Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

"Time", also known as "Time Weekly" and "Time Magazine", has been published for nearly a hundred years. ▲𝐺𝑜𝑜𝑔𝑙𝑒 Search for 𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑐𝑜𝑚Read▲

It can be said that there is no limit to the content. As long as it is a "big event", it can be the content of politics, sports, music, and academia. There are no taboos.

It may have a long history, it may be relatively serious, it may have far-reaching influence.

But essentially, it is still a mainstream magazine dominated by the West, and can even be said to be the most famous magazine in the world.

This means that its influence is large enough, and it also means that

It is a magazine with "attitude" and cannot be "pure".

Of course, as a weekly, there is a lot of content, and it would be boring if every piece of content contained personal information.

But after careful consideration, Zhou Rui decided to accept the so-called "exclusive interview."

The recent affairs with Ahan are still fermenting, and it is foreseeable that there will be another disturbance in the future.

Now that we have a little more public opinion chips in our hands, it will be beneficial without any harm.

In addition, Zhou Rui also took the initiative to report to the organization, and it would be more appropriate to accept interviews and say hello.

I also casually asked if there was anything I needed to express or pay attention to.

If you are carrying private goods, I can do it too!

The news that Zhou Rui agreed to accept an exclusive interview was conveyed to Time magazine by Gan Yuan.

Due to Zhou Rui's request, he hoped to complete the interview before the Spring Festival, so everything moved forward very quickly.

In two days, the two parties agreed on the interview process and took one day to fly.

On the fourth day, the interview team came to Shanghai.

The interesting thing is that this interview team came with two different interviewees.

They are all in Shanghai.

One is Zhou Rui.

The other one is Zhang Richeng who returned to China.

On the day of the interview, Zhou Rui did not prepare much.

Get up as usual, do "Six Qigong" + "Boxing" morning exercises, and then go to 1502 for breakfast, but dress more formally.

Since he didn't take it seriously, Zhou Rui didn't mention it to too many people. The only people who knew that he was going to be interviewed by "Times" today were people from the company.

Li Wenqian slept in a daze. She had been working hard on her second album recently and slept relatively late.

I don’t know if it was Zhou Rui’s illusion, but after moving to 1502, she seemed to have reduced her “activities” and focused more on the “music” itself.

Zhou Rui saw that she had peeled a hard-boiled egg almost to the size of a quail egg, so he snatched it from her hand and helped her peel the eggshell.

Li Wenqian put her chin on the table and looked at Zhou Rui.

Sniffed.

It has no taste at all

This was an illusion that kept popping up in her recently.

I always felt that Zhou Rui smelled good, but when I actually smelled it, I couldn't smell anything.

Li Wenqian looked at Zhou Rui's crisp clothes and said, "Are you wearing a suit today?"

Zhou Rui nodded and said, "There is an interview."

Li Wenqian didn't pay much attention, thinking it was some ordinary media, and said:

"Zhou Rui, let's go watch a movie tonight, the three of us."

Without naming them specifically, Zhou Rui knew which three people the little girl was talking about.

But don’t you think that in this three-person team, you are a bit “outstanding”?

"Zi Yin, have you made an appointment?"

"We made an appointment. She asked me to ask you."

"what movie."

"The Green Hornet! Jay Chou's Hollywood blockbuster! He's the starring role!"

Although he has become a musician himself, after all, Jay Chou has been Li Wenqian's idol since junior high school.

She has been following this movie for a long time!

Zhou Rui stuffed the peeled egg into Li Wenqian's mouth: "I may not have time for that."

Sorry, Jay Chou.

We support the song.

Let’s discuss the movie later.

When arriving at the smart building, many people are already ready.

Gan Yuan confirmed the interview process for the 800th time, while Lin Xiaoxiao was holding a brush and preparing to put on makeup for her boss.

In addition, Bai Xiaoying and the pottery captain who came here specifically for this purpose have also been waiting for a long time.

In addition to them, there are some more "employees" in the building today.

Zhou Rui looked at a few people and said with a smile: "The formation is a bit big."

With a smile on her lips, Gan Yuan was interviewed by the Times. She was happier and more caring than Zhou Rui.

