Assistant Xiao Zhang was sweating profusely and kept talking on the phone with his mobile phone.

Zhang Heng walked out of the venue of the press conference and asked, "Have you been contacted?"

Xiao Zhang's face was full of anxiety: "Not yet, I've been turning off the phone, and I've been playing all morning." ”

Zhang Heng said in a deep voice: "You go to his house, Xiao Zhang." ”

"Yes, I'll go. ”

Xiao Zhang came out of the conference room on the second floor of the Feimei Building, went out and drove straight to Lin Yuan's house.

At this time, Lin Yuan had just gotten up, and Lin's mother knocked on the door of Lin Yuan's bedroom and shouted, "Son, it's time to get up, what time are you still sleeping." ”

Lin Yuan yawned, sat up, and turned his head to see that Dad Lin was no longer in bed.

He got out of bed, stretched out, and went out of the bedroom, Luo Shuyan and Lin Dad had already eaten at the table in the dining room, and Lin Mom came out of the kitchen with soy milk.

"Good morning!" Lin Yuan greeted.

"Hurry up and wash and eat. ”

After washing up and having breakfast, the family sat in the living room.

Mother Lin asked, "I heard your father say that you resigned." ”

"Well, resigned. ”

"You started a company with a friend?"

"yes!"

"Where did you get the money? You don't get enough money to go to work. ”

"I earned some money by working part-time in my spare time. ”

Mother Lin was surprised: "Why didn't I know that you were still going to work part-time, I don't have enough money to tell my mother, don't give your son a tired body." ”

"It's all over, Mom, don't worry about me. ”

"What kind of part-time are you doing?"

Lin Yuan's mind turned quickly, and he was about to make up a lie, when there was a rapid knock on the door.

Luo Shuyan was close to the door, so she went to open the door.

Zhang Heng's assistant Xiao Zhang was stunned when he saw Luo Shuyan and asked, "Excuse me, is it Lin Yuan's home?"

Luo Shuyan turned around and shouted at Lin Yuan, "Brother, looking for you." ”

Lin Yuan walked over, saw Xiao Zhang, didn't remember who it was for a while, and asked, "Are you?"

Xiao Zhang said: "I'm Director Zhang's assistant, and I can't get through to call you, so I have to come to you." ”

"Director Zhang, oh, Director Zhang of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, what's the matter?"

Xiao Zhang was very surprised and said, "Yo, you forgot it, right? You can forget such a big thing, today is a press conference." ”

Lin Yuan suddenly remembered, slapped his head, and said: "Oops, I'm sorry, I almost forgot, I'm sorry, my phone has been turned off, there are always harassing calls, you wait for me, I'll go change my clothes and come out." ”

"Mr. Lin, please wear formal clothes, if you don't have one, I can prepare it for you. ”

"Got it, wait a minute. ”

Lin Yuan went back to the bedroom to change clothes, and Lin Dad was very curious when he heard their conversation, so he walked over and asked, "What press conference?"

Xiao Zhang said: "The cultural relics donated by Mr. Lin to the Cultural Relics Bureau are all identified as genuine, and in order to commend Mr. Lin's noble behavior, a press conference was held to commend Mr. Lin." ”

Dad Lin nodded and said, "Oh, that's right." ”

Xiao Zhang asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm Lin Yuan's father. ”

"Oh, hello, hello, you taught a good son, uncle. ”

Dad Lin smiled proudly: "It's okay, this kid is with me." ”

At this time, Lin Yuan came out of the bedroom in a formal suit and asked, "How is it?"

Xiao Zhang looked at it for a moment and said, "Okay, come with me, Director Zhang is angry." ”

Lin Yuan said to Lin's father and Lin's mother: "Parents, I'll go first, and I'll come back in the evening." ”

Lin Yuan went out with Xiao Zhang, and Xiao Zhang asked him not to drive, so he took his own car directly. The two drove straight to the Feimei Building, and encountered a traffic jam on the way.

Lin Yuan asked, "Didn't it just start in the afternoon, why are you in such a hurry?"

Xiao Zhang said: "It starts in the afternoon, but there is still a lot of preparation work before starting." ”

"Is there anything else with me?"

"Of course, if you want to speak at that time, you must not familiarize yourself with familiar words in advance, and you can't read it with your manuscript when you speak. I wanted to send you an electronic copy, but I couldn't contact you, so I just picked you up in advance. ”

"Oh, and the words, can't I improvise?"

"Of course not, how can you improvise at the press conference, in case you say something that shouldn't be said, the reporter will write again, and maybe something will happen. ”

"Okay. ”

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Philippines Building, and Xiao Zhang drove to the back entrance parking lot of the building, and they entered through the back door.

came to the conference room on the second floor, at the scene of the press conference, Xiao Zhang took Lin Yuan to Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng looked serious and said, "What's the matter with you kid, why can't you get through on your mobile phone all the time?"

