Chapter 177: Development (1)

After Li Jie and Huang Wei finished speaking, they began to ask questions from reporters.

Because they are both peers, Li Jie and Huang Wei are also well-known in the Shanghai press circles, and they are beautiful and have an elegant temperament, so the questions raised by the reporters are very civilized and take care of the interests of their colleagues. Therefore, the reporter's questions went smoothly, and there were questions and answers.

Towards the end of the day, the reporter of the "News" also went to Xi'an with Li Jie and Huang Wei to interview, raised his hand and said: "Miss Li Jie and Miss Huang Wei, I went to Xi'an with the two of you to interview, and witnessed the Red Army's measures to develop people's livelihood and improve the lives of ordinary people in Xi'an. Objectively speaking, your reports are true. The Red Army we saw was indeed genuinely thinking about the common people. Just now, you have already explained why you went to interview Liu Yimin, commander of the Red Army Corps for the second time, and what you said is also very clear, and I also believe it. But I have a question for Miss Huang Wei, that is, didn't you continue to interview Liu Yimin because you had a good impression of him and wanted to communicate further? Please be honest. ”

This question seems to be acute, but it is actually the usual method used by commercial newspapers in that era to attract readers, just like when Liu Yimin held a press conference in Chengdu, a reporter asked Liu Yimin if he had suitors, it was just a gimmick.

According to Li Jie and Huang Wei's discussion in advance, at this time, they should directly answer the question that there is no good impression of Liu Yimin, and the second interview is purely to be responsible to the readers, to clarify the problem, and to maintain the professional ethics of journalists.

To Li Jie's surprise, Huang Wei was in a mess at this time.

This Huang Wei's family is an overseas Chinese in Indonesia, her father is a rubber plantation owner, and she was sent to the United States to study since she was a child. In the 30s, Shanghai was the most prosperous city in Asia, so after graduating from the United States, Huang Wei returned to Shanghai to find a job as a journalist. However, at that time, Shanghai was a paradise for adventurers. Most of the people I came into contact with were flies and dogs, and few of them had the spirit of fighting for their ideals like the Red Army soldiers. This girl, like a boy, is more sensitive when it's time to find a partner, and it's easy to think about it. What's more, Huang Wei received a Western-style education, and there were few wariness of the Kuomintang and [***] as enemies of each other in her mind. Hearing the reporter's question, my mind involuntarily remembered the majestic and upright figure, the black jewel-like eyes, the beautiful voice full of magnetic surnames, and the logical and wise language. He already has a wife. Besides, he's so good, I, how can I be worthy of him. ”

As soon as Huang Wei said this, the atmosphere at the press conference became enthusiastic.

In those days, it was not easy to be a journalist, in order to survive, there was no news and wanted to make news, and small news wanted to make big news, and I wanted to create a sensation every day. In addition, there are many concessions in Shanghai, and most reporters are not afraid of the control measures of the national political axe at all, so it is a big deal to hide in the concessions. Therefore, the reporters were very bold at that time. The reason why so many reporters came to this press conference was that in addition to the reason why Li Jie and Huang Wei were peers and beauties, the highlight was that the female reporter went deep into the red zone to interview and was framed by people with ulterior motives. The press conference was about to end, and some reporters were ready to leave. As soon as Huang Wei's words came out, these elite-like reporters immediately realized that a bigger attraction had appeared, that is, the beautiful reporter liked the Red Army generals. As a result, these reporters raised their hands and asked to speak. Those who couldn't get their turn behind began to squeeze forward, and the scene got out of control.

The host invited by Li Jie and Huang Wei couldn't finish the show as soon as they saw it, so they hastily announced that the press conference was over, and pulled Li Jie and Huang Wei to leave the venue quickly. followed by a group of reporters who kept chasing and asking: "Miss Huang Wei, are you sure you like Liu Yimin?" "Miss Li Jie, do you also have a good impression of Liu Yimin?" "Miss Huang Wei, can you describe to us what your ideal lover looks like?" "Miss Li Jie, does Liu Yimin meet your criteria for choosing a mate?" "Miss Huang Wei, how tall is Liu Yimin, how old is he, where does he live, and what school did he graduate from?" "Miss Li Jie, where is Liu Yimin's wife from, is she as beautiful as you? Are you sure you can beat her? "Blah blah, bla

It wasn't until Li Jie and Huang Wei fled into the bus that the reporters stopped chasing and asking questions.

The next day, the headlines of the major newspapers in Shanghai were basically "Female Reporter Went Deep into the Red Zone to Cover Stories and Was Framed by People with Ulterior Motives," "Beautiful Reporter Loves Red Army Heroes," and so on.

After Li Jie and Huang Wei fled the press conference, they returned to Huang Wei's home in Shanghai. Neither of them expected the press conference to end like this, and they were dejected.

The more Huang Wei thought about it, the more angry she became with herself, and she couldn't help but cry in a low voice.

