Chen Chuan, who had been sitting all night, walked out of McDonald's with trembling steps, he didn't sleep all night, his head was dizzy, and his back hurt. The rain outside had stopped, but the sun above his head had not had any temperature, and the northwest wind was blowing, and he wrapped his clothes tightly and shivered in the cold wind.

"Ahem, cough, cough......" Stimulated by the cold wind, he coughed again, coughing so much that he couldn't even straighten his waist.

I don't know if it's because of the psychological effect, since Chen Chuan knew that he had lung cancer, he coughed even more, and almost coughed out the lobes of his lungs several times. Seeing this situation, he still had to find a place to live to rest and rest, otherwise he would die on the road sooner or later.

It is no longer suitable to sleep in the bridge cave on such a cold day, Chen Chuan, who is in financial distress, found a basement nearby, the rent is very cheap, only three hundred a month, Chen Chuan happily paid the rent and deposit for March.

After he officially moved in, he regretted it a little, the basement was dark and damp, not to mention, there was only one toilet on the entire floor, and it was already emitting a foul smell in winter, so it was better to sleep in the bridge cave in this environment. Chen Chuan frowned and took out the key to open the door, and just then his new neighbor, a short and stocky balding young man, returned.

The bald man was carrying a plastic bag of instant noodles in his hand, looking at Chen Chuan dragging a large bag of small bags, he opened a pair of cloudy eyes, and looked at Chen Chuan from top to bottom, that kind of look seemed to directly see the body: "Handsome guy, I just moved here." ”

"Yes, yes." Chen Chuan, a big man, was uncomfortable with him, he laughed dryly, and quickly opened the door and went in.

After locking the door, he heard the bald man shouting behind the door: "Handsome guy, have you eaten, my brother invited you out for a meal, just celebrate that we can be so fateful, not only met in the vast sea of people, but also became neighbors." ”

Chen Chuan shouted against the door: "Don't be so polite, I've already eaten." ”

After hearing the "bang" of the door next door, he breathed a sigh of relief, the feeling of being stared at like this by a man was really indescribably disgusting. He looked at the cramped room, which could only fit a bed, and there was not even a heater, and the cold came out of the ground, and he coughed again.

Chen Chuan, who had sorted out his things, boiled himself a pot of water, and then wrapped himself in a quilt with a cup and used his mobile phone to find a job.

Just after yesterday's suicide attempt, he found that he still had a nostalgia for life, although God was unfair to him, but only alive can there be hope, he is still young, he will be able to save enough money for medical treatment before his illness worsens, so the urgent need is to find a job that can make money, preferably the kind that can make a lot of money.

But the signal in this basement is too bad, Chen Chuan brushed for a long time before submitting a few resumes, and then looked at the traffic exceeded the standard. In order to avoid the shutdown of his mobile phone in arrears, he had to temporarily stop his plan to cast a wide net.

After a long two-day wait, only one company made an appointment with Chen Chuan for an interview. It was an online studio that was hiring reporters, and it didn't ask for any applicants, but it didn't specify the salary.

Chen Chuan searched for a long time according to the address given above, and finally found this studio in a residential building in the 80s of the last century. The speckled walls, the worn-out desks, and the musty smell of the room made it a little stronger than his basement.

"Chen Chuan, huh?" A middle-aged man pretended to flip through her resume, and there was no one in the office except him, "Graduated last year?" ”

"yes." Chen Chuan was afraid that he had entered the nest of pyramid schemes, and his dark eyes kept turning, for fear that a bunch of people would appear from the corner and hold him back.

The middle-aged man also realized that he was indeed like a liar, he uncomfortably straightened his tie, coughed and said: "Although I have broken it a little, but at this stage, it is only the initial stage of the studio, and it will only get better and better in the future, and when we really develop, you will be a veteran." ”

"It's hard to say whether this place can be developed." Chen Chuan pursed his lips and said in his heart.

The middle-aged man saw Chen Chuan's suspicious gaze and took out his press card: "Don't look at me now, I used to be the editor-in-chief of Xindu Entertainment, and then I came out to work alone, you must know that the economy is in a recession, and the only promising thing is the Internet industry and the entertainment industry, and our company is just linked to both, and the prospect should not be underestimated. ”

Chen Chuan was a little ashamed of what he said, and asked half-convinced: "Then what is your salary?" ”

"The basic salary is two thousand."

"Two thousand?" When Chen Chuan heard this number, he was about to leave with his bag on his back.

"Wait." The editor-in-chief was anxious and stopped him, "This is just the basic salary, and there is a commission, if you want to do it well, you can't run 10,000 a month." ”

"Is being a journalist a commission?"

"Zhuo Jiming, do you know?" The editor-in-chief appeased Chen Chuan, and when he heard Ye Jingjing ask, he made a fool of himself.

"That Internet big V, who specializes in secretly photographing celebrities."

"How can it be called candid photography, then expose it." The editor-in-chief said, "Our duty as journalists is to liberate the facts from hypocrisy and expose them to the public. ”

"But what does it have to do with commissions?" Chen Chuan still didn't understand the meaning of the editor-in-chief's words.

"Why don't you understand?" The editor-in-chief glanced at Chen Chuan with disgust, "You think Zhuo Jiming's account is just him, it's a team." As for our studio, although it is not as famous as Zhuo Jiming's account, we do the same thing. ”

"Oh......" Chen Chuan suddenly realized, it turned out that this company said it was an online studio, but in fact, it opened an account on Weibo, "But what does that have to do with commissions?" ”

The editor-in-chief is absolutely down, how did he recruit such a stupid person, but a little smarter to see the appearance of their company probably won't even enter the door, he patiently explained: "Our Weibo is not counting the water army, and now there are more than 30,000 followers, as long as we shoot some explosive news, our attention will continue to soar, then naturally there will be companies coming to us to advertise, which is called network marketing." ”

The editor-in-chief took a sip and continued: "And your job, in fact, is very simple, is to find a little explosive news, and then at the end of the month, according to the advertising fee share, the more photos you take, the more sensational it is, and the more your share will naturally be." ”

The editor-in-chief tried to keep smiling: "Now do you understand?" ”

Chen Chuan nodded, isn't it just candid filming, tracking, dividing, to put it bluntly, it's a paparazzi, such a simple thing has to go around such a big turn: "Then when can I go to work?" ”

The editor-in-chief saw that he had fooled a fool, so he pretended to be reserved and said: "As long as you pass the assessment before taking up your post, you can do it at any time." ”

"And assessments?" Chen Chuan was surprised, he had to pass the guò assessment before he could take up his post.
