Chapter 116 The troubled season and the golden lion who don't talk about martial arts! (New Volume(1/2)
"World Economic News" (special issue on September 14, 1495)
Hello to all readers who are currently reading this newspaper and those who are preparing to order this newspaper!
I am Morgans, the president of "World Economic News". On this special day today, on behalf of all the staff of our newspaper, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone who supports our newspaper! Without you, our newspaper would not be what it is today!
Maybe some readers are still wondering, is September 14th a special day?
Of course it's special! Because just this morning, a new record was set at the Arena of Dressrosa Kingdom in the New World - the sword fighter Cyrus achieved 100 consecutive victories!!!
This - of course it's a joke~
But this is indeed a real news that just happened this morning - after all, "Don't miss any valuable news in the world, allowing you to connect with the world without leaving home", this is our "World Economic News Service"
purpose!
Ahem, I’m slightly off topic, let’s get back to the point – is September 14th a special day?
The answer is yes, because two years ago today, that is, September 14, 1493, our "World Economic News" carried out an unprecedented major reform.
The "Entertainment Section", "Food and Tourism Section", "Celebrity Interview Section", "Comic Section", etc. that you see today are all highly sought after content since that reform.
gradually figured out.
If there are readers who have subscribed to our previous newspapers, then you will definitely sigh - compared with today's "World Economic News", the previous newspapers are simply inferior to toilet paper!
That's right! What you think is exactly what we think! Even if we let ourselves judge the "World Economic News" before September 14, 1493, we have to say that they are bad - because
This is the truth.
After all, what kind of newspaper is a newspaper that doesn’t even publish cartoons? (Just kidding~)
From 1493 to 1495, two years can be said to be short or long. To say the least, two years is only fifty years of our society's goal of "providing excellent newspapers for the people of the world for at least 100 years."
One percent; in the long run, in these two years
Within a short period of time, our "World Economic News" has developed from a news agency with average competitiveness to "the only cooperative news agency designated by the world government". Our "World Economic News" has also become the world's most powerful news agency with an absolute crushing advantage.
Best-selling newspaper…
"Anyone who reads newspapers has definitely read the World Economic News..."
"The captain's loyal partner, the tourists' competent guide, and everyone's news guide - "World Economic News"..."
“Ever since I read the World Economic News, I no longer have to worry about running out of topics to talk to when I’m dating my girlfriend or chatting with my friends…”
"Don't just drink! Let's talk about World Economic News!"
…
These objective evaluations made by you are the best affirmation of the efforts made by our society in the past two years! We will continue to work hard to make every day's World Economic News better than yesterday's! They are all the best.
Expect!
Of course, on this special day, our website also has some thoughts that we want to express to our readers:
On the one hand, we will conduct an annual world annual three news selection from this year, that is, after the year 1495 of the Hainan calendar, to select the three blockbuster news items that attract the most attention!
And! Our news agency will do our best to interview the parties involved in these three annual news.
Whether it is a high-ranking naval general who represents justice, or a vicious pirate villain who may put the reporter's life in danger - as long as you want to see it, our news agency will do everything possible to bring you the first
Big news on your hands!
As for the other side…
I'm Morgans, your loyal provider of big news! Thank you for subscribing to our newspaper! See you in the next issue!

Holy place, mariegeia, among the powers.
"I still feel that it is inappropriate to hand over such huge profits to a mere newspaper..."
"But they will hand over 90% of their profits to our government. Isn't that enough? They only take 10% of it..."
"That's because your granddaughter actually controls that newspaper, and nearly two-thirds of the 10% income will become your family's income. That's why you said that, right?"
"You can't say that. This income belongs to our family, but it is also shared by all of us world nobles, isn't it?"
The knife-wielding Wulaoxing smiled and said, "What's more, the government's expenditures have become larger and larger in recent years, and the time process for collecting heavenly gold has also become longer and longer. This stable and generous income can be very good.
Alleviating the pressure on government finances..."
"This is... putting aside the bottomless pit of the Navy, the annual maintenance cost of Imperial is a headache."
"As the face of our government, the judicial ship has not increased funding for almost two years!"
"The last time the army's weapons and equipment were replaced was the last time..."
