Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon
Vol 3 Chapter 756: Give charcoal in the snow and media foundation
Reagan's eyes narrowed, and several thoughts flashed in his mind.
He looked at Xia Yu with a surprised look and said with emotion: "Mr. Xia, you are very humble. If the Washington Star is not a big company, then there are tens of thousands of newspapers in the United States, and not many are qualified!"
Xia Yu smiled and said casually: "It may be considered to be in the whole country, but in my opinion, the "Washington Star" is only the smallest sales of my newspaper, and it is still in a loss now. Reform is underway. If the operation is not good, who knows whether it will go bankrupt?"
The smallest family!
As for whether a loss is not a loss, this is not in Reagan's consideration.
Xia Yu pretended to reveal information unintentionally, and Reagan noticed it again, and he kept guessing Xia Yu's identity.
The one in front of him does not seem to be lying, so he is a media tycoon.
In this special year this year, the importance of the power of the media has risen several levels.
If you want to compete for the top position, you must have a media that speaks for him to promote his political views, canvass for him, and at the same time stand up to the dirty water of his competitors.
Moreover, Reagan was not a person who had never seen the world. Ordinary media magnates did not bring so many bodyguards like Xia Yu, so it can be inferred that Xia Yu had other big industries besides a few newspapers. .
"It seems I was lucky today!"
Reagan thought secretly and decided to explore Xia Yu's bottom line to see if he could seize this opportunity.
As for the exchange of interests that will exist later, he doesn't even think about it.
Because he is in this system, he has long understood its essence, rights and money transactions are eternal.
If he can succeed, he will naturally give back to the forces behind him. If he fails the election, even if a vice president is picked up in the end, he has no real power, and naturally there is no return.
At this time, he has not yet received the support of the Republican Party, so there is not much power behind him. As for the resources in the Republican Party, every point is precious and will only be given to the presidential candidates set by the party. Those who haven't had it can only use their own momentum to win the support of a certain group of people in the party or from society to make themselves stand out, and then gain the full support of the Republican Party.
Therefore, he cherishes every opportunity now, and will do his best to fight for it, and accumulate a little bit for himself.
Thinking of this, Reagan's fishing mind was completely gone, and he continued to chat with Xia Yu.
Aware of Reagan's attitude, Xia Yu didn't rush, and his attitude became more casual. It seemed that he was really just here for leisure fishing.
"Mr. Xia, are you Chinese-American?"
"Yes."
Xia Yu replied indifferently.
That's right, Xia Yu is indeed an American citizen. This is the work that was already done when planning his trip to the United States last year.
He wants to create a large international consortium, and the United States can never get around, so he needs the status of a US citizen.
As for his original British nationality, the same exists.
In other words, he is a dual nationality person, and this is not a problem, because dual nationality is a universal default method in many countries in the world. More than 70 countries around the world recognize or accept dual nationality, including the United States and the United Kingdom. . (This is true, I didn't write it randomly)
Reagan must be American, so he can continue to talk, otherwise even if he obtains Xia Yu's support, it will become a bomb and a weakening point for rivals.
He continued: "Oh, is it from California? In the United States, there are the most Chinese, and I am the most familiar with it. I know some local Chinese leaders."
Hearing Reagan's words, Xia Yu looked at Reagan, frowned slightly, and looked at him up and down.
With a smile on his face, Reagan let Xia Yu look openly.
He said that on purpose just now to see if Xia Yu can recognize who he is. If he recognizes it, it will be more convenient to communicate.
Reagan's plan fits Xia Yu's idea.
The two wanted to know each other, the only difference was that Reagan was active and Xia Yu was active and passive.
After a few seconds, Xia Yu asked hesitantly: "Mr. Reagan, the more I look at it, the more I feel that you are a little familiar. It seems that I have seen you somewhere. Have you been in California for a long time?"
Reagan smiled and nodded, stating: "Yes, I spent a few years in Hollywood, filmed dozens of times in movies, and then entered politics."
Xia Yu was taken aback, and then he pretended to be surprised and said: "I remember, you are a well-known character in California, an actor, and then became the governor of California. Am I right?"
Reagan smiled, nodded and said: "If there is no one else named Ronald Wilson Reagan, I think you should be me."
Xia Yu shrugged pretending to be apologetic and explained: "I'm sorry, Mr. Governor, I am not from California, and I have been to San Francisco several times, so I recognize you now."
Reagan shook his head indifferently, and then laughed at himself: "Oh no, Mr. Xia, you don't have to apologize. I no longer serve as the governor of California after 1975, and I haven't made movies anymore. After so many years. , Very few people should know me."
Xia Yu smiled, and then turned to ask: "By the way, Mr. Reagan, during your stay in California, you made a huge contribution to California’s economy and people’s livelihood. This year happens to be an election year. With your talents, why not go? To run?"
