In the blink of an eye, it has been almost half a month since Yuhuang Daily was launched.
In the past half month, the sales of Jade Emperor Daily have continued to rise every day, successfully seizing the market of major newspaper giants in Southeast Asia, and directly reaching the top of the list.
The sales volume of Jade Emperor Daily in Hong Kong reached an astonishing 220,000 copies, and the sales volume in Wanwan Province was as high as 350,000 copies. The sales volume in Omen did not change much, only more than 20,000 copies. After all, Omen is so
It's big, so there are only so many people.
So far, the combined daily sales of Jade Emperor Daily in Hong Kong and Aowan have exceeded 600,000 copies, surpassing Sing Tao Daily and officially becoming the world's largest summer newspaper.
Of course, this does not count the mainland. If we include newspapers from the mainland, the daily sales of Yuhuang Daily may not even be enough.
However, in the overseas newspaper industry, the sales volume of Yuhuang Daily is already very good. When Yuhuang Daily moves out of Hong Kong and Aowan in the future and officially enters the most populous countries in Southeast Asia where people live, such as Singapore, Luzon and Malaysia in Southeast Asia, it is estimated that Yuhuang Daily will be
Daily sales will exceed 2 million copies in an instant. With a relatively large population base, sales will naturally increase.
Zhang Zhonghua now feels more and more that the title of tycoon in Hong Kong Island is really not worth much, and it always belongs to this tycoon and that tycoon.
No, just over 20 days have passed, and Zhang Zhonghua has gained another title of newspaper tycoon.
In addition to the catering tycoon, retail tycoon, breeding tycoon, etc., Zhang Zhonghua probably has the most tycoon titles in Hong Kong Island. When there are more such titles, Zhang Zhonghua feels that this title is meaningless.
…
Central, Sing Tao Daily.
Hu Xian looked at the company's leaders who were a little restless, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. In less than half a month, the sales of her Sing Tao Daily began to decline sharply. As of yesterday, it had been
Jade Emperor Daily exceeded.
The local newspaper sales of Sing Tao Daily dropped from 190,000 copies to less than 100,000 copies, and the sales volume of the Wanwan Province newspaper was cut in half from the initial 240,000 copies.
If Sing Tao Daily hadn't been supported by sales in several other countries, I'm afraid the company would have gone bankrupt in less than three months, but Jade Emperor Newspaper is expected to enter other southeastern countries soon.
"Is Liang Yusheng still unwilling to come to Sing Tao Daily?"
Hu Xianxiang asked as a senior executive.
"Boss, we have already offered a high price of two hundred and a thousand words, but Liang Yusheng's will is extremely firm and has not wavered. I'm afraid it is impossible for us to lure him over."
Hu Xian's face turned ugly and he continued to ask: "What about Qiong Yao?"
Seeing the ugly face of the person in charge of the Communications Department, Hu Xian understood what he meant and continued to ask: "How is your contact with Zhang Ailing?"
"Boss, Zhang Ailing works at the University of California over there in Chou Country. She said she doesn't have time to write articles now."
"Where's Ni Kuang?"
"Ni Kuang is now invited to Oriental Daily by the Ma brothers. I don't know what price the Jin and Ma brothers offered, but they were able to beat Ni Kuang."
Hearing this, Hu Xian was very helpless. There are only these well-known writers in Southeast Asia now, and none of them can be found.
However, Sing Tao Daily relies on serialization to maintain sales. Once the current serialization ends, a large part of the people who follow the series will definitely leave. Hu Xian cannot imagine the consequences of that.
The editor-in-chief of Sing Tao Daily was also very helpless. He did not expect that Sing Tao Newspaper would come to an end so quickly. Faced with the demise of Sing Tao Newspaper, no one could help the building to collapse. Now the entire newspaper office is in ruins.
People are panicked.
Hu Xian gave a helpless smile and had no choice but to get up and leave the conference room and returned to his office.
"Well, Zhang Sheng must be lamenting in his office now, lamenting that there is no one in Hong Kong who can fight, right? Haha, he lamented that there is no one who can fight, but there is no one who can use him. This
How ironic!"
Hu Xian murmured to himself, thinking of the past and feeling very emotional.
Her father, Mr. Hu Wenhu, was the world-famous ‘Taiwan Balm King’ and ‘Newspaper King’ at that time. His father, Mr. Hu Wenhu, had been very fond of her since she was a child.
Hu Xian lived under the loving protection of his parents. He had lived a life without worries about food and clothing since he was a child. He should have had the opportunity to receive a good education.
On September 5, 1954, Hu Wenhu suffered a heart attack during the trip. Before his death, Hu Xian handed over Sing Tao Newspaper to Hu Xian. The 21-year-old Hu Xian was appointed to take charge of Sing Tao Newspaper. Through continuous hard work day and night, he was able to
I gained everyone's recognition and experienced many ups and downs along the way.
