Wu Mian's department is the "Current Affairs News Department", which is responsible for the most important political news pages, and the director of the department is an old man named Guan Daliao.

In Wu Mian's view, this person is a straw bag with no level at all, and his daily work is to pile up suffocating "meeting news" and sycophant manuscripts for the leader's shoes on the page, which is a typical "layman leading insider". When everyone talked about this director Guan Daliao in private, they omitted one word from his name and called him "director bureaucrat".

Although Wu Mian has been angry at his work, in all fairness, the bureaucratic director is not bad for Wu Mian, and he took the initiative to talk to Wu Mian a few days ago, praising him for his hardships and hard work, never making mistakes in writing, and preparing to promote him to become a senior reporter. Who knew that the words were still in my ears, and I had such a big disaster today. Wu Mian wanted to cry in frustration, it seems that the title of senior reporter is going to be lost.

Entering the department's office, the clock on the wall showed that it was now 10:50. Most of the reporters have not returned from interviews, and the editors are leisurely, some drinking tea, some smoking, some reading newspapers, and some playing poker on the computer.

Seeing Wu Mian come in, everyone stared at him in unison, and watched him walk to the place where the bureaucratic director was sitting without blinking, and some even showed expressions of waiting to see a good show, just like a spectator watching a prisoner go to the execution ground.

Anya's eyes were quite concerned, but when Wu Mian looked at her, she avoided her gaze and lowered her head and pretended to be fiddling with her phone.

Wu Mian suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, slowed down, and continued to look at Anya out of the corner of his eye.

This beautiful editor's face is a little pale, her eye circles are slightly puffy, and she doesn't seem to be sleeping well, but she is dressed as beautifully as ever, with a refreshing ponytail, a light-colored floral slip dress and a small gray coat, which looks casual and energetic.

She also seemed to notice that Wu Mian was peeking at her, and somehow her breathing was a little rapid, and her chest was obviously heaving. Well, although the scale is not as majestic as the young woman last night, it is also quite weighty......

Lose, you kid has something wrong! When did you still have the heart to judge your character! Wu Mian secretly scolded himself in his heart, hurriedly collected his mind and looked away, and walked to Guan Daliao's side. The latter was answering the phone.

"Yes, yes...... I will convene a department-wide meeting tonight to conscientiously sum up the lessons learned...... Okay, okay, understood!" After the bureaucratic director nodded and said the last few words, he put down the microphone and turned his head to stare at Wu Mian fiercely, his face full of clouds.

"Director Guan, I heard about my manuscript...... Something went wrong?" Wu Mian asked cautiously.

"What's wrong, you're simply stabbing me in the big basket!" Guan Daliao scolded with a slap on his face, "Xu Jiancheng's speech, can't you even copy it? You actually copied three wrong places, and they are all outrageous mistakes!"

"Three places? Wu Mian muttered in disbelief.

"Still hard-mouthed, see for yourself!" Guan Daliao was furious, and threw a copy of today's "Zhuzhou Daily" and a fax document to Wu Mian.

The document was faxed by the Zhuzhou Municipal Development and Reform Commission, and it was the original text of Xu Jiancheng's speech. Guan Daliao had apparently made a comparison, using a red pencil to circle three places in the newspaper and in the original text.

The first is Xu Jiancheng's introduction of a high-tech project that will soon settle in the Zhuzhou Science and Technology Park, the original text is an investment of 1 billion yuan, but the newspaper is printed with 10 billion yuan, that is, there is an extra "zero".

The second is to introduce the plan for the second phase of the science and technology park, the original text is about 230,000 square meters, but the newspaper prints 23,000 square meters, that is, there is an extra decimal point.

The third is to introduce the government's encouragement to vigorously develop six major industries in the science and technology park, the original text is "electronic technology, information network, precision high-tech, biomedicine, innovative finance and photovoltaic industry", but the last item printed in the newspaper has become "...... and real estate".

Wu Mian was dumbfounded.

These three mistakes were indeed very low-level and outrageous, and the problem was that he remembered that after he had copied the speech last night, he had obviously checked it from beginning to end. This is the habit of every time he deals with the draft of an official's speech.

Of course, because he was really tired last night, Wu Mian checked it more hastily, and he didn't want to check it word by word with a magnifying glass as usual, but he didn't miss three places in a row. Could it be that the soul was out of the shell at that time? He struggled to recall the details of the previous night's typing and checking, trying to find a reason to "convince his dead heart".

Guan Daliao saw that Wu Mian was stunned and didn't speak, and thought that he was bowing his head and confessing his guilt and reflecting painfully, so he simply opened his voice and continued to scold Wu Mian angrily.

