Chapter 1568 Restoring the Impact

Of course, the seriousness of the matter is far from the point of confrontation between the government and the private sector. Although newspapers like "Sanya Express" are private media, they must also accept the jurisdiction of the Haihan Propaganda Department, otherwise they will not even publish newspapers.

In the current situation, it is not difficult for the Propaganda Department to put a little pressure on the Express newspaper to change the direction of its reporting. If the newspaper can turn white into black, it can also

To restore the impact of turning black into white, we will probably have to rely on newspapers as a propaganda channel.

"Since there is no foreign force behind the scenes, the matter will be easier to handle. Find out who the boss of the Express is and invite him to come to Fort Victory for tea and talk. The matter will be solved." Schneider is a very pragmatic person and immediately

This provides an easy-to-operate solution.

"No need to check... Just now when the Security Department went to check the verification, I checked the information of the Express. The backstage boss of the newspaper is Li Nai." Ning Qi said with a look of helplessness.

"Li Nai? This is really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple... It seems that I have never heard him mention investing in a newspaper before!" Tao Donglai couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this answer.

Speaking of which, Li Nai is one of the very few Ming people who are treated as one of their own by the high-level executives of the Haihan Executive Committee. As early as the early days when the Travelers came to Sanya, Li Nai maintained a very close relationship with them because of business relations.

They had close contact with each other, and even came to Sanya from Guangzhou to live permanently. Li Nai himself is a person who has a strong ability to accept new things, and the various novelties of Haihan Kingdom made him linger on, and later he even interacted with

The senior officials of Haihan are called brothers and their relationship is very close.

As the third son of Fulifeng Trading Company, Li Nai has invested in many industries in Haihan, including plantations, restaurants, various handicraft workshops and other industries, as well as special industries such as Golden Shield. With the

Haihan's overseas colonies continue to increase, and Li Nai has been following Haihan's expansion to invest in emerging areas. The total number of investment projects in Haihan's jurisdiction so far is estimated to be nearly a hundred, large and small.

There are many, and Yu Haihan is enough to be among the best among the wealthy businessmen who cooperate with him.

It is precisely because Li Nai has invested in so many business projects in Haihan that even the senior officials on the executive committee may not know all of them. No one expected that the protagonist of this news incident was actually one of Li Nai's investment targets.

.

Ning Qi explained: "The founder of this newspaper is not Li Nai, he also bought it halfway. As for why he bought this newspaper, I can only ask him next time we meet."

Li Nai was not in Sanya at this time, so of course he could not invite him to Fort Victory to explain the problem clearly in person. But since this newspaper is Li Nai's property, Tao Donglai and others naturally believed that his position would not be different from Haihan's.

Although the news came a little late, it was better late than never. Knowing that the newspaper was Li Nai's property, it would be easier for the officials to have a sense of proportion when handling this matter.

"Since it is Li Nai's business, let the newspaper clarify it quickly. The pace must be set in the direction we have set." Tao Donglai immediately decided on how to handle the matter.

The deviant rhythm of "Sanya Express" has to be brought back by them. As for the next issue of the newspaper not being published until three days later, this is not an unsolvable problem. Just let the newspaper publish a special issue temporarily. Of course

, a special issue of this nature will probably not have any advertising content, and the newspaper will ninety-nine times lose money in it. But this cannot be blamed on others. Who caused the Express to cause such a big trouble?

Xu Zhengye, who had been so worried that he didn't even rush home, finally received the latest official instructions before midnight. The Propaganda Department asked the newspaper to publish a special issue as soon as possible to clarify and correct some of the views in the article published the previous day.

This issue of the newspaper that has been published is currently being recycled as much as possible to restore the wrong influence caused by it among the people. Of course, these expenses must also be borne by the newspaper company.

At this time, Xu Zhengye didn't even dare to say a word. He was interrogated over and over by Xu Qiqi for several hours. He had almost finished telling the story of his eight generations of ancestors. He was afraid that after the other party finished questioning him, he would put him in jail.

