Why do people do something that they are willing to do, knowing that it is dangerous, or even knowing that it may cost them their lives? Even people who are usually cowardly can burst out with the strength to not be afraid of death in some extreme environment.

The question is complex.

Because genetically, if a race wants to perpetuate, it will imprint the fear of death into its DNA.

However, whether in the West or in the East, there are people who can put their lives on the line.

The difference is that in the East, such people are more likely to exist in the collective, while in the West, they are more individual.

This is probably the difference between continental civilization and maritime civilization, of course, if you want to put it more bluntly, it is the difference between agricultural civilization and pirate civilization.

In the era when technology was not so advanced, robbery on the sea was a real business with your head tied to your belt.

The picture is the excitement of having wine today and getting drunk today, and worrying tomorrow and worrying tomorrow.

Of course, there are many explanations in modern times.

For example, the East will attribute this fear of death to a belief and spirit, while the West usually summarizes everything in terms of Maslow's system of needs.

To put it simply, after solving the problem of food and clothing, people should begin to pursue self-realization in order to obtain spiritual satisfaction.

There is no doubt that Chris Roddy, a journalist, is not only well-fed, but also adventurous.

For example, it can be seen from his various remarks on online social media that he is not willing to be an unknown reporter. His idols were Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein.

This is often the case in the journalist profession, if you can do a big vote and not die, you can gain both fame and fortune.

And now the opportunity is in front of Chris Roddy.

……

"Jack, I've got big news!" Chris Roddy rushed straight into the office of the head of the Department of Public Information.

"Alright, Chris, be steady." Jack Sterl, the supervisor who was working at the desk, raised his head, glanced at the reckless young man from above his presbyopia, and scolded him with dissatisfaction.

Actually, Jack Stehr likes Chris Roddy very much.

Whenever he saw this energetic guy, it was as if he saw what he was like when he was younger.

They all have the same ideals and passions.

Unfortunately, later he got married and had children.

Since then, he has understood a truth, heroes can not only stand in the light, but also stand there naked, and naturally, the dream of the former hero will be extinguished.

But as a man who grew up watching Kryptonian Superman, how can he not have a heroic dream?!

Chris Roddy, who is still young and has heroic dreams, has become a kind of sustenance in his soul.

Sometimes it's just so strange how people perceive people.

If a certain point is online, it will burst out with a series of emotions such as appreciation and favorability, or if a certain point is not online, it will become disgusted and annoying.

In this regard, Chris Roddy is lucky.

In his first job, he had a direct supervisor who appreciated him.

If all goes well, he may have a chance to become a new Pulitzer Prize winner.

"No, Jack, you don't know, this time it's really big news, and it involves Langley, so I didn't dare to email you, you can see first."

Chris Roddy got up to Jack Sterl's computer and plugged the USB flash drive he had prepared directly into the computer.

Then he picked up the headphones on the table and handed them over.

Jack Stehl gave Chris Roddy a cautious look, and the sentence related to Langley made him realize the sensitivity of the news. Then I put on my headphones and listened.

"Also, look at it with this illustration." Chris Roddy picked up the mouse and clicked on the comic book.

A moment later, Jack Sterr's eyes lit up.

Yes, this is big news.

It is also intertwined with recent facts.

Not so much as the recent events of the Swedish Academy of Sciences, but in fact the discussion of the feud between the José Prize in the Natural Sciences and the Clafford Prize has focused on Europe. On the mainland side of the United States, it is mainly the academic community that cares about these things, and the general public has not had time to pay attention to this matter.

On the one hand, the Clafford Award has little influence among the general public, and on the other hand, it has now entered a critical juncture of something more important, and both sides are desperately spending money to buy various media exposure opportunities to fight in the ring.

The vast majority of people's attention has been attracted by all kinds of explosive rhetoric on both sides, and they really don't have the energy to pay attention to anything else.

Therefore, the reason why this news hit the breaking point is that the public has recently reacted to the sudden resignation of the former head of Langley, and then turned around and stood on the other side of the former employer, uncovering a shocking conspiracy, but it is still fermenting among the people.

So when these audios and cartoons are exposed, and some of the things that the new head of Langley has done are fully exposed, what will be the reaction of the general public?

Thinking of this, Jack Sterl took a deep breath, his eyes lit up, and then he hesitated.

The news is indeed big news, especially from their standpoint, and it is still good news.

At least for former Langley head Roman Wiley, who has resigned, it's definitely the best news, not one of them.

The only problem is the danger involved.

After all, this involves the current head of Langley.

Although only the acting director.

