The press conference on September 7 ended quietly, and despite the repeated demands of Fellowe and Samuel to his subordinates, someone passed it on.

Soon, the whole school knew that the new content had been prepared.

But fortunately, the people who stole away still had the bottom limit and didn't do everything perfectly, so the students only knew that there was such a thing, and they didn't know what the specific content was.

Just as they were about to unleash their imaginations, a new storm was coming.

On September 18th, the 60th issue of "Bignius" was released, followed by the high-profile second installment.

……

……

Nancy Gibbs is an editor at Magic Daily.

As a top student who graduated from Jialan Business School with honors 3 years ago, he has also served Samuel and others.

Remember that copy of The Naked Lambs? The idea was originally proposed by Samuel, but the work of how to implement it, as well as how to enrich and improve the content, was left to Nancy.

There is no doubt that the latter has completed the task perfectly, otherwise with the minds of those nobles, this thing would not have been to the point of alarming the school authorities.

To some extent, it was "The Naked Lamb" that almost became a popular reading material for the whole school, which made the school can't help but intervene.

And in return for the deal, after graduating, Nancy was introduced by Samuel to the Magic Daily, a place of his dreams, where he realized his dreams.

And then he hit a wall.

As a very thoughtful young man, he seemed very unusual in the Magic Daily.

The air there was rigid and stiff, and Nancy thought she would drop a fly in it and fly out three days later with its wings beating a fixed beat......

In the past three years, he has come up with many ideas, one of which is a good idea from The Naked Lamb.

One day, when he and a colleague named Hefner came out of the famous Smoke Willow Lane in Copper Fire Lane, they talked about their experiences and mentioned several famous "goblins" in the city of Falan, during which Hefner told him that many nobles did not know much about the women here, so much so that they made many jokes, which reminded Nancy of "The Naked Lambs".

He then spent the night discussing with Hefner the idea of running a monthly magazine to introduce the warblers, which was the area of greatest interest to men.

He planned to use the most seductive magical video clips of the famous girls in Tonghuo Lane as the cover, and the monthly magazine was mixed with pictures that he wanted to see as long as he was a man, but in fact, these things were just embellishments, and the main content was to introduce popular consumption such as clothing, food and drink around Tonghuo Lane and Falan. In this way, it does not violate the law, but also collects a promotion fee, and when the name is typed, it can also do personal interviews for individual nobles, etc.

If Mu Yan heard this, he would definitely be speechless by this guy...... Isn't this Lokan's version of Playboy!?

However, it is a pity that the top management of "Magic Daily" is a group of illiterate old guys, and this genius's idea was dismissed, and the group of old antiques scolded him for pure whimsy, and he was already crazy to see women's bodies.

In desperation, Nancy had no choice but to abandon this plan.

Later, he tried to open up a market on campus, but he was still rejected, and the old men said that the college was a desert of newspapers, and that they had tried it before, and they didn't need to try again, and scolded him.

Nancy is finally angry this time, what are you kidding? Why are you sure that if you fail, I will fail? That's obviously your wrong method!

He wanted to reply to his boss like this more than once, but considering that people always have to eat, he endured it and put the idea on hold for the time being.

It wasn't until a few months ago, when he first heard "Bignius," that his long-dormant thoughts came back to him.

Like Mu Yan, he knows his group very well, young people.

He knows better than anyone that the younger generation likes to be different, to follow trends, and to abandon them quickly.

As a result, young people have a lot of ideas, and it seems very cheap to spend effort on them, so the Magic Daily focuses on the old aristocrats who don't know how to change.

At first, he also thought that "Bignius" was doomed to fail, and that the price of 1 gold coin per copy was destined to lack a market, and that it would not be able to survive without enough money. Second, the newspaper did not have a distinctive characteristic, and offended the aristocracy, so it was not attractive in the academy at all.

But who knew that with the passage of time, the Youyue Workshop miraculously gained a firm foothold, and developed more and more into a behemoth, and its influence even radiated outside the school.

Instead of catering to the tastes of the students, the Moon Workshop has created something that they all love! This was far more than Nancy had expected.

He has worked hard, and the continuous student status has also come in handy. Whenever Bignius is released, he squats around to study changes in content and sales, and pretends to be an employee of the Moon Workshop to interview buyers and do market research......