But in the end it was the Propaganda Department, not the Security Department, who gave him the order. Finally, a big stone fell in his heart. Although this decision would cost the newspaper company a lot of money, at least he and the newspaper company were safe.

Of course, Xu Zhengye did not forget his subordinate Xun Pengcheng. After asking Xu Qiqi, he found out that Xun Pengcheng had not suffered much, and the security department just wanted to confirm whether his actions were directed by others.

Xu Zhengye thought to himself, who else could he be instigated by? Of course it was just me. But the things that were to be handed over to Xun Pengcheng were not instigated by him. The Propaganda Department asked to write a new report to clarify the truth. This errand

It also had to be done by Xun Pengcheng so that he could make up for his mistakes.

There are currently seven or eight kinds of newspapers and periodicals published in Sanya. On certain special days or when emergencies occur, it is not new to temporarily issue special issues. However, the next day I heard that there was a hot topic in the "Sanya Express" the day before yesterday.

News, citizens who wanted to buy a copy were surprised to find that this newspaper was out of stock in the market, and was replaced by a special issue issued by "Sanya Express" early this morning. The content of the special issue was still the same as yesterday's issue.

The topic on the page has changed significantly, but the point of view has obviously changed.

"Our reporter interviewed many people familiar with the matter overnight and found that there were some incomplete details in yesterday's report. Today, we hereby issue an article to inform the general public of the inside story..."

Compared with the slightly exaggerated and ridiculing style of the previous day's newspaper, the content in this special issue seems much more rigorous, and it doesn't even look like the style that a newspaper that mainly focuses on gossip news should have. And almost all the storytellers in the newspaper

All the teahouses and restaurants in the market received the new special issue and requested it to publicize it as soon as possible.

Of course, a discerning person can immediately understand that something happened to the front-page article published in yesterday's newspaper, so this method was used to save the impact. As for whether the newspaper was under official pressure or out of

What other considerations led to such a move? The viewers have no time to care, because as long as they read it, they will find that the content in this special issue is actually more exciting than yesterday's.

Yesterday's newspaper mainly guided readers to discuss whether Haihan should sell arms to objects like the Matalan Kingdom. But today's newspaper has changed its direction, and it is already leading the discussion on how to sell arms to the country.

The sale of arms to foreign countries is in the best interest of Haihan. The article takes the Netherlands and Madaram as examples to briefly explain Haihan's considerations of not selling arms to them before.

In terms of broad horizons, the quality of the citizens of Sanya is certainly unparalleled in the Far East of this era. This city brings together businessmen, navigators, adventurers from all over the world, and even most of the citizens

They are not native-born locals. They have been to different countries and experienced various customs. In addition, as the political and economic center of Haihan, Sanya has advantages in information aggregation and dissemination speed. People here are very interested in international affairs.

They understand the situation well enough to understand what the content of this special issue means.

The grievances between the Netherlands and Matalan are not complicated to explain. The two countries have fought several times in the past few years to compete for control of areas near Java Island. Matalan has slightly taken the initiative in the situation.

But the actual outcome of the war was that both sides had their own victory and defeat. When it was difficult to determine the winner, the two countries unanimously thought of upgrading their equipment, and the only country that could provide them with higher-level military equipment was of course Haihan.

Due to well-known reasons, Haihan did not agree to sell weapons to the Dutch at the beginning, and the Dutch settled for the next best thing and used other non-public political conditions in exchange for Haihan's agreement not to sell weapons and equipment to Matalan.

Hence the scene where the envoy of Madalan was unable to get what he asked for, and finally transported the gold bricks to the gate of Victory Fort to show his sincerity.

Of course, the special issue did not specify what the non-public conditions used by the Dutch in exchange for this agreement with Heyhan, but it is obvious that the Matalan country is at a clear disadvantage in this regard, and they cannot come up with a more tempting offer.

