General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 711 The media giant who is reborn as a pirate

"Oh? Have you found Blackbeard?"

Rorschach looked at Morgans with some surprise. He didn't expect to get news from him about Blackbeard, who had disappeared for many days.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising at all that Morgans knew the whereabouts of Blackbeard.

In this world without the Internet, if people want to obtain information, they basically have to use a lot of manpower to actively explore.

As for the ability to detect intelligence, or to dig out various news, in addition to the CP organization under the World Government, it is the World News Agency with reporters and freelance writers all over the world.

The reason why Morgans' newspaper has grown so big is also related to his willingness to spend a lot of money to pursue the most authentic and explosive news.

Morgans said seriously: "Yes, just yesterday, our reporters in Totland captured the brief battle between the Ward Pirates and NEO Navy Commander Black-Wand Zefa, as well as Aokiji. And what you are looking for Blackbeard, also known as Marshall D. Teach, should be in the Ward Pirates."

As he spoke, he took out another extremely blurry photo from his pocket.

Rorschach's heart was slightly shaken as he took the photo and glanced at it, confirming that what Morgans said was true.

Rorschach thought like this, then looked at Morgans and asked, "Then do you know where the Ward Pirates went after the defeat?"

Putting the Blackbeard matter aside, Rorschach returned to the topic.

Even if he does succeed in getting Walder's multiplication fruit, it probably won't be as powerful as the dual ability combination of Secretly and Zhenzhen.

No wonder Blackbeard put his idea on his head.

Rorschach was shocked.

Among them, especially Moria's Shadow Fruit, theoretically as long as Moria's spirit and body are strong enough, he can stuff one million or ten million shadows into his body, increasing his power a thousand times. Times are also possible.

Did that guy with Blackbeard regard the seriously injured Aoki Pheasant as a hunting target?

Because in this way, he can be completely relieved that he has established a foothold next to Kaido's Beast Pirates.

After hearing what Morgans said, Rorschach suddenly had a deeper understanding of Blackbeard's insidiousness.

But, why did Blackbeard join Walder's pirate group and get involved with Zefa?

Speed ​​is power, and at this ultra-high speed, ability users can often display extremely terrifying lethality.

Because it also has an increase limit.

Otherwise, if Pamel who ate the Power Fruit had only a few million tons of physical strength, even Akainu would not be stronger than him.

That is to say, Walder's basic strength is really too bad. Otherwise, he would not even be able to take the position of the Four Emperors, and he would be beaten by Barrett, Zefa and the others one after another.

So, is he planning on Bundiwald?
Walder's superhuman multiplier fruit ability is indeed an extremely powerful ability, which can increase the speed of the user by up to a hundred times.

In the photo, the fat black man standing next to Walder with black aura coming out of his body is the Blackbeard who disappeared on Malinfando Island!

After Luo Xia muttered something to Zefa in her heart, she was happy that he could get the ability of Piao Piao Fruit.

Thinking of Blackbeard's Dark Fruit ability, Rorschach's eyes turned cold.

But if he really wanted to fight, he might not even be able to receive Akainu's punch.

and many more……

The Sandworm Fruit that Rorschach encountered in the North Sea, Moria's Shadow Fruit, and Shiliu's Blood Fruit were all capable of increasing one's strength dozens or hundreds of times. In comparison, how could None are weaker than the multiplier fruit.

Luo Xia's mind flashed back to the incident where he contacted Zefa and asked Zefa to pick up Aokiji who had left the navy.

"Not sure. According to the reporter who took the photo, the last two ships of the Ward Pirates disappeared directly after a burst of black gas."

If you follow Akainu's statement, then Blackbeard should be able to acquire at most one more Devil Fruit ability after dying once.

'I'll make a phone call later to ask about the situation. '

Morgans lamented and sighed: "An admiral is an admiral. Although Aoki has retired from the navy, his ability to easily freeze the sea with a wave of his hand is really terrifying. Coupled with the black wrist Zefa, wow, I really didn't expect that old man. He actually obtained the golden lion's fluttering fruit ability without saying a word, so Walder didn't lose unfairly."

This is a strategic level fruit ability.

But since Blackbeard couldn't bear the loneliness and ran away again, Rorschach believed that he would meet him in the new world sooner or later.

A hundred-fold increase may seem scary, but if you think about it carefully, it’s just that.

"What? Mr. Ze Pharaoh... actually gained the ability of a golden lion?"

Zefa?

"Is it the dark acupuncture space of the Dark Fruit? It's similar to the alien space of the Gate Fruit. Blackbeard, Blackbeard, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to still hide this skill."

He is really brave enough to even dare to appear in the waters of Totland.

