Ten days have passed since Yin Minghong and Yin Yinyin met. Today, the newspaper finally officially opened and Mu Qingmei finally went to work - in fact, the hired people have come to work for several days, but they haven't recruited people until now.

At 10 a.m., the third floor of the newspaper was transformed into a large conference room. The members of the newspaper lined up, and everyone hung a badge to indicate their position.

Although it is a newly established tabloid newspaper, the Department arrangement is quite formal. It is divided into the information department, the comment department, the culture department, the editorial department, the Distribution Department and the printing department. The members of the printing department are not present, and the editorial department is naturally the most staffed: text editing, art editing, proofreading and typesetting. In this era when we can only rely on manual work in all aspects, the editorial department is almost equivalent to manual work in the brain, which requires multiple people to work together.

In addition, there is financial accounting, but naturally the Jing family will send someone to take charge of it and will not recruit outside.

Mu Qingmei was naturally hired. Her current position is "small editor of the Ministry of culture" -- although she is indeed a small editor, is it strange to name her position like this!?

This naming must be Jing Zhengwei's bad taste. He doesn't respect people!

From the article full of malice but awe inspiring in the editor's examination, Mu Qingmei faintly realized that Jing Zhengwei was a cultural man among profiteers, a hooligan among cultural people, and the second ancestor of hooligans - domineering, arrogant, reckless and full of superiority. It seemed that he had not been beaten by poison!

After observing for a week, Mu Qingmei found that the youth newspaper is very different from other newspapers - excluding the coolie Department of the editorial department, the other newspapers have the largest number of members from the information department and the comment department, but the youth newspaper has the largest number of members from the Ministry of culture. The information department and the comment Department add up to only two people - one from each of the two departments!

Just from the position distribution, Mu Qingmei knows that what the youth newspaper wants to issue is definitely not a current political newspaper. The most important thing of current political newspapers is timeliness. Timeliness needs a lot of journalists and comment editors to support it. Moreover, it is not enough to have journalists alone. Journalists have to have cable people. Can any news be published? Is Jing Zhengwei going to publish the kind of articles that openly encourage and secretly confuse the whole newspaper? But that smell is too strong. People will certainly feel physiological discomfort when they see more.

Just when Mu Qingmei was thinking, a man and a woman came into the conference room. The woman is dressed in blue, with exquisite makeup and glasses. She is full of the temperament of "poetry and book in her belly", but her pouch is a little heavy, as if she is overworked.

The man wears gorgeous clothes, has a handsome face, fine eyebrows and hair, and exudes a lazy and rich temperament. Mu Qingmei nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the people in the conference room and said: "Well, I won't say much nonsense. Since you come to Jingjia newspaper, you should know what our Jingjia is - put down your literary ideal and your reserved self-esteem. This is not a place for you to carry words, but a factory for producing goods."

Everyone didn't respond. As Yue Yu said, they knew what kind of job they were applying for. But then again, there was no room for a desk in a xuanzhu County of Nuo University. Scholars who really wanted to use grammar had long been sunk to the bottom of the sea to feed fish.

"The tone of Youth Daily is an entertainment newspaper," Yue Yu knocked on the table: "Although it is in the name of youth, we are not only facing young people, but also young, middle-aged and old people. We don't need to talk about current affairs. What we want to publish is the 'nutrition' they need and the 'reality' they care about."

"First of all, Lu Zhuqing." Yue Yu looked at the art editor: "can you draw colors and pictures?"

Lu Zhuqing was stunned. He subconsciously asked, "what picture?"

"Color map."

"What color?"

"Color map."

"You mean red, blue and yellow?"

Yue Yu's face turned black: "if you make trouble again, I'll let the security guard throw you down from the third floor."

After reading poetry and painting for more than 20 years, Lu Zhuqing, who is usually respected, gentle and polite, blushed: "but what does that picture have to do with the newspaper?"

Yue Yu slapped the table vigorously: "of course it doesn't matter! What newspaper is this? Youth newspaper! What do young people like most? Color map! If you want to attract people's attention and let young people buy our newspaper, of course, you should do what they like! And not only young people, middle-aged and old people like it. Don't you like color map, Lu Zhuqing?"

As soon as these remarks came out, everyone's faces changed slightly. Several female editors had blushed, and Mu Qingmei clenched her fists. That is, there are no charges of "workplace harassment" these days, otherwise Mu Qingmei must directly lift the table and die with a fist.

Lu Zhuqing choked on Yue Yu's words and couldn't answer them. However, Yue Yu was impatient: "Just say whether you can draw or not, but these articles are difficult to attract the general public, because they are either a dialogue between teachers and students or a debate between two people, and there is always one party's point of view is better than the other, so the full text is a kind of" point of view output ". The point of view output is not bad, but there is always a taste of preaching.

However, for those different discussions on the same proposition across the times, the reading threshold is too high.

There is also the most important point, that is, the grammar of the previous articles does not conform to the modern grammar. Even if they are translated, they feel strange and uncomfortable to read, not to mention the sunny spring and snow inside, which is incomprehensible to xialiba people.

The "knowledge discussion area" is to abandon the above shortcomings, integrate all the advantages, and let the respondents discuss and answer with modern grammar around the same proposition.

We are equal and respect each other. No one is greater than anyone. As long as what you say is reasonable, you deserve everyone's praise.

Mu Qingmei can clearly feel the collision of different world views by reading multiple answers continuously.

She seemed to be able to see many people gathered together. These people had different identities, ages and educational backgrounds. Some people were unknown and some people were heard all over the world, but they all expounded their different ideas for the same proposition.

Collision of knowledge.

Collision of values.

Collision between people.

Mu Qingmei saw that her body trembled slightly because of excitement. She handed the paper to the next editor, and then the next editor was also excited.

After the circulation, Le Yu asked, "what do you think of the model of 'knowledge discussion area'?"

"Very good!"

"Very good!"

"It's an epoch-making initiative!"

Even the steady mustard husband could not help clenching his fist: "editor in chief, your idea is really great! I believe that once our youth daily starts to be published, the whole Dongyang District... No, the whole Huiyao will pay attention to us! The newspaper industry will change because of us!"

Mustard husband's words excited everyone, and Yue Yu waved his hand: "it's not so exaggerated. It's good to sell well in xuanzhu county."

At this time, Mu Qingmei asked, "editor in chief, how does the knowledge discussion area work? We discuss several topics every week, then find someone to answer, and then select excellent answers to publish -"

Yue Yu shook his head: "there's no need for such trouble. I'll think of several topics every week. Don't worry, they are definitely topics that will cause debate and reflection."

When it comes to attracting attention, how can the things discussed by more than a dozen of you compare with the hot topics selected by UC Xiaobian in the Internet where fishermen search for gold in big waves? Yue Yu casually recalls a "if tomorrow is the end of the world", I feel that the people in this conference room will be hurt and sad.

Mu Qingmei reluctantly accepted Yue Yu's arrogant idea and asked, "what's the answer? We have to find someone to solicit contributions?"

"Don't ask for contributions." Yue Yu stretched out his index finger and crossed the people in the whole conference room.

"Make up all the selected answers yourself."