Li Jie's own surname was anxious, and when she saw Huang Wei crying, she couldn't help but say: "Miss, beauty, talent, don't cry." Who made you play abnormally on the spot and talk about it? Well, the two of us have completely become celebrities on the beach, and tomorrow's spittle and star drowning can drown us. I really can't see that the usually gentle and elegant Huang Dacai girl can't help but confide in front of reporters. It seems that our talented woman Huang Dacai is emotional, and it's time to find a partner. ”

Huang Wei listened to Li Jie's words, raised her tearful face, and retorted: "That's not because of you? If you hadn't dragged me to do a second interview, where would it have happened? Along the way, when you open your mouth and close your mouth, it is Liu Yimin, and when you hear it, people have a lot of rice in their heads, and they can't help but think of him. ”

Li Jie immediately said: "Huang Dacai, please don't be confused, okay, you begged me to do the second interview, why did I have to drag you there?" Would it be okay to be reasonable? ”

Huang Wei thought about it, she was indeed going by herself, but she couldn't help but mutter: "Even if I beg you to go, don't you have a good impression of him?" Look at the excitement you look like when you come back from the interview, the Chinese gentleman who opens his mouth and closes his mouth, like that, fools know what you think. ”

Li Jie smiled angrily, and only after laughing did he say, "Forget it, I don't care about you." The two of us are stupid here, others may not have us in their hearts, and you didn't see how unwilling he was to see us that day. I kept watching and found that he didn't really look at us at all. It is very likely that if you are standing in front of him now, he will not know you if you don't explain it clearly. Take pity on your beauty that captivates the country and the city. ”

Saying this, Huang Wei couldn't help but sobbed again.

Crying is crying, making trouble is making trouble, and the things in front of you have to be dealt with, right? The result of the final discussion between the two was that regardless of him, let those boring reporters toss, which was tantamount to propaganda of the Red Army in disguise, and it could be regarded as helping him.

As for whether this incident will cause harm to Liu Yimin himself and make him punished, the two female reporters have not thought about it. Because they are not deeply involved in the world, they don't understand what political struggle is, and they don't have that string in their heads.

After discussing, the two of them jointly sent a telegram to Liu Yimin and entrusted a newspaper in Xi'an to transfer it on their behalf. The main content of the content is to apologize to Liu Yimin, express deep apologies for the negative effect caused to Liu Yimin because of their interview, and say that he will definitely use the pen in his hand to write more drafts to publicize the Red Army, so that foreigners can correctly understand the Red Army.

At this time, Liu Yimin, the actor of this incident, was inspecting Ni Hua's goods sent from the United States at the Longmen Ferry in Hancheng to greet the technicians and air force instructors recruited from the United States.

After Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan reported the truth of the reporter's interview incident to the Central Committee, they were relieved to see that Tang Xingying had seen this matter so thoroughly. After Cai Zhong, Qian Zhuangfei, and Hu Di reported on the secret search and arrest of Xi'an and made a decision on how to deal with some problems, they went back to the Red Army University to attend classes, and were soon dragged by Chen Yun and Li Fuchun to Hancheng to accept equipment and welcome recruiters. As for the article written by Jingjing and the incident caused by Shanghai, he didn't know at all.

Comrade Chen Yun was indeed safe and reliable, and so much equipment and personnel were transported back from the port of Tianjin in the name of Shanxi Industrial Company. It seems that although Chiang Kai-shek encircled, suppressed, and arrested every year, the underground forces of our party are still very strong.

Lots of equipment and a whole day in wooden boats at the ferry. After Liu Yimin read it, it was the same as the list listed in Ni Hua's telegram, mainly a rifle production line, an artillery production line, a bullet production line, an artillery shell production line, the equipment of a gunpowder factory, and the equipment of a small steel plant and the supporting power plant equipment. The steel plant uses electric arc furnace equipment that can make special steel.

After inspecting the equipment, I met with the hired technicians.

This time, Ni Hua recruited not only military talents, but also technical personnel and skilled workers in mining, smelting, electric power, oil refining, machinery and other specialties, a total of 35. What made Liu Yimin happiest was that there were six air force instructors and ground technicians.

Although Liu Yimin was a high-achieving student in a prestigious school before the crossing, he had only learned some space physics courses, and he had never practiced specific aviation flights. Now with these people, it will be possible to immediately open a course in aviation at the University of the Red Army. As soon as you have an airplane, you can quickly start training.

Standing in front of these American technical talents, Liu Yimin was a little excited, think about it, immediately build a steel plant and a power plant, smelt steel, and then produce weapons and ammunition, which is a groundbreaking thing in the history of the Red Army. As long as everything goes well, with Zeng Zhao's level and the ability of these technicians, he can guide a little bit by himself, and any sniper rifle and bazooka can be produced. At that time, apart from the superiority of the air force and navy, the infantry would have no superiority in front of the Red Army. As long as the all-out war of resistance starts, it won't be long before I know that I have met his grandfather, and there is no place to cry.
