under the spotlight

Chapter 122

The light rain was pattering, and the two of them drove the car in a relaxed and leisurely manner.

During this period of time, Lu Beicen and Jiang Zhongze have been getting along, and she has gradually withdrawn the initial high-level guard. In addition, in the process of teaching Jiang Zhongze Chinese, she found that this difficult person actually lives in his heart. With a naughty heart, occasionally encountering some hard-to-remember Chinese pinyin syllables, she would really play tricks like a child, and even deliberately find other excuses to disrupt her rhythm.

Seeing that Lu Beicen was in a good mood and his face was soft, Jiang Zhongze joked with a smile: "How about it, does it feel like when I met a teacher I didn't like very much when I was young, I secretly skipped class with my friends and slipped out to play?" ?”

Lu Beicen was stunned, and then laughed: "It turns out that this is how it feels to skip class and go out to play. No wonder there are always people who like to do it. However, from your tone, you did it when you were young?"

Jiang Zhongze shook his head with a slight smile: "I'm just being blatant, just like today, you are a little abnormal today, are you angry?"

"That's not the case, I just don't know how to chat with such a little girl, and I can't resist that aunt's strong curiosity about you, so I fled in despair." Lu Beicen also joked back.

"Little girl, how much older are you than her?" Jiang Zhongze smiled helplessly.

"A person's actual age and mental age can't be absolutely equal, right?"

"It's true, girls of your age spend most of their personal time shopping and dressing up, and your hobby is cooking, tsk tsk, it's really different!"

"It's not a hobby, it's just a need for life. When I was a child, my adoptive mother opened a restaurant for a while, but after the busy work every day, I was too tired to eat. She was very thin at that time. Awesome, I go to the restaurant every day after evening self-study, and when she finishes her work and go home with her, I will make some noodles and rice cake soup by myself every day in the name of being hungry, forcing her to eat some with me .”

"Later, when we came to the family here, our parents were both on the rise in their careers. They were very busy every day. Basically, it was just me and Ah Hao at home. Ah Hao was sometimes naughty, and the meals cooked by his aunt did not suit his taste. , he just dumped it all into the trash can, and then he ate some potato chips and bread to make him full. Slowly turn into asking auntie to prepare all the dishes, and I will fry them."

When Lu Beicen talked about the days that were not so good in the past, he didn't have much resentment, but seemed peaceful and warm. Jiang Zhongze looked at her expression and asked softly, "Your adoptive mother lives alone now?"

"Well, in Xiajiang, I'm much happier now than before. I play cards with my neighbors every day, and dance in the square at night. I look pretty good. Don't talk about that, let's interview Mr. Jiang, you look so evil, and your family background You are all capable, and you can be regarded as a golden bachelor, why do you think that little girl is using you as a stepping stone?"

Regarding Lu Beicen's gossip, Jiang Zhongze was actually very happy. At least she was not like before, never asking, nor curious about anything about him.

"What she wants is to go out and settle down. If there are no accidents, I should stay in China for a long time. This is a contradiction. Moreover, regardless of whether there are these contradictions, I have no habit of rejecting all comers. , a waste of time."

"You mean falling in love is a waste of time? At your age, don't you never fall in love? Or, you don't like girls, and that's not right. With your conditions, you want to find a man It's not hard to be friends."

Seeing the excitement and curiosity on Lu Beicen's face, Jiang Zhongze couldn't help laughing out loud: "It's a pity that you don't write novels with your brain circuit. By the way, I always forgot to ask you, someone donated money for Yu Lan's medical expenses." ?"

"Of course, you have underestimated the energy in our stage, and you will have surgery in two days." Lu Beicen looked proud, thought for a while and asked: "You don't want to donate too, do you?" ?”

"If someone donates, I won't join in the fun. There is no need to add something to the cake."

"That's what you said, Mr. Jiang, you know what it means to do good deeds in a timely manner, right?"

The two talked and laughed and drove the car to the largest bookstore in the downtown area, found an exquisite Chinese restaurant for lunch, and then took an umbrella and crossed the overpass to the opposite bookstore.

Even if it’s raining, because it’s the weekend, the flow of people is still very dense. There are some gadgets on the overpass, there are also stalls selling socks, and there are homeless musicians singing with a speaker. The most people are begging on their knees. .