Haihan had more favorable conditions to negotiate, so he could only use the simplest and crudest method to try to use money to change Haihan's attitude. And this scene happened to be witnessed by the editor of "Sanya Express", and then there was

The article from the previous day.

Fortunately, after communicating with people familiar with the matter, relevant people in the newspaper discovered the fallacy in their work in time, so they published a special issue overnight to correct and explain the previous day's report. At the same time, we also hope that the public

We understand that the executive committee's prudent attitude in handling this matter is not due to problems with the internal work connection, but to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the current situation based on the principles of being responsible for the country and cherishing peace.

This kind of rhetoric obviously comes from official instructions, but no one will think that there is anything wrong with the Express newspaper's bowing its head. In the hearts of the vast majority of citizens, the Executive Committee is the supreme existence, and the newspaper's previous question itself is

It's disrespectful, and the official's willingness to explain the situation to the public in this way is already a very kind and generous move. Of course, what the public doesn't know is that all this is just because the Express's backstage is strong enough. If the boss behind the newspaper is

If there are others, it is really possible that they will be ordered to close their doors by the Propaganda Department before dawn.

Su Keyi saw this special issue sent by his subordinates while eating breakfast. He read the above content word for word and did not speak for a long time. To be honest, he did not understand the true attitude that Haihan officials wanted to express with this move.

Are we going to open the door to the arms sales ban and warm it up in this way first, or are we going to pave the way for our subsequent refusal to sell arms?

Su Keyi wanted to gain the initiative for the East India Company in this competition, just like when he signed the embargo agreement. As long as he could limit the performance of the Malta Blue Country, then he would have achieved his goal. But there was a prerequisite.

, that is, he must first understand what the official intention of Haihan is, and he must take the right medicine before he can gain anything.

But Su Keyi has been dealing with the senior officials of Haihan for so long, so he naturally knows how difficult this matter is. These senior officials of Haihan are all old foxes who are good at calculating, how can he easily feel the pulse. Even this newspaper

The clarification was also so ambiguous that it was difficult for him, the person involved, to discern the true intention.

In the guest house not far from Victory Fort, Madalan envoy Luo Hong also saw this fresh newspaper at almost the same time. Luo Hong was already proficient in Chinese characters, so he did not need anyone else to translate him at the moment and could read it by himself.

Get up. After reading it once, Luo Hong shook his head and started reading it again from the beginning. However, several of his subordinates next to him could not understand the contents of the newspaper, and they were scratching their heads and ears anxiously.

In fact, Luo Hong recognized all the characters in this newspaper and could read them together, but like Su Keyi, he still couldn't feel what kind of attitude Haihan officials wanted to express through this special issue after reading it.

.Compared with yesterday’s report, today’s article basically has no obvious tendency. It is just stating objective facts. Luo Hong wanted to find some hints that are beneficial to his country, but he did not succeed.

"Haihan people... what on earth does this mean!" After reading it three times, Luo Hong finally couldn't help the anger in his heart and slammed the newspaper on the table.

"General, have the Haihan people rejected our request?" One of his subordinates asked quickly when he saw Luo Hong getting angry.

This question actually eased Luo Hong's mood a little. Yes, haven't the Haihan people not expressed their stance on refusing to sell arms? As long as they haven't expressed their stance, it means there is still room for negotiation. It is useless to get angry here.

It doesn’t help. But this trick of transporting gold bricks doesn’t work after being used once. It’s impossible to transport two cars of gold bricks to the gate of Victory Fort every day for display. Not only will it fail to make Haihan submit, but it may also be counterproductive.

.

Luo Hong paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to find a breakthrough. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he returned to the table and picked up the newspaper again: "This is what the people of Haihan care about!"

Luo Hong did not have a clear understanding of newspapers as a media in the past, and even now he is not much better. But this incident made him realize that Haihan executives attach great importance to the news published in newspapers, especially their opinions.

For conflicting content, the authorities will even put pressure on newspapers to clarify it in this special way. If we can grasp this key point, we may be able to find the right path.
