Chapter 70: 500 Dollars to Buy Trust
Qi Dong wrote a manuscript for the evening newspaper, not for the Hongcheng Metropolis Daily, for the reason, Luo Qianfan speculated that there are three possibilities, the first is that he has a good relationship with Gao Ao; second, he has a bad relationship with Huang Guoqiang; The third type: the manuscript fee or clue fee for the evening newspaper is high.
After meeting, Qi Dong's attitude was very cold, with a deep hatred on his face, his eyes never left the computer, and he didn't look at Luo Qianfan. Luo Qianfan handed over his business card and said, "Officer Qi, I'm sorry, I came to the door without saying hello, and I caused you trouble." β
"Hmm." Qi Dong only hummed, and didn't answer the business card.
Luo Qianfan was so embarrassed that he had to put his business card on Qi Dong's table: "Officer Qi, what's wrong, did you encounter something unpleasant?" β
"No, you also left the business card, let's go." Qi Dong gave an eviction order. Luo Qianfan was even more embarrassed, he had the heart to leave, he felt aggrieved, and said when did I offend you, even if I left, I have to ask to understand.
Luo Qianfan simply pulled a chair and sat down, spread out the words and said: "Officer Qi, I am new to Jietiaokou, I have read many of your articles, and I have made a special trip to visit, you look at you, I said the wrong thing or did the wrong thing, I am grateful for you to let me die to understand." β
"No, I have a withdrawn personality and don't want to make friends with Metropolis Daily." Qi Dong said lightly.
Luo Qianfan listened to what he said and asked, "Do you have an opinion on Hongcheng Metropolis Daily?" Is it because the metropolis newspaper has published an outdated report, or has it made up fake news out of nothing, can you tell me about it? What can I do to make remedies and compensation? If you don't make it clear, I will definitely not leave, and I will not be able to deal with it if I go back in a daze. β
Qi Dong finally took his eyes off the computer screen, looked at Luo Qianfan and said, "Reporter Luo, it has nothing to do with you, I said it, blame me for being withdrawn and don't want to deal with reporters, you can go." β
Luo Qianfan smiled, as long as you pay attention to me, this matter will have a turnaround. "Officer Qi, don't be like this, I've seen it all, you are a big pen, and you have a lot of cooperation with the evening newspaper, since you can cooperate with the evening newspaper, I believe we also have room for cooperation. Even if you have a prejudice against us, you can always make friends with me personally. Here, smoke a cigarette. β
Luo Qianfan handed over a cigarette, Qi Dong hesitated, took it, Luo Qianfan took out the lighter and lit it for him: "Tell me, if you have any anger, you can spread it, I can see it, it must be that we are not doing well, you tell me, we can change it, if we can't change it, I won't bother you." β
Luo Qianfan is not an annoying person, the young man is also very energetic, and his attitude is good, Qi Dong's heart softened, and he leaned back in the chair and was shrouded in smoke: "Brother, I can see that you are a good person, I will tell you the truth, why do I contribute to the evening newspaper, the evening newspaper once gave me a clue fee of 350 yuan for a special edition manuscript of 3500 words, the standard of 1000 words and 100 yuan, and generally a 2000-word manuscript is also 100 yuan." Don't call me greedy for money, I deserve it. β
Luo Qianfan said: "In this case, I will go back and apply, as long as the news value is enough to meet the standard of the 3500 sub-special edition, and it is exclusive, I will strive to give this standard." β
Qi Dong shook his head: "After you listen to me, I can't trust Metropolis Daily, it's no problem to make friends with you, but I won't provide clues or contributions to Metropolis Daily." β
"Why?"
"Because we didn't work together well before."
"Isn't it pleasant to work with Mr. Huang Guoqiang?"
"That's right, Huang Guoqiang owes me the clue fee for two manuscripts now! Last year, he used my manuscript, one was published on July 6 last year, and the other was published on July 7, for two consecutive days, two key manuscripts, I asked him for clue fees, he delayed again and again, and then the two manuscripts took 50 yuan, and I threw them back to him directly. I don't know if he swallowed it himself, or if the newspaper was based on this standard, but I blocked him anyway. I can guarantee that my leads are all valuable, and I write very carefully, and I feel that 50 dollars is an insult to my words. β
The wordsmith has arrogance in his bones, and Luo Qianfan suddenly admired this policeman who made the money clear.
Luo Qianfan asked: "According to the standards of the evening newspaper, how much will they pay for those two manuscripts?" β
"Let's get 400 yuan to say less."
