I haven't been a boss for many years

Chapter 199 Game Start

Starlight News has created an unprecedented miracle.

Single-day magazine sales, 120 million! !

This achievement shocked the entire newspaper industry.

120 copies!

Previously, the newspaper on Hong Kong Island had the highest single-day sales volume of "Oriental Daily". What was the sales volume?

60 million!
This is the figure published by the "Oriental Daily" itself, and there must be a lot of water in it.

And now, "Star Daily" has used "Three-Body" to suddenly increase the highest daily sales of Hong Kong newspapers to 120 million copies, a full increase of [-] million copies!
"Oriental Daily", "Sing Tao Daily", "Ming Pao" and many other major newspapers and magazines, when they learned about this result, were stunned and autistic.

Who could have expected that Sheng Tianbu's "The Three-Body Problem" would be so powerful and turn a newspaper into a work of art, no one else!
But the single-day sales of 120 million copies is not the final result, and it is far from the top.

The development of the matter has made the entire newspaper and magazine industry look forward to it.

With such a strong opponent, you can have envy, but envy is useless, because the two are not at the same level at all, and no amount of envy can catch up.

They also want to know where the limits of these issues of "Starlight Daily" are!
Now, these several issues of "Starlight Daily" have become a cultural phenomenon!
Different from Salty and Wet Magazine, Sheng Tianbu ordered Zhan Mi to enter the market with huge sums of money to hype the first issue of "Feng Yue". Yang Du and the others had no such idea at all, but it didn't matter, others did!
A spontaneously popular activity from the people started like this.

Of course, there are differences.

This hot newspaper activity is not for the first issue, but the first issue of "Three-Body Problem", the journal when the entire novel is serialized!

What is fried shoes?It's all about emotion and quality.

Now this is a cultural phenomenon, and the emotional elements are all in place.

Yang Du also cooperated after learning of this situation.

First of all, he ordered all the staff of "Starlight Daily" to do their best to make the quality of these issues of the newspapers top.

Then there are all kinds of out-of-print anti-counterfeiting designs, such as paper, ink, and imprints!

The result of this is that the cost will rise, and then the price of "Starlight Daily" has been temporarily doubled, and no one has any objection.

Weather, location, people and people are all complete!

In ten or twenty years, as long as they can be collected together, these collector's editions will definitely make a lot of money.

The greater Sheng Tianbu's influence, the more valuable these gadgets are!

The first part of "Three-Body Problem" has a total of 206000 words. Yang Du plans to divide it into five serializations. The first issue is 5 words, the next three issues are 4 words each, and the fifth issue is the end!

After five periods, the sales results for each period are as follows:
First issue: 120 million!
Second issue: 130 million copies were sold on that day, and the next day, 20 copies were left, all sold out!
In the third and fourth issues, Yang Du directly increased the print run to 180 million, just to see how big the Hong Kong and Olympic market capacity was. As a result, the final sales of these two issues were:
165 million, 158 million!
In the fifth issue, the first part of "Three-Body Problem" came to an end, and the sales of "Starlight Daily" also reached an unprecedented height.

175 million! !

This was the final sales figure, with 180 million copies printed and only 5 unsold.

The industry is shocked!

All the people in Hong Kong and Olympics added up to less than 600 million, and sold 175 million. Isn't this equivalent to 3 out of every 1 people buying it?
So far, the highest single-day sales of newspapers has been fixed at 175 million, and Starlight News has pushed the highest single-day sales of Hong Kong Island newspapers to an unattainable height!

Even they themselves can't break it!
Yang Du was playing so big this time, and he had already considered losing money. After all, the previous advertisements were so ferocious that they burned money like running water.

But now, it turns out that this is simply a stroke of genius!

As a result, not only did not lose money, but also made millions!
Of course, the profit of newspapers is lower than that of magazines, but they can't stand the brutal sales volume of nearly 800 million in five issues. This is many medium-sized newspapers and magazines, and the sales volume is nearly three months!
Simply stealing money!
The explosion of "Three-Body Problem" also hit countless people in the face.

