Even Qin Huairu didn't eat anymore, staring intently for many years, her eyes full of love and joy.

This man is too powerful, right?

I only wrote two books, but I actually have such a high manuscript fee?

Xiaodoubao and their children, looked at their father even more adoringly, and they didn't eat anymore.

After many years of smiling, the magic of money is so huge.

"According to the outline, Xiaoao Jianghu should be written to about 1.2 million words, and Lu Ding Ji should be written to about 1.5 million words."

Hiss!

Everyone gasped, and Xu Xiaoqian immediately went to get her own abacus and began to calculate the manuscript fee.

As a result, Xiaodoubao has already calculated it by heart.

If it is 1.2 million words, the manuscript fee is 720,000 yuan, and Lu Ding Ji is 900,000 yuan.

Taken together, the two books are 1.62 million Hong Kong dollars.

That's amazing!

"Dad, is it true that when you're done writing these two books, we can buy another villa?"

Hot Wheels asked happily, with a small face and big eyes full of joy.

After many years, he was suddenly happy, "Our family is already so big, isn't it enough for you to have fun?" ”

"But my mother wants to grow vegetables, and I really want to have a dog, and we don't seem to have a special toy room at home."

The little guy is counting on his fingers, and it seems that there is really a shortage at home.

The home of Beihe Hutong in Beijing, there is a special toy room, and there are many, many toys in it.

It's just that those toys are still in the capital now, and they haven't been brought to Hong Kong Island.

Because of this, these days, Hot Wheels and his brother are not very used to it.

After all, Xiaodoubao and they went to school, and the two brothers Hot Wheels and Jing Ge'er were at home, which was really boring.

In addition, there is also an underground boxing room for martial arts training in the capital, but there is no one on Hong Kong Island.

In the early morning, they can also practice with their father, but when they are boxing, they are not so good.

Boxing, you must wear gloves, and you must be in a professional boxing room.

Therefore, in the current situation at home, the third floor can be rebuilt, but it has not been rebuilt yet.

What's more, the third floor is a study room and an entertainment room, and it is not suitable to change it to a boxing room.

Boxing rooms are relatively noisy and require more space.

"Okay, I know, Dad will arrange it as soon as possible." Many years of pampering said.

"Dad will provide you with the best facilities, but you also have to be obedient and work hard, do you hear?"

Heard it!

The six children replied in unison, with great momentum, and then they smiled.

They are really happy to have such a father.

When Qin Huairu heard this, her eyes lit up, "Child, her father, do you really want to buy the house next door?" ”

"yes, it's not expensive anyway."

"More than a million isn't expensive?"

Xiaomei and Xu Xiaoqian were both speechless, too Versailles.

However, Qin Huairu directly frowned and asked, "People are in a hurry to sell, and yours hasn't finished writing yet, we don't have any money in our hands, how can we buy it?" ”

For many years, he shook his head and said:

"Did you know that you can get a loan from a bank?"

"The house we live in now was bought by me in full, and the loan can be about 70%, which is nothing more than interest."

"The manuscript fee will not exceed two months at most, and you can get it, and you can pay back the money directly when the time comes."

Nowadays, the interest rate of loans is not high.

Mainly because today's houses are at a low ebb and are not very easy to sell.

Not to mention that if the owner next door is in a hurry, it must be dealt with at a reduced price.

In addition, if you buy a house, you can handle it yourself for many years, and you don't need Qin Huairu to handle it.

So, whether to take out a loan or buy a house in full, is it not up to him to decide?

"Isn't the interest rate expensive?" Qin Huairu was worried about this, and even Xiaodoubao frowned.

Although they are very small, they are not very sensible.

But their mother's expression has already said a lot of things.

"It's not going to be very expensive, don't worry about this, I'll go next door and ask in the afternoon to see what the situation is."

After lunch, Xiaodoubao and they will take a lunch break, and wait for about two o'clock, and then they will go to school.

From the current point of view, the work and rest time is no different from when I was in the capital.

The kids are still very adaptable, and they adapt quickly at school.

This can be seen from the things they shared with Qin Huairu and their family for many years after school.

In the afternoon, many years later, I went to the next door to consult, and I learned that the owner of the house was a white British, and the other party needed to move back to London, so he wanted to sell the house as soon as possible and get back the money.

In the process of talking to the other party for many years, it is easy to know that the other party has lost money in business and needs to return blood urgently.

Otherwise, in the current downward trend of the real estate market on Hong Kong Island, it is estimated that not many people will sell their houses.

Although housing prices on Hong Kong Island have fallen, it should be ordinary commercial housing that has been seriously affected, and it has nothing to do with these villas.

But it will still be affected to a certain extent, otherwise, it would not have been so easy to take Villa 72 in Deep Water Bay many years ago.

"Two million Hong Kong dollars, I only need two million Hong Kong dollars."

This is the other party's offer, after listening to it for many years, he shook his head, and he didn't want to be the wronged leader.

The other party's house is Villa No. 73, but the area is really much larger than No. 72.

Not to mention, the area of the garden alone is more than five acres, and there is an outdoor tennis court over there, which is indeed very different.