"Okay, I'll give you the money." Luo Qianfan smiled and took out his wallet. There was 500 yuan in his wallet, and he took it all out and handed it to Qi Dong: "I'm sorry Officer Qi, I apologize to you for Hongcheng Metropolis Daily." 400 is counted as a clue fee, and 100 yuan is considered a late fee. β
Qi Dong didn't answer, very surprised, obviously he didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so open-minded: "Brother, although I am short of money, I don't want everything." You are just a young reporter who has just taken up his post, and last year's old accounts are not just turned over, if you give me 500, you will have to pay 500. β
Luo Qianfan said: "That's my business, I'll negotiate with the newspaper when I go back." 500 yuan is not only to repay the newspaper's old accounts, but also to sue Officer SΓΉ Qi, what I promised, the newspaper will not honor it, and I will cash it. Although I am also short of money, but 500 yuan to buy a trust, this transaction is worth it! β
Qi Dong's face gradually softened, and said, "You are different from the surname Huang, okay, I'll accept this money." β
Qi Dong accepted the money and took the initiative to write a receipt to Luo Qianfan and handed it to Luo Qianfan. Luo Qianfan said that there was no need. Qi Dong insisted on letting Luo Qianfan accept it, and said: "The old account is not easy to turn, I will write a receipt to you first, and you can make a voucher when you report to your superiors, if the negotiation fails, I will return 500 yuan to you." β
Luo Qianfan said: "The receipt is not important, I need Officer Qi to support my work, you can rest assured, I will be responsible for every clue I handle in the future, and I will open the clue fee, and the newspaper will not let me out personally." β
Qi Dong was really surprised, he stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Luo Qianfan: "Brother is a bright person, okay, I believe you once, I hope to cooperate happily in the future." I happen to have a clue in my hand, a guy in the bureau has just returned from handling cases in the field and arrested a murderer who has been absconding for three years, and I will give you a manuscript tomorrow. β
Luo Qianfan was very happy: "Look, I really earned it." Not only did you earn your trust, but you also earned a good friend. Officer Qi, there is a place to say a word for your brother. β
β¦β¦
After Luo Qianfan left the Hongdong Public Security Bureau, he went to the four police stations under his jurisdiction to connect with the mouth, interviewed two trivial things, and when he returned to the newspaper office, it was nearly evening, and as soon as he entered the courtyard of the newspaper office, he saw that the "Lei Feng hat" was busy with work.
Lu Ming took a wrench and pliers, and was pouting his butt in the carport to "repair" his broken 28-bar bicycle. He wanted to remove the car lock, but he couldn't do it with all his might, so he threw a wrench and pliers and scolded him: "Who the is nosy and locks Lao Tzu's car?" β
Luo Qianfan almost laughed, and leaned over with a sympathetic expression: "Director Lu, why don't you go home on such a cold day, what are you busy with?" The car broke down? β
Lu Ming rolled his eyes and looked at him: "See who locked my car?" β
Luo Qianfan shook his head: "I didn't see it." By the way, Director, I have a clue fee to report to you, do you have time? β
"Go, go, I'll talk about it tomorrow, I don't see I'm annoyed."
"Okay, director, you're busy, I'll go upstairs first......" Entering the elevator, Luo Qianfan couldn't help laughing in the mirror.
β¦β¦
At eight o'clock in the evening, Hu Feifei waited for a manuscript sent by the reporter of the evening newspaper arrogantly: "The police captured 'Spider-Man' at night", 1,800 words, which can send half a page. At the same time, a photograph of two plainclothes escorting a suspect was sent.
The general content of the manuscript is that the police of the Hongdong Public Security Bureau squatted for two consecutive nights and finally caught the thief who climbed into the house. The manuscript is extremely vivid and very vivid. The manuscript is signed: "Correspondent Hu Shui Reporter is arrogant". Hu Fei's name is followed by a parentheses, noting the mobile phone number.
In addition to the manuscript, Hu Feifei wrote a short email: "Feifei, I'm really sorry for yesterday's incident, this manuscript should be an apology, and I really hope to have a good sister on the road of journalism." Another: Correspondent Hu Shui is a propaganda officer in Hongnan District, you can call him to confirm the details of the manuscript. Remember to make sure that the press release is written in black and white, and there must be no mistakes. β
Hu Feifei was particularly moved when she read the short post: "It's really arrogant, people's names are arrogant, but whether it is speech, demeanor, and professionalism, they are far above themselves, and it is a great honor to make such a friend." β
Hu Feifei deliberately asked Luo Qianfan to sigh, and praised Gao Hao in her words: "Look, Gao Hao fulfilled his promise and really passed me a manuscript." This person is really good, with a good personality, good popularity, dedication, and trustworthiness! β
"Really?" Luo Qianfan was skeptical, and looked for the manuscript. At first glance, I couldn't help but praise it, "It's indeed a good draft!" But suddenly, Luo Qianfan found a problem: "Feifei, it's not right! There is a problem with the picture accompanying the arrest scene. β
"What's the problem?" Hu Feifei was inexplicable, and hurriedly looked at the picture of the arrest scene, and found no problem: "What did you see and was shocked, what's wrong with the picture?" β
Luo Qianfan said: "I have seen this photo, and I saw it in the reading room yesterday. It's not plainclothes police arresting suspects at all, it's not the police who detain people, it's two lawbreakers who take away an ordinary person, it's what happened in the field, Fei Fei, Gao Hao may be playing you. β
