Chapter 57: Do You Dare to Accept the Challenge?
Wu Mian walked outside, lit a cigarette at the top of the stairs, and took two puffs.
He had a strong urge to call and question Duan Yu, but reason told him that the result of doing so would inevitably be self-inflicted, not only could not solve the immediate difficulties, but also gave Duan Yu a chance to ridicule himself.
So, do you want to call and complain to Asayu?
As soon as this idea arose, it was quickly rejected by Wu Mian. First, Qianrou originally asked him to take over as the interview director next Monday, with the intention of asking him to do a good job of handover with Duan Yu in the past few days to achieve a "smooth transition". It was because he himself was too ambitious and couldn't wait to take office that he would be calculated by Duan Yu.
Although the complaint will make Duan Yu be blamed by Qianrou, Wu Mian himself will also lose points, which will inevitably leave her with the impression of being reckless and in a hurry, which is not the best policy.
Second, Qianrou was very drunk last night. During the pause of this morning's press conference, and before coming to the newspaper office in the afternoon, Wu Mian sent two text messages to Qianrou, expressing concern for her and asking her if she had a headache after waking up, but she did not receive a reply. It seems that Qianrou is probably still in bed and still unawake, and he doesn't want to disturb her.
Hmph, Director Cream, do you think you can stump me with these tricks? You underestimate me too much...... Lao Tzu just came to plan and push the boat down the river, and completely isolate you in the newspaper!
Wu Mian sneered, exhaled thick smoke, quickly had an idea in his heart, stepped on the cigarette butt and returned to the office.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Shen Yihui standing in front of the desk, holding a large cardboard box in her hand, as if she was thinking about something in a daze.
"Xiao Shen, I'm back!" Wu Mian said hello, "I was about to call you." ”
Shen Yihui turned her head and just called out "Teacher Wu" when her voice choked.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Wu Mian immediately noticed that the little beauty's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she had just cried, and hurriedly asked, "Has anyone bullied you again?"
Shen Yihui shook her head and held back her tears: "I...... I have to go. Director Duan ...... me If you are not satisfied, you will tell me to pack up my things and leave immediately, and I will not have to intern in the future!"
Damn, this guy just wants to get paid from the bottom of the kettle, and even the last intern reporter has to be driven away, so as not to leave any helpers for himself.
Wu Mian snorted: "When did he tell you to leave?"
"At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, I was holding a press conference at the price bureau, and Director Duan suddenly called me and counted me down, saying that I had not made any progress after practicing for so long...... Then he ordered me to leave. Shen Yihui's delicate little face was full of grievances.
"Don't listen to him fart!" Wu Mian couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, "Xiao Shen, you can continue to stay here and work, you can stay as long as you want!"
He paused, slowed down his tone and said to Shen Yihui, who was confused, "You don't know yet, do you? I can call the shots on this matter, I want you to stay!"
"Really?" Shen Yihui was first surprised, and then a little skeptical.
Wu Mian took out the appointment document that Qianrou gave him, as well as the early succession statement signed with Duan Yu just now, and handed it to her.
Shen Yihui burst into tears and laughed after reading it, and congratulated him on his promotion, but still said with some worry that Duan Yu was also promoted to vice president, although he will no longer be responsible for news gathering and editing in the future, but after all, the position is above Wu Mian.
"He drove me away, but you left me behind...... It's against him, I'm afraid of him...... I'm going to make trouble for you!" Shen Yihui said with a worried face.
Wu Mian once again felt the kindness of this little beauty who did not forget to consider others even if she was in trouble. He said proudly: "I'm not afraid! I not only want you to stay, but also turn you into a regular worker! Wait a minute, I'll tell Mr. Yuan, from today onwards, you will be a full-fledged reporter! The basic salary will be doubled, and the remuneration for writers will also be calculated according to the highest standard. ”
Shen Yihui almost didn't believe her ears, and her little face flushed with excitement: "Teacher Wu, you...... You're not trying to make me happy, are you? I'm not qualified to become a regular, I haven't made any achievements after half a year of internship......."
"Absolutely qualified!" Wu Mian said seriously, "You are very spiritual, you can understand a little, and you are very dedicated, hard-working." In the past, it was because Duan Yu didn't trust you and didn't dare to entrust you with important tasks, which led to your talent not being brought into play. Today, I want to give you a chance to perform well and prove your strength!"
He paused, stared at the little beauty and asked in a deep voice, "Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
Shen Yihui nodded vigorously and held her breath, with a cute expression of nervousness and eagerness.
"Okay, I'll assign you a task now. Tomorrow, you will be in charge of the second page of the newspaper, and you will use the press conference of the Price Bureau that you attended to the headline, and you can make it as big as possible, and at least half of the page will be handed over to me!"