On top of that, from the recording just now, it can be heard that the current head of Langley doesn't seem to be that fond of following the rules.

As a veteran journalist who has been in the news industry for 30 years, Jack Stehl certainly knows that once those people don't plan to be reasonable, they can really do anything, especially at this juncture.

Most importantly, he knows very well what it is to be a person who likes to talk about values when he has nothing to do.

Finally, after listening to everything, Jack Sterl looked up at Chris Roddy with an excited face, until a suspicious look appeared on that young face, and then asked seriously: "Chris, tell me, you've seen the movie Grim Reaper is coming, right?" ”

"Of course!" Chris Roddy replied, and then reacted, looking equally serious: "I know some things are scary, but someone has to do everything." If I don't do it, there will be someone else, won't it? ”

"Okay, so tell me, where did these things come about?"

"Someone sent it directly to my mailbox."

"Who? How did he know your email? ”

"I don't know. I've come to you after reading this, Jack, help me. I don't care about the danger, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen this line! I just hope to be on the news at 8 o'clock tonight, we can make a series, and there will be a story in the follow-up, this news will definitely explode! Believe me! ”

Jack Stehl took a deep breath.

Well, of course he knew that the news was going to go viral!

In fact, any news with a behind-the-scenes label has the potential to explode, not to mention that this time it also involves Langley, who is at the center of the discussion.

If it is transmitted to the side of the traditional allies, it will probably be even more popular.

After all, when it comes to the Nobel Prize jury body, many ordinary people there have an almost paranoid respect for Nobel laureates over there.

Langley's acting director threatened the head of the world's top academic institution with his values, and it was also exposed, how much chaos could be made, Jack Stehl didn't dare to think. The most important thing is that the person in charge also chose to withdraw directly from the biosphere and silently carried everything.

"Let me ask you again, are you really ready for everything?" Jack Sterl asked, looking seriously at the young face.

"Of course, Jack! In fact, I was ready for this and waited for this opportunity! Not only do I want to do this feature, but I also have to find a way to investigate more information! But first I'm going to prove myself! Jack, I know it can be dangerous, but even just a quiet study in school can be dangerous, but at least I graduated safely. So there's really nothing to be afraid of, right? ”

Jack Stehl couldn't refute this for a while, and even suddenly felt a little worried about his son, who was still in elementary school.

So he glared at Chris Roddy with a little annoyance, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, Chris, I'll help you fight for eight o'clock tonight, as for whether it can appear tomorrow, it depends on today's feedback." Of course, I'm not sure right now, maybe it was some other time, but you don't think that just a little bit of content can sustain an entire primetime special news slot, right? ”

"Thank you, Jack, really, you are the best boss! Don't worry, I'm going to prepare the materials and make sure to submit them at 5 p.m. Chris Roddy said excitedly.

"I'm not the boss, the boss is upstairs, you get out of my office." Jack Sterl had to correct himself.

"In my heart you are." Before Chris Roddy left the office, he whistled and emphasized again.

Lovely and energetic young man......

……

Jack Stehr proved to be a reliable leader.

Or that there is no need to doubt the journalistic sensitivity of a journalist who has been in office for decades.

Not only can you judge the news value, but you can also accurately judge whether this thing can be said to be on the air.

There's a lot of subtlety involved.

For example, anyone who has passed the age of forty should understand that there is never absolute freedom in this world, only the freedom to be allowed. As for those who are beyond this age and still do not understand this truth, they are not in the circle of Jack Sterl's daily interactions at all, and he cannot touch them at all, let alone understand the brain circuits of these people.

Therefore, being able to judge what news can be broadcast at key times is a manifestation of professional experience and sensitivity.

Chris Roddy's materials, combined with the materials he had spent an afternoon preparing, were quickly reviewed, and he met with the audience at eight o'clock sharp.

“…… Today I am going to tell a sensational story to my friends who follow us, which may seem unrelated to each of us, but it is closely related......"

It turns out that Chris Roddy is indeed ready for everything, just waiting for an opportunity to soar.

You know, not every journalist has the opportunity to come to the front of the stage and host a news program.

Each TV program has a special host to do this.

Fortunately, Chris Roddy has good appearance, good eloquence and extremely strong heart or faith, which makes him perform very well in front of the camera.

Of course, even if there are reasons of one kind or another, in addition to these, and because Chris Roddy has the experience of often appearing in the camera in expatriate work, otherwise this opportunity would not have been his turn today.

Maybe it wouldn't even reach his mailbox at all.

This also shows once again that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared.

