Chapter 19: Tommy's Windfall
"What? What are these things? What I want is the revelations, the dark side! What did you give me? Compliments? God knows what the value of these beautiful things is other than being able to look at and eat? Are you a pig brain? I remember telling you what I needed! You've been fired, now take your **** materials, get out of my newspaper office immediately, now, immediately, immediately! The editor-in-chief roared. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
So all the rhetoric of Tommy's kindness was useless, and he left the newspaper in embarrassment under the banter of other colleagues, he had done his best, and he couldn't imagine that he was still rejected, why the editor-in-chief just refused to use the beautiful things.
This is a concept that Tommy has always been unacceptable, he has thought of compromising for the sake of his work, but... he realizes that he really can't do it, wandering around aimlessly, Tommy thinks that his ideal may be a mistake, maybe he is not suitable to be a journalist, and it is here that he hears angry curses from someone in the open-air café next to him.
"What the hell are you guys doing, it's already going viral on Twitter, and you tell me you can't find it? It's in Los Angeles, but you told me I couldn't find it? What to do, am I going to the FBI? A middle-aged woman was elegantly sipping coffee, but she was cursing a subordinate on the phone.
Oh, how similar is it to the editor-in-chief, maybe everyone who is the CEO is like this? But why is the boss so approachable? Tommy doesn't understand, maybe being a chef is his real way out, and he likes to eat anyway.
"You have to know that my show is about to start, but there hasn't been a really good chef, look at the guy you guys got me, look at the chef on Twitter, is that a grade? They don't even count as apprentices in front of him, find him for me right away, damn it, or you'll be in the pan like that fish! ”
"Wait, what is she talking about? Twitter... Chef? Fish? Under the oil pan? "Well, if you connect, there's only one person Tommy can think of, and it's the boss!
"Excuse me, can you interrupt?" Tommy said hello as he walked over to the middle-aged woman with a smile on his face.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I just made it too loud, I hope it didn't bother you, I'm just a little impatient..." The lady also seemed to realize that she had just done something wrong, and apologized very elegantly.
"No, no, no, it's okay, I'm not a staff member here, I just heard what you said, isn't this what you said on Twitter?" Tommy explained, then took out his phone and clicked on his Twitter to play the video above.
"Oh God, that's it, no, your perspective doesn't seem to be the same as what I see? Do you mean... The lady's eyes were already about to light up, and if it was this young man, she would have pulled him to her own television station without saying a word.
"No, you're mistaken, I'm actually a journalist, yes, I filmed it when I was working at that restaurant, and there were other people with it, and we tweeted it." Tommy looked disappointed, but there was a clue that she could find the man, and she immediately cheered up again.
"So what are you looking for me? Can you take me to that person? The lady calmed down.
"I want you to take a look at this first, and then we're talking about something else..." Saying that, Tommy took out all the other things he had photographed, and when the ladies watched them all one by one, his heart was completely uncalm, and this person's cooking skills... Yes, it was already art.
"What do you want?" After taking a sip of coffee to calm down, the lady said.
"I need a job, a job that has something to do with the news media, and in fact I just got fired from the Global Daily... because the editor-in-chief needs to break the news, and I can only give him good." Tommy said with some frustration and expectation.
"Global Daily? I see, I'm not surprised that Johnson, the greedy and miserly guy who thinks about the big news every day, doesn't know that his news is based entirely on other people's pain, and that you're going to be kicked out. ”
After hearing Tommy's self-report, the lady immediately understood that Johnson's reputation in the press was really stinky, but the daily newspaper sales were very good, and there were always some people who wanted to see the misfortune of others, which also made Johnson more and more arrogant.
"So let's get down to business, I can give you a job, a job related to journalism, how about a special correspondent? In addition to the monthly guaranteed salary, every time you find a news as long as it is adopted by me, there will be a bonus, the amount of the bonus depends on the value of the news, of course, the premise is, take me to him! ”
The lady pointed to Li Hao's face on the screen and said, Tommy only hesitated for two seconds before agreeing, compared with the boss's personal future, Tommy chose the former without hesitation, and he felt that this was a famous shortcut, and it could also make the boss's business better, why not do a win-win thing.
"This is it, the boss is inside, but if the boss doesn't want to, you can't say that I brought you here." How to say that Li Hao is also not bad to him.
"Don't worry!" The lady walked in, and it happened that Li Hao was also there, today was the first day of the official opening, although the business was not very busy, but there were quite a few people coming.
Li Hao saw a middle-aged lady walk straight in front of him, then stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, I'm Jenny Foster from Los Angeles TV, you can call me Jenny!" Are you the boss here? ”
Li Hao stupidly stretched out his hand and shook it and said, "Hello, I'm the boss here, Jenny doesn't know what you're looking for me?" ”
"That's it, I saw this on Twitter, it was perfect, you know I just had an idea for a food show, and then you showed up, and I thought if I could..."
Li Hao understood that this was to let himself do a TV show, but he didn't seem to have the will to do this, although he had a lot of time, he didn't want to leave his shop.
"Don't say no yet, okay? Can we find a place to have a good chat? At least give me a chance! A chance to convince you! ”
Jenny said very sincerely, to be honest, few people can refuse a beauty, even if she is a middle-aged beauty, with mature charm, she has a greater attraction to young people, of course, Li Hao is not included, he has no feelings for foreign girls.
