Chapter 506: Journalism Talent Dumb eats coptis
Jiang Xingchen's exam questions are very simple, just say one thing casually and let them describe it in words. Which one can use the shortest words to explain the whole process concisely and concisely is considered qualified.
As for naming events with more exaggerated adjective sentences, this needs to be cultivated later.
As a result of the exam, twenty-six people are basically qualified, you must know that Jiang Xingchen asked Grandpa Fu to find someone who can specialize in spreading news and inquiring about news, of course they are good at this.
The twenty-six people were all excited, they were all from the surrounding villages and towns, and some even had done odd jobs in Xingchen Ling, of course they knew how high the salary was given by Lord Jiang. Generally, there are twenty or thirty citrine coins a month. Although they don't know what kind of work they want to do now, they know from the personal summons of Lord Jiang that the salary will definitely not be low.
"Your task is to run around the country, and send me back the first time if there is something new or important...... The fund for your activities is 100 citrine coins per person per month, and the salary of each person is also 100!"
When Jiang Xingchen said this, these people couldn't help but exclaim. For the salary of a hundred citrine coins, they couldn't save it for five or six years, and now it's actually a month......
And this kind of work is too comfortable, just go around the country and ask for news. There is also a hundred activity funds, why can you spend a hundred citrine coins a month, and it is enough to save a little travel in the stars. Go outside, if you can endure it, eat white flour cakes, and rent a cheaper place to live, and a few citrine coins can come down. That rests. Isn't it all your own?
Of course, Jiang Xingchen knew what these people were thinking, and he smiled secretly in his heart: "You think this money is so easy to make, you will know it in the future." It's quite a crime, and if I can't get the job done......"
Thinking of this, Jiang Xingchen asked: "How about it, are you all willing, if you are willing, let's sign the contract!"
"Yes, we do!" the group nodded vigorously. As if he was afraid that Jiang Xingchen would change his mind.
Jiang Xingchen smiled and asked Grandpa Fu to bring the contract.
When those people saw the dense pages, they were a little fluted. Isn't it just a job, how can the contract be written so much?
"See if there's any problem, and if not, sign it!"
The men lowered their heads and flipped them roughly. There must be three messages per month. The more novel, the better...... Is this still a problem. It's so easy!
The news obtained cannot be spread outward, and can only be handed over to the stars to ...... No problem at all.
After reading them one by one, when they got to the back, they basically watched the flowers, and soon signed their names on the contract, stained the identity card with Indonesia, and stamped it on it.
Jiang Xingchen put away the contract with a smile and said loudly, "Welcome to join Xingchenling." You're going to be my paparazzi from now on, no. It's the talent of my news department......"
A group of people laughed too, and although they didn't know what the news was, it was enough to know that they were going to get a high salary and that they would be admired by their neighbors in the future.
"You go back and prepare first, and I'll train you tomorrow!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and waved his hand, inviting this group of excited news talents out. Then he discussed with Grandpa Fu to set up a separate department for Xingchen Monthly, and the news was temporarily subsumed under the name of the monthly......
When Jiang Xingchen had already started to prepare for the news department, he was far away in the palace of the imperial capital, and the emperor was so angry that his nose was crooked.
When the paper arrived, he remembered the problem of writing, how to get such neat and standardized handwriting on the paper, and he couldn't think of it even after breaking his head.
"Hey!" the Emperor wanted to give his head a look now, and all his attention was attracted by paper and anti-inflammatory drugs at that time, and he left such a conspicuous key problem behind!
Now the emperor really has a feeling of being dumb and eating coptis, who made him not think of the writing problem at that time, and he was thinking about the paper. If he goes to Jiang Xingchen to write the method again, he can't afford to lose this person.
It was rumored outside that the empire would run a monthly magazine, and the Xingchen monthly magazine would be impacted, and he had even heard rumors that it was crushed. At this time, go to Jiang Xingchen again, and let the people of the whole country say something, is your emperor capable of this.
"This kid, sure enough, everything is left behind, I said why did he only ask for a little bit of wanting to increase the reward and expand the territory. So you're waiting for me here...... Come to think of it, if the Imperial Monthly is released, it will impact his Star Monthly, how can he be willing to let me get the monthly magazine out so easily!"
"Eighty percent of the rumors outside were also released by this kid, just to prevent me from going to him for a way to write.
The Emperor thought to himself, took a few deep breaths in a row, and let out a heavy nasal sound.
This time, he really ate a bit of a secret loss, and he couldn't tell the bitterness, and he had to swallow it in his stomach after he knocked out his teeth.
He really wanted to directly cut off the resources, transportation, and personnel of the Star Collar now. There was even an urge to directly ban the sale of the monthly magazine.
But he knew he couldn't. In that case, he would force Jiang Xingchen to leave, but he had the most advanced weapons such as grenades in his hands.
