The reason why the content was streamlined was that Ang Lee remembered was not comprehensive enough, and secondly, in order to save paper, if he wrote all the original silently, the first time it would take up a lot of paper, and the weight of the newspaper was too sufficient, and the novel was written too long-winded, and it was difficult for people to bring in, which was not conducive to cultivating interest in reading.

At the end of the novel, it is naturally the most classic sentence, if you want to know what will happen next, please see the next breakdown, in addition, Ang Lee also advertised the industry he mastered to increase the sales of the product.

As for the cost of advertising, Ang Lee feels that he can offset it with the novel he wrote, after all, this is a very popular masterpiece in later generations, and the cost of a single manuscript is naturally higher, so it is completely understandable to offset the advertising cost.

In order to let readers understand their advertising products, in addition to the text introduction, Ang Lee also carved a lot of graphics on wax paper, so that readers can understand the advertisements more intuitively.

In the room, not only Li An was busy, but also a number of literati were learning to write with an iron needle pen, which was extremely easy for Li An to write, but in the eyes of these literati, it was quite difficult, they were used to writing with a brush, and the posture of holding the brush was completely different from the iron pen, and these literati had to start from scratch if they wanted to learn this craft well.

However, after all, these are all literati with a certain level, and all of them are adults with a high IQ, and the progress of learning is still very good, Li An just let them watch themselves write, and did not give any substantive guidance, and these people actually through careful observation, quickly learned some tricks of writing with an iron pen, although the handwriting is very unsightly, just like a primary school student who has just learned to write, but at least he can barely use an iron pen, and in the future, as long as he practices more, he can write more beautiful words than Li An.

After finishing his page, Li An got up and relaxed, and checked the practice of several literati.

"No, no, your writing is too ugly, you have to practice more, remember, writing with an iron pen is completely different from writing with a brush, the posture of holding the pen is very important, you must do it according to the requirements of the official, what about you? The posture of holding the pen is wrong, so it should be like this. ”

Ang Lee has become a teacher who teaches children, teaching these literati to engrave on wax paper bit by bit, in order to save effort in the future and for the journalism of Datang, Ang Lee's contribution is absolutely worth it.

"Li Shilang, Li Taibai, and Du Zimei have already come, and they promised to join the Datang Newspaper."

A small official came to report.

"Haha! That's really good, the best literati in Datang are all in my Datang Newspaper office, let's go, go and see them. ”

Li An was very happy to recruit the first batch of talents, as long as there are these first batch of talents, the following work will be easy to carry out.

"Yo, Uncle Taibai, Uncle Zimei, you're all here! In the future, Datang Daily will depend on you. ”

Li An is a Li Bai, Du Fu, don't mention how happy he is in his heart.

"Don't dare to be, dare to ask Li Shilang, what work are we responsible for, and how much is it?"

Du Fu has been a little tight on money recently, and he is more concerned about Yulu.

Li Bai seemed relatively calm, not treating Li An as a leader at all, and pacing back and forth in the room to watch.

Li An explained with a smile: "The two uncles will hold the position of deputy editor-in-chief, and the rank will be from the sixth rank, which is the same as that of other officials with the same official position, as for the work in charge, you will know it slowly, and if you are new to it, you should familiarize yourself with the environment first!" There's no need to rush at work. ”

"From the sixth grade, it's good, it's really good!"

When Li Bai heard this, he was very happy in his heart, and he said it proudly, Du Fu also had a sense of satisfaction, he had stayed in the capital for so long, he had used all the methods, and he had never been able to get the reuse of the imperial court, so that eating was a problem, and now he suddenly encountered such a good errand, and the joy in his heart did not need to be repeated.

Looking at Li Bai and Du Fu's happy and satisfied expressions, Li An was also happy in his heart, and took out the wax paper that had just been carved and let them see it.

"Li Shilang, what is this?"

Du Fu asked seriously.

"This is wax paper, and it will depend on it to print newspapers in the future, so let's try it now."

Ang Lee explained, put the engraved wax paper into the template, then gently put it down, and finally rolled it on top of the wax paper with a cylindrical roller stained with ink.

