Chapter 1085 Empire Group Takes over Oriental Daily!

February 16, 1986.

The eighth day of the Chinese New Year.

Oriental Newspaper Group Building.

At this time, the main executives and editors of Oriental Newspaper Group have received advance notice. The new boss, Sir Yang, chairman of Empire Group, will inspect Oriental Newspaper Group today.

Before Oriental Newspaper was sold to Empire Group, the main management was all Ma brothers.

Including the children of Ma Xiru and Ma Xizhen. After the Ma family sold Oriental Newspaper Group to Empire Group this time, the executives of Oriental Newspaper Group have not changed for the time being.

Including Ma Xiru's son Ma Tingqiang, Ma Xizhen's sons Ma Dengfa, Ma Dengcai, Ma Dengkun and others were all outside the door to greet.

As the saying goes, a gentleman has a minister.

Empire Group suddenly swallowed up Oriental Newspaper Group, and the Ma family must have left Oriental Newspaper Group, but others including the editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, and editor-in-chief should be clear.

In addition, the strength of Empire Group is not ordinary.

Yang Ming's Rolls-Royce stopped at the Oriental Newspaper Building.

There are many luxury cars following behind.

This time they came to inspect the acquired Oriental Press Group.

In addition to Yang Ming and Mai Lisi, there were Tang Shilian, Lin Xiuzhi, Alina, He Chaoxuan, Yingla, and his bodyguard.

The door of the Rolls-Royce was opened.

Yang Ming got out of the car.

He had already recognized Ma Tingqiang, who looked very special in the crowd, and there were many Ma family members around Ma Tingqiang.

"Sir Yang is here."

"Hello, Sir Yang."

In addition to seeing Sir Yang, they actually found that they also saw Imperial Group Cabinet General Manager Mai Lisi, Imperial Group Financial Director, Cabinet Member Tang Shilian, and Secretary Lin and two assistants around Yang Ming.

Ma Tingqiang and others welcomed Yang Ming in.

The editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, and editor-in-chief of Oriental Press Group came to greet him.

Although the main executives are from the Ma family, the editor-in-chief and deputy editor-in-chief are outsiders, all of whom are from the literati.

Ma Tingqiang introduced several other Ma family members to Yang Ming, that is, his cousins. Yang Ming just nodded and didn't say anything.

The newspaper group of Oriental Daily, the best-selling newspaper in Hong Kong, has more than a thousand regular employees.

Among them, there are more than a thousand people at the headquarters of Oriental Daily Building, and there are also hundreds of foreign correspondents.

As for those part-time reporters, they are not counted.

In other words, under normal circumstances, Oriental Daily Group employs thousands of people, and it can't make much money just by subscribing to newspapers and advertising fees.

Under the leadership of Ma Tingqiang, Yang Ming visited the various departments of Oriental Daily Group.

Among them, the most important one is the information collection department.

This department receives information from all over the world, and then integrates and distributes it through various departments.

In addition to the daily newspaper, Oriental Daily now also has evening newspapers, etc., as well as some magazines.

The most influential newspaper is the Oriental Daily News. Its contents are all-encompassing. Readers can know what is going on in the world without leaving their homes. In addition to Hong Kong and world news information, there are also business, entertainment, sports, football, horse racing, supplements, "Longmenzhen" where famous people gather, "Zhenglun" and "Kung Fu Tea" that criticize current problems, which are comprehensive, all-knowing, cross-era and cross-regional newspapers for readers to vent their dissatisfaction.

The most influential.

In addition to horse racing, there is also dog racing.

And the hidden information in it.

Ordinary people cannot understand the hidden information in it, but those hidden gentlemen can see the transaction place, transaction time, and even transaction location in it when they see the Oriental Daily News every day.

In history.

The Ma brothers also made their fortune in this way at the beginning.

So, since MacLehose became the Governor of Hong Kong and ICAC was established, in addition to the four Chinese detectives in Hong Kong being hit, the Ma brothers have been hit because of their involvement in these things.

Now that Yang Ming has acquired the Oriental Daily News, it is impossible for him to be the same as before.

Coming to the conference room here.

In addition to Ma Tingqiang, there are Ma Dengkun, Ma Dengfa, Ma Dengcai and others, that is, the Ma brothers, who know that they have to give up their positions.

After all, the Empire Group has spent 1 billion to acquire all the shares of Oriental Daily, and the Ma family no longer has any shares in Oriental Daily.

According to the situation of the Empire Group and Sir Yang, it is impossible for the Ma family to stay here.

Ma Tingqiang took the initiative to stand up and said: "Sir Yang, I officially resign from any position in Oriental Newspaper and Oriental Daily."

In addition to Ma Tingqiang, all other Ma brothers and Ma relatives also took the initiative to resign.

Yang Ming could not retain them.

In addition to the Ma brothers and Ma relatives, all resigned and replaced a group of people.

The remaining are some important positions, including editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, editor-in-chief, etc. These are outsiders and belong to the category of professional managers.

Yang Ming just didn't know these people.

However, there is a person named Zhou Shi.

Zhou Shi is a literati and is now a deputy editor-in-chief.

As for the Oriental Daily, from today on, it officially becomes Yang Ming's "voice". Those who do not obey him and have different ideas and values ​​will definitely not stay.

Wait until the Ma family leaves.

Oriental Newspaper Group and Oriental Daily gave up more than ten important positions at once.

These positions will either be promoted by those who stay now, or re-assigned by the Empire Group Cabinet and Secretariat.

"Everyone, I don't care what Oriental Newspaper Group really did before, but from today on, Oriental Newspaper Group and Oriental Daily are mainly engaged in media. As for those illegal things in the past, they no longer exist from today."

I don't know why.

Zhou Shi and others finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

They joined Oriental Daily for such a long time, in addition to really liking this industry, it is also because Oriental Daily's salary is good.

Although they can switch to other media newspapers in Hong Kong, it is hard to say about income and benefits.

Now that Oriental Newspaper Group has been acquired by Empire Group, it is equivalent to hugging a real big tree.

"As for the issue of new position adjustment, it will be decided by the Empire Group Cabinet and Secretariat. I am here to remind everyone that you can also follow the direction of Oriental Daily's future development. As long as you don't commit any crimes, your salary and benefits will be better."

When others left.

Yang Ming left Zhou Shi.

The original president and editor-in-chief of Oriental Daily were from the Ma family, and Zhou Shi was only the deputy editor-in-chief.

Historically, it was not until the 1990s that Zhou Shi began to serve as editor-in-chief.

Zhou Shi was very surprised. He didn't expect that he would stay and serve as the editor-in-chief.

In other words, he was the beneficiary of the Ma family's departure. He was directly promoted from deputy editor-in-chief to editor-in-chief. His position, identity and status were different.

"Zhou Shi, I want to hear how Oriental Daily was operated before?"

Zhou Shi said it in front of Yang Ming, Mai Lisi and others.

The other party said it in detail.

Mainly because Hong Kong is a big city for horse racing, many people like horse racing very much, so horse racing is very popular.

And dog racing is not only related to the fact that rich people in Hong Kong like to keep pet dogs.

In addition to these, martial arts novels that have been popular in Hong Kong since the 1960s and 1970s are still very popular now. For example, Jin Yong directly supported Ming Pao with his martial arts novels, which increased Ming Pao's daily sales from thousands of copies to tens of thousands, and even to more than 100,000 copies.

It is enough to see that readers in Hong Kong still like martial arts novels very much.
