Blackstone Code

When the benefits and risks are not proportional, most people will choose to retreat.

This can be called a kind of cowardice, but this kind of cowardly behavior will not be criticized.

If you don't sign, you will directly offend a big shot like Mr. Lynch. The current director of the station simply cannot afford such a risk.

The other party doesn't even need to say anything, just a look can make him fall from the position he has worked hard for half his life.

He has more to lose.

Sometimes those who are willing to get their hands dirty in order to flatter Mr. Lynch, they will not only hurt some people to gain the favor of the big shots, but they may also do it to the extreme.

Those people are also likely to be small people, and their ability to resist risks is not strong enough. So why not solve the trouble completely when you have a way, instead of letting the trouble grow up little by little?

With so much risk involved in refusing to sign, could it do any good?

Maybe it just gives yourself a kind of psychological satisfaction, which is still short-lived and will soon be swallowed up by fear.

The risk is infinitely large, the return infinitely small...

The director took out his pen and signed his name on the resignation letter.

He pretended that everything was business-like, "You have fifteen minutes to leave the TV station with your personal belongings. If you exceed this time, we may call security."

Facing the director who had given up and wanted to maintain his last bit of dignity, Momo sneered.

She glanced at the director one last time and turned to leave.

Her heart was satisfied like never before, this is... the sweetness of power!

From the moment she walked out of the office, many people's eyes changed when they looked at her.

People may not know exactly what happened, but they know that this time, Momo won.

News that the well-known host had left the station soon reached the ears of the board of directors, and the station director was called out by them.

Like a well-known host, the TV station is usually willing to keep it in its hands, but is not willing to let it go easily.

This would cause a lot of trouble for the TV station, but the station director did it.

When shareholders learned of the incident and Lynch, everyone remained silent.

If you can't afford it, what else can you do?

After Momo left, she quickly began to contact colleagues or friends with whom she had a good relationship. Lynch's request was to set up a publishing house first, publish newspapers and magazines, and at the same time improve the construction of a TV station.

Compared with the simple process of going to the Social Services Bureau to register a publishing house, the establishment of a TV station is difficult.

The first is the license issue.

The Federation is a very free country and also advocates the spirit of freedom, which sometimes makes it difficult for people to manage.

For example, when the radio station was first auditioning, almost all channels were occupied by private radio stations, and people frantically built radio stations to spread their voices.

So much so that official contact was blocked, so later a bill related to radio stations was promulgated to limit the frequency bands of civilian radio stations, which solved part of the problem.

In fact, TV stations also have similar problems.

Since the federal government passed antitrust-related bills, monopoly has become a taboo word, and no organization is willing to be associated with monopoly.

Although many trust groups are still engaged in monopoly business, the people do not understand, do not know, and cannot find out.

For example, regarding the power supply issue, initially the power supply companies and the power grid were integrated. The power supply company laid its own power grid and then sold the electricity to its customers.

However, after the implementation of the Anti-Monopoly Act, power supply companies were split into "power supply companies" and "power grid companies".

The same goes for TV stations and other TV stations that were born later. To put it simply, TV stations cannot be bound to signal networks and cannot be exclusive. Otherwise, it will be a low-level monopoly model and they will be fined.

To put it more simply, a TV station is a TV station, and a communication network is a communication network.

Since the birth of human civilization, the erotic industry has always been a huge profit industry. Some small organizations have used such a separation mechanism to send their own information into the signal network.

In order to regulate the content of TV programs and prevent minors from being harmed, TV stations have also been restricted.

Only organizations with a license can send their own signals into the signal network, and this license is not easy to obtain.

It takes about half a year from application to obtaining this license.

Before that, we can get the publishing house out first.

In this society, as long as you have money, it is very easy to accomplish something!

With the help of lawyers, several companies were soon established. Lynch alone owned 40% of the shares, 10% was used as incentives, and the remaining 50% was sold to Light of Tomorrow Investments. company.

As for how much it was sold for, that is a trade secret.

Some simple but very effective methods allowed Momo to see Lynch's methods, or the methods of advanced capital operations.

