Chapter 355: Martial Soul Newspaper
Although Xia Ling, who came into contact with this work for the first time, also felt a little like he had nowhere to start.
But it can't be helped.
Even if you can't, you have to bite the bullet.
The power of public opinion is too strong.
Through simple operation, it is even possible to turn one thing upside down and distort the facts.
The Martial Spirit Palace, which has a big business, has enough anti-risk ability, and also has the capital of trial and error.
In the face of propaganda, Wuhun Hall took out great strength to support the establishment of the newspaper.
He even did not hesitate to draw out hundreds of demon soul horses with soul beast blood.
These powerful war horses, which have physical qualities far beyond ordinary horses, are even more fierce than the Heaven Dou Empire's unique Heavenly Soul Horses.
Today, they are not there to go to war.
Rather, it was used for the first stage of newspaper delivery and news gathering work for postmen.
Although Bibi Dong and Qiandaoliu did not understand what the newspaper was talking about, they also knew very well the two truths of the people's will and the fearful words of the people.
If used well, it's a sharp sword.
A sword that can crush an enemy without a single soldier.
Propaganda itself, fight the enemy.
If not used well, this is a double-edged sword.
As for the importance of news gathering, Xia Ling, who was once deep in the era of the information explosion, is well aware of the stakes involved.
If there is a journalist with bad intentions, the impact of his malicious manuscript on something is incredible.
Therefore, in the process of training reporters, Xia Ling even did not hesitate to turn on mental interference.
In order to ensure the purity of this staff member, and to avoid being exploited by the unscrupulous elements who are mixed in.
In anticipation of the great anticipation, the first issue of the Martial Spirit Monthly finally began to be printed.
The soul master engraves the words and patterns on the lead plate, and embeds them in the printing press.
The rumbling sound of the assembly line roared, stacking the printed newspapers to the end.
Several workers rushed up and manually arranged the different pagination sections in the correct order.
Xia Ling randomly pulled out a copy from a stack and checked the quality of the printing.
Freshly baked newspapers have the aroma of grass and ink, giving a feeling of freshness.
The square words and illustrations are neatly arranged in the style of later newspapers, telling a variety of stories.
Later newspapers provided a variety of different functions such as news, advertising, entertainment, etc.
The current Wuhun Monthly Report still plays more of a role in promoting itself.
At the same time, he also carried some of Xia Ling's own private goods.
If you want to achieve the great goal of equality for all in Douluo Continent, you must first carry out an ideological enlightenment movement to propagate democracy and oppose feudalism.
Obviously, that's certainly not realistic.
Many people will find it difficult to accept it for a while.
But if it were compiled into a short story, it would be different if it was disseminated in a newspaper.
Over the years, people have always been aware of something.
Most of these newspapers will be sent to various cities in the two empires, except for Wuhun City's own sales.
A small part will be sent to the stations of the various Martial Spirit Palaces, and will be sent to various villages for free by grassroots members like Su Yuntao.
Every newspaper sent to the city is sold at an ultra-low price of three Bronze Soul Coins each, ensuring that the average family in the city can afford it.
These sent to the village were given away for free by the Wuhun Palace, so that the village chief or other literate people could read them to the big guys.
Due to the limited printing efficiency and transmission efficiency, Xia Ling did not run a daily newspaper, but made it a semi-monthly magazine.
Let's be honest.
According to the current cost, three copper soul coins and a newspaper are definitely a loss to grandma's family.
It's not in manufacturing, it's in transportation and labor costs.
But it's okay.
In exchange for a part of the temporary monetary benefits for the extremely rich ideological returns in the future, this transaction is definitely worth it.
The wealthy Martial Spirit Hall can't afford to pay this amount of money.
Soon, the first newspapers were delivered to all corners of the continent by super postmen on ghost horses.
The Wuhun Halls in various places have taken on the role of newspaper kiosks.
When they first saw the newspapers, the public was undoubtedly surprised by these papers with a large amount of text.
With curiosity, many wealthy people choose to buy a copy and try it.
You know, in this era of parchment paper, the paper that carries the text is very expensive.
The price of one of five Bronze Soul Coins is almost the same as giving it away for nothing.
The first batch of people who bought it just looked at it and were dazzled by the dazzling "news" on it.
The first thing that catches your eye on the homepage is the report on the finals of the Elite Competition of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy that has just ended, and a large portrait of Xia Ling himself.
The final is described in great detail.
The exciting text description, the exciting game process, and the exquisite and handsome pictures undoubtedly directly caught the attention of these people.
The current Douluo Continent is still an era of extremely closed information.
The mode of communication is generally by roaring, and the circulation of information is generally by word of mouth.
It's a whole new experience to be able to read in great detail about some of the big things happening in certain places in such a small newspaper.
Spread gossip and love to be lively.
This is the unifying habit of mankind.
Even the Douluo people were no exception.
And the news on the Martial Spirit Monthly, this is simply giving them an official gossip manual.
It's so cool!
It's not just the news above.
The short stories with private goods in the back of the news are obviously also very attractive to their reading interest.
In order to maximize the cultivation of people's reading habits, Xia Ling also learned the methods of newspapers in later generations and organized a whole life section.
In the life section, Xia Ling exerted the traditional entertainment of the Great Foodie Empire.
Teach cooking.
Strictly speaking, it is to teach everyone how to make staple foods and more varied staple foods.
Tofu, bacon, salted fish, sauerkraut, cheese, flatbread, pot helmet, etc......
No matter what form of civilization it is, the people always want the people to eat for the sky.
The practice of playing food with the big foodie empire soon caused a serious dimensionality reduction blow to the rough local cuisine of the Douluo Continent.
The owners of major restaurants and liquor stores are vying to learn and imitate.
Of course, this was mainly due to the fact that Douluo Continent's diet system was too scarce and rough.
In just a few days, the new word newspaper spread all over the streets and alleys of the two empires, and became a hot treasure in the hands of many people.
A newspaper was circulated in the hands of many people who were vying to read the articles on it.
For a while, this Martial Soul Monthly, which was only worth three copper soul coins, became a fragrant bait that everyone was competing for.
In private, the price of one copy was even speculated to one Silver Soul Coin per piece.
Now even the illiterate people in the village are looking forward to when the next edition of the Martial Spirit Monthly will be published.
Even if you're not interested in the news, learning to cook and listening to stories is delicious!
