The workplace is like a game of chess, and everyone is a pawn in this game of chess. The soldiers crossed the river, the red horses and the black cannons, all of whom were strategizing in this game of chess.

Most of the time, the Bac Giang Evening News is still peaceful. At least in Chongming's view, there is a truth that cannot be broken - people's hearts move together, and it is difficult for people's hearts to move rice.

The incident in Luohe Village is just an episode, a note, in the daily rhythm of the newspaper's work. A song can't always have only one note, and if you skip it, there will be a more beautiful melody.

To the north, it was quickly restored to its original orbit. He's used to that rhythm too.

"Let's report this week's topic. ”

Every Monday morning, the editor-in-chief office of Bac Giang Evening News will hold a regular meeting on topic selection. The main content of the meeting was to ask each reporter to report on the plan for the week. Xiang Bei is the director of the political interview team, there are four reporters in the group, and the topics of all members are summarized by him and reported to Yu Chongming, Chen Lu and Qu Changguo.

"The key topic of our group this week is a father in Dongjin City. As we all know, in recent times, cracking down on abduction has been a hot topic on the Internet, and everyone hates the crime of abducting and trafficking children, and some netizens have even called for heavy punishments for this kind of crime. Of course, this is a bit extreme, but it can also be seen that everyone hates this kind of crime. ”

"That's right, the headline of a portal today is also news in this regard. Qu Changguo agreed, he is in charge of this week's topic planning, what is the quality of everyone's topic selection, whether it is worth doing, you must check it with him first, "This person in Dongjin City, what is the news point?"

"Everyone knows that a recently released movie, starring Hong Kong Tianwang, is about finding an abducted son. However, most people may not know that the prototype of the male number one in this movie is in Dongjin City, Bac Giang Province. ”

"Have you verified this? Are you sure it's this person?" Yu Chongming interjected. On the business side, he has always been demanding. This also proves the saying: no one's success is accidental, but anyone who can become a leader must have something extraordinary.

"No problem, leader. A young reporter behind Xiang Bei said suddenly.

Xiang Bei did not speak, waiting for the man to add. In moments like these, he prefers to give young people more opportunities to perform.

The young journalist's name is Zhang Zhiyao, and he joined the company two years ago. Like many post-90s generations, Zhang Zhiyao has a lively brain, a wide range of ideas, no stage fright, and a strong desire to perform. This topic is the clue that Zhang Zhiyao got from the interviewee when he went to Dongjin not long ago for an interview.

Although he has only been in the company for two years, Xiangbei clearly feels the momentum of this young man, not only in the business, but also in the workplace. What Xiang Bei admires the most is that this person can always get to the point when he speaks, show his efforts and excellence without leaving a trace, and will not make the leader feel disgusted, but will make his topic a key topic in the leader's mind between the words.

Today, Zhang Zhiyao and Luo Fangyi are both in their own departments, one is a newcomer and the other is an intern. However, Xiangbei always feels that Zhang Zhiyao's excellence is very different from Luo Fangyi's, Luo Fangyi is smart and simple and clear, while Zhang Zhiyao's intelligence is a little more sleek and impetuous - any interview is always a little bit of water, but he spares no effort in the marketing of the manuscript.

"Mr. Yu, I have talked to this person a few times, and his experience is basically the same as the experience of the male number one in this movie. In order to verify this, I also contacted the director of the film, and sure enough, the director made the film based on this person's experience......"

"When are you going to finish it?" Yu Chongming interrupted the young man's speech, he was more anxious to know the result than the expressive desire of the young man in front of him. Having been engaged in the media industry for so many years, Yu Chongming knows very well that timeliness is the life of the manuscript.

"Done next week. Zhang Zhiyao is also very simple.

Yu Chongming was silent.

"Zhiyao, your topic is very good, and it is suitable for hot spots. However, as you just said, netizens are very concerned about such incidents at the moment, and since it is a hot spot, we have to grab the hot spot, there is no doubt about it. So, you'll have to rush forward with this draft. Qu Changguo understands what Yu Chongming's silence means, and he appropriately interprets this silence, and takes the opportunity to affirm Zhang Zhiyao's journalistic sensitivity.

"That's it, we'll start this report as soon as we can," Xiang Bei saw this and hurried to the rescue, "Zhiyao, if you are not in a hurry about the other topics at hand, put them aside for a while, and focus on this manuscript." Also, do you need human support?"

Xiang Bei also took Zhang Zhiyao hand in hand for half a year, understood this young man's business ability, and also knew his problems. To reach the level of perfection, Zhang Zhiyao needs to experience a few more years.

"Listen to the leader's arrangement. Zhang Zhiyao's tone revealed disdain.

Yu Chongming obviously couldn't bear it anymore, and without waiting for Qu Changguo to speak, he used his privilege, "Xiangbei, you arrange this report, remember the deadline I gave you, you must give me the manuscript before this Friday." As for the vehicles, I'll arrange them. ”

After the meeting ended, Xiang Bei called Zhang Zhiyao and Luo Fangyi to his side.

