American Fortune Life
Chapter 279: Pants ready to take off
The new year is new. Since Andy joined the "Observer" newspaper, the employees of the newspaper have no longer faced the risk of layoffs because of fear of loss. Instead, they have added many new faces, new functional departments, and new equipment.
With several major news reports, the sales of newspapers have made a qualitative leap, especially the development of new markets in the surrounding states. This has undoubtedly made everyone see that their newspapers are starting from a well-established district. Slowly developing to the national Xing newspapers, the influence is also incomparable to the original situation.
Andy held the hot aromatic coffee, and put his other hand in his pants pocket, facing the warm winter sun, squinting his eyes, silently overlooking the people on Wall Street, and from the sewer mouth from time to time. Emerging heat.
He just finished reading the newspaper's financial statements during this period of time. He was very satisfied and turned a profit, and still made more than 3 million profit. The advertising space in the newspaper has been sold, and he also sold a good one. Price, after all, the popularity of "Gossip Girl" among young people cannot be underestimated. Many companies targeting this age group have established advertising cooperation with newspapers, as well as three-year long-term contracts for several companies in the country of rabbits. The advertising department almost crooked, one by one admiring the rabbit people are too rich, it is really terrible, especially for a computer that sells new products. Everyone wants a full-page, small advertising space. Don't look at it.
This made the editor-in-chief Pete Kaplan painful and happy. After all, it is a weekly magazine. There are several newspaper sections, but four new sections have been added. Anyway, if you have money, you ca n’t help but make money. Supermarket cooperation has increased the activity of printing discount coupons. Now Pete dares to use any method to increase newspaper sales.
Now the sales volume of the New York Observer can guarantee 200,000 copies of sales each year. Although there is no such thing as the New York Times 300,000 copies a day, it can still guarantee annual profit of 10 million. Dee was successful again, and also hit the faces of many of his peers who had scorned his acquisitions in the beginning.
He is truly worthy of the new halo of publishing!
With a smile on the corner of my mouth, I thought of the Jade who was strengthened by his chances and women. He smashed his mouth and reminisced about the taste of coffee. How awesome that previous Jade was bragged about, Andy didn't know how true he was. What is the level, but in order to make the newspaper profitable, in the previous life, there have been large-scale layoffs, and the layoff of the associate editor came out to publicly criticize and question Judd's ability to do business.
Thinking of this, Andy chuckled a little, he didn't seem to be thinking of him, passers-by. I can't help feeling a lot better, in fact, last night when passing through, sometimes inevitably doubted, after all, basically do things to seize opportunities, to gain luck, if the psychological quality is not strong, it will inevitably cause worry.
"Hmm ..."
"Come in!" Andy said, knocking on the door, while walking towards the desk while holding the coffee cup.
"Boss." Pete Kaplan came in with a smile on his face, holding a document bag.
"Sit down." Andy lifted his chin slightly, took the coffee cup to the table, and sat on the boss chair himself. The whole strong body leaned against the back of the boss chair. With a squeaking noise, his elbows were supported on the armrest of the boss's chair, his hands were crossed on his chest, his face had a faint smile, and he just glanced at the paper bag in Pete's hand and stopped looking.
"Boss, this is all the information ..." Pete sat down and handed the paper bag in his hand to Andy.
Andy shook her head and laughed. "Let's put it on the table. I'm not interested in watching it."
Pete shrugged his shoulders, put the paper bag aside, and asked cautiously, "Are we really going to give up this big news?"
Andy left his corner of the mouth. He knew that Pete was a little reconciled. After all, this may be the biggest scandal of modern American emperor. "This scandal has too much influence, and it is not considered to some people. What a big thing is just trouble, but it hurts some ordinary people. We do n’t need to report such angry news. It may be very beautiful at first, but it will be hated by many people. After walking the horse honeycomb, you can retreat ... "
Pete Kaplan's pupils shrank sharply. He understood the meaning of his boss's words. He also understood that his boss knew much more about himself than himself, and it was by no means comparable to the information he had brought, even if he It is reported that it just serves as a fuse, but instead it will put itself in, Nima, this is someone who wants to pit his own rhythm!
