I Am a Nobleman in England

"Of course, of course, boss, you are the youngest billionaire in the world. Just take out some pocket money, it's enough to support the newspaper office, hehe, boss, drink tea..."

Hearing Arthur's words, Jerry, who was completely relieved, immediately changed into a flattering face, and continued to pour water for Arthur very attentively, not forgetting to pat his pony.

"Haha, you really—"

Seeing Jerry's face, Arthur couldn't laugh or cry and didn't know what to say.

"Okay, let's talk about the recent situation of the newspaper office. I have also invested money, and the newspaper office has also reformed. I have to show some achievements, so that I feel that my money is not wasted, and the money lost is worth it, right?"

"Ahem...hehe." Jerry Fuller laughed awkwardly again, then sat upright, and began to report to his young and rich Earl in a serious manner.

"...Since it was changed to morning release and a series of promotion and marketing, the circulation has just risen to 100,000 copies. This is definitely an incredible achievement for Hampshire with a population of just over 900,000.

The "Pink Sports" released every Saturday, according to your revision requirements, the new elements added have indeed been loved and sought after by fans, especially football babies, Keeley Hazel and Emily Shaw The period was even sold out, and we had to reprint 10,000 copies. . .

The number of real-name registered users on the newspaper's website has exceeded 30,000, and from these more than 30,000 registered users, we have received more than 100,000 pieces of news and used more than 1,000 pieces of valuable local news.

The number of daily visits to the website has also exceeded 300,000, and the total number of visits is approaching 20 million. All the advertising spaces on the website have been sold, bringing a total of 3.5 million pounds in advertising fees to the newspaper. . . "

"Well, to be honest, when I saw these data, I really couldn't understand why I still lost money..." Arthur said helplessly.

"No way, our expenses are also high. Not only do we not make money by engaging in subscription promotions, but we have to subsidize them. The stars and celebrities invited by the magazine, models, not only the round-trip travel expenses, accommodation expenses, catering expenses, makeup artists and stylists, etc. All aspects cost money.

However, the effect is also very significant. Now the sales volume of our "Fanse Sports" in the UK has also risen sharply, and the influence has also been greatly improved. I believe that it will not be long before the magazine's popularity and influence will surpass "442" , The authority of our year-end selection list last year surpassed that of "442", which was widely recognized by the public and reprinted and reported by major media. "

Speaking of good things,

The smile on Jerry's face widened.

"Hehe, not bad." Arthur naturally hoped that he would have a professional and authoritative magazine under his banner. You must know that the more professional and authoritative it is, the greater the power to guide public opinion and the more it can influence people.

"Aren't you nervous, isn't the purpose of my 'sudden' arrival this time?"

Hearing his boss' tone of emphasis on the word 'suddenly', Jerry smiled a little embarrassedly, and waited brightly for Arthur to reveal the answer.

"The purpose of my visit this time is indeed related to the issue we discussed before, which is the demise of the paper media. My view on this is very clear. The paper media will not die, but they will be eliminated. Those low-end newspapers are doomed. will disappear, but the best newspapers will be more authoritative and better under the stimulus of the crisis.

But in the end, it will become a niche, just like the radio in the past. It may not be accurate to say that, after all, the radio is doing very well now.

It must be admitted that a series of advantages such as fast Internet transmission speed and low cost have crushed paper media. However, in my opinion, the formality, rigor, and depth of newspaper information are not available on the Internet.

Considering the reality, more information on the Internet is entertainment rather than official. It is full of all kinds of information, and the true and false are all intertwined in a mess, making it impossible to distinguish the true from the false.

Browsing and browsing the Internet, you can find that what is replaced by the Internet is not the newspaper, but the entertainment and advertising content in the newspaper. appearing in abundance on the web.

At the beginning, the reason why I didn't sell or stop publishing the "Echo", which was losing money every year, was actually to see if the idea in my mind was feasible.

Now the facts have proved that it is undoubtedly feasible, that is, regional newspapers can not only survive, but also live well, as long as they grasp a little bit and insist on serving local readers.

Here I have to praise you a few words, you can think of reports on various local bars, ye shop features and other content that young people are interested in, attracting young people to find interesting places and projects from our "Echo", This is definitely a golden idea. "Arthur was not stingy with his praise, which made the smile on Jerry's face even brighter.

"So, boss, what do you mean..."

"I mean, since we have become the only regional newspaper in Hampshire, I don't think there is any need for other regional newspapers in Hampshire. I am going to annex the other small newspapers in the county. I will have one voice in Hampshire, and that is the voice of the Echo!"

Arthur looked sharply and brightly at Jerry Fuller, who was shocked when he heard the news.

"Boss, are you serious?" Jerry Fuller has already started to get excited. To be honest, he is really on a roller coaster now. He never thought that his boss was going to acquire a newspaper in the county. A voice , God, happiness came too suddenly!

"Of course I'm serious. This is just the beginning. I'm going to buy more regional newspapers. However, I think it's better to start from my home base of Hampshire. After all, here, we already have strong advantage.

After integrating the newspapers in Hampshire and consolidating our position, we are slowly expanding to nearby counties. My ultimate goal is to have a local newspaper in every major town in the UK. To let my influence and voice, Infiltrating every corner of the UK! "

Arthur bluntly expressed his ambition, which also made Jerry Fuller completely excited. To be honest, if his boss really wants to do this, he can definitely do it. After all, the Earl is not short of pounds. of.

"Boss, it doesn't take much. As long as we can control a hundred local newspapers, not to mention guiding public opinion so far away, we can guarantee the profit alone. If our Echo really becomes the only voice in Hampshire, then I can follow You guarantee that not only will you not lose money, but you will definitely make a profit!

Because people have no choice but to choose us! "Jerry Fuller said excitedly with his eyes shining.
