Hearing Ling Shijie's confession, Qin Hai didn't feel moved at all, on the contrary, he couldn't help but want to find a place to vomit for a while. Previously, when he heard Guo Qiushi talk about Ling Shijie going to the village to expose the shady scenes of Little Steel, he had some admiration for this reporter in his heart. But this time, seeing him reversing black and white and speaking out loud, Qin Hai's last trace of good impression of him had already been thrown into the toilet and flushed away.

"Reporter Ling, there are no outsiders here, if you say this kind of thing that no one will believe, you don't need to say it again, right?" Qin Hai said in a heartfelt tone.

"What do you mean that no one believes?" Ling Shijie was annoyed, "You don't use the psychology of a bureaucrat to measure a reporter's integrity!" ”

"Don't you think it's a little ridiculous that the word ethics comes out of your mouth?" Qin Hai sneered, "Everyone knows what is going on with Xiaogang in Xingchuan County, including the woman who pretended to be dead in your photo, she is clearly acting, can you see it as a reporter?" The facts are clearly put in front of you, but you want to use the Spring and Autumn penmanship to splash dirty water on the government, in the final analysis, don't you just want to sensationalize? It's not like I haven't seen a reporter like you, what kind of innocence and purity are you pretending to be in front of me? ”

"You...... You get me out! Ling Shijie's face was a little unbearable. It wasn't that he was ashamed that he made up the news, but that no one had ever dared to count him down like this in front of him, which made him extremely annoyed. Qin Hai asked him to meet today, and he readily agreed. In his imagination, Qin Hai must have come to negotiate conditions with him, and he had already made up his mind to take out a little more fierce material from Qin Hai's mouth in the name of negotiation, and then post a blockbuster article again. As for whether Qin Hai would be annoyed and angry after finding out that he had been fooled, he didn't care at all.

Here is also to blame Ling Shijie's homework for not being rigorous enough. After hearing that the on-site commander of the central working group was named Qin Hai, he once made a phone call to a friend who worked in the Economic and Trade Commission to verify Qin Hai's identity. His friend is also a homeless person. casually said that Qin Hai is not a staff member of the Economic and Trade Commission, and it is estimated that he was seconded from somewhere below. After Ling Shijie learned this, he had no respect for this working group, and he didn't take this young deputy leader to heart.

As a reporter who runs social news, Ling Shijie has of course heard of the name of Qin Hai, chairman of Daqin Group, but he has never thought about what the two Qin Hai have to do with each other. Daqin Group's products are mainly industrial materials. It is not closely related to the lives of ordinary people, and there is no need to engage in various public relations activities frequently, so Qin Hai's face is very unfamiliar to most people.

Hearing that Ling Shijie let him out, instead of getting up, Qin Hai leaned back to make himself sit more comfortably on the sofa. He held up two fingers and said, "I'll give you two choices." First, respect the facts and stand firm. Correct the previous false reports, and actively cooperate with the central government's action to rectify small steel. If you and your newspaper are willing to do so, we can make it easy for you and build a long-term relationship. ”

"Hmph." Ling Shijie gave Qin Hai a disdainful answer.

Qin Hai's meaning, Ling Shijie actually understood it, it was nothing more than wanting to make a deal with Ling Shijie. The so-called provision of various conveniences and the establishment of long-term cooperative relations implies that Ling Shijie can offer conditions. As for the aforementioned respect for facts and standing firm, it is a step for Ling Shijie. If Ling Shijie is willing to accept Qin Hai's request for peace. He could put forward some conditions for Qin Hai to meet.

Ling Shijie and the Southern Economic Tribune he works for. And not, as they themselves proclaimed, what a holy white lotus. In the name of public opinion supervision in exchange for various benefits, Ling Shijie himself has done a lot. He has done paid journalism, that is, he takes money from others and sings praises to others; He is better at "paid ignorance", that is, when there is a negative event. Let someone else pay hush money in exchange for not reporting in return.

This time, Ling Shijie pointed the finger at the central working group, and did not have the idea of forcing the other party to provide benefits through negative reports. However, he didn't want to die down so soon. Because it is impossible for the other party to come up with a valuable return. He must continue to report and force the other party to the point where there is no way out, and then the conditions given by the other party will be more "sincere".

With such thoughts, he did not directly reject Qin Hai's suggestion, nor did he show the intention of accepting, but just left Qin Hai with countless suspense with a meaningful "hum".

It's a pity that Qin Hai didn't mean to continue to give in, he nodded and said calmly: "Since Reporter Ling is not interested in the previous plan, it is the second plan." You are bent on distorting the truth and gaining attention by denigrating the normal administrative activities of the State, and you are on the opposite side of the Working Group. If you feel that the working group is weak and can be bullied, then you choose this path. But I remind you that the consequences of being an enemy of us are not something that you and your editor-in-chief can afford. ”

Ling Shijie decided that this was just Qin Hai's bluff, he had experienced this kind of thing too much, and he wouldn't care about it at all. He said proudly: "Deputy Team Leader Qin, I also tell you that you are not the first to greet and threaten and intimidate our newspaper through various channels, and you will not be the last. It is impossible for us to be brought to our knees by such intimidation. ”

"Well, then we don't have anything to talk about." Qin Hai said.

