International Hotel, the best five-star hotel in the provincial capital, is located in the city center, not only convenient transportation, but also beautiful environment, Lotus Lake, Yingyue Lake are here, high-rise buildings are reflected on the lake, adding a bit of poetry to the towering high-rise buildings, is the landmark building of the provincial capital.

In a luxurious private room that can accommodate dozens of people, more than a dozen people sit around a large round table, here is spacious and comfortable, gorgeous and not lacking warmth, the beautiful waitress is holding a plate of delicacies of the mountains and seas to the table, abalone, lobster, sea cucumber, oysters, etc., etc., the most eye-catching is a roast suckling pig in the middle, the color is like amber, and it seems to be real gold, the burnt fragrance is overflowing, people can't help but swallow saliva.

"Ladies and gentlemen from Beijing, we are also old friends. Wu Changyuan looked at the people at the table and said with a smile, "In order to express my gratitude to everyone who came from afar, I, Wu Changyuan, am here to do my landlord's friendship, please have a working meal, I hope you are not polite, there are no outsiders here, come and come, let's move chopsticks." As he spoke, Wu Changyuan pointed to the fresh seafood on the table and motioned for everyone to eat.

Working meals?

The reporters looked at the abalone, lobster, sea cucumber, roasted suckling pig on the table, this is also called a working meal? What are you kidding, the specifications of this working meal are too high, right? The high level makes them dare not move their chopsticks.

As the old saying goes: the hands of people are short, and the mouth of people is short. If you eat this, how will you write the manuscript?

"Everyone, what's wrong with you? Are you still so polite to me Wu Changyuan?" Wu Changyuan seemed to realize something, and waved his hand at the waitress standing aside, and after the waitresses were gone, he said to the reporters in front of him, "Don't worry, God knows what happened today, you know what I know, and no one else knows." As he spoke, Wu Changyuan took out a stack of red envelopes from his bag, "This is the carriage and horse fee that Wu Changyuan gave to you, I hope you don't have too little." ”

"Mr. Wu, don't you need this?" Seeing that Wu Changyuan was about to give out red envelopes, a reporter next to Wu Changyuan immediately raised his hand and excused himself, he was embarrassed to eat, and if he took other people's red envelopes, he couldn't explain anything.

"Yes, Mr. Wu, you have said it, we are not outsiders, you will be too foreign to take this, and haven't you already paid the carriage and horse expenses? ”

"Yes, we know that Mr. Wu is righteous, but Mr. Wu's money is not blown by the wind, and what we do is just a gesture, so it doesn't have to be like this. ”

In their opinion, where is this red envelope, it is simply a hot taro, once they accept the red envelope, they will not be able to explain to the editor-in-chief when they go back, and they can't accept this red envelope in the danger of being expelled, right? Besides, after they finish writing the manuscript, they have to submit it to the top for review, and once they can't approve it, they write it in vain. So this red envelope must not be taken.

After Wu Changyuan saw the reporters' resignation, he was slightly stunned in his heart, how could these reporters be polite today? There is an unwritten rule in the industry, or rather, an unspoken rule, that is, if you want to ask reporters to write something, you must pay the reporters for their carriages and horses, especially if you want to make the things you write beneficial to yourself, the carriage and horse expenses are even more indispensable.

It's not that he hasn't cooperated with these people in front of him before, just take the winter auction a few days ago, for example, he has cooperated with several reporters here, not to mention food and accommodation, and the car and horse fares are not less, and those people were very happy when they received it, but it's only been a few days, why is it like a different person?

But this red envelope hasn't been opened yet, and the thickness is not thin.

Could it be that I collected a lot last time, and I am embarrassed to collect it this time, so I make a friendship discount, as long as the round-trip ticket money is enough?

"Boss Wu, Zhou Dazhong's antique fraud case is also a big deal in the antique circle, in fact, we have long wanted to come here to interview the parties, but the incident happened suddenly, and the time was not arranged, and now you just gave us such an opportunity, and also provided us with first-hand information, we thank you for being too late, why are you embarrassed to accept your red envelope?" Xiao Zhang looked at Wu Changyuan and said, " So, Boss Wu, we will eat this working meal, but we must not collect these carriage and horse fees, if you insist, that is, treat us as outsiders, and we will leave. Xiao Zhang was about to stand up after speaking.