"You also heard what President Yu said at the meeting, Zhiyao, you are very smart, and the importance of this report naturally needs not be said. I won't stress it anymore. I won't arrange for anyone else to partner with you anymore, this time I'll let Xiao Luo be your helper, and you can take her with you. ”

Who to arrange with Zhang Zhiyao to do the report of "orphaned", after repeated thinking and thinking about it, Luo Fangyi is undoubtedly the best candidate. First, Zhang Zhiyao is competitive and difficult to cooperate with others, and Luo Fangyi can just complement Zhang Zhiyao. Second, let an intern partner with Zhang Zhiyao, there is no worry about grabbing jobs, and it is beneficial to him in the assessment.

The next day, Zhang Zhiyao and Luo Fangyi got into the unit's vehicle and rushed towards Dongjin.

Xiangbei has been staying in the unit this week, but his heart is not steady.

On Tuesday, the two men who were on a business trip were not heard from. On Wednesday, there was still no news.

On Thursday morning, Xiang Bei was restless at the beginning, gradually became unable to hold his breath, and finally dialed Zhang Zhiyao's phone.

"Brother Xiang, is there something wrong?"

"How's the interview going?"

"I'm interviewing right now, and I'll give you a message after the interview. ”

It seems that this kid is quite down-to-earth, and the interview is serious enough.

Hang up the phone north and wait for his call back. However, the first and second waits, until noon, did not receive any news from the other party.

You can't do it like this anymore, after today, if there is still no progress, what can you do to explain to Yu Chongming and Qu Changguo? Since Zhang Zhiyao is not reliable, it is better to ask Luo Fangyi directly.

"Hey, Master. ”

"Why, what about the lunch break? Listening to your tone, you don't have energy. ”

"How can you still be in the mood for a lunch break, I'm sad to death. ”

"What's the situation, what's there to worry about?" Xiang Bei had a bad premonition.

"Master...... I don't know whether to say it or not. Luo Fangyi hesitated.

"What should not be said about interviews, as long as they are honest, and is there anything more important than telling the truth now?"

"The interview actually didn't go well. Brother Zhang...... I don't do anything when I get here. He gave me the topic and told me the direction of the interview, and he didn't care about anything, but I felt a little blind and didn't know where to start. ”

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xiang Bei's suppressed mood for a few days finally turned into anger.

"It's not that I don't want to say it, I'm afraid I'm doing it like I'm suing. I thought Brother Zhang was already confident, okay, it's already Thursday today, and the deadline is approaching, what should I do?" Luo Fangyi was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Things haven't come to this point yet," hearing the other party's depressed tone, Xiang Bei calmed down, "This Zhang Zhiyao, it's too unusual, I told him a thousand times before, if you encounter any problems during the interview, tell me as soon as possible." He's good that he doesn't reply to me. Well, I'll be over in the afternoon, and you'll wait there. ”

"But, if that's the case, will Brother Zhang think I'm making trouble?"

"Don't worry, I know what to say. ”

Putting down the phone, Xiang Bei was not in the mood to think about anything else, and in the closet was an emergency duffel bag for a business trip, which contained some toiletries and a few pieces of clothing. Xiang Bei slung his bag over his shoulder and hurried out the door.

Passing through the exit of the large plane, I glanced north at an empty seat. This is Lao Chen's location, close to the door, close to the corner, if it weren't for the deliberate look every time you pass by here, this place is almost deliberately ignored. Hey, this old Chen, just like the seat he is in, perhaps, he has never integrated into this office all these years.

Hedong is not far from Dongjin, and it only took two hours to take a long-distance bus. The business trip vehicle will be picked up from the bus station heading north and will go straight to the interviewee's home.

"Brother Xiang, why are you here?"

"Why am I here? You kid, you said to reply to me at noon, I waited until the flowers were also thanked, but I didn't wait for your call. I'm afraid something will happen to you, so I'm going to come and see you. "The workplace must pay attention to one point, speak and do things must be thoughtful, and cannot sell others, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Luo Fangyi, who was standing aside, had an embarrassed expression and was silent.

"Where's the draft? ”

"This ...... Fang Yi, what did you write?" Zhang Zhiyao threw the ball to Luo Fangyi.

"I'm ......" Luo Fangyi looked to the north and lowered his head.

"Alright, you two don't act for me. What the hell, you still want to surprise me? ”

As Xiang Bei expected, the interview material provided to him by the two was only half a page of word. It's not even a tofu block on the page, these two are writing a newsletter?

Thankfully, however, the interviewee was a man with a story: a dozen thick child-seeking diaries, child-seeking advertisements with photos of his son's childhood, and motorcycles with child-seeking flags. From Bac Giang Province all the way to the south, he has traveled almost half of China in more than ten years. Isn't this all touching material?

Xiangbei spent an afternoon interviewing, and worked overtime in the evening to catch up with the manuscript, as Lao Chen, who had just joined the company, said, "The manuscript does not stay overnight." The next morning, the first draft was written, and he spent another morning polishing it repeatedly, and the draft finally took shape.

"Xiao Luo, you remember one thing, a manuscript is written in seven points, if you write a manuscript of 3,000 words, you must have at least 10,000 words of material, otherwise, you will write a manuscript like a primary school student's essay, squeezing toothpaste, you write painfully, and the people who read it will also suffer. ”
