Chapter 120: Close Tightness
"I, a senior police official, cut the ribbon for you, the big guy of the Black Society!"
"Ho!"
"What do you think!"
Wang Xuan's face darkened, "No, haven't we all said it!" I'm a serious businessman, no matter how black you are, I'll turn my face with you! ”
"The key, you are this image in front of the public! Is this something I can change by saying a word? ”
"That's why I'm going to turn my image! The company is regularized, please go and cut the ribbon! ”
Huang Zhicheng was angry, pointed at Wang Xuan and said, "Co-author, you want the police to take the blame for you!" ”
"Correct the name, correct the name! I have changed my ways, and this is called the prodigal son's return to the gold! Do you know what the art of language is, a former black and astringent gangster, under the influence of the police boss Huang Zhicheng, put down the butcher knife and became a businessman, what a perfect story! This is also a kind of effect of the police's work! ”
What the hell put down the butcher's knife and become a businessman! Huang Zhicheng rolled his eyes angrily.
"Who believes!?" Huang Zhicheng looked at him with a rare seriousness and said solemnly.
Wang Xuan frowned, this is also something he is irritable, bleaching does not mean that he will no longer be involved in black, if he can't reverse his image among the public, then everything is useless!
If the public still thinks you are a gangster, then even if you are bleached, it will still be easy for the government to move you, because your reputation is too bad.
If the people think that you have come ashore and are an influential and legitimate businessman, the government wants to move you, you have to think carefully about the influence of public opinion.
After pondering for a while, it seems that he needs to control some public opinion channels!
At this time, Wang Xuan secretly scolded himself for being stupid, a visitor from later generations actually forgot the importance of the weapon of public opinion, shouldn't it!
However, since you think about it, then everything is not a problem!
raised his head and looked at Huang Zhicheng, "If there is a channel to help us publicize it?" Full positive propaganda and public opinion guidance? Are you going to cut the ribbon for me! ”
"Oh, why do you have to look for me!"
"We have a good relationship and cooperation, besides, it doesn't hurt you to gradually expand my influence, at the very least, when the security company reaches my first goal, it can ensure that in the area under my control, public security is one of the best places in the world."
"Okay! You get the public opinion first, don't let me cut the ribbon for you, the whole world is full of police and bandit collusion, officials and bandits, what kind of messy public opinion bombardment, then the special Lao Tzu will kill you, understand! ”
"I understand your concerns! This shouldn't be difficult, I'll contact you after it's done, and the opening will be postponed! ”
Wang Xuan stood up directly, "Okay, I'm leaving!" ”
"Let's go, annoying!"
Huang Zhicheng drove him out as if he was sending him off the plague god.
Coming out of the police station, Wang Xuan got in the car and left, and a group of people on the first floor of the police station talked again.
On the way, Wang Xuan was thinking about the control of public opinion, and he remembered a person, Uncle Shao, don't look at the assets in Hong Kong, but the influence is unusually large, the name of the lord is not called casually, even if the British government in Hong Kong is polite to him.
TVB has no chance, at least not now, ATV has a chance, but now he has no money and can't afford to play.
Television has no chance, the Internet has not yet developed, and the traditional media is left with newspapers, so it is a good idea to control several newspaper agencies.
As soon as he returned to the office, Wang Xuan called several of his right-hand men over, Ah Wei, Zhou Kun, Zhu Libo, a group of people waiting for Wang Xuan's orders.
"Mobilize all your forces, find me which newspapers in Hong Kong are losing money, or if they are ready to sell, I will buy a few newspapers."
Everyone didn't know how Wang Xuan had new ideas, but they were all used to it, and the boss was always like this.
After sending everyone away, Wang Xuan called the headhunting company again, first, they were more well-informed, and second, they were ready to find professionals to operate better after the newspaper was bought.
Although he doesn't make a few dollars from the newspaper, it doesn't matter if he loses less, but he must make an impact.
More people is more power, this must be acknowledged.
All kinds of news came back one after another, and Wang Xuan also deliberately found an old man who retired from the newspaper to learn some relevant information.
In less than three days, the materials of almost all the newspapers in Hong Kong were on his desk.
There were four people in the office, a retired editor-in-chief, two working tabloid reporters, and one serving editor of a mid-sales newspaper.
This is a temporary think tank invited by Wang Xuan, plus a financial lawyer Zhu Libo by his side, seven people began to analyze this stack of information.
There are five companies that are doing well, with daily sales of more than 50,000 copies, and these are put aside, those with medium circulation, and those with daily sales of 50,000 to 10,000 copies are put aside, and the rest of the tabloids are set aside.
Initially screen out those who are doing well, and then screen out those who are mainly sexual/erotic, gambling, and the rest of the selection of some with relatively high credibility.
Finally, after a comprehensive evaluation, Wang Xuan chose three daily newspapers with a circulation of about 10,000 as the main targets.
All three of them are engaged in local news, international news, mainland news, current affairs and politics, economy, film and television, stock market, gold market, real estate, and horse racing.
These are the things that Hong Kong citizens are most concerned about every day, and if we buy all these three newspapers and integrate their resources, it will not be a problem to create a medium-sized newspaper with a daily sales volume of more than 20,000 copies.
After the target was selected, he began to take direct action, and the first group of interviews was with lawyer Zhu Libo, mainly to ventilate to the shareholders of several newspapers, and although the three newspapers were in a state of loss, they did not hear that they had any intention of selling.
Sure enough, the result of the trial made Wang Xuan very angry.
As soon as the two families heard that it was a black meeting, they refused directly without thinking about it, and the other one made an offer, but it was obvious that Wang Xuan was used as a Kaizi.
There is only one meaning, a group of subordinates of the Black Society also want to contaminate the cultural position of the newspaper, which is simply insulting!
These guys who are dying to themselves need some means!
Theoretically, the newspaper itself is worthless, and the employees are not valuable, only the name of the newspaper is valuable.
Because he represents the exposure of more than 10,000 people every day, and the credibility of the name itself!
According to the data given by the asset appraisal company that Wang Xuan found, the value of these three newspapers is not much different, they are all about 3 million, and if some debts are counted, the price may be lower.
In terms of price, Wang Xuan will not only not give less money, but will also buy at a premium, this kind of handle he doesn't want to fall behind.
Since Zhu Libo's first visit, he has not appeared, nor has he made a single phone call, but 24 hours a day, a large number of thugs wander at the door of the newspaper, from reporters to editors to bosses, and some people are close to him 24 hours a day.
I don't beat you, I don't scold you, I just follow you and watch you.
When you eat, he stands on the side and watches, staring at you pouring water, staring at you picking up vegetables.
When you go to the bathroom, he squats at the door, observing whether you bring paper or not.
This is a kind of mental torture, and it is useless to call the police.
Within three days, some employees couldn't stand it and wanted to resign.
Interestingly, the boss agreed to resign, but the younger brother who was close to him did not agree, he had to go to work, and the whole family was forced to do so if he didn't go to work.
The newspaper was on the verge of collapse.