Everything that should be said has been said, and there is no need for Qin Hai to stay any longer. He stood up, said to Ling Shijie, "Do it yourself", and then left the room.

When he came to the hall downstairs, Qin Hai found that Wang Yue, director of the Xingchuan Government Office, was already waiting there. Qin Hai came to meet Ling Shijie, this is a very important thing, Zhang Peng reported to the county government after Qin Hai was downstairs, and Gao Xuejian immediately sent Wang Yue to the hotel to inquire about the news.

"Yo, isn't this Team Leader Qin, when did you come to Xingchuan, why didn't you say hello in advance?" Wang Yue greeted Qin Hai as if he was aware of it.

Qin Hai took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Wang Yue, and after shaking hands with him, he squeezed out a reluctant smile on his face and said: "I also just came to Yanning Province, and I heard that there were some mistakes in the investigation and handling of inferior steel by the working group, and I was criticized by the media, so I came to communicate with the reporter." ”

"Oh, you're saying the reporter lives upstairs?" Wang Yue asked.

Qin Hai didn't bother to expose his disguise, but just responded: "Yes, I also learned that he lives in Xingchuan after I talked to Reporter Ling on the phone. Just now, Xiaofu and I went up to communicate with him. ”

"How's it going, the misunderstanding is all over, right?" Wang Yue asked, his wording was quite clever, directly positioning the contradiction between Qin Hai and Ling Shijie as a misunderstanding, which sounded like exculpating Qin Hai.

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "Reporter Ling insists that there is no problem with his report, it seems that the media still has some incomprehension of the central government's policies, and Director Wang will help us do more explanation work when he is free." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Yue nodded repeatedly. In his mind, it was a different thought. Qin Hai and Ling Shijie couldn't reach a consensus, which was exactly the result that Xingchuan County wanted to see. In Gao Xuejian's opinion, Qin Hai has become Xingchuan's enemy, Ling Shijie was an enemy in the past, and now he is an enemy of his enemy, that is their friend.

Prior to this, Ling Shijie had also gone to the county government to interview Gao Xuejian, and Gao Xuejian said a lot of pun words, which would not make people grasp the handle, and gave Ling Shijie many hints very cleverly. Ling Shijie was able to navigate Xingchuan easily this time, which was also the convenience provided by Gao Xuejian secretly.

"Team Leader Qin, where are you going now?" After chatting about Qin Hai's intentions, Wang Yue continued to ask.

"We have to rush to the checkpoint in Kangtai to find out how we worked some time ago." Qin Hai said.

"Look, it's almost time to eat, why don't you invite Team Leader Qin to the county government for a light meal before leaving?" Wang Yue pretended to invite.

Qin Hai seemed to hesitate for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's too late today, the director is still waiting for me to report on the investigation." Another day, I will definitely visit County Magistrate Gao and Director Wang another day. ”

"Then I won't delay Team Leader Qin's work." Wang Yue responded with kindness.

Under the gaze of Wang Yue and Zhang Peng, Qin Hai and Heizi got into the car they brought and left the hotel. Watching Qin Hai's car go away, Wang Yue took out his mobile phone, dialed Gao Xuejian's phone, and reported: "County magistrate, I saw Qin Hai, he and Ling Shijie had a broken talk, looking at what it means, he is under a lot of pressure." I think he was very polite to me, and I guess he meant to ask us to solve the conflict in the future. ”

In the car, Heizi turned his head to look at the hotel that was getting farther and farther away, and then said to Qin Hai: "Mr. Qin, this Ling reporter is too much of a thing, obviously black and white, and what kind of justice and conscience, I really wanted to give him a few strokes at that time." ”

"I want to beat him too, but no, we're civilized people after all." Qin Hai said.

"It's definitely useless to talk to him about this matter, what are you going to do?" Kuroko asked.

Qin Haidao: "Just listening to the lama cricket singing, let's not farm the land anymore?" Seriously, I don't really care if a newspaper says something. I came to see him to see if there was room for relaxation, but even if he continued to distort the report, it would not change the country's determination. ”

"But it's disgusting after all." Kuroko said indignantly.

Qin Haidao: "I have to find a way to clean up their unscrupulous media, although we do things above board, and we are not afraid of them fanning the flames, but I am not willing to be splashed with dirty water by them like this." ”

"Why don't you leave this to me?" Kuroko said with a fist.

"You?" Qin Hai looked at the sunspot and asked suspiciously, "What can you do?" (To be continued......)
