Chapter 1085 The Imperial Group takes over Oriental Daily!
1986 2 Month 16 Day.
The eighth day of the new year.
Oriental Press Group Building.
At this time, the main executives and editors of Oriental Newspaper Group were notified in advance. The new boss, Empire Group chairman Sir Yang, will inspect Oriental Press Group today.
Before Oriental News was sold to the Imperial Group, the main management was the Ma brothers.
Including the children of Ma Xiru and Ma Xizhen, after the Ma family sold the Oriental Newspaper Group to the Imperial Group, the executives of the Oriental Newspaper Group have not changed for the time being.
Including Ma Xiru's son Ma Tingqiang, Ma Xizhen's son Ma Dengfa, Ma Dengcai, Ma Dengkun and others all greeted him outside the door.
As the saying goes, once a gentleman is a courtier.
The Imperial Group suddenly swallowed up the Oriental Newspaper Group. The Ma family must have left the Oriental Newspaper Group. However, others including the editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, and editor-in-chief need to be clear about it.
In addition, the Imperial Group is not generally powerful.
Yang Ming's Rolls-Royce stopped at the Oriental Press Building.
There were many luxury cars following behind.
This time I came to inspect the Oriental Press Group after the acquisition.
In addition to Yang Ming and Mailisi, there are also Tang Shilian, Lin Xiuzhi, Alina, He Chaoluo, Ying La, and his bodyguards.
The door of the Rolls-Royce was opened.
Yang Ming got out of the car.
He had already recognized Ma Tingqiang, who looked very special when walking among the crowd. There were many children of the Ma family beside Ma Tingqiang.
"Sir Young is here."
"Hello Sir Yang."
In addition to seeing Sir Yang, they unexpectedly discovered that they also saw the Empire Group's Cabinet General Manager Merliss, Empire Group's Financial Director and Cabinet Member Tang Shilian, as well as Secretary Lin and two assistants beside Yang Ming.
Ma Tingqiang and others welcomed Yang Ming in.
The editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, editor-in-chief, etc. of the Oriental Newspaper Group came to welcome him.
Although the main executives are members of the Ma family, the editor-in-chief and deputy editor-in-chief are outsiders, and they all come from literary backgrounds.
Ma Tingqiang introduced several other Ma family members to Yang Ming, namely his cousins. Yang Ming just nodded and said nothing.
As the largest-selling newspaper group in Hong Kong, Oriental Daily has more than 1,000 regular employees.
Among them, there are more than a thousand people here at the headquarters of Oriental Newspaper Building, and there are also hundreds of foreign correspondents.
As for those part-time reporters, that doesn’t count.
In other words, Oriental Newspaper Group, under normal circumstances, supports thousands of people, but it can't actually make much money just from newspaper subscription fees and advertising fees.
Under the leadership of Ma Tingqiang, Yang Ming visited various departments of Oriental News Group.
Among them, the most important one is the department that collects information.
This department receives information from all over the world and then integrates and distributes it through various departments.
In addition to daily newspapers, Oriental Daily also has evening newspapers, etc., as well as some magazines.
The most influential one is the Oriental Daily. It contains all-inclusive content, allowing readers to know world affairs without leaving home. In addition to Hong Kong and world news information, it also has industry, economics, entertainment, sports, Bo Jing, horse racing, and supplements. The "Longmen Formation" where famous experts gather, the "Correct Comments" and "Kung Fu Tea" that criticize the current ills, make readers feel unhappy. It is a comprehensive, omniscient, cross-era and cross-regional newspaper.
The biggest impact.
In addition to the Horse Sutra, there is also the Dog Sutra.
and the information hidden inside.
Ordinary people cannot understand the information hidden inside, but those hidden gentlemen who read the Oriental Daily Daily can clearly see the trading place, trading time, and even the trading location.
in history.
The Ma brothers first made their fortune through this method.
Therefore, since MacLehose became the Governor of Hong Kong and the ICAC was established, in addition to the four major Chinese detectives in Hong Kong who were attacked, the Ma brothers have been attacked because of their involvement in these.
Now that Yang Ming has acquired Oriental Daily, it is impossible for him to be like before.
Come to the conference room here.
In addition to Ma Tingqiang, there are also Ma Dengkun, Ma Dengfa, Ma Dengcai and others, that is, the Ma brothers, who know that they have to give up their positions.
After all, the Imperial Group has spent one billion to acquire all the shares of Oriental Daily, and the Ma family no longer has any shares in Oriental Daily.
According to the situation of the Imperial Group and Sir Yang, it is impossible to keep the Ma family here anymore.
Ma Tingqiang stood up proactively and said: "Sir Yang, I officially resign from any position in Oriental Newspaper and Oriental Daily."
Except for Ma Tingqiang, all other Ma family brothers and Ma family relatives also voluntarily resigned.
It was impossible to retain Yang Ming.
Except for the Ma family brothers and Ma family relatives, everyone resigned and a group of people were replaced.
The rest are some important positions, including editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, editor-in-chief, etc. These are outsiders and belong to the category of professional managers.
Yang Ming just didn't know these people here.
However, there was a man named Zhou Shi.
Zhou Shi is a scholar and now a deputy editor-in-chief.
As for Oriental Daily, starting from today, it will officially become Yang Ming's "voice". Those who disobey him, have different ideas and three views, will definitely not stay.
Wait until the Ma family leaves.
Oriental Press Group and Oriental Daily gave up more than ten important positions at once.
These positions will either be promoted by those who are currently staying, or new people will be appointed from the Imperial Group's cabinet and secretariat.
"Everyone, I don't care what the Oriental Press Group really did in the past, but from today on, the Oriental Press Group and Oriental Daily are mainly engaged in media. As for those illegal things in the past, they no longer exist from today on."
do not know why.
After Zhou Shi and others heard this, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They have been joining Oriental Daily for so long, not only because they really like this industry, but also because Oriental Daily’s salary is good.
Although they can switch jobs to other media and newspapers in Xiangjiang, it is difficult to say about their income and benefits.
Nowadays, the Oriental Newspaper Group is acquired by the Imperial Group, which is equivalent to embracing a real big tree.
"As for the issue of new position adjustment, it will be decided by the Imperial Group Cabinet and Secretariat. I am here to remind everyone of the future development direction of Oriental Daily. You can also follow the direction. As long as you don't commit any crimes, the salary and benefits will be better."
When others leave.
Yang Ming left Zhou Shi behind.
It turns out that the Ma family was the president and editor-in-chief of Oriental Daily, and Zhou Shi was just the deputy editor-in-chief.
Historically, it was not until the 1990s that Zhou Shi began to serve as editor-in-chief.
Zhou Shi was surprised. He didn't expect that he would stay and serve as the editor-in-chief.
In other words, he was the beneficiary of the departure of the Ma family. He was directly promoted from deputy editor-in-chief to editor-in-chief. His position, identity and status were no longer the same.
"Zhou Shi, I want to hear how Oriental Daily was operated before?"
Zhou Shi also said it in front of Yang Ming, Mailisi and others.
The other party spoke in great detail.
Hong Kong is mainly a big city for horse racing. Many people like horse racing very much, so horse racing is very popular.
And the Dog Book is not only related to the fact that wealthy people in Hong Kong like to keep pet dogs.
In addition to these, the martial arts novels that have been popular in Hong Kong since the 1960s and 1970s are still very popular today. For example, Jin Yong directly supported "Ming Pao" with his own martial arts novels, allowing Ming Pao to sell thousands of copies every day. to tens of thousands, or even more than 100,000 copies.
It is enough to see that readers in Xiangjiang still like martial arts novels.
