CHAPTER IX
Her eyes fell on the flyer of the Internet addiction school.
After entering the millennium, computers have an increasing impact on people's work and life, and the high price has also discouraged ordinary families. Although it has not entered thousands of households like televisions, with the strong support of the state, even the primary schools in towns in remote areas have been funded by the state to build computer rooms.
Therefore, under such an opportunity, the emerging industry of Internet cafes came into being, which blossomed everywhere in small and medium-sized cities across the country, and some wealthy small towns have Internet cafes.
Teenagers, who like to get in touch with new things the most, have naturally become the main consumer group of Internet cafes.
As a result, the term "Internet addiction" frequently appears in TV and newspapers, which can be regarded as a hot word of the times, and most parents who do not know about computers are very worried about it, and even hate it, thinking that it will ruin their children's lives.
Some speculators who have heard the news have set up high-profile Internet addiction schools and advertised them through various channels, with a good reputation: help your child quit Internet addiction, and give you a good child who is well-behaved and obedient.
Regarding the Internet addiction school, Lin Shuyue heard about it when she was a child, but she didn't know about it.
When she was in junior high school, news frequently broke out on the Internet that detonated social hotspots, as well as interviews with students who had attended Internet addiction schools.
The notorious "Academy" and the one who has been on the central media's many episodes of documentaries!
and those that followed.
Corporal punishment, kidnapping, abuse, beatings, and imprisonment were all the rage that became commonplace in those schools.
People who enter this kind of school, no matter what they looked like before entering, after coming out of it, without exception, will become silent and introverted, and some will even commit suicide because of this.
Lin Shuyue came out of Ah Hao's house. Today's sun was as dazzling as ever, but she knew that there were always some dark sides in this world that the sun couldn't shine on even if it was so hot.
Lin Shuyue thought, since she has traveled to this era and become a journalist, she must do what she can for these students who are poisoned by Internet addiction schools. Even if the final result is unsatisfactory, there are always parents who love their children, who can sound the alarm for those parents, and what she does is not useless.
Back at the company, Lin Shuyue greeted Li Mingfang and other colleagues, and went directly to the editor-in-chief's office.
She knocked lightly on the door, and a voice came from the office: "Come in." โ
Wang Mingzheng was sitting in the boss's chair, answering the phone with a smile on his face, he pointed to the sofa in the hospitality area next to the desk, motioned for Lin Shuyue to sit, and hung up the phone after a few words of greeting on the other end of the phone.
He smiled and walked to sit opposite Lin Shuyue, looking in a good mood, and even poured Lin Shuyue a cup of tea himself.
People in Guangdong Province love to drink tea when they talk about business and business, and almost all the places where they are entertained will prepare a set of tea sets.
Generally speaking, it is the juniors who pour tea for the elders, or the subordinates pour tea for the leaders, and Wang Mingzheng, as the leader, can personally pour tea for her, which is enough to show his appreciation and attention to Lin Shuyue.
"Xiaolin, just now someone from Pengcheng Daily called and said that he wanted to reprint this article you wrote, and it was still on the front page. Xiaolin, you are giving our company a long face! Your winnings are doubled this month! Wang Mingzheng was in a good mood, and waved his hand generously.
In recent years, there have been more and more large and small print media, and old newspapers like Pengcheng Metropolis Daily have been declining and deteriorating because they can't keep up with the pace of the times.
The newspaper relied on the popularity and connections it had built for more than 20 years to barely keep the company running.
It can be said that Pengcheng Metropolis Daily has a glamorous appearance, and it can rent a half-floor office in the most famous building, relying on the boss's previous connections, and the rent is cheap.
Otherwise, in their peers, they may not even have the last bit of face.
A private newspaper like theirs can have 10 articles a year that are reprinted by state media, which is not bad. As for being in the Central Daily? I can only think about it, after all, I don't necessarily publish one article a year.
Wang Mingzheng inquired with an acquaintance from Pengcheng Daily just now.
It is said that Lin Shuyue's article is sharp, the narrative perspective is unique, the logic is clear and progressive, telling people the beginning and end of the case, and the summary of the statement at the end is also thought-provoking, which is a very good report.
And the illustration of the article, the photos of the murderer captured by Lin Shuyue are also rare, which has triggered a wave of discussion among the citizens and social heat.
Judging from this development, it may be reprinted by the central media, even if it is published on the last page, Wang Mingzheng is satisfied.
With such a beautiful expectation, he looked at Lin Shuyue again, and it was comfortable from beginning to end.
Lin Shuyue was also very happy!
For her, this is the first article in the real sense, and Lin Shuyue is very content with such achievements and influence in her debut, it seems that it is still useful to read a lot of old case reports in the police academy before, and every effort is gained.
This made her nervous heart because of the change of career, and suddenly settled down.
"Thank you, editor-in-chief."
Wang Mingzheng took a sip of tea and said with a gentle attitude: "Xiaolin, what is the matter with you coming to me?" โ
Lin Shuyue handed over the Internet addiction school enrollment flyer: "Editor-in-chief, I don't know if you have heard of Internet addiction schools?" โ
Wang Mingzheng nodded, of course he had heard it.
He is 42 years old this year, after years of hard work, the economic conditions are very good, when the home computer went on the market, he was the first person among relatives and friends to eat crabs, and he bought and used it early.
