On November 10, "Tiantian Daily" reported the opening of "Yulang ACG", a directly-operated peripheral store owned by Yulang Organization, and briefly announced the revenue of this peripheral store during the first week of its opening.

In one week, Yulang ACG’s single store revenue was 148,000 yuan.

The report did not release more detailed data, but even this is enough.

On the Monday after the third day, the capital market reacted quickly. The Hang Seng Index had just opened and Yulang Institution surged 15%.

In the next two days, the stock price rose another 7%.

In August, after Tao Yushu technically acquired Ming Pao Group, he announced that he would transfer the media business of Yulang Institution. As soon as the news came out, Yulang Institution's stock price fell for three consecutive days, down 12%.

The reason is also very simple. The media business symbolizes the company's diversified operations, represents the company's future development potential and the imagination of the stock price.

Leng Buding transferred all the media business, which means that Yulang Agency will not be involved in this direction in the future. The potential is suddenly reduced by a large amount, and the market value has dropped by 12%. It is already considered small.

In the following more than two months, the stock price of Yulang Institution rose and fell, and the market value was relatively stable.

As a result, "Tiantian Daily" not only raised Yulang Institution's stock price back to its peak, but also hit a new high with just one piece of news.

The market value suddenly exceeded the 2.5 billion mark.

The capital market has always been the most real. The most fundamental reason for Yulang Institution’s stock price to soar is that institutions and investors recognized Yulang Institution’s new open source achievements.

Yulang ACG Taikoo Shing Center store's revenue was nearly RMB 150,000 in the first week of its opening, which is RMB 7.5 million in a year. With the population and city size of Xiangjiang, it should not be difficult to open ten or eight peripheral stores like this.

Moreover, the "Tiantian Daily" report also mentioned that Yulang Organization will actively expand overseas channels and expand the sales scale of peripheral industries in the next few years.

For a listed company with an annual revenue of about HK$500 million, the annual revenue is more than HK$50-60 million, and overseas revenue may also explode in the future. It seems reasonable for the stock price to rise by more than 20%.

But the capital market is not rational in many cases, especially here in Xiangjiang. The stock price of Yulang Institution did not stop after rising for three days in a row. Instead, it broke through 5 yuan all the way, and the market value rushed to 3 billion Hong Kong dollars.

The increase was so frightening that the boss, Tao Yushu, couldn't help but have the idea of ​​cashing out and running away.

It's a pity that the market didn't give her a chance. After a big rise, there was a big fall. Just when it was about to reach the 3 billion market value mark, the stock price of Yulang Institution fell back again, and the market value returned to about 2.5 billion. It was obvious that the institution ran away with the bucket.

.

The stock price returned to the normal range, and Tao Yushu felt a lot more relieved.

She laughed at herself to Lin Chaoyang: "It seems that I really don't have the courage to control the stock market!"

After saying this, she was even more impressed by Lin Chaoyang's ability to make pocket money in the stock market.

A few days later, Lin Chaoyang discovered that some media in Xiangjiang reported that Lin Haiyin invited him to visit WID.

The person who reported this incident was the Xiangjiang Times, which is a Y-style media controlled by WD.

In order to invite Lin Chaoyang to come to WD, Lin Haiyin went to several departments, but was always pushed back and forth.

In desperation, she had no choice but to publicly speak to the government through a reporter from China Times.

These articles read:

"——On October 15, 1987, the government passed the family visit plan. The day after the bill was passed, the mainland immediately released its goodwill.

Nearly 40 years of non-communication between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait has finally been broken. In the past two years, many people in WD have benefited from the Family Visitation Act and have been reunited with their relatives who have been separated for many years.

In April this year, Sanmao went to mainland China to visit relatives. In 1979, the Mainland People's Literature Publishing House published "WD Novels", and Sanmao's "The Mute Slave" was included in the selection, which was loved by hundreds of millions of readers.

Sanmao went to the mainland and traveled all over the country. He was greatly welcomed by officials and people in major cities. Everyone cheered for him wherever he went. The media reported on it, making Sanmao's fame spread throughout the country.

The mainland stretches north and south.

We can't help but ask here, since Sanmao's visit to the mainland was able to go smoothly and received a huge welcome, why is it so difficult for mainland writers to land on the island?

Mr. Xu Lingjun, who was invited by Ms. Lin Haiyin, is not only a well-known writer in mainland China, but also has a high reputation overseas. His works have been sold well in many overseas countries and he has also been recognized by the famous French literary award Renaudot Literary Award.

It was originally a great thing for such an internationally influential writer to visit the island and communicate with the cultural circles and people on the island, but unexpectedly, it encountered resistance at all levels.

According to Ms. Lin Haiyin, inviting people from mainland cultural circles requires the approval of multiple departments. However, she went through all these departments, but no one responded to her request. She was constantly shunned for various reasons -

Since JY, the WD newspaper industry, which had been suppressed for more than thirty years, has become more independent.

"China Times" is the first comprehensive Chinese newspaper in the WD area. It was founded in 1950 and cooperates with "United Daily News", "Zyou Times" and "P

Fruit Daily is listed as one of the four major WD newspapers and is one of the leaders in the WD newspaper industry and has a strong influence on the island.

As soon as the article "Sanmao is so popular to go to the mainland, but why it is so difficult for mainland writers to land on the island" was published, it immediately aroused heated discussion in the WD cultural circle.

The 1970s and 1980s were the golden and silver decades of WD literature. Writers were very influential, and what many people liked most was to attack the government to highlight their fear of power.

Lin Haiyin has a high reputation in the WD literary world. Since the 1960s, her living room has been the most lively place in the WD literary world.