On the side of cultural and entertainment celebrities, it is difficult to be shocked.

Jin Yong said in public that although he is not very fond of science fiction novels, Mr. Makino's "The Three-Body Problem" is definitely an extremely rare classic.

He even said that Mr. Sheng’s writing was perfect!

The four talents of Hong Kong Island, and the other three also expressed their opinions.

During the show, Huang Zhan made fun of his old friend, saying that once "The Three-Body Problem" came out, his old friend really didn't matter. Mr. Sheng was the No. 1 science fiction novel and an absolute master's work.

He is looking forward to the next two episodes!
Ni Kuang was very embarrassed. Originally it was just a sentence of self-esteem, but he didn't expect that self-esteem became a reality.

Originally, many people did not approve of his science fiction novels. His imagination was enough, but it was too ridiculous. As long as the explanation could not be understood, he would use metaphysics, customs, and theology.

Only not science!

In the past, his science fiction novels were only relatively controversial, but after Sheng Tianbu's "The Three-Body Problem" came out, his science fiction novels were criticized to pieces.

There is no way, the gap is too big, it is completely one sky and one underground!
It is also because of "Three-Body Problem" that all the controversy over Ni Kuang's science fiction novels disappeared, because now, no one regards his novels as science fiction.

Ni Kuang's depression in his heart was conceivable, but there was nothing he could do.

He could only say generously that "The Three-Body Problem" is really great, and Mr. Sheng is even more sharp.

He also said in public that just because of "The Three-Body Problem", Sheng Tianbu has become his science fiction idol. There is nothing to be embarrassed about if he loses to his idol, it is only natural.

With the completion of the first part of "The Three-Body Problem", Sheng Tianbu became a god in one battle.
-
When "Three-Body Problem" came out, "Starlight Daily" had a great reputation, created one miracle after another, shocked the entire newspaper and magazine industry, and made countless people happy, surprised and helpless.

The 72-hour game has also begun.

That night, Tian Yangsheng took action and took down Jiang Lang in one fell swoop. While he continued to be an undercover police officer, he also became Sheng Tianbu's informant.

Liang Kun also did a good job.

As expected, he did not disappoint Sheng Tianbu. Sheng Tianbu did not give any instructions, so he handled the matter beautifully and publicized the fact that Johnny Wang angered Sheng Tianbu.

Sheng Tianbu dialed Liangkun's phone and issued an order.

"Don't worry, Mr. Sheng, I will do it beautifully."

Liang Kun replied solemnly.

He immediately took action and met with Dongxing Dadong, Heliansheng Dengbo and Xinji Li Guosheng in the early morning of the next morning to convey Sheng Tianbu's order.

This command is also very simple, just stare at Johnny Wang!
Not just Johnny Wang, but also all the core staff under his command.

No matter where they appear, everyone in the rivers and lakes must keep an eye on them, and then report layer by layer.

But in fact, this is just a show, and there is no need to report it to Sheng Tianbu.

What Sheng Tianbu wanted was to keep putting pressure on Johnny Wang and make him feel like he was besieged on all sides.

When the pressure is at its peak, he will explode!

That was when he died.

In addition to this incident, Sheng Tianbu asked the Chinese Zodiac to take action and asked Li Jie, Zuo Wei and others to sneak into Mingxin Hospital quietly to conduct a detailed investigation.

Jiang Lang didn't know where Johnny Wang's batch of arms was for the time being, but Sheng Tianbu knew.

Right at Mingxin Hospital!

He needs to investigate these matters clearly first, and then minimize the losses. He will not only give a big gift to Jianming, but also increase his influence again, killing several birds with one stone.

After doing this, Sheng Tianbu contacted Li Wenbin again and told him the general situation.

Of course, there was no mention of where the arms were located.

Then, he mentioned Liu Jianming a little bit.

After receiving the call from Sheng Tianbu, Li Wenbin was overjoyed. He destroyed the Johnny Wang gang. This was definitely another great achievement!
But after hearing Sheng Tianbu mention Liu Jianming, Li Wenbin understood instantly and said quickly: "Mr. Sheng, please don't worry, I will arrange this matter, and Jianming will definitely be the first to do it!"

