"Old Wu, what's the situation with this publishing house? Siya couldn't tell me anything when she called yesterday!" Coming to the office, Leng Lingfeng asked Wu Ma.

"Boss, this publishing house is called 'Beijing Tianyun Publishing House', its newspaper is "Beijing Life Newspaper", the main focus is on the people's life, the owner of the publishing house is one of my classmates Zhang Jiaqiang, the family has a little money, born and raised in Beijing, opened this company with the support of his parents, when he first opened the company, he also invited me, I did not agree, a few years of classmates, I know too much about his personality.

People are good people, affectionate and righteous, but it is limited to this, too old-fashioned, doing things in a decent way, such a character is destined for him to defend the city more than enough, lack of innovation, so I didn't agree at the beginning, I began to have the support of my family, and I can also reach the balance of payments, and I also published a few books with good grades, and the newspaper only focuses on the lives of the people, so he is destined to not become an atmosphere, and I also persuaded him at that time. It didn't work at first, and his exact words were to find another shortcut.

The results at the beginning were also good, but after more than 10 years, nothing has changed, and the results have become worse and worse, and they have been wandering in the middle and lower reaches of the publishing industry and newspaper industry in the capital, and they can't do it. Wu Ma said and took a sip of tea.

"According to you, the witch, although the results are not very good, they should not be sold! "After listening to Wu Ma's words, Leng Lingfeng was also very strange.

"It's not the family, his parents are old, the family is doing instant messaging on the Internet, you may also know, the current Internet bubble is getting more and more serious, it has reached the point where it is difficult, the competition is also big, there is a problem in the decision-making recently, a lot of money is owed, I wanted to sell instant messaging, but now in this situation, there is no one to take over, the bank is blowing more and more urgently, seeing that the time is up, there is no way to think of selling the publishing house. is also in urgent need of money, otherwise 8 million will not be able to buy. ”

"Instant messaging is going to be at a loss, I said Wu Ma, you're not kidding, are you!" Leng Lingfeng is simply messy in the wind, what kind of international jokes, how awesome QQ was in his previous life, you tell me now that you will lose money.

"Boss, how can I joke about such a thing, do you know how many instant messaging companies there are in Han now! Tell you more than 40," Seeing Leng Lingfeng's look of disbelief, he quickly explained.

"That's not a reason to lose money!"

"Boss, you take care of the children at home every day, you must not understand these, instant communication seems to be okay, but there is only a month a communication number of 2 yuan to receive people, you must know that the server that does communication is the big head, in addition to the expenses of employees, and others, there is no money at all, but also to manage well, if there is any decision wrong, there is only a loss of life. ”

"Why do you charge 2 yuan for instant messaging, don't you know it's free?"

"Boss, you're kidding! How can it be free, if so, why are they still opening a company? Isn't this idle panic! Spending money for everyone to use for nothing, and it's not a philanthropist who runs a company."

"You can earn it back from other places! Like opening a membership, advertising, advertising costs a lot!"

"Boss, it's okay to say this here, don't say it when you go out. Otherwise, others will laugh at it, the main function of instant messaging is to chat, who has nothing to do to open a member to play! Just a chat dialog box, how to get the advertisement......."

"Okay, don't talk about it, when is your classmate coming," Leng Lingfeng felt that he couldn't chat properly, what did he say! What he said had a successful case, but looking at it like this, if he went out to talk about it, it would make people be fools, and he was really kind and evil, so he didn't want to dwell on this topic anymore, so he quickly changed the topic.

"I'll take a look, it should be soon," Seeing that Leng Lingfeng didn't want to say it, Wu Ma didn't want to dwell on this matter, when he said it just now, he was really afraid that Leng Lingfeng's head would be hot, and he ran to get instant communication again, just like at the beginning. Martial Arts Reading Network' is the same, there is nothing, although it is also made out of a hot mind, but no matter what, there is a reason why Leng Lingfeng's book is popular on the Internet, and it will not lose money in any way, but instant communication is different, everyone has made him bright, don't do it without knowing anything, and may drag down the 'Martial Arts Reading Network'.