"Okay, it's already printed."

Ang Lee lifted the template, and the first sheet of paper below had been printed with small print, that is, a condensed version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes written by Ang Lee.

Because the first issue of the newspaper had to be printed in 1,000 copies, it was necessary to print 1,000 copies of the exact same paper.

"Do you understand, the use of wax paper printing is so simple, and the handwriting can be smaller and clearer, a few of you come to print, you must master the mimeograph technology, the most basic technology, you have to master, this is your most basic skill as an employee of Datang Newspaper, of course, this skill is also extremely simple."

Ang Lee printed only one sheet, and then left the rest of the printing tasks to someone else.

All the newly recruited talents, including Li Bai and Du Fu, came over to try to print, such a simple printing technology naturally could not be difficult for these people, and soon everyone learned this printing technology.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes, what is this, a story?"

Li Bai picked up a printed piece of paper and discussed it with Du Fu next to him in a low voice.

"Brother Taibai, I've read half of it, it's not bad, it's interesting, don't talk, keep reading."

Du Fu was a little fascinated by it, and he was reluctant to deal with Li Bai.

Li Bai felt bored, so he squatted down and read the novel seriously.

"If you want to know what will happen next, please see the next breakdown, it's gone."

Li Bai and Du Fu glanced at each other, feeling a little unpleasant, and suddenly couldn't see the content behind them halfway, which felt really maddening.

"Two uncles, this is a serialized novel, each issue of the newspaper will put a little content, in order to increase the sales of the newspaper, if you want to write something, you can also write some, and there is a manuscript fee?"

Ang Lee said with a smile.

"How is the manuscript fee calculated?"

Du Fu was scared, and when he heard that he had paid the manuscript fee for writing something, he was very happy, and hurriedly asked.

"There are no detailed rules for this, the main thing is to look at the number of words and level, if you write well, you will give more, and if you write badly, you will give less."

Li An said truthfully that the standard of manuscript fees has not yet been formulated, and this needs to be gradually formulated according to the specific situation after the newspaper is issued.

As for the work of Li Bai and Du Fu, they were mainly responsible for typesetting and checking, and immediately asked for correction of typos, and in addition, they also had to write more high-level articles and poems, so as to increase the cultural level of the Datang Daily.

"Li Shilang, the manuscripts of Your Majesty and the six princes have been delivered."

A little eunuch brought in the manuscripts written by Li Longji and the six princes, and handed them into Li An's hands with his own hands.

"Li Shilang, this is what I have recorded, the strange things that have happened in the capital in the past two days."

A staff member turned in the manuscript.

Li An looked at the large number of manuscripts in his hand and sighed secretly: "Some of them are busy tonight, but they don't sleep!" ”

Before his subordinates were proficient in using the iron pen, the task of carving on wax paper could only be completed by Li An alone, which was naturally quite hard!

When Li An worked hard to start carving on wax paper, many of the recruited staff began to gradually become familiar with the various work and equipment of the newspaper, and tried it out with their own hands, so as to know in their hearts, and every time Li An carved a sheet, these staff had to use the machine to work hard to mimeograph, a thousand copies of the newspaper, printing is still very physically demanding.

Li Ang worked hard for several hours, and it was not until the middle of the night that all the manuscripts were written, while many staff members were laboriously carrying paper and ink, and printing the wax paper engraved by Li An.

In order to save paper, newspapers are printed on the front and back, so that a single piece of paper can be printed twice as much, and a newspaper of the same weight can be doubled in content.

In the process of printing, there can be no mistakes, and it is necessary to print in strict accordance with the number in the lower right corner, otherwise, the printed newspaper will be extremely chaotic, and it is necessary to absolutely eliminate the front and back of the reverse printing, so as not to affect the reader's reading experience.

After Li Ang finished his work, he took a nap in the room and listened to the busy printing of the staff, he enjoyed this feeling very much, and felt that it was an extremely pleasant feeling.

"Li Shilang, all the newspapers have been printed."

The little official spoke.