"Jianming's achievements are obvious to all. He should have been promoted long ago. If a big case like this comes up again, if he works hard for two years, he will definitely be promoted, and he will soon be promoted to senior inspector."

After a few phone calls, everything was finalized, and Sheng Tianbu did nothing else.

From the next morning, things fermented.

Sheng Tianbu gave an order, and all the four major characters took action, and then used them to spread the word to dozens of small and medium-sized characters in Hong Kong Island.

The whole arena moved, and it was incredibly efficient.

The question now is, with so many people, how could it be possible for each of them to recognize Johnny Wang, Jiang Lang, One-Eyed Dragon Mad Seven and others?

As early as when Sheng Tianbu called Liangkunna, he sent over the headshots of a dozen core members such as Johnny Wang, Jiang Lang, and One-Eyed Dragon Diqi.

Each of them printed [-] copies, an exaggerated number.

No one dared not take the matter of the godfather to heart.

Not only that, they wanted to make a contribution in this matter, so they boarded Shengtian, a warship-class luxury cruise ship. Even if they couldn't board the ship, they could just tie a rope and drag themselves away.

So, these guys instantly became famous!
As long as they come out to mix, no one does not know them, and they use such an alternative way to make the whole world remember them.

Johnny Wang soon felt the terrifying pressure of the embattled.
-
Mong Kok, a bustling street.

Johnny Wang appears.

Behind him, as usual, followed many younger brothers, including Jiang Lang, One-Eyed Dragon Mad Seven and others.

The complexion is very ugly.

They found a very strange thing, no matter where they went, there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at them, like thorns on their backs, making them extremely irritable.

Johnny Wang's face was very stinky, and he took the lead.

street corner.

Two young and Dangerous boys were standing in front of a certain newsstand, chatting, seemingly deciding which salty and wet magazine to buy. The discussion was extremely intense, but their acting skills were extremely poor.

Often chatting and chatting, his eyes could not help drifting towards Johnny Wang and others.

It is also understandable, after all, they have not received professional training and are not professional.

When Johnny Wang passed by the two, he suddenly turned around and shouted "Ah" at the two of them, startling them.

"You two are hitting the street!"

Johnny Wang pointed at the two of them fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm warning you, no matter where you come from, don't stare at me again!"

"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

"I will kill you guys!"

The two young and Dangerous boys were stunned and did not answer.

Jiang Lang stepped forward and said, "Forget it, Brother Johnny, this has nothing to do with them, it's all Sheng Tianbu's fault."

Johnny Wang snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Before taking a few steps, someone was staring at him in front of him, and the two guys earlier didn't take his warning seriously at all.

Johnny Wangfei almost exploded with anger!He turned around suddenly, pushed his men aside roughly, walked quickly to the two men, pulled out the pistol from his arms, held the barrel of the gun, and swung the gun to hit one of them hard.

He threw another punch, knocking the other person down.

"Do you think what I said fell on deaf ears, or do you think I don't dare to kill you?"

"Looking for death? Well, I'll make you the fuck!"

Johnny Wang roared hysterically, beat the two to the brim with blood, flipped his wrist, held the gun but was about to open the safety and kill them.

"Johnny, don't be impulsive!"

Jiang Lang's expression changed, he hurried forward, grabbed Johnny Wang's right hand, and stopped him.

Johnny Wang roared: "Don't stop me, I'm going to kill these two bastards who don't know how to live or die!!"

At this moment, there was a crisp applause not far away.

Lin Huaile led people to appear.

He smiled as warmly as the wind: "Brother Johnny is really powerful and brave. He dared to use a gun in the street in broad daylight, and even wanted to kill me and Liansheng brothers."

"You must kill him, otherwise I will look down on you very much."

"Agui, Beckian, you two can go without worries. I promise you that as long as he dares to take action, he will never leave Jordan."

Just as Lin Huaile spoke, the atmosphere of the scene changed instantly.

