Liu Shengxing held the camera with one hand and hailed a tricycle by the roadside.

The young man and woman standing behind them also looked puzzled.

"Teacher Liu, does the government still provide financial assistance to this Hope Primary School?"

"Yes, I've never heard of this news before."

The two blinked, completely unaware that there was such a thing as a Hope Primary School in Shuiyun Town.

Not only the two of them, but even Liu Shengxing didn't know.

If he hadn't contacted someone last night and asked around, he wouldn't have known what was so interesting about Shuiyun Town that was worth reporting on.

The three of them headed to the guesthouse where they were staying.

It's already November, and autumn is beginning.

The streets were piled high with withered yellow leaves. As evening approached, Liu Shengxing prepared to take two commune members to get a bowl of hot noodles before going back to discuss with them how to write a report about the Hope Primary School.

Before they could even leave, they encountered an uninvited guest.

A van was parked at the entrance, and a bespectacled man in a blue business suit got out.

Liu Shengxing and his two companions didn't pay any attention. Just as they were about to leave the guesthouse, the other party took the initiative to come up to them.

"Excuse me, are you Editor-in-Chief Liu of the Shancheng Famous Newspaper?"

Liu Shengxing frowned, trying hard to recall.

In his memory, he had never seen this person before.

Upon seeing the staff members following behind him, he realized what was happening and instinctively smiled and shook hands with them.

Hello, who are you?

The man hurriedly introduced himself.

"I am the deputy director of the publicity department of Shuiyun Town. My surname is Zhou, Zhou Weiguo."

"Minister Zhou, hello, what brings you here...?"

Zhou Weiguo moved a few steps away and smiled slightly at Liu Shengxing.

"Oh, what are you saying?"

"Since you have come to our Shuiyun Town, we should naturally follow the proper etiquette for hosts."

"We've already found a place to eat, now we're just hoping that Editor-in-Chief Liu could do us the honor of joining us?"

Liu Shengxing was somewhat puzzled.

Less than half a day after I left Shanyang City, Shuiyun Town learned of my whereabouts.

It can only be said that the other side came prepared this time.

It's most likely that the Shanyang City government tipped them off.

Liu Shengxing had little doubt about this; with the help of the Shuiyun Town government, their work in news gathering would certainly be much easier.

Moreover, the other party is also from the publicity department, and they are very familiar with this kind of work.

In addition, he didn't know much about Shuiyun Town, so having an acquaintance to help him would save him a lot of trouble.

Liu Shengxing led the two into the car, heading towards lunchtime.

At the dinner table, the other party was very accommodating to Liu Shengxing, constantly saying that they would definitely cooperate with Liu Shengxing's work and hoped that the Shancheng Minsheng Daily would give it a good publicity.

Liu Shengxing and the other party clinked glasses and drank, having a very pleasant time.

The next morning, the Shuiyun Town Education Bureau arranged for someone to notify Shitou Village, and Liu Shengxing and his two companions, carrying cameras, embarked on their journey to Shitouren Hope Primary School.

Meanwhile, inside the Shuiyun Town government building, Wang Chengyun stood in the mayor's office, hands behind his back, looking out the window.

Beside him, Zhou Weiguo was reporting on his work from the previous night.

After hearing the introduction, Wang Chengyun smiled with satisfaction and began to guide Zhou Weiguo on his next steps.

"Have someone keep an eye on him these next couple of days."

"I'll ask him to come over tomorrow so we can have a meal together."

"At the dinner, you can cooperate with me and discuss the scenic spots in Shuiyun Town more."

Zhou Weiguo nodded, a bright smile spreading across his face.

Normally, there are hardly any media outlets visiting Shuiyun Town.

Since the construction of this Hope Primary School, many newspapers have come to promote it. They have always treated them well, and every now and then, the media can be seen in the newspapers praising the construction of Shuiyun Town.

If all goes well, with this year's promotional efforts and a slight increase in intensity in the fall, Shuiyun Town should be able to attract a small surge in tourists, bringing considerable benefits to the town.

Wang Chengyun looked out the window, his tone tinged with disdain.

"The people in this Stone Village aren't very nice."

"The matter was handled quite well."

Zhou Weiguo was also constantly flattering him, praising Wang Chengyun's excellent leadership.

Wang Chengyun was overjoyed, and he was extremely happy.

Lin Xiaolu's attitude towards him has changed somewhat in the past two days, and now that the newspapers and media have come, Wang Chengyun feels that he is gradually reaching the pinnacle of his life.

Once he receives recognition at the year-end conference, his promotion is just around the corner.

Thinking of this, Wang Chengyun's mouth almost twisted into a grin.

Meanwhile, on the other side, at the Shuiyun Town Education Bureau.

Wang Xinguo sat calmly in his chair, sipping hot tea, while Sun Zhouzheng across from him felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

"Old Wang, how come you still have the patience to drink tea?"

"The media has arrived, aren't you going to show up?"

"This is a great opportunity."

Wang Xinguo was not in a hurry at all; instead, he comforted Sun Zhouzheng.

"Old Sun, look at you, in such a hurry again! What's the rush!"

Sun Zhou was furious when he saw Wang Xinguo.

The two of them initially agreed to keep a certain distance from Wang Chengyun and see if the Stone Village would pull some strings to get Wang Chengyun away.

But more than half a month has passed, and there has been no movement from Stone Village.

On the contrary, the two deliberately distanced themselves from Wang Chengyun, and were already showing signs of being isolated within the leadership circle of Shuiyun Town.

If things continue like this, Wang Chengyun might not be able to leave first, but their positions might become unstable.
