Chapter 97: See Chen Hao

"Okay, I will definitely go to Brother Jun's hall tomorrow night, and I will definitely give Brother Jun and your little brother an explanation at that time. King Ming's face was gloomy like water, and he said to Huo Dongjun.

Huo Dongjun smiled at King Ming: "Thank you Brother Ming Wang for your face, I'll go first, and you drink tea slowly." ”

After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the outside of the teahouse, and the eyes of everyone in the teahouse were locked on him, but until Huo Dongjun left the teahouse, no one dared to make a sound.

"Lock Ming Tsai in the boxing gym for me, and I'll take him to Fei Tsai Jun's hall tomorrow!" After half a ring, Ming Wang stood up and spoke.

"Big man, Ming Tsai ......" Seeing that King Ming was leaving, Atai opened his mouth and wanted to speak.

King Ming turned his head to interrupt Atai's words and said: "Tomorrow night, you take Ming Tsai to accompany me to Fei Tsai Jun's hall, no need to say more, Zhong You, the little brother who asked people to see the treasure seal just now, remember to slap your mouth, lest people laugh at my little brother Ming Wang who doesn't know the rules! I don't care if the other club bosses still abide by the rules of Hongmen, but I must abide by them!"

……

When Huo Dongjun returned to the magazine office by car, it was already noon, and Liang Jiahui and Li En were eating a takeaway lunch, and when they saw Huo Dongjun walking in, Liang Jiarong put down the lunch in his hand, stepped forward and said to Huo Dongjun:

"I've heard Taishan say, it's normal for someone to charge protection money for running a magazine, don't take it to heart, not only us, all newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong do not pay money, even if the "Oriental Daily" of the white powder horse, although it does not have to be paid, it is not confused with Chaolianyi's family, black and white. ”

Huo Dongjun smiled: "Don't worry about me, I don't have to worry about it, go to the printing house today, the sample of the magazine printing?"

"Have you eaten yet? Xiaoxin, help Jun Shao open a box of bento, eat together, and eat rice if you are angry, the dry fried beef river and vegetable soup ordered today. Liang Jiarong pushed Huo Dongjun to the desk, and the little novice next to him quickly put a box of fried beef river in front of Huo Dongjun.

Huo Dongjun looked at the four of them, picked up the chopsticks and asked, "Haven't you seen Photography Wei in the past two days?"

Li En drank a tablespoon of vegetable soup and said: "That pervert, I can't wait to live in the printing factory for the past two days, lest those workers leave with the photos he took without permission, in his words, it must be kept secret, so that all the salty and wet guys in Hong Kong can see the photos he took at the same time. ”

"How did you go to the distribution association to discuss?, are they all satisfied?" Huo Dongjun suppressed the depression in his heart, and asked Li En with a smile.

Li En let out a sigh of relief, looked around at the four people present, and said: "I haven't said anything about the few of them who have been asking me, but I didn't say it until Jun Shao returned, and after I gave our sample to the newspaper distributors in various regions of the distribution association, guess how many inaugural issues they ordered? ”

"100,000 copies are swept away!" Taishan was the first to say with chopsticks.

Xiaoxin also said: "It's so easy to guess, maybe, I guess it's only 110,000 copies, there must be a publisher who wants too many goods, so there are 10,000 short copies of the magazine." ”

"120,000, 20,000 shorts. Liang Jiarong walked back to his place, picked up the lunch and said.

Seeing that Huo Dongjun didn't say anything, Li En asked, "Jun Shao, how many do you think it can have?"

Huo Dongjun looked at the dry fried Niu River on the dinner plate of several people, and said with a smile: "No matter how many there are, I will treat you to lunch tomorrow, otherwise people will see the editor-in-chief of the weekly "Man Magazine", and the distribution editors will only eat the dry fried Niu River, which can make headlines." ”

"After looking at the sample issue, the four regional distributors in the four districts of Yau Tsim Mong will have to buy 80,000 copies, and other distributors such as the Southern District, Kwai Tsing, Chai Wan, etc., of course, are not satisfied, and almost fight, the publishers of the 18 districts in Hong Kong combined, the first issue will be 190,000 copies, and 90,000 copies will be empty! Nearly doubled!" Lai En said at the end, and he became excited and his tone increased.

"It's just short, of course they're not afraid of how much they report, if they can't sell it, we have to go back, it's just 90,000 empty copies, even if there is water, half of it, there are 45,000 copies, Jun Shao, why don't you print it?" Liang Jiarong heard the number of 90,000 empty copies, and said his thoughts.

"If you don't add it, we will always let them grab our magazines like bones, they rob, readers are also grabbing, this issue is only 100,000 copies, and the next issue will be increased to 150,000 copies, look at the limelight, if the supply exceeds demand, we will break the record in the third issue, 250,000 copies, the whole Hong Kong and Kowloon now have a population of 5.2 million, 250,000 copies, which is equivalent to one out of ten men reading our magazines, this should be the limit. Without waiting for Huo Dongjun to speak, Li En had already said his thoughts.

"250,000 copies? Will it be too much, you know, we have a tail, if we have too many magazines, even if we make money in the early stage, we will lose money later. Even though Liang Jiarong has been rolling in this circle for more than ten years, hearing the number 250,000 in Li En's mouth, his eyelids still trembled involuntarily.

