Chapter 144: The Counterattack of the Unscrupulous Son (11)
"Something to Say" is a mediation program on the provincial TV station of S Province, specializing in mediating family issues.
Like what kind of husband and wife disputes, what father-son, mother-son discord, what mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts......
As long as it is an internal problem, the TV station will invite both parties to the program and then mediate by experts.
These experts are well-known figures in the province's cultural and legal circles specially hired by the TV station, such as radio hosts, writers, bloggers, and lawyers from law firms that have cooperative relations with the TV station.
Huaguo has always paid attention to "family ugliness should not be publicized", but sometimes, when there is a conflict in the family, and you don't want to really tear your face, or take legal channels, you will seek support from the outside world.
Both of them feel that they are reasonable, and the other party is making trouble unreasonably, but they can't argue with each other, so in a fit of anger, they simply go to the TV station to let the media and experts comment on one, two, three.
In line with the principle of persuading peace and not persuading people to leave, the media and experts also put 50 boards on each side, and finally came to a happy ending with a handshake and peace.
"Something to say" is about the parents, and both parties are locals in S Province and speak the local dialect, so they are very close to the lives of ordinary people.
The show is down-to-earth, and the audience likes to watch it.
The ratings of "Something to Say" in S Province are still very high, especially the middle-aged and elderly people at home and housewives like to watch it the most.
Anne never watched this kind of show, but she couldn't help her parents like it.
After a lively day, the guests who came to congratulate were sent away, and the family of three was tired but full of joy to finish the meal.
Pan's mother turned on the TV as usual, and the voice of "something to say" sounded on time.
β...... We Chinese people pay attention to strict fathers and mothers, saying that father's love is like a mountain, fathers may be stricter with their children, but fathers' love for their children is introverted and deep. Today's request for help from our program team is a father who loves his son deeplyββ"
On the TV screen, the beautiful, dignified and intellectual host first made an opening statement, and then invited the parties who needed to be mediated.
"Hey, isn't this my cousin, why did they get to the TV station?"
Pan's mother widened her eyes, and the chopsticks in her hand pointed at the middle-aged man on the screen.
In fact, in order to protect the privacy of the parties, the TV station provided masks.
But those who know them well can still recognize them by their voices, body shapes, and various habitual movements.
When Father Pan heard this, he also looked up, looked at it fixedly for a while, and nodded: "It is indeed my cousin." He, didn't he say that his son was smart, sensible and obedient, how could he still go to 'talk about something'?"
"Yes, when we went to the provincial capital a few days ago, he also said that his son did very well in school and was a class cadre. β
Pan's father and Pan's mother were full of confusion, they couldn't take care of eating, and they watched TV seriously.
Anne raised an eyebrow, this plot development is a bit interesting.
Pan Dakang was not exposed by the TV news, but Qi Kui and his son appeared on mediation programs.
β...... My son has been very obedient and smart since he was a child, and he never let my wife and I worry about reading or anything. During the college entrance examination, he was admitted to the computer science major of S University with excellent results. β
Qi Kui wore a mask, sat in front of the camera, and said very distressedly, "But after he went to college, he began to indulge in games, skipping classes, staying up late, and his grades plummeted." After the summer vacation this year, he told my wife and me that he was going to participate in an e-sports competition and that he was going to take a leave of absence!"
The experts are middle-aged men and women over the age of 40, and they are all already parents.
As a parent, when you hear that your child is addicted to games, few are happy.
E-sports competitions or something, they can't understand it, even these celebrities can't help but shake their heads.
After Qi Kui finished speaking, it was Qi Kui's son Qi Song's turn.
"Esports is a professional competition...... Nowadays, domestic e-sports are also becoming more and more formal, not only e-sports schools, but also e-sports stock clubs...... After a large-scale e-sports competition, the prize money is as high as hundreds of thousands. β
Qi Song wore a mask and talked eloquently to the camera, his eyes full of young people's confidence and flamboyance.
"I studied computer science in college, and after graduation, I had to start as a programmer, and I earned three to five thousand yuan a month. But what if you participate in e-sports competitions? You can earn a salary for several years, or even more than ten years, in one game. β
Qi Song didn't feel that he was wrong at all, but thought that his parents were old, their ideas were outdated, and they couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the times.
"Xiao Qi, what you said is the winner of the e-sports competition, then I want to ask you, how is your operation technique?
