There are concrete paths that lead directly to the households.

The roads here are all built with the government's policy funds to connect villages to roads, and they are still very durable after many years.

At the end of the road, park the car on the side of the road and walk a few steps to Zhong Manman's home.

The two-storey brick house, complete with household appliances and furniture, clean and tidy, looks like a well-off home, and is not as depressed as imagined.

Zhong Manman's mother's wheelchair is not only electric, but also can climb stairs, which is extremely advanced.

She controlled the electric wheelchair, skillfully cleaned up the scattered items in the house, and smiled at Xu Xin: "Usually I am alone, there is a little chaos at home, please take a seat." ”

It can be seen that she is a little flustered, worried about embarrassing Zhong Manman.

They are simple and welcoming, and always have a sincere smile on their faces when facing guests.

"Drink water." Zhong Manman is very familiar with Xu Xin, but this time she was able to rush home in time, thanks to Xu Xin's help, she is grateful.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm, and my mother was fine.

Xu Xin took the warm water handed over by Zhong Manman, "Thank you." ”

"Manman, you go and catch those two big geese in the backyard." Zhong Manman's mother instructed.

Zhong Manman and Zhong Manqian began to prepare lunch, Xu Xin couldn't help, just swayed at the door, looking at the green mountains in the distance, breathing in the clear air unique to the mountains, and feeling comfortable.

This small village is located on a high mountain, and there are not many residents, so it is rare to see people.

I heard that Zhong Manman brought a man back, the small village exploded, the old people and children gathered at the door of Zhong Manman's house, and the young people basically went to the county town under the mountain to do business and work, and they would only come once in ten days and half a month.

They stood on top of the courtyard dam, staring at Xu Xin, their eyes full of curiosity.

"This guy is tall and strong, he looks like he is from the city, and he has a lot of strength, it's a pity not to resist Bud Valley."

"Manman has a future, bring back such a strong man, he doesn't need oxen to plow the land in the future, he can do it alone."

"Their family has a pillar."

……

These elderly grandparents made a professional evaluation of Xu Xin from their own perspective.

When Xu Xin's eyes turned to their side, they all covered their mouths and snickered embarrassedly.

Xu Xin came to this small mountain village and brought a touch of joy.

"Grandparents, let's come in and have lunch together, there are a lot of meals." After Zhong Manman was busy with lunch, he came out to greet the neighbors and villagers to eat together.

"No, no, no......" These people who watched the excitement saw that other people's houses were going to have lunch, and they all went home.

On the dinner table, a large pot of stewed goose meat is slowly fragrant.

Except for Xu Xin, the people at the table were all Zhong Manman's relatives.

Xu Xin was warmly welcomed, and originally planned to return to Xingfu City directly after lunch, but Zhong Manman said that he would leave tomorrow and invited Xu Xin to stay for one night and wait for her.

Early the next morning, almost the whole village came to say goodbye, and even some grandmothers gave him eggs laid by local chickens, as well as various fruits and vegetables.

Xu Xin was embarrassed, waved his hand, and drove away from the small village.

He didn't do much to help the whole time, and when he returned, there was a lot more organic food in the trunk.

"Don't worry, your mother is home alone, what should I do with food?" Xu Xin asked with concern.

Zhong Manman felt this problem, and when he looked back at his mother's waving posture, his nose became sour.

"She has always been able to take care of herself, but sometimes she can't be idle, so she has to work in the fields and grow some vegetables. When she was in the market, she was also able to go to the street to buy things. Every month, poverty alleviation cadres also send rice, oil, meat and other daily necessities, which are not used up. ”

"In that case, it's fine." Xu Xin drove cautiously on the road, not daring to be distracted at all, and the right side of the road was a cliff.

"Thank you." Zhong Manman said sincerely.

"I didn't help much." Xu Xin originally planned to help as much as he could, even if he gave some money, but they didn't need such help.

The car finally went down to the foot of the mountain and drove onto the country road, Xu Xin's tense heartstrings finally relaxed, and his brain became lively, "Didn't you say that you wanted to give me an interview, you arrange a time, and I will cooperate with you to work." ”

"Really?"

When Zhong Manman heard the news, he instantly dispelled the sorrow of parting, and almost jumped up excitedly, but soon calmed down, "Are you pitying me for doing this?" ”

"A little." Xu Xin does not deny it, "But it's not all the reasons, I have my considerations and plans." If you want to use me as a person to pay public attention and make programs for Black Gold Satellite TV, the starting point is also for the ratings, and the ratings can also be exchanged for money. ”

"Do you want to collect money?" When Zhong Manman heard the talk about money, he couldn't help but touch his dry pocket.

"It's not about collecting money, I want you to add more of our eternal advertisements when you are interviewed, and there will be close-ups of trademarks, stores, exquisite jewelry and other elements."

