Chapter Seventy-Six: The Newspaper Agency
Wang Fuzhi and Fang Yizhi were the editors-in-chief of Jinling Daily and the editor-in-chief of Readers' Monthly.
Wang Fuzhi is okay, and he conscientiously develops "Nanjing Daily" according to Zheng Chenggong's guidance.
Fang Yizhi entered the reader's monthly magazine, and it was really like a fish in water.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Fang Yizhi and Mao Xiang, Hou Fangyu, and Chen Zhenhui were collectively known as the "Four Sons of Jiangnan" and presided over the Restoration Society.
Now serving as the editor-in-chief of the monthly reader's magazine, Fang Yizhi broke out.
Talk to the scribes about the times, give pointers, and judge the heroes of the scribes.
Fang Yizhi's words are sharp, his writing is flying, and his evaluation of people is also to the point, and there are sometimes astonishing public opinions.
The scribes loved to read what he wrote.
Reader's Monthly Magazine is a hot seller!
Scribe students from all over the country are embarrassed to go out and talk to others if they don't buy a copy and take a look.
Even the Manchu rulers would secretly ask someone to buy a copy of the monthly perusal, and if they couldn't buy it, they would ask someone to copy it and send it over.
For a time, the reader's monthly Luoyang paper was expensive, and many times it had to be printed one after another to meet the sales.
Since serving as the editor-in-chief of readers, Fang Yizhi's reputation has skyrocketed, and he is faintly known as the world's number one talent!
Seeing that he could spread his reputation and get a good reward, Fang Yizhi really became more and more energetic.
Good guy, it doesn't matter if Fang Yizhi works so hard, Zheng Chenggong is depressed.
At the beginning, hearing Fang Yizhi openly accuse himself, Zheng Chenggong was also dissatisfied.
So he didn't even leave him the position of editor-in-chief of the daily newspaper, and he was sent to be the editor-in-chief of the monthly magazine.
Who knew that he did such a good job, started the monthly magazine, and steadily suppressed the daily newspaper.
What's worse is that Fang Yizhi didn't know what was wrong, so he recognized himself and often satirized himself in the monthly magazine.
The article written satirizing himself is applauded, the whole text is concise, in-depth and concise, rigorously structured, reasonable, and vivid.
After reading it, Zheng Chenggong wondered if he was the despicable villain described by Fang Yizhi, plus Zheng Chenggong, who was shameless and did not commit suicide and faced the world!
Zheng Chenggong was very depressed, and Fang Yizhi's broken mouth made people feel like they wanted to beat him.
Zheng Chenggong felt that Fang Yizhi was so annoying that he couldn't tolerate him to continue scolding himself.
But Zheng Chenggong didn't want to be infamous for killing a scholar because of his words, so as not to make the world think that he couldn't tolerate people.
……
In the editorial room of the Reader's Monthly, Qian Qianyi and Fang Yizhi stared, and the atmosphere was very stiff.
Fang Yizhi slapped the table and drank: "Impossible, I will never change my words!" ”
Qian Qianyi said with a straight face: "Fang Mizhi, don't be too stubborn. The general is your boss anyway, why do you satirize him in the monthly magazine all day long? ”
Fang Yizhi shouted with a righteous face: "The body is not afraid of the shadow!" If he Zheng Chenggong is above board, how can he be afraid of others saying it! ”
Qian Qianyi heard pointing at Fang Yizhi and said, "Then you are really unwilling to correct it!" ”
Fang Yizhi twisted his head and said: "The head can be broken, the blood can flow, it is absolutely impossible to let Fang Mou tamper with what he said!" ”
Qian Qianyi heard it and said lightly, "Okay, Brother Fang has such a backbone, and Qian is also a literati, so he can understand and understand your feelings." Don't worry, the old man will never be a villain to force you. It's just that you see, the general thinks that with your Fang Mizhi's talent, serving as the editor-in-chief of a weekly magazine is too wronged by your talent. I want to give you a heavy responsibility and transfer you to guard the farm. ”
"What farmstead? What a farmstead! Fang Yizhi was taken aback.
