Ten days have passed since Yin Minghong and Yin Yinyin met, and today the newspaper office has finally officially opened, and Mu Qingmei has finally gone to work - in fact, the hired person has been coming to work for several days, but only now has he recruited all people.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the third floor of the newspaper office was transformed into a large conference room, and the members of the newspaper were seated, and everyone hung a badge to indicate their positions.

Although it is a small newspaper that has just been established, the department arrangement is quite formal, divided into the news department, the comment department, the culture department, the editorial department, the distribution department, and the printing department. In this era when all aspects can only rely on manual labor, the editorial department is almost equivalent to the physical work in the brain, which requires the coordination of many people.

In addition, there is financial accounting, but this is naturally the Jing family sent someone to be responsible, and will not recruit externally.

Mu Qingmei was naturally hired, and her current position is 'Editor of the Ministry of Culture' - although she is indeed a small editor, it is too strange to name the position like this, right!?

This kind of naming must be Jing Zhengwei's bad taste, he is too disrespectful!

From the article full of malice but righteous and awe-inspiring in the editing exam, Mu Qingmei faintly realized that Jing Zhengwei was a cultural person among profiteers, a hooligan among cultural people, and the second ancestor of hooligans - arrogant, reckless, full of superiority, and he had never been beaten at first glance!

Mu Qingmei observed for a week and found that there is a big difference between the Youth Daily and other newspapers - excluding the coolie department of the editorial department, in other newspapers, they all have the most members of the news department and the comment department, but the Youth Daily has the most members of the culture department, and there are only two people in the news department and the comment department together - one for each of the two departments!

Just from the distribution of positions, Mu Qingmei knew that what Youth Daily wanted to publish was definitely not a current affairs newspaper. The most important thing for current affairs newspapers is timeliness, timeliness requires a lot of news reporters and commentary editors to support, and reporters are not enough, reporters also have to have informants, any news can be rushed as soon as possible, for example, "Xuan Candle Daily" is a current affairs newspaper.

Emphasizing culture over news, indicating that the Youth Newspaper is mainly a theme cultural newspaper, by publishing articles on a certain theme to attract attention, for example, "Zhanpai Bao" is to publish a variety of tactics of the card duel of detailed war reports and various routines of the war card - although the war card is relatively niche, but the people who play cards are diehard, and the war card newspaper is not cheap, so this newspaper is still alive and well.

Could it be that Jing Zhengwei plans to publish the kind of article in the whole newspaper, openly encouraging and secretly demagoguing? But the smell is too strong, and people will definitely feel physiologically uncomfortable if they see too much.

Just when Mu Qingmei was thinking nonsense, a man and a woman walked into the conference room. The woman is dressed in green clothes, with exquisite makeup, wearing glasses, and full of the temperament of 'poetry and books in her belly', but the bags under her eyes are slightly heavy, as if she is overworked.

The man is dressed in gorgeous clothes, his face is handsome, his eyebrows and hair are finely trimmed, and his whole body exudes a lazy and rich temperament. It's not the first time Mu Qingmei has seen him, but the more she looks, the more she feels that he is very much like the cat at home who doesn't do anything except eat, poop, bask in the sun, and don't catch mice all day long - is there really someone who lives as lazy as a cat these days?

Everyone in the conference room immediately stood up and said hello: "Hello editor-in-chief, good Jing Gongzi!" ”

The two people who came in were naturally the editor-in-chief of the Youth Daily, Qinglan, and the manipulator of the newspaper, Jing Zhengwei!

"Excuse me, sit down." Le Yu and Qinglan sat on the main seat of the conference table and said casually: "And you don't need to call me Jing Gongzi here, just call me the editor-in-chief." ”

Mu Qingmei looked at it, and saw that Leyu's badge was impressively written with five big characters: "Editor-in-Chief of the Ministry of Culture"!

The editor-in-chief is different from the editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief is responsible for the affairs of the entire newspaper, and organizes and leads the daily business work of the editorial department, coordinates the layout allocation, and transfers the interview manpower, while the editor-in-chief is only responsible for the newspaper's editorial related business. The former is the big steward who manages the entire newspaper, and the latter is the little steward who only manages the editorial department and the cultural department.

Theoretically, the editor-in-chief should follow the editor-in-chief's leadership.

However, everyone took a look and immediately understood Jing Zhengwei's thoughts.

This is something to do for the editor-in-chief, and nothing to do......

As for why Jing Zhengwei gave himself the position of 'editor-in-chief', everyone thought about it, most likely because this eldest prince wanted to experience the suffering of the people, and worked in the newspaper for a few days to observe the people's feelings, and it is estimated that a new editor-in-chief will be promoted in a few days.

And Jing Zhengwei is the [new] editor-in-chief, so he can find the editor-in-chief in the name of work, and then in the editor-in-chief's office with excellent sound insulation......

