Jin Yong's words brought back the memories of many old employees here. They still remember his hard work back then. On the one hand, he often had to stay up all night writing manuscripts, and on the other hand, he was worried about financial problems.

There was even a period of time when Jin Yong had to rely on pawns to maintain the operation of "Ming Pao" and pay wages to employees.

Pan Yuesheng held his eyes on the bridge of his nose and sighed: "Mr. Cha was really miserable at that time. He was tired from work in the afternoon, so he ordered a cup of coffee and drank it with Mrs. Cha."

As soon as the conversation started, the atmosphere in the conference room immediately became relaxed.

Pan Yuesheng's words brought back memories in many people's hearts.

At that time, Jin Yong lived in Tsim Sha Tsui. When he got off work late at night, the Star Ferry had stopped sailing, so he had to take the electric boat commonly known as "Hua La Hua La" to cross the sea.

Whenever they get off work late at night, the Star Ferry has already stopped sailing, so they have no choice but to take an electric boat to cross the sea. However, they have to wait for six people before the boat can sail, because this way the fare is more cost-effective.

If you want to do whatever you want and open it as soon as you arrive, you have to pay a charter fee of three yuan.

In order to save money, Jin Yong and his wife would rather endure the cold wind in the middle of the night than charter a boat to cross the sea.

Jin Yong lightly knocked on the table, thinking about everyone's sorrow and sweetness, and said with some encouragement: "We have gone from a 'small citizen newspaper' focusing on martial arts novels, sensational news and horse classics to now, becoming a newspaper for the masses." It is a newspaper accepted by scholars and intellectuals, and I believe we will continue to do so firmly in the future!”

...

Compared with "Ming Pao", which is facing a formidable enemy, "Sing Tao Daily"'s response is mediocre. It cannot be said that it does not take it seriously, but no one would think that a mere copy of "Oriental Daily News" can endanger the survival of "Sing Tao Daily".

Not to mention Oriental Daily's foundation is still shallow, even Ming Pao, which has been operating for decades, is not looked down upon by Sing Tao Daily.

Sing Tao Daily Group has a rich product matrix, strong profitability and influence. Recently, it has negotiated with Singapore to acquire the "Singapore Morning Post", and later even plans to acquire the "South China Morning Post".

The latter, in particular, is the highest-selling English newspaper in Hong Kong, with far-reaching status and influence.

The sales volume of newspapers is of course an important indicator to measure the strength of newspapers, but it does not mean that it is only based on sales volume.

Just like the famous scene of rice and blue and green machine sales overtaking the fruit machine for a certain period of time, the data has never been lost in various testing activities, but it is estimated that no one will think that the former is stronger than the latter. .

Warwick, the only company that could compete, also encountered heavy pressure and resistance.

The acquisition of the "Singapore Morning Post" is almost a certainty. The only thing that remains in suspense is the "South China Morning Post" deal. It is rumored that Murdoch's News Corporation is also interested in contacting the "South China Morning Post". It seems that Robert Kuok's Kerry Media I also want to get involved...

Of course, although "Sing Tao Daily" did not feel like it was facing a formidable enemy, it also expressed its concern, and several high-level officials met to discuss it.

"The rise of Oriental Daily is based on a low-price strategy, which greatly benefits dealers and mobilizes the enthusiasm of newsstand owners to promote Oriental Daily."

"The two Oriental Daily newspapers hold two powerful novel tools, attracting a large number of novel reading enthusiasts."

"Third, and the most alarming point for us, I don't know where Oriental Daily invited so many high-level financial experts. The content of their financial business section is very surprising. The first is the financial loopholes of Ximing Pharmaceutical, which was recommended some time ago Several stocks have performed very well, and one of them has skyrocketed..."

"Sing Tao Daily" focuses on the high-end market, targeting elite customers. If they don't care that Oriental Daily has swept the novel users, they have to compete with them for the right to speak in the newspaper industry. They have no choice but to ignore it.

The young and powerful Hu Xianer made the final decision, "Find a way to recruit the financial commentator from Oriental Daily!"

Although she has gradually shifted the focus of her career to real estate in recent years, in addition to Hong Kong, she has also made aggressive moves in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and other places. However, the Sing Tao Daily Group is the fundamental company and she will never allow a fire in her backyard to be destroyed. Steal home.

Several senior executives couldn't help but nod their heads when they saw this. Although Hu Xian's acting style is a bit radical, she can still show courage at critical moments. Compared with the few losers in the Hu family who only fight for power and profit, she is really much better. level.

If there are no problems with the real estate layout, the Hu family will become one of the top wealthy families in Hong Kong after this battle.

He Zhou knew nothing about Sing Tao Daily's efforts to poach him, and even if he knew, he would laugh it off.

With nothing to do, he was petting his cat, bathing in the sunshine, and occasionally listening to the cheerful whispers of birds outside the window.

At this time, he really felt the beauty of life. It was good to sit around and work hard and waste time for a while!

Perhaps this is the real peaceful time.