Those who were still secretive, no longer concealed, or turned around, or turned their heads, their faces were cold, their eyes were cold, and they stared at Johnny Wang, Jiang Lang and others like that.

Johnny Wang's face stiffened.

The other little brothers were terrified.

Accompanied by Zheng Wu, Huang Mao and others, Lin Huaile came to Johnny Wang, made a "please" gesture, smiled slightly, and said: "Brother Johnny, you are welcome, you can do it now."

Zheng Wu, the cashier, sneered: "Damn it, you thought you were the only ones with guns?"

"Me and Liansheng also have it!"

"Not only do we have guns, we also have ten times as many people as them. If we dare to do it, if we can walk out of Jordan, you are my dad!"

As the number one prefix on Hong Kong Island, the number of people is naturally and Liansheng many times.

On this street right now, there are only a dozen people in Johnny Wang and Jiang Lang, and there are about forty people in Heliansheng, and more people are rushing towards here with guys.

Soon, Johnny Wang, Jiang Lang and others were surrounded to death.

In an instant, more than [-] people gathered around the Heliansheng members, and the passersby frequently looked sideways and talked endlessly.

In addition to passers-by, there are also military uniforms responsible for patrolling.

Two policemen, one old and one young.

This is also a classic combination of the police system on Hong Kong Island. After the rookie joins the job, he is often led by senior brothers with several years of experience, which can not only teach some things, but also safer than patrolling alone.

Old does not refer to age, but to experience on the job.

He Liansheng's move almost didn't scare the two policemen to death.

The rookie had just joined the work and was in a period of passion, but he encountered such a violent thing. No matter how passionate he was, he didn't dare to rush in this direction, and his whole body was shaking with nervousness.

Don't know what to do.

The senior brother had experience, so he stood far away and did not come over. Then he decisively took out the intercom and started calling the headquarters. After being connected, he quickly reported what happened here.

Johnny Wang saw that Heliansheng was so powerful, even if he usually licked blood on the tip of his knife, his heart would be terrified.

I cursed secretly in my heart: What's going on with Liansheng? There are so many people here. Do they have nothing to do and just stare at me?
They really guessed it right!
Just He Liansheng, Hongxing, Dongxing, Xinji and the rest of the prefixes, they have nothing else to do for the past three days, so they must keep an eye on them!

Johnny Wang's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Ale, you and I have dealt with each other before. We are old acquaintances and have some friendship."

Lin Huaile nodded and said, "Yes, but that was before. Now if you offend Mr. Sheng, you are offending me and Lian Sheng."

"Let's put it bluntly, Lian Sheng and I will do whatever Mr. Sheng tells us."

"It's not just me and Liansheng, the same is true of dozens of other words on Hong Kong Island, big and small."

"Don't you want to play a 72-hour game with Mr. Sheng? He's very talented and courageous. Then for these three days, all the prefixes in Hong Kong will do nothing but stare at you."

Johnny Wang's lungs were about to explode with anger, and he was squeezed into silence by Lin Huaile.

Lin Huaile shook his head slightly and said: "Zunni, you are very crazy. I have known this before, but what I didn't expect is that you are so crazy that you dare to fight with Mr. Sheng!"

"You said that everyone is shocked by Mr. Sheng, but you are not surprised. Let me show you Mr. Sheng's ability, lest you mistakenly think that the name of someone else's godfather is just paper and does not hold up."

Zheng Wu sneered, glanced at Johnny Wang's other younger brothers, and cursed: "The boss is crazy, and so are you younger brothers, because you are like crazy bosses like him!"

"Now that he is courting death, you are also courting death, even ignoring the lives of your own family and friends. I don't know what you guys are thinking."

As soon as these words came out, a look of hesitation appeared on the faces of Johnny Wang's younger brothers.

Originally, they didn't want Johnny Wang to confront Sheng Tianbu, but now that he was being pointed at and scolded, they didn't even want to.

Johnny Wang was furious, pointed at Zheng Wu and yelled: "Money boy, you are a bastard who only cares about money. You regard loyalty, justice, benevolence and filial piety as nothing. How dare you criticize others?"

