Chapter 340: Berlin Voice

Jin Yong and Gewen hit it off at first sight. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

For talented young people, Jin Yong has always been very special care, which is an act of literati who have begun to serve the old to express their unwillingness.

Or this is a habit of Mr. Jin Yong as a newspaper owner. He likes to collect talented and capable creators in the supplement of Ming Pao and let them lead the way in Hong Kong.

For Govine, Jin Yong really made a bloody investment.

Not only did he open up the continuity of his column to Govern, but when Govin submitted a manuscript to the Ming Pao supplement, and when the Ming Pao supplement published Govin's column.

More importantly, Jin Yong did not limit the content and number of words in Govine's column.

This means that Govin can write prose, novels, or even reviews or poems, and the number of words can range from a few hundred words to tens of thousands.

What is this concept?

Govin had already learned about the status of the column in the Ming Pao supplement in the minds of literati throughout Hong Kong.

Ming Pao's contribution fee is only at the middle level among the major newspapers in Hong Kong, and the fee for publishing five articles in Ming Pao is the same as that for publishing three articles in Sing Tao Daily or Oriental Daily of the same level.

But even so, there are still countless Hong Kong writers who are proud to open a column in the Ming Pao supplement.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Ming Pao supplement is like the most prosperous Causeway Bay area in Hong Kong, where every inch of land is valuable, and it is a very scarce resource.

So don't look at the "Ming Pao" supplement has a lot of columns, but many columnists have a word limit, ranging from a few hundred words to a few thousand words.

The freedom that Govin got about the word count patch would simply make all the columnists envious, jealous and hateful, and shout Jin Yong's injustice.

At this time, of course, Gewen didn't know that Jin Yong was so optimistic about himself. After agreeing to Jin Yong's column, Jin Yong called Wang Shiyu, the editor-in-chief of "Ming Pao" who worked on the fifth floor, to come up. The three then worked out the name of Govern's column, the fee for the manuscript, and the date for the publication of "Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong."

After sitting for a while, Govin left the Ming Pao Building.

After seeing Ge Wen leave by elevator, Wang Shiyu asked Jin Yong a little strangely: "Cha Sheng, why do you treat Ge Wen so favorably?" ”

Jin Yong replied with a smile: "This Mr. Ge's articles are very good, and I know that he dares to speak up by reading his previous articles, and he has a lot of readers in the mainland, and he is the most outstanding writer of the young generation in the mainland." Ming Pao wants to become the best Chinese newspaper in the world and to carry out reform on the basis of an intellectual newspaper, on the one hand, to attract a large number of readers under the Hong Kong intellectuals, and on the other hand, to expand the influence of the newspaper to the mainland......

Wang Shiyu nodded.

To put it bluntly, Jin Yong's use of Gewen is somewhat similar to his own reasoning.

Jin Yong has seen the shortcomings of Ming Pao's long-term family-style management, so he is eager to change Ming Pao.

The reason why he was able to become the second editor-in-chief after Pan Yuesheng, the former editor-in-chief of "Ming Pao", was that Jin Yong felt that he dared to speak, unlike the former editor-in-chief Pan Yuesheng, who was not afraid of offending people, and that he had just joined the newspaper not long ago, no one knew him, no human interests, and he could make drastic changes.

Thinking about it, Jin Yong's use of Govin is the same reason.

Wang Shiyu sighed a little that his boss was indeed a successful businessman.

But there are some things that he really takes for granted.

The boss also has the helplessness of the boss, Jin Yong is a person who misses the old love. Therefore, although he announced that he was the editor-in-chief of "Ming Pao", he did not file a document saying that Pan Yuesheng was no longer the editor-in-chief.

Therefore, now the entire "Ming Pao" newspaper office is in some chaos, the government decree is not smooth, a trace of bad signs has appeared, and the new employees and old employees of the editorial department are faintly split.

Nominally, he is the editor-in-chief, but the editor-in-chief of the editorial department on the ninth floor of the Ming Pao Building is still sitting at the desk of the editor-in-chief Pan Yuesheng, who is an entrepreneur, and there is no way for him to replace him. Moreover, the editors of each edition still show the finished samples to Pan Yuesheng for inspection, not themselves.

What's more, Pan Yuesheng also handled the pattern as before, and it seemed that nothing had happened.

Although I don't care about these, I am indeed a little uncomfortable in my heart, because as the editor-in-chief, my power is very small, and I want to show my strengths but are restricted everywhere.

But there are some things that I can't and disdain to say to Jin Yong, otherwise there will always be a suspicion of provoking the friendship between Jin Yong and Pan Yuesheng.

Now he has found a place to work on the fifth floor, and he is working with a group of newcomers to make the Sunday special edition of Ming Pao, "Ming Hong Edition".

The "Minghong Edition" is to add an additional page to the "Ming Pao" published every Sunday, and give it to readers free of charge in the Ming Pao.

