Xia Qiu had been buying stocks through a management company recently. Trading stocks was not as convenient as it would be in the past few decades. He could sit in front of a computer and complete the transaction with a click of the mouse. Many people had never heard of computers before, so all transactions were paper. First, he would take a fancy to the stock, and then he would go to the stock exchange to sign the contract. A transaction volume of more than 40 million was also a big order, so he had been very busy recently.
Ever since Xia Qiu Studio dismissed their employees, they rarely came. Now that they had nothing to do, they just came over for a stroll.
Seeing Xia Qiu arrive at the company, Zhou Xue hurriedly put down the book in her hand." Boss, why are you here today?"
Xia Qiu chuckled." Why? Can't I come to the company as your boss? Is there anything going on at the company recently?"
" Nothing much," Zhou Xue replied." I'm just bored staying here alone."
Xia Qiu was speechless when she heard Zhou Xue's words. Young girls just loved to play." You get 2,000 a month for nothing and don't have to do anything. It's such a good thing that no one else has the chance to do. You're the one who blames me for not giving you anything to do every day. Didn't I tell you to read more books? What are you reading now?"
Xia Qiu took the book from Zhou Xue's hands and read it.'How to capture a man's heart'. She was speechless." You read such a book?"
"I don't watch it often. I just watch it when I'm bored," Zhou Xue said softly.
Xia Qiu was amused by Zhou Xue's meek look. Was she really that scary?" How boring is this? You have to read such books to pass the time. What, are you in a relationship now? You're thinking about how to get your boyfriend?"
Zhou Xue replied embarrassedly," No, no one likes someone like me."
Xia Qiu circled the little girl and said,""This is really strange. Isn't the little girl pretty? She has the looks and the figure. How can no one want her?
Zhou Xue's face was slightly red. She said embarrassedly, I'm not talking to you."
Looking at her shy face, Xia Qiu found it amusing and laughed.""Alright, let's not joke about this anymore. From now on, we can't stay idle anymore. The company is going to start recruiting.”
Zhou Xue was delighted. She had heard from her boss that she would start another business after a period of work." Boss, is our company going to open again? What kind of business are we going to do in the future?"”
Xia Qiu lowered her head and thought for a moment." Our business is still in the field of novels, but we need to hire some storywriters this time."”
Zhou Xue was stunned. What was a story writer? "Are storytellers the people who write stories?”
Xia Qiu nodded." That's right. I'm looking for people who write stories, but this story isn't just random." He thought for a moment and said,
"Nowadays, the novels in Gangcheng are all based on Wuxia as the main theme. This kind of story is too singular. I want to recruit some talents who can write novels with various topics, such as science fiction, love, and horror novels.”
Zhou Xue thought for a moment and said," Not really. The novels written by Boss are very good. My friends heard that my boss wrote the novel 'Finding Qin' and 'Returning to the Ming Dynasty to Become a Wangye.' They were all so envious of me.”
Xia Qiu chuckled." My theme is also relatively simple. When the studio recruits someone, you'll know what it means to be diverse.”Then, he said," I plan to buy a small newspaper company. I haven't decided which one to buy yet. There are so many newspapers in Gang City. I don't know which one is willing to sell them. By the way, do you know which newspaper is going to be sold?”
Zhou Xue thought for a moment and said," I heard from someone that the boss of Tian Tian Daily doesn't want to continue because of the poor returns. But I don't know if it's sold now. The boss can go and ask this newspaper."”
Xia Qiu thought about it for a while and remembered this newspaper. In the future, this newspaper had to close down, mainly because of the issue of shares. It was always bought back and forth, and in the end, it had to close down. Just like ATV, because of the unstable shares, it was always suppressed by wireless, and in the end, it had to stop broadcasting." Alright, I got it. Go read your novel."
Xia Qiu had read about the development history of Tian Tian Daily before. It was founded by Wei Jishun in the 1960s and sold for 1.65 million yuan in 1977. It was only 1975, and its current circulation was only about 10,000 copies. Xia Qiu was not interested in such a small circulation. He just needed a mouth and a platform. When Xia Qiu arrived at the office of Everyday Daily, she realized that the newspaper was too small. It was only a hundred square meters and had more than twenty people. No wonder their circulation was so small. With fewer people, there would definitely be fewer news. Xia Qiu guessed that the news they published in the past had been reprinted from other newspapers.
Wei Jishun was in his forties, and he was also the son of a wealthy family. His family was in the pharmaceutical industry. Wei Jishun dreamed of starting a business, but the results were not satisfactory. Although this newspaper did not lose money, it did not earn money either. It had always been half-dead. When Wei Jishun learned that Xia Qiu was going to buy his newspaper, although he was not happy on the surface, he really wanted to get rid of this burden. In the end, he agreed to sell it to Xia Qiu for 1.5 million yuan. After the negotiation, the agreement was signed the next day. Everything was quick and simple. However, to Xia Qiu's surprise, there was a printing factory under the daily newspaper. Although the machine was old and there were few people, Xia Qiu did not care about these things. As long as there was a foundation, it would be fine. In the future, if he wanted to publish some short novels, he could print them in his own printing factory.
After signing the agreement, the handover was simple. Wei Jishun packed his things and left. He didn't say anything else. It seemed that this place really gave him a lot of pressure. The sooner he packed, the sooner he left. Xia Qiu only asked the staff about the situation of the newspaper. Now that the newspaper was short of an editor-in-chief, Xia Qiu did not intend to replace him. She directly promoted the former deputy editor-in-chief, Zhao Xiang, and let him take charge of the rest. Xia Qiu told Zhao Xiang that everything would go on as usual and left the news agency.# Date: **: 46 PM