"Mr. Zhou, let's finalize the process with you."

———

The entire interview is divided into two parts.

The first was a language interview, which took place in the large and bright conference room on the fifth floor. The room had been cleared, leaving only two comfortable sofas for discussion.

The language interview consists of two halves, one and a half hours each.

Although only a small part of it was finally published, and it could even be said to be a refined part, the interview process was very long, and there were only about twenty questions that were clearly marked in the process.

Not to mention that there will be situations where people are chatting and thinking divergently.

This was also the link that was most easily "processed" in the past. Smart interviewers will use language and tone to guide them to what they want to hear. Even if there are problems listed in the process, there is still room for maneuver.

After that, there is a photo interview, which can be understood as taking a few photos. In a specific environment, the interviewer will walk out of the conference room.

Both will appear together in the magazine.

Mineba Bailey, interview with female journalist.

Although 30 years old is not too young, being able to undertake exclusive interview work in "Time" magazine can be said to be very good on the road of "journalist".

When she arrived on the fifth floor, she still had a look of shock on her face.

She had done her homework, and there were rumors on the Internet that the technological level of Enlightenment Intelligence Headquarters was far higher than the products sold on the market.

The sources are mixed, some are students who have attended "open days", some are interviewees who have been here.

But when she actually came, I realized that people on the Internet were still being conservative.

She almost thought she was walking into the filming set of the latest sequel to "Terminator".

Whether it was a mechanical dog, a guide drone, or a voice-controlled elevator, they all made her feel like a dream.

The original attitude of looking at Chinese enterprises on behalf of "Western civilization" has disappeared when arriving from the first floor to the fifth floor.

But there was more excitement in my heart about this interview.

She had a hunch that this interview might not be very important, but the person being interviewed would be important for a long time to come.

Many great journalists left their names in the media industry because of a personal friendship with an important figure of the era.

So when she saw the tall figure in a formal suit in the conference room, who was reading a book to pass the time, who was the protagonist of this interview, Mineba Bailey showed her brightest smile.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, nice to meet you."

The accent is strange, but at least the grammar is correct. According to Gan Yuan, who often interviews Asian figures, he has mastered Chinese.

As for the language used in interviews, Zhou Rui has no presets. He prefers Chinese as a habit. Anyway, he will send it to the final draft for confirmation. If the other party does not agree, it will not publish it. "Times" is quite strict in this regard. Don’t be afraid of being manipulated in “translation”.

"Hello, Ms. Bailey, you and your team can make some preparations first."

There are five people in the interview team. In addition to Minerba, there is an assistant, a lighting engineer, a cameraman, and a photographer.

While shaking hands, Zhou Rui turned on his "alert vision", but didn't notice anything unusual.

Bai Xiaoying and the potter on the side stood quietly in the corner, like ordinary staff.

The conference room had been emptied so that the reporter team could deploy various equipment and go about their business. Zhou Rui continued to read.

While applying makeup, Minerba peeked at Zhou Rui.

What does it smell like to be young, tall, and healthy? It doesn’t seem like perfume

Handsome isn't that great, and she's not sensitive to Asian looks.

Well, mature journalists will find their own way to open up the situation.

Minerva lowered the inner layer of her clothes by a few centimeters, revealing a rounded groove.

Interview tips that are not worth mentioning

Asia is still a little more conservative, which affects her performance. If the interview is in Europe, it is not like she has never been in a vacuum.

Not for temptation, but to divert attention and make it easier to get the truth you want.

About half an hour later, the group was finally ready. The camera captured two sofas in the frame, with the floor-to-ceiling glass on one side of the conference room in the background.

Simple, serious, and appropriate.

"Mr. Zhou, I'm glad you accepted our interview."

After an opening statement, Minerva leaned forward slightly to adjust her angle.

In the side camera, everything was normal with her, but she believed that Zhou Rui could see what she wanted him to see.

But it is a pity that Zhou Rui's eyes did not fluctuate, and the attractiveness that Minerba was proud of did not count.

At this time, Zhou Rui's mind was: Is the old white man Kuaha and this woman 30 years old?

And if freckles appear on the chest, are they still called freckles?