Printed on colored pastel paper, the page is full of sexy celebrity photos on one side, and advertising and lifestyle content on the other.

This is specifically aimed at the general readers, and according to the survey, there are many migrant workers who stick newspapers on their beds and change them once a week. For this purpose, he also set up a photography studio on the sixth floor of the Ming Pao Building, and invited female celebrities to take pictures.

Wang Shiyu believes that his move will definitely increase the sales of Ming Pao.

When you have convincing results, you will naturally be recognized by the editorial department and truly take over the power of the editor-in-chief.

Not to mention Wang Shiyu's inner activities, just say that after Govin left the Ming Pao Building, he wandered freely in Causeway Bay.

The reason why Causeway Bay became a shopping paradise in Hong Kong in later generations has historical roots. In the 80s or even earlier, it has become a shopping mall in Hong Kong, and it is no wonder that in Hong Kong gangster films, Causeway Bay can become a battleground for gangsters, fighting for a Causeway Bay.

Causeway Bay not only has many shopping malls and large shopping malls, but also many quirky shops in the streets and alleys, and it is these characteristic shops that Govan focuses on.

At the moment, he was in a music shop on the side of the road.

As a former music practitioner, I have spent a few years in the music-deficient environment in the mainland, and when I saw the huge music signboards, Govin naturally wanted to go in and take a turn.

I can buy some discs and take them back to the mainland as gifts for Zhang Ju and He Yong.

This music store is very large and mainly sells CDs, tapes, vinyl discs, and audio equipment such as stereos, headphones, speakers, etc.

Customers choose their own choices like a supermarket, and they go to the counter at the entrance and exit to pay after they have chosen.

Govin wandered through the rows of disc racks, picked up fresh discs, CDs, and tapes to check them out, and listened to them on the autoplayer when he found music of interest.

Hong Kong is worthy of being the financial and cultural center of Asia, and the music in the music store is very comprehensive, and Govin has found a lot of discs here, such as the Beatles' first original music album, Cai Qin's "No Love", "Sad Station", and Teresa Teng's 1982 West German Silver Circle version of "Faint Love".

What excites Govin the most is that he actually finds a copy of Berlin Sound I from a vinyl shelf.

This is a vinyl album with a legendary reputation!

As a time-traveler, Govyn naturally knows the legendary story of this album.

In 1978, the German audio equipment brand "Berlin Sound" was established.

In order to quickly promote its own audio equipment, the world's top and most famous Hi-Fi and Hi-End audio equipment manufacturers in the world in the future generations bought the copyrights of many tracks recorded by other record companies, which are quite representative and superb interpretation standards and have exemplary recording effects, and then compiled them into Berlin Welle's own audition album "Berlin Sound I" after secondary processing.

The most amazing thing is that the processed tracks often sound better than the originals when listened to on high-priced equipment!

Because the disc was released by Berlin Sound to showcase its brand values, design skills, and technical prowess, only 1,000 pieces were produced for this audition album.

At that time, after the 1,000 pieces of "Berlin Sound I" were put on the market, not many people knew the goods, only a dozen top audio manufacturers bought the more regular disc as classical music, and the remaining nearly 1,000 pieces were sold for four years because of the poor management of the sales store, and all the garbage was thrown away when the warehouse was cleared.

After a few more years, the quality of Berlin Sound became more and more liked by music lovers, and the preserved "Berlin Sound I" gradually surfaced, and at this time there were very few surviving "Berlin Sound I".

Later, the Berlin Sound manufacturer released "Berlin Sound II" and "Berlin Sound III", each of which caused music enthusiasts and related manufacturers to rush to buy them. Because this series of music discs not only has outstanding sound effects and high audibility, but can also be used as a display disc for top-notch audio equipment.

Before Govern crossed, there was no genuine or remake of "Berlin Sound I" on the market, and series 2 and 3 were about to rot on the street, but the versions were different, and the sound quality naturally varied greatly. "Berlin Sound I" has a priceless market, and some people have paid millions of dollars and no one is willing to sell it.

Now Govin has found a copy of "Berlin Sound I", which is a big surprise.

From now on, Govin will do nothing, and after twenty years, he will become a multimillionaire if he sells it.

Of course, Govin will not be transferred, for musicians, "Berlin Sound I" is a priceless treasure, and taking it out and pretending to be forced can definitely make all music enthusiasts kneel down and sing to conquer.

Govyn's knowledge of Berlin Sound I is limited to its saga, and as for listening to it, he has never heard of it.

So as soon as possible, he went to the store's audio equipment sales office, called the clerk, and asked the store which set of audio equipment had the best sound quality and the highest price, and then asked the clerk if he could try it.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Govin sat cross-legged on the floor while waiting for the clerk to connect the stereo to the power supply, feeling very excited.

Soon, he will be able to hear the living legend!