Many editors didn't know if they felt that they had the opportunity to become the editor-in-chief, or imagined some inappropriate pictures for teenagers, and their faces were flushed, looking at Jing Zhengwei and Qinglan with anticipation.

Le Yu was not polite, and asked directly in the posture of the person in charge: "Mr. Mustard, has it been arranged at the printing house?" ”

Mustard Husband, a middle-aged man in his forties, was actually the editor-in-chief of the newspaper "Xuan Candle" before, but later fell idle due to internal dumping. Hired by the Jing family, he almost did not hesitate to return to his old business - he was a middle class like him who had a good life but could not squeeze into the bourgeoisie, and unemployment affected him the most.

After all, Leyu is not a demon, and he is not ruthless enough to let Qinglan become the editor-in-chief from scratch. To play mobile games, you have to give a five-star operator/SR/cherished role, so Leyu Krypton has such an experienced old editor-in-chief, at least Qinglan can avoid many detours and successfully pass the novice period.

"It's ready, and the layout template has been preliminarily designed." Mustard replied respectfully: "As long as the article is submitted, then our side will be able to print the first issue of Youth Daily immediately." ”

Le Yu nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the people in the conference room, and said: "Okay, then I won't say much nonsense, since you come to the Jing family's newspaper, you should also know what kind of goods our Jing family is - let go of your literary ideals, let go of your reserved self-esteem, this is not a place for you to carry the word, just a factory that produces goods." ”

There was no reaction, and as Leyu said, they already knew what kind of job they were applying for. But then again, there is a Xuanzhu County in Nuoda, which can't accommodate a desk, and the scholars who really want to mess with the law with literature have long been sunk to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

"The tone of Youth Daily is an entertainment newspaper," Leyu knocked on the table: "Although it is in the name of youth, it is not only aimed at young people, but also teenagers, middle-aged and elderly people. We don't need to talk about current affairs, which is an issue that young people don't care about, but we need to publish the 'nutrition' they need and the 'reality' they care about. ”

"First of all, Lu Zhuqing." Leyu looked at the art editor: "Do you know how to draw color pictures?" ”

Lu Zhuqing was stunned, and he subconsciously asked, "What picture?" ”

"Color Picture."

"What is the color?"

"Color Picture."

"You mean red, blue, and yellow?"

Le Yu's face darkened: "If you make trouble again, I will let the security guard throw you down from the third floor." ”

Reading poetry and painting for more than 20 years, Lu Zhuqing, who is usually respected and polite, was so red that his face turned red: "But, what does that kind of picture have to do with newspapers?" ”

Le Yu slapped the table vigorously: "Of course it matters!" What kind of newspaper is this? Youth Daily! What do young people like best? Color Figure! If you want to attract attention and get young people to buy our newspapers, then of course you have to do it! And it's not just young people, middle-aged, and old people like it too, don't you like color pictures Lu Zhuqing!? ”

As soon as these remarks came out, everyone's faces changed slightly, several female editors were already blushing, and Mu Qingmei clenched her fists. That is to say, there have been no charges such as 'workplace harassment' in these years, otherwise Mu Qingmei would definitely flip the table directly and die with a fist.

And Lu Zhuqing was choked by Le Yu's words and couldn't answer, but Le Yu was already impatient: "Just say that you can't draw, I plan to publish pictures on the entire page on the first page, if you don't know how to draw, I have to ask for another master." ”

Insulting Sven!

Swain scum!

Dressed beasts!

Heaven is clear!

Heaven has no way, how can such a person be allowed to start a newspaper!

Lu Zhuqing's face turned pale with anger, he slapped the conference table with both hands, his eyes widened angrily, and he yelled at Le Yu with awe:

"I can draw!"

"If you know how to draw, you can draw, why are you yelling so loudly, sit down." Le Yu plucked his ears, "I'll tell you what to draw later...... By the way, is it now possible to print color newspapers? ”

Mustard shook his head: "No, only black and white." ”

After that, he tactfully advised: "Editor-in-chief Jing, if it is too vulgar, it may be boycotted by the upper class and affect the sales of the newspaper......

"Tsk, it's only black and white...... But black and white can also draw a lot of tricks. Le Yu felt a little pity, it seems that the young man who is bright and can't see the beautiful girl with blonde hair and double ponytail and heterochromatic pupils: "And don't worry, you, your understanding of color and pictures is still too superficial, you only know how to sell meat with your legs exposed, you don't know how magnificent the peak realm of color and picture art is that can easily seduce people's desires." ”

When Le Yu said this, his confidence and sense of superiority could hardly be concealed, overflowing. It was hard for him not to have a sense of superiority - after all, there were not as many color pictures in this world as he had seen in the past five thousand years.

Don't underestimate the color, bastard!