Wu Changyuan looked at it, and was immediately moved, it seems that his sincerity has completely moved these people, and the two sides have changed from the original transaction to real friends, friends who have nothing to do with money.

"Okay, since you insist, I'll put away these cheesy things. Wu Changyuan stuffed the stack of red envelopes on the table into his leather bag, "Since you don't want to pay for carriage and horses, then I naturally want you to eat and drink well for this working meal at noon today. ”

Hearing Wu Changyuan's words, the reporters were not polite this time, moving the chopsticks and moving the chopsticks, you must know that such a sumptuous working meal is not something that can be eaten at any time.

Wu Changyuan is in a very good mood, not only to become friends with the reporters of these authoritative newspapers in the industry, but also to be able to trample the company's competitor Huaigu under his feet, it is really a double win, killing two birds with one stone, and if there are other competitors in the future, you can also use this way to discredit, it can be said that in Province A, there is no auction company in the future that can threaten him and his Jiade Auction House, which will be of great benefit to his future transfer to the headquarters.

As for those reporters, they didn't refuse Wu Changyuan, because they still don't know what Wu Changyuan means, obviously they treat Huaigu as an enemy in their tone, but what they arrange them to do seems to be whitewashing Huaigu, and they don't do less things to smear or whitewash, but it's as complicated as today, it's the first time they've met, but in order to avoid things from developing in two different directions, everyone carefully accompanied Wu Changyuan, and followed Wu Changyuan's words, no one mentioned the previous interview, and pretended to be confused。

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, everyone here is almost the same.

"Lao Zhao, how was the interview just now, did it go well?" Wu Changyuan asked an old reporter beside him with a bit of alcohol, "The nostalgic people didn't stop you, right?"

The old Zhao who was called was just about to speak, and suddenly felt the cold eyes around him shoot at him, he was a little drunk, and the whole person was sober, but on the surface, he still pretended to be a little drunk, and said to Wu Changyuan, "Smooth, everything is fine, at that time, the nostalgic people really seemed to stop us, but our actions were too fast, and before they could make a move, we had already made contact with the victim." ”

It's so dangerous, I almost leaked my mouth! Lao Zhao said secretly in his heart. If you say this, you won't be beaten up by the other reporters here?

"Haha, I knew you were the most professional. By the way, did all the victims cooperate?" Wu Changyuan asked again.

"Cooperative, very cooperative, answering all questions. Lao Zhao said that he really didn't lie, when they first arrived in Huaigu, they asked a lot of questions, and the victims also answered a lot, but they were all whitewashed for Huaigu.

Wu Changyuan smiled, and said in his heart that Liu Zhi's kid did a good job, people didn't look for it in vain, and the money was not spent in vain. "Then what did they say?" Wu Changyuan asked again.

Hearing his words, the entire private room was quiet, everyone stopped what they were doing, the crabs were no longer eaten, the roast suckling pig was no longer gnawed, and even the raised wine glasses stopped in mid-air, time seemed to stop at this moment, but everyone's eyes fell on Wu Changyuan's body, and at the same time listened to Lao Zhao's answer.

"Oh. Lao Zhao first responded, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and then said slowly, "They talked about their own experience, and also talked about their views on nostalgia and Zhou Dazhong, these contents are not the same as the outside world's circulation, it is worth digging deeply, in short, it is worth the trip." ”

High, really high! A table of reporters admired Lao Zhao in their hearts for the call of a five-body throw, worthy of the old remember, old-timers, what he said was just like nonsense.

After saying so much, he didn't even reveal any of the content, let alone express his opinions and tendencies, Jiang is still old and spicy.

Wu Changyuan smiled, he was very satisfied with this answer, because he knew very well that the victims who went to Huaigu to make trouble today were all people sent by Liu Zhi early in the morning, after a day of brainwashing, those victims already hated Huaigu to the core, especially the addition of those uncles and aunts who danced square dances found by Liu Zhi, and formed a strong combat force, don't look at those uncles and aunts who usually dance well, but when they talk about it, it is definitely a top trick, so if Lao Zhao really writes according to what the victim said, then he will rest assured。

"What about you, what is your attitude?" asked Wu Changyuan, looking at the other reporters present.