"I will do the distribution when I enter this industry, 250,000 copies, I bet that even if there is a reend, it will not exceed 20,000 copies, and I will make him dare not go back and forth with those 20,000 copies, because he has too many reends, and the number of copies I give him in the next issue will decrease, and we use the first five issues to find out the sales of 98 regions in Hong Kong, so that when they report the number out, we also know whether he has opened a short position. Li En looked at Huo Dongjun's eyes and said in an affirmative tone.

He came from a publishing background, so he naturally knew that if the publication of "Men's Weekly" broke the record this time, not only would "Men's Weekly" become popular all over Hong Kong, but his name would also resound throughout the newspaper industry on Hong Kong Island along with the single-issue sales record.

"I don't have a problem, Sir Liang invited you to come just for the circulation, you have the best confidence. Huo Dongjun said to Li En: "But what Liang Sir said is also wrong, it is best to make the data more refined before deciding the printing volume of the second and third issues." ”

"Jun Shao, do you want to accompany us to the printing house tonight to see those distribution associations come with money to pick up the goods?"

"You and Ryan can just keep an eye on it, I'm going to see a friend tonight. Huo Dongjun stopped his chopsticks and spoke.

……

After leaving the magazine, Huo Dongjun went to the Guanji Seafood Restaurant to buy a copy of Tianjiu Wings, and then walked back to the housing estate on Yuehua Street and took the elevator straight to the top floor.

The top floor of the estate is rarely occupied, because the water leakage is serious, a little careless, the home on the top floor of the rainstorm will be as fresh as the seafood restaurant, so the slightly capable will move out, most of the people who stay on the top floor are lonely and widowed elderly, and the most roof leakage will call the social worker to help make up for it.

There is a house on the top floor that has seen the light, I don't know who the owner is, I only know that no one has lived in it for many years, and when Huo Dongjun was still walking in the corridor, he heard Chen Hao's roar:

"I want to see Brother Jun!"

Ah Wolf's voice then sounded: "Ah Hao, don't make it difficult for me, everyone knows that Brother Jun is angry now, and you just provoke him to be angry when you see him." ”

Huo Dongjun walked over with the packed Tianjiu Wings, the dilapidated door was barely closed, and the two figures were leaning against the door, Huo Dongjun opened his mouth and said:

"Open the door. ”

When the two younger brothers guarding the door in the house saw Huo Dongjun, they hurriedly opened the door and called Brother Jun.

Ah Wolf turned around and saw Huo Dongjun, but he didn't make a sound, Huo Dongjun waved his hand: "Go downstairs and take your little brother to eat something, there is no reason to make your little brother hungry." ”

Ah Wolf nodded, took the five little brothers in the room out of the door, and slowly closed the door outside, leaving only Huo Dongjun and Chen Hao, who was staring at Huo Dongjun in a daze, in the entire dilapidated room.

Huo Dongjun pulled over a chair, put the Heavenly Nine Wings on it, and said to Chen Hao, "Come and eat." ”

Chen Hao's face was bruised, which was hit by Huo Dongjun when he fell on the wall, Chen Hao threw away the cigarette in his hand, walked over and picked up the nine wings and ate it.

Huo Dongjun lit a cigarette next to him and watched Chen Hao gobble it up.

"Tomorrow night, will it be three knives and six holes or a broken hand and foot?" Chen Hao ate most of the Tianjiu Wings, threw away the chopsticks and said.

"Do you know what's wrong, why did you hit you?" Huo Dongjun flicked off the ash of his cigarette and asked out loud.

"I know, I violated the rules of the rivers and lakes and beat the Lianying Society. Chen Hao stood in place and looked up at Huo Dongjun and said.

"It's not that you have violated the rules of the rivers and lakes, but you have done something wrong but have not spoken out, and you have not stepped on the boundary, why don't you tell me? I am your boss, even if I know that you are in trouble, I will stand on your side, Yaohui was cut into a waste, am I wrong about your expert method?" Huo Dongjun asked in a calm tone.

Chen Hao lowered his head, touched the scars on his face, and said, "I hurt my brother, I deserve to die." ”

"During this time, you rest, I will hand over the six streets to Chen Dong, and you just have to keep an eye on Chen Dong. Huo Dongjun walked to the windowsill and looked at the sky outside and said.

Chen Hao raised his head: "Brother Jun, I have violated the family law, either I have broken my hands and feet or I have been expelled from the association......"

"You stabbed three times, and returned it to King Ming tomorrow night, I will find someone to do it, whether it is life or death, it depends on your luck, but if you are stabbed three times, cut Yaohui's Lianying Society 49 Zai, it will be the same fate. Huo Dongjun turned his head and looked at Chen Hao: "Beating you is not only to show the younger brothers, but also to make you smarter, don't think that you can really run rampant if you take up your job, those people who die on the rivers and lakes every year are arrogant characters like you." ”

"Will you be stabbed all three times and hang up?" Chen Hao looked down at his body: "Brother Jun, did you give some hints?"

Hearing Chen Hao's slightly excited tone, Huo Dongjun turned around and stared at him: "Don't think that this matter will pass like this, just rely on the position to dominate the shrimp and shrimp in the territory, and don't take the Sijiuzai of other societies in your eyes, the brothers below will not obey you! Three knives and one knife will not be less, Zhong will break one of your arms! I will personally break that arm! The only difference with Rotten Life Kun is that I won't hit you on the head, your life is good, we are still brothers, you have low luck, just take the first step!"
