Now that we have the name of the newspaper and the equipment, the next thing to prepare is the content.
What kind of content is more attractive?
There is no doubt that there are gimmicks and consensus, and it is best to have some gossip content such as gossip about celebrities in the town of Manbach.
The first issue of the newspaper must be an instant hit.
Therefore, Li Yinguang simply focused his attention directly on the 'enemy'.
After reading the contents of the 'model newspaper', the housekeeper Goda raised his head, swallowed his saliva, and asked in a low voice: "Master, can we do this?"
Li Yinguang frowned: "The content is not attractive?"
"No, what I mean is if we do this, will we offend people too much?" Butler Goda shook his head. He quite agrees with the content in the tabloid, especially because it is very attractive to men.
Powerful.
Title: The female relatives of Shota Kuroda, the boss of the Fierce Spider.
Signed, Old Dick’s Narrative!
Of course, 99% of the content in it is fabricated by Li Yinguang. It's a tabloid, just a side story. As for the grudge between Kuroda Shota and Old Dick, people in the town of Manbach have heard about it to some extent.
.
The story is highly attractive and reaches a wide audience. Isn't this a good gimmick?
Then again, Kuroda Shouta almost tricked everyone on the "Castle" to death. Did he offend anyone? It's not an exaggeration to say that they are life-and-death enemies. They both gnashed their teeth and wanted to kill each other, so why did they care?
Not guilty?
Suddenly thinking of something, Li Yinguang raised his hand and patted his thigh and said, "What are the shortcomings? Go to Old Man Zhou's Black Heart Grocery Store next door and ask if there is a camera that can take photos!"
The housekeeper Geda came back and told Li Yinguang that there was, and the product quoted by Old Man Zhou was sixty silver ox coins per unit, including professional washing equipment.
Li Yinguang muttered something in a voice that only he could hear, gritted his teeth and chose one.
The ‘camera’ in this world is huge!
First of all, the size is 50cmx50cmx30cm. It has a protruding lens, a partition in the middle and fancy large and small gears. Below it is a thick tripod support. The principle is no different from that of a modern camera, except that it is very large, giving it a bulky feel.
There should also be a sophisticated camera, but it was estimated to be expensive. Old man Zhou from Black Heart Grocery Store felt that Li Yinguang couldn't afford it, so he didn't take it out.
It doesn't matter if it's stupid, the key is that it's not cheap either.
"Go to the pimp inn and find some young and pretty girls." Li Yinguang fiddled with the camera and told the housekeeper Goda.
The butler Goda thought his master was in need, so he went to the pimp inn and specially selected a waiter who was expensive and in good health.
"Come here, put on all your clothes and sit in front. Beauty, can you pose more seductively? Don't worry, your face won't be exposed, but we can't be too wild and have to restrain ourselves!"
Li Yinguang didn't ask too much. He felt that the housekeeper Geda did a good job. At least the women he found were not ugly, they were fat or thin, and they were all in moderate shape.
He needs a 'model', but he doesn't want to use one.
According to Li Yinguang's "artistic" vision, even if he has never studied photography, the photos he takes are definitely eye-catching. They are in that kind of aesthetic style, with light but not exposed, half-hiding the face with a pipa, and revealing such a trace of dusty atmosphere.
Silky elegance.
No front, no face, use the language of the camera to completely cover it!
The photos were taken all afternoon, and there were quite a lot of them. Li Yinguang had a great time taking them, and these pictures will be used in the future.
"Look, with the pictures, does the artistic conception of our newspaper rise to a higher level?"
Li Yinguang said with satisfaction as he looked at the 'sample newspaper' that had been rearranged and added picture elements.
The housekeeper Goda nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "Master, I have already inquired. The newspapers in Manbach town generally sell for thirty copper bulls. Do we also sell them at the same price?"
The cost of printing a newspaper is only 20 copper niu per copy, which includes the cost of paper, so a newspaper can only earn 10 copper niu at most.
If you are lucky, you can sell 1,800 copies every day. The best-selling "Manbach Town Daily" in Manbach Town will not sell more than 3,000 copies.
Based on three thousand copies, by selling newspapers, you can earn up to thirty silver bull coins a day.
Not all newspapers can sell so many copies every day. Assuming that even the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' founded by Li Yinguang can have such a high sales volume, it can earn thirty silver cattle coins a day, which is only three thousand silver coins in a hundred days.
It looks like a cow and can't even afford a Z3 smelting furnace.
This was not in line with his expectations. For others, this might be a substantial income, but for Li Yinguang, it was far from enough.
Li Yinguang smiled with deep eyes and shook his head: "No, we only give it away, not sell it!"
The butler Goda's smile froze on his face and he looked at him eagerly: "Only for gift or not for sale?"
"Yes, we only give it away and don't sell it!"
Li Yinguang nodded and told the housekeeper Goda that he heard correctly.
"We bought equipment, paper, and took photos and printed them. Master, wouldn't we lose money if we didn't sell newspapers?" The housekeeper Goda really couldn't understand what his master was thinking.
Li Yinguang said with a smile: "The more you think about making money, the less money you may make. Only by giving up can you gain something. If it weren't for old Dick suspecting that I was a fool, he would have adopted me as his adopted son and spent decades of savings
Give me all your wealth as a legacy?"
The housekeeper Godard thought to himself that he wanted to seize your body, but he didn't expect to fail.
Li Yinguang didn't explain any more and said with a smile: "You'll know how we made a profit later. Go and order five thousand copies of paper from the Black Heart Grocery Store next door, as well as the required printing ink."
After a slight pause, he added: "In addition, we will ask people to go to the slums to find some half-year-old children to serve as newsboys, and train them first!"
There is no shortage of people in the slums, but there are not many profitable jobs.
Isn’t it the same as giving money for free to a copper bull coin as a ‘delivery’ of ten newspapers?
Li Yinguang looked at the fifty or so half-year-old children who had been gathered from the slum. The common thing between them, both boys and girls, was that they all had sallow faces and thin skin.
"When you get the newspaper tomorrow, you're going to shout 'nickname, nickname, nickname. Fool Bruce inherited Old Dick's legacy. After returning to Manbach Town, he made the same stupid mistake again. He created the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' to publish the inside story about the family of the owner of the Ferocious Spider."
There are pictures and content, and they are given away for a limited time. The content is great, and they are only given away, not sold.”
"Have you learned it?"
Li Yinguang looked at the fifty or so immature children and saw them looking at him as if they were looking at fools, and nodded with satisfaction.
Often, when you think others are fools, you have already fallen into the trap and become a real fool!
The business purpose of the "Manbach Town Tabloid" is to only give away and not sell, and to make a name for itself first.
Having popularity is equivalent to having traffic. If you have traffic, why don't you worry about not making money? This chapter has been completed!
