Bright Star Road [Entertainment]

It was the first time Wang Ya knew that there was such a quiet place in the urban area of ​​Donghai, such a small private garden among several high-rise buildings.Although it is a private garden, the trees are lush and lush, and it is almost impossible to sneak a photo from the outside.And each tea room also maintains a very appropriate distance, neither feeling lonely nor disturbing.If he didn't know that this is one of Li Wei's private properties, Wang Ya even planned to apply for a membership card here.

Originally, Wang Ya thought that Li Wei would embarrass him by being late for a while, but Li Wei arrived at the tea room on time.The handmade cast iron pot on the red clay stove is gurgling and steaming, and the temperature of the good mountain spring water is just right at this time.Li Wei picked up the iron pot and rinsed the tea set and teapot one by one.Then he scooped the tea leaves from the porcelain pot into the purple clay pot with a bamboo spoon.The hot mountain spring water dances with the tea leaves, and the rich tea fragrance permeates the whole room.

"Mr. Wang, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." Li Wei handed the brewed tea to Wang Ya, "My secretary must have told you what I want. So, I want to know now The question is, do you agree?"

"Mr. Li, your request is too much. I'm afraid I can't agree to it." Wang Ya also suppressed the anger in his chest.

For a cultural publishing company, content and channels are two keys, neither can be separated.Without strong channel promotion, no matter how high-quality content is, only you know it.That's why Wang Ya was able to overcome all the opinions. When the New Century Publishing Group was fledgling, he spent huge sums of money to set up a commercial distribution company. Then, under Wang Ya's negotiations one by one, the commercial distribution company became one of the best distribution channels in the country. company.For New Century Publishing Group, the commercial distribution company is undoubtedly one of the most valuable assets.If Wang Ya dared to let other companies get involved in this company which is 100% controlled by the group, Wang Ya can be sure that his career as president will come to an end.

"Mr. Li, I can let your magazine enter our distribution channel for free, but it is absolutely impossible to sell the shares of a commercial distribution company. Not only is it impossible for me to agree, but no one will agree."

"Mr. Wang, you seem to have not figured out one thing until now. I am not here to ask you, but to ask you." Li Wei smiled and handed a thick stack of documents to Wang Ya, "Mr. Wang , what I want to know is, if this information is made public, how much damage will it bring to your group?"

Li Wei originally thought that "Entertainment Insider" would be bolder in the new century, but he didn't expect that under his investigation, he found that the boldness of "Entertainment Insider" was completely in the same line. "Entertainment Insider" is the magazine with the highest sales volume under New Century, but the magazine with the highest credibility under New Century is "Truth Weekly".This weekly magazine has always been famous for breaking the truth and targeting the powerful.In the record of "Truth Weekly" in the past ten years, nearly a hundred dignitaries were defeated by its investigation.There are even prominent figures such as the President, Secretary of State, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and even justices. Because of this, many political commentators and political analysts are proud to contribute to "Truth Weekly", which has pushed "Truth Weekly" to the domestic political weekly the first place.

However, apart from a small number of so-called informants' revelations in "Truth Weekly", a large part of them actually came from some gray means, and some even came from illegal means such as telephone monitoring and email monitoring.Li Wei believes that if this part of the investigation data is made public, the New Century Group itself will not be able to keep it.You must know that on the earth plane, similar things happened to Murdoch News Corporation.Not only were all the newspapers and periodicals involved in the case closed, but Murdoch's News Group had to be split into two themes: New News Group, which is mainly engaged in news publishing, and Fox Entertainment Group, which is in charge of entertainment media.This is also Murdoch's worst plan, no matter how bad things are, at least half of the assets can be kept.

After Wang Ya read Li Wei's information, the sweat on his forehead kept oozing out.The temperature in the tea room was actually relatively low, but Wang Ya could not feel the slightest hint of coolness.Wang Ya himself is very clear about the nature of his magazines.But this kind of thing is really low investment, but the rewards it brings make Wang Ya want to stop.The only thing he can do is to make his subordinates be careful and careful, but no matter how careful they are, they will leave traces.As long as someone is willing to spend time and money to investigate, it is not particularly difficult to find something.

Wang Ya closed the document, took a deep breath and said, "How many shares do you need to make Mr. Li treat this document as nothing? Mr. Li, please believe that our New Century Publishing Group has very strong sincerity."

"Don't worry, I'm not very interested in the commercial distribution company itself. The reason why I hope I can own a part of the shares is that you can take care of my magazine distribution for the sake of my shareholder." Li Wei He smiled and said, "I don't want a controlling stake, just give me 34% of the shares and make me a key minority shareholder."

The reason why Li Wei wants to occupy the position of a key minority shareholder is to prevent the other party from adopting a scorched earth policy or a poison pill policy to resist his own shareholding.And I have to say that although Li Wei's slash hurt Wang Ya very much, it was not enough to break his heart, and the patience passed.

"In addition, my scandal still needs to be pursued. Don't worry, I won't let them pursue it too strictly. A decent public apology and a generous compensation are enough. ——President Wang, what's more Do you want to continue drinking tea?"

