The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 565: Express Edition

Everyone in the conference room was stunned after hearing that Sean was going to start the Speed ​​Edition.

The surprise of the employees is not without reason.

Years of working experience told them that if an evening newspaper wanted to publish the news of the day, there was no other way except to work overtime to print "outside the number".

And the outsiders are only occasionally for breaking news. The experience of working overtime for the outsiders is quite painful.

In their imagination, the "creative idea" proposed by Mr. Sean Dickinson means adding an extra number to the evening newspaper every day.

This is simply inhuman and impossible to achieve.

Although they have accepted the fact that the new boss is a dreamer, at this moment they sincerely believe that Mr. Dickinson's imagination is as rich as a wild horse, but its danger is just like this metaphor.

Therefore, their dissuasion at this moment is very necessary...

Several reporters and editors stood up, trying to illustrate the absurdity of the idea.

Sean just squeezed his hands, and they quieted down.

"If you imagine a new thing according to the old way of thinking, the conclusion is definitely impossible.

"If you talk about diesel locomotives with people in the era of carriages, you will probably be regarded as an evil person.

"But the 'impossible' is changed by creativity.

"If we always limit ourselves to the existing rules, it is difficult to create excellence.

"Gentlemen, please put aside your prejudices for now and listen to my thoughts..."

Before announcing the decision, Sean wasn't worried about the feasibility of the plan.

After all, he and Norton talked several times about this, and in the end, both of them believed that the "speed version" was achievable.

"The key is to open another 'special team' in the editorial department.

"This team is not responsible for any other work, and will only serve one page for the day, that is, the speed version.

"They will be distributed in all key locations in New York City, each with a dedicated line, and after collecting the news, they will directly repeat the manuscript to the editor by oral means...

"The most critical content of this page is the analysis of the price trend of goods and stock market conditions of the day..."

"How many people does the team need?" Vincent raised his hand and asked.

"Four reporters, two editors."

The reporter team leader raised his eyebrows: "Then there are only two reporters left in charge of other news."

"Don't worry." Sean looked at John, "Now a young reporter has been added to the editorial department. In addition...

"I have an independent reporter's office, and there are three contracted reporters there who can provide other news. The number is enough." The three extra reporters were actually Sean, but he could only say that.

In this way, Speed ​​Squad 4 reporter 2 editor, ordinary news is 6 + 2, before Sean recruits new reporters and editors, the normal operation is no problem.

After hearing about Sean's plan, the atmosphere in the conference room relaxed a little.

All in all, the president's way of coping with the surge in workload is to increase the number of personnel and set up special teams...

As long as it doesn't drain the people who are in the job, everything is fine.

"It's the typesetting editor who has increased the workload," Sean looked at the two of them. "The normal typesetting of the Evening News will continue as usual, but before printing at four o'clock in the afternoon, an additional page of the day's content will be added—

"Of course, considering the actual situation, the Express Edition will adopt a fixed template, which is basically the same every day.

"In this case, the increase in workload is also within a reasonable range."

There is one more fixed-format layout, which is not an exaggerated increase in workload...

The two typeset editors who were stared at by Sean breathed a sigh of relief.

After listening to the narration, the employees unanimously found that the speed version does not seem as scary as they imagined.

The initial panic seemed to come from the habitual thinking of compiling evening newspapers—

One extra account is a big head, and there is a speed version every day, I can't imagine it!

In fact, as long as the structure and working methods are slightly adjusted, the Evening News can also publish the news of the day...

This is a slightly simple innovation after breaking the fixed thinking.

After learning that the speed version is feasible, an excitement suddenly sprouted in the conference room.

The change in news style has made the editorial department have some expectations for the market response of the new newspaper.

Coupled with the innovation of the speed version...

Thinking that the new version of "Evening News" has really changed from the ground up, the members of the newspaper who are looking forward to the increase in sales and word-of-mouth can't help but get excited.

In the excitement, Sean and Richard looked at each other, and they were both relieved and happy about this atmosphere.

·

The composition of the speed team was quickly determined.

Sean and Richard had some arguments before about the composition of this squad.

The team leader recommended by Richard Norton is "Mr. Kangaroo" Vincent, and Sean has doubts about whether Vincent can fulfill this position.

"He was with Ryan before," Sean said, "it changed his face at the end.

"It's not that I can't use him, but I'm worried about assigning such an important position to him."

"He can handle it, please believe me, Mr. Dickinson." Norton coughed for a while, his face and neck flushed, and then he continued, "In the editorial department, now only he can command the three reporters.

"Also, he knows you don't have a good impression of him. I can feel that he wants to perform well."

Sean pondered for a while, looked at Norton's calm eyes, and nodded slightly: "But you have to keep an eye on him.

"If there is any situation, change the person."

"certainly."

There is still one day left until the hair day of the new newspaper~lightnovelpub.net~ The entire editorial department is in a strange atmosphere: tense and orderly, and a certain excitement is suppressed in the quiet.

This is a good phenomenon. Sean, who was standing alone in the office, thought: The Evening News employees, who were hit hard by sales, actually had a lot of energy in their hearts.

They want to make a big splash.

In the past few days, Sean found that even the yawning "mascot" of the advertising department, Mr. Dipres, was more energetic.

He said good things about the new president and the new editor-in-chief whenever he met, and praised their decision sincerely.

He said he was looking forward to the launch of the New Evening News, and was already waiting for a call from the advertising agency.

He said the Evening News was saved.

For this, a hint of relief appeared on Sean's face.

He suddenly realized what this real-life "exploration mission" meant...

It means that someone has been hoping to reverse the increasingly decadent situation.

It means the heroic dream of ordinary people in daily life.

It means giving people hope.

However, this insight also made him feel a pressure that he had never experienced before.

He took a deep breath and felt the sharp smell that he could smell when the adrenaline was released.

——This also means that the reform of the Evening News cannot fail.

The first issue of the new newspaper must not go wrong!

Soon, the time came to the day when the new newspaper was issued...