The more he went deeper, the more he felt that this Oriental named Mu Yan was unfathomable.

The other party has simply figured out the psychology and the market to the extreme, and has a set of meticulous plans from the very beginning, which is carried out in an orderly manner, whether it is the open and secret battle with Kane's horn, or the means to deal with that group of nobles, it can be called clever.

But among them, only the "bonus" is a little thankless.

First of all, it is given away for free and the cost is too high.

Nancy had researched that the cost of a bonus would have to be offset by the sale of at least 50 newspapers, and that it should not have such a high practical value as a gift that is more monumental than anything else.

Secondly, the content of the bonus is mostly linked to the serialized "Song of Frost and Fire". This meant that if the writer named Eric was poached, the newspaper, along with the bonus, would lose its soul. This is a fatal injury, after all, the writer named Eric is not Mu Yan, the founder of the Moon Workshop, the two are just working together, even if they are close, there will always be a day when they part ways.

Finally, and most crucially, there are the strict requirements for obtaining bonuses.

It requires readers to buy one issue without landing so that they can get the bonus, and this alone will make fewer and fewer people get the bonus. For now, the meaning and importance of the bonus is mostly "praised", and if there are no people who cheer it, then it will become a joke.

A total of 477 copies of the first issue of bonuses were distributed, and you only need to look at the results of this issue to see if you can.

The purpose of his visit today is to count the second batch of bonus winners, and he has written a report on his research in the past few months, and only this last data is missing.

As soon as the number of second issues plummets, he will be able to return to HQ with the full report, convince the higher-ups with this proven theory, and then use his ideas to replicate the miracle of "Bignius" in the city of Falan, and make his name in the history of "Magic Daily".

He seemed to have heard the reluctant sighs of the stubborn old men.

One morning and one noon, for five hours, Nancy squatted here against the sun, and her eyes didn't dare to blink.

The kiosk opened six times, and in just 10 minutes each time, 3,000 copies of the newspaper were sold out without a single penny, and the speed was almost uniform during this period.

"Compared with the last 7 sales processes, the positive and negative errors are no more than 5 minutes."

Nancy wiped the sweat from her forehead and began to count the bonuses.

"It should be a lot less than the last time......" he thought.

Because he didn't have time to count, he kept it by drawing a bar.

After a cursory count, the sweat on Nancy's forehead broke out irrepressibly.

"Wait...... I must have miscounted, do it again. ”

He reluctantly counted it again.

478？

He laughed to himself at the sight of this number.

"No way, something must have gone wrong this time. Certain. ”

Third time......

477。

Fourth pass......

Halfway through the fourth count, Nancy gave up.

"No one is left behind." He muttered.

"Not a single one...... Not a damn person is left behind......"

"Shit! Damn it! ”

Nancy threw her fist at the tree, which was bounced off by the Green Defense Enchantment, causing a burst of laughter.

But he turned a blind eye to his embarrassment and the laughter in his ears.

It's no accident that in a long cycle of up to three months, it's impossible for every bonus winner not to experience distractions and difficulties......

But they all overcame.

Just as a person who is passionate about throwing a birthday party can't mistake his age, it represents a kind of attention.

So...... I was wrong?

Yes, you are wrong, completely wrong......

This theory is wrong!

You've been doing it wrong for six months!

He lowered his head weakly, feeling his body being emptied, and there was no strength left.

At this moment, a hand was handed to him.

Nancy looked up.

It's Mr. Gawain.

He knew the other party, and when he was planning to get the newspaper office that had been abandoned by Barry and the others, he contacted other merchants in the Demon Nexus District, including the director of the Horn of Kane.

"You're from the Magic Daily, right? I remember you. ”

"I know you too, Your Excellency Gawain, and I heard that you are now working for Mu Yan. What, are you here to humiliate me? Nancy stood up, her tone resistant.

Gawain smiled, "Of course not, I know Professor Ian, and he mentioned you, praised the article you made in your third year, and claimed that if anyone in the Magic Daily could be aware of the rise of Bignius, it would be you, and now it seems that he was right." In fact, I've noticed you since the release of the third issue of the newspaper, and thank you for making a guest appearance on our staff. ”

Nancy looked down and laughed.

"Professor Ian ......"

He thought back to the old man who had helped him a lot, and if it weren't for the "The Naked Lamb", the relationship between the two might have been closer......

