Chapter 30: Soul Break (1)
Going deep into the nest and interviewing Lao A is like the dividing point of time and space. Meng Chuan'er became famous all over the world in one fell swoop, and the world's major TV stations reposted it in various languages.
After tea and dinner in those days, everyone talked about this Asian female war correspondent Meng Kuan'er, who visited the world's largest horror base like visiting a vegetable market, and finally interviewed the soul character Lao A.
Her Chinese peers began to call her Tiger Girl, and when she introduced her to other peers, they also said directly, half-jokingly and half-respectfully: "This is that, the legendary Tiger girl." As a result, the nickname spread, and every time I met my foreign counterpart, I would give a thumbs up: "Tiger girl!!"
Meng Chuan'er rolled her eyes in her heart, are you all so praising people in your village?
Chen Jie didn't wait for Meng Chuan'er to come to the door, took the initiative to come to the station, sat down and drank tea. The Chinese Chamber of Commerce took 2 million yuan as LP, and Meng Chuan'er became a GP (fund manager) to rescue and help children like Saibo who were injured in the war but survived.
To develop this fund and turn it into a well-known international peace public welfare fund, so that the world can pay more attention to the children and women in the war is the other half of Meng Chuan'er's dream.
Yu Xiaoshan occasionally asked Meng Chuan'er when he would come back, and Meng Chuan'er always said that the coming day was long, red cherries, green plantains, and even the peach tree planted at the entrance of the teahouse bloomed twice. Time flies, and it's another year and a half.
The past two years have not been happy, but for Meng Chuan'er, it is very memorable and fulfilling. In the past two years, she has been deeply involved in the local society of Afghanistan, understanding the plight of children, the feelings of women seeking jobs in society, the helplessness of drug addicts, and the turmoil and harm caused by years of war.
She recorded all this with the camera and words, and in the face of explosions and bullets, she couldn't be completely fearless, but she was used to it. As Chen Jie deepened his relationship with Meng Chuan'er, he found that this tiger girl not only had the ability to break through during the interview, but also had excellent business intuition.
So he mobilized his Chinese businessmen in the United States to donate some, although the scale of the fund is not large, but the help to the children is in place. Chen Jie also has a ghost idea, that is, he can gradually make this fund semi-public welfare and semi-commercial, with both influence and interests in his pocket. But that's a story for another time.
The relationship between Meng Chuan'er and Zhang Chao and Li Fenglong's two comrades-in-arms in distress has become deeper and deeper, and since the unforgettable night that Li Fenglong and Meng Chuan'er walked through last time, they have never mentioned any embarrassing topics for the two of them.
In the past two years, the three of them have taken the lead in making a lot of particularly valuable reports. The two men often walk around in their underwear, don't treat Meng Chuan'er as a woman at all, and often grab the only bathroom with Meng Chuan'er who can take a bath.
Once Meng Chuan'er changed a light-sensitive water heater to the bathroom in the station, Zhang Chao came back from the interview and wanted to take a shower, Meng Chuan'er yelled: "Get out, my aunt and grandmother have to wash first." Otherwise, no one should even think about washing. ”
Zhang Chao laughed and ran into the bathroom, locked the door in the door and shouted arrogantly: "If you want to wash, everyone else has to give in, if you don't accept you to come in, you take it off!"
Meng Chuan'er snorted coldly and waited for this product next to the bathroom door. I heard that there was no sound of water inside, Meng Chuan'er laughed wildly in her heart, stupid than, if I hadn't studied the manual for half a day today, I wouldn't have used it, I'll see how you pull it upside down.
It can be more than ten minutes, Zhang Chao poked his head out of the door: "The master gave it to you, good men don't fight with women, you wash first." ”
Meng Chuan'er laughed outside: "The dead duck has a hard mouth, are you sure that you will use it after your aunt and grandmother finish washing?"
"Then why don't you teach me how to do it, and then let me wash it first?"
She knocked on the wooden door of the bathroom: "Roll the calf, hurry up and come out, I'll teach you after washing." ”
Zhang Chao hatefully wore underwear and came out with the pile of clothes he had just taken off, just happened to bump into Li Fenglong and wanted to take a bath, and was just about to go inside, but was pulled out by Zhang Chao: "There is a 205 water heater that we can't use, and we have to let 255 wash it first." ”
"Who are you talking about!" Meng Chuan'er raised his hand to fight, and the two of them ran away in a puff of smoke.
But there is one thing that makes Meng Chuan'er very dissatisfied, since Tully Ban came out and attracted worldwide attention, in the past two years, they have rushed to the scene on the grounds that "the credit cannot be taken by one person".
Meng Chuan'er can't drive, and with more time to be busy with the Foundation's affairs, she also wants to finish her work as soon as possible and return to China as soon as possible. Because there is a fate in the country for the rest of her life. So sometimes they can only help them get the big back draft.
She knew that it was actually the deepest trust and love between comrades-in-arms, and they would rather keep the chance of survival to themselves in the face of danger.
The trio teamed up to grab a lot of headlines and debuts, and Time Weekly's international video department gradually became famous, and many world-class media would insert or broadcast the videos and updates they filmed.
