The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 560: siege

On the first day the new official took office, the Evening News caused quite a stir in New York City.

There was a lot of buzz in the news industry, saying that the new president Sean Dickinson swept the old editor Steve Ryan out of the office as soon as he arrived at the newspaper.

The move was almost unanimously criticized by senior industry players.

Several editorial writers have written thousands of articles dissecting this incident, and finally came to the conclusion that some young people are "moral decline".

Although they had never met Mr. Dickinson, they all agreed that this young man from Leon did not know how to respect his elders, and was an ignorant and fearless tyrant who was almost only short of putting the "Shame of the Press" crown on Sean. on the head...

However, just as the cold current and the warm current are intertwined and incompatible, there are completely different voices in the newspaper industry.

Young reporters and editors had already heard of Ryan's arrogance and old-fashioned editor, and the story in their eyes was completely different:

The enterprising Mr. Dickinson brought a new wind of reform to the stale "Evening News".

He was very daring to firm up his position and never gave in to the coercion of the old editor. In the end, he represented the new force of the newspaper, hit the nail on the head, and swept the self-proclaimed editor-in-chief out of the house.

One side is "disrespecting elders", and the other side is "warriors slaying dragons", diametrically opposite stories are circulating in the industry.

However, this is only part of the evening news turmoil.

What also caused an uproar was Sean's handwritten letter in the evening newspaper that announced the suspension.

Many people in the industry have already noticed Sean Dickinson's writing and are convinced that the young foreign reporter has extraordinary writing skills.

This letter, which occupied half of the front page of the New Testament Evening News that day, once again confirmed this point.

With sincere and sincere words, Sean wrote down his thoughts and future plans for all readers of the Evening News and all walks of life in the New Testament society.

First of all, he expressed his affirmation and gratitude to the two generations of Mr. Bennett for founding this newspaper, and stressed that he would definitely inherit the unique temperament and fine tradition of The Evening News.

Secondly, he also saw the problems that exist in this newspaper, which has been in business for more than half a century.

He will try his best to change the existing malpractice and present a new look and atmosphere.

In order to highlight this "new", he decided to change the name of the newspaper, and the new name will be announced after a seven-day hiatus.

In order to be closer to the consumption habits of all citizens, the price of the new "Evening News" will be reduced to two cents, and those long-term readers who have subscribed will directly extend the subscription period according to the price.

In addition, Sean predicted that the departure of Steve Ryan might have a certain impact, so he directly explained the incident in the letter, indicating that the departure of the editor-in-chief of Ryan was because the two "difference in the concept of running a newspaper" , and the departure took place in a peaceful and friendly atmosphere...

At the end of the letter, Sean directly proposed that his newspaper recruited a new editor-in-chief for the whole society.

A newspaper's "self-innovation" appeared on paper. People in this era are always curious about new things and support the power of progress. Therefore, readers have certain expectations for the revision of "Evening News".

And those nitpicking colleagues seemed to have found a breakthrough point, and began to criticize Sean from another angle.

The writers of the "Not Penny" camp slammed the self-deprecating Sean as a "spineless traitor".

The writers of the "Penny" camp believe that Sean's shock therapy is naive and risky, and the new paper that will come out must be nondescript.

Others analyzed that Sean's behavior of recruiting the editor-in-chief in his handwritten letter showed that he was at the end of the road...

And all of this, Sean saw it all.

It's been a day since he took office as president. On the first day of the employees' holiday, Sean was drinking coffee and reading newspapers in his independent reporter's office in the West Street Building...

After reading the reviews that criticized him, the corner of his mouth turned into a smile.

Olivia Feng Chi was obviously a little unhappy after reading a lot of harsh words against Sean, but the short-haired girl looked up and saw the scolded deity smiling, so she asked, "Why are you laughing?"

"I didn't expect it to hit right." Sean seemed to be reminiscing about a joke that only he could understand.

Moonlight, who came to his office to kill time, removed the newspaper from his face. Hearing Sean's remarks, he stood up with interest: "What's wrong?"

"First..." Sean pointed to the "New Testament Evening News" with his own letter on the table, "The daily sales of the Evening News was 2,500 copies, which is not as good as the advertising flyers on the street.

"I didn't expect such a commotion. It was reprinted twice today, and it has sold more than 7,000 copies..."

Everyone knows that Sean fired the old editor-in-chief, and the process was quite dramatic; they also knew that the old newspaper "New Testament Evening News" was going to be renamed, but no one knew what the new name was; they also knew that Sean, who is now being scolded by all the newspapers. Dickinson wrote a letter that appeared in the last "New Testament Evening News"...

As a result, curious people bought the newspapers of the current period, which seemed to have some commemorative significance.

However, Sean knew that this did not reflect the long-term sales of the newspaper. At best, it was just a curiosity that pushed the numbers up, and the number of loyal subscriptions was still only over 2,000.

but……

"However, this does have a propaganda effect." Sean stood up, stretched his limbs, and expanded his chest. "First, there are more people who know about the evening news's name change, which will definitely help the first after the revision. Issue - Everyone wants to know if Sean Dickinson of this 'Hu Lai' will work, which is very beneficial for the sales of the first issue of the revision.

"Secondly, because curiosity has pushed up daily sales, the news of recruiting the editor-in-chief has spread more widely, and maybe there will be an echo soon..."

Sean suddenly felt that he had learned something. With that sense of chance, he walked to the shutters and looked at the sunny city. He seemed to smell the dust on the street, and his mind became clearer:

"People, like stories, like drama...

"I heard that there was a conflict in the editorial department of the Evening News, the new young boss fired the old hero, and people wanted to know what happened, so the dulled nerves suddenly became alert, and people gathered around, wanting to know What happened next...

"People need something new."

Considering that dismissing Steve Ryan would definitely have a bad impact, Sean didn't plan to drive out the old editor at first.

He did it after confirming that Ryan would not be removed and the newspaper could not be reformed.

But ~lightnovelpub.net~ he did not expect that the negative news would bring him more attention.

Although according to the Yangyang newspaper, Sean's image is already a wicked villain, a non-existent layman...

But he knew that the public, who had been trained in the "moral warfare" between the newspapers, would not believe the conclusions of any newspaper.

They will wait to see the next scene, to see how the evening paper is after the revision, to see if the brave young man has the ability...

Unintentionally, Sean gained more attention.

"Is this a good thing at all?" Moonlight 1902 also walked to the window, and the two old friends looked at each other.

Sean understood what Moonlight meant.

More attention means that the public's magnifying glass and even the microscope are aimed at the revised "Evening Post".

The new president has no choice but to launch a perfect new edition of "Evening News", so that it is possible to turn these concerns into favor.

Otherwise, it will be a more violent attack, and the final word of public evaluation.

In the end, it was the second generation of the rich who did mischief and led to the complete decline of a traditional newspaper...

Or the young talents who brought the New Testament Evening News back from the ashes?

The public is looking forward to the next episode.

Sean's heart pounded, it felt so familiar.

When he saw the moonlight beside him, he remembered, this feeling...

Just like before every quest.