Xu Xin recently talked to Wu Chuchu, except for the happiness city Xu You Eternal Jewelry Store can achieve profitability, other stores have not opened the market so far and have not been recognized by consumers.

In the final analysis, it is still the brand that is not good, and new things are always easy to be questioned.

Moreover, the shops in the provincial capital are located in the most prosperous area of the city center, with luxurious decoration and wide stores, surrounded by the stores of major well-known jewelry brands in the country.

It is equivalent to directly entering the enemy group and participating in the competition in the jewelry market.

This is a strategic stronghold, and it must be taken.

In order to ensure that the opening can be an instant hit, the official opening has not been officially opened for a long time, and various publicity plans are still being brewed.

"I have to tell Editor Shu about this, I can't be the master." Zhong Manman has some six gods and no masters, and this matter is beyond the scope of his authority.

"Of course, you make it clear to the unit as soon as possible, and we'd better sign an agreement between the two sides."

"Then let's go directly to the provincial capital, you can talk to Editor Shu face-to-face."

More than five hours later, Xu Xin sat in the office of Shu Linfang, deputy editor-in-chief of Black Gold Satellite TV. Zhong Manman's big black eyes blinked, a little overwhelmed.

"You've agreed to give us an interview?" Shu Linfang was very happy, and motioned to Zhong Manman: "There is tea under the table, you go and make a cup of tea for Xu Xin." ”

In Zhong Manman's kung fu of making tea, Shu Linfang couldn't help but sigh, "You may not know how hot your name is on the Internet now." It has become a hot search term.

The label of young rich is enough to attract people's attention. ”

Xu Xin didn't specifically find out how many fabricated reports about himself were there, but he also saw discussions about himself in some forums, which were more or less surprising and more frightening.

He didn't know what the consequences would be if he made his appearance and identity known.

There may be a lot of people who come to visit, and they will be overwhelmed;

may be able to gain popularity through exposure, and by the way, build your eternal brand out, so as to monetize traffic;

Maybe there will be a lot of abuse in the future, and even family members will be implicated;

Maybe it's too high-profile, it invites jealousy and danger......

He had many ideas in his mind, but it didn't happen, and no one knew how it would turn out.

Before that, he refused to expose his privacy, lived a simple life, just like his parents, quite content.

After seeing Zhong Manman's family and life experience, he suddenly changed his mind, wanting to meet Zhong Manman's requirements, and at the same time trying to appear in front of the media, until everyone saw through that there was nothing special about him, and the mystery on his body was gone, and everyone's enthusiasm faded.

"Black Gold Satellite TV has always given me a very official and stereotypical impression, but I didn't expect you to also pay attention to this kind of lace, or people's livelihood news." Xu Xin chatted casually.

Shu Linfang sighed slightly: "I have worked in this industry for 30 years and have seen the rise and fall of the media industry. Many traditional media are on the verge of death, not to mention paper media, and traditional TV media like us now don't have much traffic.

The country's TV media are basically losing money year after year, and many of them have changed their thinking, moved closer to the mobile Internet, and grabbed traffic with those self-media.

We have a professional team, if you really work the mobile Internet, in fact, there is a great advantage, can make more eye-catching content.

Change yourself in order to survive. ”

"It's not easy." Xu Xin was moved.

"You're young, and you're old-fashioned." Shu Linfang saw Zhong Manman make tea and put it in front of everyone, and preached back to business: "If we do an interview for you, do you have any scruples or questions that can't be asked?" ”

"Nope." Since Xu Xin wants to satisfy the mentality of many netizens watching the excitement, he has nothing to hide.

"Okay, then let's prepare, the main content of the interview is the topic that many netizens on the Internet are concerned about, before the interview, we will also show you the questions first, have a preparation." Shu Linfang is also an expert in this area.

"No problem." Xu Xin didn't talk nonsense, and directly put forward his own requirements, "I have two requirements, first, I hope that Zhong Manman will be the host......"

"Zhong Manman can't do it, she's just an intern and doesn't have any experience, we need a host with high professionalism to be competent."

Shu Linfang directly refuted Xu Xin's proposal, "As you can see, we have sent a team to track and shoot a documentary on diamond prospecting, and we attach great importance to the news materials in this area and have invested a lot of money."

You are also the owner of the diamond prospecting project, and interviewing you is also a news topic that we attach great importance to, and can connect the previous and the next, and then uncover many mysteries of the mineral industry.

Our director attaches great importance to the topic of your body, and for your interview, it will be put on various platforms in an all-round way, and the publicity will be very strong!

We just want to achieve the level of topic explosion, and we can definitely increase the traffic of our satellite TV in one fell swoop......"

As she spoke, she noticed that Xu Xin's face was not quite right.

"You move on to the second request." She was used to this kind of aggressive approach, but in front of Xu Xin, a young man, she actually learned from the other party to calm down and forcibly accepted the words behind her.

