Uncrowned King!

This title is rarely mentioned now, but in the eighties and nineties of the last century, it was a familiar title, which was used exclusively to honor journalists.

"The title of 'uncrowned king' is not called in vain. Wu Mian took another puff of cigarette and said proudly, "In the past few years, how many well-known people in the political and business circles in the country have actually been pulled down by the media. Don't talk about anything else, fat man, isn't that director you easily got rid of a few months ago a typical example? ”

Pang Xun smiled. It was one of the fat man's triumphs, and it happened this summer, when he was out at a buffet, and a woman who was even fatter than him had no public morals, cut in line every time she picked up food, and turned over good snacks. The fat man couldn't see it and reminded a few words, the woman actually scolded angrily and poured him tea, in order not to affect the mood of eating, the fat man did not have a seizure on the spot, but later found out that the woman worked in the Social Security Bureau and was the director of a department with the most oil and water.

Pang Xun was quite calm, and after more than a month, he quietly came to the Social Security Bureau one morning, and unknowingly took a photo of the obese female director playing "stealing vegetables" on the computer during work hours, and wrote a report on the "Zhuzhou Online" website after he returned. The report was widely reprinted by local media and attracted the attention of a large number of netizens. Two days later, the Social Security Administration announced that the female director had been demoted and transferred out of the department with the "most oil and water".

In fact, in all fairness, the female director was quite conscientious in her work, and if she hadn't been exposed by public opinion, she wouldn't have suffered from playing games at all. She always thought that she was unlucky, and happened to encounter a reporter's secret visit and bumped into the muzzle of the gun, unaware that the other party's purpose in the first place was to find her trouble.

"It's really relieving to be able to get rid of that female director that time, but she's not a big official. Qi Haiguang reminded, "This kind of mung bean sesame official, we are not afraid of her, and the editor-in-chief of 'Zhuzhou Online' will not be afraid of her, so the report can go out on the street." But if you meet a big official with real power, even if you have the courage to write the report, your boss may not dare to publish it!"

"What Ah Hai said makes a lot of sense. We now only have the right to interview, and we don't have the right to control the media itself. Only when you enter the core of this circle and decide which reports can go out on the street and which ones can't, can you truly become the 'uncrowned king'! At that time, even if it is still not enough to deal with the big officials who hold real power, at least it can make the other party have some scruples and increase our ability to deal with them. ”

Wu Mian snuffed out the cigarette butt when he said this: "What's more, I want to develop the media career, and my original intention is not to be an enemy of officials. As long as we can use the power of the media to mix in the business and entertainment worlds, it is enough for us to be happy. At that time, it is natural that there will be powerful people at the top who will take a fancy to our influence and integrate us into the formal system. Liu Changhuan, the founder of Hong Kong Peacock Satellite TV, is the best example. ”

"If you want to become the editor-in-chief, you must at least be at the level of department director. Pang Xun shook his head, "This industry is also based on seniority, even if our work performance is excellent, we will never reach that level in three or five years." ”

"For just three or five years, some people have been running for the rest of their lives and are just ordinary reporters!" Qi Haiguang said.

"That's because they don't have strong resources at hand!" Wu Mian smiled, "Ah Hai, if in the next half a year, you can launch exclusive news in the entertainment industry for more than ten or twenty issues in a row, and at the same time bring millions of yuan of advertisements for your weekly magazine, what do you think will be the result?"

Qi Haiguang jumped up with an "ah": "Then I must get a director...... No, at least it has to be the deputy editor-in-chief!"

The entertainment weekly "Popcorn" where he works is a completely market-oriented publication, and everything depends on "performance". Wu Mian just mentioned the two major "achievements", casually completing one of them is enough to make him a core backbone, and if both can be completed, it is not surprising that he will be directly promoted to the second position after the president.

"Ah Mian, of course I can do it with your help in advertising, but I can make more than ten or twenty consecutive episodes of exclusive entertainment news? Even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't do it. Qi Haiguang quickly calmed down and asked questions.

"Let's talk about this slowly next time, in short, I already have a way!" Wu Mian was confident. In his opinion, it is not difficult at all, as long as he watches the future entertainment channel once a week, he can grasp the major news clues in the entertainment industry in advance. Not to mention that it's just a dozen or twenty consecutive episodes of exclusives, no matter how long the record is, it's no problem.

"Fatty, I'll try to support you on your side. Wu Mian turned to Pang Xun and said, "You do a good job of local social news and breaking news, take the route of the public, and make every effort to attract the attention of the low-class people, even if it is strange and vulgar lace news, don't let it go, as long as you can pass the censorship." As for me, I will concentrate on in-depth reporting on the business and financial circles to establish a reputation among the elite. ”

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted. The fat man nodded, "However, I think you should build an official website for Dongjiang Business Daily, and transform from a pure newspaper to a 'combination of newspapers and networks'." Now that we are in the age of the Internet, the decline of print media will inevitably accelerate, even if you can publish exclusive news in the newspaper every day, the online media will steal the results as soon as it is reprinted. ”

"The official website is definitely going to be built, but not now. It will not be too late for me to relaunch the brand of "Dongjiang Business Daily" and have a large number of loyal readers. At this stage, if they like to steal, they can steal it, as long as the source is "Dongjiang Business Daily" when it is reprinted, it will also increase the influence of this newspaper. ”

There is another reason that Wu Mian didn't say, that is, Duan Yu is still riding on his head, and he must first smash this guy down before he can consider a longer-term transformation path, otherwise he will only be busy in vain.

