Chapter 18

It's a magazine that's been out of business for a year or two.

In the past, this magazine was mainly responsible for disseminating information on major events in the current country or the military of other neighboring countries within the military.

This kind of magazine is really a bit of a magazine, it's more like a channel for information exchange.

In this war-oriented country, there are quite a lot of such magazines, and Zhang Youxing saw at least three magazines with war magazines as the suffix on the way into the city.

So how many will there be in the whole city?

If the commander of a country's army obtains such an industry, if he really wants to run it well, he can directly and completely monopolize all the subscriptions to magazines within the army, and only buy the magazines sold by his industry, so that all other war magazines have any ability to compete?

However, the general did not do this, but chose to release the magazine a little and disbanded it directly for more than half a year.

But even though the staff have been dismissed, the office is still there.

Kyleth saw that Zhang Youxing was interested in the magazine, so he couldn't help but say, "Mr. Youxing, are you interested in the magazine?" But this has already been bankrupted by my father, and I would suggest that you consider the button factory that our family is still running, it will be simpler. ”

"Well, I don't know anything about buttons, but I have a little clue about magazines."

What is the direction of development of buttons, Zhang Youxing, a former life otaku, is really not clear.

But in the magazine, Zhang Youxing has a lot of ideas in his mind.

He remembers that when he was a child, there was always a mobile magazine outlet in front of the school.

Every Wednesday, Zhang Youxing will be in front of the magazine sales point on time and wait for the latest issue of the comic magazine to arrive.

Later, the boss of the magazine knew Zhang Youxing, as long as Zhang Youxing had the intention of coming to the magazine, the boss of the magazine would decisively prepare a new issue of the comic magazine for Zhang Youxing, if it hadn't arrived that day, the boss would also remind Zhang Youxing that he hadn't arrived today before he crossed the road.

Every time I can read the latest issue of the comic magazine, Zhang Youxing's impression when he was a teenager is the same happy time as playing the latest popular game.

However, at that time, it usually took at least half a year to a year to come across a popular game, but comic magazines can bring something happy every week.

By the way, there is also popular software that will be sold on time every month, which is also Zhang Youxing's favorite magazine at that time.

But then the magazine also faced the situation of discontinuation, which is a pity and a pity.

He even fantasized that if he made a lot of money, he must let those comic magazines and popular software that were later discontinued as adults be re-sold, not for the sake of making money, but for simple feelings.

Obviously, it is almost impossible to do that kind of thing on Earth, and it is a problem to live on your own.

But in this world, it seems that this kind of thing can be done.

Zhang Youxing's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, Baron Kellreth doesn't understand why Zhang Youxing wants to keep an eye on a bankrupt magazine, and now War Magazine is basically monopolized by several other giants in the magazine industry, or does Mr. You Xing plan to develop the newspaper industry?

But the newspaper industry is also monopolized by a few giants, and if he had his father's prestige in the past, he would definitely still be able to get a piece of the pie.

But now that his father is under semi-house arrest by the regent in the palace, the slightly smarter nobles understand that their father is afraid that he will be more than lucky, who will give his father face and let them enter the magazine to get a piece of the pie?

There are even quite a few button factories that are ready to eat away at their button industry, and Baron Kelreth doesn't have to think about it to know that there must be a group of nobles secretly fueling the trouble.

But there was nothing he could do, he was really not a good businessman, let alone a good commander, and he had no influence at all.

Now he can only put all his hopes on Zhang Youxing, he really can't, he can only pray that Zhang Youxing forcibly rescued his father, but I don't know if Zhang Youxing will agree to his excessive request.

"Mr. Youxing, War Magazine and the newspaper industry have been monopolized by other giants, and it will be difficult for us to get involved." Baron Kelreth said seriously.

"War Magazine? Newspapers? No, no, no, I'm not interested in these things, and I don't want to do these magazines when I get a magazine. ”

"Then you are."

"Draw a comic."

"Comics?" Baron Kelles was puzzled.

This is a new term, and how many new terms did Mr. Youxing, who came from the Far East, surprise him?

Zhang Youxing said: "Don't tell me that your country doesn't even have such a thing as comics? ”

Baron Kelreth said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I don't even understand the meaning of the word comics." ”

"So, what about the album? Or comic strips? Picture? ”

Baron Kellreth continued to shake his head.

"Well, I'll show you, huh...... It's not that easy to draw a manga, but it should be okay to draw some simple storyboards for the time being. ”

Baron Kelles watched Zhang Youxing muttering to himself, and the hope that rose in his heart was slightly reduced.

It seems that he still expects too much from this strong man from afar, and the other party promises to help him, but whether he can help is really a question.

"Please give me an hour or so, and I'll show you, do you have paper and pen here?"

Baron Kelreth nodded, then pointed to a desk in the main hall and said, "Yes, it's on that desk, Mr. Youxing, you can use it as you like, by the way, sir, do you want to drink black tea or mead?" I'll pour you a glass by the way. ”

"Do you have any Coke here?" Zhang Youxing asked subconsciously.

"Well, I don't think so." Baron Kellreth didn't even know what Coke was.

He felt that it was really difficult for him to chat with Zhang Youxing, and there were always a bunch of words that he didn't understand.

"Then let's have a cup of boiled water, I'm a little unaccustomed to your black tea."

"Okay, please wait."

Baron Kellis then exited the main hall again, and Zhang Youxing came to the desk.

On the desk was a neatly arranged stack of clean white paper, and several pens of different shapes, such as quills, pens, and charcoal.

Zhang Youxing picked up a pen casually, then took a piece of white paper and began to scribble on it.
