Ballistic Silence of Special Years

In the Army Propaganda Department, Officer Huang held today's military newspaper in his hand and read it again and again.

The above is the news of Group A Army. It is about the innovative training method of a certain brigade of Group A Army. It has cooperated with the military industry department to conduct research. In response to the requirements of the officers and soldiers of the grassroots combat troops, a batch of equipment has been modified and innovated in line with actual combat. It has now entered the stage of experimental deployment.

Officer Huang read it several times, sighed, threw the newspaper aside, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a deep sip of strong tea.

His real name is Huang Jinjin, 27 years old, the rank of captain, and a propaganda officer. He was originally the officer of the propaganda section of a brigade of the D Group Army below, but his pen is very sharp, so he is called "a pen".

Speaking of which, Officer Huang did not live up to the title of "a pen". When he was serving in a certain brigade, he often had articles and reports published in newspapers, and Officer Huang was usually a lover of poetry and liked to compose poems. There is a seat in the Poetry Association, which can be regarded as a young talent.

Because of this, Officer Huang had a great reputation and was soon seconded to the Army Propaganda Department.

The stage is high and big. Officer Huang is full of ambition and vows to shine in this new position and make new achievements.

Of course, as a propaganda officer, the main job is to write reports on the advanced deeds of the group army, embellish them with writing, and publish them in military newspapers.

On the first day of his secondment here, the director asked him to talk to him in the office. The conversation lasted for 10 minutes. Officer Huang was very satisfied with his performance on the spot. It could be seen that the director was also very satisfied with him.

When it arrived, the director asked before leaving: "Tell me, why do you want to do propaganda work?"

Officer Huang talked on and on for a full 3 minutes, expressing his own opinions, such as what good wine is afraid of deep alleys, what propaganda work is related to the overall work, what is the bridge to connect residents closely, and what is the key to establishing a good image...

Anyway, I have said everything I can think of.

The director sat opposite the desk, nodding frequently, smiling kindly.

At the end of the speech, the director smiled meaningfully and said, "I'm afraid it's not comprehensive, right? At least a little bit is missing."

Officer Huang was terrified immediately, wondering what he had missed just now?

Think about it carefully, not really.

I have spent a lot of time studying the theories in the books, not to mention being able to memorize them backwards, at least I can recite them thoroughly.

Missed that point?

Just as he was deep in thought, the director finally gave the answer with a smile.

"Propaganda work is also a record."

He said.

"Grass snakes gray lines, ants leave marks. Let me ask you, are the grassroots officers and soldiers working hard?"

Officer Huang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately: "Of course it's hard work."

The director smiled and said: "Then you know that they are working hard, do others know? Even if others generally know that they are working hard, they also know why they work hard? So we need propaganda officers like us to write and record what we have done. Publish it, let everyone know why you have to defend your home and country, and why you have to endure hardship and dedication. Right?” …

Officer Huang suddenly realized: "The director is still capable. I still have to study hard. There is too much difference. I only know the theory in books, but I still lack practical work experience."

The director waved his hand kindly: "It's not that serious. It's all accumulation. You'll work here for a long time, and you'll gradually understand. Remember, there is your desk in the office, and your pen is your weapon. Your desk is your stage, work hard!"

When he came out of the director's office that day, Officer Huang thought about it all day, and when he returned to the dormitory, he lay on the bed and was still thinking about every word the director said.

I am seconded temporarily because there is a shortage of people in the department. If you do a good job here, have many works and reports, and have quality and influence, it is not difficult to stay here.

Going up to a higher platform and looking back at his previous position, Officer Huang felt that he was not on the same level anyway.

Therefore, he told himself to work hard, to work hard, to be dedicated, to be conscientious, and to make some achievements on the stage of his own desk.

However, I don't know what's going on, since Director Huang officially started working in the Propaganda Department, his inspiration is like a dry spring, and he can no longer squeeze out any articles that catch people's attention, and his keen sense of touch seems to have become Slow, the news captured by others can grasp the central value, but no matter how I write, it seems that I have not written on the point. Reports and articles are like pigeons that know the way. No matter how they are sent out, they will be returned. The editor is always one word-lack of news value and sparkle.

Hey!
How is this going?

Officer Huang couldn't figure it out.