Thinking of this, Rorschach asked: "What was the result of that battle?"

The old man Zefa is also true. I have talked to him on the phone several times, but I didn't even tell him about getting the Piaopiao Fruit.

In this world, a simple increase in strength is not a very scary thing, because there are also domineering and physical strength, the two most important factors, that check and balance the strength of the ability user.

"The Ward Pirates suffered heavy losses. Under the siege of Zefa and Aokiji, almost the entire army was wiped out. Only dozens of main cadres including Ward escaped."

when did it happen?
He didn't even know about such a big thing.

There is no rush to catch him. In the new world, there are not many people more dangerous than Blackbeard.

He called Zefa's phone number again a few days ago to confirm. He knew that Zefa had not yet found the whereabouts of the injured Aoki Pheasant and was having his neo navy soldiers search around the waters of Totland.

Morgans's answer surprised Rorschach, and at the same time, he finally understood the reason why Blackbeard disappeared in Malinfando.

"What kind of photos does President Morgans want to take?"

Hearing Rorschach mention taking pictures, Morgan suddenly became excited, rubbed his hands and said:

"The best thing would be for you, Rorschach, to appear on the front page of our newspaper together with the entire G5 elite.

Like Thor Eneru, Death Doctor Luo, Titan Pamel, Armored Furry Bear Bebo, Weather Goddess Skylark, and Lieutenant General Rorschach, you are all idols loved by young people all over the world.

If you can appear on the Navy's recruitment poster together, I think it will definitely attract more outstanding young people to join the Navy. "

"Weather Goddess, Titan, Armored Furry Bear? Such nicknames, who got them all?" Rorschach's mouth twitched.

Also, why is Bebo’s nickname so crotch-inducing?

Everyone else is a god or something, but he is still a bear.

Morgans laughed dryly and scratched the bird's head, "You are named by young people from all over the world who like you. As word spreads, everyone will call you that."

Rorschach nodded, looking at the smiling Morgans in front of him and the tens of billions of Bailey checks in his hand, a vague idea suddenly came to his mind.

Perhaps, he can take advantage of this world conscription to put into practice some of the ways to make money that he has thought about for a long time?
For the Navy, military expenditure can be said to be the biggest problem.

The most important reason why the World Government can so easily control a huge naval force composed of millions of troops and several top combat forces is that it controls the economic lifeline of the navy, that is, military expenditures.

As a subordinate agency of the World Government, the Navy does not have its own industry, nor is it allowed to have its own.

Every year, hundreds of billions of military expenditures are allocated, waiting for allocation from the world government.

Once there is no military spending, this huge violent organization all over the world will fall into chaos.

If Rorschach wants to gradually remove the entire navy from the control of the World Government in the future, this problem will inevitably have to be solved.

The little gold brought down from Sky Island only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.

Their navy must have its own industry.

Moreover, this industry has to bypass the world government.

But now, there is a golden opportunity in front of Rorschach.

So, he quickly sorted out his thoughts in his mind, and then looked at Morgans.

"President Morgans, how do you plan to promote our navy's recruitment?"

Morgans was stunned, "How to publicize it? Just... put the news that the navy is going to conduct a global conscription on the front page of the newspaper, and add photos of you, the new and outstanding navy."

Perhaps seeing a hint of disappointment in Rorschach's eyes, Morgans quickly added: "Also, we will let reporters in the newspaper and news writers from all over the world publish some of the bravery of the navy in the newspaper. Stories, or comics, such as Sora, the sea hero of justice..."

"Have you ever thought about using video phone bug projection to place recruitment advertisements in the kingdom's capital, towns and other places with dense crowds?"

Rorschach interrupted his narrative to offer his own advice.

"Use video phone bug projection to show in crowded places?" Morgans was stunned by Rorschach's suggestion.

Who is he?

The world's number one news giant, even without the experience of Rorschach's two lives, just relied on his keen insight in the journalism industry to immediately realize the unprecedented significance contained in Rorschach's short suggestion. huge business opportunities.

Yes!

The video phone bug can be used for projection!
You can use the video phone bug to record the navy's recruitment video and then broadcast it around the world.

Compared with an advertising format where you can hear sounds and see pictures, a newspaper with only text and pictures is simply too simple. Seeing Morgans who was in shock and had already thought of many things, Rorschach felt relieved.

Talking to smart people saves effort.

He just mentioned it, and Morgans could complete the subsequent thoughts and even methods.

However, in order to create greater benefits for his suggestions, Rorschach continued:

"Think of the huge sensation caused by this worldwide live broadcast of the war against Malinfando, President Morgans.

I think your news agency can completely change the monotonous news dissemination method of newspapers, because its efficiency is really too low.