The interviewer was a male expert, who also played games when he was young, so he could understand Xiao Qi's mood.
But he has experienced the tempering of society, and he also feels that playing games can only be regarded as entertainment, and he can't support his family at all. And although professional esports can make money, it is too unstable.
Therefore, psychologically speaking, he does not agree with Qi Song.
But, as an expert in justice, he must be impartial.
"I did a good job, I was third on my team. We have also competed in a few small races, winning first prizes, second prizes, and top five prizes. β
Qi Song dared to suspend his studies, and he was not completely unconfident.
This year, he participated in e-sports competitions and made a lot of money.
It's a pity that my parents don't take these things seriously at all, and would rather let him be a bitter program ape than let him live happily.
"You also said that the scale is small, the e-sports competition is very cruel, and there are even more masters in the national and global competitions, can you guarantee that you will continue to get good results in such competitions?"
Other experts also cut in from this place to try to convince Qi Song.
"That's right, my wife and I just don't think it's reliable, so we don't allow him to take a break from school and don't let him be addicted to games. Either way, it's important to graduate from university first. β
"Dad, the golden age of full-time e-sports is only a few years, and you can study in college later, but if you miss the game, it will be difficult to catch up in the future!"
"If you miss it, you miss it, and it's not a serious game. β
"Who's to say it's not a serious competition, esports is professional all over the world, and esports may become an Olympic event in the future. β
"Then we'll wait until it's in the Olympics. β
"Oh, Dad, why are you unreasonable? I said it, the prime period of esports is only a few years, and if you miss the peak, even if I want to participate. β
"No, it's better. I'm telling you, your mother and I will never agreeβ"
The father and son continued the quarrel at home to the TV station, facing the camera, in front of the host and experts, the two quarreled red-faced.
Of course, this is a show, although it is "real people", but it also pays attention to the word "show".
Finally, under the persuasion of the host of the show and the mediation expert, Qi Kui and Qi Song, father and son, each took a step back-
Qi Kui no longer forced his son to give up e-sports, and Qi Song did not suspend school, and he had to take care of his studies while playing games.
Happy EndοΌ
The episode of "Something to Say" ended successfully.
Anne looked at Qi Kui and Qi Song, who were smiling reluctantly on the TV screen, and her heart moved and she had an idea.
"What? Dakang, you said you formed an alliance team?"
Qi Kui looked at Anne in disbelief, "You, you still want Xiao Song to join your team?"
Qi Song, who sat on the side and heard this, came to the spirit.
Xu is growing up in a different environment, and Qi Song was not close to Qi Kui's relatives in his hometown in the past.
It's not about "looking down", it's just that I don't have a common language with those people.
What he likes, those people don't understand at all;
And he hadn't heard of what those people said about the parents.
Qi Song and Pan Dakang have also only met a few times.
At that time, Pan Dakang was introverted and inferior, and when he saw Qi Song, who was tall and handsome and a famous college student, he felt that he was inferior to others everywhere, and he was unwilling to take the initiative to talk to Qi Song at all.
The words spoken by the two of them add up to no more than ten sentences.
Qi Song's impression of Pan Dakang is only retained in his original appearance: black, fat, dressed in dirty clothes, with his head down, twisted like a big girl!
In the past month or two, Qi Song has often heard Pan Dakang's name from his parents.
What Pan Dakang is self-taught, he actually learned computer programming.
What Pan Dakang designed a small program, and it was sold for 100,000 yuan at once.
What Pan Dakang opened a studio, specializing in program development.
What Pan Dakang cooperated with venture capital and absorbed 30 million in financing.
What the......
In the casual conversation of his parents, Qi Song learned that the rural boy with low self-esteem in the past has now turned into an outstanding young man and an upstart in science and technology!
is also a 20-year-old young man, Qi Song said that he did not envy Pan Dakang, that was fake.
But no matter how envious he is, Pan Dakang is just a stranger to him.
Qi Song never dreamed that he would have any intersection with Pan Dakang.
"That's right, uncle, I'm a gamer, and I'm also optimistic about professional esports. So, I formed the Panda Squad of Alliance Games on my own. β
Coincidentally, Qi Song is also playing an alliance game.
"In addition, my cousin is a computer major, so even if he doesn't play games in the future, he can still work in my game studio......"
