Chapter 22: Sure enough, there's an inside story

I didn't go to bed until after two o'clock in the morning.

At around six o'clock in the morning, Zheng Xiao was woken up by the alarm clock set on her mobile phone. He got up in a daze, rushed to the bathroom in the room, and took a shower, and refreshed himself.

"Zheng Xiao, why did you get up so early?" On the other bed, Li Xuegang rubbed his eyes stuck to eye feces and asked.

Zheng Xiao shaved at the mirror on the wall and said, "I'm going to apply for a job today, it's quite far away from us, so I have to take the car early." ”

"Oh, what unit?"

"Xijing TV."

"Xijing TV? What kind of position are they recruiting? Li Xuegang was quite surprised, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was no suitable position for a unit like them to study business administration and TV stations.

"News anchors."

"Hahaha!" Li Xuegang laughed, "Zheng Xiao, you're not joking, are you?" Just you? Applying for a streamer? You haven't even passed the Mandarin Level 3 and B exams! ”

Putonghua level is divided into 3 levels, first-class A is the highest level, and generally broadcasting and hosting and other industries require Putonghua to reach this level.

The lowest level of Mandarin is the third grade.

People who speak third-class Mandarin generally have more pronunciation errors in pronunciation, prominent dialect accent characteristics, and obvious dialect intonation. There are many mistakes in words and grammar. Speaking this kind of Mandarin, it is very likely that there will be cases where outsiders will not understand their conversations.

Zheng Xiao's original Mandarin was very bad, and the local accent was so thick that he didn't even pass the lowest-level Mandarin exam.

Zheng Xiao smiled and said, "Don't you think that my Mandarin has improved a lot now?" ”

Li Xuegang was stunned and scratched his head: "It seems that yes, your Mandarin is much smoother than before, melodious and sonorous, Zheng Xiao, what kind of magical changes have happened to you, I feel like you have changed people." ”

Zheng Xiaoxin said, I really am not who I was at that time at this time. But he didn't explain too much, and said with a smile: "Xuegang, you can sleep again, I'll go." ”

He said and went out.

At this time, it was already more than seven twenty in the morning, the sun was already rising, the sun was very scorching, the people walking on the road were sweating profusely, and the air was filled with the smell of stinky salted fish.

Xijing TV station is at the intersection of Guangdian Road and Beilin Road.

This place is probably located in the southeastern suburbs of Xijing.

Starting from Xiaotan Village, taking the 919 bus, crossing most of the city, bumpy for more than an hour, Zheng Xiao arrived at the place at half past eight o'clock.

When he got out of the car, he saw the imposing main building of Xijing TV Station.

There were one or two hundred young men and women standing at the entrance of the TV station, all of them handsome guys and beautiful women, most of whom were wearing suits and shirts, dressed like grooms. The girls are dressed up beautifully, but the makeup on their faces is about to be washed into ravines by oil and sweat.

"Are these all here to apply for anchors?" Zheng Xiao muttered in her heart.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it was normal, for the vast majority of young people, being a TV host seemed to be a shortcut to fame and profit.

In addition, many universities now offer broadcasting and hosting majors, and there are a lot of graduates, so it's no wonder that Xijing TV is recruiting anchors when they hear the news!

Zheng Xiao cleaned himself up again, and confirmed that he was still dressed neatly and neatly, so he was relieved.

He walked towards the TV gate.

"Huh? There seem to be a lot of people at the door, just one anchor quota, how can there be so many applicants? A woman's voice sounded behind Zheng Xiao's side.

"These people are all fools, they know that they have no hope, but they still want to come and try, I don't know if a good opportunity like this is generally decided in advance?" Another woman's voice responded.

Zheng Xiao glanced sideways, but it was two women in professional suits.

Looking at the way they look with work cards around their necks, they should be the staff inside Xijing TV.

"I heard that Director Lin's nephew is also going to participate in this selection?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin's nephew Liu Jianghan just graduated from Huaxia University of Communication and Communication with excellent grades in broadcasting and hosting, I heard that he originally wanted to stay in Beijing TV, but then he was squeezed out of the opportunity, so he retreated and returned to our Xijing TV station, wanting to make a name for himself."

"Then since that's the case, why doesn't Taili ask for people directly? What is the purpose of this news anchor open recruitment and selection? ”

"I heard that Liu Jianghan took the initiative to ask for it, and he didn't want to carry the reputation of coming in through the back door."

"Whew! There are so many capable people in the country, and with such an open selection, what if he is squeezed out again? ”

"How so? This Liu Jianghan is amazing, I heard that Liu Jianghan has quick thinking, outstanding eloquence, amazing memory, and high broadcasting and hosting skills, not only that, he is also versatile, and he is proficient in acting, singing, and opera. ”

"If that's the case, then I don't think there's anyone else who can compete with him. Alas! Pity these people, they came to accompany the prince to study on a hot day. ”

Two women walked through the door as they spoke.

Zheng Xiao and the people from the brigade who came to participate in the selection were blocked out.

After another twenty or thirty minutes, a young man came over and beckoned, "Everyone is here to compete, right?" Keep things in order, and come with me. ”

So, a bunch of sweaty handsome men and women were able to enter the gate.

Walking into the main building of Xijing TV Station, the cool air conditioning was blowing, and Zheng Xiao felt much more comfortable.

Take the stairs to the second floor.

The man said, "Let's sit here for a while, fill out a form, and after filling out the form, there will be a short interview to screen out those who are not professional at all, and then we will hold a written test, and only those who pass the written test will be eligible for the final competitive selection." ”

On the second floor, there was a waiting area for visitors outside, and it was a big place, with six or seven sofas and three or four rows of chairs.

However, even this is not enough for so many people to sit.

Zheng Xiao, who didn't get a seat, was the first to hand in the form she had filled out. The young man glanced at the form filled out by Zheng Xiao and nodded, "Come with me." ”

Zheng Xiao followed the man into an office with the words "Preliminary Examination Office" on the door.

Behind the desk sat a seductive old woman.

Her orange-dyed hair was particularly eye-catching, her face was painted white, and her lips were blood-red, as if she had just eaten a dead child.

Even with such heavy makeup, Zheng Xiao can see the age of this woman when she is still light: at least fifty years old.

Zheng Xiao followed the young man into the office, and the woman was still looking in the mirror, looking so intoxicated that she got carried away.

"Director Lin, can the interview begin?" The young man put Zheng Xiao's form in the old woman's hand and asked softly.

"Let's get started." The old woman put the mirror aside and said lightly.

Zheng Xiao was asked to sit down on the chair in front of the table.

The young man stepped back and closed the door.

"You didn't graduate from broadcasting and hosting?" The old woman glanced at Zheng Xiao's form and asked.
