Chapter 137: The Press Corps
Zhao Changfeng listened to Liu Chi's tone very flat, and he was not as excited as he imagined, and he was a little confused in his heart. What kind of person is Liu Chi? With such a rare opportunity for publicity and exposure, you can promote yourself to the people of Bibei City openly, and you can show your face in the news media of the province, are you not excited at all? Could it be that Liu Chi is a doer who just wants to do some practical things, and doesn't care about propaganda or not? Even Liu Chi may think that at this critical moment of leading all the people of Bibei City to fight against the blizzard, Zhao Changfeng invited a large group of reporters from the news media to come over, which in itself is a kind of interference with the anti-snow work of Bibei City? Since you can't figure it out, don't think about it at all. Zhao Changfeng's move itself was not to blindly show favor to Liu Chi, his main purpose was to have a grandiose excuse to return to Bibei City and fight the snow with the people of the city. As the temporary squad leader of the Beibei Municipal Axe, Zhao Changfeng could not tolerate him staying out of the matter at the critical juncture when more than 400,000 people in Pibei City were fighting against the snow.
With Liu Chi's consent, Zhao Changfeng smiled and said to Fang Jiayi on the side: "Jiayi, I will discuss something with you, I want to invite a few news media to ......"
Fang Jiayi coldly interrupted Zhao Changfeng's words: "Zhao Laoxuan, what you have decided, why are you pretending to discuss with me?" Haven't you already reported to your Secretary Liu? ”
Zhao Changfeng laughed embarrassedly and said, "Jiayi, I was also in a hurry and forgot to discuss with you in advance." Next time, next time, I will definitely ask for the consent of my good wife in advance, okay? ”
Fang Jiayi sighed and said, "Changfeng, it stands to reason that I shouldn't stop you, but as soon as I saw the thick snow outside, I was a little stunned in my heart. Changfeng, can you not go back this time? ”
Zhao Changfeng shook his head and said, "No, I have already reported to Secretary Liu." ”
Fang Jiayi said: "What does it matter if you report it? You can contact the news reporter and let Xiao Liu take them back! ”
"Jiayi, I have to go back! At this critical juncture, I must be with my people! Zhao Changfeng said.
"Your people, do you think you're the president?" Fang Jiayi said: "Anyway, I don't agree with you going back in this situation!" ”
"Jiayi!" Zhao Changfeng wanted to get angry, but after thinking about it, Fang Jiayi was also concerned about his own safety, so he couldn't help but soften, and said softly: "Jiayi, don't worry." Because the road is so difficult, I will definitely be safe. Driver Lao Xing is driving, you don't know, it has always been safety first, in fact, I don't need you to remind me, I will also explain to him, after all, I want to invite a car of reporters back this time, if something goes wrong, the joke will be big. ”
"Changfeng, don't be reckless next time, okay?" Fang Jiayi saw Zhao Changfeng begging softly, she couldn't help but soften, she stepped forward and hugged Zhao Changfeng and said: "For me, you are not the mayor of Bibei City, you are just my husband, and you are my most beloved person!" ”
Zhao Changfeng was also moved, reflexively saved Fang Jiayi, and said with a smile: "Jiayi, you are also my most beloved person." Don't worry, I will explain to Lao Xing and let him slowly swing back to the north. ”
After doing Fang Jiayi's work, Zhao Changfeng immediately called Jiang Wenjing and Xue Yingjie to briefly introduce the snow resistance situation in Bibei City to them, Jiang Wenjing naturally didn't have to say, Xue Yingjie heard that a record-setting blizzard fell in Bibei City, and he also felt that this was a good subject, and he had a very good impression of Zhao Changfeng when he went to Bibei City last time because of the pollution of Dalongxi, and immediately agreed to Zhao Changfeng's request.
After inviting Zhongzhou Evening News and Zhongyuan Daily, the two most influential print media in Central Plains Province, Zhao Changfeng called the Central Plains Provincial TV Station again and found the historical reporter who reported on his poverty alleviation in Liangyazi Township, F County, N City. Reporter Shi has become the deputy director of the news department of the Central Plains Provincial Television Station at this time, he has been in close contact with Zhao Changfeng, I heard that Zhao Changfeng wanted him to go to Bibei City to interview the anti-snow work, he agreed, and said with a smile that Bibei City is the hometown of gold, and he led the staff of the provincial TV station down to count it as gold-plated. Zhao Changfeng laughed and said: "Bibei City will not live up to Director Shi's high expectations, and will definitely make the staff of the provincial TV station fully plated with real gold." ”
After contacting the three most important media in the province, Zhao Changfeng still felt that the lineup was not strong enough, so he called Yang Jiangchao again and asked him to help contact other media in the provincial capital. Yangjiang Chao made soft advertisements for the Funiu Mountain Scenic Area all day long, and the large and small media in the Central Plains Province took it all, and after receiving a call from Zhao Changfeng, he immediately helped Zhao Changfeng contact five or six media reporters. Zhao Changfeng counted the number of people, exactly eleven people, and they could make up a complete Premier League lineup.
