At 0:00 a.m. on July 1, 1997, hundreds of millions of people across China watched the whole process of the national flag being raised over the Xiangjiang River, and the People's Government of the People's Republic of China officially resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong. In the sound of the national anthem, all the guests invited to watch the ceremony on the viewing platform stood up collectively, Lin Miao stood in the phalanx of youth representatives, wearing a red scarf, and raised his right hand to salute until the five-star red flag rose at a uniform speed in the night wind and rose to the top of the flagpole.

At the moment when the music was playing, the audience applauded like thunder, and the British people left the stage with a lonely expression. The balance of the national fortunes of the two countries began to tilt from this moment. But the reconquest of the homeland is the end of one part of history, and the beginning of another end of history. There are still too many things to do, and the troubles that need to be solved seem to be endless. This year, the GDP of Xiangjiang is about one-fifth of that of the entire mainland, and the people's hearts are so fragile and powerless in the face of the huge economic disparity.

Anyone who stands on a high place has mixed feelings.

Only Lin Miao, who is not tall but has been looking through the past 20 years, is full of 100% confidence in the future.

After the ceremony, the next morning, Lin Miao was interviewed by a pro-British media in Xiangjiang. The compulsion of the broken media seems to be quite high, but in fact, the pattern is quite limited, and the question raised is nothing more than to use Lin Miao's mouth to let people know the gap between the mainland and Xiangjiang.

However, this group of coundrians has finally found the wrong target.

Lin Miao looked at the camera and generously said that Lao Tzu has several buildings in his house, and the area of the swimming pool at home is more than twice as large as your sand sculpture reporter's home, but as long as the country is in need, grandpa can donate two buildings at any time. Of course, Miao Ye was not so fierce in his wording at that time, and even replied quite politely, but unfortunately this report was not broadcast after all.

Lin Miao stayed in Xiangjiang for nearly a week, followed the people of the Kang Prefecture and the Ministry of Commerce, and ran around to attract investment, and the harvest was not big or small, but there was not much in the hands of Qujiang Province, let alone Dongou City.

What is more surprising to Lin Miao is that he also met several local stars by the way, all of whom are at the level of kings and queens according to later generations, and these illiterate people in the entertainment industry are quite interested in Lin Miao, who is running around wearing a red scarf all day long, but because of the accent, the communication is a little awkward. Then Miao Ye sent compassion and changed to communicate with them in English, but then he found that most of these celebrities who often pop up English words when they talk are actually quite poor in English, and only a few of them have worked hard, or have grown up in an English environment since childhood, and can finally talk to Lin Miao.

A week later, Miao Ye signed a film adaptation contract with Emperor Xiangjiang for "Looking for Immortals", and Piao Meiliang first recorded a copyright royalty of 2 million US dollars, and his ability to make money was so strong that the bigwigs of the Ministry of Commerce were surprised. A few days later, he confirmed with a film production company that "Bug Fly" was going to use the agreement in their next movie "Fengyun", which will be launched immediately, in fact, the copyright of "Bug Fly" had been sold in 95, and the company just wanted to get close to Miao Ye.

It only took seven days, and Lin Miao left a very deep impression on the people of Xiangjiang.

Whether it is the awesome learning and award-winning resume, the label of the author of "Seeking Immortals", the miraculous operation of cashing out 2 billion yuan in the stock market, and the aura of the prodigy covering these deeds, all of them surprise the people of Xiangjiang. In the wishful thinking imagination of the vast majority of Xiangjiang people, Lin Miao is like a master apprentice cultivated by a peerless master who lives in the deep mountains and old forests.

The day before her return, Lin Miao was invited by the University of Hong Kong Chinese to give her last interview at the school.

Lin Miao answered in English throughout the whole process, and once grabbed the host's microphone, and talked to the college students about the future international development trend, to the effect that the rise of China is an inevitable trend, and Xiangjiang, as a window for foreign trade, it is necessary to seize the opportunity of the upcoming changes in the world pattern, deepen cooperation with the mainland, seize the opportunity to engage in industrial transformation and industrial upgrading, and the new government of Xiangjiang has the obligation to guide Xiangjiang to move forward and develop in the right direction. The pro-British host turned black when he heard it, and he got off the stage and called Lin Miao arrogant.

In the end, Lin Miao left a sentence "The general trend of history is vast, and those who follow it prosper and those who go against it die", and left in the crusade of the elite scholars who cried for the British godfather in Xiangjiang.