Reagan expressed regret and said with a wry smile: "I have thought about it, but I am not confident enough. I have participated in two elections before, but failed in the Republican presidential nomination. I am getting older and I am going to try again. , This time is still in preparation."
"Unfortunately, the preparations are not enough, and the campaign team and support are not enough..."
After speaking, Reagan looked at Xia Yu and asked: "Mr. Xia, do you support the Democratic Party or the Republican Party?"
Xia Yu put down his fishing rod, thought for a while and said: "I think Jimmy Carter is very incompetent and messed up the American economy. Now the domestic inflation in the United States is very serious and it is very detrimental to economic development. From my perspective, I am temporarily lost to the Democratic Party. Confidence, if someone in the Republican Party can work on solving economic problems, I think I will not be stingy with my support."
After that, Xia Yu looked at Reagan with interest and asked: "Mr. Reagan, you are the first person I have contacted with the intention to campaign this year. You are also a Republican. We may meet here today, perhaps God arranged. , Can I hear your thoughts?"
Reagan waited for Xia Yu's words. He smiled and promised: "Of course it's okay, it's my honor."
Next, the chat between the two went deeper and Xia Yu asked from time to time. Reagan seized the opportunity to explain his ideas and express his views on the current American economy.
In the process, the relationship between the two became familiar.
They are all adults. For the sake of their own interests, they don’t care about their faces. They are even more comfortable in acting. Therefore, they talk and laugh. Outsiders may think they are old friends who have not seen them for many years.
As time passed, the sun gradually set.
Reagan invited Xia Yu to dinner.
In this entertainment area, there are supporting restaurants and hotels, and Reagan directly booked a hotel for a week here.
For the next two days, Xia Yu did not leave, and Reagan would naturally not leave, seizing the opportunity to communicate with Xia Yu.
As he became more and more familiar, he also knew more about Xia Yu, knowing that in addition to the "Washington Star", Xia Yu also owned "New York Daily News" and "Houston Chronicle".
In addition, the arcade machines in the entertainment area were produced by his company, and the Rolls-Royce cars driven by Xia Yu were also produced by his company.
Of course, the few words of banks, securities companies, insurance companies, etc. mentioned in Xia Yu's words made Reagan secretly excited, and his attitude became more enthusiastic.
There are financial conglomerates that are also involved in automotive, electronics, media and other fields. Xia Yu's strength is definitely not small. Although he called the trustee to inquire about the news and has not responded, he has made up his mind to get Xia Yu's support as much as possible. .
Not to mention, if those three newspapers support him, his efforts in the past few days will be far back!
On the third day after arriving at Lake Qilan, Xia Yu felt that the heat was almost over, and finally decided to speak up.
"Mr. Reagan, you are a very thoughtful person. I think you are qualified to take that position. I decide to invest in you!"
In a garden cafe, Xia Yu put down his cup, looked at Reagan with a smile, and said slowly.
Reagan lifted his spirits and his smile became obvious. He thanked him: "Mr. Xia, thank you for your approval. I am deeply honored."
Xia Yu nodded and accepted Reagan's gratitude calmly.
Icing on the cake is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow!
Since Reagan is still before his fortune, then a little investment now will get ten points of benefits. Of course, he plans to spend a lot of money on it, and win more favors from Reagan.
And he was not worried that Reagan would not admit the account afterwards, because this is not a simple sentence that can be uncovered by not admitting the account. In the course of this campaign, competitors will understand Reagan’s background and support forces clearly, Reagan Naturally will bring his color.
In this process, Xia Yu will also become a close partner of Reagan. He will also be very clear about Reagan’s various details or handles. Reagan will never expose the chain of interests between them, so it is impossible to follow him. Xia Yu turned his face, it was not worth it.
Xia Yu narrowed his smile and said solemnly: "Mr. Reagan, I am a very determined person. Since I have decided to support you, I will use my best. I also believe that you are an honest and affectionate person."
Hearing this, Reagan was overjoyed and quickly nodded and said: "Of course, honesty is the foundation of everything I do, and I have always cherished and valued my friends. Now everything has not succeeded, but I can guarantee that I Will not disappoint you."
Xia Yu smiled, and immediately said: "I have your words in my heart."
"Your campaign team needs you to choose and build, but I will do my best to provide you with the funds needed for the campaign and give you the greatest support in public opinion!"
"Of course, with regard to economics, I, including my subordinates, are very knowledgeable. If you need help in this area, I think I can help."
"As for the difficulties you may encounter in the future, you can come to me, as long as I can do it, there is no problem!"