"Of course we have the same meaning as Lao Zhao. ”

"Yes, yes, we are going with Lao Zhao, we can't write two kinds of content in one group, right?"

Other reporters chimed in, and at the same time played tai chi.

After Wu Changyuan heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter, a reporter represents a newspaper, so these reporters in front of him have basically been included in all the newspapers and periodicals in the bank. If these people all write about the same thing, and their attitudes towards it are consistent, then no one will not believe it. Three people can become tigers, let alone so many people?

"Fellow journalists, the case of Zhou Dazhong's antique fraud is not trivial, he not only broke the law, but also damaged our antique business, and smeared our auction house, so we must deeply expose this scam, let everyone know about it, and return our antique auction house a clean slate. Wu Changyuan said seriously, like that, that expression, just like an industry leader.

Finally mentioned the auction house!

The reporters present are all understanding people, and now they can figure out Wu Changyuan's attitude.

"Manager Wu, don't worry, as journalists, it is our bounden duty to expose the crime and give the public the truth. Lao Zhao said.

"Yes, Manager Wu, this matter is on us. “

"We finally got together today, and I suggest that from now on, we will only talk about friendship and not business. Manager Wu, how is it?" Xiao Zhang was worried that Wu Changyuan's problems would become more and more and more and eventually embarrassing everyone, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Okay, today we will only talk about friendship, not business. Wu Changyuan was happy and raised the cup, "Come, toast to friendship." ”

"Cheers. ”

……

At the same time, the nostalgic art auction company.

In order to prevent those reporters from the capital from killing back, the company's employees are still sitting in the front corridor pretending to be victims, but the newspaper in their hands has been replaced with a boxed lunch, two meat and two vegetarian dishes, ordered from a famous restaurant nearby, whether it is the type of food or the taste, absolutely nothing.

Chairman's Office.

There were two boxed lunches on the desk, Ye Jin was eating one of them, and there was a pair of chopsticks on the other box, obviously passive, it was Li Dacheng's, but he was standing in front of the window to answer the phone at this time.

"Well, well, I know, come back......" After a few simple words, Li Dacheng returned to the desk and sat down, looked at Ye Jin opposite and said, "Those reporters are having dinner with Wu Changyuan, according to the report of the person who went to follow, Wu Changyuan asked about the interview at the table, but those reporters did not clearly indicate their attitude towards the case, so I think the words of those reporters should be credible." ”

"I didn't show my attitude, and it doesn't mean that they will report according to our intentions, so I'd better call and urge my friends again." ”

"They got a call at the same time before you showed up, and their attitude towards us has changed since that call, so I think that call of yours must have had a certain effect. Li Dacheng said.

"Wouldn't it, would it be so fast?" Ye Jin was a little surprised.

"You should be happy, this shows that you Ye Jin is very strong in the capital. Li Dacheng said with a smile.

"Actually, no. Ye Jin became humble after hearing this, compared to Li Dacheng, she didn't feel that she had anything to be proud of.

"And, I think, among those reporters from the capital, there are people who know you. Li Dacheng thought of the previous scene and looked at Ye Jin's eyes thoughtfully.

"You know me, don't you, why don't I feel it?" Ye Jin said curiously.

"Didn't you hear that when the reporter was calling, he was talking about Miss Ye?" Li Dacheng said, "If I'm not mistaken, since you appeared, from beginning to end, you haven't reported your home, how can that reporter know that your surname is Ye?"

It may also be Wu Changyuan who told him. Ye Jin said.

"It's not impossible, but have you noticed the attitude of that reporter when he spoke to you? Bend down and bow your head, respectfully, if you don't know your background, but only heard about it from Wu Changyuan, I don't think so. Li Dacheng analyzed, "Judging from this, those reporters' attitudes towards the case have been very clear, probably because they don't want to offend Wu Changyuan or Jiade, so they are so ambiguous in front of Wu Changyuan." The report should be available in the next few days, so let's wait and see. Let's see if we laugh or Wu Changyuan cry. ”
