Twenty million is not a small number. Even for Xingsheng Magazine, one of the top media outlets in China, a department invests tens of millions of funds, which requires careful consideration.

The equipment department has a precedent.

Invested more than 30 million in one-time purchase of photographic equipment and recording equipment. That batch of big brother cameras was bought last year. At the same time, various branches have also added many large and small professional photographic equipment, with more than 30 million views. It’s too much, and a few splashes are gone as soon as you cast it. The equipment is expensive.

This is just what happened last year, and it is a sign of the further growth of the Star Group.

But the special issue department is not the equipment department. The equipment is actually there. This is an indispensable tool. The special issue department has a layout, reporters, and a laptop to start work.

20 million? Where to spend? How to spend it?

Mr. Lu glanced at Gao Leng and saw that his face was stern, not like a joke, but his temperament has always been steady, and he must not have just been promoted and he was domineering to support him, so he said: "20 million? This is not a small number. It has to be decided by the board of directors. However, why does the special issue department use 20 million? The space for the special issue department has already been given to you. As for the staff, fifteen are enough? If it is not enough, thirty!"

After taking a sip of cigar, Mr. Lu asked, "Thirty of your subordinates are definitely enough. If you still lack some other talents, you can add some fresh graduates. If you want as much as you want, go to the Ministry of Manpower to adjust. Anyway, this kind of fresh graduate is cheap."

Not to mention the thirty regular army reporters, it is fifteen. This is also a big hit in the interview department. Fresh graduates do need it. It's really cheap. Although the technology is not good, you have to bring it again by yourself, which is precious. The plasticity is high, and you can also pick one or two seedlings and bring them by yourself.

"Of course it's enough. Ten regular troops are enough, and a few fresh graduates." Gao Leng nodded, and several of Jian Xiaodan and the others showed smiles. So many people mean that they are fat and Jian Xiaodan. , Have to lead the team.

Promoted by one person, all prosperous.

"In terms of equipment, I will equip you with five cars. You can choose all kinds of camera equipment. Report to Li Yifan and approve as much as you want. This is the only person, but in all the pure reporter departments of Xingsheng Magazine, the most equipped Okay, and these don’t need extra investment. Gao Leng, you can tell me, if I give you 20 million for your department, where would you spend it?" After Mr. Lu finished speaking, he looked at Gao with a smile. cold.

A special issue department, with the layout, personnel, and equipment. Twenty million, where to spend? Mr. Lu has been in this industry for more than 30 years. He really didn’t see Gao Leng’s game. He played a few meanings. He couldn’t help but got excited. He wiped out all the cigars. He looked at him and waited. As he replied.

Not to mention Lu Yajun, Li Yifan was also confused, not to mention Jian Xiaodan and fat man. Only Lao Hang seemed to understand something, with a strange look on his face, revealing a bit of incredible joy.

Lao Diao faintly understood that Gao Leng's twenty million had something to do with him.

"Used for layout." Gao Leng said, "In first-tier cities, where we need eyeliner, we hire a group of people to help us inquire at any time, and we have our own network of informants."

"Informant network?" Li Yifan became more puzzled: "In important cities across the country, Xingsheng Magazine has branches, and there is no need to set up such an additional department. Moreover, the most important report of Xingsheng Magazine is still Entertainment reports. In the entire entertainment report type, the mode of follow-up is adopted. The informant is useless at all. Which celebrity will reveal the whereabouts to ordinary people? Besides, our reporter got some clues, which are also shared by the circle of friends. The general public as informants? This is a waste of money."

Li Yifan's words are not wrong.

The whole entertainment industry broke the news, except for the celebrities who came to the door to actively break the news and hype, other sneak shots were taken in the form of follow-up. Often after more than ten days or even months, some clues were discovered, and the reporter heard the gossip. The channel is often through Moments of Friends, or Weibo passers-by who broke the news. I haven’t heard of the establishment of an informant network.

"Follow shoots are definitely big heads, no follow shoots, no headlines, but if the informant network is really established, the number of our headlines will increase greatly."

Gao Leng’s tone is slow, but sensible and self-confident: “The informant branch is in the villa districts, communities where celebrities gather, hotels that receive celebrities all the year round, and even the crew. No matter how big a celebrity is, there will be such low-level people around. It appears that the villa area and the community have security, the hotel has waiters, and the film crew has a lunch set. Their eyes are comparable to our interests."

High cold is true.

No matter how big the wrist is, it is inseparable from food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

The hotel enters the same room, and the staff watching the monitoring can stare; the crew is flirting, and if there is a boxed lunch, you can find the tricky, not to mention the high-end community, if the article’s community cable person, it would have been spotted. , Staying here every day, always let people discover something.

As long as the informant is in doubt, the reporter can selectively follow up. This will greatly improve the quality of the follow-up. It is better than a time battle, and it has been targeted from the south to the north.

This is very similar to BBS. The number of news informants that BBS distributes all over China is thousands of people, if not to mention, how could others report our scandal so quickly? Big and small, you don’t know, BBS broadcasts almost instantly.

"The material for star shooting is only part of the informant. I am positioning as the'first informant'. In addition to the entertainment industry, there are also materials from the financial circle. This requires some informants in major companies." Gao Leng continued.

Li Yifan's eyes lit up a lot, and he glanced approvingly at Gao Leng.

Indeed, this is a big game, and it is a very professional game with unlimited prospects.

If the informant network matures, the light star’s revelations may actually be able to reach ten a month, and unannounced visits require informants. This is well known. The unannounced visit has always been a shortcoming of Xingsheng Magazine. Now, Gao Leng has great ambitions. He is not only to be the first person in the entertainment industry to break the news, but also to explode the enterprise. He wants to initiate unannounced visits to this leader.

But Lu Yajun just smiled slightly, frowned, tapped his hand on the table repeatedly, as if thinking about what Gao Leng said, but he didn't seem to agree with him.

This is, the door was pushed open, and a burst of laughter came over purely and loudly: "Uncle Lu, come here and don't bring me any gifts? Last time I said that I would give me a good crossbow, don't blame it!"

"Okay, let's end the meeting, Gao Leng, I don't agree with your plan, and I reject it." Lv Yajun said lightly, stood up and greeted him: "Huang Cong, oh no, it's Mr. Huang now, let me see, oops , A lot taller!"

"Don't tell me, I didn't grow up, I patronize soaking sisters and Tie Qiubao!" Huang Cong laughed, his eyes fell on Gao Leng: "Uncle Lu, I think you should have finished the meeting, let me borrow from you. Personally, my Shui'er girl has to see Gao Leng." As he said, he walked up to Gao Leng and couldn't help but push him to the door: "A star of Shui'er, I am waiting for your luck."

As he said, Huang Cong turned his head and said to Lu Yajun: "Uncle Lu, I will go to the mountains, rivers and blue clouds in a while. You have a lot of old guys playing there. We young people play ours, you play yours!"

There was disappointment in Gao Leng's heart, and President Lu voted down his idea.