Use one dollar to do things that cost ten yuan or even one hundred yuan. This is capital!

It has only one purpose, and it is extremely simple, that is, more wealth!

"I have recruited some people. Newspapers can be purchased from companies that specialize in selling news information, but magazines..." Momo hesitated.

“My inaugural cover definitely needed to have a heavyweight figure to convince readers to buy a magazine they hadn’t read yet.”

"I'm a little frustrated when it comes to selecting people." She looked at Lynch and frankly expressed her feeling of powerlessness in this matter.

It is not easy to get big names on the cover of magazines. Look at the big shots in the Federation, Mr. President, Mr. Trueman, Mr. Geruno, Mr. Pattu, Mr. Wardrick...

Have any of these people been on the cover of a magazine?

Maybe there was, say when Mr. President was just a politician, or when he first took office, but he hasn't been on it since.

The same goes for other big shots. For people like Mr. Geruno, 99% of the people in the Federation don't know that such a person exists!

The higher up the society, the more secretive it becomes.

So if you want to get a big shot on the cover of a magazine, you can't just invite someone, you have to use favors.

Momo might be able to invite celebrities like big stars, celebrities who are eager to increase their popularity and social status.

It's not that these celebrities are bad, it's just that their class is still too low. She can't do anything about those big shots.

Lynch was a little surprised, "Why don't you just invite me?"

"Do you think I'm not famous enough?"

Momo was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted.

This is Lynch's industry, so wouldn't inviting him be the best choice for the first cover?

Lynch asked again, "What's the name of the magazine?"

Momo provided some names, which are all relatively commercial names, so that people can know what the contents of these magazines are at first glance.

Like "Elite" and "Fortune", some of the names have actually been registered, but this is not a problem at all for the rich.

These names... all have limitations. He put forward some suggestions of his own, "The names you thought of are all very good. I will also give you some of my suggestions. What do you think of "Pioneer"?"

"We can't limit ourselves to a certain field. We want people to understand that we are at the forefront of the times. At the same time, we don't just focus on a few industries, we focus on the entire world!"

Momo's original idea was that this magazine should focus mainly on business content. Lynch himself is a millionaire, and people's yearning for wealth is far greater than exploring nature.

Among the federal non-prime time ratings, the highest-rated programs are those that teach people how to get rich!

People's desire for wealth transcends everything.

However, Lynch has a different view. A factory worker will not spend a few dollars on his way to and from get off work to buy a book whose content has nothing to do with him.

The real target of this kind of magazine is the middle class. It is like a success manual called "How I Succeeded."

People at the top and bottom have little need for it, because people at the top have been successful and they don't need this kind of experience that may not be useful.

As for those at the bottom, they have no desire to succeed, let alone the motivation to try to succeed.

The middle class is indeed an important part of the entire society, but compared to their influence, they are still far behind.

"So we also need some brave reporters and columnists to analyze some social events from a different perspective than the public."

"We not only want to spread virtue, but also let people see the truth, even if the truth is bloody!"

Soon the work team arrived at the villa. They were going to shoot the magazine cover for Lynch, and he would also be the most important content of the first issue.

As Lynch's interviewer was a woman Lynch had never met.

When Momo introduced the lady to Lynch, he spoke a lot of words of praise.

In this era when print media is still mainstream, columnists and reporters do have something to be proud of.

There are some well-known journalists and well-known columnists, and one of their articles is likely to change the future of a person or even a company!

Being able to poach a well-known reporter is also a symbol of strength in itself.

This lady's interview process was very gentle. This is not a verb, but an adjective.

She does not have a strong desire to express herself and will not subjectively deny some of the interviewee's remarks, such as "I don't believe it", "I haven't seen it", "Why don't I know" and so on.

However, some of the questions she asked were quite sharp and direct. Overall, Lynch was quite satisfied with the entire process and content of the interview.

Soon the incident between Lynch and "Pioneer" spread in Bupen. This kind of thing basically cannot be hidden.

Momo digs people everywhere, and there will always be someone who knows what's going on.

Three days later, Severella called Lynch...