In this regard, Wang Mingzheng was proud in his heart on the one hand, but he was very distressed on the other.
He has a sixteen-year-old son who was very obedient and sensible when he was a child, and since he divorced his wife and his son was taken by his parents, the son has become more and more rebellious, addicted to computer games and making friends all day long.
Wang Mingzheng is middle-aged, and his career is also successful, and now the biggest setback comes from his son.
Last winter, a friend he knew sent his son, who was addicted to playing with computers, to an Internet addiction school for renovation, and after only three months in it, he came back much more obedient and sensible than before.
Wang Mingzheng was very moved when he learned about it, and he was also considering whether to send his son in.
Recently, I have been busy with the affairs of the newspaper, and this matter has been suppressed.
Hearing Lin Shuyue mention it at this time, that idea was about to move again.
Wang Mingzheng didn't say anything, Lin Shuyue secretly thought, how to convince him? After all, if she wants to infiltrate the Internet addiction school, she needs to seek Wang Mingzheng's consent and help.
What Lin Shuyue wants to investigate in the future, she can get the support and help of the company's speakers, which can greatly facilitate her actions.
She had to convince Wang Mingzheng.
"Editor-in-chief, since the opening of the Internet addiction school last year, in just one year, several branch schools have been opened, and batches of students have been sent in, so popular with everyone, I want to experience and investigate it personally, whether it is boring or not, there is attractive content to write about."
Wang Mingzheng raised his head, thoughtful, but didn't say anything to stop Lin Shuyue.
Lin Shuyue's words are not unreasonable, and they are also in the hands of Wang Mingzheng, who is very interested in this investigation.
Wang Mingzheng tapped his fingers on the table, he didn't think that Lin Shuyue could investigate any shady scenes, after all, various newspapers and TV stations had reported on it, and those children who graduated from Internet addiction schools have clearly changed for the better.
The eyes of the masses are bright, if there is a problem that has already exploded, are you waiting for a newcomer to discover? Sure enough, young people who have not yet graduated from college are too taken for granted and idealistic.
But it's okay, for a talented young man, Wang Mingzheng is very willing to tolerate and give her the opportunity to try and make mistakes.
After all, Lin Shuyue is right in what she said: whether she is tired or not, she lurks in it and experiences it, and there is content to write about, which is the concern of parents who are worried about their children.
Anyway, no matter what the result of the unannounced visit is, there is no loss for the newspaper.
He thought so in his heart, but he looked at Lin Shuyue very well on his face, and encouraged: "Xiaolin, you also know the situation of our newspaper, I can't give you sufficient funds for the investigation here, but the editor-in-chief will try my best to provide you with the necessary help." โ
Lin Shuyue got the result she wanted, and a big smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. The two discussed the details, and Lin Shuyue got up and left the office.
She opened the door of the office and happened to bump into Li Weisheng who was smiling, and when he saw Lin Shuyue, he immediately lost his smile, and his expression was as proud as a male peacock. This time, he found a big news, as long as the newspaper agreed to investigate it, he swore that this must be an exclusive that could dominate the list for days!
He doesn't believe in evil, and he can definitely win against Lin Shuyue's girl this time.
Lin Shuyue immediately responded with an eye knife and left flutteringly.
Li Wei behind him was as angry as a pufferfish, and he was full of energy to make a big news.
ยทยทยทยทยท
Pengcheng Superior Internet Addiction School is a militarized management school, the school has a history of one year and three months since its establishment in January 2003, and the tuition fee is 500 yuan per month.
In just over a year, such a high tuition fee can't stop parents from hoping that their sons will become Chan and their daughters will become phoenixes, and they will take a lot of cash one after another, crying and shouting to send their children, begging them to transform their children.
This year, Xiao Changxin, the founder and principal of the school, walked out with the wind.
The phone on the desk rang, Xiao Changxin waved his hand, and asked the secretary to take out the document he had just signed, which was about the advertising plan for the next quarter, in the newspaper and on TV.
When the phone was about to hang up, Xiao Changxin picked up the phone slowly: "Hey, hello, this is the Superior Internet Addiction School." โ
I didn't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Xiao Changxin's smile suddenly became bigger: "Boss Zhou really doesn't have to be so polite." Our school was founded with the philosophy that everything is for the physical and mental health of children, not for money. โ
Boss Zhou said this, which really made Xiao ashamed. How old is Ling Ai and what are the symptoms? โ
"Sixteen years old, sixteen years old is okay, I can break it."
"Yes, no problem, I'll send a teacher over as soon as possible, Boss Zhou rest assured, after three months, I will definitely give you a well-behaved, sensible and obedient daughter."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Changxin comfortably took a sip of coffee made by the beautiful secretary, and looked up at the window.
Under the scorching sun, a group of teenagers between the ages of 10 and 18 were running, and several instructors in camouflage uniforms were standing on the track with their whips.
A few of the students couldn't run anymore and slowed down, and the instructor closest to them stepped forward menacingly, waving the whip in his hand at them without hesitation.
Xiao Changxin calmly looked away, such a scene was ordinary to him.
He made a phone call, and soon the school gate opened, and a van sped out of the school, and in the van, there were four or five 'instructors' in camouflage uniforms.
