6: The New SCMP, circa 2018
<div>2018 was a year of triumph for the SCMP. New offices in Hong Kong’s Times Square were just one step in an entire rebranding of the SCMP, and they provided a dramatic departure from the dark, dingy headquarters where SCMP had spent years as the flagship newspaper of Hong Kong. Most importantly, the new space acknowledged the importance SCMP’s leadership placed on providing a “diverse, joyful, vibrant environment” in which employees could pursue the profession of journalism.</div> <br> <div>The new brand, with its distinctive colors and logo, was introduced at the same time. A new marketing campaign to promote the new corporate identity was launched. New Products were in the mix. And the new offices, with cutting-edge video facilities, made it clear that the SCMP was on track in its transformation from an analog local newspaper to a global digital media powerhouse.</div> <br> <div>Will the employees, used to a different cultural milieu, warm to the flex seating arrangement? Will they get engaged in the promotion of the SCMP’s new identity and branding?

5: Breaking News
<div>We meet the editorial team tasked with the challenge of creating the content that SCMP’s new digital platform plans to deliver in innovative ways to the world at large. What kind of mind shift is necessary to move from an analog method of putting out news to a digital 24/7 “all news all the time” format? What are their concerns and how do they measure their efforts against that of the big boys in the news business around the world? How will they find other journalists needed to join the old hands at the editorial desk?