The effect is indeed obvious, when the director told Chris Roddy, who was sitting in the live broadcast room, that everything was over, and that it was done very well, the studio had already opened champagne for this brave young man.

Everyone is very sure that if this young man can survive this hurdle, Fu Mousi will have another star-level host.

The people who can be here are very experienced, and they can see that Chris Roddy in front of the camera really fits perfectly with the imagination of heroes in the minds of ordinary people.

You must know that in this country, the vast majority of people grew up watching superhero type movies, and people really like this kind of fearless personal heroism.

"Haha, you know what? Chris, what did I say before? I knew that I could always trust a young man like you, and you would definitely succeed. As soon as he walked out of the studio, veteran director Frank patted Chris Roddy on the shoulder and said.

Chris Roddy smiled shyly, of course he knew that the director had said the same thing to every young person in the station, it was no secret, but he still asked expectantly: "Did the show work well today?" ”

"Ha, needless to say, the effect is so good that it explodes! You don't know that the hotline in the background has never stopped at all! The audience is not only paying attention to this, but also to you. Someone has even called to ask if you are the new host that the station is going to launch in the near future. You know? I'm already starting to envy it. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Frank." Chris Roddy thanked him reservedly, but was satisfied.

Although there may be an element of exaggeration in this statement, it is certainly not too exaggerated.

The ratings can't come out so quickly, but the popularity of the backstage audience's telephone communication can be known by asking a random person. And he will take the initiative to give back, so there is no need to lie to him.

"Haha, no thanks, you deserve it. We can all see how hard you work, but can the news channel reveal it this time? ”

"I promised the other party, I can't reveal it."

"Haha, it's okay, I'll just ask."

……

Chris Roddy is indeed on fire.

You don't even need to ask for those background phone data, as long as you open the network, you can see it intuitively.

The 8 p.m. news commentary program has exploded on various websites and forums.

Facebook, Twitter, Quora, TikTok, Tok......

In various public and private domain traffic pools, the popularity is increasing visibly with the naked eye.

Twitter has even reached the top of the hot search list.

The cartoons and voices that were shown on TV had been picked out and widely circulated on the Internet.

Even many celebrities have started commenting.

"You know what? I wasn't surprised if someone from Langley did such a thing, and I didn't even doubt the truth of it for a second. ”

"This is the most despicable time I've ever seen values being used, and I'm shocked that there are people in this world who are so shameless."

"Poor old man, for this reason, he is not guaranteed to be in the evening."

"No, what the hell are you talking about? How shameless the people in that place are in Langley, is it still news?! Am I the only one concerned about why Langley would interfere with the attribution of a science prize? ”

"It's sad that Langley can really influence the ownership of a world-class award? I can't help but wonder, what exactly is this empowering for them?! ”

This is only in the United States, and the allies reacted even more strongly to this revelation.

"Is that really the case? Even the Academy of Sciences has always been influenced by them? They even threaten to go bankrupt? ”

"As I said earlier, it's a bunch of robbers in this cloak of hypocrisy! The barbarians still live in the XVII century! ”

"The Academy of Sciences should stand up and speak at this time, is this true?! We need to know the truth! ”

"Hehe, so Americans even have the right to decide who wins the science prize?"

……

Really, the spread is so fast that even Chris Roddy feels panicked.

It always felt like something was wrong.

On weekdays, the topic should not ferment so quickly.

But this time it's noticeably different.

In fact, it wasn't just him who felt that something was wrong, many people felt that something was too wrong.

Three hours after the news aired, both 1600 and Langley realized that the public opinion on the Internet was menacing and unfavorable to their side, after all, Langley had to listen to the instructions issued by 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in the end.

Therefore, it reacted almost immediately, and contacted online media such as Facebook, which are relatively close to the two sides, hoping to reduce the heat of this topic.

You must know that it is very late in time, and many staff members are called up from their beds to work, which can be said to have demonstrated the super efficiency of the two departments.

But it was rejected outright.

The reason given is also very helpless, it is too late!

Although it is true that the official can be stronger than the user, it also scores something.

When a topic has been participated in by nearly a quarter of the world's users in just three hours, the backlash caused by indiscriminate banning can be fatal.

Not to mention that competitors still hang the topic on the top of the hot search list!

The most they can do is to use the algorithm to try not to be swiped by the relevant videos that they haven't seen yet, but people can't ban them if they want to search for them, right?

For a time, the pressure like a mountain was accompanied by the surging public opinion.

Chris Roddy didn't expect that it would only take him an hour to make most of the world extremely lively, like a holiday.

The only pity is that for the time being, most people are still discussing the incident itself, and have not yet focused on him.
