On February 3, 2017, the seventh day of the 2016 Lunar New Year, it was the day of normal work.

It stands to reason that people who go to work on this day should be happy, but for the people of "Xiangjiang News", it is difficult to be happy on this day, because the boss Huang Yuchen lost all his net worth in gambling during the New Year, and he has released the wind to sell "Xiangjiang Morning Post".

"Is the newspaper really going to be sold?" Mao Chong, who only applied to become a editor of the newspaper in the second half of last year, asked his immediate boss, Wen Bin, one of the editors in charge of the newspaper, with a worried look.

"Who knows, you have to get by. Regardless of whether the newspaper is really going to be sold or closed, if you are so young and can find a job anywhere, I will not be able to do it, and I will have to support my family, and if I lose my job, it will be miserable. Wen Bin sighed, then shook his head. He is forty years old this year, with two pairs of old people to support, and a wife in the middle, and a sixteen-year-old man who is studying in secondary school.

Mao Chong said with a smile: "How can it be, Brother Bin is such a powerful pen, and he is a veteran in the media industry, he can find a good job wherever he goes." ”

Wen Bin smiled bitterly a few times and didn't speak, because he didn't know how to explain to the kid Mao Chong.

In the morning, the boss Huang Yuchen walked into the newspaper office with a dejected expression, and saw that Mao Zhong and Wen Bin's heart sank, and the bad feeling became stronger and stronger.

The two looked at each other and sighed in unison.

The economic crisis that broke out a few years ago has made the economy of Xiangjiang unrelieved, and it is becoming more and more difficult to find a job, and this is also one of the main reasons why the contradictions between Xiangjiang and the mainland are getting deeper and deeper. This is because the mainland's economy has been booming since more than 30 years ago, and it has not stopped. It's getting better and better. Comparatively, mental imbalance is for sure.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, a hurried telephone rang from Huang Yuchen's office, and everyone in the newspaper office was startled.

Just as they were secretly speculating whether it was the phone number of the debt collector or the phone number of the court, Huang Yuchen suddenly hurriedly walked out of the newspaper office with his briefcase, with a relieved look on his face. They can even find a happy smile on it.

"Is the problem solved?" Gross weight and Wen Bin looked at each other.

"Hey...... You said that the boss went out in such a hurry, did someone pay back the money for him? An editor, who was usually very active in the newspaper, stood up and guessed loudly.

"Who knows?"

"Not necessarily, maybe you've found a buyer."

"Boss Huang has a lot of contacts in this industry, maybe the bank is willing to lend him money."

"Banks? Forget it! Boss Huang lost his gambling gambling, but he didn't lose money by running a newspaper, how could the bank lend him money? Usury is about the same. ”

……

The people in the newspaper began to talk a lot, and most of the people had ugly faces, and only a few people who had confidence in themselves had indifferent expressions on their faces.

And on the other side. Huang Yuchen, the owner of the "Heung Kong News", hurried to a Peninsula tea restaurant, where someone was waiting to buy his "Heung Kong News".

"Wang Sheng, hello, I am Huang Yuchen, the owner of "Xiangjiang News". After entering, Huang Yuchen quickly found someone who came, it was none other than ATV's new vice president Wang Xuecheng.

Meet Huang Yuchen. Wang Xuecheng immediately stood up politely, and then shook hands with him warmly. As he spoke, he pointed to the seat opposite and motioned for him to sit down: "Hello, Mr. Huang." Please sit down, let's sit down and talk. ”

"Thank you!" Huang Yuchen thanked him, sat down immediately, and then took a sip of the teacup on the table. I was in a hurry and a little thirsty when I came.

Wang Xuecheng smiled kindly, and then took out a document and handed it to Huang Yuchen: "I'll make a long story short!" This is the condition of our ATV's acquisition of the news newspaper, Boss Huang will take a look first, if he agrees. We'll be able to sign up in the afternoon. ”

Huang Yuchen was stunned for a moment, with a wry smile and resentment in his heart, but he was helpless, who made the situation stronger than others, he had already reached a dead end, so he could only patiently take the document over, and then read it carefully.

There is a lot of content written on the document, but for some of the content, Huang Yuchen does not pay much attention to it except to carefully see if there are any traps, and he is most concerned about the offer made by ATV.

ATV's conditions did not surprise him, and ATV needed a 100% stake in the Hong Kong News.

But on the offer, ATV gave only three million, which was far from the five million he expected.

When he saw this offer, Huang Yuchen was already frowning. Later, he glanced at it roughly, and then didn't pay attention to it anymore, and instead pointed to the offer of three million and said to Wang Xuecheng: "Wang Sheng, the price I quoted is five million, but your ATV only gives three million, is this too low?" ”

Wang Xuecheng smiled and said: "The number of copies of your newspaper is less than 5,000 copies, and the annual profit is less than 2 million, is the price of 3 million very low?" Not low at all. With an offer of five million, Boss Huang, your appetite is inevitably too great. Moreover, in a short period of time, only we ATV are willing to take over Boss Huang's newspaper and are willing to buy it directly with cash. ”

Huang Yuchen's heart sank, Wang Xuecheng's words sounded nothing, but the threat behind it was obvious.

