Chapter 95 Exclusive Interview (Part 2)

Andrew Sorkin looked at the tall, handsome, well-mannered young man in front of him, he was not as young and aggressive as he imagined, and the brows on his handsome face revealed a confidence and maturity that did not match his peers.

When Andrew received the call from Old Smith, he was still very surprised, after all, Andy is a man of the hour now. The variety show "Beautiful Talent Show" launched according to his creativity is a mess. Americans are keen on entertainment, and becoming a star is almost every child's dream.

The talent show has undoubtedly become a shortcut for ordinary people to become famous. As long as you have talent, you will not be buried. I heard that the preparations for the second season have not yet started, and the number of people who have signed up has reached a terrifying number.

A song "Five Hundred Miles from Home" sang the voices of many people who are struggling for their dreams in a foreign land. Before the single is sold, this song has been sung by countless people. I heard that the single EP will be sold soon Yes, maybe it will be airborne on the leaderboard.

All three novels entered the best-selling list in four months. Even though "The Da Vinci Code", which had dominated the list for many years, withdrew from the sales list in June, making "The Hunger Games" the second place, it is still surprising. Especially "Inception", with its exquisite story structure and staggering imagination, is Andrew's favorite book in recent years.

The love affair with Yi Wanka, the talent of the man and the beauty of the woman, made the entertainment reporters and paparazzi extremely happy.

Especially yesterday's acquisition caused an uproar in the media circles. Andrew himself felt that Arthur Carter was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Letting a stinky young man run a newspaper that had been in circulation for 20 years was either dementia or insanity. up.

Many people are full of curiosity about this young writer who suddenly re-entered the public eye in May, but he has been refusing to be interviewed, except for playing on the "Ellen Show", and the wonderful contribution of "Saturday Night Live" Sing, and then no media can interview him again.

As a gold medal reporter of "New York Daily", I have met many celebrities and dignitaries. Andy Smith still can't let him work hard on public relations to get an exclusive interview, but the arrangement of an old friend is exactly what he wants. If he is not interested, he is considered an old friend. He will not agree to do an interview in person.

Andy and Andrew made a rest area near the floor-to-ceiling windows, with two soft large beanbag sofas, a square solid wood small table in the middle, and a beautifully decorated wooden box on the table.

Andrew couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he smiled at Andy, who was also smiling, and said, "Havana cigars!"

"Yes, it was given to me by old Arthur when he left. How about you and I chatting while tasting Havana cigars?" Andy gestured for Andrew to take a seat, and he himself sat on the sofa.

"Hehe, what a wonderful idea. This kind of cigar is rare now, and each one makes people reluctant to light it at will." Andrew knew the preciousness of the Havana cigars in front of him, and he probably guessed that there would be no cigars in the wooden box. There are many roots.

These top-quality cigars were actually taken out by Andy to stop Andrew's mouth. He knew Andrew's own preferences and knew that he loved cigars very much. When Arthur Carter moved out of here, he gave Andy some cigars. .

The hand that grabs people is short, and the mouth that eats people is short. The words of the ancestors in the previous life are still in my ears.

The bitter and mean Andrew smoked his best cigar, so he probably wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for him.

Looking at Andrew with an intoxicated look on his face, Andy relaxed a little, pulled the tie with his hands, and was about to completely relax himself, when he sank into the big soft sofa.

Andrew opened his eyes and asked abruptly, "How would you describe yourself?"

Andy was taken aback for a moment, saw the slyness flashing in Andrew's eyes, and replied confidently: "Genius."

"You say you are a genius, is it because of your arrogance?"

"I read a lot of books, and I never forget them.

He has an amazing talent in learning languages. I think he should be called a genius. Young people should be more confident. "

Andy looked at Andrew with a satisfied expression, and couldn't help curling his lips in his heart, isn't it just pretending to be 13, who wouldn't. Andy is not going to be modest with him. These gold-medal reporters don't like you, and they will definitely write biased reports. They don't even mention the interviewed content, and directly inject their personal feelings into comments.

"What made you wake up and decide to buy this paper?"

"It wasn't a sudden idea when I woke up. After selling the talent show copyright, I have been paying attention to various business opportunities, and my interest in newspapers is one of them. I heard that Mr. Carter intends to sell it, so I gave up my vacation. I rushed back to New York in Hawaii, met with Carter non-stop, and finally reached a consensus to start with the "New York Observer" and get involved in the media industry. I feel that it is wonderful, and its brand charm is incredible."

Andrew was quite satisfied with Andy's answer so far, and then asked: "Why do you think you can run this newspaper that has been in circulation for 20 years?"

"Well, I admit that I have no business experience, but I always feel that life is to go through continuous curve learning to achieve the final straight forward..."

Before Andy could continue, he was interrupted by Andrew, "For example, after a year of college, do you apply for a leave of absence? Then use your spare time to fool around?"

"No, no, I chose to take a break from school to realize what I really want to learn. After a year of study, I feel that learning French is too easy for me. After all, I am still very confident in my language talent. As for fooling around It's just a short period of self-lostness, I believe many people have experienced this kind of self-lostness..." Andy looked at Andrew, who was a little embarrassed, with a half-smile.

Andrew's private life wasn't very good either. He wasn't annoyed by Andy's rebellion. He nodded slightly, agreeing with Andy's words.

"You went on to say, how are you going to run the newspaper?"

"I believe in professional things to be done by professional people. I am fortunate that I have a great and experienced team. I think we will do something famous."

"But according to reports the paper loses $2 million a year, how do you plan to turn it around?"

"I have a lot of different plans, and I'm already working on a comprehensive evaluation of the newspaper. The situation is very optimistic. My main task at the moment is to make it profitable. I believe people will see some changes in the next six months. Peter Kaplan will make the newspaper Do better." Andy felt that Andrew's aura had tightened up a bit, and he was no longer aggressive, so he also relaxed and said confidently.

"Will there be a large number of layoffs to reduce losses?"

"No, we will add bricks and tiles instead, integrate more resources, add additional topics and authors, such as me, as a fairly successful writer, I have prepared a wonderful novel that will be published in the next issue of the weekly magazine With serialization, we have the ability to meet the reading demands of a larger readership, and will continue to cater to the existing loyal local readers and expand our influence among young people."

Andy lost no time in making an advertisement, and the "New York Daily" with the largest daily circulation in the United States helped promote it, which will definitely attract more people's attention.

"How do you feel about so much media making a big fuss about your age?"

The corners of Andy's mouth turned up slightly, and he replied with a hint of sarcasm: "Age is my advantage, I thought they were afraid that I have enough enthusiasm, energy and creativity."

"Will you go back to school in the future?"

"Of course, I've been in contact with my school, and I've found a major that I can potentially devote all my passions to in the future, and of course, I won't give up my business."

"Is "The Observer" your commercial project?"

"No, no, it's not a business. In New York, the Observer is an excellent quality property. It's not traded. It's a great brand. It has an elite readership and the best editors. That is to say, in the general environment of either conservatism or liberalism, it has always maintained the position of a bystander. It only talks about the facts. This will always be maintained and continued, and it will not change with a new boss! "