Even if your news agency has seagulls that can fly quickly to deliver newspapers, the world is so large and the climate in various places is extremely harsh. Sometimes the newspaper is delivered to people and the time when the news happens is often a few days behind. matter.

In this case, can this still be called news? Isn't this old news? "

"How many newspapers can a seagull carry? Fifty? One hundred? If you sell one newspaper for 100 Baileys, a hundred copies are only 10,000 Baileys, and the 10,000 Baileys may not be able to be carried smoothly. return.

Moreover, printing newspapers also requires labor costs, opening a printing shop, bribing local officials, paying taxes, etc.

After deducting the costs, the writer's remuneration, and the Seagull's losses, how much is left after receiving 10,000 beli?

Seagulls will also encounter natural enemies such as birds of prey. Those bad weather will also cause losses to seagulls, right?

But if you spread news signals directly through video phone bugs, you lose nothing.

You can even sit in the new world, at the news scene, and conduct live news reports for those who carry the image phone bug, that is, live broadcast around the world.

Time is the most precious money. "

Rorschach's words made Morgans's bird's eyes brighter and brighter, and his breathing became rapid at the same time.

"If we don't sell newspapers, how will we make money?" Morgans panted, bloodshot in his eyes, staring at Rorschach with a hungry look, as if he was looking at a beautiful woman full of temptation.

Rorschach smiled.

"How to make money? Morgans, where is your flexible brain as the number one giant in the journalism industry?"

His words were extremely rude, but Morgans didn't mind at all.

He just looked impatiently, looking at Rorschach eagerly, like a nestling baby bird waiting to be fed by his parents.

"Speak quickly, Lieutenant General Luo Xia, don't be so secretive."

"I can't think of many things. This idea just popped out of my head temporarily. Just give it a listen. I believe that with your sensitivity in this area, you will definitely be able to research more in the future. How to use it.”

Under Morgans' urging, Rorschach poured out all the immature and chaotic thoughts in his mind.

Of course, he doesn't have many detailed and mature methods. After all, he didn't even finish junior high school in his previous life, and it's impossible to learn much advanced knowledge about advertising and media.

All he could think of was looking at this from the perspective of another, more advanced civilization.

“First of all, the video phone bug has a signal band. Only when the signals at two locations are on the same band can the video and sound signals be connected and transmitted.

Therefore, you can set a charge for a specific band for the live video of phone bugs broadcast by your news agency.

Let those who want to watch the news pay on time to connect them to the signal.

As for this fee, you can charge it based on time, every day, every month, or every quarter, every year, and how much Bailey you charge. This is called a monthly or yearly subscription system. "

"Monthly or year-round?" Morgans' beak gradually opened, as if suddenly, a door to a new world was opening in front of him.

And Rorschach was the guide who helped him open the door.

“At the same time, when broadcasting live news, you can insert advertisements and charge fees based on the time of advertisement placement.

Think about it, when billions of people around the world are watching your news agency's live news broadcast at the same time, the amount of exposure you place will bring to the merchant and how much fame it will add to his products.

The exposure rate has increased, but are you still worried about not being able to sell your products? After the product is sold, are you worried that no other merchant will come to you to pay for advertising?
Morgans, I tell you, those businessmen will be crying and begging you on their knees to help them place ads. "

"Billions of people?" Morgans' hand holding the tea cup shook suddenly, spilling the tea all over himself, and then his whole body began to tremble.

“When there are more advertisements, you can set up multiple signal bands to broadcast news from different places, but each band will place different ads, or the number and time of ads will be different.

For example, Alabasta National News, Dressrosa News, Fishman Island News, etc.

At this time, you can also charge additional fees to those who purchase the signal band based on the amount of advertising.

For example, the pure version of the signal band with fewer advertisements is available for a monthly subscription of 1,000 Baileys, and the one with more advertisements is available for a monthly subscription of 800 Baileys. Do you think those who are not short of money would be willing to spend an extra 200 Baileys to avoid advertisements? "

"Yes, of course. To a rich person, what does two hundred Baileys mean?" Morgans himself stopped thinking. The chaotic thoughts in his mind were completely led by Rorschach.

Rorschach said with a smile: "That's right, two hundred Baileys is nothing, but if there are 20,000 people, two million people, or 200 million people, and they give you two hundred Baileys, it will still be two hundred Baileys a month." , what do you think will happen to you?”

Morgans' throat rolled, he stuck out his tongue and licked the bird's beak, and said harshly: "I think I will die miserably."

"Uh..." Luo Xia choked for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

Morgans was right, if he could really make that much money, he would really die, and he would die miserably.

Because that is no longer tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars in business a year.