Obviously, Wang Xuecheng knew that he was in a hurry to repay his debts, so he deliberately lowered the offer.

"Capitalists are vampires!"

Huang Yuchen scolded indignantly in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't dare to be angry, but bowed his head helplessly: "Okay, Wang Sheng, you win, three million is three million, and we will sign a contract in the afternoon?" "Although there are two million less, three million is enough to pay off the debt, and more importantly, if the money is not paid off within seven days, the vicious loan sharks and black people will eat him alive.

"Of course!" Wang Xuecheng replied to him affirmatively, with a sense of joy in his heart, and helped the boss to complete an errand and continue to be a local tyrant to buy the company.

When Stephen Zhao proposed to buy a newspaper, Wang Xuecheng didn't understand why he suddenly had this idea, but he quickly expressed his support.

To build a media empire, with TV stations, film and television companies, and music companies, how can you not have a newspaper?

Wang Xuecheng heard that the "Xiangjiang News" was in trouble. The boss Huang Yuchen lost money because of gambling and was eager to raise money to pay off his debts, so he took the initiative and put forward a request for acquisition.

Now, it's time to go.

Although it is only a small newspaper with a daily sales of less than 5,000 copies, Wang Xuecheng still has a sense of accomplishment.

Afternoon. When the employees of "Xiangjiang News" went to work, they soon found that Wang Xuecheng, the vice president of ATV, suddenly came, not only followed by the secretary, but also followed by a few lawyers, they were immediately stunned, and looked stupidly at Wang Xuecheng and led people into the office of the boss Huang Yuchen, thinking: ", is the buyer ATV?" ”

It wasn't until Wang Xuecheng's figure disappeared in front of them that they came back to their senses. You look at me, I look at you, and after a while, all of them were crazy and laughed, the male employees laughed hilariously, and the female employees laughed wildly.

"Great, the buyer is actually ATV!"

"People say, should we thank that casino? If there is no casino. The boss won't lose money, won't lose money. The newspaper won't sell it, and if the newspaper won't sell it, ATV, the big financier, will be gone......"

"I'll pinch you and see if you're dreaming now? All right? ”

"Get out of here!"

……

Everyone was left with only one thought: "I'm going to be developed." ”

Although ATV is down, the camel that suffers is bigger than the horse, for them, the employees of the small newspaper. is still a behemoth, eager to cry and shout and beg for support. Not to mention, after Stephen Zhao became the owner, ATV was engaged in the Asian sister beauty pageant and the New Year's Eve concert. There are many tricks, and there is already a trend of emerging. At this time, the newspaper can be acquired by ATV, which is a good thing that every employee can't dream of.

In the morning, Mao Zhong and Wen Bin, who were worried, also showed a happy smile at this time, jumped up and cheered excitedly, and even celebrated with hugging movements.

Half an hour later, when Huang Yuchen's office door opened again, Huang Yuchen called a meeting of all the employees of the newspaper.

Under their expectant gaze, Huang Yuchen announced loudly: "From today onwards, the news newspaper will be fully acquired by ATV, and you will all be employees of ATV in the future......"

Before he finished speaking, the employees below couldn't wait to interrupt him with their cheers, rebelled without discipline, and happily became an ATV employee, everyone's face showed a relaxed and happy look.

Huang Yuchen scolded in his heart: "These ungrateful things! ”

At the same time, in the ATV headquarters building, Stephen Zhao was also convening a meeting of employees, but not all employees, but only a group of executives from the news production department.

"The company has acquired the Heung Kong News, which is the information of this newspaper. I'm going to pick one of you to be the general manager in the past, and who wants to volunteer? Stephen Zhao instructed his secretary Cai Yan to distribute a copy of the "Xiangjiang News" to everyone in the conference room, and then asked with a smile.

Half loud, no one said a word.

Zhao Xingchi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?" Don't you want to be the general manager of this newspaper? Rather be the head of a chicken than a phoenix tail, none of you here have this determination? ”

He was going to test them.

Still no one said anything.

Stephen Zhao was disappointed, and was about to say that the meeting would be dismissed, and then recruit a professional from outside to manage the "Xiangjiang News", when a deputy director stood up and volunteered: "Zhao Sheng, I want to give it a try." I have one condition, though. ”

"You're Hong Baowei, aren't you? Tell me, what are your conditions? Stephen Zhao recognized the deputy director and asked with interest, this is the first person who dared to make conditions to him without doing anything.

"I need Zhao Sheng to do me a small favor." Hong Baowei said confidently, strong self-confidence infected everyone present, and it seemed that he had won the battle. (To be continued......)