In addition, if the Xingchen monthly magazine is directly closed, it will cause many people to be dissatisfied. There are many major territories that have a close relationship with Jiang Xingchen, and several major legions call that kid brothers. Among the lower-class nobles, the rich, and even the commoners, Jiang Xingchen's popularity is even higher. He has heard of the madness of Bauhinia fans.
Once dissatisfaction is aroused, the conservative forces and the middle forces that have just been reined in may have other ideas.
It is even more impossible to use force on a single charge, those bees and ants are comparable to several legions, and the eight kingdoms outside have not yet been dealt with.
For the current Jiang Xingchen, the emperor really has a feeling that a dog bites a hedgehog and has nowhere to put his mouth. The only way to deal with Jiang Xingchen is to eliminate his influence little by little.
However, now Jiang Xingchen's influence has not been eliminated, but he himself has been trapped.
So many people are talking about it, he has to run this imperial monthly if he doesn't run it, otherwise what will be the face of the royal family. But what to do now, how many monthly magazines are circulated, are all questions.
If there is less circulation, the purpose will not be achieved, and it will be equally humiliating if it is defeated by Xingchen Monthly. There are too many circulations, and the number of copyists alone will be tens of thousands, and all of them must be handwritten, so where can I find so many people at once. Even if you find a manpower, you will not be able to sell it for a price higher than that of Xingchen Monthly in the future, and you are likely to lose money, and the more you sell, the more you will lose.
The money in the treasury is not for nothing, and there is no need for money in all aspects of the huge empire. Just sell it at a loss, what will the ministers think. The old marquis can't get through there.
It doesn't matter if it's just this period, the treasury can afford to pay millions of dollars. The key is what to do in the future, this time to copy, then the next issue, you can't always copy it. That would be equivalent to raising tens of thousands of people, and how much money is enough in the treasury to pay such a loss.
The more I thought about it, the more sad I felt, and I scolded Jiang Xingchen in my heart, this hand was too insidious.
"Father!" The second prince ran in, with an excited expression on his face, and said loudly as if he was invited to take credit: "Father, there are now more than sixty trading houses that want to buy advertising space in the Imperial Monthly, please decide!"
The emperor was already annoyed, but at this time, when he saw that the second prince was still there, he was even more annoyed. He frowned and waved his hand: "Go ask the eldest prince about this matter and let him make up his mind!"
"Uh! go ask the eldest brother!" The second prince is stupid, didn't this matter be handed over to me.
"Your eldest brother will be in charge of the advertising space in the future, haven't you heard?" the emperor scolded with a cold face.
"Oh! I see!" the second prince was frightened, hurriedly bowed back, and then fled in a hurry.
The Emperor sat on the dragon chair, frowning and thinking about countermeasures. After a long time, another figure walked into the main hall.
"Father!" The person who came was a handsome young man, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with a calm atmosphere between his eyebrows, which made people feel extraordinary at a glance.
"You're here!" the Emperor looked up, glanced at the young man, and pointed to the seat on the left.
"Emperor Xie!" The young man saluted respectfully, walked to the left and sat down, and then said softly: "Jiang Xingchen didn't hand over the method of writing, and it is a little difficult for our Imperial Monthly to be organized!"
"Huh?" the Emperor raised his head, looked at the young man and asked, "You can see that too?"
"Yes!" the young man nodded, his face calm.
"This monthly magazine is not easy to run, it requires too much labor, and it has to be written well. If you keep the same price as Star Monthly. We're going to sell it at a loss, according to the calculation of one million copies, one person copies a copy to a citrine coin, just this piece, this issue will lose millions...... The ministers will not answer.
The young man pondered for a moment and said, "Father, although it is not easy to do, it is not impossible!"
"Oh?" the Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Do you have any solutions?"
"The second brother came to me just now, didn't you say that there are a lot of commercial houses that want advertising space, and this money can be completely out of them!" said the young man.
"There are only five advertising slots in Xingchen Monthly, and the price is one million each! We can lower it a little bit and recruit a few more advertising slots...... Using their money to feed the copyist should be even...... And what we want is only influence, and when we really occupy the market and compress Xingchen Monthly, it will be much easier to find Jiang Xingchen for a writing method at that time!"
The emperor did not immediately determine that raising 10,000 people is easy to say, but it is not so simple to really put it into practice. How can we ensure that we get together 10,000 people every month, and long-term reservations will definitely cost more money.
"Father, as long as we can defeat Xingchen Monthly, not a single qiē is not a problem!" the young man said again.
"Yes! Anyway, this monthly magazine has to be run if it is run, and it has to be run if it is not run...... Just do as you say, and try to make the rumors out there call reality!"
The Emperor said in a deep voice, waved his hand, got up and left the hall. (To be continued......)