Xia Yu's promise was not small, and it made Reagan feel full of sincerity. He smiled, nodded, and thanked again and again: "Mr. Xia, thank you for your support, thank you!"
After everything was clarified, the relationship between Xia Yu and Reagan became closer, and Reagan did not hide it, and directly explained his current situation to Xia Yu, and then said which aspects need Xia Yu's support.
In terms of funding, it was Reagan's shortcoming. Xia Yu directly made the promise of the first ten million dollars in funding, and guaranteed that the money would be donated in the name of many companies without leaving any handle.
Xia Yu's great skill shocked Reagan, and he intuitively felt Xia Yu's strength.
Of course he also felt Xia Yu's sincerity.
Then came other support, Xia Yu recorded it all.
This talk is one day.
Finally, Xia Yu left Reagan with several contact information and addresses.
After everything was in order, Xia Yu and Reagan said goodbye and returned to New York.
After returning to New York, just to learn that Yan Wenhan had returned from Houston, Xia Yu decided to meet him, order him something, and then go to California.
New York, Jiuding Newspaper Company US branch, boss office.
Xia Yu asked, "Wenhan, how is the situation of the three newspapers?"
Yan Wenhan thought for a while and said: "The New York Daily News and the Houston Chronicle are similar. The two newspapers have been arranged to connect with Jiuding News Agency. If the resources can be reasonably digested, it should be able to achieve certain results."
"As for the "Washington Star", I have re-promoted and appointed some elites, and the abolished personnel have been arranged to join the Jiuding News Agency, and there has been no disturbance. Now I have made appropriate adjustments to the newspaper in accordance with your instructions. It will take a while to see the effect."
Xia Yu nodded slightly and said, "Well, that's fine, let time test the results."
He then asked: "When will the satellites of Jiuding News Agency be launched?"
Although the cost of launching satellites is high, if Jiuding News Agency wants to stand out, it must use satellites. Only satellites can transmit news information at the fastest speed.
To make news, speed is the most important thing!
Yan Wenhan said immediately: "It's coming soon, the order has been queued for two months, and it is expected to launch around March 20."
Xia Yu smiled, nodded and said, "That's good, Jiuding News Agency will continue to expand and strive to have our offices in every city in the United States!"
"In addition to these things, you form a company and start a new newspaper. The newspaper is called "USA Today". This is the planning book I made. You should take a closer look and follow the above."
With that, Xia Yu took out a planning book and handed it to Yan Wenhan.
The planning book of the "USA Today" newspaper was created by Xia Yu in conjunction with the "USA Today" newspaper that has not yet been released and has the highest sales in future generations.
If nothing else, the newspaper will be founded by the Gannett Group two years later, and in less than two years, the circulation will exceed two million copies, ranking third in the United States, and in 1986 In 1991, it became the top of all newspapers in the United States and has been in the dominant position for decades.
The reason why "USA Today" can rise so quickly is not only because it is the first national daily newspaper in the United States, but also because it pioneered the use of a large number of informative photos and graphs to express news, and officially announced the "reading picture". The arrival of the "era" has the title of "TV in the Newspaper".
In addition, Xia Yu’s planning also pointed out the mission of "USA Today"-"Accurate but not pessimistic, detailed but not negative coverage of all news ~ www.ltnovel.com~ It can be said that Xia Yu Combining the advantages of the past decades of the development of "USA Today", I believe that as long as it can be produced perfectly, the "USA Today" newspaper will create the most legendary rise in the history of American newspapers.
This newspaper is what Xia Yu has high hopes for, and it has built the strongest foundation for the American branch of Jiuding Newspaper Company!
Yan Wenhan solemnly accepted the plan and promised: "Chairman, don't worry, I will do my best to make this newspaper."
"Ok!"
"By the way, this is the person I chose to support in the U.S. presidential campaign. The name is Ronald Wilson Reagan. He will definitely contact you in the future. As long as his request is not excessive, you will fully cooperate with him!"
With that said, Xia Yu took out Reagan's business card to Yan Wenhan.
Yan Wenhan's heart trembled, his face solemnly accepted, and his heart was shocked by Chairman Xia Yu's generous work, and his blood gradually boiled over.
He never thought that he would have the opportunity to intervene in the presidential election.
In his impression, the President of the United States is the most powerful person in the world, and now, the chairman of the board of directors is betting at this time. He will be a witness and participant. He can't help but feel honored, and he has great pride in his chest. .
"If you really succeed, what kind of gain will it be..."
A dreamy thought flashed in Yan Wenhan's heart.
Seeing Yan Wenhan in a trance, Xia Yu smiled understandingly.
After that, I talked to Yan Wenhan about work again. Xia Yu left, ready to return to pack up his bags and set off for San Francisco, California.
There, he will officially begin to build his career in the United States.