"Boss, the front desk phone number said that Lin Xingzhi, the general manager of Yuhuang Daily, just came to the company. He said he wanted to see you for something."
The assistant knocked on the door and walked into Hu Xian's office and said softly to Hu Xian.
"Haha, Lin Xingzhi is here? What does he want to do here at this time? Is he here to show off his power or does he want to buy our Sing Tao Daily?"
Hu Xian sneered and said.
"It's impossible to show off one's power. I dismissed Lin Xingzhi before when he announced his destiny. He is an educated man.
I'm afraid that Lin Xingzhi came to our newspaper this time because he wanted to buy our Xingdao Newspaper, but this should be Zhang Sheng's intention. If Jade Emperor Newspaper buys us, they will enter the Southeast Asian market more quickly."
The assistant said.
"Zhang Sheng must nod, go and greet him and see what chips Zhang Sheng can offer!"
After Hu Xian said these words, he seemed to have aged several years. Although he was not willing to give in, what could he do?
In normal business competition, if your skills are inferior to others, you lose, and there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.
Soon Lin Xingzhi entered Hu Xian's office under the leadership of his assistant. After the assistant left, Lin Xingzhi took a moment to look at the strong woman in front of him.
Born in Yangon, Myanmar in 1933, Hu Xian took over Sing Tao Newspaper in 1954 at the age of 20 and became the queen of Southeast Asia's newspaper industry in more than ten years.
"Hello, Ms. Hu!"
Lin Xingzhi lowered his posture and said hello to Hu Xian.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Lin Sheng is here, please sit down, would you like tea or coffee?"
Hu Xian also said very politely.
"Just plain water will do, thank you."
After the two were silent for a while, Hu Xian lost his temper and asked: "If Lin Sheng comes to Xingdao Newspaper this time, just tell him directly. We won't use those meandering words."
"Now that Ms. Hu has said so, let me get straight to the point. The main news fields of our two newspapers are the same. If both sides compete, both sides will lose. We, Yuhuang Newspaper, intend to acquire Singdao Newspaper. What do you think of it, Ms. Hu?
?”
Lin Xingzhi said politely.
"You are being modest. The fish like Xingdao Newspaper will definitely die, but the network of Jade Emperor Newspaper will definitely not be broken. After all, Jade Emperor Daily is backed by the Jade Emperor Group. The final result is not that both sides will suffer, but that I will die."
You are hurt. You just don’t know what conditions Zhang Sheng offered for the acquisition of Xingdao Newspaper?" Hu Xian asked with a smile.
When Lin Xingzhi heard this, he understood that Hu Xian was somewhat dissatisfied with the Yuhuang Daily's backing of the Yuhuang Group to carry out dimensionality reduction attacks on them, but he had accepted the reality, so he said: "When I came here, Zhang Sheng gave me
Two options: The first option is for our Yuhuang Newspaper to fully acquire Singtao Newspaper at a premium of 30%;
The second option is for Mr. Hu to invest in Yuhuang Newspaper with Singdao Newspaper and serve as the vice president of our Jade King Newspaper."
"Buy a stake in Jade Emperor Newspaper at the age of 18? I wonder what your quotation for Singtao Newspaper is?"
Hu Xian became interested when he heard that he could invest in Jade Emperor Newspaper.
"Well, this is the plan. The investigation has not started yet. If Mr. Hu has this intention, the Group Finance Department will evaluate Singtao Newspaper."
"Then what are the assets of your Jade Emperor Daily?"
"Yuhuang Newspapers has spun off its printing department and will establish a separate publishing house in the future to serve various companies in the group. Zhang Sheng invested US$10 million in Yuhuang Newspapers to develop Yuhuang Newspapers."
Lin Xingzhi introduced.
'He is worthy of being the richest man in Yanxia. He invested 10 million US dollars in just a newspaper company. It is really too rich. My Sing Tao Daily has only had assets of 30 to 40 million Hong Kong dollars after more than 30 years of development.'
Hu Xian thought with some slander.
"The industry and market value of our Sing Tao Newspaper in Southeast Asia is at least 50 million Hong Kong dollars. I wonder how Mr. Zhang plans to get Sing Tao News to invest in it?"
Hu Xian asked.
"I'm afraid this issue needs to be discussed by Ms. Hu and Zhang Sheng in person, but Yuhuang Newspaper will be split and reorganized later, and the newspaper's reporter team will also be spun off to establish an independent news agency under the group.
Even if a few years later, my boss tells me that the Jade Emperor Group will launch its own satellite to serve the group, I will not be surprised."
Lin Xingzhi said with a wry smile.
