My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 515 Overseas Adventure Story
During breakfast, Zhu Zhanhe also developed the habit of reading newspapers, not only his own news paper, but also Confucian newspapers.

There is no way. In this era, there are too few channels to obtain information. Unlike in later generations, you can find everything you want when you turn on your mobile phone. Many people have developed such a habit that they cannot eat or go to the toilet without their mobile phones.

"Hey, this story is well written!"

Zhu Zhanhe suddenly said in surprise.

"what story?"

Chang Sining next to him immediately asked with interest.

Some time ago, Chang Sining finally gave birth to a son for Zhu Zhanhe, which completely broke Sun Ruowei's fantasy. Fortunately, she was pregnant some time ago, and now she is also carefully raising her baby. She usually doesn't leave her house for meals. .

"A story about an adventure at sea. Although the person who wrote the story is a novice, it is more true than ever. It is estimated that he really went to sea."

Zhu Zhanhe handed the newspaper to Chang Sining, pointed to the bottom of the newspaper and introduced it.

Chang Sining took the newspaper and read it with interest.

This story is not new to Zhu Zhanhe. It is nothing more than a story about a young man who was forced to go to sea to make a living and then experienced a series of adventures at sea.

However, this story is quite novel to people of the Ming Dynasty, especially after the Ming Dynasty opened the sea. Although many people knew that there was huge wealth overseas, it was also accompanied by huge risks, but they could not imagine it. In life after going overseas, I don’t know what the so-called risk and wealth specifically mean?
But this story in the newspaper just answered the doubts in many people's minds. With the help of this story, it also showed a picture of overseas life to many people who have never been to the sea. That's why Zhu Zhanhe praised it as an overseas life. Good story.

"The writing is indeed good, but it is too short and not enough to read."

Chang Sining also read it quickly, then handed the newspaper to Zhu Zhanhe with a smile.

She helps Princess Han in charge of the Pearl Hairpin Club and is responsible for the affairs of major dignitaries going overseas. She should know a lot about overseas affairs.But she has never actually been to the sea. This story allows her to see the overseas world from another perspective.

"This is easy to handle. Later I will ask Ma An to commission this person to write a story and come up with a serial story, which will definitely attract more people to subscribe to the newspaper!"

Zhu Zhanhe laughed.

From the moment he saw this story, he felt that it was necessary for this person to write it down. After all, the sea is open now, but only a few people are actually going to sea. More people need to know about the overseas world, and serialization in newspapers Stories about overseas adventures are definitely a good idea.

So after breakfast, Zhu Zhanhe immediately came to the newspaper office, called Ma An and Liang Xin and asked: "Have you seen the person who wrote the overseas adventure story in the newspaper today?"

"No, we received that story the day before yesterday. We discussed it yesterday and felt that the story was very attractive, so we published it in the newspaper!"

Liang Xin immediately stepped forward and replied that he had always been responsible for the content of the newspaper.

"Then you find time to make an appointment with each other. If he is willing to continue writing, the newspaper can open a column for him and let him write the story into a serial. The remuneration can also be increased appropriately!"

Zhu Zhanhe ordered directly.

"The other party is just a newcomer. Isn't it a little early to open a column for him?" Liang Xin was very surprised and asked Zhu Zhanhe after hearing this.

You must know that the reputation of the newspaper has been established now, so it receives a lot of submissions every day, so now they have very high requirements for manuscripts. A newcomer usually needs an inspection period before he will be formally interviewed by the newspaper. As for opening a column, the requirements are even higher.

"With the opening of the sea, overseas attractions are getting stronger and stronger, especially in Tianzhu, which also needs to attract people to settle. Therefore, overseas stories must be vigorously promoted to increase people's interest and understanding of overseas."

Zhu Zhanhe paused at this point, then continued.

"As for opening a column, you should contact the other party first. If the other party is willing, of course it would be best. If not, then recruit some people who are willing to write overseas stories. I believe there will be someone who is willing!"

"I understand, Prince, don't worry, I will handle this matter myself!"

Ma An reacted immediately after hearing this, and immediately patted his chest and promised.

Now all the industries of the entire Han Palace are actually serving Tianzhu, and even some workshops under the name of the Han Palace have begun to move to Tianzhu, and newspapers now need to do more publicity for overseas immigrants.

"My subordinates also understand that I will ask the newspaper to leave a column for overseas as soon as possible!"

Liang Xin also assured at this time.

In the afternoon of the same day, Liang Xin sent a letter to the author of the overseas adventure story. In addition to the remuneration, there was also an invitation to invite the other party to the newspaper office for discussion.

The author of the overseas adventure story was none other than Luo Jian, who lost everything due to gambling. He jumped up with excitement after receiving the newspaper's remuneration and invitation.

Originally, when he was desperate, he submitted an article to the newspaper with the mentality of giving it a try, but he did not expect that it was actually published, and the newspaper even invited him to the newspaper, which made him suddenly see the hope of life.

So early the next morning, Luo Jian used his royalties to buy a new dress, and then came to the news newspaper. Ma An and Liang Xin met him in person and told him that the newspaper wanted to open a column for him.

Luo Jian was short of money, so of course he was overjoyed when such a big pie was thrown at him, so he immediately agreed.

In the following period, Luo Jian also concentrated on writing stories about overseas adventures. He had rich experiences and extensive knowledge overseas, so the material for the stories was almost readily available to him.

The News also opened a column for Luo Jian at the bottom of the newspaper, specifically publishing his overseas adventure stories.

Since the opening of the sea, sea trade has developed vigorously, and many people have made a fortune through sea trade. Even inland people have not been to the sea, but they have also heard some rumors from overseas, but most of these rumors have been processed and cannot be used. Representing the real overseas.

Now many people can see the real overseas scenery through Luo Jian's story, as well as the risks that need to be faced when going overseas, and of course, the attractive wealth behind the risks.

Therefore, Luo Jian's overseas adventure stories were quickly welcomed by readers after they were serialized. Countless letters were sent to newspapers every day, and many storytellers directly used Luo Jian's stories as storytelling to tell those stories. People who like to hear stories listen, which further promotes the spread of overseas adventure stories.

It is estimated that even Luo Jian himself did not expect that he would become a well-known writer in the Ming Dynasty from a down-and-out gambler in just a few months.
