Chapter 273 Wuhun Daily (Additional Update 20, Additional Update Completed)
"If I remember correctly, this should be what you call resource integration." Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, "Using soul guides to replace manpower can indeed save a lot of personnel costs. However, most of the personnel who were originally engaged in transmitting intelligence will inevitably be laid off after the appearance of soul guides."
Golden Crocodile Douluo echoed: "Yes, if these people cannot be assigned to other positions, they may be dissatisfied."
Since Han Yu said these things, he naturally thought about how to solve them.
"My next reform will be to arrange for these people. Don't worry, second brother, wait until the great priest and His Holiness the Pope have allocated the personnel, then we can talk about it."
About half an hour later, Bibi Dong selected a list of more than ten pages from the thick list of personnel and handed it to Qian Daoliu.
"Eighth Priest, continue."
Han Yu immediately stood up and said: "What I am going to say next should not be considered a reform, but an innovation. I plan to establish a martial soul daily."
"What is this?" Everyone was puzzled.
Han Yu smiled faintly, and then spread out the newspaper he had designed in advance in front of everyone.
"This is the Wuhun Daily. Its function is to report some things on the continent in the form of text and pictures."
"You see, the first few pages are all about the whole continent. In the following pages, there are news reports about local cities. For example, if there is a physical injury in Wuhun City, it can be reported."
"But this part of local news will not be seen in other places after leaving Wuhun City."
Qingluan Douluo asked: "In other words, major events on the continent will be reported to the whole continent with the best pages. And the local pages will only report news that affects this area?"
Han Yu nodded, this is what he thought.
Bibi Dong said carefully: "With the size of our Spirit Hall, it is not a problem to send this newspaper to every corner of the continent. However, in this way, the operating costs will soar, and we also need to pay the talents engaged in this field, so the cost of the Spirit Daily will remain high."
"But if each newspaper is priced too high, ordinary people can't afford it at all, and it is not conducive to the spread of news."
"However, this does have a little advantage. If the civilians on the mainland can recognize the Spirit Hall, this newspaper will be a sharp sword for us to stab the enemy!"
Bibi Dong's ability is unquestionable, and her analysis is quite accurate.
"Except for our Spirit Hall, other forces can't do this newspaper thing." Demon Subduing Douluo smiled confidently.
If the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect wants to imitate, they only have some influence among the soul master group, and the civilians on the mainland will not buy their accounts. The same is true for the two major sects.
"The key issue is the price of the newspaper. Eighth Worshiper, tell me how much we should sell it for."
Han Yu stretched out a finger.
"One gold soul coin? I'm afraid that except for soul masters, civilians won't buy it." Ghost Leopard Douluo sighed.
"One bronze soul coin per copy, and the price will be halved for long-term subscriptions."
"What!" Everyone immediately lost their composure.
Considering the paper materials, transportation costs and sales costs of the newspaper, one bronze soul coin per copy, wouldn't this be a huge loss?
"Nonsense, it's just nonsense. This is another project that requires investment. Even if the newspaper is the sword of the Spirit Hall, it is not a real weapon after all. It costs so much money, I'm afraid we have to pay for it ourselves!" Lion Douluo said excitedly.
Blue Luan Douluo patted his shoulder, "Old Four, there are still a lot of empty pages at the back of this newspaper. Let's listen to what the Eighth Priest has to say first." He had a hunch that these empty pages might be a way to make money.
Han Yu put his hands on the conference table and said, "Although Shrek Academy is a rubbish academy, their actions in the Soul Master Competition are worth learning from."
If they were not mentioned, everyone present seemed to have forgotten them.
But as for what they did, some people could not remember.
Golden Crocodile Douluo thought for a moment and said, "Eighth brother, you are talking about the sponsored advertisements they put out during the preliminaries, right?"
"That's right." Han Yu took over the conversation, "Since Wuhun Daily is open to the entire continent, we can naturally promote for some chambers of commerce. The empty pages at the back are all used for advertisements."
"In addition, advertisements are charged differently according to the size of the area where they are placed and the size of the page they occupy."
As he spoke, Han Yu took out the tobacco advertisement and gave an example, "For example, if the advertisement in my hand occupies a single page, the charge is the highest. The price is determined according to the number of issues in which the advertisement is published."
"For example, I plan to occupy the entire page for a month, and it will be placed throughout the continent, so I will pay two million gold soul coins as advertising fees."
Everyone looked at each other and flipped through the newspapers in their hands uncertainly.
It was just a casual addition, but it would be charged so much?
Qian Daoliu said: "If someone from the Spirit Hall wants to place an advertisement, the fee will be 10% to 50% off according to the position, which is considered an internal benefit. However, it is strictly forbidden to help people outside the Spirit Hall to place advertisements."
For Han Yu, he wanted to use the publicity of newspapers to advertise himself from the beginning. When his fame rises, he is fully qualified to confront the Qibao Chamber of Commerce head-on.
Qian Daoliu's words reduced his advertising expenses by half, and all the money saved was golden soul coins.
"However, the page space can be increased. Just add a few sheets of paper. Theoretically, there is no upper limit to the number of ad spaces."
Bibi Dong affirmed: "In this way, it may be a loss-making operation at the beginning, but as long as the first person makes a huge profit from advertising, others will also come. We can not only control public opinion, but also make money, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
Han Yu shook his head, "If that's the case, people will be less interested in buying newspapers. Let's add a gameplay. Every time you buy a newspaper, a set of numbers will be given. We will set up a bonus pool. If the numbers on the newspaper happen to match, you can get "If you want to buy numbers individually, you can choose any number for each copper soul coin. Same as above, we share the same prize pool. If multiple people win, we will share the 50,000 gold soul coins equally." "I call this method, Wuhun Ticket!" Bibi Dong thought for a moment and asked, "So, we have to give out 50,000 gold soul coins every day? In this way, we will give away all the money we earn." Han Yu shook his head, "There are five groups of numbers, each of which is less than 100. You can calculate how small the chance of winning is if the winning numbers are 01, 33, 07, 99, 87, 22. "
