The reporters were not afraid of the police. They took out their press cards calmly. Li Dawei, the deputy director of Dadun Township Police Station, checked the press cards. These people were all reporters from provincial media. If they were detained rashly, they would definitely cause a big mess, but not
It was not appropriate to say a few harsh words, so he said with a fierce face: "You are all mouthpieces of the party. If there are deviations in reporting, you must be responsible."
The reporters were not afraid of him, the deputy director of a small rural police station, and asked him one after another, what did he mean by deviation?
"Everything is subject to the press release from the Propaganda Department of our township party committee. I personally have no comment and decline to be interviewed." Deputy Director Li crossed his arms in front of his chest. This was a sign of precaution, indicating that he had something up his sleeve.
The reporters scoffed. The Jiangdong TV station and Jiangdong Newspaper they worked for were both media outlets under the direct control of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. The district and township propaganda departments even issued press releases, which made people laugh out loud.
However, someone was causing trouble, and the interview in the village was impossible. The reporters also got some information and said that we knew it, the interview had been completed, and they were going back now.
Li Dawei was not at ease and secretly reported the incident to Township Chief Lan. Upon receiving the report, Lan Cultural Gege immediately sent out elite troops to follow the reporter's car all the way to Pingchuan.
As soon as the reporters left, Zhao Erhu called and asked Director Li to help detain the reporters.
"Erhu, don't make things difficult for your uncle. The reporters are all from the province. If you really press them, your uncle's job will be ruined." Li Dawei advised.
"I didn't ask you to handcuff them, just keep them. I'll have a good talk with them and pay them how much they want." Zhao Er seemed quite sensible in what he said.
"What if they don't listen?" Li Dawei asked.
"Don't listen, hum. There are quite a few of them down there in the mine. It's not easy to cause a car accident." Zhao Erhu said with a grim smile.
Li Dawei was startled: "Niece, don't be impulsive. You are not a native of our hometown. If you mess around, big trouble can easily happen."
"I know it." Zhao Erhu said.
The reporters were very sensitive. When they noticed an urban management van following them, they all laughed and said that Mayor Lan had sent us bodyguards. However, they were very wary. They called the leaders of their units to report and recorded the license plate number of the urban management van.
However, once they entered the city, the urban management vehicles from Dadun Township stopped following them.
When I arrived in Pingchuan City, I went to the Education Bureau for an interview. The staff refused to interview me. They just told me according to the script that Lan Huanxi was a college student taking the college entrance examination. According to relevant regulations, her results had been cancelled, and her application form would not be accepted.
If I ask any other questions, I won’t answer them at all.
The reporters also discovered that there were always some people following them in secret. Feeling that their personal safety was threatened, the reporters ended the interview in Pingchuan after asking for instructions from their leaders.
Having no choice but to return to Omi, these unwilling reporters continued to go to Koto University to find out more about the situation. There were still some students staying in the school, and they easily took photos of the classmates of "Lan Huanxi". However, according to everyone, Lan Huanxi was only on the file.
Everyone usually calls her Lan Lili. This girl got admitted to Jiangnan University with high scores. After enrolling, her grades plummeted and she failed in every subject.
"Lan Lili's family seems to be quite wealthy. She rents a three-bedroom house outside the school. She wears all brand-name clothes and doesn't socialize much with her classmates. Everyone doesn't have a good relationship with her."
"So where can I find this Blue Lily?"
"I heard that she traveled to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand and is not in the country for the time being."
Through the investigation, the matter has become vague. The real identity of Lan Huanxi has been replaced by others, and some forces are still trying their best to cover up the truth.
Ruan Xiaochuan, a reporter from the Evening News Bureau of Huaijiang Daily, is a graduate of the Journalism Department of Jiangdong University. His grandfather served as the newspaper's editor-in-chief, president, and deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Although his grandfather passed away many years ago, his connections are still there.
, so Ruan Xiaochuan joined a newspaper office after graduation and has been running news on the front line.
This time I went to Pingchuan to cover the news about the top scorer in the college entrance examination. Ruan Xiaochuan was responsible for the newspaper. He was keenly aware that this was a big news and worth digging into. After returning home, Ruan Xiaochuan stayed up all night to finish the article.
…
At the same time, Zhao Mozhi was also busy. He heard that reporters from the province went to the countryside to interview, and he was afraid of being exposed, so he asked a friend to treat him to dinner. He drank at noon and drank at night. He vomited several times. Fortunately, the wine he drank was red wine. It would have been white wine.
You have to drink it until your stomach bleeds.
Recently, drinking red wine has become popular in Pingchuan official circles. They say that this product can maintain health, beautify the face, clear the heart and brain blood vessels, and is very beneficial to health. A bottle of French red wine can easily cost tens of thousands. It is produced by well-known wineries and has a certificate of authenticity. It is not only popular
It was popular to drink wine and give it as a gift. Zhao Mozhi spent a lot of money and bought 100,000 yuan worth of red wine to give as a gift. It really worked. A certain leader with great skills and eyes agreed to help him solve the media problem.
"Old Zhao, the former Director Huang of our Municipal Propaganda Department is now the Director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. His words are effective. Don't worry, they will never be reported to the newspaper." The leader shook the red wine in the goblet, a little tipsy.
"I won't say much more to thank you. It's all in the wine." Zhao Mozhi took on the posture of drinking white wine and drained a large glass full of red wine, revealing the bottom of the glass.