Lin Yuan hurriedly apologized: "I'm really sorry, it's all the hot search that made trouble, my phone was blown up, so I turned it off directly." ”

"Don't say it yet, hurry up and memorize the words, there are less than three hours left, hurry up and memorize all the words of the speech. ”

Xiao Zhang handed Lin Yuan two pieces of printer paper, on which were speeches.

Zhang Heng said: "You go to the back to memorize the words first, and when the front is ready, I will let Xiao Zhang call you." ”

Lin Yuan came to an empty room in the conference room, Xiao Zhang came in with a bottle of water and handed it to Lin Yuan, urging Lin Yuan to quickly memorize the speech, and leave after delivering the water.

Lin Yuan glanced at the speeches, basically all of them were scene words, thank you for this and thank you, Lin Yuan was very disgusted with this kind of thing, he remembered that when he was in college, as the president of the student union, he always had to read the manuscript prepared in advance, and this kind of formalized thing made him exhausted.

After roughly scanning the speech, he put down the two pieces of paper and simply leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Halfway through, Xiao Zhang came in to take a look, and saw Lin Yuan sleeping, so he quickly called him up to memorize the words. Lin Yuan pretended to look at it twice, and when Xiao Zhang left, he put down the words again and continued to close his eyes and recuperate.

Half an hour before the press conference, Xiao Zhang came in to see again, and saw that Lin Yuan didn't memorize the words, so he woke Lin Yuan up angrily.

"Mr. Lin, what are you doing, have you memorized all the words?"

Lin Yuan stretched his waist, nodded and said, "It's all memorized." ”

"Really, you memorized it in such a short time?" Xiao Zhang questioned.

Lin Yuandao: "When I was in college, I memorized too many such words, and the basic sentences were all the same, and it was not very difficult to memorize, don't worry." ”

"Alright then, come out with me, the press conference is about to start, and the reporters are starting to enter. ”

Xiao Zhang took Lin Yuan to the side door of the conference room, at the door, Zhang Heng and Deputy Director Huang were there, and there were two old men, Lin Yuan looked familiar, it was the last time he went to the Cultural Relics Bureau for a meeting, the people who participated in the meeting.

Seeing Deputy Director Huang, Lin Yuan came over to greet him: "Deputy Director Huang, hello." ”

Deputy Director Huang stretched out his hand and shook Lin Yuan, and said with a smile: "Lin Yuan, are you nervous?"

Lin Yuan said: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." ”

"Okay, the young man is really calm, not bad!" Deputy Director Huang praised.

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Fortunately, I have been the president of the student union for a year, this kind of scene has long been commonplace, it is fake to say that I am not nervous, not to the extent of showing timidity." ”

Lin Yuan took a deep breath, and then stood beside Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng said in a low voice: "Have you memorized all the words?"

"I've memorized it, don't worry. ”

"After a while, the reporters in the audience will ask a lot of questions, and if you can answer them, you will answer them, and if you can't answer them, you will wink at me, and I will answer them for you, remember?"

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Well, remember." ”

At this time, reporters began to enter. In less than ten minutes, the entire press area under the stage was full of reporters, and there were more than a dozen cameras standing in the last row. There were more than 30 reporters sitting in the audience, as well as foreign journalists.

Zhang Heng said: "This press conference invited not only domestic reporters, but also foreign media reporters. ”

"Foreign? Why invite foreign?"

Zhang Heng said: "You think, what a good opportunity this is to show our national treasures and cultural relics abroad." ”

"Oh, I see. Lin Yuan thought to himself, it's just to show off.

After a while, Xiao Zhang ran over and said to Deputy Director Huang and the others: "Leaders, are you ready? The press conference is about to start, and everything is ready." ”

Deputy Director Huang said: "Okay, let's start then." ”

Xiao Zhang ran to inform the host, the host walked up to the stage, turned on the microphone in front of the podium, and said: "Friends of domestic and foreign journalists, please be quiet, the press conference is about to begin, let us invite all the leaders to the stage, first let us welcome Huang Yan, deputy director of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, Zhang Heng, director of the Municipal Bureau of Cultural Heritage, the expert team of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, Professor Chen Lan, Professor Fang Hai, Professor Dong Guofei, and Lin Yuan, the donor of cultural relics. ”

Lin Yuan walked at the end and walked up to the stage behind the leader, and Lin Yuan was arranged to sit down between Deputy Director Huang and Director Zhang.

After everyone took their seats, the host said: "This press conference, in addition to a public display of the four cultural relics, will also commend the donor Mr. Lin Yuan. The first item of this press conference is to invite Zhang Heng, director of the Municipal Bureau of Cultural Relics, to display and explain the four cultural relics, and welcome with applause. ”