Seeing that Wu Ma went out, Leng Lingfeng was also not thinking about instant communication, it was useless to think about it too much! It cost him 8 million today, and Carry only has tens of thousands of yuan, of which 2 million is to advance his manuscript fee.

"Brother-in-law, someone is here, now in the conference room, let's go and have a look!"

Not long after Wu Ma went out, Wu Siya came in, listened to her words, and got up and walked to the conference room with Wu Siya.

When I entered the conference room, I saw a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a pair of glasses, a little fat, with a small flat haircut, and he looked much younger than Wu Ma. I didn't expect it to be Wu Ma's classmate, Wu Ma is in his 50s. There were two more people next to him, probably lawyers or something.

"Boss, this is Mr. Zhang of 'Tianyun Publishing House'," as soon as he saw Leng Lingfeng come in, Wu Ma hurriedly introduced.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, just call me Lingfeng or Xiaofeng. Have a seat. ”

"Mr. Leng is polite, I am classmates with Lao Wu, I have also heard about you, I can't imagine that you are really young and promising!"

"Mr. Zhang is polite,"

A few people sat down, and Zhang Jiaqiang took the lead in speaking.

"Mr. Leng, before signing the contract, I still want to say a few words. ”

"What do you have to say, Mr. Zhang said directly,"

"That's it, Mr. Leng Tianyun Publishing House is what I did from scratch, just like my own children, now I am really a little reluctant to buy it, almost 20 years, and I have feelings, but now there is something at home, and there is no way, originally the old witch also came to me to tell me about publishing your website books, and there is also a certain amount of communication, but there is such a big thing at home, if you rely on publishing back funds, I don't know when, I also took a look at the book on your website, and found that there is great potential, but there is no listing and no bottom, just then you also want to buy a publishing house, so there is now a meeting。 However, I still hope that Mr. Leng will treat 'Tianyun Publishing House' well after taking over,"

"This Mr. Zhang rest assured, since I bought it, I will definitely manage it well. Seeing Zhang Jiaqiang say it with a serious face, he also knew that what he said was the truth.

"Finally, there is another condition, of course, this is not written into the contract, but I still hope that Mr. Leng will seriously consider it,"

"Please!"

"'Tianyun Publishing House' has been established for nearly 20 years, and there are many people in it who have struggled with me together, and now they are going to sell the company, and they can't let go of them, so I hope that Mr. Leng will give them a bowl of rice to eat, they have been in this industry for many years, and I can guarantee that they are the elites of this industry. ”

"After I take over, as long as they don't leave and can work seriously, I won't fire them, I said, they are all elites in the industry, I can't find them, how can I do such a thing!" Hearing Zhang Jiaqiang's words, Leng Lingfeng also had to take a serious look at him, and it was really as Wu Ma said.

"Then I'll take the staff of 'Tianyun Publishing House' to thank Mr. Leng, oh, I can't call it 'Tianyun Publishing House', get used to it, get used to it, hehe, don't be surprised by Mr. Leng! There is no problem, you can sign the contract now," Seeing that Leng Lingfeng agreed to the conditions, Zhang Jiaqiang also let go of his hanging heart, he was really afraid that Leng Lingfeng would fire the staff and appoint his own people if he took over.

In fact, the contract has been negotiated a long time ago, and the lawyers on both sides are also there, and now it is just a signature, but Leng Lingfeng still took a symbolic look, so it is not that he does not trust Wu Siya and Wu Ma, but that he shows respect for everyone.

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Zhang,"

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Leng,"

The contract was signed quickly, and Leng Lingfeng also got up and shook hands with Zhang Jiaqiang.

"Mr. Leng, you are busy, you can come over tomorrow to receive it, I will go back today to explain the situation to you, and I will also invite you to have a meal, it is an explanation to everyone, I have been with me for so many years, or Mr. Leng will come tonight." ”

"Mr. Zhang, I'm sitting down, I have a question I want to ask,"

"What's the matter," Hearing Leng Lingfeng's words, Zhang Jiaqiang was also a little puzzled. I don't know what else is going on.