But people always have to compromise with life.

"So what?" He looked up, "Your Excellency still said that this is not a humiliation?" ”

"No, I'm just here to clear up a mystery for you." Gao Wendao: "Are you curious, why there is no change in the number of people when the second phase of the bonus is released?" ”

"Yes, but I know the answer, those people have overcome a lot of difficulties, your newspaper is important to them, congratulations, you have succeeded."

"No, no, no, you're wrong, Mr. Gibbs." Gawain shook his finger, "I can guarantee that there must be personnel changes among the 477 places, but because the value of the bonus itself cannot be ignored, even if there is a personnel change, its 'right to obtain' is retained, or it is not allowed to be interrupted." ”

Nancy couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?" ”

Gawain motioned for him to sit down, sat down on his own, stretched out his hand and gestured: "First of all, you have to understand that the current price of a bonus on the Gray Street Black Market is 350 gold coins - this is the first issue, and the second issue will be higher, because with the first issue as a foreshadowing, there are more competitors this time."

"Let's put it this way, as someone who has witnessed the sale of almost most newspapers, you should know better than me how serious the phenomenon of substitution is, and even how serious it is, right?"

"Yes, and you don't seem to have ever taken care of that?"

"Yes, don't mind, it's a secondary market that's good for newspapers, and we're symbiotic." Gawain explained: "At the same time, this is why the number 477 has not changed. Those who have the right to obtain the second phase of the bonus see this permission as a sure investment, as long as the cost of the row is lower than the selling price of the second phase of the bonus, they will definitely be able to earn gold coins.

"At this point, the bonus is not a commemorative booklet, but a hard currency that holds its value longer than a gold coin, and have you ever seen someone throw money away at will—even if it's a silver coin? No, hard currency is the most valuable thing, and people would rather throw away a book bought with a silver coin than a copper coin, that's the difference.

"This group of people is aware of this, so they will sell it early and transfer it to someone else when they can't keep the 'right to get it'. So you get the idea? When the market is formed, even if someone wants to give up, there is a pair of invisible hands to take this thing and continue to keep it, which is a force majeure and an environmental effect. ”

Nancy listened quietly, her mouth a little dry.

He's just a nimble editor, and he really didn't think there was a story behind it.

"I hope you'll keep it coming out of quality...... This is worthy of the people who have been buying them. ”

"That's why we're always adding value to the paper." Gao Wendao: "For example, high-cost bonuses, such as the list schedule, and what you are about to see, the same creation platform." ”

Nancy's eyes lit up.

"Fan creation? What is that? ”

Gawain smiled slightly, and the guy in front of him had already taken the bait.

"Mr. Gibbs, have you considered changing jobs?"

Nancy was suddenly alarmed: "No one will voluntarily give up their job at Magic Daily, this is my dream." ”

"No, no, I didn't mean to insult your dreams...... And I know that the Moon Workshop can't be compared to the Magic Daily, and what I'd like to recommend to you is another organization...... Take, for example, the horn of Kane. ”

"Kane's Horn?" Nancy's breathing was rapid, but she came to her senses in an instant.

"How is that possible? You've even publicly criticized them in the newspapers......"

"There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. We're working together now, and you've only seen Bignius, and the people of Kane's Horn have only seen Seraf at first, but they don't see that the two are organically combined. So when they realized their mistake and offered to cooperate, Mr. Mu Yan asked them to run a copy of Smanius outside the academy. As you can tell from the name, this spearhead is aimed at the Magic Daily. ”

Gawain patted him on the shoulder: "Your research on "Bignius" and the Dark Moon Workshop will not be in vain, take your research and ideas to the Horn of Kane, with my recommendation, you will definitely be reused." There's no need to stay in that old, decaying place anymore, the bad old men of the Magic Daily are just a bunch of old aristocrats with half a foot in a coffin, a group of children waiting to divide their inheritance, and it's not fair that a young man with a brain and a capable person like you is treated as property, mixed up with rubbing slate, ink, and shares. ”

Nancy quietly clenched her fists, and Gawain's words entered his heart.

The current situation of the Magic Daily is as the other party said, there is no future in sight, but there is a lack of competitors in Fa Lan City, and they always think that "Bignius" is a flower in a greenhouse, and it will die once it leaves the academy, so there is no sense of worry.

"I'll think about it."

Nancy replied.
