Chapter 243 The wind is rising
Ding Youjian is a native of Kowloon. Due to family reasons, he had to drop out of high school. He had no choice but to enter society early.
Although he is only 19 years old, he has been working in the original Hong Kong Island Daily for two years.
Since I had never read any books and could not do a job of writing, Ding Youjian could only enter the distribution department without using his brain.
Fortunately, he is young and energetic, and can run longer in a day than other colleagues. He is also down-to-earth and willing to work hard, so he is highly appreciated by Minister Kang Hongze.
Because he needed to make money to support his younger brother and sister to go to school, when he heard that the Hong Kong Island Daily was resold and the one who took over was a teenage boss, Ding Youjian was full of pessimism, thinking that the newspaper would go bankrupt in a short time, and then he had to find a job again.
Who knew that although the new boss was young, he was not vague at all. He took action very generously and directly raised his salary by 20% to his employees. This surprised Ding Youjian and was full of gratitude to the new boss.
But despite this, the worries in my heart were still not dispelled, and I was always worried that the newspaper society would not go bankrupt.
In the next few days, he saw the changes in the newspaper. Although he didn't know much, Ding Youjian could feel that the atmosphere of the newspaper had undergone tremendous changes. His original state of being in trouble changed, and everyone worked very hard, especially the ministers, who set an example.
This made Ding Youjian admire the ability of the new boss who was younger than him. I wonder how the new boss made these "old fried dough sticks" ministers become full of energy.
Yesterday afternoon, the Minister of the Distribution Department Kang Hongze specially gathered everyone in the Distribution Department and held a meeting with them to explain the new boss's strategy.
Although Ding Youjian has not read any books, he can also feel that the new boss’s strategy and tactics are very powerful. He does not understand those great principles. He just simply believes that free things must be more attractive than fees.
This changed his mindset and was full of confidence in the newspaper's future.
In addition, the new boss just announced in public that there would be a bonus, which surprised him even more.
The boss gave him a promising and rich job. Ding Youjian was grateful to the boss from the bottom of his heart and made up his mind to do this job well and make his own contribution to the sales of newspapers.
Soon, the team leader of their group began to assign tasks, letting everyone spread out and distribute newspapers to the surrounding newspaper booths.
Ding Youjian went directly to a newspaper booth near his house. The owner of the newspaper booth was a distant cousin of his adopted mother, Aunt Yun. She could barely be considered a kinship and had daily contacts.
"Cousin!"
Ding Youjian walked quickly, took a 100-point newspaper and handed it over, saying, "Good morning, I'm here to deliver the newspaper to you."
"Kanzi, why are you so early today? Oh, that's not right. Didn't your Hong Kong Island Daily stop publishing? I didn't subscribe to your new newspaper. What would you give me?" The owner of the newspaper booth held up his glasses and asked in confusion.
"Cousin, our new newspaper is called Phoenix Daily. Don't worry, these 100 newspapers are provided for you to sell for free.
Our boss said, even if you sell at the normal price, as long as you sell it, call our newspaper immediately and you will be sent to you immediately. No money will be charged. You can get as much as you can sell it. Cousin, don’t miss this good opportunity to make money!"
Ding Youjian immediately said loudly, explaining all the key points clearly at once, with a tone of bewitching.
"Oh? There is such a good thing?" The owner of the newspaper booth's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but think about it.
If Ding Youjian really said, he would take advantage of it. The money he earned to sell a Phoenix Daily was several times more than that of selling other newspapers.
The most important thing is to give him as much as he can. His newspaper booth is in a very good location. The total number of newspapers sold in a day is over thousands of copies. If all the newspapers sold in Phoenix Daily, the money he earns in a day is almost as much as he earns in five days, and he can earn more than a month in a week. That's not it?
The boss was ready to move.
"Uncle, we are relatives, can I still lie to you? The newspapers have been delivered to you, and there are still fakes?" Ding Youjian deliberately made a dissatisfied expression.
Although he is loyal, he is also a little clever. He pretended to raise his hand and looked at his watch, and his tone was in a hurry.
"Oh, time is urgent. I still have a lot of newspapers to deliver. I don't have time to delay. Cousin, remember, as long as you sell it out and call our newspaper, someone will deliver the newspaper to you, and I'll leave first."
After saying that, Ding Youjian didn't wait for the boss to object, and directly rode his bicycle toward the next newspaper booth.
Looking at Ding Youjian's anxious look, the boss shook his head and laughed and scolded: "Boy, I didn't say no."
"Forget it, I'll take a look at the quality of this new Phoenix Daily, and then decide whether to push it hard."
The boss looked at the pile of newspapers in front of him and took out one, then placed the other newspapers in the center, and still gave his nephew his face.
Then I started to read the Phoenix Daily.
This time he was surprised.
"Hey, this layout is very novel, completely different from other newspapers, and it seems very comfortable, a bit stylized..."
After browsing the whole, the boss's eyes lit up slightly and he was a little curious about the Phoenix Daily.
Although he is not a professional, he can still see the differences between the new newspaper in his hand after reading too many newspapers. Judging from the layout alone, it makes people shine, refreshing and concise, but also has an unprecedented strong style that can attract readers' attention at the first time.
"Something is there..."
The boss muttered that he had no expectations for this new newspaper. After all, the original Hong Kong Island Daily was the last small newspaper. So what if he changed his boss, can he still make a fortune?
However, I didn't expect that I actually made a lot of money.
The boss became interested in his heart, and then he habitually turned to the novel section.
He is a fan of martial arts novels, but his book shortage has made him very uncomfortable, which leads to his search every day after receiving the newspaper.
"Sure enough, there is a novel... "The Legend of Sword and Fairy"? This name is interesting, let's take a look..." The boss murmured, and then began to read.
It was amazing when the boss was unconsciously addicted to it and couldn't even care about business.
On the other side, at the entrance of the Kowloon Exchange, two young people kept distributing the Phoenix Daily. As long as they entered the stock market, they would stuff a newspaper, and the newspaper went directly to the financial and commercial sector, so that others could read it as soon as possible.
The behavior of the two also attracted a lot of attention.
At the same time, most newspapers and magazines on Hong Kong Island, as well as other three major stock exchanges, pedestrian streets, office buildings and other places where people gathered, were more newspaper distributors like Ding Youjian and the two young people.
In addition, there are many teachers at various subway entrances doing the same thing.
Silently, a newspaper called Phoenix Daily began to enter the eyes of many Hong Kong citizens.
No one knows that the Hong Kong newspaper industry is about to usher in an unprecedented earthquake that swept countless people!
wind,
It's gradually rising!
