Chapter 356: The newspaper is about to be put into trial operation
Don't care about Liu Bei for now, how should I spend the days when there is no afternoon tea in the future......
Liu Bei's departure from Xu Du did not have much impact on Cao Cao's camp, whether she rebelled or obediently guarded Peijun, it didn't make much sense. There are too few useful civil and military forces under Liu Bei's command, so few that Xun Yu or Guo Jia didn't pay attention to them.
"Anyway, how about the 10,000 White Wave Thieves captives we sent her?" At the time of tea one afternoon, which should have been November, Wang Yong suddenly remembered the 10,000 captives.
"Speaking of which, I haven't paid much attention to it during this time. A group of arrogant and unruly guys, it doesn't make sense for us to keep them, Liu Bei will take them in if he wants to, they are all used to being thieves, even if they are incorporated into soldiers, there will be all kinds of problems. Cao Cao didn't care at all, and took a sip of black tea.
The women in the White Wave Thieves, whose crimes are more serious, have been dealt with separately, and the others have been arranged to marry meritorious soldiers and officers. The people who were sent to Liu Bei were almost all men from the White Wave Thief.
After a pause, he looked at Wang Yong and asked, "Then again, how is the newspaper you said you want to run?" ”
"The lord should be able to see it too...... After all, the construction site is opposite Sikong Mansion...... The subordinates plan to build a two-story building, and at the same time, more than a dozen civilian scholars have been recruited through the Masterhouse, and they are being trained how to write press releases and interviews. The ink used for printing has been improved, and I have to say that the efficiency of the house is really good...... However, the improvement of the printing press was not an overnight thing. Wang Yong shook his head.
The current printing press is already good, but the printing speed and efficiency are not up to his expectations. According to the current situation, at least 20 such printing presses need to be started at the same time to print 100,000 copies of the newspaper in one day. Of course, it is also possible that he is a little ambitious, after all, the initial 10,000 copies may be enough.
"You have to hurry, it's been almost two months, and it is estimated that the imperial doctor in the palace can already diagnose it......" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong, and then reminded.
Indeed, two months have passed in the blink of an eye, and if it continues, not only Hua Tuo, but also ordinary doctors, can also take the pulse of joy. At that time, the news that Liu Xie is pregnant without marriage will be spread, and if he can't cooperate with the guidance of public opinion, then maybe the rumors outside will change from 'a holy baby from heaven' to gossip news like 'Your Majesty has a wild man'.
After all, everyone prefers this kind of news with gossip colors to some orthodox news.
"Therefore, the subordinates expect that the newspaper will be up and running in advance in three days, and the lord, the principal of the newspaper, should also be determined, and the subordinate is just a ......cook," Wang Yong reported a little helplessly.
"Also, everything is set up in the framework, so it doesn't hurt to test run it in advance...... Well, I'll send someone to you tomorrow. Nothing, I'm going to get back to work! Cao Cao put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Wang Yong.
"Yes, my subordinates obey!" Wang Yong nodded, then packed up the tray and turned to leave.
"So, who will be assigned to take over this important position?" Cao Cao was the beginning, and the person who was the main person had a headache. This thing is to control public opinion, so it must be a trustworthy person. Otherwise, once it falls into the hands of some people, maybe the blade of public opinion will be directed towards you.
Leaving Sikong Mansion in the afternoon, Wang Yong went directly to the newspaper office and summoned all the wind to collect it.
"The above has sent a message, let's get up and running as soon as possible, and in three days, in three days, the whole newspaper will be put into trial operation. And now, I'm going to give you three days to go out and pick up the wind. Collect all sorts of anecdotes in the local area and pass them on. Wang Yong looked at these civilian scholars and instructed them.
"Subordinates obey!" These scholars cherished this opportunity very much, so they naturally did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly responded.
To say that in this world, there are probably three kinds of readers. A kind of person who was born in a wealthy family, learned from a young family, has complete scriptures and annotations, and can be self-taught only by relying on those knowledge passed down from generation to generation;
One is the family of the landlord and the tyrant, there may be an official in a certain generation in the family, anyway, there is no one who can enter the court, then it is not a family, and it cannot reach the level of a wealthy family, which is called a cold family, that is to say, the cold family may not be a very poor person.
The last type is this kind of civilian scholar. Born in a commoner, with the idea of changing his fate, he seized the opportunity to find a way to read, but fortunately, the online bound books have been sold, and the price is not too high, several people buy a copy together, study and discuss with each other, and are self-taught, this is the kind of person.
In the end, it is the lowest existence, so they can endure hardships, and cherish every opportunity to learn, and their enthusiasm for learning is higher than that of the poor. But in the same way, there is a lack of promotion in the circle, and there are not many of them who can be outstanding, even if they occasionally appear, they are only as small officials, or county magistrates in lower counties, or even pavilion chiefs or something.
The newspaper is an institution directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the salaries of the editor and editor-in-chief are not low, not to mention the two positions of president and vice president. And with this place as a springboard, you may not be able to enter other yamen as officials in the future, this is the foot of the Son of Heaven!
"Edit!" Wang Yong looked at several editors in the newspaper, they were all found through the house of everything, "You are responsible for reviewing these manuscripts, and then helping to revise and polish them." It's better to exaggerate a little and attract someone's eye! ”
Then he looked at a few people and continued: "The news of your wind collection can also be appropriately exaggerated, but it must not be distorted. If you deliberately exaggerate, scandalize or fiction in order to attract attention, and I find out, and the circumstances are serious, I will directly dismiss you! ”
"Subordinates obey!" The reporters and editors immediately replied that it was a matter of the future, and they had to be cautious.
"The last editor-in-chief!" Wang Yong looked at Zhang Song, because no one transferred him over, his ability to never forget, is really suitable to be the editor-in-chief, "Brother Ziqiao Xian, the editors below will recommend the manuscript, and you will review it, and then determine which ones can be published in the newspaper." After all, the layout is so big, it can't be too wasteful. ”
"There's no problem with this!" Zhang Song nodded, he is only seventeen this year, and it is good to accumulate experience in the newspaper. For Wang Yong, he actually has a very good impression, one is that the other party recommended him, and the other is that the other party has not disliked himself because he is ugly from dating to the present.
He is also considered an outlier, and he should be regarded as a revert, so he is not handsome or handsome. If Huang Zhong and Yu Ban are like that, it doesn't matter, but they have sharp beaks and monkey gills, and they are completely ugly men in this era.
In the past, the people around him disliked him, if it weren't for his talent and his brother Zhang Su's attention, I was afraid that he would have committed suicide in shame. Even so, the experience of being looked down upon since he was a child made him very eager for the recognition of others, Wang Yong recommended him, and did not dislike him when he came into contact, which made him very pleased.
As the saying goes, 'the one who is a confidant dies', Zhang Song will naturally do his best to complete Wang Yong's explanation.
"I served as the vice president for a period of time, and it is estimated that Ziqiao will be in charge of this position in the future! But the president will be confirmed tomorrow, so be prepared! Wang Yong reminded.
"Yes!" Although everyone should be, but there is no bottom in their hearts, there is a president from the sky, God knows if it is good or not.
