Chapter 24 24. Prelude to the War (3rd update)

"Bang! They really put a big hat on me!" In the editorial office of Yanshan Wenbao, Liu Yuan threw a newspaper on the ground, growled angrily, and then stomped on it a few times as if he was not satisfied.

Originally, he came to work with a very happy mood today. Thinking that he would see the subscription volume increase again, he felt so happy, but this happy mood only lasted for ten minutes, because this newspaper disappeared in an instant.

It's really infuriating.

Liu Yuan has seen a lot of storms, but he didn't expect that these newspapers and magazines would do anything to compete, just like the "Kyoto Entertainment News" he just threw. If I remember correctly, they were discussing to poach me a week ago, and they also specifically asked to bring "Ghost Blowing Light".

What's going on? It's only been a few days, and he has become like this.

Looking at the title composed of a few bold black characters on the newspaper, Liu Yuan couldn't help but get angry from the top of his head. What is superstition and ignorance, and tomb robbing is illegal? What is this newspaper that is fooling the public? Where is their conscience! ?

It is just a novel, how can it be connected to these things! ! !

And if it was just the "Kyoto Entertainment News", it would be fine, but there are several other newspapers that are cheering, including the very influential "Xiangshan Wenhua News". You should know that the circulation of this newspaper is as high as 80,000 or 90,000. You can imagine how many readers will be misunderstood by their article.

Liu Yuan was so anxious that his head was blazing with anger, but he had no better solution for the time being. In particular, he was more worried that the other party's momentum would cause the intervention of the cultural department above, or even issue a ban. At that time, the "Yanshan Wenbao" that was taking off would definitely suffer a major blow.

The lack of mobility of paper media was exposed at this moment.

If it were a few years later when ** and WeChat were popular, the war of public opinion would not be so passive. Information was instant, and the public opinion was clear at a glance. It was not like now. Even if they wanted to fight back, they could not do it. They could only wait until the next day. Moreover, they did not know the public's attitude towards these newspaper articles. Everything seemed quite passive.

Of course, Liu Yuan was not a person who would sit and wait for death. Although he was not necessarily ruthless to get the position of editor-in-chief, he was at least not a "saint". Since others had come to him, he naturally had to be prepared for the battle in all aspects.

You must know that "Yanshan Wenbao" is not a soft persimmon. The Yanshan Wenhua Group behind it is a public-private partnership. It has both the official background of the public and the rich capital and competitiveness of private enterprises. As long as there is the support of this "giant beast", Liu Yuan is not afraid of the "joint army" on the opposite side.

Soon Liu Yuan wrote a report and sent it up. The reply was also quite fast, and there was only one meaning, that is, to fight back fiercely.

After receiving the instructions, Liu Yuan immediately began to instruct his editors to prepare articles for counterattack.

"Editor-in-Chief Liu, are we going to officially start a war?" some editors asked.

"We must start a war. The other party has come to slap us in the face. Are we still going to endure it?" Liu Yuan read out the headquarters' order and responded fiercely to all the editors present.

"That's right, these petty people can't stand the good of our newspaper, and they only use these despicable means."

"It's okay, the villain's style, evil can't defeat good, watch my evil pen for a while, and the little ghost will disappear in an instant."

"Hahaha! Old Zhu, you said it well, then I am the keyboard of the bandit-killing."

Several old editors joked, which also made the atmosphere in the office much more relaxed. Liu Yuan looked at them gratefully, and it was clear that these old people said so deliberately to boost morale.

After all, the competition between newspapers depends entirely on a pen. If you yourself are weak in morale, how can you write sharp articles that pierce the heart of the other party?

After explaining to all the editors, Liu Yuan immediately returned to his office and called Nie Wei to report the situation.

Nie Wei had actually received the news a long time ago.

Since the novel was serialized in Yanshan Wenbao, he has subscribed to more than ten newspapers. It's not that he has too much money, but he knows very well the dark nature of competition in this industry. Public opinion will never be one-sided. This is Nie Wei's most profound impression of this industry in his previous life. Therefore, as a direct contact person, Nie Wei must always pay attention to public opinion and understand the situation at the first time.

So before Liu Yuan called, he had read six or seven newspapers criticizing "Ghost Blowing Light", which basically pointed out the illegality of tomb robbing and the fact that the ghosts, monsters and snakes involved in the novel belong to feudal dregs.

"What a lack of creativity in criticism." Throwing down another newspaper, Nie Wei looked at the garbage on the ground with a smile.

You said that tomb robbing is illegal, but in fact, there is basically no real tomb involved in "Ghost Blowing Light". It is basically fabricated, and the tomb robbing in the novel is actually more of an adventure. The benefits sought are not much, not the kind of insidious behavior that risks life for money.

You said that legends about ghosts, monsters, snakes and gods are feudal dregs, but these things have been passed down for hundreds and thousands of years. In the eyes of some people, they are dregs, but in the eyes of others, they are a kind of precious culture.

So when Liu Yuan called, Nie Wei directly replied: "If your heart is like Buddha, you will see Buddha in others. If your heart is like shit, you will see shit in others."

Suddenly, Liu Yuan almost choked when he heard Nie Wei say such words, but after he calmed down, he also laughed. This kid's words are so interesting. He is indeed a great writer, and his insults are too harsh.

"Brother, you can see clearly. These people are just jealous. Just a few days ago, the "Kyoto Entertainment News" recruited me because of "Ghost Blowing Light". At that time, the tone was so sincere. I don't believe that they have been reborn and become saints in just a few days." Liu Yuan also complained about Nie Wei's words.

"Don't worry, grasshoppers jump happily in autumn, but they die quickly. Maybe this time we will get a blessing in disguise." Nie Wei said meaningfully, which made Liu Yuan confused.

Then Liu Chuang called as expected, and the meaning was similar. On the one hand, he comforted Nie Wei, and on the other hand, he expressed his concern. Nie Wei replied again with the same attitude. In short, just wait and see.

After all, the other party had blatantly plotted against him, so Nie Wei must get back at him.
