Chapter 55: Wonderful Question Solution
The reporters were very excited to listen to it, and they all had a good look on their faces. Someone grabbed the camera and turned to shoot at Shen Yi frequently, and even the TV camera turned to focus on him.
"Jin Guangsheng personally told me this morning that he talked to you at that time that he could use a huge amount of money to assist you. Is there such a thing?" Shen Yi continued to ask Chai Qing.
"No! I haven't asked him for help from beginning to end!" Chai Qing said angrily and helplessly.
"That's weird. He said yes, and you said no. Shen Yi said quietly, "But you did talk to him on the phone several times, since you didn't ask him for help, can you tell us what was going on on the phone at that time?"
“…… It's inconvenient for me to say, anyway, I didn't ask for help, no is no!" Chai Qing was disrupted by the other party, and her speech was like she was angry.
At this point, Wu Mian's heart was bright, and he understood Shen Yi's true intentions. This person didn't want Chai Qing to answer the question, but he decided on the conclusion at the beginning, and then carefully laid a language trap by asking questions.
You must know that it was Jin Guangsheng who offered to help at that time, on the condition that Chai Qing be his lover, but it was impossible for her to disclose this in public, because there was no recording as evidence, Jin Guangsheng would definitely not admit it, and if she didn't do it, he would bite her back and frame her. This caused her to fall into a great deal of passivity at the moment.
When two people have different opinions about something, if one of them can say the specific content, and the other party denies it, but is vague about the details, it often gives people the feeling of "dodging". In such cases, journalists are usually inclined to believe the former.
The same is true today, most reporters frowned and shook their heads when they heard Chai Qing say "it's inconvenient to say", and felt that Jin Guangsheng's statement was more credible.
"Thank you for your answer. I don't have any other questions. Shen Yi smiled and ended the question. His purpose has been largely achieved.
Chai Qing's face was pale, and she stood up and wanted to leave the conference room, but the rest of the reporters were willing to let her go, so they got up and surrounded her, asking new questions in a gossiping voice.
"Director Chai, is Jin Guangsheng secretly helping you as a 'master behind the scenes'?"
"If not, who is the real 'master' behind the scenes?"
"You and Jin Guangsheng's statements are diametrically opposed, can I understand that your implication is that Jin Guangsheng is lying?"
These questions were more difficult to answer one by one, Chai Qing couldn't resist it at all, so she could only bow her head and continue to walk out, but she was blocked by the reporters and fell into a very embarrassing situation.
Wu Mian thought to himself that he had no choice, he had to come forward to help her personally! Otherwise, all his efforts from last night to today would be in vain.
"Director Chai, you and I are alumni of the same university. Can you give me a face, so that I can also have a chance to ask questions?" Wu Mian shouted loudly, and at the same time glanced at Chai Qing.
Although Chai Qing didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, he had already had a blind sense of trust in him in his heart, so he stood still and nodded.
Since her eyes were looking at Wu Mian, the other reporters quieted down as usual, waiting for Wu Mian to speak.
"My question is simple. According to this reporter from the "Huangpu Securities News" just now, you and Jin Guangsheng talked on the phone several times yesterday, may I ask whether you took the initiative to call him, or did he take the initiative to call you?"
"He called me. Chai Qing replied.
"Every time, he took the initiative to call you, and you didn't call him once?" Wu Mian asked repeatedly.
"Yes!" Chai Qing's eyes lit up, and she suddenly understood the man's intentions, and a smile appeared on her face again.
She pointed at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "This reporter friend has printed out my mobile phone call record, who took the initiative to call whom, don't you know if you look at the record?"
"Thank you. Wu Mian took two steps back, signaling that he was done asking, and at the same time waved his right hand downward.
Chai Qing understood that this was urging her to leave immediately, so she ignored the repeated questions of other reporters and broke through with the help of two secretaries of Huisheng China.
Fortunately, most of the people who came today are financial reporters, and they are usually used to interviewing in the office and conference room, usually more gentle, so after chasing a few steps to see that she really didn't want to answer, she went back. If it was a paparazzi or a social version of the reporter, who was used to chasing and intercepting the interviewee, Chai Qing would not have been able to get out so easily.
"Hey, brother, where did you get that call log? Can you lend me a look?" The reporters flocked to Shen Yi instead, asking him for the call logs.
"Hehe, an informant gave it to me. Just look at it. Shen Yi was also generous, and put the two-page record on the chair for everyone to watch. Many reporters took pictures with their cameras and talked about it as they watched.
Among them, there were two of the most senior reporters in their fifties, who interviewed Jin Guangsheng before he made a career and recognized his mobile phone number at a glance.
Chai Qing was right, Lao Jin called her four times, and each time Lao Jin took the initiative to call. The two announced as if they had discovered a new continent.
