Maomao always acted responsibly, so when he learned that Mei Qian was interested in participating in the live broadcast, he went to Xiadu TV Station to discuss relevant matters with the production director without saying a word.
As Mei Qian's assistant and manager, Maomao is very popular at Xiadu TV Station and has many acquaintances.
After leaving the newly formed film crew, she did not leave in a hurry. Instead, she followed Mei Qian's instructions and inquired with acquaintances. After getting a lot of inside information about the program, she rushed to the Four Seasons Garden with satisfaction.
As soon as he entered Mei Qian's house, he saw Ning Chi squatting in the living room packing a lot of fruits and health products.
"Who's here again?" Maomao asked casually, changing her shoes.
Ning Chi scratched his head and pursed his lips at the milk and fruit in front of him: "This is from the publishing house." Then he pointed to the beautifully wrapped gift box: "This is a thank you gift from the building next door."
"Next door building? Thank you for the gift?" Maomao opened his eyes wide, then picked up the gift box and clicked his tongue twice: "Are you really going to find the cat?"
Ning Chi's expression became extremely strange: "They put their things at the door and left. They probably felt embarrassed. They also made a message in the group, and the cat went home on his own." Then he sighed: "Brother Qian asked me to wait for a while.
Please return the things back."
Maomao couldn't help but laugh, saying that when the neighbor came over to ask Mei Qian to find a cat, both of them were present.
They watched with their own eyes as the boss's face turned from white to red, and then from red to blue. They flatly refused the unreasonable request for the detective to find the cat, and kicked him out unceremoniously.
With this kind of attitude, no matter whether the person is really happy to find the cat or is just trying to make friends, it will be hard to accept the gift.
After chatting for a while, Maomao knocked on the study door.
In the study, when Maomao walked in, Mei Qian was making an outline, but because he had just started, only a description of the subject appeared in the document, and there was no name.
"New book? The theme of tomb robbing?" Maomao glanced at it casually, then raised his eyebrows: "Old Liu, don't you know you are recuperating? Are you still urging me?"
Mei Qian seemed indifferent: "He was pushed to the point of being helpless by the leader, but the conditions given were good and he had plenty of time."
The person they call Lao Liu is the publishing director of the publishing group. He has been urging Mei Qian for three days to take advantage of the popularity to publish a new book on tomb robbing. This time, he personally brought gifts and came to persuade Mei Qian in the name of visiting a patient.
"Then please pay attention to your body and don't be too tired." Maomao warned.
After a pause, he glanced at Mei Qian opposite him, and suggested in a joking tone: "If it doesn't work, just stop the online serialization! Anyway, the current results of this book are average, and the prospects are not good."
She said this implicitly. In fact, Mei Qian's new book had great reputation and good results. She couldn't understand why her boss got into trouble with Buddhism. The first book he wrote was Eunuch, but he dared to write the second one.
Two copies.
Unexpectedly, Mei Qian didn't seem to understand what she meant at all: "I still prefer online serialization. As for the physical tomb robbing, I can write it slowly." At this point, he suddenly laughed and said: "Isn't it normal for writers to procrastinate on manuscripts?
?”
Maomao: "..."
Isn’t it normal for a smart, beautiful, generous and capable female assistant to always have an unreliable boss?
She complained silently, but she also knew the character of her boss. In addition, he had made a lot of money recently, so he also had some capital to be willful, so she said nothing more and turned to talk about the archaeological live broadcast.
Speaking of which, the birth of the program "Summer Collected Works" can be said to have been bumpy.
Last year's excavation of the underground ruins of the Warring States Period in Dongshan, although there were casualties, also attracted the attention of viewers across the country. It was later made very impressive, allowing Dongshan TV Station to gain a lot of benefits.
This also made other TV stations jealous, and several such programs appeared later. However, because there were no gimmicks, the scale of the archeology was not large, and the origin of the tomb owner was not mysterious, the effects were average.
Xiadu TV Station also wanted to follow suit, but unfortunately there was no support available from the surrounding area.
Valley
When the news about the existence of ancient tombs underground in Xiadu spread, before the subway construction started, they came up with the idea of live streaming archaeology.
When the news was finally confirmed and we were ready to start a big project, we encountered resistance when the project was established. We had to wait for the Archaeological Bureau to conduct a survey before deciding whether to excavate.
After finally waiting for the survey to be completed, the Archaeological Bureau was divided into two groups, resulting in the approval document never being issued.
One group believes that although the ancient tomb has been filled with water and air, and old robber holes and corpses of tomb robbers have been found, the door leading to the main tomb chamber is still closed. There is a high probability that the cultural relics inside have not been damaged or robbed.
I do not agree with excavation when the technology is immature.
The other group believes that no one can guarantee the sealing performance of ancient buildings. If water seeps in, it will have a fatal impact on the cultural relics. Moreover, the underground tomb covers a large area and it is impossible to confirm that there are no other entrances. It is proposed to carry out protective excavation.
"The two factions were quarreling fiercely. A while ago, the Archaeological Bureau held meetings every day, and it is said that they almost came to blows several times." Maomao said with some gloating.
Mei Qian looked at her helplessly and asked, "Did the excavation faction win the argument in the end?"
This is for sure, otherwise there would be no live broadcast of archeology.
Maomao nodded: "I heard that the excavation faction listed some evidence to prove that the ancient tomb has been visited by tomb robbers. This program has just been officially established."
"Evidence?" Mei Qian was slightly startled.
At first he was very disapproving. If others don’t know, doesn’t he still know? He made up this ancient tomb, so how could there be cultural relics circulating in the market? Isn’t this nonsense?
But then I thought about it, this was a manifestation of the system. Now that there are even the corpses of the tomb robbers, it is not impossible to get one or two cultural relics out.
Um?
Mei Qian suddenly tensed up and asked hurriedly: "What evidence? Is it a bronze tripod?"
Unexpectedly, Maomao shook her head: "I don't know, keep it secret. I asked my dad specifically when I came back, and he didn't know." At this point, she showed hesitation: "Brother Qian, what do you think about Ma Tou?
Is the bronze tripod that appeared in the ditch related to the ancient tomb of Xiadu?"
"I hope not!" Mei Qian replied with only four words.
Maomao saw that he didn't look very good, so he left the study.
Only Mei Qian was left, staring blankly at the mostly empty document...
-----------------------
After dinner, Ning Chi also got off work, leaving him alone in Mei Qian's home.
After storing the medicine prescribed by the doctor into the system warehouse, he controlled the wheelchair and reached the balcony again.
His eyes were darting around, and although he couldn't see clearly what was happening in the distance, the feeling of being watched still existed.
He turned his head, smiled in one direction, took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Yu's number.
"Eh? You didn't work overtime?" As soon as the call was connected, Mei Qian keenly distinguished the sound of cooking and the woman's shouting from the phone.
"It's not like we just solved a major case. I haven't been very busy in the past two days." Zhang Yu said with a smile.
"How is your new captain?" Mei Qian lowered his voice and asked softly: "Don't tell me that he is the same as Qin Sen?"
Then, there was silence on the other end of the phone...
