Chapter 733 The mouth is made of special materials
"Holy shit! Where is this guy from?" Qin Hai was really shocked.
Ling Shijie was the reporter he asked Guo Qiushi to invite. Back then, in order to expose the shady story of Xiaogang Steel in Dongdaogou Village, this reporter disguised himself as an undercover investigator and was beaten up by the villagers, which led to some rectification of Dongdaogou Village. In Qinhai
It seems that Ling Shijie should hate Xiaogang the most, but the title is obviously wrong.
Without bothering to read the full text, Qin Hai picked up the phone and dialed Guo Qiushi's mobile phone. Qin Hai paid for this mobile phone to provide him with it, so that he could answer Qin Hai's questions at any time while he was in the military hospital.
.
"Hey, Lao Guo, how are you?" Qin Hai greeted with a smile.
"Team Leader Qin...don't you know about my condition? I'm fine a long time ago, but you asked me not to leave the hospital yet. Alas, I have been hiding in the hospital all day and night...and my buttocks have regenerated.
"Guo Qiushi replied with an allusion.
Qin Hai knew that Guo Qiushi was reminding him to make arrangements for him earlier. Qin Hai used pranks to make Guo Qiushi suffer some physical pain, but he avoided the danger of being interrogated by Gao Xuejian and then thrown into the cold palace. In order to compensate Guo Qiushi,
Qin Hai asked the Economic and Trade Commission to come forward and say hello to Yanning Province, requesting recognition and promotion of Guo Qiushi. Yanning Province has promised to give Guo Qiushi a deputy director level at the appropriate time. After Guo Qiushi learned about this, he felt sorry for him.
Qin Hai's last bit of resentment has disappeared, and he just waits impatiently for the official notification of promotion every day.
"You still have to stay for a few more days, but it should be soon. You have to believe in my promise." Qin Hai comforted.
"That's for sure, that's for sure..." Guo Qiushi confessed quickly. No matter how anxious he was, he would not dare to rush Qin Hai blatantly.
After the greetings, Qin Hai got down to the topic and asked: "Lao Guo, let me ask you something, what is going on with Ling Shijie, and whose side is he on?"
"This..." Guo Qiushi hesitated all of a sudden. Even through the phone, Qin Hai couldn't see the day's "Southern Economic Tribune" in front of Guo Qiushi. Before Qin Hai called, Guo Qiushi was
I was worried about how to explain this matter to Qin Hai.
"Team Leader Qin, I want to make a review to you." Guo Qiuyong said in a heavy tone. This is also a common tactic used by grassroots officials to pretend to be dead. "You arranged for me to invite Ling Shijie to Xingchuan for an interview. I did not do a good job in communication.
, leading to serious deviations in the direction of publicity. This is all my responsibility. I am willing to accept it..."
"That's all, Lao Guo, I don't mean to blame you." Qin Hai interrupted Guo Qiushi's long speech. The article had already been published. What's the use of talking about it at this time? What he wanted to know was what Ling Shijie was thinking about.
, a reporter who once exposed the shady story of Xiao Gang. How could he suddenly change his face and become a sympathizer of Xiao Gang?
"Team Leader Qin, this is not surprising." After hearing Qin Hai express his doubts, Guo Qiushi said, "In the past, our county did not pay attention to the governance of Xiaogang. Ling Shijie exposed the shady story of Xiaogang, and the core was to criticize the government for its inaction.
. Now the working group is taking the lead in rectifying small steel companies. He stands on the side of small steel companies, and the core is to criticize the government for random interference. Although the views appear to be different on the surface, the core has not changed..."
"Everything the government does is wrong." Qin Hai understood immediately.
"That's right." Guo Qiushi sighed. He may not be as smart as Qin Hai on other issues, but he is experienced in dealing with reporters. Guo Qiushi knew what kind of bird Ling Shijie was.
For some reporters, it doesn’t matter what the facts are, what matters is how you interpret them. For example, a reporter went to an international summer camp and saw 5 Chinese children and 5 Japanese children inside. When the Chinese children were playing
, Japanese children were reading, so the reporter fell into deep thought: Why are our children not creative? Because they were playing while others were reading. Then the next day, the Japanese children left, and five American children and Chinese children came.
I started reading, and American children were playing, so the reporter once again fell into deep thought: Why are our children not creative? Because they only know how to read, but they don’t know that playing is the process of enlightening wisdom...
The same news can produce different conclusions from another angle. If you don't master this, how can you be a good reporter?
Ling Shijie is such a reporter with an attitude. Last time he heard that the small steel problem in Xingchuan was very serious, so he came to expose it excitedly. In one report, 20% of the reports mentioned small steel business owners, and 80% of them talked about provinces, cities and counties.
