American Fortune Life

Chapter 371: Newspaper Union

Andy sat on the red carpet with a bright, youthful, shiny, beautiful woman, and a crowd of reporters holding cameras high on both sides stood from time to time to photograph.

After all, this dinner is a press gathering, and reporters from all over the family show up. Of course, there are no shortage of celebrities and celebrities. A few people are dinners. It is impossible to get together to eat and chat with a bunch of old men alone. Most Americans are party animals. There is such a face, a chance to get on the news, some small stars, and the models naturally won't miss it.

At the intersection of the hotel side you can see a group of dressed flowers and branches dressed in beautiful tuxedos, waiting in the cold wind for the selection of invited men without a female companion...

When they arrived, Lively and Lipton saw clearly through the window, and they knew that when those women were invited to the banquet, they basically chose to roll the sheets with men at night in order to hopefully add some connections or change their fate.

“Blake, it's not cold, or put on a fur shawl and don't ruin your body for the sake of beauty.” Andy felt Blacklifery holding his arm tight, looking cool ahead, his lips slightly twitching, whispering what only three people could hear.

Blake Leffrey laughed happily, without a big mouth close, strangled, close, waved from time to time, showing his style, listening to Andy's concern, eyeing the journalists' eyes smile into the moon's teeth, whispering softly: “Not cold, let's talk about it after walking through the red carpet... ”

After all, Lipton's five officials Jing, the typical sweet girl looks, and the dress on her body is very distinctive. Plus Andy's arrogance, almost got the three of them into the air. She knew that tomorrow's newspaper would be brushed by her and Lively, and her body would inevitably stick tighter in Andy's arms. Andy's hands on her waist and limbs also moved slightly down, where they were placed on her tailbone, adding a little ambiguity.

Walk into the Four Seasons Hotel lobby like the Grey Marble of the Greek Temple, Andy helps Leverly put on a fur cape, the three of them smile at each other, then slowly walk up to the ballroom upstairs with the waiter, the three of them are in a different mood for the Four Seasons Hotel, Andy loves it here, and the two women roll their sheets with him here for a few days.

Step into the white main keynote, black columns, stairs, fences, furniture banquet halls, marble floors with patterns that reflect people and lights everywhere, golden skyscrapers, a large, chilli-shaped chandelier running through the third floor, the second floor dropping low, a triangular piano just below, an art staircase like an upward flowing river all the way from the ground floor to the third floor.

When Andy walked in with two beautiful women, he caught the attention of a lot of people, looked at him differently, curious, surprised, appreciative, indifferent, questionable...

Pete Kaplan smiled in front of Andy with a glass of champagne from somewhere. “Boss... ”

Andy smiled and nodded as he was about to leave the focal area in front of the lobby door, while Wendy Murdoch, dressed in a blue mopping dress, smiled and nodded, walking over with champagne.

“Andy, you're late. ”

“Oh, you know, it's always a little longer for two beautiful women to dress up. Nice to see you here, your dress is beautiful and amazing!” Andy let go of the two women, and Vindi Murdoch made a pastry, sweet compliment.

“Giggle, still so talkative, I'm not as attractive as the two beautiful girls around you. Is this your Queen S and Queen B.?” Wendy Murdoch laughed happily, looking at the two women behind Andy.

“Let me introduce you to Vindi Murdoch, the owner of the news group, Queen S Blake Leffrey, Queen B Lipton Maester... ”

Andy looked at the two women with a smile and said hello to Vindi Murdoch.

“It's just a matter of time before two enviable girls, Andy, defend your flight and become stars.” Wendy Murdoch's eyes fluttered with colour, measuring the two women, laughing and sighing.

Andy laughed and shrugged his shoulder and said, “They're all great. After all, they're my first TV show, and they're going to get more attention. Besides, actors and episodes are mutual achievements. By the way, how come you haven't seen Mr. Murdoch? ”

Andy is not like Vindi D, who is a good friend to Ivana, and this woman is uncomfortable looking at herself. Think about Blair, who later had an affair with her. Shh, British Prime Minister is really cynical.

Anyway, Andy couldn't appreciate her charm, heard that she and Blair were still feeding each other, intimately making the maids unable to look directly at each other, the old man Murdoch's head was so green, actually Murdoch should forgive her...