From his words, Wu Mian finally knew how big the disaster was. Although the words of the bureaucratic director were unpleasant, they were not deliberately exaggerated, and the first two mistakes were just enough, and the third caused great trouble.

When Xu Weimin, the mayor of Zhuzhou City, attended an event this morning, an overseas media reporter asked him a question, questioning that the real purpose of the construction of the science and technology park is not to develop science and technology, but to take the opportunity to engage in real estate. Mayor Xu resolutely denied it, claiming that he "would never engage in real estate in the park," but the other party picked up the "Zhuzhou Daily" and said that it was written in black and white in the official newspaper.

What's more serious is that netizens frantically reprinted the news within an hour, and the focus of their concern was not whether the science and technology park was engaged in real estate, but ridiculed that the mayor himself was not interested in reading the official articles of the official media, otherwise there would be no such ugliness.

After hearing these words, the colleagues in the office expressed their deep condolences to Wu Mian with their eyes. The most optimistic of them estimated that Wu Mian's title as a senior journalist and this month's bonus would be a heroic death, but that he himself would be able to stay here for a long time, while the most pessimistic people believed that the lad would soon have a famous dish made with squid, which would be prepared by the chief bureaucratic himself.

"Director Guan, I have finished the manuscript, please take a look at it. A young reporter named An Gang walked over and respectfully placed a few printed sheets of A4 paper on Guan Daliao's desk.

He is Anya's elder brother, who entered the newspaper two years earlier than Wu Mian and Anya, and his qualifications are relatively mediocre, and he belongs to the kind of person who can only write "conference news". The method is extremely simple: as long as the government's work report is slightly revised and the words "proposed by the meeting", "expressed by the meeting", "emphasized by the meeting" and "requested by the meeting" are added in front of each paragraph, a so-called news report can be easily released.

Usually in the newspaper, An Gang has a good relationship with Wu Mian, and he was also enthusiastic to help Wu Mian pursue Anya, but unfortunately it didn't work.

Guan Daliao picked up the manuscript and skimmed through it, nodding with satisfaction. Wu Mian glanced sideways and saw that the title of the manuscript was "The development of six major industries together, and there are many business opportunities in the science and technology park". Obviously, this is a propaganda draft for post-mortem repairs, hoping to dispel doubts from all walks of life and rebuild the reputation of the science and technology park.

"Not bad...... These words have been changed slightly. Guan Daliao made several completely unnecessary changes in red pencil to show his authority as the head of the department.

"Well, your change is smoother and your intention is better. Angang sent a high hat with interest.

Guan Daliao happily accepted, and then turned his head and continued to reprimand Wu Mian: "Today, thanks to Xiao An, I helped you write an 'apology statement' and publish it on the newspaper's website for the first time, and now I have helped you write a special issue that is ready to be urgently printed." Fuck, you've gotten into such a mess and you want someone to wipe your ass for you!"

An Gang made a humble statement: "It's not hard work, I'm also doing it." ”

"Thank you for helping me wipe ...... Oh no, thank you!" Wu Mian almost made a joke, but fortunately swallowed it back in time, and turned his head to ask Guan Daliao, "Director Guan, you just said that Xiao An helped me write an 'apology statement'?"

"Yes, we are the official media, and we have a high level of credibility in the eyes of the people. Guan Daliao's face is not red, "Of course, if something goes wrong, we must publicly apologize to the whole society." ”

He manipulated the mouse to open the homepage of the website, on which two "apology statements" were published in bold letters. One was issued in the name of the newspaper, and the other was prominently signed "Wu Mian, reporter of this newspaper."

"How can you do this, apologize in my name without my consent!" Wu Mian blurted out, and a wave of anger rushed above his head.

The apology statement signed "Wu Mian" is about 500 words, taking the responsibility for the mistake entirely on himself, painfully reviewing the mistake and promising not to make an example. The sincerity of the words and the humility of the attitude are like the review books of primary school students.

"Little rabbit cub, what qualifications do you have to disagree?" Guan Da Liao blew his beard angrily and glared, and scolded: "You should have apologized in person, and you still dare to have an opinion after helping you?"

"If it's really me who got into trouble, I don't have a problem. Wu barely suppressed his anger, "But now that things haven't been figured out, how do you know that it must be my fault?"

"Whose fault could that be? Didn't you write this manuscript?" Guan Daliao roared as his palms slapped heavily on the newspaper.

The other colleagues in the office heard the voice, and turned from listening secretly to watching openly.

"I wrote it. But those three mistakes, I suspect that they are someone else's masterpieces!" Wu Mian's words were like a shock, and everyone was stunned at once.
