Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 852 Entrepreneur

Li Jiankun really thought about what to name this "Fortune Magazine".

Due to the age, it is not easy to put the argument of "chasing wealth" on the table now.

Let some people get rich first - this significant statement has not yet come out, and it seems that it will not be until the end of the year.

Therefore, although the content of the magazine is wealth information, the name of the magazine cannot be advertised as "chasing wealth", it must be more subtle, or even find another way.

Entrepreneurship - Li Jiankun wrote these two words on a white paper.

There is definitely nothing wrong with this word. There was a popular movie in 1974 with this name.

Then he added the word "home" at the end.

Anyone who pursues a better life through action can be called an “entrepreneur.”

If you submit materials under this name, there is a high probability that there will be no problem——

……

call--

The magazine settled here, it was like a garden-style office.

It is not easy to start a magazine. There are many qualifications that need to be applied for.

The person leading the way was an old man with a hunchback.

Today I came over with Li Jiankun to view the house.

Such a touching price... When Li Jiankun bought his first house in his previous life, he almost burst into tears when he emptied his wallet and took on a thirty-year loan.

"You two, take a good look. Apart from the royal ones, I dare say you can't find another one in this courtyard in the entire capital."

The house is located in Dongcheng, adjacent to the Forbidden City, and there is a pond in the backyard... There is no need to go into details about the specifications. In future generations, the starting price will be more than a small target.

……

The information Wang Shanhe collected.

In fact, it didn’t take long for this courtyard house to be returned from public ownership.

I don't know whether it's because of fear or some other reason, but the Jin family intends to sell it.

"Can you give me an accurate estimate of how much it will cost? I've seen it and if it's suitable, we'll take it immediately." Xiao Wang asked.

So he took a step back, put aside his inherent idea of ​​starting a company, and planned to buy a courtyard house.

The spring breeze in February is like scissors. The Gregorian calendar was definitely not popular in ancient times. The "February" mentioned in the poem is exactly this time.

"My boss said it's a guaranteed price of sixty-eight thousand."

Li Jiankun is still confused about his relationship with the owner of this courtyard, the Jin family.

Now it seems incredible.

Strolling beside a pool of clear water, there happens to be an old willow tree beside the pond, which has just sprouted some buds. This poem seems very suitable for the situation.

Li Jiankun has been looking for a place for the magazine these days, thinking that he will give it to Miss Shen in the future. The rented house is not suitable, so he should buy it. The suitable places are probably all owned by the public and it is impossible to buy it.

Even according to the current market conditions, the price is not expensive.

In 1985, the average house price in the capital had exceeded 1,000 yuan, and it was not unusual for an area like this to cost 1,500 yuan per square meter.

So one hundred square meters is fifteen thousand yuan.

You must know that this courtyard covers an area of ​​far more than 500 square meters.

The owner of the house is bidding this price because he is afraid that if he bids it higher, no one will be able to afford it. After all, it is almost 70,000 yuan.

So even if we talk about it now, Li Jiankun is still making money.

"Old man, let your boss come over."

"Where's the money?"

Li Jiankun made an invitation gesture and led the hunchbacked old man back the way he came.

The latter was waiting in the house just now and did not go out. Now when he came outside the courtyard gate, he suddenly found an unnamed, high-end car parked in the alley.

Seeing Xiao Wang unlock the car door, Li Jiankun walked to the trunk.

The hunchbacked old man's eyes widened: "Is this car yours?"

"Ah."

The hunchbacked old man: "!!!"

He thought to himself, what a loss! The owner is afraid that the price has been lowered!

……

……

"Sister Lan, what kind of place is this?"

"Isn't this some kind of royal garden?"

"Is the magazine office located here?"

Zhou Lan led a few people to the warm courtyard that Li Jiankun had just taken over...or a courtyard-style mansion, which might be more appropriate.

Not to mention them, even though it was the second time he came here, Zhou Lan still felt that his eyesight was not enough.

The feeling of walking in here is not much different from going to the Forbidden City next door. Not long after, the group of people came to the main room in the north of the courtyard.

The original landlord moved some furniture, but most of the old furniture remained. Li Jiankun sat on an imperial chair under the nave. While looking at the seven people Zhou Lan brought, he motioned for them to sit wherever they wanted.

These eight Arhats will be the founding team of "Entrepreneur" magazine.

The other seven people were recruited by Zhou Lan. They were all media practitioners, people who were dissatisfied with the status quo and had the intention to go into business.

Everyone introduced themselves one by one. After Li Jiankun got to know each other, he went straight to the point.

"For a reading material, content comes first. I believe Editor-in-Chief Zhou has already told you what content our magazine will have. I hope the content of the first issue will come out as soon as possible. Other work is also in preparation. I want to start a business." Home’s first issue will be published at the end of this month.”

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, wondering if I was too hasty?
"Mr. Li," someone raised their hand and asked, "Do we have a printing factory?"