The first beggar the two met was a woman with a disfigured face. She was sitting on the outermost side of the overpass wearing sunglasses. It simply wrote that no one in the family was burned by the fire, and life was unsustainable. The other card said don't be fooled by the liar asking for money, and the one lying down is pretending to be sick.

Jiang Zhongze and Lu Beicen couldn't help laughing, begging was fighting each other, it was rare to see each other, the two couldn't help but wonder what the state of the one in front would be like, walked over and saw a woman was lying on the grass behind On it, covered with a quilt, in front of him was a young man with pimples on his face and wearing glasses, with a dull face and dull eyes, kneeling on the ground and staring blankly at the front...

On the ground in front of him were medical records and video files, which introduced in detail that the woman had cancer, and the family was destitute because of treating her, and the young man himself dropped out of school and so on.

Lu Beicen pursed his lips, watching the passers-by in a hurry, and no one gave them money. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the woman lying behind was obviously a humanoid machine, and the purpose was to ask for some money.

Jiang Zhongze pulled Lu Beicen and signaled her to go forward: "If this disease is real, there is no cure. With the current level of medical treatment, such advanced cancer, even if you spend money on it, you won't hear the response."

Lu Beicen nodded: "I think what the person in front said may be true, young boy, what's wrong with doing something. Look at the person on the trailer over there. Our colleagues have exposed it before. After many children were abducted, their legs were crippled without treatment, and then deformed, and they were dragged to the street to beg..."

Jiang Zhongze glanced from the disabled beggar boy on the trailer to Lu Beicen's face. Seeing her calm expression with a trace of coldness, he couldn't help but wondered: "I thought that people in your industry are very passionate."

Lu Beicen was stunned for a moment before a bitter smile appeared on his face: "Maybe at the beginning, they were full of enthusiasm, but after a long time, they will gradually calm down and become more cold-blooded." , this is because I have seen a lot, and the blood has turned into a well-thought-out and orderly attack."

"However, I have not yet reached this level. I just heard from my predecessors that those colleagues who do investigative journalism are the ones who really turn their perspectives to the dark side of society. struggle."

The country is developing and the society is going to progress. Someone always needs someone to discover some new disorderly affairs, so that more people can understand that for ordinary people, they can start from themselves, strengthen their awareness of prevention, and at a higher level, It is to formulate new laws and regulations to regulate crackdowns.

For example, after the case of abducting children and begging for begging was revealed, many enthusiastic people in the past stopped giving generously when they saw such children. It seemed that they were cruel to this individual, but they immediately cut off The financial resources of those black hands behind them can prevent more children from suffering this disaster.

And it directly attracted the attention of relevant departments. Compared with the previous abduction and trafficking of women and children for sale, this is obviously a newer and more cruel criminal method. Children, apparently less and less.

Another example is the gutter oil incident that was exposed by the media back then. They were also colleagues who were doing investigative news. They took a huge risk to capture the first-hand information. After it was broadcast, it caused a huge wave...

In fact, even though he has not been in the industry for a long time, Lu Beicen can feel that when he goes out for interviews, the other party politely compliments the title of uncrowned king, but in fact there is always a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Lu Beicen can now slightly feel the deeper reasons behind these ridicules, because one of the things that the media colleagues often do is to cut off people's wealth, such as the gutter oil incident, such as child trafficking and begging, and many more The disorder exposed by the media is an event of great benefit. In fact, it is cutting off people's fortunes. As the saying goes, cutting off people's fortunes is like killing parents. If such hatred is raised, can it not be full?

The media has only one industry, but it focuses on all walks of life and all walks of life in society. How many people's interests have been touched, and how many people's cheeses have been touched?Being criticized, questioned, and insulted has obviously become the norm.As time goes by, the words of the public make money, and the title of "uncrowned king" of media people is naturally put in quotation marks.

Moreover, in any industry, there will always be a small group of mouse shit that turns the inside information they have into a handle and a tool for making money. Therefore, when many people face the media, they first instinctively resist...

Although these are not disgusting cycles, they actually complicate the industry environment and make interviews, especially interviews with social and negative topics, become a kind of game, but every official media follows the interview Official reporters of the rules know that when making a manuscript, they must be given a fair right to speak, and strive to let even the exposed party have a voice, but it often backfires...

The rain gradually became heavier. Jiang Zhongze and Lu Beicen got off the overpass and opened their umbrellas. The two of them shared an umbrella. Lu Beicen was distracted all the time. Before he knew it, the two of them got closer than ever before...
