This is why Zhang Zhonghua wanted to enter the newspaper industry. Unfortunately, he is not yet able to enter the media field.
Although Zhang Zhonghua has already started to make relevant preparations, compared with the big boss in front of him, it is like an ant drinking a bit of an elephant. He can endure the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the world.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don’t bully young people into poverty!
"Zhang Sheng, our "Sing Tao Daily" wants to serialize your story, but what are the requirements?"
Hu Xian asked directly without beating around the bush.
"Ms. Hu, I have actually acquired two newspapers and plan to enter the media field in a few years."
Zhang Zhonghua told Hu Xian his plan honestly.
“I understand that businessmen, especially those who intend to become bigger and stronger, will find ways to enter the media field and gain a certain say.
But after all, the income from newspapers is really low now, so I thought of serializing it to boost sales.
When Mr. Zhang enters the newspaper industry in the future, we can also cooperate."
Hu Xian's words made Zhang Zhonghua think deeply. Now, not only on Hong Kong Island, but also in most places, nine out of ten newspapers are on the street. Countless ones open every day, and countless ones close down. Not everyone can succeed in this industry.
, if you have the help of Xingdao, you can grow quickly.
"However, this Titanic is not good. I promised that this book would not be sold to the public. If I break my promise, it will have a great impact on my CFC restaurant."
Zhang Zhonghua said to Hu Xian with a wry smile.
"I understand Zhang Sheng's thoughts. I wonder if Zhang Sheng has any other works. If you can write the book Titanic, you won't have other works, right?
If Zhang Sheng hands it over to our Sing Tao Newspaper, I will serialize it in Chinese newspapers throughout Southeast Asia, and after the serialization is completed, we can help Zhang Sheng publish it."
Hu Xian knew that Titanic could not be serialized. She had done enough homework before coming. She just wanted to get Zhang Zhonghua's next book.
"Well, thank you Ms. Hu for your understanding! I do have a film, but it's not a romance, it's science fiction."
Zhang Zhonghua took out a part of Liu's Three-Body Problem that he had written in the past few days from his drawer and gave it to Hu Xian.
"Science fiction?"
Hu Xian became interested. Ever since Apollo released the moon landing plan, science fiction has become completely popular all over the world. However, in the cultural radiation zone of the hot summer of East Asia, nothing too eye-catching has appeared.
After taking what was obviously a manuscript, Hu Xian read it carefully. As a result, the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and the more excited he became.
"It's amazing, it's amazing! Zhang Sheng's book must be handed over to our Xingdao Newspaper."
Hu Xian excitedly held the manuscript and said to Zhang Zhonghua, "Although there is only a small part, this book is simply fantastic."
"Of course, but it's only in Chinese, after all..."
Although Sing Tao Newspaper is very powerful, it only covers the entire Southeast Asia region and nothing else.
"This... ok! What do you think about the remuneration and share of the work, Mr. Zhang?"
Hearing Zhang Zhonghua's words, Hu Xian was stunned for a moment and then understood.
"There is also a share of the royalties for the serialization. Just pay it as you see fit. To be honest, the market for Chinese-language books is not very big at the moment."
Zhang Zhonghua said.
"If it is serialized in Southeast Asia, it will be calculated as 1,000 yuan for 1,000 words. As for the share, I will give it according to your current highest standard. How about it?"
Hu Xian thought for a moment, and then Liu told him his bargaining chip.
"Well, no problem, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Zhang Zhonghua said.
Hu Xian is very sincere. In the 1970s, a thousand words and one hundred dollars was considered high. Hu Xian was already very sincere when he offered a thousand words and a thousand dollars. To be honest, it was too low to give. Zhang Zhonghua
I don’t like it either.
Hu Xian's connections can naturally make it clear to Zhang Zhonghua's complicated background, and Zhang Zhonghua has never concealed anything.
Zhang Zhonghua's senior brothers in various major societies are enough to make anyone throw a trap, so Hu Xian did not dare to force Zhang Zhonghua.
"I hope Mr. Zhang will think of our Xingdao Newspaper Industry if he has anything else to say in the future."
Hu Xian asked curiously.
"It's natural. If our CFC enters Southeast Asia in the future, we will need the help of Sing Tao Newspaper. And when the time comes, I will also write romances and publish them, which can be regarded as promoting the CFC restaurant."
Zhang Zhonghua agreed to Hu Xian's request without hesitation. He naturally hoped that Sing Tao Newspaper could compete with other newspapers in Hong Kong Island and that he could seize the opportunity to enter the newspaper industry after many scuffles.
"Sheng Zhang really did everything he could to develop the CFC restaurant. However, our audience at Sing Tao Newspaper is not many young women, but if you want to sell books, our channels can help you cover the entire Southeast Asian market."
Hu Xian said helplessly that she finally understood that this handsome boy wrote a book just to help promote his restaurant.
Then Hu Xian thought about the ending of Titanic, where Jack and Rose were separated forever, and felt uncomfortable in her heart. After all, you, a strong woman, are also women, and women are emotional.
At the same time, she also mourned for all her female compatriots. Some of you will be sad and sad in the future.
"Then I would like to thank Ms. Hu. When the time comes, I can hand over the romance book to you for operation, and even hand over the entire Southeast Asian market to you.
There is currently no market for romance in Europe and the United States, and it is mainly popular in Southeast Asia."
Zhang Zhonghua said cheerfully.
Zhang Zhonghua is not talking nonsense about this. There is definitely a market in South Korea, but it is too exclusive. Readers in Japan are too strange. It is not a local author who can't understand romance at all. Every book he publishes is sold out. It seems that it is only available in the Hong Kong and Aowan area.
Southeast Asian girls like this thing, and it shouldn't be the case for all girls, young women, and women.
"No problem, thank you Zhang Sheng."
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain. Hu Xian smiled very happily. In the past few years, she had been worried about Xingdao Newspaper Industry.
"I should be the one thanking you. After all, your Sing Tao newspaper reaches the widest audience in Southeast Asia. Only with your help can my books sell better."
Zhang Zhonghua was generous in his praise.
In the future, Sing Tao Newspaper will also expand beyond Southeast Asia into Europe and the United States, becoming the largest Chinese newspaper in the world. However, "Ming Pao" is mainly popular in Hong Kong Island.
"Thank you Zhang Sheng for your compliment. We only have this little influence in Southeast Asia. If you need help, you can always come to us."
Hu Xian said with a smile.
Newspapers only earn a reputation, and it is difficult to maintain without advertising fees. Hu Xian sighed deeply in his heart, no one knows about his hard work.
"Okay, I'll trouble Mr. Hu if necessary."
The two exchanged some polite words, and Zhang Zhonghua gave the Chinese manuscript to Hu Xian. Hu Xian readily wrote the check, and then the two signed the authorization contract.
The newspaper will promote it first, and will start serializing it in about a week. Looking at the check in my hand, although it is not a lot, it can be used to buy a store, which is better than nothing.
As for the books, they will have to wait until the serialization is completed before they are printed and put on the market. Then we will see how much royalties there are.
Zhang Zhonghua was very depressed when he looked at the rain outside the window, which was affecting his business. Then Zhang Zhonghua ordered the administrative department to issue notices to all branches about some safety precautions during the rainy season and to do a good job in flood prevention.