The Yuhuang Group is a whole. The news agency is not just about news, but more like an intelligence agency. It is not just a news platform for newspapers.
This time he came to Xingdao Newspaper Industry more to explore the situation. If the acquisition was not possible, he would have to implement another plan. Judging from Hu Xian's current attitude, it is probably possible.
Hu Xian was obviously shocked by Lin Xingzhi's words. Sing Tao Newspaper and Jade Emperor Daily were not on the same level at all. Jade Emperor Newspaper was stronger than Sing Tao Newspaper not just in sales channels in Japan and Europe.
It's more about long-term considerations.
"There is no problem with the Jade Emperor Newspaper after the merger, but can Sing Tao Daily be retained? Can I make additional investment?"
Hu Xian asked.
"Additional investment is definitely no problem. In the future, Yuhuang Newspaper will also acquire or merge newspapers in Europe, and the management of Jade King Newspaper will also have option shares.
The trademark of Sing Tao Daily can certainly be retained according to the owner's wishes, but it is expected to become a purely foreign language newspaper, and Jade Emperor Newspaper will also publish new newspapers, all of which will be international news."
Lin Xingzhi introduced.
Hu Xian would be very happy if Sing Tao Daily could be retained and developed. In this way, he would not have thrown away his father's foundation. If Sing Tao Daily became a global newspaper, his father would probably be very happy.
Hu Xian and Lin Xingzhi chatted in the office for more than two hours. They also learned about the development plan of Jade Emperor Newspaper and gradually began to look forward to joining Jade Emperor Newspaper.
After Lin Xingzhi left the Xingdao newspaper, Hu Xian made herself a cup of coffee. Crisis turned into an opportunity, and she was still the queen of the newspaper industry.
Soon the assistant walked into the boss's office anxiously and felt relieved when he saw that the boss was in a good mood. It seemed that things had turned around and Zhang Sheng had not done everything right.
Hu Xian asked the finance department to prepare the company's asset information. It can only be kept secret until the matter is successful. Kong Huanxi will have a greater impact on everyone, and the company will panic if the morale is lost.
How much additional capital do I need to invest in the stock? I have accumulated a net worth of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars in more than ten years. However, I would like to discuss how to invest in the stock in detail after meeting with Zhang Sheng.
The next day, Hu Xian took the initiative to bring a close financial person to the Jade Emperor Building to meet with Zhang Zhonghua.
Hu Xian looked at the Jade Emperor Building in front of him. Well, it was called Lishan Building before. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Sheng had dumped the big boss of Hong Kong Island so hard that he couldn't even see his back.
Hu Xian couldn't help but laugh bitterly, what a monster.
After Zhang Zhonghua received the notice from the front desk, he personally greeted Lin Xingzhi at the elevator door on the top floor. Zhang Zhonghua also had special respect for the tycoon who took over the queen of the newspaper industry at the age of 21.
"Hello Ms. Hu, welcome to Yuhuang Group."
"Hello Zhang Sheng, I haven't seen you for a few years and you still have the same style, no, your style is even more eye-catching."
Hu Xian said with a smile.
"You are laughing, please."
"The Jade Emperor Group really deserves its reputation. There are snacks and drinks everywhere. The working atmosphere is definitely the best in the world, not only in Asia."
Hu Xian had long heard that the working atmosphere of the Jade Emperor Group was very good, so he was naturally amazed when he saw it.
"I also provide a comfortable and pleasant working environment for everyone, so that everyone can be motivated to work hard."
Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.
After some polite greetings in the conference room, Hu Xian got straight to the point and said: "I have already thought about Manager Lin's previous proposal. I want Sing Tao Newspaper to invest in Jade Emperor Newspaper. Here is the asset information of Sing Tao Newspaper across Southeast Asia.
The total assets are about HK$25 million."
"Mr. Hu, just tell me what the market value of Sing Tao Newspaper is."
Zhang Zhonghua did not accept the document handed over by Hu Xian, but said directly.
"The average daily profit of Sing Tao Newspaper is about HK$110,000. Adding in the industry, channels, customers, advertisers, etc., the market value of Sing Tao Newspaper is about more than HK$55 million."
Of course, this is now. Without Jade Emperor Daily, Sing Tao Daily's valuation would be higher, and its daily advertising fees would also be a large amount of income. If Jade Emperor Daily attracts advertising investment, it would be even more miserable.
However, the valuation may be even lower over time.
"Fifty-five million, then let's calculate the premium as HKD 65 million. What do you think, Ms. Hu?"
Zhang Zhonghua asked Hu Xian.
"Okay, but I don't know how to invest in Jade Emperor Newspaper Company?"
Sixty-five million Hong Kong dollars also met my psychological expectations. If Jade Emperor Daily didn't exist, there would be no need to talk about 100 million. There is no way.
