Fang Xiaorou picked it up and flipped through two sheets, and all the collected were women's leisure columns in recent issues. He shrugged his shoulders in embarrassment and replied, "Didn't you stop working for a while......

Tang Shubai leaned his elbows on the table, his hands clasped with each other. Nodding his head in understanding, he added: "I know that during that time, except for the important news of the war, the decision power of the other pages was directly placed in your hands. But!" here, he raised his right index finger in a special emphasis, "I have been reinstated." ”

Fang Xiaorou pretended to be stupid for a while, and then said again: "Because at that time, Consul Goto talked to several of us page leaders alone. He told me that he had to consult him for all important decisions in times of emergency, and that the Articles of Association were not allowed to be changed at will without his consent. Although you were reinstated, Consul Goto did not retract the order. ”

Tang Shubai couldn't help but sneer, and asked incredulously: "So, you just default that you can bypass me now and decide everything for yourself?"

Fang Xiaorou's hands rested on the sides of the chair, showing that she wanted to get up: "I'm sorry, I'm also responsible for the newspaper by doing this." ”

Tang Shubai lowered his head when he heard this, puffed out his cheeks and slowly exhaled the turbidity with great restraint, and clasped his hands on the table with his hands folded and forcefully. The air filled the room with the smell of danger that was about to detonate. He said: "Your intentions are good, but you don't want to think about it, how can the consul keep the inconsequential leisure page in mind." Besides, there is President Fang in the middle, he is already well, if you have any questions, just go to his old man's house. Could it be that the consul thinks that the president also has a problem?"

Fang Xiaorou stopped talking, but just shook her head.

"Or ...... Do you personally think the president has a problem?"

Sensing that a crisis was coming, Fang Xiaorou carefully avoided the minefield in the center, got up and walked to the back of the chair to stand, and replied at the same time: "What I think about is that I am very old and have just been discharged from the hospital, so in such a summer day, it is not appropriate for him to bother the old man." Moreover, Mr. Consul is meticulous in every detail, and he is more meticulous than us in details. So ......"

Before she finished speaking, a gust of wind blew in her ears, and the wad of newspapers greeted her cheeks so directly. Her eyes were subconsciously closed, her face was turned sideways, and the smell of ink rushed straight to her.

"I know you don't want to convey the idea of returning to the family to female readers. But you were clearly present that day, and you should know in your heart that this was not my decision alone, but a strategy approved by Goto himself. If you have any opinions, you can ask me, instead of being like now. Even if you don't have me in your eyes, or even President Fang, you should always get the consul's consent first. Why don't you go, do you know in your heart that it won't work, so you don't dare?!" Tang Shubai's face was still slightly lowered, only the cold eyes rolled up a little, and he stared at the person behind the chair calmly.

Fang Xiaorou is not as flamboyant as she used to be today, and she doesn't need her face changing technique with coaxing and deception. Because no one will come to her side in this matter. Without backstage, how can you still stand up?

Therefore, she died down, but she was not willing to be captured. She is like a rubber nail, although she can not pierce people out of wounds, but she is always secretly stronger. At this time, she tried to hide the gloom in her eyes, and turned her head to care about whether her clothes had been damaged. It didn't matter if the black Hua Si Ge skirt she was wearing underneath, but the off-white mercerized cloth shirt was not resistant to dirt, and she couldn't help but tear the corners of her clothes and look at them carefully.

Fang Xiaorou is a young woman with a new look, and she advocates that women be responsible for themselves and make decisions for their own lives. Therefore, she did not agree with the method set by Goto. There are so many choices of chess pieces used in the scheme, why did she choose this one? As soon as women's emancipation sprouted, some people wanted to forcibly press them back into the mud, which really made her resentful. However, she is soft-spoken in front of Goto. If you can't see each other, how can you convince them?

Besides, it can't be done when you meet. Not only Tang Shubai and Goto, but also his father and Fang Qian, they are all men, and they are the beneficiaries of women's return to the family, and they will never feel the fear in her heart, let alone help.

In addition to playing this little trick and repeatedly procrastinating, Fang Xiaorou really couldn't find any other practical way.

"You must know that once the thinking of 20,000,000 women in China is transformed into something that can be done by men and women can also be done, then after the war starts, there will be 20,000,000 more troops on the battlefield! This scene is not allowed to happen, and if it happens, then we people will have to bear all the responsibility. Tang Shubai took out military assumptions, wanting Fang Xiaorou to thoroughly understand the deep meaning behind this plan.

However, judging from the results, it does not seem to have any deterrent effect.