“Oh, so I just said you were late, and they were upstairs, two beautiful girls, and I'm going to take you to meet some other friends... ”

Wendy D smiled and invited the two women. Andy smiled down at the two women who looked at him and said to Wendy D, "Thank you. ”

Then he turned around and smiled all the time, and he kept docking his head in Pete Kaplan of Slot D Wendy, and the two slowly walked up the stairs.

“Was the meeting on the second floor long?” Andy asked as he walked.

“It's not so formal, it's not a meeting, people are just chatting, this gathering, it's just a couple of big news groups too much pressure on traditional media on the Internet, hope to combine all the forces to limit the establishment of professional Internet news websites, since this kind of alliance, everyone has equal status. ”

“Huh...” Andy couldn't help but snort at the shamelessness and fantasy of these old guys. In the future self-media era, you can crack down on professional news sites, but how to crack down on people's personal self-media, traditional media being squeezed into the market is an irreversible trend.

Andián walked wide with his mouth slightly curled and smiled confidently into the lounge where the waiter pushed the door open on the second floor.

The blue sky ceiling, more realistic in the light, is surrounded by a grey temple marble cylinder, a large petal chandelier in the middle drops low, and beneath the chandelier is a Persian carpet, a long European-style table, a round blue sofa, and a bright table lamp every two sofas.

More than a dozen truly middle-aged people, the elderly with Jiro's legs, the cigars, the pipes are swallowing the clouds to spit mist, talk about the wind.

When Andy walked in, no one stood up, just nodded at him, making Andy laugh at the look of an old man selling.

Andy and Murdoch shook a hand and greeted the two editors of The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, who met the editors of Newsweek and Times Weekly under Pete's introduction. As for the rest of the old things that didn't give him face, Andy didn't have the habit of putting a cold butt on his face. He nodded with a smile and sat on the couch, listening to a bunch of old nonsense.

“Everybody calm down...” Murdoch was the one who talked.

“This time we are gathered, mainly because in recent years the newspaper market has been shrinking and sales have been declining. The threat of the Internet to the paper media is well known. At present, newspapers have almost established websites. However, the emerging specialized news websites are the biggest threat for our newspapers. They do not need to recruit journalists. Just gather news online, edit the headlines online, and hang them on their own websites, at low cost, or even for nothing.

This time, we just want you to join forces to form an alliance. We all have our own news website to fight this kind of news website. Nobody wants to see a professional news website that combines XING to rob our market, right? ”

Andy has been smiling at a bunch of old guys, some of whom don't even know what the Internet spiders are, and trying to limit the development of Internet news, which is ridiculous.

However, this kind of coalition is still open, there is an understanding of why people take the lead in not participating, the protection of intellectual property rights in the US Emperor is very variable TAI, it is also good for combating websites that use web spiders to gather news.

Andy only knew that intellectual property protection was in place in the United States. He had long considered that the future launch of news APP could not use the Internet spider to collect news. That's why he asked Pitt Kaplan to create a daily newspaper. For future APP applications as a basic platform, the rabbit country's set would definitely not be able to use it. Look, the old guys had already considered it. As long as he dared to use the Internet spider to collect, the bail would be buried by lawyers.

However, in the future, in the age of self-media, everyone is a journalist, and this alliance is a setup, and what people need is quick access to information, the first time they see news events, hunting curiosity becomes the mainstream, well, the headline party is popular.

Andy had no problem with this, everyone quickly reached a consensus. To be honest, this time, Andy also came to get acquainted. Among the old guys, young Andy was so prominent. The 22-year-old newspaper administrator was sitting on the children and grandchildren of the old guys. Now he is sitting on the same level with them, the temper does not drop at all, and many people are impressed.

“Mr. Smith, could you please give us an interview for Newsweek? ”

Andy looked at each other with a smile, "Just call me Andy, Jon's editor-in-chief, naturally no problem, but I didn't think that famous weekly magazines like yours around the world would be worried about the impact of the Internet, after all, the biggest impact of the Internet is the daily newspaper. ”

“Oh...” Jon Micham couldn't help laughing. He knew what Andy meant. The media stabbed him with a huge loss on his weekly magazine, which made the newspaper owner look disgraceful. It was a disgrace to say that more than 4 million weekly magazines were released worldwide, and he actually lost $10 million last year.

Knowing his own business, he may end up with a loss this year. It's just a lot of loss. His boss wants to throw away this bottomless hole, but because of the bank's huge debt, it's not that easy to find a next home to eat.
