I am a nobleman in England
431 What is needed is awe
Twenty-one newspapers are integrated. During the reform period, the most important thing is to let everyone from the top down in each newspaper fully understand the purpose and goals of the boss, Arthur Bolin, so that everyone can be confident and innovative in the uncertain future. And vitality is stimulated.
Enterprise reform, the most feared is the confusion of the way forward, the leadership is not unified, and cannot be united. Although Arthur is a bit naive in management, he can definitely be regarded as a good leader, whether it is to control the future. In terms of self-cognition, there are advantages that no one else can match.
What's more, Arthur also knows better than anyone else that a good leader requires a strong consultant team and executive team, appoints professionals in the professional field, and allows them to stay in particularly suitable positions. This is not only good Solving problems in a timely manner can also bring unexpected innovations.
Therefore, Arthur did not lay off the editors and principals of the 20 newly acquired companies. Instead, not only did they stay in office, but in the future, they will be given greater freedom and less constraints.
"If you are walking on a section of the road for a long time, it seems that you can't see the end, but as long as you believe that you can and what you can do is right, then go forward boldly!
Victory is not a decision, a move, a change can be produced, it is a collection of all your efforts, it takes time.All we need to do is to work together and move forward..."
Arthur was very satisfied with the atmosphere in the conference room because of his words. This was the result he wanted, and made these novices in awe.
Because of his age, to truly control this group of veterans in the media industry, what is needed is not ease and harmony, but awe. They need to understand who is their boss and whose job they serve!
"All of you sitting here are veterans in the media industry. The difficulties faced by the newspaper industry should be very clear. I don’t need to repeat them here. I hope you can work together to overcome the difficulties. To be honest, I am The newspapers are not very demanding. I don’t ask you to make money for me. Self-financing is my current expectation of all newspapers."
Arthur also knew that these new subordinates should not be put under too much pressure. The reason for acquiring these local newspapers was not to make money, but to penetrate into the local influence and the power of public opinion guidance. Once the pressure on profit is loosened , The editors in this room will be much easier.
Sure enough, just as Arthur thought, as soon as he heard that he was self-sufficient, all the editors present were taken aback, and then after checking each other, their solemn expressions relaxed a lot, and they looked at the young new boss. , Became very eager.
Arthur sneered at the group of novices who were immediately overjoyed as soon as they heard that there was no income pressure. He is now seeking stability, and when the integration is completed, this group of people will naturally cry.
"For the current dilemma facing paper media, the so-called transformation and innovation cannot be solved by building a website or developing an app. The key is to have a holistic view. First, you must give full play to your advantages, otherwise you will only be eliminated. Regarding the Internet, I just want to ask everyone here, do you choose to stick to the old rules or to be creative?
Will you choose a life of ease, or a life of dedication and adventure?Do you want to be cynics or pragmatic builders?"
Arthur glanced brightly and sharply across everyone's face, and asked a series of questions with a serious expression to torture all the editors present.
"I know that many people in the newspapers, including you in charge, regard me as the savior. I feel that I, a young billionaire, can give the newspapers more financial help and no longer have to worry about layoffs. The outcome of internal turmoil and failure to operate.
Well, these are indeed worth looking forward to and happy, and I will indeed give some financial support, and there will be no large-scale layoffs for the time being.
However, I am no stranger to the newspaper industry. Everyone knows that our Bolin family had a newspaper for a long time, although I have never been involved in the setting of the reporting direction and content-related matters.
But before I took over, it was also at a serious loss, but now, after a series of reforms, it has gotten rid of its losses and has achieved a balance of payments, and it will not take long before it will even start to make a profit.
I know very well how the newspaper got its start, I also know the history and glory of the Times, and understand the core competitiveness of the newspaper.However, my perspective on newspapers may be slightly different from others.
So, this is why, I did not buy a newspaper with a longer history, a larger circulation, and a greater influence.Instead, I chose newspapers in your regions because, in my opinion, regional newspapers are more valuable and can be favored by readers in the region. It is also an important position for newspapers to compete with the Internet in the future!
Having said that, I just want to tell you one thing. The past has been turned over, and a new page has been opened. I have given you the opportunity. Don't let me down, because there is only one opportunity!"
"Wow — pop —"
There was a solemn atmosphere in the conference room. After Arthur finished his last sentence, there was a warm applause. Everyone's heavy mood finally relaxed.
Hearing the next reform plan and goals of the new boss, the editors of these newspapers really finally relieved their minds, and secretly relieved. To be honest, they are most worried about the new boss’s attitude towards their management. As soon as he came up, he held high the layoff butcher knife, because it is understandable that even a young boss would start a major purge as soon as he took over.
Although they did not know the emperor and the courtiers of the celestial dynasty, they also understood that in order to better manage the acquired new companies and enterprises, they would carry out a major management exchange and thus complete the complete control of the new companies and enterprises.
Now that none of this happened, they really want to thank God...No, thanks to Arthur Boleyn for his new young boss.
The next meeting time was for the person in charge of each newspaper to give an introduction and report the details and financial situation of the newspaper to let the new boss know. The meeting lasted for two hours before it ended.
After the meeting, Arthur, led by Garcia, the editor-in-chief of "London Leisure", came to a simple and luxurious office.
"Boss, this office belongs to Sir Rothermere, the head of the United Newspaper Group, but he rarely comes, so after the renovation, he has not used it several times. If you have any special requirements, you can Revise again..."
Hearing Garcia’s introduction, Arthur looked at the classic and luxurious office with great interest. The golden and brown accessories set off the nobility and elegance of classic furniture, the curtains and carpets that gave the classic beauty, and the simple chandeliers made the entire space. It seems that it gives a sense of rhythm and is generous and elegant. The soft light-colored floral art brings a feminine temperament to the whole space, giving people an extraordinary tolerance of openness and tolerance.
"Hehe, let's just do it, there is no need to waste money, it is good enough, sit down, I have something to tell you!" Arthur shook his head and laughed and sat on the boss chair. Regarding this luxurious office, He is still very satisfied. Although the former boss has used it, he is not so particular about it.
