Chapter 40 Vote for 1/3 of the target explosion in the past two years~
Facing Luo Ang's gaze, Hicks thought for a moment.
"Um......"
"In this case, we will have to spend nearly 200 US dollars per person. Will the cost be too high?"
"Will the people from the police station give us so much money?"
"Leon, you know that not every criminal can command such a high price. The person on Binhe Road offered the current price because the total amount of robbery was too high and the police station was anxious to catch him.
."
"The average price for criminal information, I heard old black Willy say, is just a few dozen dollars. In this case, wouldn't we be losing money?"
Luo Ang shook his head, knowing that he didn't understand what he meant, and he was still comparing the price of being an informant on the street.
After measuring the income and expenditure in this way, we will definitely find that the investment is much higher than the gain, so he took the initiative to explain.
"No, only part of the money will be spent by the police station. The detectives have their own informants and will not come to us frequently to ask for information. Even if they do, it is hard to say how much they will give...
."
Luo Ang looked at the confused Hicks and said.
"The person who actually paid for this information was actually the newspaper!"
"Newspaper office?"
"How can they give us money?"
"Those guys only care about what happens in the wealthy areas and will always turn a blind eye to the problems on our side."
Hicks looked puzzled, waiting for Roang's explanation, and he did speak.
"I'll give it to you. Have you forgotten the prerequisites I mentioned for collecting information?"
Hicks thought about it, his eyes lit up and he said
"Reported by the media?"
Luo Ang nodded, with an arc drawn at the corner of his mouth.
“Since they only care about the financial district stories, let’s give them those stories!”
"Only those characters in the cases being reported by the media are our real targets!"
"Think about it, do criminals who commit serious crimes like to hide in the South District after committing crimes in the North?"
Hicks thought about what Luo Ang said and found that it was true. Basically, people who committed major crimes in wealthy areas like to go to the South District because there are no complicated procedures to stay in a hotel or rent a house here.
, you can live there as long as you pay.
This is the best hiding place for wanted criminals, so heavy criminals can always be caught in the Southern District. This is why.
Seeing Hicks's expression, Roang knew that he had begun to figure out the key, and then told him the follow-up process he expected.
"After collecting the important information, I will go to the police station and you go find the tabloid reporter and sell the information for $20 to $50!"
"Or sell it as exclusive information for three hundred dollars. Believe me, those newspapers are absolutely willing to spend a lot of money in order to make exclusive reports on hot news faster!"
Listening to Luo Ang's explanation, Hicks was excited at first, but then frowned.
"But, does this mean we are invading personal privacy or something?"
"You know, vampire lawyers like to use this argument now. I can see it on TV from time to time. Those people use this excuse to extort thousands of dollars from others..."
Luo Ang laughed first.
"If it was a normal petty theft, could he be reported in the newspaper?"
A cold look flashed in Luo Ang's eyes, and he said in a low voice.
"Think about those bastards, for what reason did they get so much coverage?"
"Serial murders, damn child abusers, poisoning and dismemberment, etc."
"Now that it has been reported on TV and newspapers, does anyone still care about the rights of these scum?"
"If anyone is willing to provide information about these criminals, Chicago will give us a medal of honor!"
"and......"
Luo Ang blinked his eyes and said with an inexplicable expression.
"Hicks, we are in the South District. How many lawyers do you think are willing to defend the people of the South District who can't squeeze a few drops of oil out of them?"
"What's more, we are doing this just to accumulate some capital..."
"You should pay more attention to those who are running errands for you. Among them, those who are positive and whose information is highly accurate should be carefully paid attention to, slowly confirm their identities, find those who have no problems among them, and communicate more with them on weekdays.
....."
"No one can say that today's street members cannot be tomorrow's reporters. Even if they can't be regular, they can still be paparazzi for tabloid newspapers!"
reporter?
Paparazzi?
Tabloid?
Listening to the words in Luo Ang's mouth, Hicks suddenly thought of Luo Ang's real purpose. Is this laying the foundation for the establishment of a newspaper in the future?
M-FXXK’s!
Could it be that I will become the owner of a newspaper in the future, drinking champagne every day and shouting at my reporters?
Oh My God!
Hicks looked at Roon with admiration. He didn't expect that he was just working as an informant for the Chicago Police Department, but he could do so many tricks. He even planned a plan for future transformation. What a genius.
!
Not paying attention to his gaze, Luo Ang was still thinking about his plan and what loopholes there were.
As for setting up a newspaper?
That was part of his plan from the beginning. He saw clearly early on that if he wanted to have a higher voice in this society, owning a newspaper would be the most direct way.
Before the invention of television, newspapers were the most direct channel for people to receive information from the outside world. Today, with the rapid development of television, newspapers have not been eliminated. Although sales have declined somewhat, they are still one of the common consumer goods for Chicagoans.
Therefore, Luo Ang longed to have his own newspaper. To achieve this goal, he worked at a newspaper delivery station for two years, not only to earn more money and read newspapers for free, but also to learn more about the newspaper.
Operation.
Before Luo Ang got the Future Post, his life plan was to get admitted to a university majoring in journalism, start as a reporter or editor, and then open his own newspaper after he accumulated enough connections and capital.
When he was about thirty years old, he was able to rely on his own newspaper and its reporters to start to find out the truth about the death of his father Robben!
This is the plan that thirteen-year-old Luo Ang has listed for his future. In the past two years, some of it has been realized, such as joining a newspaper delivery station, understanding the content of the newspaper system, and maintaining excellent academic performance.
Prepare to enter the journalism major.
However, all of this has to be re-planned now. He has a way to accumulate capital now, and he also has the killer weapon of the Future Post to accelerate the growth of his capital.
So why can't he start now and let Hicks start developing those guys?
Isn't a person who is willing to inquire about information and obtains information with high accuracy and speed enough a backup candidate for a reporter?