The leader laughed loudly and applauded: "Old Zhao, you have a good capacity for drinking and a good taste of wine, but drinking like this is just like peony chewing, hahaha."
Everyone at the wine table laughed, laughing at Zhao Mozhi, a country bumpkin who didn't understand elegance.
Zhao Mozhi smiled honestly: "I am from a rural area and I don't know how to drink red wine. I would like to ask the leaders to educate me and give me some advice."
The leader used the strength of the wine to say: "Red wine should be tasted slowly. Shake it well first, and then taste it slowly with your taste buds. What you are tasting is not the sweet and sour taste, but the French culture and the style of Bordeaux."
"Well said!" Everyone applauded in unison.
The leader smiled proudly, and Zhao Mozhi raised his glass again: "Even though I have received an education, my leader is still knowledgeable. I can't drink the culture and style. I feel that this red wine is sour, bitter, and hard to drink."
"Old Zhao, you are not used to drinking it. When I went to France for inspection two years ago, I was not used to drinking it. Later, I gradually got used to it. This is not a bitter taste, but the special aroma of oak tubes. Do you know?"
"Yes, yes, we rural people are still used to drinking sweet potato roast. It's refreshing and enjoyable." In front of the leaders, Zhao Mozhi has always kept a low profile and presented himself as a simple person.
Even though the alcohol content of red wine was not as high as that of white wine, Zhao Mozhi drank it again and vomited out all the stomach acid. However, he drank yogurt and continued to fight. In order to show his sincerity, he changed to five-star Huaijiang special wine and continued drinking until he died.

…
Ruan Xiaochuan stayed up all night and finally got out the press release about the college entrance examination champion who was impostored. He rushed to the newspaper office without eating in the morning, printed out the manuscript and handed it to the director. The director read it and repeatedly said "ok" and typed it immediately and published it in the evening.
.
The Huaijiang Evening News has a huge circulation, and it still has a large number of fans today when digital publishing takes the mainstream. The most important thing about a newspaper is news. The colleagues of the Evening News are busy on the front line of reporting, bringing a lot of news to the general public.
First-hand news, rather than copying some news from the Internet to fill the news like other newspapers.
Ruan Xiaochuan was convinced that his report would cause a sensation, and he couldn't help but feel proud. He crossed his legs and boasted with his colleagues. The manuscript quickly passed the review and was typed and printed. It will be available to readers this evening.
At noon, the Propaganda Department called the newspaper office and asked if there was any news about Pingchuan's top scorer in the college entrance examination. The leader of the newspaper office immediately sent the article to them. After reading it, they replied and suppressed it first. There have been a lot of negative news about Pingchuan recently.
It is not appropriate to add insult to injury, and this report is mostly based on inferences and suspicions, which is somewhat untenable.
The person who greeted me was a section chief of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. It was said that he was a cadre transferred from Pingchuan. Therefore, the newspaper leaders understood and immediately asked the subordinates to urgently withdraw the article. However, it had already been delivered to printing, and there was no time to make temporary changes, so they had to print it first.
It was treated as waste paper and beaten into pulp. The original layout was too ugly with the skylight open, so an advertisement was added to make up for it.
Today's evening paper came out very late, and readers couldn't help but complain, but the one who complained the most was Ruan Xiaochuan. The report he had worked so hard to write was unexpectedly published. He was so angry that he went to the director to protest. The director said that this was the club's decision.
, if you have any opinions, go to the president.
Ruan Xiaochuan was not afraid of tigers when he was born, so he actually went to find the president. The president of the Evening News had worked as a secretary with his grandfather Ruan Mingchuan for a period of time, so he had to be called uncle.
"Xiaochuan, it's not that my uncle is criticizing you. When doing news, you can't just focus on eyeballs and forget about the overall situation. After all, we are a newspaper under the leadership of Huaijiang Daily. We are the mouthpiece of the party and the mouthpiece of the government, not a reactionary newspaper like the New York Times.
"
"But Uncle Wang, the report I wrote is true."
"I have read the report. It is well written, but it is too negative. It will have a very bad impact on the public. Now that information is so advanced, if it spreads to some foreign anti-China websites, it will be very detrimental to us."
Ruan Xiaochuan was silent. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and said, "President, I think the dark side must be exposed. Blind cover-up will only encourage their arrogance. As a journalist, I insist on reporting to the newspaper!"
The president looked at him coldly: "You should seriously consider the consequences."
Ruan Xiaochuan took out his press card and placed it on the president's desk: "I have decided that I will either report to the newspaper or resign."
This time it was the president's turn to be silent. He lit a cigarette and smoked while meditating. Ruan Xiaochuan stood quietly aside waiting for him.
The president finally finished his cigarette and sighed: "Ogawa, you are a real journalist. You can stay with your press card, but the report cannot be published."
"Why?" Ruan Xiaochuan vaguely felt that the president was actually not that stubborn, but had his own reasons.
The president said: "The evening paper cannot publish it, but other newspapers can. Take your manuscript and go to the morning paper to find Baina. She will help you."
"Chief Bai?" Ruan Xiaochuan became excited. Baina is an idol in the industry. The Hongqi Steel Plant incident she reported that year moved countless people to tears. That article was considered the conscience of the press and also Baina's career.
The masterpiece of his career.
Moreover, Baina's background is very unusual. Her uncle is Bai Ming, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Propaganda.