"Are you so cowardly, how can you take the threat of 20,000,000 women so seriously?" Fang Xiaorou stomped forward with her left foot, her right hand was inserted into her waist, and there was an incredulous and contemptuous sneer in her eyes, "The general consciousness of Chinese women has not yet reached this height, and even 20,000 men cannot all appear on the battlefield. Otherwise, what else would we want to do?"

She just couldn't figure out the logic here, force, wealth, power, productivity, these things are all in the hands of men. Whether it is recruiting talented people or disintegrating discord, shouldn't we rush to the big army? Embarrassing the disadvantaged groups of women is neither dignified nor richly rewarded.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt unfair, and even felt humiliated, Fang Xiaorou's voice couldn't help but raise a little: "I have the absolute right to speak on women's topics, advocate retrogressive remarks on the page I am responsible for, and make it a serialized feature, can't you think about my feelings? Would you allow an article that shouts that a traitor must not die a good death to be printed on the front page of our newspaper?"

Tang Shubai responded to the word "will" without thinking. Under Fang Xiaorou's surprised and shocked gaze, he put on an old and ruthless posture, and said loudly: "As long as you can open up territory for the empire, even if you want to hold high the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, you can give it a try." That's what I think, and that's what I do!"

Fang Xiaorou looked at the aura exuding from his body, the probability of victory was unfathomable, and he inexplicably possessed great persuasiveness in his momentum. From his voice, Fang Xiaorou seemed to feel that he was weaving a big net, once it was time to close the net, the big fish and small shrimp didn't want to run.

However, it is not enough to smell the smell alone, what about the internal basis and cause and effect?

Tang Shubai didn't have the patience to hand it over to her, and those on the left and right always had to end up in the same way. In reality, some rules are unbelievable, it takes a lot of time to apply, and it is difficult to teach people to be convinced with just one mouth. Because he waved his hand and said, "You send the manuscript to the typesetting room first, and then come back later." I still have something to say about the local news. ”

Fang Xiaorou didn't go out immediately, her left toe rubbed a few times on the ground, and her face was full of mixed emotions. It wasn't until she realized that Tang Shubai would never teach her any mysteries that she walked away.

In the office that suddenly quieted down, there was a staggering movement of turning a book.

Tang Shubai pulled out Li Fengzhu's resume in a document bag and studied it carefully. The resumes of the other people sandwiched together are still fresh, and they make a crisp rattle when they are turned over. But Li Fengzhu's is different, it looks like it can be seven points old, it is soft to step on, and the edge of the lower right corner is about to show fingerprints.

###

The time was just after four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Xinqi put down the things in his hand, walked to the newspaper shelf as usual, and picked up a copy of the newly delivered newspaper of the day in his hand.

Li Fengzhu had been waiting outside the newspaper office for a long time, and only then did he step in.

"Oh—Mies is here!" greeted a few of the people in the club who loved to watch the excitement.

As a result, the busy figures in the room paused one after another. Even reporters who are doing telephone interviews have the urge to pause.

All this in front of him made Li Fengzhu, who originally thought he was fully prepared, constantly break out in cold sweat in his palms, and his face was so red that he could drip blood.

Xu Xinqi, a Sichuan native who is full of optimism in his bones, has not shown his trademark smile during working hours for a long time. He coughed with a straight face, and then said to Li Fengzhu: "I have read your manuscript." ”

Li Fengzhu looked at him with concern, hoping to completely understand his inner thoughts through his eyes, and asked eagerly, "What?"

"We still need to discuss it. Xu Xinqi said, snapped his fingers in the direction of the reception room, and motioned for her to come in and talk.

The renovation of the new building will be difficult to complete for a while, and everyone will continue to endure all kinds of inconveniences. Because the heads of each department almost do not have a separate office, if there are some topics that are inconvenient to talk in public, they have to occupy empty reception rooms or conference rooms.

As soon as he entered the house, Xu Xinqi said straight to the point: "I think the conflict that occurred in the Japanese concession yesterday was too radical. Based on this, I think that in your writing, you do not seem to have explained enough that the essence of the domestic goods movement is right and the original intention of the people to take to the streets spontaneously is not bad. If you don't have a rigorous and comprehensive expression, I'm afraid readers will misunderstand that you have a tendency to be a traitor, and even spread the fire to the newspaper. If you want to change, let's discuss it again. If I don't change it, I'll consider using Chen Jun's article. ”

"Willing to change!" Li Fengzhu only thought about what to do to ensure that the article was published in the newspaper as soon as possible, so he agreed, and the whole person made a posture of throwing himself out of the door, "I'll do it immediately!"

Xu Xinqi frowned, put his hands in his pockets, and the dissatisfied look was really obvious.