The highest level of work is love, under this premise, team combat is more important than individual heroism, even in the circle of war correspondents, who need individual heroism the most, the concerted efforts of these two have reached a tacit state than "fighting tiger brothers, fathers and sons in battle" after two years of running-in.
Meng Kuan'er feels that she is very lucky in this regard, running around in her ideals every day, talking on the phone with Yu Xiaoshan, who is far away in China, is a pleasure, and fighting side by side with Zhang Chao and Li Fenglong is another kind of fun.
In fact, most of the servants in the station stayed in the basement except for sleeping time, and they cleaned up the basement very warmly after experiencing N terrorist attacks.
I found a large blanket of alpaca cashmere (that is, the legendary mythical beast grass mud horse), a variety of comfortable small sofas and chairs from the thrift flea market, heaters and electric heaters, plush slippers, various snacks and books.
In the end, no one stays in their bedrooms on weekdays, and the basement is like a den, which can not only prevent bombing, but also fight the landlord.
But Li Fenglong and Zhang Chao resolutely refused to play with Meng Chuan'er anymore. Every time Meng Chuan'er said, "Come on, brother, how many handfuls of colorful ones?"
Zhang Chao would stab her: "If you want money, just say it, and we will transfer it to you, don't do additional mental humiliation." ”
But they weren't very convinced, why couldn't they win against her, so they won the game and broke their brains, but Meng Chuan'er may really have a talent in fighting landlords, and she is known as the landlord's goddess, and she has never lost.
The two men are often flicked by her, and the more they play, the more anxious they become, the more they continue to choose to play with her, and the end is a cube where a head bag becomes a head bag.
They were still gambling in the basement that day, when they suddenly heard another explosion on the ground.
The three of them threw the card and connected with the security intercom in the monitoring room, and the security guard said that the wild rice restaurant where they often went to eat 20 meters near the station was blown up.
Zhang Chao picked up the camera and Li Fenglong was about to go out, Meng Chuan'er stood up and wanted to go together, but was stopped by Zhang Chao: "Chuan'er, don't make trouble, 20 meters away from the station is too close, not only Taliban is making trouble recently, but also various anti-government armed branches, a few days ago I heard that there are reporters whose whereabouts are unknown, you have a meritorious person on your body, don't always take the lead, you have to let us two points." Staying in the basement to make up the news, I took a few pictures with Hong Leong and came back. ”
Meng Chuan'er has become commonplace for this kind of rhetoric, but she is still very angry: "MD, you two always don't let me out of the scene, this time just TM exploded, and it has to explode for a while, otherwise when they shoot, you go out again, even if you two are shot by a stray bullet, you will be missing an arm and a broken leg or something, in case you are blown up, you won't even have a whole corpse." ”
"You MD, can you say something nice, let's go, come back and continue fighting, you played sixteen of our brains today, and I'll be back twice in a while." ”
"Come back and play sixteen of you again, don't ink and get out of here. ”
In fact, it is quite common to be bombed on the ground, anyway, it has to be blown up once every three days, and the two masters also try their best to stop Meng Chuan'er from the scene. Come back and continue to fight the landlord.
It's a sunny day, and although it's winter, the basement is like a warm cellar. But as soon as they left, the blankets, slippers, and computers were all empty.
I don't know why, this time Meng Chuan'er always felt frightened, and her heartbeat was about to jump out of her chest, maybe the location where she was bombed this time was the closest to the station.
I was distraught, and I still couldn't calm down after reciting the Diamond Sutra again. Unable to stay in the basement, she ran to the security guard's monitoring room.
The monitoring room is the most heavily defended place, surrounded by bulletproof glass, and the security guard was startled when he saw her, but he didn't say anything.
In the past two years, the security uncle has been accustomed to three mental illnesses who do not take medicine, and it is not surprising that he can do anything shocking, just now I saw Zhang Chao and Li Fenglong chattering out, which will Meng Chuan'er come in and the two security guards silently gave her the monitoring position.
The scope of monitoring is that the two goods can definitely be seen, Meng Chuan'er enlarged the monitoring map that belonged to them at that angle, and stared at it without blinking. Li Fenglong held the camera at Zhang Chao, Zhang Chao was forcing some of the situation at the scene, Meng Chuan'er was in a hurry, the two fools compared the camera, just take a few photos and leave, talking nonsense.
At this moment, a very strange woman whose face was all covered by black gauze walked towards Zhang Chao, it was not strange that her face was covered, and the women here were not allowed to show their faces, but when this kind of artillery fire had not stopped, there was a fierce gunfight in front, and a woman walked slowly, don't you think it's strange?
The more Meng Chuan'er looked at it, the more strange it became, and when she wanted to rush out, she was stopped by the security guard: "They explained that they must not let you out." ”
Meng Chuan'er could only look back at the surveillance, and the woman had already walked next to Zhang Chao. Closer and closer, closer and closer. The pace seems to be out of this world, out of step with the surrounding bombardment, so slow that it is weird, so weird that it is indescribable.