"Ah, but I was called away by Director Duan at the time, and I only listened to the press conference for about ten minutes, and I don't know what was said later. The substance of the press release is also very small, and I can't write half a page. ”
"What is said in the back must be nonsense, so don't listen to it. Wu Mian pointed to the little beauty in a very skillful veteran tone, "You just wrote this news from another angle." The price bureau released the latest price index this time, I don't need to read it to know, the official inflation data must be very low, but the people feel that the price is very expensive. You can make a comparison and use the data to do the talking!"
"How do you compare?"
"I remember you told me that your mother kept a bill every day when she bought groceries. You go to the market now, write down the prices of a dozen or so vegetables, meat, and eggs, compare them with the prices your mother bought a year ago, calculate the increase, and then compare them with the official data to see how big the gap is......!
"Understood. I can also interview a few citizens and ask them how they really feel, which will be more convincing. Shen Yihui said with her eyes shining.
Wu Mian agreed: "In the past, this kind of news was copied from official data, which was boring and boring, and readers didn't like to read it. From now on, I want to make a big reform, use living examples as the main body, and make boring data come alive. ”
He said and looked at the time, and said regretfully: "This way of collecting and writing news is completely different from before, I should have personally taken you once and taught you how to deal with the details." But today time is pressing, and I have other important things to do, so I can only let you explore it yourself! Xiao Shen, the first reform after I took office will be handed over to you to implement. I'm sure you'll be able to do it!"
"Teacher Wu, you trust me so much, I swear...... I will never let you down!" Shen Yihui was moved to tears, bent down and bowed, and then quickly packed up the camera notebook and stuffed it into her bag, and rushed out of the office full of excitement.
Wu Mian looked secretly amused, and was very satisfied with his handling methods.
This little beauty is the only person he can use now, of course, he wants to make the best use of it as much as possible, and try to give full play to her full potential, so he decisively promised a promotion and a salary increase, and then put on a trust posture of "entrusting important tasks", which really made her glow with strong positive energy, and transformed into a strong work motivation.
Looking at this situation, at least half of the content has already been settled. plus I have just finished writing Chai Qing's report, and there is almost half a page. Although Duan Yu's bastard left it alone, he was still in charge of the supplement, thinking that he had already prepared the manuscript, and it would naturally be sent when the time came. In this way, as long as you put together two more versions of the content, you can complete the task.
These thoughts were only in a flash, and before he had time to think carefully, he suddenly heard Shen Yihui's movement outside.
The little beauty had just left the office not far before the footsteps stopped, and then her crisp greeting sounded: "Mr. Yuan, hello." ”
"Xiao Shen, are you going out for an interview?" another soft and beautiful voice came, a shallow and soft voice.
Wu Mian was overjoyed, stood up and walked out of the office, and saw Qianrou standing in the corridor talking to Shen Yihui.
"Yes, Mr. Wu just assigned me a task...... Ah, the elevator arrived, I'll go first. Bye. Shen Yihui waved her hand and flew into the elevator like a bird.
Qianrou also waved her hand, and after watching the elevator door close, she turned around and met Wu Mian with her eyes.
"Sister!" Wu Mian called out half-jokingly, "It's okay for me to call it that, right?"
For a moment, the beautiful young woman's cheeks seemed to be slightly red, but she immediately returned to her natural nature, and said lightly: "Non-working hours, whatever you want to call it." However, in the workplace, it is better to use a formal name. ”
Wow......! It's so rusty!
Wu Mian didn't expect to hit a nail, and said, "Oh, okay." ”
Light Rou nodded and walked towards the president's office. Wu Mian subconsciously let go, and when she walked by, he looked carefully and found that this beautiful young woman's face was a little pale, looking weaker than usual, but there was a strange majesty between her eyebrows.
"Mr. Yuan, you were drunk last night, do you feel better now?" Wu Mian asked with concern as he followed.
"It's much better!" said Qianrou as she walked, "Thanks to you for helping me out of the siege, you sent me home in the middle of the night, thank you!"
Although she is thanking her, she seems polite and distant, which is definitely not the attitude that a "sister" should have.
Wu Mian was a little confused, looking at her graceful back and stunned. The sound of crisp high heels on the ground, the plump round buttocks naturally cocked, and twisted gently with the pace, as seductive as when he first met her.
Thinking of the feeling she had experienced last night when she was hungover, Wu Mian couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and she was a little ready to move...... But in the next second, he suddenly remembered something, and his heart beat wildly.
Oh my God, could it be...... Although she was drunk at the time, she still vaguely realized that I was drunk and took advantage of her, and today she woke up and recalled everything, so she despised me?
Wu Mian broke out in a cold sweat all over his body. If this is the case, it must be remediated quickly, otherwise the negative impact of this move will never be reversed.
However, looking at Qianrou's demeanor, words and deeds just now, it doesn't seem to be very disdainful...... Could it be that she's just suspicious, and can't be 100% sure?...... If that's the case, it's easy to do!
Wu Mian had already come up with a countermeasure in a few seconds, and while sorting out his thoughts, he quickly caught up.