How come the three levels of government are slacking off, and how they ignore environmental protection and people's lives for the sake of GDP and political performance.
This time, he received an anonymous call and revealed that the central working group had arrived in Xingchuan to rectify the small steel industry in Xingchuan. At this time, his reporting angle completely changed. He believed that if the last report was followed,
, then cooperating with the actions of the central working group becomes an article praising the government, which has no news value at all. These days, if you want to be seen as a "conscience" journalist, you must confront the government
.If the government says to go east, the scenery in the west will be more beautiful; if the government agrees to go west, you must say that the east is the right way.
With this idea, the focus of Ling Shijie's interview this time was how the central working group brutally enforced the law, how the local people complained, and how the small steel owners could not bear the bullying. When he arrived in Xingchuan, Qin Hai led the law enforcement officers to start the investigation
Ling Shijie witnessed the situation of many small steel plants in trouble due to the inferior steel shipped from overseas, and accumulated a lot of materials. When the villagers of Dongdaogou Village stormed the checkpoint and performed various farces, Ling Shijie felt as if he had found a treasure.
The scene of the peasant woman holding the pesticide bottle was secretly captured by Ling Shijie, and he planned to use it as the title picture of a long newsletter. He even hoped that this photo would win the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism. When it was revealed that the peasant woman was pretending to be dead,
Qin Hai and Guo Qiushi didn't understand these details, but they already understood why Ling Shijie wrote the article like this. Qin Hai regretted it for a moment. If he had known that Ling Shijie was such a person, he shouldn't have let Guo Qiushi expose the information.
, Daqin Group has many of its own "royal" reporters, who use Daqin Group's travel expenses to write whatever they want. If they don't use the existing resources, they insist on looking for wild reporters, and they are beaten.
Qin Hai deserves his face.
"Alas, I'm still too middle-aged..." Putting down the phone, Qin Hai sighed and said to Zhang Xiangqian.
"Second Grade 2? What do you mean?" Zhang Xiangqian clearly had no concept of modern language.
Qin Hai did not answer, but opened the newspaper and began to read Ling Shijie's masterpiece:
"...The 75-year-old Zhang counted the money at home. The money was no longer enough to buy a new school uniform for his grandson. Since the small steel factory in the village was forced to suspend production, more than 200 households in Hengpo Village have lost their money.
The source of life was suddenly interrupted..."
"...Factory Director Liu sat in front of reporters, his honest face full of sorrow. He started his business with a pair of anvils, spent more than ten years frugally, and finally built a small steel company of his own.
Factory, he lived a good life for a few days. But who would have thought that a notice about the management of small steel was like a bolt from the blue, breaking his peaceful life..."
"...Indeed, small steel has the disadvantages of relatively high energy consumption and relatively large pollution, but it has supported the livelihoods of thousands of farmers and fulfilled the entrepreneurial dreams of hundreds of farmer entrepreneurs.
Are the words that officials love, such as energy conservation and environmental protection, really more important than people's jobs..."
"...The reporter does not know the stubborn peasant woman in the photo, but the reporter believes that if she had not been deeply wronged, she would never have left her elderly parents-in-law and innocent and lovely children behind, and raised her hand in despair.
Glass bottles filled with highly toxic pesticides..."
"I just found out today that I have been working on materials for more than ten years. Compared with these reporters, I am still ashamed." Qin Hai put down the newspaper and sighed: "The mouths of these reporters are made of special materials.
, turning their hands into clouds, turning their hands into rain, whatever words pass through their mouths will have a magical flavor."
"Isn't this the indifference between right and wrong?" Zhang Xiangqian became more and more irritated. He wanted to jump up and tear the newspaper to pieces several times. Anyone who has seen these steel products with his own eyes knows that these small steel plants have no moral integrity at all.
They are just using fake and shoddy goods to make illegal profits. Such a group of people, when described by reporters, have turned into gentle and cute little sheep. Is there any truth to this?
"Team leader Qin, this matter needs to be reported to the superiors. The reporter is completely confusing right and wrong. Such reporting will cause great passiveness to our work." Zhang Xiangxiang reminded.
Qin Hai shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's useless to complain. These people are using the banner of press freedom. The more you greet them through higher-level agencies, the more enthusiastic they will be."
"What should we do?" Zhang Xiangqian was a little confused. "Look, he said he would continue to follow up on the report. I guess the bosses of the small steel mills will be even more excited when they see such reports."
Qin Hai thought for a few minutes and then said: "I'll ask him to talk directly. It's best to solve it in a peaceful way. If he insists on going against us..."
At this point, he chuckled and said no more. It is true that journalists are the uncrowned kings, but wealthy businessmen with hundreds of billions of assets are not vegetarians. Even in Western countries that most flaunt press freedom, the media
How many can win against capital? (To be continued.)