On the way home by train, Lin Miao was simply rarified by the uncles and aunts who worked in various ministries and commissions in the capital, and they couldn't take turns to take Lin Miao into their arms and rub her until she was haired. Kang Zhifu is very flexible, and he took advantage of the situation to ask Dongou City from the ministry for two chemical projects that were originally intended to land in Neidou Province, so that Lin Miao was finally not rubbed in vain. Speaking of being rubbed, Lin Miao still misses the feeling of being rubbed around by the group of female stars in Xiangjiang, but she must not let Luo Li know......

On July 10, Lin Miao and Kang Zhifu ended their ten-day trip to Xiangjiang.

When I got off the train, the train station was crowded with people, all of whom came to greet Kang Zhifu.

Lin Miao has been raising soldiers for thousands of days, and Wang Bin's group of bodyguards finally came in handy.

Escorted by many soldiers, Lin Miao successfully squeezed out of the crowd and returned home. Huang Qingqing and the others accompanied Lin Miao for more than ten days, and their bodies were almost at the limit. Lin Miao generously gave all of them two days off and announced that they would leave for the capital the day after tomorrow.

Wang Bin and Huang Qingqing followed Lin Miao into the house, and when they went upstairs, they were still in a dream.

In the past 10 days, everything they have seen and experienced seems so unreal.

Those Hong Kong stars who can usually only be seen in the videotapes, all stood in front of them so really, speaking non-standard Mandarin, holding Lin Miao in their arms and touching them - only beautiful female stars can do this, male stars don't need to talk, and those leaders from the capital who can scare people to death by listening to official positions are so approachable when they speak, and they don't take a stand at all in private. It turns out that celebrities are also human beings, and they also pay attention to eating, drinking, and sleeping, and they can also say things that ordinary people usually say......

And Lin Miao was so easy to get along with those people.

"Go up and rest, for I will call you when I have something." Lin Miao walked to the third floor and walked straight towards his office.

Huang Qingqing and Wang Bin hummed, watched Lin Miao turn into the office, and then turned around and went upstairs.

"Mr. Lin is too awesome......" Wang Bin is like a believer who has returned from a pilgrimage to the Holy City, his body and soul have been washed out, and he has a strong urge in his heart, and he wants to kneel for Lin Miao.

Huang Qingqing also kept buzzing in his head, and hummed softly.

For this little boss, she is now so convinced that she doesn't want to spit out any more grooves.

In the past, I always felt that Lin Miao's ability to brag was greater than the ability itself, but now it seems that Lin Miao's mouth cannon is indeed based on strong strength. Then this is not bragging, at most it can only be called "rhetorically strong objective self-expression".

Lin Miao was actually half tired to death, but he still insisted on quickly trying to find out what changes had happened to the direction of public opinion in the mainland during the time he was making wind and rain in Xiangjiang.

Pushing open the door of the office on the third floor, Lin Wanru, who was staying at home, immediately stood up and smiled in surprise: "Mr. Lin, are you back?"

"Hmm. Lin Miaojiao took a step, walked to the boss's chair and sat down, and exhaled a long breath, "Pour me a glass of milk." ”

"Good. Lin Wan walked out of the house neatly.

After a while, a cup of hot milk was brought to Lin Miao.

Lin Miao, who closed her eyes and recuperated, opened her eyes and asked lightly, "Has anyone scolded me recently?"

Lin Wanru said with a smile: "No one scolded you in the first few days when you went to Xiangjiang, but these days it has started to show some signs again." ”

As she spoke, she flipped through the newspaper on the table for Lin Miao, and said with a smile: "On the front page of Dongou Daily on July 1, the headlines on the front page of "Dongou Daily" were all the news that you and Secretary Kang went to Xiangjiang, and the city's TV station also reported it. "Yangcheng Nanfang Daily" published a comment on the 4th suggesting the development of quality education, and "Mass Daily" responded to it on the 5th. ”

"Huh?" Lin Miao was slightly stunned, "What's wrong with the Mass Daily?"

Lin Wanru said: "The basic meaning is to support and encourage, saying that it is necessary to conform to the development of the times and be in line with international standards." ”

Lin Miao shook her head and sighed: "A group of stupid hat ......"

Lin Wanru said again: "The day before yesterday, Yuan Han said bad things about you again in the "Shanghai Morning Post", and this morning, there was an article in the "Yangcheng South Daily" that took out the matter of you borrowing 200 million yuan from the bank last year, saying that you are a stumbling block to China's construction of a legal society. ”

"I'm grass, this hat is beautifully buttoned. Lin Miao said with a smile, "Xiaowan, you can find me a great legal counsel today, and you must use practical actions to let the "Yangcheng Southern Daily" know what it means to govern the country according to law, and I don't believe Lin if you can't sue it." ”

Lin Wanru smiled and said, "Okay, I'll find it right away." ”

Lin Miao nodded and continued: "Yuanhan doesn't need to pay attention anymore, it doesn't make sense, what I asked you to write, did you write it?"

