Chapter 6: Two Books

Xu Qing asked a lot about Carney Media, and rubbed his brows again, Carney Media was a mess.

Grandpa's purpose in founding Carney Media is to hope that the Chinese will have a voice and a channel for dissemination.

The voice is spoken by Carney Newspaper, which is not printed in Chinese but in English, unlike most Chinese newspapers.

Grandpa hopes that the main users of Carney's newspaper are English-speakers, not just Chinese, so that it can have real influence, after all, the mainstream group in the United States is English-speaking people.

Therefore, the content source of Carney Newspaper is divided into two parts, one part is about the Chinese, this part of the content is relatively small, but it is placed on the most important pages of the newspaper.

The other part of the content is American, international, and other ethnic content, and this part is more content, and it is to attract those who speak English to read the newspaper.

And Carney is free to distribute, so the sales will be as high as possible.

The communication channel is Carney Press, which publishes all Chinese classics and books by Chinese authors, printed in English.

Grandpa did a lot of measures to expand the influence of Carney Media, and it is clear that these measures have failed, and Carney Media is crumbling and about to go bankrupt.

"Does the publishing house have any books in progress?" Xu Qing asked.

"I just received a manuscript for a book and I'm preparing to publish it. A middle-aged Asian man replied.

The middle-aged Asian man is Yang Jin, the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, Xu Qing glanced at him and said, "Return the manuscript of this book, and I will give you a manuscript in 10 days." ”

"Okay. Yang Jin replied immediately.

Then Xu Qing handed eight pieces of paper to Johansen, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, and said, "Johansen, the Carney newspaper will start serializing this novel tomorrow. ”

These 8 sheets of paper are printed with the beginning of a novel, with more than 8,000 words, divided into 4 chapters.

The novel is called "Angels and Demons", and the original author is Dan Brown, a well-known best-selling author in Xu Qing's previous life, who wrote a popular book "The Da Vinci Code" that has swept the world and sold hundreds of millions of copies.

Although "Angels and Demons" did not sell as much as "The Da Vinci Code", it also sold tens of millions of copies, making it an extremely best-selling book.

Now that this novel has been published by Xu Qing in advance, he shamelessly worked as a porter, and he will carry more things from his previous life in the future.

There is no way, reborn in this era, he is still an ordinary person, except for the improvement of his memory, nothing else has changed, and he has not become a super genius.

If he wants to succeed in this era, he will inevitably have to carry the things of his previous life, well, these words are to relieve his guilt, no matter what, he has decided to carry it, and he will also compensate those people.

Johansen took the paper and looked at it casually, he was very unconvinced that Xu Qing became the general manager of Carney Media.

Xu Qingjun's reputation has long spread throughout Carney Media, a gentleman who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun to manage Carney Media, I am afraid that he just treats Carney Media as a toy, playing at will, and discarding it at will.

Just now I heard Xu Qing say that he would make Carney Media's profit exceed $10 million within three months, and Johansen already had the idea of resigning.

He considers himself the most capable man at Carney Media, and his last job as a reporter for the Los Angeles Times was much more noble than that of the editor-in-chief of Carney.

If it weren't for a very serious mistake that almost got him removed from the media industry, he wouldn't have come to Carney Media.

This novel called "Angels and Demons" could not have been written by this gentleman, who wants to be famous? Johansen thought to himself after reading the first paper.

Then I opened the second sheet, and it was interesting that Johansen looked at the second sheet much slower than the first.

Then turn the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th sheets at a slower speed.

Johansen was immersed in "Angels and Demons" as if no one was around, and the others wanted to urge him to finish it quickly, and now they were in a meeting, and Xu Qing stopped them.

As a result, the people in the conference room quietly watched Johansen flip through the novel as if no one was around, the scene was very strange, and these people felt very awkward and curious.

Johansen's arrogance, as the entire Carney media knows, usually has been boasting in the company that he used to be a famous reporter for the Los Angeles Times, and he doesn't look down on this, he doesn't look down on that.

Now this arrogant Johansen is attracted by Xu Qing's 8 pieces of paper, and they want to know what is on the paper that can make Johansen so out of shape.

"General Manager, this novel will definitely increase the sales of the newspaper, and I expect to increase sales by at least 30%. Johansen stood up excitedly and said loudly to Xu Qing.

Sales at Carney are declining, from 7,000 copies last year to 6,000 this year.

As the editor-in-chief of the Carney Newspaper, and he was personally invited by Grandpa Xu Qing, he still wanted the newspaper to grow in his hands, but it backfired, because for various reasons, the situation of the newspaper was getting worse day by day.

Now that he had a novel in front of him that would boost newspaper sales, he was so excited that he forgot the rule that his subordinates and superiors should not speak loudly.

"Can you only increase sales by 30%?" Xu Qing touched his chin and said, "You run this novel well, show its power as much as possible, and increase newspaper sales." ”

Newspapers serialize novels, and then the novels increase newspaper sales, which is a common practice in newspapers all over the world.

Now Xu Qing has no money, so it is impossible to recruit a large number of people, so he can only use the method of serializing novels to increase newspaper sales, and when he has money, he will recruit people to expand the newspaper.

Xu Qing looked at the management of Carney Media, who was much calmer than just now, and said with a smile:

"Now I am still a college student, most of the time has to be spent studying, and I can only devote very little time to managing the company, so everyone's work content has not changed, and Jiang Lu is still responsible for the daily operation of the company.

Unless there is something important that I need to make a decision, try not to disturb me if you can not disturb me, after all, my study time is precious. ”

When these people heard Xu Qing's words, they were very convinced, convinced of Xu Qing's shamelessness, and spent most of their time studying?

"Do you have any questions?" asked Xu Qing.

"Nope. ”

For such a small company, if the general manager is changed, there will not be many problems, not to mention that the general manager also said that he rarely comes to the company, and they have nothing to ask.

"Since everyone is okay, let's adjourn. ”

Xu Qing was the first to walk out of the conference room and saw Carlyle chatting happily with a tall woman at the front desk.

"Beautiful lady, this gentleman is gay. Xu Qing walked to the front desk.

"Xu, you go away a little bit, don't disturb my communication with the beauty. Carlyle waved his hand.

When the tall woman saw Xu Qing, she immediately bent down to say hello, and she knew that Xu Qing was the new general manager of the company, the son of the boss, and the second generation of the super rich.

It is said that he likes women very much, and if he is fancied by him, he can live the life of a rich man, LV bags, Chanel perfumes, buy them if you want, and feel excited when you think about it.

Xu Qing ignored the eyes of this tall woman, he had seen too many of these eyes, if it was him before, maybe there would be a cannon.

Now that he was not at all interested in this kind of woman, Xu Qing said and left the company with Carlyle.

"Xu, why are you in such a hurry to leave, didn't you see that woman's eyes?" Carlyle wondered.

With his understanding of Xu Qing, Xu Qing should be able to tune in with that woman a few times, and then leave a number.

"Not interested. Xu Qing responded casually.

"Do you really like man?" Carlyle looked at Xu Qing in horror.

"Get out of the way. ”

Xu Qing leaned on the seat of the car, rubbed his head, and had a morning meeting, feeling a little tired.

He wants to hurry up and write another novel, which is a nuclear-level weapon, which is the confidence that he dares to say that Carney Media will make a profit of more than $10 million in the next three months.