The reporters were amazed, and after discussion, everyone decided to pick someone to call Jin Guangsheng on the spot and ask him for further verification. Of course, during the call, the phone turned on the speaker so that everyone could hear it clearly.
However, after the phone was dialed, it was automatically transferred to the manual secretary desk. The operator said that Jin Guangsheng is on a flight abroad at the moment, and he will not be able to answer the phone for several hours, so please leave a message and leave a phone number for a reply.
The reporters were disappointed and began to suspect that Jin Guangsheng was "dodging". They decided to keep trying to call him after they went back, and if they couldn't get through by the deadline, it meant that Chai Qing's words were more credible.
This reason is obvious, if it was really Chai Qing who begged Jin Guangsheng for help, then she should have taken the initiative to call him. But now it's just the opposite, all the calls were made by Jin Guangsheng to Chai Qing, and she didn't take the initiative to call him once, which shows that she doesn't want anything from him.
Wu Mian was quite proud in his heart, but of course he didn't show it on the surface. He packed up his belongings, said hello to his acquaintances, and then walked out first, and came to the door of the hotel to stop the taxi.
"Brother, please wait!" suddenly came a cry behind him.
Wu Mian turned his head when he heard the voice, and it turned out to be Shen Yi. He strode after him, and stepped in front of Wu Mian in a few steps.
"Hello, I'm Shen Yi from Whampoa Securities News. Shen Yi took out a business card with both hands and handed it over, "Which media reporter are you?
"Don't dare to be a nobody!" Wu Mian also took out his business card, "Wu Mian of Dongjiang Business Daily." Please advise. ”
The two exchanged business cards. Wu Mian saw that the title column was printed with "The First Chief Reporter of the Finance Edition", and he couldn't help but be slightly moved.
Frontline journalists are usually titled "intern journalist" to "journalist" to "senior reporter" and "chief reporter". Only a handful of veteran journalists who have won many awards will receive the honorary title of "First Chief". This guy can become the "first chief" at a young age, and he must have real talent and learning, no wonder he can overwhelm Chai Qing's questions.
"Brother, did you just come to Zhuzhou? I don't think I've ever seen you before. Wu Mian looked directly at him and asked.
Shen Yi smiled: "Our newspaper headquarters is in SH, and I have been running in SH before, and I was only transferred to Dongjiang Province last week. ”
After the two exchanged a few words, Shen Yi asked casually, "Brother, how long have you been a reporter?"
"More than three years. ”
"Tut, it's been so powerful for more than three years! The question just now is really level, and one sentence is to the point, this is really the back wave of the Yangtze River pushing the front wave!"
"Where and where, you are amazing! All the problems are hidden killer tricks, and you really deserve to be the 'first chief reporter'!"
Both of them laughed fakely, and only in their own hearts did they know the true meaning of each other's words.
The reason why Shen Yi was able to almost force Chai Qing into an embarrassment was not only because he was fully prepared, but also because he carefully set a trap. At the beginning, he repeatedly mentioned that Chai Qing had "called" three important people in the financial world, and since this was a fact, Chai Qing did not deny it.
Later, when Jin Guangsheng was mentioned, Shen Yi's statement quietly became "you and him on the phone", although there is only one word difference between "calling" and "talking on the phone", but it blurs the most critical factor of "who takes the initiative to call whom", plus he deliberately put Chai Qing in the subject position and Jin Guangsheng in the object position, so it feels more like "Chai Qing called Jin Guangsheng".
This is also a word game that only a very clever veteran journalist can play! Using this kind of uncomplicated language trap is enough to make the layman unconsciously take the bait.
And Wu Mian saw through this trap, so he deliberately woke up Chai Qing by asking questions and dissolved it invisibly.
After a few more pleasantries, Shen Yi enthusiastically proposed to have lunch together, Wu Mian politely declined, claiming that he had another task, and he would eat again next time he was free.
Seeing the taxi go away, Shen Yi picked up his mobile phone and dialed the number of a landline with a thoughtful expression.
"I'm sorry, I failed. Chai Qing did have a master behind him to help secretly, but I couldn't achieve the expected effect. ”
"Where's the master, business or politics?" asked a man's voice with a SH accent.
"Neither. It's a journalist. Shen Yi said, "I asked five or six questions in a row, and after the encirclement that I had worked so hard to complete, this person only asked two questions - oh no, strictly speaking, only one - and the whole encirclement collapsed!"
"So strong, is it a name?" SH accented with a slight mockery.
"No, just an ordinary front-line reporter. But I think he's very hidden, and he's really very clever. ”
"Is it better than you?"
"It's hard to say. Shen Yi's tone was calm and conceited, "This time he was mainly caught off guard, next time, he won't win so easily!"
