American Fortune Life
Chapter 95: Exclusive interview (below)
Andrew Solkin looked at the tall, handsome and polite young man in front of him. He was not as young and amiable as he thought, and his handsome face showed a confidence and maturity that did not match his peers.
When Andrew received a call from Old Smith, he was still very surprised. After all, Andy is a man of the moment. The variety show "Medida Show" launched according to his creativity was a complete mess. Americans have always been keen on entertainment. It is the dream of almost every child to become a star.
The talent show has undoubtedly become a shortcut for ordinary people to become famous. As long as they are talented, they will not be buried. It is said that the preparation for the second season has not yet begun, and the number of applicants has reached a horrible number.
A song "Five Hundred Miles Away from Home" sings the voices of people who are struggling for their dreams in a foreign land. Before the single was sold, this song has been sung by countless people. I heard that the single EP will soon be sold Maybe the airborne leaderboard may be airborne.
Three novels in four months all entered the best-selling list. Even if "Da Vinci Code", which had been on the charts for many years, withdrew from the sales list in June, making "Hunger Games" the second place, it is still surprising. Especially "Dream of Dreams", the exquisite story structure and stunning imagination, is Andrew's favorite book in recent years.
The love affair with Ivana, the appearance of men and women, makes entertainment journalists and paparazzi extremely happy.
Especially yesterday's acquisition caused an uproar in the media world. Andrew himself felt that Arthur Carter was dementia, and let a ruthless tender young man take charge of a newspaper that has been in circulation for 20 years. Already.
Many people are full of curiosity about this young writer who suddenly re-entered the public's sight in May, but he has refused to interview. In addition to playing in "Allen Show", there is also a wonderful contribution of "Saturday Night Live" Sing, and then no other media can interview him.
As a Gold Medal reporter for the New York Daily, he has seen more celebrities and politicians. Andy Smith has not been able to make him work hard to get an exclusive interview with the public relations. He would not agree to come in person for an interview.
Andy and Andrew have a sitting area close to the floor-to-ceiling windows, two soft large lazy sofas, a square solid wood table in the middle, and a beautifully decorated wooden box on the table.
Andrew could not help but brighten his eyes and smiled at Andy who said the same smile. "Havana cigar!"
"Yes, this was given to me by the old Arthur when he left. How about you and me talking about Havana's cigars?" Andy motioned for Andrew to take a seat, and he sat on the sofa himself.
"Oh, brilliant idea, such good goods are rare now, and each one is reluctant to ignite at will." Andrew knew the preciousness of the Havana cigar in front of him, and guessed that it would not be in the wooden box. There are many roots.
These are the best cigars. In fact, Andy just took out and blocked Andrew's mouth. He knew Andrew's preferences and knew his love for cigars. Just when Arthur Carter moved out of here, he gave them to Andy. .
The human hand is short, and the human mouth is short. The words of past ancestors are still in my ears.
The bitter Andrew has smoked his best cigar, and he should not deliberately make things difficult for him.
Looking at Andrew with an intoxicated look, Andy relaxed a little, pulled his tie with his hands, and was about to completely relax himself, sinking into the soft sofa.
The opposite Andrew opened his eyes and asked abruptly, "How do you describe yourself?"
Andy froze slightly, seeing the slyness flashing in Andrew's eyes, and answered confidently: "Genius."
"Did you say you were a genius because you were arrogant?"
"I read the books and never forget. I have amazing talents in language learning. I think it should be called a genius. Young people should be more confident."
Andy looked at Andrew with a satisfied expression, and he couldn't help but chuckle his lips. Andy is not prepared to be modest with him. These gold medal reporters will look at you unpleasantly, and will definitely bias the report. Even the content of the interview is not even mentioned, and will directly inject personal feelings to comment.
"What made you decide to buy this newspaper as soon as you woke up?"
"This is not a moment of awakening. I have been paying attention to various business opportunities since I sold the copyright of the talent show. I am also interested in newspapers. I heard that Mr. Carter intends to sell it. Hawaii rushed back to New York, and met Carter non-stop, and finally reached a consensus. Starting from "New York Observer" to get involved in the media industry, I feel great. Its brand charm is incredible. "
Andrew is still quite satisfied with Andy's answer so far, and then asked, "Why do you think you can run this newspaper that has been in circulation for 20 years?"
"Well, I admit that I have no business experience, but I always feel that my life is only through straight curve learning to reach the final straight forward ..."
Andy was interrupted by Andrew before he continued, "For example, did you apply for a suspension of college after a year of college? Then use your free time to fooling around?"
"No, no, I chose to quit school to recognize what I really want to learn. After one year of study, I feel that learning French is too simple for me. After all, I am still confident in my language talents, as for fooling around ... It was just a short period of self-lost. I believe many people have experienced this kind of self-lost ... "Andy looked at Andrew with a slight embarrassment on the opposite side with a smile.
Andrew's own private life was not very good. He was not annoyed by Andy's anti-general. He nodded gently, which was in agreement with Andy's statement.
"You go on, how are you going to run this newspaper?"
"I believe in professional things to be done by professional people. I am glad that I have a great and experienced team. I think we will do something famous."
"But according to the report, the newspaper loses $ 2 million per year. How do you plan to reverse it?"
"I have a lot of different plans, and I have already started a comprehensive evaluation of the newspaper. The situation is very optimistic. At present, my main task is to make it profitable. I believe that people will see some changes in the next six months. Pitkaplan will put the newspaper Do better. "Andy felt Andrew's aura was a bit closed, no longer aggressive, he also relaxed and said confidently.
"Will there be a lot of layoffs to reduce losses?"
"No, we will add bricks and bricks. We must integrate more resources and add additional topics and authors. For example, as a fairly successful writer, I have prepared a wonderful novel and will be in the next weekly issue. By serializing, we have the ability to meet the reading needs of a larger readership and will continue to cater to existing local loyal readers and expand their influence among young people. "
Andy did an opportunity to make an advertisement, which was promoted by the “New York Daily”, which has the largest circulation in the United States and Japan. It will definitely attract more attention.
"How do you think such multimedia is making a fuss about your age?"
The corner of Andy's mouth slightly tilted up, with a hint of irony, "Age is my advantage. I think they are afraid that I have enough enthusiasm, energy and creativity."
"Will you return to school in the future?"
"Of course, I have already contacted my school and I have found that I may invest in all passionate professions in the future, and of course, I will not give up my business."
"Is Observer your business project?"
"No, no, it is not a business. In New York, The Observer is also an excellent quality asset. It is a non-tradable product. It is an outstanding brand with an elite readership and the best editors. That is to say, in the context of either conservative or liberalism, it has always maintained the position of an onlooker. It only talks about the facts. This will be maintained and continued, and it will not change with a new boss! "