On top of that, it's just a wall between it and Seventy-two.

This means that two houses can be completely opened up and turned into one house.

However, for many years, I didn't like the decoration of the other party's villa very much, because it was too English.

Of course, the villa as a whole is still very good, some buildings similar to the Bund of the magic capital, I heard that the other party said that it was built with marble as the base material.

Such a house is still very sturdy.

"One million two hundred thousand, I will take it, and it is cash."

Hiss!

Hearing the offer for many years, this British gentleman, directly not a gentleman.

It's so damning!

"No, it's too cheap, at this price, I'd rather not sell it."

Looking at the somewhat mad British gentleman, he smiled unkindly for many years:

"Now that the economy of Hong Kong Island has been sluggish for more than a year, everyone has no money in their hands, and no one will take out the full amount to buy a house like me."

"If it drags on for a long time, your loss may be even greater, and I suggest you consider my offer carefully."

"I live next door, and you're welcome to come and visit me at any time."

After saying that, he left after many years, and the other party looked at him angrily and didn't say a word.

The price of 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars is really too cheap, and it is impossible to agree to it.

Regardless of whether the other party agrees or not, he has been sitting firmly in Diaoyutai for many years.

The next day, two newspapers and periodicals, the New Economic Daily and the Zhongyong Daily, went on sale on time.

The sales channel outlets have been established, and we are waiting to test the specific practical ability today.

Ah Chi, a Form 6 graduate, was not admitted to university last year and had to work as a waiter in a restaurant.

It's just that Ah Zhi has a paralyzed mother lying in bed and two younger brothers at home, and it is difficult to support the family by his father alone.

Therefore, even a restaurant waiter can hardly maintain the daily expenses of this family.

A week ago, he learned that a new newspaper was going to recruit salesmen, and the basic salary was not high, only 150 yuan, but the basic salary alone was enough to make Ah Zhi's heart move.

Not to mention, there is also the so-called commission.

So Ah Zhi didn't think much about it, so he signed up for the interview.

With the status of a Secondary 6 graduate, he quickly passed five hurdles and six generals, and finally successfully passed the interview and became an expatriate salesman of the New Economic Daily.

He was demarcated in West Kowloon, which is the vicinity of his family.

According to the meaning of the above leader, that is, he needs to get the newspaper from the printing factory at 5 o'clock in the morning, and then go to the most prosperous and crowded street in West Kowloon to distribute the New Economic Daily newspaper to those white-collar workers for free.

It's best not to give it to aunts and uncles who want to take advantage.

Delivering newspapers is a simple job, but it's not easy.

There will be someone to supervise, and after three days, the newspaper will start charging, and when the sales channels are concerned, they still need to be found by Ah Zhi and others.

Today is the first day, and Ah Zhi has had a few days of pre-job training, and I believe that he can do this job well today.

Before dawn, he was waiting at the gate of the printing house.

Nearly 200 young people were waiting in line with him.

They are all the same as Ah Zhi, they are all salesmen who take newspapers today and go to the intersection of busy streets to deliver newspapers.

Although everyone doesn't understand that newspapers can be delivered for free, they do whatever people say.

Serving other people's bowls and being managed by others is the common sense of wage earners.

It didn't take long for Ah Chi to carry the freshly printed newspaper on his back and rush to the street entrance of West Kowloon.

When I arrived at the place, it was already seven o'clock in the morning, and some white-collar workers had already gone out to take the bus to work.

Many people take the bus to the Star Ferry Pier and then take the ferry across the harbour to work in Central, which is opposite.

"Free delivery of the New Economic Daily"

"Who is behind the collapse of the property market on Hong Kong Island?"

"Was the disappearance of the British Museum an alien act or a supernatural event?"

"How many people died in a magnitude 7 earthquake in Tokyo?"

Ah Zhi shouted hard, these words were the headlines of the newspaper, and he needed to recite them.

And it is also one of his sales methods as a salesman.

Even though the newspaper is delivered free of charge, as a new newspaper, it is important to know about these things.

Otherwise, what if someone takes the newspaper home and uses it directly as toilet paper or as wallpaper?

By shouting, you can attract the attention and curiosity of many people, and when you hold the newspaper, you can't help but take a few more looks.

The New Economic Daily is biased towards the aspects of economic politics and history, so the headlines are biased towards these aspects.

Zhongyong Daily is biased towards the market, people's livelihood, folk customs, etc., in short, it is more realistic.

Even so, Zhongyong Daily is also a headline party, and the entry point is also very particular.

Otherwise, spending so much money to support those editors for many years is not charity.

Both newspapers were morning newspapers, and in the early morning they each distributed more than 800,000 copies.

According to the printing cost of a newspaper of three cents, plus the operating cost of two cents, 80,000 yuan will be directly sent out today.

For three days in a row, 80,000 yuan is given out every day, and ordinary people really can't stand it.

King's Road, North Point, Hong Kong Island, Ming Pao Headquarters.

"What are you looking at? Seeing it so fascinating? ”

"Ah, Editor Wang, look, this is a newspaper I got at the dock in the morning, and there is an article in it, and the writing is similar to that of our boss."