Xu Xin took the hot tea and blew it gently, took a sip carefully, and said unhurriedly: "The second request, I hope to place the location of the interview in our Xu You Eternal Jewelry store. ”

"Advertise your store?" Shu Linfang understood it.

"Yes, you have to give us a close-up of your timeless brand logo."

The so-called Xu You eternal trademark is actually Xu Xin's avatar, Wu Chuchu did not ask Xu Xin's opinion when he chose the trademark pattern, Xu Xin later felt that Wu Chuchu's decision on the trademark was too hasty.

"If you plan to advertise on our satellite TV, I am very welcome and can give you a very good price."

"No, I'm not going to give you a penny." Xu Xin's tone was firm.

"You ......" Shu Linfang suddenly felt that Xu Xin, a young man, was difficult to deal with, and he was not as easy to get along with as he imagined, "If you do this, I have to discuss it with the director, this is not in line with our consistent principles." ”

"I just have two requests, no more, no less."

Xu Xin's tone was firm, and it seemed that he would not change or make concessions.

He held the teacup and blew the hot air slowly.

"The first request is okay, but the second request ......"

Shu Linfang saw Xu Xin's expression and sighed helplessly, "You wait first, I'll go and discuss it with the director." ”

As she spoke, she stood up and walked outside.

After a while, she came back and said regretfully: "I'm sorry, our director said that we can't agree to your request." ”

The hot tea in Xu Xin's hand hadn't been cooled yet, and he hadn't drunk it, as soon as he heard this, he put down the teacup and was in no mood to continue drinking, "Forget it, if you have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, let's talk about it." ”

He stood up and apologized to Zhong Manman: "If you still want to go back to Xingfu City and return to the mining industry in the book, I will go with you, now the company is developing rapidly, and there is indeed a shortage of talents." ”

Zhong Manman could feel the tense atmosphere of the collapse of the talks between Shu Linfang and Xu Xin, caught in the middle, and didn't know how to make a decision at all.

After listening to Xu Xin's words, she didn't even hear that Xu Xin was inviting her to work in Shushu Mining.

"Oh, I'll go back with you." She also thought that as usual, she would squat in the book and take a video record occasionally.

"Our satellite TV has a lot of publicity channels in Heijin Province and even the whole country, if you miss it, you may not have such a good exposure opportunity in the future." Shu Linfang is still arguing with reason.

"If it needs to be exposed, there may be a lot of media willing to give me a chance, to tell you the truth, the media that recently contacted our company and wanted to know my personal information were endless, and those who refused were numb." Xu Xin responded politely.

"Our satellite TV is an orthodox media, and the content of the report is absolutely true and reliable, and will never distort the facts. If you give interviews to some bad media, some of whom are good at taking quotes out of context, then your reputation will not be easy to control. ”

"Thank you editor Shu for your kind reminder, this tea is good."

Xu Xin stood up, waved his hand, and walked outside the office.

Since he has no interests, if it is just for the sake of fame, he is not very happy to expose his privacy.

Now, it's good that I'm busy with mine construction and occasionally set up new exploration projects.

"Wait!"

Just as Xu Xin walked to the door, Shu Linfang stood up and shouted.

"What's wrong?" Xu Xin turned around.

"I'll fight with the director again, and you can rest for a while."

Shu Linfang hurriedly walked out, and returned a few minutes later, some beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, "Our director agreed to your request." However, can you promise us that we will not be interviewed by other media in the near future, and let us have an exclusive interview? ”

"Yes." Xu Xin didn't think much about it and agreed directly.

"Great!"

Shu Linfang's brows stretched, "Then when do you have time, come to our studio to do an interview." ”

"Not in the studio, in our Forever Jewelry store, not far from your TV building, the date will be on May 2nd in two days." Xu Xin had a plan.

"It's a bit of a rush." Shu Linfang frowned slightly.

"In addition, let me tell you in advance, Ma Xin will also appear in the Xu You Eternal store at that time to meet and sign autographs for fans."

"Is it the child star Ma Xin? Did you invite Ma Xin to participate in the ribbon-cutting event? Shu Linfang was pleasantly surprised.

No matter what the news, connecting with popular celebrities can always greatly increase traffic.

"It is indeed the well-known Ma Xin, you can send a message on the official account appropriately to let everyone know Ma Xin's itinerary."

"Okay, so this interview is even more topical."

The two sides sat down again and discussed the specific arrangements.

On the same day, Xu Xin returned to Xingfu City alone, contacted Ma Xin and Zhao Tianni, and watched their rehearsals in a dance studio they rented.

On May Day, Xingfu City, a small city that was not prosperous, became crowded.

People from all over the province and even outside the province came here to participate in the grand May Day national activities, singing and dancing, a joyful scene.