Next, Wu Mian told the two die-hard friends how he was going to distribute the more than 9 million funds he had on hand, of which 6 million would be used for investment appreciation. Three million were temporarily left on the books to maneuver as expenses for the development of the three of them. The remaining more than 500,000 yuan will be given to the two of them, which can be regarded as an "advance dividend" for their future careers.

Pang Xun and Qi Haiguang both smiled. The three of them continued to talk about the grand plan with great interest, and did not disperse until after twelve o'clock in the morning.

After Wu Mian returned home, he slept until eight o'clock the next morning, and after breakfast, he took a car to the Municipal Convention and Exhibition Center to continue to participate in the "Pearl River Delta Commodity Fair".

Today, he didn't watch "Early Reading of the World", because summing up the experience of watching TV a few times before, the "wormhole" is obviously very unstable, and it seems that it can only last for more than 20 minutes a day. He hoped to see as much "heavenly opportunity" as possible from this limited 20-odd minutes, so he decided to change his taste today and find another program to watch.

In anticipation, the whole morning passed quickly, and after the event, Wu Mian couldn't wait to return home, turned on the TV and entered the three numbers of "0", "0" and "1".

Tomorrow's TV show appeared on the screen. He pressed the remote control and looked for the financial channels one by one.

Although his dream is to develop a media career, at this stage, the first priority is still how to make a huge fortune quickly, and the easiest way is of course to watch the financial channel.

Wu Mian quickly found Dongjiang Financial Channel, it is now 12 o'clock at noon, the senior anchor of the station is making a simple summary of the morning market situation, first reported the big inventory points, and then reported the stock prices of many blue chip stocks one by one, as well as the names of some companies whose stock prices have risen significantly.

Wu Mian hurriedly moved his laptop and opened his stock account online.

Two years ago, Wu Mian also tried to speculate in stocks, but he lost a lot of money, and he never dared to set foot in the stock market again. Now it is different, with the most confidence in the world, he bought ten stocks in one go, five of which are stocks that will be limited in the market tomorrow morning, and the other five are slightly loss, using a total of more than 2 million yuan. The reason why the combination of "five wins and five losses" is set is to hide people's eyes, and he has calculated that the return rate of this combination is exactly 5%.

After the operation of Wu Mian is completed, the morning market summary is just over. He saw that today's "wormhole" had not disappeared, so he picked up the remote control and switched to the local Zhuzhou Finance and Economics Station to see if there were any other gains.

The station also happened to be broadcasting the news, and an intern anchor was reading the script: "...... Rumors were raging about Chai Qing, the investment director of Huisheng China, and there was news on the Internet that she committed suicide by jumping off a building at her residence at midnight yesterday......"

Wu Mian exclaimed "ah", staring at the TV with wide eyes.

I saw that the screen switched to the picture of a high-end residential community, and at the same time, the anchor's voiceover continued to sound: "Although the news has not been confirmed, our reporter rushed to the community where Chai Qing lives this morning, according to the property security guard......"

At that moment, the screen jumped violently, and then went black!

Wu Mian was so angry that he almost smashed the remote control. This damn "wormhole"! It doesn't disappear sooner or later, but it disappears at such a critical time, and I don't see the most important content!

Chai Qing! I haven't seen Chai Qing for a long time...... How could it be...... Suicide?

Wu Mian's heart hung up, and he quickly took out his mobile phone to dial Pang Xun's number.

After connecting, the fat man smiled and said that he was about to call. In the morning, he and Qi Haiguang have been in accordance with Wu Mian's plan, respectively, to the provincial sports lottery center to run, claiming to report the leak, and then repeatedly called and inquired, causing a lot of pressure on the other party, it is estimated that the whole plan will be able to achieve the effect.

"Thank you, thank you, you're doing a great job! I have another important thing for you now. Wu Mian casually praised a few words and then quickly interrupted the fat man and asked him about Chai Qing's condition.

"Chai Qing, is that the girl you used to chase?" the fat man immediately remembered, "What, do you want to chase her again......?"

"I know, I mean, do your peers in the financial section have her contact information? I want to find her as soon as possible!"

"It's not easy to find her? There is a financial forum at this afternoon's 'Business Fair', which Huisheng China attends every year...... Wait a minute, I'll check the guest list for you...... Ha, I saw it! Chai Qing really participated, and she was arranged to be the first to speak. ”

Wu Mian was in good spirits, hung up the phone, went out of the house, went to the street to have a lunch, and then took a taxi to the city convention and exhibition center to attend the financial forum that started at two o'clock on time.
