Chapter Eleven: Savvy Media!(1/2)
The day after the first game.
Early in the morning, my friends found that there were a few more paper newspapers in the lobby of where they lived.
"Where are newspapers now?"
"Is it good to keep such a tradition? I'm fussing."
The Seidou High School baseball team is undoubtedly a veteran in Kaziyuan.
Although Yuki, the core player who was the core last year, has now left the school.
But there are still many players in their team who participated in Jiaziyuan before.
Like Zhang Han and Yuxiong, they have set foot in Jiaziyuan more than once before.
When they were in the first grade, they were either promoted by chance or because they were incomparable to their strength. They joined the first army of Seidou High School baseball team early.
In other words, they had already participated in Jiaziyuan with the team two years ago and performed very well.
Last year, the two of them had become the core and leaders of the team, almost leading the team to the position of national overlord.
This is their third time entering Jiaziyuan.
Kurata and Shirasaki, as well as Sawamura and Konobu, also dominated Kakoyuan with Seido last year.
They have seen this kind of paper newspaper.
Every time the media is typed and printed, it will be the first to show the contestants.
"Those people are really fast. Many newspapers are not at their headquarters here, right?"
Some contestants couldn't help but raise doubts.
It takes a long time for newspapers to print and arrange their versions. Even if workers work overnight and print out all the newspapers, it will take time to deliver the newspaper to others.
They don't understand very much.
I just finished the competition yesterday, why did I get the newspaper out and deliver it here directly today?
"It's quite strange. Why didn't I expect it last year?"
Sawamura asked in confusion.
Even if he had no common sense, he knew that the headquarters of the Baseball Kingdom was in Tokyo. How could the newspaper appear here early in the morning?
"I just realized this problem now, don't you feel it's a little too late?"
"Do you know why?"
Not only did Sawamura look at Zhang Han, but many of the friends in the Seidou High School baseball team looked at him without any clarity.
Obviously, they couldn't understand this problem either.
It’s easy to say that newspaper editors and typesettings are, but it’s not impossible to print overnight.
The workers in Tokyo can be described as "communication" in the word "communication". If they are determined to do something, their ability to work hard is definitely no worse than those in Zhang Han's hometown.
But if you have to endure it, the printing will be over.
On the second day, it may be delivered to Tokyo locals on the same day. It will take 2 to 3 days to deliver these hotels around Kaziyuan.
Why did they see it this morning?
And this kind of thing doesn't happen only once.
They also encountered similar situations when they participated in the competition in Jiaziyuan last summer. Today they just finished the competition, and the newspapers were placed on their desks early in the morning on the second day.
This is too magical!
Could it be that those express companies that mail newspapers are all run by gods?
"You don't know, why didn't you ask before?"
"At that time, the first time I entered Jiaziyuan, I was nervous. Who has the heart to care about this?"
At that time, the Qingdao friends were really nervous and couldn't pay attention at all.
To put it in the Versailles, only those of the Seido High School baseball team who have entered the team of Jiaziyuan more than once have the heart to consider these messy things.
Those teams that rarely score in Jiaziyuan are full of how to play longer and where can they pay attention to these?
"I haven't asked this question, but I can basically imagine it."
Friends from the Seidou High School baseball team looked at Zhang Han like they were looking at idols.
Although Zhang Han and they are teammates of the same team, many friends of the Seido High School baseball team have different views on Zhang Han.
They never regarded Zhang Han as the same existence as them.
How can people who join the team in the first grade and become the main force of the team be the same as them?
"Tell me quickly, what's going on?"
The curiosity of the friends has been completely aroused.
"In this era of highly developed information, have you never heard of a particularly high-tech thing?"
"What's the matter?"
"Print!"
"Of course things can be printed out, but the problem is?"
Just when my friends asked questions, Yuyuki had already figured it out.
"You mean, print it out in electronic version?"
“ Of course.”
"Why? Why do you do that?"
"There are many intentions to do it. First, we will open up the relationship here and share the newspaper with the players participating in the competition in advance. This will create a particularly profound image in the minds of the players. People will think that the Kingdom of Baseball is such an amazing media."
"What's the use?"
"When they want to interview you, will you refuse?"
"Of course, not."
This kind of scene has appeared in the minds of the Seidou High School baseball team.
If everything is really as Zhang Han said, the reporters from the Baseball Kingdom come to them for interviews, it is indeed difficult for them to refuse.
"Because baseball has been very popular in Tokyo during this period, there are also many media that pay attention to baseball. But when it comes to influence, the baseball kingdom is probably the biggest one. Do you know why?"
This also clicked on the newspapers under my command.
"That's why. Details determine success or failure. When the staff of Baseball Kingdom Magazine do things this way, how can the media that are just starting to focus on high school baseball compete with them?"
Zhang Han himself was amazed.
In fact, he had already figured out this truth last year. It was precisely because he figured out this truth that he was more impressed by the bosses and reporters of Baseball Kingdom Magazine.
They are really amazing.
It was obviously a very simple thing, after their operations, the Baseball Kingdom was greatly improved from the players' minds.
What is the most important thing for a media that focuses on high school baseball?
Sales, sales, or sales.
As long as they do not violate the laws and regulations, their minds should be the same.
That is to increase newspaper sales.
There are many ways to increase the sales of newspapers.
For example, improve the production level, improve the level of reporters, interview more topics that are of interest to the audience, etc.
In the final analysis, there are three aspects in total.
On the one hand, it is to cultivate internal skills and improve one's production level. On the other hand, it is to market the audience so that more audiences can know and like it.
The third aspect in addition is interviewing contestants and supervisors.
In the other two aspects, most media are almost the same now. They can do as much as they have. On this basis, they will do their own articles as well as possible.
In this case, if the media wants to make a name for themselves, they can only choose the third way. That is, they work hard on interviews and interview some other people as much as possible without interviewing supervisors and contestants.
The Baseball Kingdom has come to the forefront of others.
"Just your brain, it's a pity to be a baseball player."
When the friends of the Seidou High School baseball team listened to Zhang Han's analysis, they unconsciously gave their thumbs up.
“You should be a businessman.”
"My knowledge is still far from being good at this. Those who think about this and start doing it are truly awesome."
"Don't say that these are useless, let's take a look at what is written in the newspaper?"
"It won't be Han Sang's news again, right?"
Friends from the Seidou High School baseball team are no longer surprised by such newspapers.
