Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Imaginary Enemy (1)
The next morning, Guo Yang went to work at the newspaper, and as soon as he entered the office building, he saw a notice posted on the notice board of the "Northern Morning Post on the implementation of the chief reporter (editor) system." Many people gathered around to watch and discuss, this is a new thing, but it is no stranger to Guo Yang.
The so-called chief reporter (editor) is, to put it bluntly, an incentive mechanism, and a professional promotion channel that is different from the promotion of administrative positions. Generally speaking, reporters or editors with strong professional ability, if they are unable to solve their administrative duties, can go through this channel, as long as they are rated as chief reporters, they can enjoy the same salary and benefits as middle-level cadres of newspapers during the employment period.
He only glanced at it, then walked upstairs, Lin Meimei chased after him from behind, pulled his arm, and said in a mysterious and mysterious voice: "Guo Yang, see it, Lao Zhao has started to burn three fires before he takes office, and the chief reporter is the first fire, I heard that there are six people on the list of the first batch of editorial boards, and this time the evaluation is set for four places, two reporters and editors, and two people will be reviewed by the difference." ”
In fact, there is no need for Lin Meimei to say it, Guo Yang is also familiar with this. No one knows better than him about the chief reporter's mode of operation, evaluation and competition.
Guo Yang smiled bitterly: "Lin Meimei, where did you get all this messy gossip from?"
Lin Meimei pursed her lips: "This girl has her own news channel, believe it or not." You are on the list, in addition to you, there are also Zhou Zheng of the Theory Department and Li Shuguang of the editorial office, the first three of you to participate in the competition as chief reporters. ”
Guo Yang sighed indifferently and continued to walk upstairs.
Lin Meimei was a little anxious: "I said that you don't have a heart and no liver? It is related to personal progress, why don't you care at all?"
Guo Yang shrugged: "It's not something that my little reporter can decide, I don't have a fart in my heart." Moreover, Zhou Zheng is a senior journalist, Li Shuguang is next to the leader, and he is also a relationship with a strong background, how can I compete with others? Isn't this obvious?
Lin Meimei was stunned, she suddenly felt that Guo Yang was reasonable, since it was a foil, it didn't matter.
Guo Yang looked at Lin Meimei a little helplessly, since Lin Meimei has gotten the news, it can only mean that this news is already an open secret. It's no wonder that the editors just now looked at him with deep meaning, and they all knew that he was going to accompany the prince to study.
Guo Yang knows that the seat of this first batch of chief reporters has nothing to do with him, no matter how strong his business ability is, he is also a newcomer who has just debuted, and in the media industry, which is extremely particular about seniority, at least it is difficult for him to succeed in the competition.
So Guo Yang is not interested in this, he has too many things to do now, there is no need to waste time and energy in this area and make useless attempts. Moreover, the chief reporter is nothing more than a false name, and what everyone values is the income that can be compared with the middle-level, and the newspaper's salary is completely negligible for Guo Yang.
But Guo Yang overlooked the most interesting point. Even if it's a foil, it's a potential threat. Although he is a newcomer, he has a good reputation within the newspaper for his strong business ability, and he is deeply appreciated by Zhao Guoqing, from this point of view, the other two candidates, Zhou Zheng and Li Shuguang, both have a certain vigilance and precautions against Guo Yang.
Zhou Zheng is an old man, a senior commentator of the morning newspaper, and his business ability is also very strong. He is about the same age as Zhang, and there is no hope of promotion to the administrative position, so he can only change his fate through the chief reporter, and he can imagine the importance he attaches to this chief reporter competition.
As for Li Shuguang, he is the nephew of the deputy director in charge of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee. With Vice Minister Li in office, it is estimated that the newspaper will have to give some face.
However, Li Shuguang had a fatal flaw, his writing level was poor, and he had not come up with a few decent manuscripts over the years, and it was precisely because of his weak professional ability that he was transferred to the editorial office to do administrative work. Then, if he wants to run for the title of chief reporter, he can't avoid the problem of not being able to convince the public.
