Chapter 367: Tokai Weekly (Page 1/1)

After more than half a month of careful preparation, the "Donghai Weekly" under the auspices of Su Ziheng finally completed the first issue of the sample issue.

In fact, Su Ziheng had already edited the content of the weekly report, and he was about to print it. Most of the month was spent on the engraving of movable metal type and the modulation of ink, and at the same time, craftsmen began to study the process of mass production of white paper.

In this era, there has been a high-quality rice paper on the market, but unfortunately the price is very expensive, and the price of a good and white rice paper is dozens of dollars, and it is not a family use.

If rice paper is used as the carrier of "Donghai Weekly", Su Ziheng estimates that before he starts making money, he will lose all his money. No matter how high the advertising fee is, it will not make money from rice paper.

Therefore, Su Ziheng plans to transform the process of papermaking to make its raw materials cheaper and cheaper, even if the quality of the paper produced in the end is not as good as that of rice paper. As long as it is not such fragile and yellowed paper, when the time comes, he will be satisfied with the words that can be printed, and he will be satisfied with the rest of the follow-up.

After Zhong Qinghan took over the sample issue of "Donghai Weekly" from Su Ziheng, he was immediately attracted by the content of the newspaper.

Open the front of the newspaper, and write "Donghai Weekly" in large block letters. Zhong Qinghan recognized at a glance that this was written by herself, she didn't expect Su Ziheng to carve out these four words, and it became the main topic. This made her feel a little happy in her heart.

Next to it is the calendar, but only the time of the week is indicated, so that people who read the newspaper can check the time.

At the bottom of the calendar are some major events that happened some time ago, of course, the public is allowed to know, and some confidential information will not be easily revealed.

The first issue of the weekly report on the major news written by Su Ziheng is about the incident of the weather controller, saying that this is a treasure given by the dragon god, and after this treasure, Donghai Province will no longer be afraid of the destruction of typhoons in the future, and at the same time, it can also predict the weather conditions in the coming week.

The hundreds of words sprinkled on it are very inspiring, so that everyone who has seen it is proud of being a native of Donghai Prefecture.

Then Su Ziheng also spent a piece of space to introduce the recent situation of Donghai Mansion, and reported all the projects that are currently underway, so that the people of Donghai Mansion would not be smeared in front of them, and the situation was not clear.

Su Ziheng knew that if he wanted a person to have a sense of belonging, he would naturally know a lot of things about Donghai Mansion, and only the more he knew, the deeper his feelings would be.

Su Ziheng plans to make the beautiful Donghai into a column, introducing a place in each issue, so that everyone can unconsciously feel the great changes in Donghai Mansion, so as to love Donghai Mansion from the bottom of their hearts.

The content of the first issue is the Donghai Mansion, which is the first building built in the Donghai Mansion, and can also be called the landmark building of the Donghai Mansion, and it is also the place that tens of thousands of people in the Donghai Mansion are most proud of, because even the Mansion of Chang'an, the capital of Great Xia, is not as majestic as it comes.

In addition to these three major contents, the first page also published some important notices from the government.

On the second page, there is a knowledge popularization version, in addition to popular science knowledge, there are also a lot of life knowledge and agricultural and technical knowledge, so that readers can really learn a lot by reading the newspaper.

In this issue of knowledge introduction, Su Ziheng introduced the newly planted crops in detail, especially several new varieties of sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other vegetables and grains.

He gave a detailed description of what they look like, how much they yield and how they taste. In order to better promote them, Su Ziheng even wrote a few classic recipes about them in the newspaper, and he spared no effort.

At the end, he also put an advertisement for Zhang Wanqing's upcoming fast food restaurant, saying that there are all kinds of delicious dishes waiting for everyone to taste. These new crops are not only delicious and inexpensive, but also easy to make, so everyone is welcome to come and try them and give them a variety of opinions.

The third and fourth editions were filled with anecdotes, poems, articles, etc., as well as advertisements and recruitments.

……

Zhong Qinghan carefully watched the "Donghai Weekly" back and forth several times, and finally said with great joy: "Ziheng, your newspaper is very good, it is too unexpected for me, I am very satisfied, so I will continue to do it like this." ”

Su Ziheng smiled: "Then how many copies do you plan to issue in the first issue?" ”

Zhong Qinghan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then asked rhetorically, "How much do you think is appropriate?" ”

Su Ziheng said: "Otherwise, if a thousand copies are issued for the time being, I estimate that it should be about the same." Any more would be a waste, after all, there are not many people in Tokai Province who can read the newspaper now. If the follow-up response is good, we will start to add additional shares from the second issue. ”

Zhong Qinghan clapped his hands and said, "Okay, just do what you think." The first issue will issue 1,000 copies to test the waters, and when the time comes, each unit of the government will come to the first one, so that they can develop the habit of reading newspapers. ”

Su Ziheng thought for a while and said: "If this is the case, we can open a column in the weekly newspaper for readers to put forward their opinions, whether it is for the newspaper itself or for the government's management policies, as long as the opinions are pertinent, we can accept and adopt them." ”

Zhong Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Your method is good, one person is short, ten people are long, there are always many hermit masters in the people, we can let them give their opinions through this method." ”

After a pause, Zhong Qinghan continued: "Even if we can do this, if there are any major decisions made by the government in the future, they can be published in the newspaper now, so that the public can participate in the discussion, and then we can collect relevant information, maybe we can avoid many detours." ”

Su Ziheng nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, his proposal just now already had a place for the public to have a voice. In this way, there will be no monopoly situation in which one company dominates, and there will be no phenomenon of one word.

Otherwise, even if he can ensure the smooth development of Donghai Mansion when he is there, what about more than ten or decades later? Can you always promise that you won't make any mistakes?

You must know that the more powerful a person is, the slightest mistake made by him will have a significant impact on the people of a country or a region.

In order to ensure that mistakes are not made, it is necessary to have people who supervise and to allow the broad masses of the people to have a channel to participate in and discuss state affairs. The Tokai Weekly serves such a purpose, giving a mouthpiece to those who are unwilling or unqualified to participate in politics.

For this reason, it doesn't matter if the Donghai Weekly wants to expand the layout of Su Ziheng in the future, after all, this is for the sake of the century-old plan of the Donghai Mansion in the future.

Even Su Ziheng gave Zhong Qinghan an opinion, not to be convicted of words, and not to engage in literary prison. No matter what other people say, they will not be convicted on this basis.