"In this way, Mr. Zhang has bought the publishing house now, are you going to go back to inherit the family business?"

"No, just go back and rest well, what kind of family business! is also half-dead, now it is my son who is not a tool in management, in saying that I have been rooted in the publishing industry all my life, to put it bluntly, although it is a family business, but I have never been to see it, and I am not familiar with it at all, no one wants to buy it, and it is the meat of the old man in the family, we Han people pay attention to filial piety, unlike their own publishing house to buy it, if you buy the old man's business, not to say that I am not filial, a loser! Now that's the only way to hold on to what is the time. ”

You have also been in the publishing industry for so many years, and now you don't have to worry about your family's affairs, or you should stay in the publishing house. I see you're still so young and you're doing business,"

"What do you mean?" After listening to Leng Lingfeng's words, Zhang Jiaqiang didn't react at all.

"That's like this, Mr. Zhang, I see that you still stay in the publishing house, I will give you a manager's position, the publishing house still has you to manage, Wu Ma knows my affairs, and there is no time to manage it at all, and there is still a push at home,"

"I'll manage?"

"That's right! If you agree, I won't treat you badly, your salary is the same as Wuma, and the publishing house will also give you a 5% bonus in the future, and I will also give you a 5% bonus for the following employees. What do you think?"

"Okay!" Zhang Jiaqiang thought for a while, but still agreed, the publishing house and the newspaper were brought up by him, and he couldn't let go of it when he left.

"Really! That would be great, but the publisher shouldn't change it, but the newspaper should have a big change, and it needs to be revised. You have to be prepared. "There is no way to do this, when Leng Lingfeng knew that the "Beijing Life Daily" was going to be packaged and purchased together, he also went to find out, the newspaper is now only sold in the capital, and there are more than 10,000 copies a day, and only 50,000 copies at the most glorious time.

You must know that there are 30 million people in the capital now, even if there are 10 families and 3 million families, but the "Beijing Life Daily" only sells 10,000 copies, even if except for some young people who don't like to read newspapers, such a big potential can be tapped, he really doesn't know what Zhang Jiaqiang thinks, how did he identify the topic of people's lives!

It's not wrong for you to take another shortcut, but you can't just go all the way to the dark! Knowing that you can't do it, no wonder Wu Ma will say that he is more than enough to defend the city, and the innovation is insufficient, such a person has not made the company go bankrupt, but can still break even, and persist for more than 10 years, Leng Lingfeng also has to admit that this Zhang Jiaqiang is also a talent.

Besides, looking at his attitude towards the old employees, Leng Lingfeng also has a certain understanding of his personality, with his persistence, Leng Lingfeng knows that he should keep him, as long as he grasps the general direction on the side, he thinks that the newspaper in the future should be promising, and now that he has bought it, he has to find a way to make him.

Revision is a necessary process, and the publishing house has no intention of changing it, after all, it is just a book, as long as the quality of the book is passed, it is not a big problem.

"The newspaper is going to be revised?" Zhang Jiaqiang was still a little uncomfortable when he heard that it was going to be revised, but he also knew that this was inevitable.

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, the future newspaper will still focus on the lives of the people, just make a small adjustment, the current newspaper is 32 pages, take out 2 pages for sports, 4 pages for entertainment, and 2 pages for updating novels. There are 4 pages for advertising, and 20 pages for continuing to pay attention to the lives of the people in the capital, but the best is to take out 2 pages to introduce various snacks in the capital. ”

"Novel?" Zhang Jiaqiang can understand sports and entertainment, but he can't understand why he needs to use two pages to update the novel.

"Yes, you know that we are a fiction website, not everyone reads novels on the Internet, and serializing them in newspapers can help the website advertise on the one hand, and it can also allow people who are not used to surfing the Internet to be able to see novels on the Internet. ”
