Chapter 454 The eyes of the crowd are sharp
Soon, the time came to the next morning.
Selling newspapers is something that many people in Hong Kong must do every morning.
Some people buy financial newspapers, some buy news newspapers, some buy literary newspapers, and some buy several copies of their favorite newspapers at once.
Anyway, newspapers are not expensive.
Many newspaper companies charge money for selling newspapers, just to recover the cost of printing a newspaper.
Datou’s income mainly relies on advertising income from merchants.
The more sales, the higher the advertising fee will naturally be.
If it weren’t for the industry’s regulations and newspapers could not be free at will, “Chivalry Literature Journal” and “Chivalry News Journal” would not have any intention of collecting money from the sale of newspapers.
When "Chivalry Literature Journal" was free for a few days, I don't know how many colleagues got jealous.
Uncle Ge is a retired old man who lives in Sham Shui Sheep. He is over 70 this year.
Every morning, the first thing Uncle Ge does when he gets up early is to go out to the newsstand on the corner of the street and buy a literary newspaper. If there is any big news, he will buy another copy. Newspaper.
"Xiao Liu, give me a copy of "Chivalry Literature Journal" as usual today. This "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" has made me think about the plot after reading the latest chapter every day. Fortunately, "Chivalry Literature Journal" Newspapers know how to do things, and they must be large and sufficient." Uncle Ge shouted at the boss as soon as he arrived at the newsstand.
"Uncle Ge, please take the newspaper. Why don't you get a news paper?" The newsstand owner handed Uncle Ge a copy of "Chivalrous Literature Journal" and asked with a smile.
Uncle Ge has been a regular customer of this newsstand for ten years. If it wasn't windy and thunderous, he would basically come here to buy a newspaper in the morning.
Therefore, the boss Xiao Liu and Uncle Ge are already very familiar with each other.
Many newsstands are like this. They rely on regular customers. Although they cannot make big money, they can still live a very comfortable life.
“Then let’s get a copy of Oriental Daily.” Uncle Ge handed the money to the newsstand owner.
"Uncle Ge, you made the right purchase. Today there is another breaking news in Oriental Daily." Xiao Liu said with a smile while handing a newspaper to Uncle Ge.
"Oh? What news is so exciting?" Uncle Ge asked curiously.
"Hey, doesn't such a big headline say that Su fully acquired "Oriental Daily" and became a veritable media tycoon in Hong Kong." Xiao Liu pointed to the "Oriental Daily" in Uncle Ge's hand and replied.
"Is there such a thing? This report can't be false, right?" Uncle Ge said in surprise.
This is the case with newspapers and magazines. Some things cannot be fully believed. Many media deliberately exaggerate a thing for the sake of sales, or report some things that are false.
“The news published by Oriental Daily itself is still fake? Uncle Ge, they don’t have the guts to even identify their own boss, do they?” Xiao Liu laughed.
"That's right. It's good for Sioux City to acquire the "Oriental Daily". This newspaper is good in everything, but the background is not good. Let a flour seller be the boss. If it weren't for its relatively wide content, It's unmatched by other newspapers, and I don't want to buy it yet!" Uncle Ge took out a pair of reading glasses from his pocket and started reading directly at the newsstand.
"Who says it's not the case? The Ma brothers have done all the bad things and finally got their comeuppance." Boss Xiao Liu was also very emotional.
"That's right. This young man from Su City is pretty good. I've never heard of him doing anything bad at such a young age." Uncle Ge nodded and said while reading the newspaper. "The news of Ma Chengkun's attack has caused a lot of noise in the past two days. In the end, the entire Ma family was driven out of Xiangjiang. I didn't expect that "Oriental Daily" was actually taken over by the big boss of Su City. I just heard the news. "I was also very surprised, 13K did something good this time," Xiao Liu said with a smile.
One of Xiao Liu's relatives lost his family and his wife and separated him because of eating flour. He tried to persuade this relative at first, but unfortunately, even if he wanted to quit, how could he give up so easily? !
Therefore, Xiao Liu has a very bad impression of the Ma family.
"Xiao Liu, is there any big news today?" While Xiao Liu and Uncle Ge were chatting, more customers came to buy newspapers one after another.
"Yes, the owner of "Oriental Daily" has changed. There is a very detailed report in the newspaper. Please give me a copy."
"Okay, give me a copy of "Oriental Daily"."
As time goes by, more and more customers pass by Xiao Liu’s newsstand. Some of them did not originally intend to buy newspapers. They heard about the acquisition of "Oriental Daily" by Suzhou City, and they all thought about it. I was very curious about this thing, so I bought another copy.
"Boss, do you still have the "Oriental Daily" here? Give me a copy. It's really strange. Although the "Oriental Daily" usually sells well, it won't be sold out early in the morning?" At around ten o'clock in the morning, a retired uncle came to Xiao Liu's newsstand.
"I'm sorry, I've sold out too. Please order another newspaper." Xiao Liu said sheepishly.
Yes, he sold out before ten o'clock today, more than three hundred copies of "Oriental Daily", all sold out.
Usually he only takes one or two hundred copies of "Oriental Daily". Today, the printing factory told him that today's newspaper has breaking news and will be easy to sell. He got excited and took three hundred copies. .
Now it seems that it is not that we took too much, but that we took too little.
According to the current market situation, not to mention 300 copies, even 500 copies will be sold out.
There are countless newsstand owners like him in Hong Kong.
Many newsstands sold out of "Oriental Daily" early in the morning, and many people applauded Sioux City for taking over "Oriental Daily".
The eyes of the masses are sharp.
Although over the years, "Oriental Daily" has continued to speak well of the Ma brothers and whitewash them.
However, once you have done all the bad things, it will not take just a few years to wash away the dirt on your body.
Selling fans is completely unconscionable.
But "Oriental Daily" is a very good newspaper.
This has also caused many loyal readers of "Oriental Daily" to curse the Ma brothers while spending money to buy "Oriental Daily".
The content of "Oriental Daily" is all-inclusive, allowing readers to stay informed about world affairs without leaving home. In addition to Hong Kong, Bay and world news information, it also covers industry, economics, entertainment, sports, economics, horse racing, etc. The classics and supplements, the "Longmen Formation" where famous experts gather, the "Correct Comments" and "Kung Fu Tea" that criticize the current ills, make readers feel unhappy. It is a comprehensive, omniscient, cross-era and cross-regional newspaper.
These are incomparable to other newspapers and periodicals in Xiangjiang, which is why "Oriental Daily" can maintain such high sales.
Now that Sioux City has acquired the Oriental Daily, it seems that everyone has expected it, and everyone has given Sioux City a big thumbs up from the bottom of their hearts.
Now, I no longer have to scold the Ma family while reading the Ma family’s newspaper.