"Marijoia's new city renovation plan can't be suspended due to lack of funds, right? I don't want to deal with that group of rubbish."
"Okay, okay, I understand what you mean,"
The knife-wielding Wulaoxing carefully wiped the famous knife in his hand, "From the two-thirds of the proceeds, another two-thirds will be used as cp0's talent training and activity funds. Of course, the execution department I am responsible for will not participate.
The profit share of this fund.”
"Well...if you think about it carefully, this plan called the 'World Government Welfare Lottery' still has a lot of merit..."
"The investment in CP sequence is always worth it and will always need to be expanded."
"Plans like this that can not only bring revenue to our world government, but also establish a good image of our world government must be strongly supported!"
"Second."

In Marine Fando's office at the Navy Headquarters, Porusalino, who had been promoted to Rear Admiral at the Navy Headquarters, put the "World Economic News" on his desk with satisfaction - Morgans was really born to do news.
In this industry, Porusalino just gave him a few words, and he made this special issue look great.
Of course, satisfaction is not 100%, and Porusalino also has regrets. When he thinks of these regrets, he can't help but sigh.
(Subject to time constraints, the taste is still a bit lacking after all...)
(Whether it is 1493, 1494, or 1495 in the Hainan calendar... there is no real big news, Gensokyo is as calm as ever...)
(Originally, during this period of the plot, there was a major incident of Doflamingo going dark and then killing his father, but now this plot has been changed by me... and even if it has not changed, this kind of thing will never be published in the newspapers.
...)
(As for the rest of the news...tsk, there were some future celebrities born during this period, such as Nicole Robin, Hody Jones, Hancock, Hawkins...etc., but these are all future talents.
Famous people, nothing worthy of attention now...)
(Even Kuzan, who officially joined the Navy the year before last, is not big news...) Gu Yan
(It seems that we can only place our hopes for a surge in newspaper sales next year. In the year 1496, Roger will challenge the Grand Line... Although he may not be famous at that time, but fame is something like this.
Just like the birth of the Five Emperors. Nine points are based on praise, and one point is based on strength...)
Porusalino was thinking about "World Economic News" when there was a sudden knock on the office door.
"Come in."
The person who opened the door and walked in was Porusalino's secretary, Major General Fina, who had become as attractive as a peach in the past two years.
By the way, the reason why Major General Fina has become as attractive as a peach is entirely because Porusalino succeeded in stealing peaches by monkeys in the past two years.
"Colonel, you are reading the newspaper again..."
Fina said helplessly to Porusalino, "Today is already the 15th, it's the middle of the month, if you don't take us out to catch some pirates, we will be ranked in the competition this time.
The last one..."
"Huh? Is the situation so serious?"
Porusalino was a little surprised, "Isn't it the middle of the month?"
"Colonel Kuzan is a particularly passionate sailor, and he doesn't have any dealings with Major General Sakaski. It's not like you don't know this... Under the influence of his fierce competition with Major General Sakaski, all the current generals in the headquarters
They are all working hard to catch pirates and enforce justice, unlike you who sit in your office every day, drink tea and read the newspaper..."
(Don’t worry, his passion won’t last long...)
"This is obviously my job... Also, Fina, let's not look like those kings of scrolls! Just compare with yourself!"
"Haha, do you believe this?"
Fina rolled her eyes at Porusalino, then looked a little confused, "But what does 'Volume King' mean?"
Porusalino was about to use the real situation in the world of pirates to teach Fina what a "volume" is. Suddenly, the text-transmitting phone bug he wore on his right wrist started to move.
Fina turned around very sensibly - this extremely rare text-transmission phone bug is a tool used by senior navy officials to transmit confidential information. Anyone who uses it must ensure that only he or she can see what is displayed on the phone bug.
of text.
Although she is Porusalino's secretary, she will definitely know this secret later, but rules are rules, and Fina still understands this very well.
Porusalino watched intently as the text-transmitting phone bug's eyes slowly danced one character after another. When all the characters were displayed, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"That's okay, Fina."
Major General Fina immediately turned around, "Then let's continue talking about this month's competition, Colonel. I'm serious, you need to be a little more diligent..."
To be continued...