"Oh, okay, do n’t talk about this bad thing, just when nothing happens, we can just watch the big show quietly, don't blend in!" He waved his hand with a smile, as if he wanted to run the obscure fan, But his words turned again, Andy asked with a bitter smile on his face: "But Pete, shouldn't you give me an explanation about the arrangement of Scarlett Johnson's interview ..."
"Oh ... hehe, hehe, boss, I really didn't mean it. This is a good contact after Christmas. To enter the awards season, we have a special topic in our weekly magazine. Miss Johnson is just one of them. No one thought of it. ... Oh, Miss Scarlett will ... "Pete Kaplan almost didn't get choked by coffee, coughing and smirking, but explained that the charm of the boss is so great, after all, Scarlett This kind of Xing sensation is openly showing love on TV. This Nima is definitely yan fu, thinking of the boss's current girlfriend, alas, that figure is even worse, that chest, that butt, no man looks at it. Will not be tempted.
Andy glared at Pete Kaplan with a sneer, rubbed Jin Ming, and sighed helplessly: "Those gossip tabloids will be crazy! By the way, how's the affairs of the" Gossip Girl "TV series going? "
"Partners have basically been determined. CW TV, which was jointly funded by CBS and Warner Bros. in 2006, has merged the public network with the highest bid and sincerity. After all, they are the only one targeting young audiences aged 18-34 TV stations, although they have the lowest ratings among the top five TV stations, but the average number of people who clean up is also about 5 million. "When Pete Kaplan heard Andy asking about the business, he smiled and began to report to Andy.
Andy frowned slightly, and finally was won by cw for cooperation. This past life is also this TV station, and the door is going to die. Some of the custom-made clothing used in the first half of the first season were borrowed, most of them are Old clothing, some clothing numbers are not suitable at all, several starring can only make do with.
Later, after the fire, cw TV revealed a greedy face, desperately planted advertisements in it, and finally played this youthful episode to death.
"Did they have any objection to the terms of my contract?" Since Andy knew how the TV series in the previous life was cut off, he would have added precautionary measures from the beginning.
"They agreed. They are very confident in your adaptation of this novel. The two major shareholders of cw TV are also willing to invest heavily in shooting. The crew of the TV series has drawn a group of very experienced people. The director came Roger Kunbao, but they hope you can adapt the script of the first season, and if time does not permit, you also want to participate in several discussions of the screenwriter group, they hope to add your name. "Pete Kaplan some hope Looking at the boss, after all, the requirements of cw TV are not excessive, much simpler than those of the boss.
"Yes, I will only be responsible for the first five episodes of the first season. I will take part in the interviews of the four main characters. After all, this is my first novel adapted from film and television, and it must not be messed up. If there are no other questions, let Cw TV is about to sign a contract. By the way, the clothes appearing in the TV show must be high-end fashion and must be the latest in the season. If there is no big-name sponsorship, the brand requirements can be slightly reduced. I took a sip, nodded, agreed to the requirements of cw television, and then talked about some precautions.
"So, the boss, and the signing ceremony of cw television ..."
"I attended in person and held a press conference. It can be considered as a publicity in advance. The interview of the actors can also be prepared to start!"
To be honest, Andy really wants to see how the youthful and invincible Blake Lively wins this female No. 1 role, huh, but she has always had a boyfriend with a childhood friend, one blood or something, Andy does n’t Dare to think about it, after all, the beautiful girl's unrestrainedness is more than just talking. I wonder if she will make the sky above her boyfriend turn green for the role? Really looking forward to it!
Another actress, Blair ’s actor Litton Meister, is an actress of cw television. She will definitely come for an interview. Well, she looks good. When she is young and beautiful, it ’s delicious. Early adopters are good.
Of course, for Blake Lively, since he started writing "Gossip Girl", he has been remembered. After all, there were only a few female stars in Xing who felt bubbling in Hollywood in the past, and Blake Lively was a Jing Ming. Girl, otherwise she will not star in "Gossip Girl" after the fire, then kicked her first love boyfriend.
19 years old! Alas, it's really exciting!
The flashing color in Andy's eyes did not attract Pete's attention. Naturally, he would not know that his young boss was thinking of using this opportunity to go to the qian rule actress.