"Well, how could our boss publish it in another newspaper?"

As a result, Editor Wang soon saw the Lu Ding Ji on Zhongyong Daily, and the author's name was Fangxin Arsonist.

Bah!

What kind of bullshit pen name?

Editor Wang just scanned the first few hundred words, and was quickly shocked.

Because the writing of Lu Ding Ji is too similar to the article of their boss Jin Dada.

It's like twins.

Editor Wang, who knew a lot about the matter, hurried to the editor-in-chief's office and reported the matter to the editor-in-chief.

The editor-in-chief soon knew that the matter was big and hurried to report to the boss.

Through layers of reports, Jin Dada soon learned about it.

After reading the serials on Zhongyong Daily and New Economic Daily, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Who the hell is this?

One is called Fangxin Arsonist, and the other is called Yi Nian, but this is a pen name, who knows what his real name is?

The writing of the two books is very similar to his, but the writing is very different.

One is a story from the Ming Dynasty, and the other is from the Qing Dynasty, which has nothing to do with what he wrote before.

But when many people look at these two books, they probably will subconsciously think that he wrote them, right?

What to do?

This has nothing to do with infringement, but to say that it is not infringement, it is extremely misleading, what a fuck!

Kowloon Wang Kwong Road, Sing Tao Building.

Many people in Sing Tao Daily have also noticed the two newspapers, New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily.

Compared with Jin Dada's serialization in the newspaper, the senior management of Sing Tao Daily paid more attention to the sales and marketing methods of the New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily.

On Hong Kong Island in the fifties and sixties, a newly founded newspaper would offer a magic weapon to fight its way out of hundreds of newspapers.

For example, the stock review page, the horse book version, the celebrity gossip and erotic murder news are opened, and every time sales decline, more nude photos are released.

Even the headline party that came out of Great Britain quickly took root on Hong Kong Island.

Because London is very close to Hong Kong Island.

A lot of people go to London a lot, so what's new there will soon be on Hong Kong Island.

The success of the London Daily Express Mail has naturally attracted the attention of many insiders.

Who wouldn't want to replicate that success?

It's just that many tabloids are still tabloids, with no capital and no talents, so how easy is it to stand out?

The menacing New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily were published on the same day, and the marketing methods were the same.

In many busy areas and newsstands in Hong Kong, newspapers are distributed directly and free of charge.

Although it was only free for three days, it also had a certain impact on other newspapers.

Tomorrow, we will find out how big the impact really is.

Sing Pao, Hong Kong Island Commercial Daily, Ta Kung Pao, Hong Kong Island United Daily News, New Evening News, etc., all of these newspapers and periodicals are concerned about the changes in the market.

Because the New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily are indeed very strong, not only the capital is strong, but also the typesetting and news text are very strong.

To tell the truth, if everyone publishes at the same time, they may not be able to win the two newspapers of the New Economic Daily.

After all, their newspaper is more attractive.

For many years, I worked in China Resources Company step by step, just to contact the European side, and no matter how bad it was, I just dealt with some translation work.

was very leisurely, Sun Guohua and Yu Guangyuan did not urge him anymore.

For one morning, both of them hid in their offices to check the New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily, wanting to see how much money they could make with these two newspapers for many years.

Of course, on the first day, I couldn't see anything.

In the blink of an eye, the next day the British gentleman next door still hadn't come to look for many years.

The latter still slowly sends his children to school, and then he himself sends his master to the market, and then he goes to work.

Life is relatively leisurely.

On this day, the senior management of Sing Tao Daily soon received a report from the newsstand owner that today's newspaper sales have dropped a lot.

There are hundreds of newspapers in Hong Kong, and the top ones in terms of sales are Sing Tao Daily, Hong Kong Commercial Daily, Ming Pao and Sing Pao.

At present, the two newspapers, the New Economic Daily and the Zhongyong Daily, each distribute more than 800,000 copies every day.

Excluding the 100,000 or 200,000 newspapers taken away by those old men and old ladies, there are still 500,000 or 600,000 newspapers taken away by real readers such as white-collar workers.

With the more attractive New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily, it is normal for newspapers such as Sing Tao Daily to decline in sales.

It's just that these high-level executives of Sing Tao Daily are all sad.

Because with the news fed back by many newsstands and sales outlets, today's sales and the rate of decline may be unbearable.

Towards the end of the afternoon, almost all the newspaper sales in various places were counted.

Boom!

"Only 130,000 copies? A drop of 58,000 newspapers? ”

Pan Huiyan, the editor-in-chief of Sing Tao Daily, had a gloomy and frightening face.

The number of plummets is really terrible.

And this is only the first day, tomorrow is the second day, what to do?

Some evening newspapers were also sent out at this time, but sales were also affected.

"I don't care what means you use, the sales of Sing Tao Evening News must be stabilized for me, do you hear?"

There's a ghost for it!

Newspapers and periodicals such as Sing Pao, Hong Kong Commercial Daily, Ming Pao, and Ta Kung Pao were also affected.

Ming Pao, in particular, fell by more than 40,000 copies, and the losses were huge!
