land and a piece of Saigon land that Mi Dawei promised to hand over to Yingwei Real Estate Company.
These two pieces of land are more than 1,000 square meters of super land, as long as Lin Cheng can complete the development, the profit is at least as high as more than 10 billion or 2 billion Hong Kong dollars, Lin Cheng got two pieces of land, his heart is really happy.
Lin Cheng still has great ambitions for Xiangjiang Real Estate, anyway, he is not a native of Xiangjiang, and he has no sense of guilt about the high housing prices in Xiangjiang in the future.
And since Li Chaoren and Li Zhaoji, who are wealthy people in Xiangjiang, are desperately squeezing the locals to earn their hard-earned money, why can't Lin Cheng, as a foreigner, make this money? !
……
Now Lin Cheng is very busy, not only to keep an eye on the development process of the Southeast Asian financial crisis but also to expand the industry in Xiangjiang, after some understanding of the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, Lin Cheng decided to start with Feitu Records.
When it comes to Feitu Records, everyone may be very unfamiliar, but when it comes to Emperor Entertainment, everyone is very familiar with it, yes, Feitu Records is the predecessor of Emperor Entertainment.
Feitu Records was founded in 1991, and its founder is Ye Zhiming, a name that everyone must be unfamiliar with, but when it comes to his old sister Ye Yuqing, I am afraid everyone knows it.
Lin Cheng himself feels very sorry, the era he crossed over is still a little late, and now Ye Yuqing has married American businessman Hu Mingming, until 2017, when Lin Cheng crossed, Ye Yuqing lived very happily.
I still have some appreciation for Hu Mingming, an American businessman Lin Cheng, who is a well-known food agent of the United States and has a large number of industries in Xiangjiang and Canada.
What Lin Cheng appreciates the most is his tolerant attitude towards Ye Yuqing, in the nineties, it can be said that almost all Chinese have seen Ye Yuqing's body, but Hu Lighting did not discriminate against Ye Yuqing at all, but redoubled his love for her, and the relationship between the two has always been very stable and strong.
This kind of person who makes Lin Cheng feel appreciated has deepened Lin Cheng's regret, the relationship between the husband and wife of the Nima family is so good, and the life is happy and the children are complete, Lin Cheng is embarrassed to break up the family, although Lin Cheng admits that he is a bit of a scumbag, but he still can't do such a bottomless thing.
"Hey!" Lin Cheng sighed, and could only regret missing the goddess Ye Yuqing.
To get back to the point, the Feitu record that Lin Cheng wants to acquire has developed well since its inception, except for the first two years, since Ye Zhiming announced his withdrawal in 94, it has been worse year by year, and now it has reached the point where it is unsustainable.
Feitu Records can now be called a well-known artist, except for the terminally ill Luo Wen and the forced king Xie Lemon, there is no one left, Rowan is sick and has not lived for a few years, and Xie Lemon is not a good waiter, relying on his father's name always put on a hanging appearance, which makes Xiangjiang people look very unpleasant to him, every time Xie Lemon sings on stage, the boos are always greater than the applause, and he often bombards him off the stage.
Huo Wenxi had stayed in Feitu Records, and Lin Cheng's idea of wanting to acquire Feitu Records was naturally in favor of it, and Lin Cheng didn't bother to personally participate in the acquisition and handed over the acquisition to Huo Wenxi.