"What are you doing now? Instigating my little brother to betray his own boss?"

Zheng Wu was not afraid at all and sneered: "Yes, I just encouraged them to betray, so what?"

"You are going crazy and looking for death, do you want to follow this?"

"Even if this matter spreads to the world, no one would dare to say anything wrong about me!"

"Your fucking head is so funny!"

Johnny Wang was furious and glared at Zheng Wu fiercely: "Push to the street! What did you say? What the hell did you say?"

"Believe it or not, I will kill you now?"

Zheng Wu stared coldly into Johnny Wang's eyes and slowly uttered two words: "I don't believe it."

Johnny Wang is about to explode!
After some scolding, the conflict intensified.

He Liansheng's cold-eyed younger brothers spontaneously surrounded him with various cold weapons such as fruit knives and watermelon knives, and some people put their hands into their pockets, ready to draw guns at any time.

Johnny Wang was startled, and he didn't need the other younger brothers to speak, he knew that he couldn't mess around anymore, otherwise he would end up being beaten to death by Heliansheng in the street.

"and many more!!"

He waved his hands to the left and right, shouted loudly, took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Huaile: "Ale, do you really want to be so awesome?"

Lin Huaile frowned slightly and said, "What did I do?"

"Brother Johnny, it's your old man who is making trouble. My brother didn't do anything, just looked at you twice, and you were beaten like this. He's almost disabled, and the medical bills cost hundreds of thousands."

"Are you saying no to me?"

"Yellow hair."

Lin Huaile pointed towards the two policemen not far away and said, "I think Brother Johnny doesn't know what he has done. Go and call those two sirs over."

"Let them judge."

Huang Mao immediately responded: "Yes, Brother Le!" He raised his feet and walked towards the two uniforms.

"and many more!!"

Johnny Wang shouted again and gritted his teeth: "I've made a mistake, I admit it!"

"I shouldn't beat people just because I was looked at a few more times, and it's my fault for being beaten like this!"

"I'm willing to pay for the medical expenses, is this the head office?"

"Joy! Brother!!"

Lin Huaile smiled slightly and said: "Brother Johnny, look, the matter is easy to solve. If you were so easy to talk to from the beginning, how could you end up like this?"

"Two people, 10 each, then 20."

"So many brothers of mine come here, and each of them always pays a few hundred yuan for the carriage and horses. I don't ask you to ask for more. It's 30 yuan. If you add it up, it will total 50 yuan. What do you think?"

Johnny Wang didn't bother to say a word of nonsense. He waved at a certain man, and immediately someone opened the suitcase, all of which were thousand-dollar bills, took out five stacks of 10 yuan each, and handed them over to He Liansheng and others.

"Go away."

Lin Huaile spoke.

The surrounding Heliansheng members immediately dispersed.

Johnny Wang said nothing, turned around and left.

Lin Huaile calmly stared at Johnny Wang's back and said casually: "Johnny, don't think that Lian Sheng and I are targeting you. That's not right. Lian Sheng and I are indeed targeting you."

"But against you, it's not just me and Liansheng, but the whole world!"

"If I were you, I would buy a boat and run now, and there might be a chance."

"By the way, there is one last thing."

Johnny Wang didn't answer, just stopped.

Lin Huaile smiled and said, "You are not dead now just because Mr. Sheng wants to play games with you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to pass Liansheng and I alone."

"I used to respect you three points, that's because you have a lot of guns, so it's unnecessary."

"But now, if you step over the boundary, I'm sorry, no one will shock you again, no matter how much you pay, you will die."

Johnny Wang cursed in his heart, Tian Yangsheng said similar words at the Regal Club last night!
It's grass!

Johnny Wang still didn't say a word, his face was blue and he led the people away.

Soon, he understood what it means to be embattled on all sides.

Just after he left Jordan and Lin Huaile's site, he was targeted again.

This time, it's new!

The whole street, a pair of eyes, either intentionally or not, are staring at them.

It made them like thorns in their backs, their nerves were confused, and their scalps were tingling!
