Chapter 43 It’s time to break the ice

"As early as a few months ago, bell-bottom pants have become popular in several coastal cities."

Jiang Shan's words continued, and the two brothers walked aside silently.

"Actually, chicken coop headbands and sunglasses also became popular at the same time. Both men and women are wearing them, but they are much more fashionable than us."

According to the description given by Lao San, Jiang Hai and Jiang He immediately imagined it in their minds.

Jiang Hai couldn't help but shook his head: "How can this look good?"

Jiang He was categorical: "Even if you kill me, I won't wear bell-bottom pants."

Jiang Shan smiled: "You don't look down on them, and they don't look down on us either."

Jiang Shan is right.

At this time, in several cities across the Xiangjiang River, young people with long hair, wearing bell-bottom pants and arrowhead leather shoes could be seen everywhere.

These "trendy clothes" desperately pursue individuality and release their inhibitions.

This feat was completely ignored by the conservative forces.

Neither a man nor a woman, a demon inside a demon, what kind of behavior can it be?

As a result, a group of uncles and aunties suddenly appeared in the streets and alleys. They desperately pursued individuality and released their inhibitions.

Subsequently, the two teams launched a fierce tug-of-war.

Generally speaking, the elders and aunts who are experienced in field control always have the upper hand.

Under their momentum, the parents and teachers of these young people began to hold scissors and guard their homes and schools...

Just when these little fashionistas were helpless, October came and "Looking Homeward" and "The Hunt" came.

At first, not long after the two Japanese movies were released, the war on bell-bottom pants spread from the coast to the whole country.

The leaders of Wuhan University, where Yi Zhongtian is located, showed a high degree of vigilance and specially put up eye-catching slogans:

"Can bell bottoms sound the clarion call for modernization?"

Yi Zhongtian immediately took the lead and united with a group of students to write on the slogan:

"Excuse me, what kind of pants can make noise?"

There are a lot of things torn apart...

When a contradiction reaches the top very quickly, it will turn from the peak to the bottom.

What really saved these young people was "The Hunt" and "Looking Homeward".

However, the media is the behind-the-scenes helper in solving the problem.

At this time, Ba/Jin published an article in "Da Gong Bao": "Talk about Wangxiang", which had already spoken out for bell-bottom pants from the side.



Jiang Shan glanced at the elder brother next to him, tutted and said:

"Speaking of which, you are also the editor-in-chief of a newspaper. In the face of a diverse society, do you have no tolerance at all?"

Jiang Hai did not admit this: "They can wear it if they want, and I don't stop them."

Jiang Shan: “I didn’t stop or support you.”

Jiang Hai: "Why should I support them? Besides, whether they wear bell-bottom pants or not, what does it have to do with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shan and Jiang He stopped at the same time and looked straight at the boss.

After taking two more steps forward, Jiang Hai finally realized:

"Yes, it really has something to do with me."

Only then did he remember that just over ten minutes ago, he was also a member of the bell-bottom team.

While talking, the three brothers walked to the door of Nanjingdong Road City Library.

The steps stopped again.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening, but the library was still brightly lit and packed with seats.

Most of these people are around 20 years old, with faces full of anxiety and eyes full of hope.

This year is the second year since the college entrance examination was resumed. It was also this year that the country gradually resumed and added 55 colleges and universities.

Young people's enthusiasm for learning is unprecedentedly high.

"These people are trying to grab a good seat in the library,"

This time, Jiang Hai spoke:

"At 6 o'clock in the morning, I brought my own dry food and lined up. I stayed there all day. I didn't even bother to take a sip of water in order not to go to the toilet."

Jiang He and Jiang Shan nodded, this situation has been going on for several months.

The second brother Jiang He was puzzled: "Why don't they study at home? Why don't they just join in the fun?"

"Maybe it's the learning atmosphere here." Jiang Hai sighed.

Jiang Shan immediately scolded him: "What do the reporters at your newspaper do for a living?"

I can't understand this little thing about Pujiang. Are tabloids really used to copying big newspapers?

"Is there any need to inquire?" Jiang Hai asked curiously:

"The college entrance examination was resumed last year, and students all over the country are working hard overtime. Even my mother knows this, don't you know?"

Jiang Shan didn't say anything else, he just felt that Pujiang Daily's loss was justified.

The three of them quickened their pace. They were already late anyway, and their faces were all exposed.

After entering the editor-in-chief's office, I greeted Master Ma on the internal phone.

By the way, I asked his old man for help and handed over a stack of old newspapers in the drawer to Editor Cai.

At this moment, the three brothers from the Jiang family were sitting in different positions in the editor-in-chief's office.

The boss Jiang Hai looked at Jiang Shan. Although he had questions, he saw that he was silent and stopped talking.

I guess in my heart, this guy should be waiting for Cai Wensheng!

Jiang He, who came to the newspaper office for the first time, silently looked around the entire office.

Although it was very simple, it still made him a little embarrassed.

Jiang Shan was still sitting on a single sofa covered with gray cloth.

After reading that day's "Pujiang Daily", he shook his head and said:

"The news these days is becoming less and less interesting."

"What?" Jiang Hai asked back: "You are so looking forward to something big happening to the country?"

"I didn't say domestic."

"Not even abroad!" Jiang Hai also had a newspaper in his hand: "Besides, what big things can happen now?"

Jiang Shan closed the newspaper in his hand:

"Boss, you are the head of a company, and the advertising business is about to be restarted. Do you know what manufacturers rely on to choose advertising placement points?"

No matter how bad Jiang Hai is, he still understands this point of knowledge: "Of course it depends on the circulation of newspapers and periodicals."

"In Pujiang, whose circulation can our newspaper surpass?"

"..." Jiang Hai looked into Jiang Shan's eyes: "Lao San, what exactly did you want to say when you called me here tonight?"

"You are both my eldest brother and my leader," Jiang Shan also looked at the other person: "I want you to stand up!"

At this time, Jiang Hai began to consider, does Jiang Shan also know how to run a newspaper?

Didn’t this newspaper run by itself before?

That’s right, it’s still a loss after all!

"Tell me," Jiang Hai tried to ask, "How should I support myself?"

"First of all, news units are not just squatting in an office. They must take the initiative,"

Jiang Shan goes straight to the point: "News is the lifeblood of newspapers."

Jiang Hai was about to nod, but heard Jiang Shan say again:

"What's hot, what the masses watch."

Jiang Hai was stunned immediately!

Newspapers keep up with current topics. As a journalist, I have long forgotten this truth:

"I know what you mean, but...it's not the time yet."

After Jiang Hai graduated, he was assigned to "Pujiang Daily".

Over the years, the news media knowledge he has learned is limited to books and has never been put into practice in specific work.

Because the news environment at the time did not allow it.

"Actually, it's already time," Jiang Shan said word by word, "It's just that you didn't notice."

At this time, Cai Wensheng, who had been standing at the door for a while, walked in.

He also heard the conversation between the two Jiang brothers just now.

At this moment, Cai Wensheng handed the stack of newspapers in his hand to Jiang Shan.

Jiang Shan unfolded the newspaper directly on his eldest brother's desk.

The other people in the editor-in-chief's office gathered around him in unison.

Later, Jiang Shan began to talk about the ice on paper.

"Any river bed that has been frozen for a long time will have slight cracks before it is completely unblocked,"

Jiang Shan pointed to a piece of news from Renmin Daily on the table and said:

"This is a piece of news I just saw before get off work this morning..."

At the same time, Liu Chuanzhi, who was far away in Yanjing, also noticed the news mentioned by Jiang Shan.
