Siheyuan: Qin Huairu relies on me

Zhao Xiyan ignored some of the resentful looks and walked straight to the office.

The four Vajras under his command and Jin Youwei all followed closely.

"Brother, do you have anything else to say?" Zhao Xiyan looked at Jin Youwei and said.

"I want to cooperate with your newspaper." Jin Youwei said seriously, "I studied your "Workers' Mutual Aid" for an entire night and I think it's very promising... I'm also going to add it to the back of our newspaper."

"Your New Youth isn't any good." Zhao Xiyan took out a cigarette and smoked it. "This kind of thing requires timeliness... You only publish one edition a month, and other people's stuff is long gone."

"Well."

Jin Youwei fell into deep thought.

That’s right, the newspaper is only published once a month, and the opportunity has already gone cold.

"Brother, your newspaper is already doing well." Zhao Xiyan consoled him, "If you can improve the content even more... that would be better than anything else."

"How about I outsource a few editors to you?" Jin Youwei said with a wry smile, "I've looked at your content layout...many articles are just smooth in words and sentences, and the rest is useless. Your editing skills are not good enough."

"I personally finalized this issue of the newspaper." Zhao Xiyan said slowly.

"Ah? You..."

Jin Youwei's eyes widened.

With Zhao Xiyan's level, it's not an exaggeration to call him a "talented scholar", right? He didn't believe that Zhao Xiyan couldn't see the level of those people.

"Brother, every newspaper has its own positioning." Zhao Xiyan said seriously, "Our newspaper is for workers. The workers' education level is not very high...so we try to select some simple articles for them to read."

"Now the literacy campaign is also underway, and the quality of the articles will gradually improve... Don't worry, I know what's going on."

"It's true that 'the waves behind push the waves ahead'." Jin Youwei sighed and joked, "Didn't you say that half a month would be free? How come you suddenly set a price... and it's so expensive."

Generally speaking, daily newspapers are priced at two cents, or at most three cents. Only monthly and weekly magazines are more expensive.

"I've thought about this for a long time. People nowadays don't have money... If I give it to them for free, it will be difficult to sell it at a high price." Zhao Xiyan sighed, "Instead of doing this... I might as well test the market's reaction. If the reaction is not good, I will adjust the price."

……

Jin Youwei was silenced again.

He has been working in the newspaper industry for decades, but he hasn't found a young person who can run a newspaper yet.

"Although it's only the first day that our newspaper has been sold, it's more or less on the right track." Zhao Xiyan said seriously, "Don't worry, you can't give up your literacy work... This is the most important thing in our propaganda department's work."

"Yes."

An Xin immediately straightened her chest.

Zhao Xiyan took a glance and quickly looked away, but An Xin still noticed it sharply.

This guy.

An Xin's pretty face flushed and she leaned back on the stool.

"Li Li, this time, apart from the main version of the novel, I will not be involved in other work... You have to do it independently." Zhao Xiyan ordered.

"it is good."

Li Li nodded.

"Lao Wang, go collect the information as early as possible this afternoon... and have the security departments of each factory release the news. Our information from the previous day only ends after lunch."

"no problem."

Wang Dongchun nodded hurriedly.

"Director Lou, you should also pay attention to your work here... You can't give up on your subordinates just because they can't do it. That's not appropriate." Zhao Xiyan warned, "If you do it yourself every time, then I won't recruit any announcers."

"I see."

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and responded.

"Okay, let's all get out."

Zhao Xiyan smiled and waved his hand, and Li Li and others filed out.

After the door was closed, he looked at Jin Youwei and said, "Brother, are you going to introduce some advertisements to me?"

"Screw you."

Jin Youwei quickly stood up with his bag, "I'm still introducing advertising to you? I'm almost starving to death... I warn you, if you dare to poach my customers, I'll fight you."

After he finished speaking, he ran away quickly.

Zhao Xiyan looked at his back and couldn't help but have some thoughts.

Administration Building.

After the meeting, Li Weimin opened the door and saw Zhao Xiyan standing there with a smile on his face.

"Hey, brother, you are a rare guest."

"Brother, I'm here to ask you for help." Zhao Xiyan said with a smile.

Li Weimin was immediately happy when he heard this.

"It's rare for you to ask me for help. Just tell me what you want."

"Brother, you know I just came to the city and I don't know many people here." Zhao Xiyan sighed, "Our newspaper sales are pretty good, at least today... We just want to find some advertisers."

“Advertisers?”

Li Weimin was slightly stunned, and then he immediately thought about how to make a fortune.

But before he could open his mouth, Zhao Xiyan presented him with a big gift.

"Brother, how about this... I'll give you the advertising business? As long as the price meets our psychological expectations, I don't care about the premium or anything like that."

As he spoke, he handed over a piece of paper.

Li Weimin just glanced at it and his eyes widened immediately, "Brother, your price is not cheap."

"This is the price I quoted based on the sale price of 10,000 newspapers. It's not too high." Zhao Xiyan waved his hand and said, "This is the bottom price... As long as I get the money, I don't care about other things."

"That's not impossible."

Li Weimin chuckled and said, "Brother, this is easy to do... but hard to say. Do you understand?"

"If I didn't understand, I wouldn't have come to you, right?" Zhao Xiyan chuckled, "You can start looking now... After all, it will take a few more days for our newspaper sales to stabilize."

"Okay, then I'll help you." Li Weimin said happily.

"Then I won't disturb the factory director's rest. I'll get busy first."

Zhao Xiyan smiled.

"I send you."

Li Weimin personally escorted Zhao Xiyan out the door, then returned to the office, picked up the quotation, thought for a moment, and made a phone call.

"Lao Jiang, can you help me find the price of an advertisement with a daily sales of 10,000 copies..."

"Yes, yes, yes. Our factory has a newspaper."

"How much? This high... No, I get it."

……

After Li Weimin hung up the phone, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

Wow, Zhao Xiyan’s offer is 10% lower than the market price.

This guy is great. He even gives gifts in such a subtle way.

If Zhao Xiyan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely roll his eyes. There aren't many things that need advertising right now... and he, Zhao Xiyan, doesn't know anyone.

In this case, it would be better to let Li Weimin do the job and just pay him some business fees.

evening.

Red Star Printing Factory.

The four Vajras under Zhao Xiyan looked at the newspaper, then looked at Zhao Xiyan, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Just say what you want to say..." Zhao Xiyan scolded with a smile.

Li Li and An Xin looked at each other and said through gritted teeth, "Minister, isn't it too risky for us to sell 50,000 copies at once?"

"Take a risk? No, I have to test the limits of the market."

Zhao Xiyan shook his head.

For this matter, he even went to the street office to check the population situation.

Now, the entire city of Sijiu has a population of 4 million, and the entire Dongcheng District has a population of 1.18 million.

With so many people, it might not be that difficult to digest 50,000 newspapers.
