Chapter 384: Chai Peng's troubles
After this interview with Chai Peng, Ma Fei did not encounter any difficulties in half a month.
From Lu Yiming to Chai Peng, and then to several department directors who had a holiday with him, they didn't even challenge him, and they made a big fuss about something.
However, Ma Fei didn't feel strange - from Chai Peng's point of view, he was suddenly promoted to such a high position, and he also needed a period of adaptation. As for Dong Hua and others, they had not succeeded in competing for the top position before, and they were somewhat grumbling when they saw an outsider parachuted on their heads.
In other words, they were by no means relaxed their hostility towards Ma Fei, but temporarily turned their attention to Chai Peng.
From this point of view, if what Chai Peng said is true, then Pang Yi's arrangement invisibly dispersed the firepower for Ma Fei. The rebound of Dong Hua and others, as well as the response of Pang Yi and others, also gave Ma Fei an opportunity to observe and verify.
For example, in the first week of Chai Peng's tenure as assistant to the president, he had a conflict with others at a regular work meeting.
The theme of the regular meeting was "Discussion on the Development of Copyright in News Photos," which was chaired by Chai Peng and attended by the heads of the newspaper's editorial departments.
Chai Peng came up to explain his background: "With the development of the Internet, in addition to the income that our press releases can create, photographic works are actually extremely rich and valuable resources! In the past year or two, the domestic picture copyright cooperative development industry has gradually become large-scale, and the newspaper has also received cooperation intentions from several companies. In order to create a new revenue growth point for the unit, I was entrusted by President Lu to convene everyone to discuss together!"
There is nothing wrong with these words, and Ma Fei is also very aware of this trend.
To put it simply, front-line reporters in the media take a lot of news photos every day. These images could only be used in physical newspapers and magazines, but with the rights development companies on these networks, they have the opportunity to create new value.
This type of cooperation is generally a model in which the media package and sell the rights of journalists' photographic works to companies, which then operate them in a unified manner and distribute them to websites, institutions or individuals who need to use the images.
Chai Peng explained the principle, and then said with a smile: "In other words, everyone here has a new opportunity to perform! Picture cooperation is paid according to volume, in order to generate more income for the unit, I hope you can mobilize front-line reporters to take more pictures and take good pictures." If the cooperation goes well, the newspaper can consider increasing the remuneration for journalists!"
Perhaps it was his pretended senior tone that touched the nerves of Dong Hua and others, and soon some people stood up against it.
"Assistant Chai, I have a doubt!" Dong Hua took the lead in making trouble, "News interviews and photographs, our newspaper has a special photography department, you can discuss this matter with them, why are you so excited?"
"That's it! Isn't it possible that text reporters also have to rush ducks to the shelves? They also have to record interviews, they have to think about the structure of the manuscript, and now they have to take pictures? Isn't this nonsense?"
"Yes, there is a specialization in the art industry, how good is the quality of the pictures taken by the writers? and they still expect to be able to sell them for money? Isn't this a joke?"
As soon as the topic began, it was opposed by a lot of people, and Chai Peng looked a little embarrassed.
Subconsciously glanced at Ma Fei, and he quickly looked away again.
Ma Fei's heart sank: What does this guy mean? Subconsciously seek support from me, an "accomplice"?
If he is really undercover, I want to help him speak now, wouldn't I expose him? Hehe, if it is for his good, not only can I not help him speak, but I still have to fall into the ground!
Thinking of this, he also joined the condemnation team, and said with a strange smile: "Aren't you afraid of messing around by letting text reporters steal photojournalists' jobs? Whose idea is it to do this? It's simply unheard of!"
Seeing that Ma Fei had begun to scare people, Dong Hua and the others looked at each other, and then burst into laughter, thinking: It seems that the Liang Zi of these two people is deep enough!
In the face of collective condemnation, Chai Peng looked a little helpless, and explained after a long sigh: "All of you here are senior media people, and you should be very clear about the current development trend of the media." With the rise of the Internet, the requirements for the comprehensive quality of our reporters are getting higher and higher! I believe that in the near future, the boundary between text reporters and photojournalists will eventually be broken, and what the media industry needs is actually the kind of comprehensive talents with one specialty and multiple abilities!
"Therefore, we hope that through the opportunity of this photo cooperation, we can cultivate everyone's comprehensive ability and guide everyone to develop their own potential, so as to ensure that they will not be eliminated by the industry and inject new momentum into the development of the newspaper!"
In fact, this explanation is clear to many people, and it is absolutely reasonable and convincing enough, but Dong Hua and others have made up their minds to take the opportunity to find fault and give him, a newcomer, a disadvantage, so how can they be easily convinced?
"Huh-" It was Dong Hua who took the lead in speaking, and after a contemptuous laugh, he crossed Erlang's legs and shook his head, "Assistant Chai, if I'm not mistaken, you were just the director of a department of the evening newspaper a few months ago." What has happened in the past few months that you have changed your body and actually talked about the development of the industry in front of us, and the comprehensive quality of reporters?"
"Hehe, Guan Gong plays with a big knife in front of him, who wouldn't play tricks!"
"But then again, in terms of ensuring that we are not eliminated, we really have to learn from others, and we are all mixed up in the distribution department, and we can climb to the sky and climb to you and me in one step, this ability is not ordinary!"
Seeing that everyone's words were getting more and more excessive, Ma Fei observed Chai Peng with interest to see how he would respond.
According to his past temperament, he should probably be furious and quarrel with these people, right? I wonder if he will have any surprises after the so-called psychological distortion?
Sure enough, Chai Peng at this time actually seemed quite calm.
As the saying goes, the thief captures the king first, and in the face of Dong Hua, who took the lead in stirring up trouble, he responded with a smile: "It seems that Director Dong has a deep prejudice against me! But it doesn't matter, about the doubts about my ability, I am confident that I will prove it to everyone with my actions." As for this order, of course, it wasn't decided by me, if you have any different ideas, you can find President Lu, or even Pang Dong to reflect. ”
As he spoke, he didn't forget to pout meaningfully: "Just talk to me here, I'm afraid it's difficult to solve everyone's dissatisfaction!"
said it lightly, but it directly moved the president and chairman out to block the gun. The implication is obvious: There are two big guys behind Lao Tzu, you have the ability to make trouble with them!