Lin Wanru said: "It's written and put it in the cabinet on the left." ”

Lin Miao reached out and pulled out the cabinet, took out the manuscript and looked at it a few times.

Lin Wanru had a bit of expectation on her face.

Lin Miao didn't say anything, and said lightly: "Okay, it's okay for the time being, you can get off work today." ”

Lin Wanru showed slight disappointment, picked up her bag and said goodbye to Lin Miao, and turned around and walked out of the room with gentle steps.

As soon as the door closed, Lin Miao scratched her head, crumpled what Lin Wanru had written, and threw it into the paper basket.

It wasn't until today that he realized that there was a reason why the leaders of the past were occasionally dissatisfied with what he had written.

Writing is not writing, or secondary, the main thing is that you have to wait until the boss wants to say something.

If this thing was written by Huang Qingqing, Lin Miao would definitely let Huang Qingqing overturn it and start over. But his relationship with Lin Wanru is not to the point where he can criticize her casually, and he doesn't want to embarrass the beautiful little girl, so it is more efficient to simply write it himself.

Turning on the computer, Lin Miao typed for about 40 minutes, with a heavy heart, and solemnly condemned his nonsense, and after writing, he sent it directly to the mailbox of the editor-in-chief of Dongou Daily, and then the next morning, the newspaper published a signed article by Lin Miao entitled "Apologies to the Parents of Dongou City".

"The original purpose of the "Red Seedlings" essay contest was to provide a platform and opportunity for many primary and secondary school students with writing talents in our city to show their talents, but due to the lack of rigor in the design of the process and rules, it eventually caused irreversible damage to a small number of candidates who participated in the high school entrance examination that year.

The "Red Seedlings" essay contest is linked to the admission quota of the high school entrance examination, which seriously damages the interests of the city's candidates, and makes many students who should have been admitted to better schools lose the better teaching environment and educational resources that originally belonged to them. As the chief captain of the Young Pioneers Corps of the Dongou Municipal Youth League Committee and the editor-in-chief of the weekly "Red Miao", I cannot escape the blame.

Here, I would like to express my deepest remorse and apologies to the vast number of candidates and parents of candidates in our city. I am sorry for all the approximately 5,000 candidates who were squeezed into the second-class secondary school in June 1996 and June 1997 because they were squeezed out of the "Red Seedlings" essay contest. I do not ask for your forgiveness, but I can only use my modest strength to compensate you as much as possible.

In the future, all students who participated in the 96th and 97th high school entrance examinations in Dongou City (except those who were admitted to Dongou Middle School) will join the enterprises under their names (Dongou Jianghai Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., Dongou Tianyuan Cultural and Creative Investment Co., Ltd., Dongou Little Cute Technology Development Co., Ltd.) after graduating from university, all of them can skip the probation period, and the basic salary starts according to the treatment of our level 2 employees.

It's not too late to make amends. I hope "Red Sprout" It is also hoped that all the students who participated in the 96 and 97 Dongou City high school entrance examinations, especially those who suffered from injustice, can come out of the shadow of injustice, use their own efforts to break through the haze of injustice, and achieve good results in the college entrance examination; it is hoped that the relevant departments of Dongou City can draw lessons from the erroneous experience of the Young Pioneers Corps, standardize the examination system, and prevent thousands of candidates who are struggling for their own lives from sweating and shedding tears.

We also ask all institutions and units that engage in the practice of 'encroaching on public resources' in the name of 'quality recruitment' to return to shore as soon as possible. Don't be like me, and almost become a sinner in a city, or even an entire nation and nation. ”

In view of the fact that the circulation of "Dongou Daily" has broken through the sky, after this report was sent out on this day, most of the people in the country were confused, and at the same time, many parents of children in Dongou City who were concerned with their own interests and participated in the 96 and 97 high school entrance examinations gradually turned from being at a loss to waking up-

"Are we being taken advantage of?"

"Nonsense! There are so many places in Dongou Middle School, and those who win awards for writing essays and enter through the back door just happened to rob other people's places?"

"Holy shit! I said my son couldn't get in with a score of 699!"

"My daughter didn't score 700.5 points!"

Dongou City was in an uproar.

In an office in Shanghai, the main members of the organizing committee of "New Thinking" quickly gathered together.

Not only did everyone's face look ugly, but some people were also covered in cold sweat.

They looked at each other with stupid eyes, and that was roughly the same thing in their eyes-

Who told you to mess with Lin Miao?!

What should I do!What should I do!?