I seem to have written like this before, and it was often published in the newspapers, but now I write like this, but I don’t use it?

He thought about it and put the problem on the editor's head.

Officer Huang thought that maybe there was a change of staff, the taste was different, or maybe he was a stranger, and the new editor didn't know him, so the adoption rate plummeted.

However, this situation made Officer Huang very anxious.

I have been here on secondment for half a year, seeing the days go by without any grades, will I be sent back to the brigade?
It's scary to think about.

When he left, he said harsh words. When he said goodbye to a few good colleagues, he vowed with pride and ambition to break out a new world in the group army. On the day he left, he jumped into the car and stretched out his hand towards The former colleagues waved vigorously and shouted: "Brothers, goodbye! Come and find me in the army when you are free!"

Although he didn't say it clearly, he was obedient and listened to the sound. Who knew that Officer Huang had no intention of turning back.

If it is really returned...

Every time Officer Huang thought of this, he felt inexplicably upset.

At this moment, he was staring at the computer in a daze in the office, his mind wandering too far, when he suddenly heard someone calling himself.

"Officer Huang."

"Huh?" He suddenly returned to his seat, and turned his head to see that it was the non-commissioned officer Xiao Tu who was in charge of situation collection in the agency.

Xiao Tu is the second phase, called Tu Xiaoan.

He was also seconded from the lower authorities. He used to be a clerk, but later he contributed too many articles. He also took the status of a non-staff reporter in the military newspaper, so he was promoted to a non-commissioned officer, and was directly seconded to work in the Propaganda Department. . …

But Xiao Tu is much better than him. He got a transfer order in less than a year after working here, and now he is a member of the Propaganda Department of Zhenger.

Compared with Xiao Tu, he has not confirmed his identity yet.

"Xiao Tu, what do you want me to do?"

Xiao Tu held a document in his hand and placed it on Officer Huang's desk.

"This is a newsletter from the travel newspaper below. The director said it will be handled by you."

Officer Huang picked up the materials and asked Xiao Tu: "Is it the communication sent by the correspondent of that brigade?"

Correspondents are very common in various grassroots units, not limited to government agencies and propaganda departments, they can be anyone, from combat squads, logistics, literature and art, and even hospitals.

Correspondents in the army play a very important role. They can get in touch with the first-hand real-life deeds, and they can even play the role of follow-up reports at certain times.

For example, if a warship is going to escort, it is impossible for every ship to have reporters from the military newspaper. After all, manpower is limited.

But there might be a correspondent on board, the correspondent kind of a contributing activist, with a pen and an interest in newsgathering and reporting.

In this way, if the military newspaper or a higher-level news organization wants to report news on the ship, the role of the ship's correspondent will come into play.

This is why people often see on TV that some soldiers with the rank of non-commissioned officer can appear on the TV screen, and the one indicated on the screen is the special correspondent of a certain news organization.

"It's from the Tiger Brigade." Xiao Tu said, "It's really rare!"

"The tiger brigade?" Of course Officer Huang knew that this was the special warfare brigade established in the army last year, and the D Group Army did not have such a unit before.

But Officer Huang has been here for more than half a year, and there are many newsletters from other brigades, but the Tiger Brigade is a strange thing, not many.

Officer Huang had heard that the brigade commander, surnamed Zhuang, was a special war fighter. After he came here, he wanted to go to the Tiger Brigade to dig some material, but he didn't expect to call. The people from the Tiger Brigade said they didn't Hope to accept too many interviews and reports, which has something to do with their confidentiality.

Confidentiality?
God!

Officer Huang was very upset.

The big deal is to deal with it in words, wouldn't the confidentiality be implemented?

He really has never met a chief officer who doesn't like to promote his troops.

It seems that the reason why the Tiger Brigade is so weird is because their brigade commander himself is a weird person.

Is the sun out in the west today?
The tiger brigade, which has always been low-key, actually sent someone to write a newsletter and send it to the army?
His interest suddenly came up, and he quickly opened the manuscript.

After reading it, he slapped the table and jumped up excitedly from the chair, startling Xiao Tu beside him.

"Good material! This article is finished, I can get him published in the entire army!"

After thinking about it, he added: "No, it's the highest-level news magazine!"
