"Shanghai Financial News" is affiliated to the Shanghai Branch of the State Council. It was first published in 1991. With the approval of the Press and Publication Bureau, it was officially distributed at home and abroad the next year. It has been eight years since its first publication.
As one of the three major financial newspapers distributed in the country, although it is located in a corner of Shanghai and Hainan, it carries the name of the National Society and is very well-known throughout the country. It is now a weekly magazine with 16 pages and a circulation of about 300,000 copies.
, has become one of the professional economic newspapers with the highest circulation in the country.
"Have you seen the ranking?" Editor-in-chief Bao Zheng was sitting behind the desk. He was almost buried in the materials, magazines, and newspapers on the desk.
Unlike another Bao Zheng with the same name, this "Bao Zheng" is about forty years old, with a fair complexion and half white hair, but a friendly face, more like a Maitreya Buddha. There are more than 140 people in the newspaper office.
Everyone in the team respected him, "What are your ideas?" He raised his head from the pile of materials.
"Try hard to get first place next month." Peng Bo straightened his body and expressed his position loudly.
"Nonsense, bragging." Bao Zheng put the cup gently on the table and immediately became serious.
Peng Bo smiled. He knew that Lao Bao never lectured others, and even his stern face was only temporary. "A reporter who doesn't strive for first place is not a good reporter." He looked at Lao Bao, winked and said, "Become a good reporter before you can sit down."
Your position."
Lao Bao's articles are famous throughout the country. When he was a reporter, many important articles were praised by the press and forwarded by the national media. This sentence was also the exact words he emphasized in the small meeting at the conference. This move really scratched his itch.
, Bao Zheng smiled, "Go."
Peng Bo smiled and picked up his water cup made of cans and poured boiling water for Bao Zheng.
"Xiao Peng, we all graduated at the same time, and we are family members behind closed doors. Although you have only worked for a month and are still following the master, you still have to be ranked." Bao Zheng said seriously.
Peng Bo knew that the newspaper office, from leaders to business departments and administrative and operating departments, had clearly defined job responsibilities, linked them to economic interests, and formulated corresponding reward and punishment measures. In this newspaper office, no one "eats from the big pot."
"We are a national society, and the treatment is good. There are many people who want to join. Whether you can stay or not depends entirely on yourself."
"I understand, editor-in-chief." The salary Bao Zheng said was his internship salary of just over a thousand years ago. Of course, the salary of reporters in the agency is much higher than that of their counterparts in this city.
"Work hard and don't embarrass your alma mater." Bao Zheng smiled and stood up, "Write more articles to let the club know who you are and let Shanghai know who you are. Our articles will affect Shanghai and the whole country.
of."
Peng Bo had an idea, and the window lattice paper seemed to be slowly opened. The question of what he wanted to do after being reborn for a month seemed to have finally been answered.
"In China, in Shanghai, who am I?" he repeated silently.
Well, youth is useless if you are not famous. Only when you are famous can you have opportunities. Opposite me, shouldn’t I also start a big project?!
"Yes, you have to form your own style. It's the same to learn from the master, but it's the same to think about it yourself." Bao Zheng was very happy to see his thoughtful look, but what Bao Zheng thought was not the same as what Peng Bo thought.
Something happened.
Bang bang——
Someone knocked on the door and came in to reimburse business trip expenses. Bao Zheng signed his name and asked casually, "Old Li, do you want to buy a house?"
"In Shanghai, the only thing is the location. Do you know how to buy a house? Those who don't buy a house will definitely regret it!" Peng Bo did not leave. He imitated the old Li's Shanghai accent and said with a smile.
"You little red guy, you know how to cut it! Editor-in-chief, Changshou Road is only 3,800 yuan. The south-facing price of the sixth floor of Jinyang Building is only 4,500 yuan. The unit price of Gubei Jinhong Building is 4,080 yuan. The unit price of Longbai City Garden in the western suburbs is 4,168 yuan.
Yuan..." It must be said that people in Shanghai are very sensitive to numbers.
Peng Bo knew that in the locations he mentioned, the unit price of sub-new houses in the surrounding areas was 70,000.
"I suggest you buy a house in Hudong. Maybe we will move to Hudong next year." Bao Zheng said with a smile.
"Ara has inquired about Donggou Qicun, the unit price is 2,048-2,318 yuan, and the down payment is only 9,000 yuan!!!" This is not bad, it is still in Hudong, and the unit price of sub-new houses in the surrounding area is also 50,000 yuan.
Well, compared to today, houses in Shanghai in 1998 were just cabbage prices!
This year, just past July, the "Notice on Further Deepening the Reform of the Urban Housing System and Accelerating Housing Construction" was issued, which stopped welfare housing allocation and changed it to commercialization.
Since then, a new era has begun - the era of real estate has arrived!