Qian Qianyi said expressionlessly: "Do you also know that after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, didn't they encircle a lot of land for the Han people? The general defeated the Manchus, and those fields naturally had to be recovered. In addition to giving back to the people, there are many terra nullius. The general used these fields as tuntian fields and handed them over to the poor people for cultivation. those who use official cattle will harvest six officials and four people; With a private cow, half of it. The three armies did not move, and the grain and grass went first. This tuntian is related to the grain and grass of our army, so the general wants to put one person in charge of these tuntians! ”
Qian Qianyi glanced at Fang Yizhi and said: "The general knows Fang Mizhi's great talent, and he cares about Daming, so he will entrust this important task to you, I hope Fang Mizhi will work hard and have a very promising future!" ”
When Fang Yizhi heard that Qian Qianyi was asked to revoke his position as editor-in-chief, his face turned red with anger, like a volcano, about to erupt at any time, and said coldly: "What about the Reader Monthly?" ”
Qian Qianyi didn't seem to see Fang Yizhi's anger, and said lightly: "Hehe, don't worry about Fang Mizhi, many people have asked the old man before if there is a vacancy in the editor of the Reader's Monthly Magazine!" At that time, because Fang Mizhi was the editor-in-chief, the old man did not agree to them. Now that Fang Mizhi is going to be transferred to be a pawn farmer, the old man will naturally find a suitable person to serve as a general. Hey, who should I look for? If there is no candidate for a while, the old man has to go into battle in person. It's tiring, but the work is needed! The old man is still old and strong, and it is okay to work overtime and stay all night. ”
There are as many scribes in Jiangnan as dogs, and they can kill one of them with a brick.
The scribes are light!
Many literati and scholars have long been jealous when they saw that Fang Yizhi could become famous with a small book and periodical.
Openly and secretly, there are countless people who go to Zheng Chenggong to hint that Fang Yizhi is too arrogant and not suitable for the position of editor-in-chief of the weekly magazine.
And I am also excellent in writing and have a wide range of people, I am the most suitable to be the editor-in-chief of the monthly reader's magazine, how about I take the role!
For such a person, Zheng Chenggong patted his chest and promised that as long as Fang Yizhi was wise, he would let you go immediately.
Fang Yizhi also heard a lot about these rumors, and when he heard that Qian Qianyi was going to withdraw his position, he was really panicked.
Fang Yizhi doesn't pay much attention to the reward, but he attaches great importance to the name.
Let everyone in the world see their name badge and let their name spread all over the world. This is simply the supreme glory of a literati.
This kind of thing, how can Fang Yizhi be willing to let go.
Seeing that Qian Qianyi was going to threaten with the position of editor-in-chief of the reader, Fang Yizhi wanted to smash the teacup on the table on Qian Qianyi's head several times, but he endured it.
Fang Yizhi took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Old Qian, the younger generation doesn't know about farming, but I'm afraid that it will be difficult to take on the heavy responsibility of the general of the farmer, and I also ask Qian Lao to explain to the general and choose someone else." As for the comment on the general in the monthly magazine, Mi Zhi pondered for a while, it was too mean and unfair, and Mi Zhi would apologize to the general! ”
This abruptly changed the editor-in-chief, and if the content of that monthly magazine did not satisfy those readers, it could easily cause public outrage.
Now it's just right, everyone takes a step back, and everyone is happy!
Qian Qianyi was very satisfied with Fang Yizhi's compromise and submission, nodded and said: "Mizhi can recognize his own shortcomings, which is very good!" As for the position of the general of the pawn farmer, the old man will explain it to the general, and the secret can rest assured! ”
Fang Yizhi arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qian!" ”
……
Although Fang Yizhi will no longer write articles criticizing and satirizing Zheng Chenggong, he is still unwilling to sing praises for Zheng Chenggong.
Fang Yizhi didn't sarcastically mock Zheng Chenggong anymore, and the others were unlucky.
When Fang Yizhi wrote an article satirizing Zheng Chenggong, he was a little worried.
For others, Fang Yizhi has no worries at all.
Shunzhi and Hong Chengchou of the Manchu Dynasty, Sun Kewang of the Great Western Army, Li Chengdong and Qu Shiyun of the Ming Dynasty all scolded him with blood.
Holding the latest reader's monthly magazine, Zheng Chenggong was very happy to see Fang Yizhi writing an article criticizing Hong Chengchou!
Yes, it's good-looking, next time you can ask Fang Yizhi to write it more exciting! (To be continued.) )