Therefore, she gave a shout-out in China G Times, and many WD writers responded.

Chen Jiying, Ye Weilian, Argon Xian, Bai Xianyong, Chen Yingzhen, Sanmao and others also publicly supported Lin Haiyin and criticized the push and obstruction of several government departments.

Sanmao specially wrote an article in the "United Daily News". She said in the article:

"The Chinese heart is made up of the flesh and blood of our compatriots. I really love my China deeply. I just came back from the mainland not long ago, and I miss home even more."

I just read Mr. Xu Lingjun's "Entering the Teacher" and I feel like he is like my cousin, kind and warm.

Thinking of those days in mainland China, tears burst out of my eyes.

I think I should meet him in the winter of TB and wave goodbye in the snow."

Sanmao's writing style is full of sensibility, so he is also sought after by many young writers.

If Lin Chaoyang saw it, after saying thank you, he still couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Of course, there are those who support and those who oppose. Some people in the WD literary community were very dissatisfied with Lin Haiyin's invitation to Lin Chaoyang. They even resisted and sang their opposition in public.

Suddenly, because of the invitation to Lin Chaoyang to come to the island for exchanges, the WD literary world became very lively.

When the WD literary world was in a quarrel, WDZF, which had been silent for a long time, finally spoke out.

On November 14, WD China Y published a public statement on Lin Haiyin’s invitation to mainland writers to visit the island for exchanges, saying:

"Regarding the invitation of mainland writers to the island for visits and exchanges, XXX stated today that exchanges should be subject to official approval. At present, there are currently no conditions for mainland writers to visit the island."

WDZF was silent for several days and gave this answer.

This is naturally unsatisfactory. The official wants to approve it, but you approve it! The conditions are not met at the moment? When will they be met?

It is very troublesome for literati to miss words.

In order to invite Lin Chaoyang to the island, Lin Haiyin tried her best and kept speaking out in the media, but the harvest was not great.

China Y News Agency's status in WD is equivalent to Mainland China's New H News Agency, and the media's stance represents the government's attitude.

Even if Lin Haiyin has the support of many people in the literary world, he cannot shake the arrogance of those in power.

When the WD literary community was working hard to invite Lin Chaoyang to the island, the "Hong Kong Times" got involved.

The news headlines used to report this incident are very provocative, such as "Mainland TZ has a new trick, a writer acts as a pioneer and lands on the island", "Warning about a traitor in the island's cultural circles", etc.

For example, the Industrial and Commercial Daily, which was controlled by Hao Jianghe at that time, had always been pro-rightist until the return to China was decided.

When everything was settled in 1984, Haojiang He shut down the newspaper and submitted a petition to the mainland.

It is becoming increasingly rare for media outlets to be as bold as the Xiangjiang Times.

Unfortunately, their arrogance did not last for a few days. First, the "Tian Tian Daily" took the lead in attacking the "Hong Kong Times", angrily accusing it of being willing to act as the government's eyes and ears and a hawk, without the responsibilities and limits of a journalist.

The "Hong Kong Times" published an article to retort, but it did not expect that media outlets such as "Ta Kung Pao", "Wen Wei Po" and "Ming Pao" would join the battlefield later.

The "Hong Kong Times" fell into a situation of being surrounded and suppressed, and angrily issued an article saying that ZG's penetration of the Hong Kong press has been pervasive.

The GY government is reminded to be more vigilant.

However, Ming Pao published an article in reply:

We run a newspaper in Xiangjiang, and we are just running a business. We have no ambition to be a GM, and we know that we do not have the ability.

Our readers are all Chinese, and everyone cares about China's affairs. And the readers of "Ming Pao" are more concerned about politics, so we have the obligation to be the readers' eyes, ears and mouthpiece.

China's affairs are created by history and the situation is complex. Everyone in China can say it, and Ming Pao can also say it.

"Ming Pao" has always taken a neutral stance, but in the face of the "Hong Kong Times"'s random attacks, it made a reasonable and reasonable defense and won the support of the majority of readers.

In contrast, the Xiangjiang Times has reported many days of subjective and biased reports that have greatly undermined readers’ perception of this newspaper.

It's okay for them to ridicule Lin Haiyin. People in Hong Kong are not familiar with her, but Lin Chaoyang is different. In recent years, Lin Chaoyang has brought glory to Hong Kong. He has become the "Light of Hong Kong".

The "Hong Kong Times" unabashedly ridiculed Lin Chaoyang, which is tantamount to standing on the opposite side of the ordinary citizens of Hong Kong.

The Xiangjiang Times is not a major newspaper to begin with, with sales of only about 40,000 to 50,000 copies per issue.

As a result, the scolding started and in less than half a month, the newspaper's sales dropped by more than 10,000 copies.

Readers voted with their feet to shut it up, and the "Hong Kong Times" really got cold feet.

They may not care about the public opinion siege of other major newspapers, or even the decline in sales, but they cannot care about the loss of readers. If a newspaper that exists to win over ordinary people in Hong Kong loses the support of the people, the end will surely be waiting for it.

Even though they shut up, it is not easy for lost readers to come back.

No one knows that the person in charge of the "Hong Kong Times" has no regrets, but Lin Chaoyang's current influence in Hong Kong society has been undoubtedly revealed through this incident, which has amazed many people.

In the past two years, he has been hiding behind Tao Yushu and keeping silent. This time he has made a big splash.

Lin Chaoyang himself did not actually do anything during this turmoil. He just allowed the storm to rise and stayed on the Diaoyutai.

He doesn't need to move, there will naturally be someone who will lead the way.