However, in the eyes of others, this has become another characteristic of Jing Zhengwei's lustful nature.

Like Mu Qingmei, she has changed from being angry to being a little afraid of Le Yu - how disgusting is it to say such things openly?

Hitting this kind of person, she thinks it will stain her fists.

However, Leyu quickly returned to normal: "Let me tell you about the specific plan of Youth Daily. ”

"Youth Daily" is expected to be composed of three 4-page sheets of paper, that is, a total of 12 pages, in order to attract attention, the first page must be published on the full page of high-definition large pictures, so that the middle-aged and elderly people of Xuan Zhu Qing can not open their legs when they see it;"

"On pages 2 to 4, I'm going to set it up as a 'knowledge forum'. I know you guys have a lot of questions, so I've got a template ready. ”

Leyu took out a piece of paper for everyone to circulate to each other, and everyone showed a surprised face after reading it, or suddenly realized, or surprised, and so on.

When Mu Qingmei took a look, she immediately understood why everyone reacted like this:

"What are we looking for in our lives?"

"Selected Answers—"

"Nietzsche (linguist, cultural critic, composer, thinker): Life has no purpose, only process, and the so-called ultimate goal is nothingness."

"Wang Luffy (Ordinary Scholar): Freedom.

We pursue money just to keep it from locking our hands;

We seek power just so that it doesn't get in our way;

We pursue knowledge only so that we don't let it bind our eyes;

We pursue health just so that we don't let it imprison us.

People are extremely poor all their lives, and all they pursue is to do what they want to do. Do the work you love, go to the place you like, stay with the people you like for the rest of your life, that's all."

"Edward Eric (Alchemist): In my industry, there is such a saying......

With just one glance, Mu Qingmei knew the value of this 'knowledge discussion forum' column: it allowed many people to express their opinions and discuss around a topic.

There are not no similar articles, and it can even be said that there are many, and many classics are quotations from the debates between the two, and there are also many writers, poets, and scholars who have made different answers around the same proposition in different eras.

However, these articles are difficult to attract the general public, because they are either master-apprentice dialogues or two-person debates, and there is always one view that is superior to the other, so reading the whole text is a kind of 'opinion output'. The output of opinions is not bad, but there is always a taste of preaching.

And those different discussions about the same proposition across the ages, the reading threshold is too high.

And the most important point, that is, the grammar of the previous articles does not conform to the modern grammar, even if it is translated, it feels weird and uncomfortable to read, not to mention the spring and snow in it, which is incomprehensible to the people of the lower riba.

The 'knowledge discussion forum' is to abandon the above shortcomings, synthesize all the advantages, and let the respondents discuss and answer around the same proposition with modern grammar.

Everyone is equal, we respect each other, no one is better than the other, as long as what you say is reasonable, then it deserves everyone's praise.

Mu Qingmei read multiple answers in a row, and she could clearly feel the collision of different worldviews.

She seems to be able to see many people gathered together, these people have different identities, different ages, different educational backgrounds, some are unknown, some are well-known in the world, but they all explain their different ideas for the same proposition.

The collision of knowledge.

The clash of values.

Collisions between people.

Mu Qingmei's body trembled slightly with excitement, and handed the paper to the editor next to him, and then the editor next to him also became excited.

After everyone finished circulating, Leyu asked: "What do you think of the 'knowledge discussion forum' model?" ”

"Good!"

"Very good!"

"It's an epoch-making feat!"

Even the steady mustard man couldn't help but clench his fists: "Editor-in-chief, your idea is really amazing!" I believe that as long as our "Youth Daily" starts to be published, the entire Dongyang District will ...... No, the whole Radiance will be watching us! The newspaper industry will change because of us! ”

Mustard Husband's words made everyone excited, and Leyu waved his hand: "How can it be so exaggerated, it would be good to sell well in Xuanzhu County." ”

At this time, Mu Qingmei asked, "Editor-in-chief, how does the knowledge discussion forum work?" We're going to talk about a few topics each week, and then we're going to find someone to answer them, and then we're going to find the best ones and publish them—"

Le Yu shook his head: "Why do you need to be so troublesome, I will come up with a few topics every week." Rest assured, it is definitely a topic that will cause readers to debate and ponder. ”

Speaking of attracting attention, how can the things discussed by more than a dozen of you be comparable to the hot topics screened out by UC editor Zhihu anglers in the big waves of gold panning on the Internet? Leyu casually recalls a 'if tomorrow is the end of the world', and I feel that everyone in this conference room will be sad and sad.

Mu Qingmei reluctantly accepted Leyu's 'arrogant' idea and asked, "What about the answer?" We've got to get someone to call for papers, right? ”

"You don't have to ask for a paper." Leyu stretched out his index finger and swiped across the room.

"All the selected answers, you make up your own."