Li An opened his eyes and looked at them, and ordered: "Immediately sort out in order, and separate a thousand newspapers so that they can be sold tomorrow." ”

"Yes, Li Shilang."

The workers and men began to be busy again, forming stacks of printed newspapers into a thousand ready-to-sell newspapers.

"Li Shilang, I've already made a hundred copies, take a look."

Li An picked up a newspaper, read it from beginning to end, nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I want, it's already very good to be like this at the beginning, and it can be gradually improved in the future." ”

"Li Shilang, how should I sell it early tomorrow morning, and how much is the right price?"

The clerk asked.

"The first issue of the newspaper does not charge money, it is given away for free, tomorrow morning, you will scatter these newspapers and spread them, all the prosperous places in the capital must have them, the better taverns, restaurants, and Qinglou must put a copy, and each yamen must also put a copy, and leave ten copies to be sent to the palace and handed over to Your Majesty and the princes."

Li An said.

"Yes, Li Shilang, I understand my humble position."

Li An yawned and looked at everyone: "It's not early, you all rest!" The official is going back. ”

Tired in the middle of the night, Li An was sleepy and tired, and he had no energy at all, so he fell asleep directly after going back, whirring.

Early in the morning of the second day, Li An was still making up for sleep, and if he didn't sleep until noon, he wouldn't get up, what he lost had to be made up, and he would die early if he was too tired, Li An didn't want to die early, so as long as he had the opportunity, he was lazy and rested.

However, the rest of the staff of the newspaper office went to work on time, and now in addition to being familiar with the work, they are left to go out and distribute newspapers, and all the work is in charge of Li Bai and Du Fu.

These two people have slightly different personalities, so they are responsible for different tasks.

Du Fu Du Zimei stayed in the newspaper office and led a group of people to learn to engrave on wax paper, although Du Fu did not need to do this kind of work, he was very interested in this and wanted to learn it earlier.

And Li Bai is not happy to learn lettering, he took another group of people, carried a large number of newspapers, went to all the prosperous areas of the capital, and gave the newspapers to the teahouse, restaurant and green building for free, each location is placed at most one, and more will never be given, after all, there are only 1,000 copies at present, and the number is really not much.

At first, when people saw the newspaper, they didn't think it was just some paper with words printed on it, but after reading the contents, they were gradually attracted to it.

The content of the first edition was written by Emperor Li Longji, and the second page was written by several princes, looking at these articles, the people of the capital gradually understood that the rumors circulating in the capital recently were deliberately spread by assassins, the purpose was to drive a wedge between the Tang monarchs and ministers, so as to bring down the Tang Empire.

After reading the articles of the emperor and the princes, the people of the capital began to scold the Tibetan assassins for being shameless, and even decided to supervise each other, as long as they found that someone was spreading rumors, they would immediately send them to the yamen.

And then the back page, is the recent anecdotes in the capital, some of these anecdotes are known to them, some are not clear to them, or they don't know enough details, and some of them have been spread and changed their taste, and they have been reversed in the article, these anecdotes are the most interesting to bored people, after all, there are still a lot of gossipy people.

Then there is the beautiful article published by the geniuses of the capital, because the newspaper was published for the first time, there was no official request, and the content was relatively small, but it was simply printed a few beautiful poems that Li Bai had written, and it was dealt with in this way.

Finally, there is the serialized novel written by Ang Lee, the first episode of the Legend of the Condor Heroes, and some advertising content in the gaps between the various editions.

After reading the newspaper, many people in the capital have a strong interest in the newspaper, the articles of the emperor and the princes meet the needs of the people to care about state affairs, and the anecdotes in the capital meet the people's needs for gossip.

In the Zichen Hall of the palace, Li Longji approved a few copies of the book, and felt a little tired, so he put down the book and asked the little eunuch to bring the newspaper that was sent to the palace early in the morning to read.

"Everyone, the old slave just read some, this newspaper is really good, it's worth reading."

Gao Lishi got up earlier than Li Longji, and when he was idle, he watched some of them, and he thought it was quite interesting.