Li Shuguang knows that on the one hand, he is full of confidence in the background, and on the other hand, he is full of high sensitivity, and he is vigilant about Guo Yang, who is included in the list, because of his sensitivity, Guo Yang has become his imaginary enemy.
Li Shuguang was looking forward and thinking left and right in the office, and Zhao Guoqing's phone called: "Xiao Li, inform Guo Yang in the editor, come to my office!"
After speaking, Zhao Guoqing hung up the phone.
Li Shuguang's brows furrowed: What did Mr. Zhao suddenly do with Guo Yang, a reporter? It's a bit inexplicable! Could it be ...... Thinking of Zhao Guoqing's appreciation of Guo Yang, his face suddenly became extremely dignified and nervous.
It is said that this kind of thing is just a phone call by Li Shuguang to inform Guo Yang, but he slowly walked to the door of the office of the Ministry of Information of China, pushed open the door, and shouted at Guo Yang, who was writing at the desk inside: "Xiao Guo, you come out!"
Guo Yang was stunned, he had never had anything to do with Li Shuguang, what was he looking for?
Guo Yang got up and walked over, Li Shuguang looked at him with a solemn expression, and his voice was slightly cold: "Mr. Zhao asked me to inform you to go to his office." However, the leader is very busy, you have to control the time yourself, don't delay the leader's business, do you know?"
In Guo Yang's ears, Li Shuguang's attitude was clearly a bit inexplicably eccentric, deliberately putting on the faces of his superiors teaching his subordinates and the old-timers to the newcomers, which seemed too funny.
"Oh, Mr. Zhao is looking for me? Okay, I'll go over now. The corner of Guo Yang's eyes swept over Li Shuguang's gloomy face and strode towards Zhao Guoqing's office.
Li Shuguang deliberately took Guo Yang to the door of Zhao Guoqing's office, and accidentally found that Zhang Yuqiang, the deputy editor-in-chief who is now ranked second, was also among them, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and became even more uneasy and anxious.
Guo Yang calmed down, knocked on the door and walked in, to Li Shuguang's secret dissatisfaction, he actually closed the door of Zhao Guoqing's office at the same time as he entered the door.
"Mr. Zhao, are you looking for me?ah, Mr. Zhang, you are also there!" Guo Yang took the initiative to say hello with a respectful and moderate smile.
Zhao Guoqing smiled and waved his hand: "Come, Xiao Guo, sit down and talk." ”
Guo Yang was not hypocritical, sitting on the chair opposite Zhao Guoqing's wide boss's table, but he owed half of his buttocks, and sat upright, still with due respect and a certain deliberate awe on his face. This is the attitude that subordinates should have towards leaders.
He has been pondering what Zhao Guoqing and Zhang Yuqiang came forward to talk to him for, on the surface, it seems to be a little unusual.
Zhao Guoqing smiled: "It's not a big deal to come to you, it's just me and Lao Zhang asking you for a favor." ”
Guo Yang was stunned.
"That's the case, Mr. Zhao and I recently discussed to create a cultural weekly, different from the supplement of our newspaper, with an independent issue number, as a supplement to the newspaper, once a week, Friday and the newspaper together, mainly to spread traditional culture, the city and provincial propaganda have been approved, and the issue number is about to be obtained, we want to find Master Feng Yuanliang to inscribe the title of the journal, and ask Feng Lao to be our consultant...... "Zhang Yuqiang interjected with a smile: "I heard that you are Feng Lao's closed disciple, and you are deeply valued by the old man, so I will leave this matter to you!"
Guo Yang suddenly realized.
Zhao Guoqing and Zhang Yuqiang want to establish a cultural weekly, to enhance the influence of the Northern Morning Post is only a superficial factor, the real purpose should be to increase advertising revenue, this kind of weekly can jump out of the shackles of news newspapers, publish a large number of advertisements, attract many sponsors, is an important channel for paper media to make profits under the conditions of market economy.
Guo Yang hurriedly responded with a smile, but to be honest, considering Old Man Feng's eccentric temperament and almost paranoid attitude against cultural industrialization or marketization, he was not sure whether the old man could agree.