"Have you bought a house?" replaced "Have you eaten?" and became the new greeting for reporters and editors in the press. However, the welfare housing allocation did not end. At that time, most people in Shanghai and Hainan were still waiting and watching. Many colleagues in the press
They are also waiting and watching, but they do not realize that their lives will be significantly changed due to this policy.
Even Mr. Han, who became famous after participating in the New Concept Essay Contest next year, told his mother-in-law that the house price had doubled and he could not buy it. It would soon fall to below 1,000.
"You have to buy it!" Peng Bo said.
Bao Zheng picked up the cup and said slowly, "I have to buy a house, and Xiao Peng needs to buy it even more. Like me,..." He paused deliberately and changed his tone, "I choose to buy a car. I heard that in November, Buick
Century is offline." He smiled proudly.
Peng Bo raised his eyebrows and said, "Editor-in-Chief, don't say I didn't remind you. Twenty years later, don't regret it too much!"
"Go, you little red guy!" Bao Zheng picked up a newspaper and was about to throw it at Peng Bo. Peng Bo hurriedly smiled and ran out the door.
"What did the editor-in-chief say?" After leaving the door, master Jiang Yiying came up to him, looking worried about his apprentice.
"Old Bao said that I want to let the company know who I am, let Shanghai know who I am, and let me work hard and become the chief editor in the future." Peng Bo smiled nonchalantly.
"Yeah, he says this to everyone." Jiang Yiying felt relieved, "But you also have to work hard. I will go out with me in the morning to interview a foreign article. It is tentatively titled "Foreign Banks Enter Hudong", and you will be the main writer."
…
As night falls, the lights in the tube building of Guangchang Apartment are brightly lit, and the sound of housewives making dinner fills the entire courtyard.
Peng Bo was single and unwilling to start a group of his own. After eating outside, he came back with a bag of popsicles in his hand, and a group of children immediately gathered around him.
The "Three Brothers of Light" are the most popular cold drinks in Shanghai and Hainan in this era. Salt water, red bean, and mung bean are the most popular cold drinks in Shanghai and Hainan for generations.
"Xiao Peng, buy popsicles for the children again!"
"Xiao Peng, come here and have a drink with me!"
"I ordered wontons, come here and have a bowl!"
Peng Bo nodded hurriedly in agreement. Although the conditions here are not ideal, the neighbors live in harmony. Just like in the movie "Kung Fu", if you find someone, just shout downstairs.
After dinner, residents after a busy day begin their leisure life. The neighbors next door hum loudly pop songs, the noise of the young couple opposite, the cry of children, the sound of old people playing mahjong... gather in the Tongzi Building, and the stories that happen every day in the Tongzi Building
It is also a topic that the neighbors talk about.
It’s too hot and I can’t sleep. Everyone is enjoying the cool air outside. The deck chairs and mats are filled with neighbors waving fans. Buying a house is still the most popular topic these days, and the popularity remains unabated.
"Ala's monthly salary is 980, and my wife's monthly salary is 700. We have problems eating. How can we afford to buy a house?"
Peng Bo shook his fan. This salary is indeed not high. Today he interviewed one of the first batch of people to enter a foreign bank. Her monthly salary is already 8,000 yuan, which is eight times his own. Of course, in Guangchang Apartment, 50,000 yuan
There are many people who can't get it.
"Houses in Huxi are cheap, you can go to Huxi!"
"Is that the countryside, or is it a rural place like Beicai?"
"Then you can only gnaw at your old age..."
The neighbors were having a lively discussion, and Peng Bo was lying on the mat, planning his future.
He had graduated more than a month ago, and his salary was barely enough to live on. He had no relatives and no one to rely on in Shanghai, and his family in Qinwan, Shanhai Province, had no money. If he wanted to get ahead, he had to rely on himself!
But in this place, housing in Shanghai is expensive and living there is not easy!
"Let the community and Shanghai know who you are!" Bao Zheng's words rang in his ears again. Just as he was thinking about it, his neighbor Xiao Liu asked him, "Xiao Peng, have you considered buying a house?"
"I've thought about it. I'm considering buying the Guangchang Apartment. You all will leave and I will live alone." Peng Bo took the watermelon handed over by Xiao Liu's wife.
"Just kidding, we all want to leave. I wonder if we can move out of this tube building in this life?" Xiao Liu's wife smiled and rolled her eyes at him.
Peng Bo's heart moved. There was a scene in the TV series "Snail House" more than ten years later. The tube building rented by Haiping was to be demolished. An old woman who had lived in the tube building all her life cried with joy and said to Haiping: In my whole life, my wife has never died.
I cried like this. When my wife passed away, there were a whole room of children crying, but what I thought was: From now on, I can finally sleep with my legs straightened out!
Alas, I must try my best to straighten my legs when sleeping and straighten my waist when walking. I want to stand firm in my workplace. I want to let Shanghai know who Allah is!
In the heat, he fell into a deep sleep, but he had already thought about what he would do tomorrow.
