In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.
He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...
Liu Shengxing could be said to be the person who made the most money besides Donglai; earning twenty dollars a month was not too difficult for him.
"Xiao Lin, we plan to continue expanding in the second half of the year and strive to make Min Sheng Bao a provincial newspaper by the first half of next year."
Liu Shengxing confidently and slowly told Lin Yifeng about his future plans.
Lin Yifeng nodded in satisfaction.
He had long anticipated that fame and fortune would be so profitable.
From establishing a foothold in Shanyang City to rapidly expanding into Muye City, in Liu Shengxing's words, their newspaper basically occupied about 30% to 40% of the market.
Currently, the total population of the four cities combined is close to 25 million. Liu Shengxing makes a profit of about one yuan per newspaper per month just from the number of newspapers he distributes and after deducting costs.
In 1994, the total population of Zhongzhou Province was around 90 million. If Liu Shengxing could develop the provincial newspaper, earning tens of millions a month would be a piece of cake.
"Editor Liu."
"We will focus on steady development in the second half of the year, first securing the market share, and then taking things one step at a time."
"This matter cannot be rushed."
"Once things stabilize in the second half of the year, we'll start preparing for the Minsheng Daily building project."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shengxing's eyes widened in surprise.
"Xiao Lin, do you mean we should build a big courtyard too?"
Lin Yifeng smiled and nodded.
If possible, he also wants to transform the Min Sheng Bao from a newspaper into a radio station, and start offering some radio services.
These days, radio stations are developing at a pace no less than newspapers. If they don't get involved now, they'll definitely have to spend a lot of money if they miss this opportunity.
Everyone inside the room showed expressions of shock.
Originally, Liu Shengxing was among the group that benefited the least, but no one could stop him from being too serious about his work.
While Lin Yifeng was ignoring him, this guy worked hard and doubled the size of the newspaper within six months.
Regarding this matter, Lin Yifeng also planned to let Liu Shengxing calm down first and focus on the radio station and headquarters building issues.
While land prices are currently low, let Minsheng Daily stabilize the market and give Liu Shengxing a chance to calm down.
The rapid pace of expansion may not necessarily be a good thing for him.
After dealing with Liu Shengxing's matter, Lin Yifeng's gaze fell on Gangzi and Lin Cuilan.
It could be said that among the people who took over Lin Yifeng's business, the two of them were veterans, but they had the least experience.
First, Gangzi reported on his work over the past six months.
"Brother Feng, I'm fine here."
"Currently, there is a strong demand from the player community for an annual competition, and competitions are being held in various regions one after another."
"Brother Feng, shall we continue the competition?"
Gangzi's eyes showed a hint of worry.
He helped out in the first two Dragon Cups, knowing that the competition was very expensive, but he didn't care.
It wasn't until he took charge of the third Dragon Cup that Gangzi finally realized just how troublesome a competition could be.
From preparation to the end of the competition, he didn't get a proper rest for two whole months.
In addition, dealing with various sponsors made Gangzi realize that things were far more complicated than he had thought.
Lin Yifeng stroked his chin.
"The competition is being held in other places too, right?"
"Okay, Gangzi, contact some of our past contestants, select the ones who are good at fighting games, and talk to them about cooperation."
Gangzi blinked.
"Brother Feng, do you mean we're going to start training players?"
Lin Yifeng nodded.
He had mentioned this to Gangzi once, which was about wanting to build an e-sports club.
These days, playing video games is synonymous with being idle and not doing anything productive. In addition, Lin Yifeng started the trend of competitions, and now various types of competitions are gradually appearing all over the country.
Lin Yifeng's idea about this matter is very simple: he plans to train a group of players who specialize in fighting games. The number doesn't need to be too large, just three or five will be enough.
Let them travel to various parts of the country to participate in competitions, and while they're at it, let them wear the sponsored uniforms they've prepared.
In terms of salary, these days, as long as you can offer them a monthly salary of 3,000 plus bonuses and commissions, it's basically considered a high-paying job.
At that time, PC games had not yet appeared, so maintaining a club didn't cost much money.
Most importantly, their outings and battles to attract fans can pave the way for Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace to expand nationwide.
Moreover, with this group of people taking the lead in expanding the territory, they will be able to prepare a mature system in advance when games like Warcraft, StarCraft, and CS 1.6 appear in the future.
"Okay, I'll contact them right away."
"I'll look for more matches here and then take them to play in those matches."
"We'll discuss the salary later, Brother Feng."
Gangzi took out his notebook and hurriedly wrote down everything that needed to be done.
When Lin Yifeng's gaze fell on Lin Cuilan.
Lin Cuilan visibly trembled.
This, however, made Lin Yifeng frown.
As a veteran who has been by his side, Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace's success today is inseparable from Lin Cuilan's help.
Now that she's in charge of a factory, Lin Cuilan should be more confident, but she doesn't look like a factory manager at all. In fact, she's not as good as she was back when she was at Wallace.
Lin Yifeng turned his head and glanced at Guo Fengsheng beside him.
Could it be that Guo Fengsheng got Lin Cuilan the job?
They were afraid that their secret would be exposed.
As Lin Yifeng's old roommate, how could Guo Fengsheng not have seen through Lin Yifeng's thoughts?