That was a huge sum of money that made the well-informed Morgans feel numb.

At that terrifying rate of making money, Tezzolo, the world's richest man, had to step aside.

In that case, can the world government still tolerate him?

The Five Old Stars will definitely kill Morgans and let the World Government take over this business.

"Is there more?" Morgans took a few breaths and asked again.

Luo Xia teased with a half-smile, "What? Are you not afraid of death?"

"Just die. Before you die, let me hear if you have any better opinions. Please, Lieutenant General Rorschach." Morgans's face was as heroic as death. The look made Rorschach's mouth twitch.

Rorschach didn't know how much of a turmoil his simple remarks caused in Morgans's heart.

Because this is already a transcendental theory, an innovative theory that can subvert journalism, manufacturing, commerce and other industries.

Luo Xia didn't think so much. He just wanted to find a good way out for the Navy's future military expenditure.

He continued: "In addition to broadcasting news, you can also shoot various types of phone bug images, such as live broadcasts of battles in the gladiatorial arena, desert dances of Alabasta dancers, or real plots of large-scale kingdom power struggles, and then broadcast them through the global Live broadcast, regional live broadcast, put it out. This kind of placement can be bought out by others at a large price, or it can be paid to watch by those who want to watch it. "

"In addition, you can also carry out live streaming of goods directly during the live broadcast. Live streaming means that you help those merchants sell goods, and then deliver them to your door through cargo ship transportation. But this is more troublesome, the world It's too big, and there are countless pirates on the sea. It's very troublesome whether it's collecting money or delivering goods. Therefore, you can narrow the scope of live delivery, such as paying for delivery within a certain kingdom. ? Delivery is..."

"In order to ensure convenient delivery, I suggest you open a global express delivery company. What is an express company? An express company is..."

"Also, you can regularly organize some large-scale events and broadcast them live all over the world. For example, our navy's world recruitment, such as the beauty contest of all races, such as the gladiatorial contest, the Seven Waters City Shipbuilding Contest, and the Food City Food Contest What."

"It's okay to live stream adventures, go to Sky Island, Fish-Man Island, or even live stream to find Raff Drew. As long as you're not afraid of being killed by the World Government, you can do whatever you want. I guarantee you will earn Bailey's and make your hands cramp. ”

The two were so engrossed in their conversation that they actually chatted in the G5 base director's office for four or five hours.

He didn't stop until Rorschach's mouth went dry and until Skylark came over to call him for lunch.

By this time, Morgans had been completely impressed by Rorschach.

The new terms coming out of Rorschach's mouth, the various uses of time differences, the ability of the Video Phone Bug to transmit sounds and images, and the various things he could achieve that he had never thought of, all made Morgans sincerely impressed and admired. He was so stunned that he fell to the ground.

At the same time, after this conversation with Rorschach, Morgans had already seen an epic industrial revolution slowly unfolding before his eyes.

A huge industrial chain that could easily earn trillions, ten trillions, or even more Baileys every year made him completely shaken and unable to control himself.

Money was secondary, but what excited Morgans the most was the sense of accomplishment of being able to realize the things Rorschach said.

What about making movies, TV series, live sports events, live streaming of goods, short videos of video and phone bugs, and shooting commercials.

If you pick one out of them and make it, it will definitely be something that can shock the whole world.

Isn't this more exciting than what he has been paying attention to all day long about the four emperors of the New World fighting and killing?

The more Morgans thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more excited he became, the more he felt that Rorschach was unfathomable.

Not only is he powerful enough to kill the Golden Lion and Whitebeard, he is also so smart.

Any idea that comes out of his mouth can shock him and make him think about it for a long time.

But such an outstanding person is still so humble, saying that his ideas are still immature and immature.

Look, what a noble quality this is?

If Rorschach told Morgans at this moment that he was actually the reincarnation of a god, Morgans would believe it without hesitation.

Because he still hasn't digested the shock that Rorschach gave him.

Rorschach looked at the dumbfounded Morgans, touched his chin, and felt that the time had come. He was about to talk about the cooperation project he had in mind. When he talked to Morgans, he saw that Morgans seemed to have figured something out. As if, he got up from the sofa opposite, walked around the coffee table, and jumped in front of Rorschach. Under the shocked gaze of Skylark, he was so excited that he knelt down in front of Rorschach with a thud, and asked in a voice that was almost choked with excitement. :

"Lieutenant General Rorschach, please cooperate with me to complete these great plans you mentioned above. I am willing to give up half of the shares of the news agency as the price for inviting you to cooperate. These things you said are really too... It’s so powerful. My news agency will definitely be overwhelmed. I need your help and the military support of your navy.”