"I said, other work is being prepared, this is not something you should worry about."

The person who asked the question smiled, thinking that Mr. Li didn't seem to be as easy to talk to as Zhou Lan said.

It can only be said that he doesn't understand Li Jiankun yet. It's okay for him to laugh and joke in private, but work is work and must be rigorous and serious.

If you look at Li Jiankun and Effie, you will know that they treat each other as brother and sister in private. However, in the company, Effie still calls him chairman and get along with each other in a superior-subordinate relationship.

"Our content is actually not difficult to create. There is no shortage of material in newspapers and newspapers, and each material can be used to write an article." Someone said.

"Do not."

Li Jiankun waved his hand: "I don't want such content. The relevant materials in the news and newspapers can only be used as clues. The story of entrepreneurship and wealth I want must be true and accurate, and even allow readers to find the truth in the story after reading the article." Protagonist.”

Everyone looked at each other.

"Then we need to conduct interviews on the spot." Someone said.

"That's right." Li Jiankun nodded, "Remember, not making false or vague content is the principle and bottom line of an 'entrepreneur'."

"In this case, the content will not be so easy to produce," someone raised his hand to speak. "At this stage, we can still collect the stories of entrepreneurship and wealth here in the capital, but in the future, the material will definitely not be enough. Do we have to go to other places to do it from time to time? Interview?"

"Why not?" Li Jiankun asked, "Isn't this the job of media workers?"

Everyone: "..."

"I know we don't have enough staff now, but we will continue to recruit people and expand the team."

Li Jiankun continued: "In addition, we can also develop external staff. For example, in the far west, we want to obtain information there, but it is unrealistic to travel there often. So can we develop a few information collection staff there? "

Everyone's eyes were bright, this was a good idea.

They have all been in the media circle. In fact, they have accumulated some connections and resources. For example, a comrade from a newspaper somewhere in the west asked him to help collect relevant information and paid him according to the manuscript. I believe no one would refuse it. additional income.

"There is another principle that everyone must remember."

Li Jiankun said: “Our magazine will be divided into three sections: entrepreneurial stories, ideas for getting rich, and product information. The collection and use of these three types of information must be in compliance with policies.

"For example, after the dual-track price system was introduced, many people relied on connections to get supplies from factories and became rich. Such entrepreneurial stories and ideas for getting rich are definitely not advisable.

"What kind of information do we want?
“For example, rural areas develop breeding industries, set up handicraft workshops, self-employed individuals and private enterprises with licenses, their stories of successful entrepreneurship and wealth, and the products they create that are popular in the market.

“In a word, it must be legal and compliant.

"Otherwise, if we publicize it, not only will the magazine be in trouble, but it will also be of no benefit to society and readers."

Everyone nodded frequently, deeply convinced.

"I think our information collection, or interviewing, is actually not difficult."

Zhou Lan said with a smile: "Think about it, if we go to interview an entrepreneur, we just need to tell him this: after accepting our interview, we can publish his product information in the product information section of the magazine, which is equivalent to free of charge." Advertise for him. People who do business always want to have a constant stream of buyers for their products, so it should be difficult to refuse. "

Li Jiankun handed her a thumbs up.

"And as our 'Entrepreneur' magazine becomes more and more famous, interviews will become easier and easier." Someone added.

"If we don't get it right, people will chase us for interviews." Someone said cheerfully.

This is not a whim, they are not novices, they are all experienced media people, and they can understand the psychology of the interview subjects better than anyone else.

These days, there is no such thing as being low-key. Everyone wants to be in the news for their good deeds, so that they can shine in the countryside.

In addition, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people, even those who are not short of money, to promote their workshops, small factories, and products. It can even be said that there are no channels.

Zhou Lan couldn't help but think of what Mr. Li told her last time. After the magazine became famous, there would definitely be many people looking for them to advertise. Advertising revenue would be the magazine's main profit point in the future.

It's really predictable.

She remembered again what Mr. Li said: Everyone is looking for ways to get rich these days, but no one wants to come over to ferry...

She suddenly felt that starting the "Entrepreneur" magazine was really wonderful! There's a lot to be done!
For a moment, it was like taking a shot of chicken blood, and I was very excited.

"I will lay all the hardware foundations of the magazine. Your first priority now is to come up with good content. The first issue of the magazine is very important.

“The creativity is first-class, and I will give you first-class supporting facilities and sufficient business funds.

“My goal is simple, I want to be an instant hit as an ‘entrepreneur’.

"Everyone, please tell me, can you do it?"

Everyone made eye contact and said in unison: "Yes!"

"very good."

Li Jiankun smiled, got up from the master's chair, and prepared to have a meal with everyone, and then give everyone a BB machine. Efficiency is money.

He had already noticed that everyone's eyes were on Zhou Lan's waist, and they were all greedy.
