Chapter 11 You see, how beautiful the phoenix blooms

Speaking of the CVD virus, Ivy remembered the "SARS" more than ten years ago. Most of the young reporters on the channel are in their early twenties and know very little about the epidemic.

"Will this epidemic of CVD virus be like SARS back then? Ai Wei asked excitedly, a little afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

Fan Jingjing is known as the "encyclopedia" of movement, and as long as she is there, all questions can be answered. She hasn't worked in Taiwan for a long time, only more than four years, but she naturally loves to inquire, from national events to scandal anecdotes, there is nothing she doesn't know.

She took a sip of her drink and talked about the incident more than ten years ago, "I remember when I first entered Taili, Sister Bing gave training to our new employees and talked about the situation when SARS broke out. At that time, few reporters in Taiwan dared to go to the hospital for interviews, and Sister Bing took the initiative to invite Ying to go into battle, and she had to go to several hospitals every day. After returning to Taili from the hospital, no one dared to approach her. Once she had rhinitis, sneezed a few times, and was almost sent to quarantine. ”

"What else?" Ivy listened with relish.

Sister Bing said that at that time, what people were afraid of was not the disease itself, but the unknown of the disease. In the early days of the SARS outbreak, no one could tell you exactly what the disease was, let alone any medicine that could treat it. Every day, a large number of patients are dying, and even medical staff are infected, as if it was the end of the century. Everyone is helpless, rumors are flying all over the sky, and some foreign media are maliciously hyping up, and the white vinegar on the market is sold for 100 yuan a bottle. ”

Speaking of this, Ivy nodded vigorously, "Yes, I have the impression of this, every day the classroom smells of white vinegar." ”

Fan Jingjing continued: "Later, the whole world worked together, and in less than a year, the virus was effectively controlled. With the experience of fighting SARS back then, I think the CVD virus is no problem. I've seen the news that many agencies are developing CVD vaccines. So, don't worry too much. ”

The big head is not interested in the conversation between the two at all, he never eats for more than ten minutes, and is holding his mobile phone, fighting in the world of the game.

Ivy sighed: "I really worship Sister Bing, I have experienced and reported so many major events, the SARS epidemic, the lifting of Shen Wu, the Wenchuan earthquake, the investigation of water pollution, and the explosion of dangerous goods warehouses, I really can't count them." I really want to be a good journalist like her. ”

Fan Jingjing frowned, and pretended to be deep: "How can anyone succeed casually? The price that Sister Bing has paid over the years is not something that ordinary women can bear. She was more than three months pregnant and went to an unannounced visit, which caused the fetus to be miscarried. Every day when I go out early and return late, my husband runs away with another woman. When Sister Bing went to Wenchuan to report on the earthquake, her mother was seriously ill and died, and she didn't have time to see her for the last time. Therefore, journalism is not suitable for girls, I advise you to change careers and become editors. ”

Bai Bing is a well-known iron man in Taiwan, and whenever a major event occurs, she rushes to the front line without hesitation. In the profession of journalists, women who want to make a name for themselves need to pay more effort and a greater price than men.

"I'm going to be a journalist, and I'm not afraid of it. Ivy looked up, a proud expression on her face.

"Have you watched too many TV series?" the big head interjected coldly.

"Go, go, you don't interject. Ivy wrinkled her nose and waved her hand in disgust.

"Ivy, aren't you taking turns off for a few days, what are you going to do in the afternoon?" asked Fan Jingjing.

"Go home to catch up on sleep, I'm sleepy. Ivy said as she covered her mouth with her hand and reflexively yawned.

"Tomorrow morning's department meeting, new interns will be assigned. This year, there are a few handsome guys from Communication University, all of whom are fresh and tender. If you come early tomorrow, you have to be fast, and you will be robbed of it if you are late. After Fan Jingjing finished speaking, he squinted his eyes and smiled, and his smile was meaningful.

"Xian Xian Tender, are you talking about interns, or sashimi platter?" the big head snorted disdainfully.

"You know, you have an eye-catching intern under you, and you will be much happier at work. Isn't it, Ivy?" Fan winked at Ivy.

Yes, it's summer vacation again. Ivy didn't respond to Fan's eager, she put her chin on her hand and looked out the window.

There are several tall phoenix trees in the yard, the top of the canopy is at the same level as the six-story podium, which was planted when the TV station was first established and is more than 30 years old.

Phoenix wood, also called the jacaranda tree, the plant is tall, the crown is dense, the ancients poetically described it as: "the leaf is like the feather of the flying phoenix, the flower is like the crown of the phoenix". At this time, it is the flowering season, and the phoenix flowers full of trees are dazzlingly red, and among the bright green leaves, they are crowded and blooming one after another, like a beating flame.

This poetic scene, falling on Ivy's eyes, is as bleak as a discoloration of the photo. She remembered that five years ago, the first encounter with Mu Tianze was under the phoenix tree full of flowers. It was the summer vacation of the third year of high school, and it was also such a midsummer afternoon.

On that day, Ivy had just received an offer of admission to the Conservatory, and she was excited to see what the university campus was like. She took two bus trips to the university town in the western suburbs of Zhuhai-Macao City.

The phoenix trees on both sides of the school road are in full bloom, and the broad canopy of the trees is like a large umbrella stretched out, blocking the dazzling sunlight overhead. A warm wind blew, and a pleasant rustling sound sounded in my ears, and the small leaves mixed with red petals fell from the branches.

Ivy looked around curiously and walked down the school road towards the campus. Mu Tianze appeared in her sight like this. He stepped on Luoying all over the ground and walked towards her, with a tall posture and a smile on his eyebrows.

She was stunned, and her heart felt like there were countless deer on a rampage.

At the moment when she was about to pass by, she didn't know where she got the courage, and suddenly stopped him. "Senior, may I ask...... One time. ”

"Hmm, is there something wrong? He turned and gave him a friendly look.

"Do you know how the orchestra goes?" she whispered shyly.

Mu Tianze pursed his lips suspiciously, and then showed a bright smile, "Classmate, I think you should have gone to the wrong campus." This is Middlebury University, and you're looking for the School of Music, which is across the street from our school. ”

Ivy scratched her head, her cheeks burning with embarrassment.

"I'm just about to go out, you follow me, I'll take you there. Mu Tianze generously proposed.

"Thank you, thank you, senior. Ivy followed him step by step, a stir in her heart that she had never experienced before.

A few rays of sunlight shine through the shade of the trees and sprinkle on his snow-white shirt, reflecting the golden spots of light......

Time is like a running train, without any emotion, moving forward on the established track. In the blink of an eye, years have passed, and things are not people. The past that I deliberately want to forget, but it has never faded from the memory. The former lover has long been gone, and only cold memories remain, inadvertently crashing into her mind, gnawing at her scarred heart.

"What are you looking at?" Fan Jingjing saw Ivy with a dumbfounded expression, opened her palm, and waved it back and forth in front of her eyes.

Ivy came back to her senses, grinned a little, and pointed out the window, "Look, how beautiful the phoenix flowers are." ”

"Hey, don't you say I haven't noticed. Fan Jing raised his eyes and said to himself, "What is the flower language of the phoenix flower...... I remembered it, parting and missing. ”

Parting and missing? What a flower language for the occasion! Ivy smiled bitterly in her heart.