"Mr. Li, I hope that what you say today is true." Wang Ya was naturally not in the mood to continue drinking, and he had to go back to the company to hold a board meeting immediately.

If the Li Wei scandal case can be settled by him alone, then the wiretapping case cannot be handled by himself alone.Everyone is responsible for the whole thing, so I can't be the one to blame.Wang Ya didn't continue to chat with Li Wei, but quickly left the tea room with the information Li Wei provided him.

Three days after Ke Fan's airport press conference, New Century Publishing Group issued a public statement.The first is to announce the apology for the troubles Li Wei and Ke Fan caused due to the unclear investigation of the Li Wei scandal, and is willing to assume all legal responsibilities; secondly, the New Century Publishing Group announced the closure of the "Entertainment Insider" magazine. The editor-in-chief of the magazine is as follows: All employees were fired; finally, the group will publish an apology announcement on major TV stations and major newspapers, and compensate Li Wei and Ke Fan for their losses.Although the final compensation has not been made public, according to the speculation of relevant media, Li Wei's compensation is at least 500 million yuan, and Ke Fan's compensation is also around one million yuan.

With the compensation and public apology, the grievances between Li Wei and New Century Publishing Group can be regarded as understood.In order to keep Li Wei silent, the New Century Publishing Group also agreed that Li Wei could become a shareholder of a commercial distribution company in his personal capacity.With the support of commercial distribution companies, the inaugural issue of Kylin Club's "Weekly Shonen Manga" was finally able to spread to nearly [-]% of retail outlets.

"When will the flash report be completed? I've been waiting for two full days!" Kirin Club is now worrying about the reader feedback survey for the first issue of "Weekly Shonen Manga".

Due to the vast territory of Huaxia, it will take at least two weeks if all the investigation reports are collected.Therefore, the editorial department of the weekly magazine will first collect the data of several first-tier cities. Firstly, the transmission speed here is fast, and secondly, it is also an important index city, so the flash reports produced are very representative.Not only can the editorial department refer to it, but the advertising department can also use this data to reward advertisers.According to Li Wei's reform measures, "Weekly Shonen Manga" only publishes 20 works in each issue.Readers will be arranged to vote for each issue, and the work that ranks last three times in a row must leave the serialization of "Weekly Shonen Comics".If this work is a so-called unpopular excellent work, then there is still a chance to continue serializing in "Shounen Manga Extra", one of the two supplements of "Weekly Shonen Manga", otherwise it will be completely cut in half.

In addition to the loss of the author, the responsible editor who is responsible for the author will also be recorded in the internal assessment.If two authors leave and are downgraded within a year, then the editor's promotion this year will be useless, and even the year-end award will be affected.And the responsible editor who voted the champion works in each issue will get an additional monthly bonus. If it is the annual list champion, then the year-end award must be the highest level, and the promotion plan will also be arranged at the top priority.Because of this, everyone takes this reader survey report very seriously.

"Is there any latest data from the distribution department? How are our sales?"

"The distribution department has already counted. As of yesterday, our first issue has issued a total of 800 million copies, including 450 million copies in first-tier cities." An assistant editor immediately replied.

Hearing this data, most of the editors nodded in satisfaction. 800 million copies is already a good start for a magazine that has just been published.And according to the distribution rules of general magazines, the first-tier cities will roughly account for the total circulation, followed by the second- and third-tier cities will account for [-]% of the circulation, and finally, small counties and rural areas will account for [-]% of the circulation.

As for overseas distribution, it is not an issue considered by the Kirin society for the time being.Generally speaking, magazines of a weekly nature must not occupy the market until at least three months after their publication, which is considered a real entry threshold.After all, there are not many restrictions on the distribution of newspapers in this era, so too many newspapers were born, and too many newspapers died.A newspaper that can last for one year is considered a "surviving" newspaper, and a newspaper that lasts for five years is considered a full-fledged member of the press and publishing union.

"Okay, the quick report is here!"

There is a dedicated reader service department within Kylin Club, and they are responsible for reader opinions and reader survey reports.This is also to check and balance the power of the editorial department, so as to prevent the internal assessment of the editorial department from being unrestricted.

The person in charge of the reader survey report said, “This is 95 survey feedbacks collected so far. Readers are 95% satisfied with this issue of our magazine, 80% of readers are willing to buy the next issue, and 20% of readers are willing to subscribe for a long time. [-]%. Next, we will announce the ranking of the [-] works in this issue. At present, we are only reporting the results quickly. Everyone should wait for the results of this newspaper before being happy or worried.”

Although Kylin Club did not announce the distribution results of the first issue to the public, everyone's distribution channels basically overlap, and with a little careful investigation, the distribution data of the other party can basically be [-] to [-]% clear.Originally, everyone laughed at Li Wei for stepping into the cultural publishing industry from a comic magazine, but now they find that they can't laugh at it anymore.Perhaps in just one to two months, Li Wei will have a magazine with a circulation of tens of millions.With such a magazine as a base, the following magazines will be easy to do.It seems that the third pillar industry of Kirin Group is about to take shape.
