This time, he quickly recruited enough of the eighty people that Li You needed, but these eighty prisoners needed to be reindoctrinated. If it is not reformed ideologically, God knows if the newspaper will become an eight-strand digest.

In these years, there was no journalism major, so Li You had to go into battle in person, using the half-hung concept from the impression of his previous life to fool the newcomers in the newspaper industry. In the courtyard of the newspaper office, after gathering the candidates, Master Li began a course.

In the face of the black oppressive head, Li You is not stage frightened, and has been exercising in the officialdom for a long time, this scene is trivial, and it is not the first time that Li You has talked about newspapers with prisoners.

He coughed and began to lecture: "First of all, you must be clear, who is the newspaper for? I will tell you that the newspaper is for fools! And you are the chief writer and editor-in-chief who teach stupid people how to understand the truth! You must be convinced of this yourself, and if you want to devote yourself to the cause of teaching fools, you need to be determined! ”

Li You's statement made all the prisoners feel refreshed, who doesn't want to boast of being an elite and becoming a master?

In fact, after studying for so many years, what they want most in their hearts is to be officials, but if the opportunity to be an official is not good, it is not bad to be the chief writer and editor-in-chief of this newspaper in desperation. If the situation described by Master Li can come true, it seems that he can also become a person who controls public opinion from above.

"Actually, we are historians! Newspapers on the car on the old stuff, but the things that happen in the recent! What we have to do is to take notes on what is happening, the so-called writing of spring and autumn, spicy articles! As the years go by, this will become a supplement to the history books! ”

"In addition, our newspaper will be presented to the Imperial Gazette! Your words may be seen by the Son of Heaven! And after each issue of the newspaper is printed, it will be delivered free of charge to all yamen, shop chiefs, famous restaurants, all hotels, and all shops in Qipan Street, Bell and Drum Tower, Chongwen Gate and other places in the capital within one day! Tens of thousands are expected! If you write a word in a newspaper, at least 10,000 people will read it, and tens of thousands of people will listen to it! ”

Li You desperately exalted the status of the newspaper and described a bright future, in order to satisfy the vanity of the prisoners he had recruited, and the scholars were always eating and killing. How can literati become famous without praising each other? Putting it in the newspaper office, not to mention that it is useless to praise the newspaper, at least it is conducive to summoning up the confidence of the people in the crucial opening period, maintaining people's satisfaction and the stability of the team.

After talking about the importance of participating in the newspaper industry and the prospects of this newspaper, Li You began to introduce technical issues in detail. "One of the pages is mainly to discuss the government or write about the affairs of the court. The topic may be self-picked, or the topic may be chosen by the newspaper. Waiting for you to discuss, the manuscript can be published in the newspaper if it is good!

It is said to be a discussion, but in fact it is a criticism, all kinds of affairs can always find mistakes, and picking out a mistake requires the court to think deeply for a quarter of an hour! ”

Someone asked: "We have no power and no power, and we criticize the government at will." It is easy to cause all kinds of accidents. ”

Li You applauded: "Well said! Therefore, the official has set up three chapters of the covenant, and I hope that you will abide by it. One is that the language cannot involve the king; second, it is not allowed to insult and slander ministers of three grades or above; It is not allowed to promote the things prohibited by the Ming Law. Other than that, it should be fine!

Ruoer and others are still not at ease, and in addition to criticism, they can still post a defense as a foil. There are depreciations and praises, and in contrast, they appear to be impartial, so that others can't say anything! ”

The second part of the layout is mainly the state of the capital, which is probably the story of the people and the families of the powerful officials. Something to write. Just remember to focus on two words! Murder and erotica! ”

"What two words?" The prisoners were in an uproar, thinking that they had misheard.

"You heard me right! One is murder, the other is eroticism, and the people like to watch these! Of course, the official does not mean to promote both, but we need to engage in critical reporting!

The official should popularize legal knowledge to the people through homicide and erotic cases, so that the people know the serious consequences! So after writing about the incident, add a few sentences of argumentative criticism to let the reader know that it is wrong!

Large and small cases often have to go through the Terracotta Division. Therefore, this officer intends to rely on the five divisions of soldiers and horses. Set up five newspaper stations, the picture is the convenience of news. ”

A person of understanding. It is as if I have realized some kind of truth in the dark.

"The third part of the layout is business news, this doesn't need to be too focused, it's all wrapped up in this official! If you are interested, I have no objection! ”

"The fourth page is dedicated to interesting stories in Kyushu, new things outside the capital. Therefore, the official should also set up a reporting station at the Chongwenmen tax customs to facilitate communication with foreign merchants. By the way, there are a lot of red-haired ghosts in the capital? If you are proficient in Chinese characters, you can also ask them to write a few articles for publication! ”

In the end, Li You said: "In general, ten chief writers are stationed in each of the five cities of the Beijing Division, who are responsible for the news of each shop. Ten people are stationed at the Chongwenmen Tax Customs, responsible for collecting materials! The rest remained in the newspaper as editors-in-chief. ”

At this time, a twenty-eight or nineteen-year-old prisoner stood up and questioned Li You's statement: "Listen to Lord Li, most of the main writers have to be scattered in the streets and alleys, like three aunts and six mothers-in-law to inquire about the news? Forgive me, I really can't do this. ”

Li Youyan's mouth was dry, and he lowered his head to drink tea while analyzing his performance. Suddenly hearing that someone demolished the stage like this, I couldn't help but be angry!

Originally, it was not easy for him, an unofficial newspaper, to recruit a large number of prisoners, and he tried his best to achieve his wish, but on the first day, he suddenly reached such a corrupt atmosphere.

The atmosphere and mood are contagious, and if he is allowed to spread a negative atmosphere, I am afraid that the hearts of the entire newspaper will be damaged.

He must be taught a lesson! Li You quietly put the teacup back on the table, saw the name of the prisoner on the list, pondered for a moment, and lightly deleted the person's name.

After that, he said to the prisoner in full view of everyone: "Okay, you go to the ministry to report, and you can choose the county edict in Guizhou, Yunnan." ”

The other seventy-nine prisoners were in an uproar, and only then did they remember that Li You was not only the big proprietor of the newspaper office, but also the Guozi superintendent who was in charge of the atmosphere, and had a certain amount of power to allocate prisoners. The prisoner who is already on the list wants to play personality in front of him, which is tantamount to looking for death!

The prisoner who stood up panicked, he couldn't let go of his body and went down to the grassroots level, so he wanted to leave, but he really didn't want to go to Guizhou, Yunnan, thousands of miles away to be a teacher!

Then he begged Lord Li for mercy, but Master Li ignored him and only talked to everyone: "You will soon find out that newspapers are an infinite mystery! As long as you are willing to listen to me, I promise that you will not change it if you feel that you will be given a small official position! ”

At this time, the seventy-nine main writers and editors-in-chief did not believe it and did not succeed.