The time for the interview was set for tomorrow morning, and in the evening, Zhao Changfeng booked a large box at the Zhongzhou Traders Hotel, and gathered all eleven people, including Director Shi, Xue Yingjie, and Jiang Wenjing, to have a lively time. Zhao Changfeng originally wanted Fang Jiayi to accompany him over, but Fang Jiayi was still a little annoyed that Zhao Changfeng hurried back to Bibei City in the wind and snow, so he said that he was not familiar with those people and was not comfortable in the past. Zhao Changfeng thought about it, so he didn't force Fang Jiayi.
At half past six in the evening, the reporters all gathered, and Zhao Changfeng did not bring Liu Junkang and came alone. Those reporters applauded when they saw it, saying that Mayor Zhao was so powerful that he went to the meeting alone!
Zhao Changfeng smiled faintly and said that it was not a Hongmen banquet, what are you afraid of? Today is my treat, and I am the host. When he sat down in the main escort position, Zhao Changfeng found that Jiang Wenjing's seat was next to him, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence or intention.
After the banquet began, there were two goals, one was Zhao Changfeng, he was both the host and the leader, according to the rules of Central Plains Province, the leader must drink well with the leader, and if he didn't drink well, it would be rude. So what is a good drink? The rules of the Central Plains Province emphasize getting drunk and not falling. To put it in technical terms, it is to control the leader's alcohol at the critical point of drunkenness; Another target at the wine table is Jiang Wenjing, eleven reporters, just Jiang Wenjing is a woman, and Jiang Wenjing is a beautiful woman with a beautiful national color, so she is naturally the target of everyone's siege. Especially when these reporters heard that Jiang Wenjing actually met Mayor Zhao when he was in college, they even coaxed him and insisted on linking Zhao Changfeng and Jiang Wenjing. They deliberately attacked Jiang Wenjing, in order to see Zhao Changfeng heroically save the United States.
For Zhao Changfeng, there is no difference between wine and water, as long as he is allowed to go to the toilet, he can drink almost unlimited amounts. Not to mention that Jiang Wenjing is his good friend, even if Jiang Wenjing has nothing to do with him, even if Jiang Wenjing is a reporter he invited, he will fulfill his responsibility to protect. So he used one block ten to digest all the wine that the male reporter had given him. These reporters are just lively, and they are naturally measured in their hearts. Mayor Zhao invited them to go to Bibei City for an interview in the snowy weather, and the sponsorship fee must be indispensable, especially since Bibei City is a golden city, and the financial revenue can rank among the top three county-level cities in the province. But when they saw that Zhao Changfeng did not refuse, whether it was to respect him or Jiang Wenjing, they couldn't help but be curious, and wanted to test how much Mayor Zhao had drunk. Just like this, Zhao Changfeng's face did not change, and the male reporters were eight points drunk.
When Zhao Changfeng saw this situation, he accepted it when he saw it, and said with a smile: "No, no, no, I can't stand it, and I'll get drunk if I drink it again." Raise your noble hands, let me go, and I invite you to sing, how about it? ”
The reporters were in a dilemma, and after listening to Zhao Changfeng's proposal, they couldn't help but applaud, and the director of the provincial TV station said to Zhao Changfeng with a snort of wine: "Mayor Zhao, why have I never seen you drunk for so many years?" When can I get drunk and show our brother once? This should be considered a piece of news with an explosive surname, right? ”
Zhao Changfeng pretended to burp a drink, shook his head and said, "Director Shi, I'm actually drunk a long time ago, but I'm just pretending to be sober." Okay, okay, let's go up, let's sing tonight, sing to your heart's content, and everyone will follow me to the north early tomorrow morning! ”
Everyone responded with gossip and followed Zhao Changfeng to the Red Spicy Fang Club on the sixth floor. After entering the box, Jiang Wenjing found a corner and sat down. Zhao Changfeng came to the middle of the box and was about to sit down, but the reporters coaxed Zhao Changfeng to sit here, and they pulled Zhao Changfeng to sit next to Jiang Wenjing. Jiang Wenjing's face was red, and her peers were making trouble, but she didn't speak. Those reporters sat on the other side, looking at Zhao Changfeng and Jiang Wenjing with a smile, and kept muttering. Zhao Changfeng felt that his head was big, beckoned to the princess, asked for a golden mango to open, a reporter threw a box, and said: "See if this can block your mouth!" ”
