Chapter 213

Looking at the livid face of their department head, the vice president of the literature club was shocked and wanted to use his eloquence to say, "Listen to my argument!"

But the department head didn't even give him a chance to speak, and directly threw the evidence that Jiang Ning brought in front of him.

It is a good thing for students majoring in journalism to have this news sensitivity, but it is vicious to slander your junior schoolmate with false charges and expose other people's privacy.

Jiang Ning also said with a cold face: "I don't know how I offended this senior brother to allow him to post slanderous messages online without any evidence and violate my privacy. I have asked lawyers to collect all the evidence. I will reserve the right to sue him and report to the police, and ask him to apologize publicly on the Internet and in newspapers to eliminate the impact." She turned to the director of the School of Information Relations, and said with a calm expression: "I heard that the School of Information Relations and the School of International Relations are both applying to establish master's programs in journalism and communication. Even though I am not a journalist, I have heard leaders say on TV that journalists are responsible for the great mission of spreading and promoting our country's culture to the world. I still remember the fifteen words the leader said: 'raise the banner, gather the people's hearts, cultivate new people, promote culture, and display the image'."

She looked coldly at the vice president, whose name she didn't even know and whom she had only met once, and said, "Brother, as a journalist with an important mission in our Beijing University, you used the Internet to slander and spread rumors about a junior sister who had no conflict of interest with you without investigating the situation at all. Brother, ask yourself, do you still remember your mission and responsibility as a journalist? Are you worthy of being a journalist?"

The vice president was stunned when he heard this. When he first entered Kyoto University, he was also full of confidence and entered Kyoto University with a lot of ideals and ambitions. When he first learned journalism, the teacher who taught them journalism did not give them a lecture in the first lesson, but told them about the mission they would shoulder as future journalists.

These are not just slogans, but the real thoughts in the hearts of students and teachers of this era. They want to make their motherland strong and work together to make their motherland more prosperous and powerful. Everyone in every position is working hard for the mission they shoulder.

When did it change?

He entered the literature club with great anticipation, thinking that he had entered a temple of literature lovers and would meet a group of like-minded people. As a result, when he entered the first award selection, he found that among the 25 award-winning articles, 12 articles were written by the president of the literature club, and 10 articles of the remaining 13 articles were written by other core members of the literature club. There were only three good articles that were truly written by people outside the literature club, and they won the lowest awards.

At that moment, he seemed to understand the true meaning of the world all of a sudden. It is not how much talent you have that determines how many awards you can win, but how high your status is and how much voice you have. Then you can get as many awards as you want.

After understanding the true meaning of this society, he seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians. He quickly became like a fish in water in the literature club, allowing him to step on others along the way and become the vice president of the literature club. He was only one step away from becoming the president of the literature club. In the future, many related awards would be judged by him. He would give awards to whoever he said, and whoever approached him, stood by his side and protected his interests would get the award.

Just like the previous president of the literature club.

He smiled and licked his dry lips. Not only did he not bend down to apologize, but he looked at Jiang Ning with a firm look: "Junior sister said that I slandered you. Is there a lie in what I said? Do you dare to say that 'Ningmeng' is not a team? Did I say it wrong on the Internet? Junior sister is in winter camp training during the serialization of "White Snake" to prepare for CMO and IMO. Where does junior sister find the time to submit more than 20,000 words of manuscripts every week? I heard that junior sister has completed all the courses in her freshman year and is now studying courses in her sophomore and junior years. In addition to the courses in her major, she also audited some courses in astrophysics and aerospace engineering. All the courses during the day are full. In addition to "Jinyiwei Commander" which has not been released so far, she has also accepted the script of the CCTV TV series "White Snake". May I ask where does junior sister find the time to maintain continuous and uninterrupted creation of 6,000 words every day after completing so many courses?"

Jiang Ning did not answer him, but smiled and clapped his hands, saying: "Brother, you are so scheming and cunning. Even at this time, you still want to drag me into the trap of 'self-proof'."

The vice president was slightly startled and narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect that this young junior sister who looked like a vase could see through it.

After hearing what Jiang Ning said, the head of the School of Mathematics didn't want his students to continue to get involved with this boy, so he put pressure on the head of the School of Information Relations: "The students in your school are really good at tricks. They can't do anything else, but they are good at framing and slandering their own junior sisters. This really made me, an old man, see through it. I will go and talk to them later."

What are you talking about? Speaking of the School of Information Relations and the School of International Relations, both are applying for master's programs in journalism and communication.

The director of the School of Information Relations was so angry that he almost died. Last year, the School of International Relations had already recruited doctoral students in international cultural communication, which gave them an advantage over the School of Information Relations in their application for master's programs in journalism and communication this year. Now this kind of thing has happened.

The director of the School of Information Relations already had a bad feeling in his heart that this time the master's degree program would probably go to the School of International Relations, and he was very angry.

This matter was a rumor and slander on the Internet, and the circumstances were very serious. If Jiang Ning had not looked out for the school and handed the matter over to the school, she could have reported the case to the vice president for defamation.

The school's handling of this incident was much more serious than the last Cui Yujie incident. The Cui Yujie incident actually did not cause any consequences, and she even had to bear the consequences herself. But this incident was different. It caused a great impact both on the Internet and in reality. The final punishment was a serious warning by the school, and the vice president needed to apologize to Jiang Ning on the Internet and in newspapers to eliminate the impact.

Since the vice president opened the key to the door to the new world, he has used this method of trapping others in public opinion storms and then trapping others in self-proof traps to achieve his goals many times. Unexpectedly, the junior sister did not fall for it this time. He is not as skilled as others, but there is nothing to say. The important thing right now is to minimize the impact of this incident on himself.

But there is still a lot of time this time. Didn’t they say he has no evidence? He will always find evidence against the 'Ningmeng' team.

Netizens did not expect that the vigorous anti-counterfeiting campaign on the Internet would end with the original poster coming out to apologize and publishing the apology in the Beijing Daily for ten consecutive days.

It turns out that the news that 'Ning Meng' is a team came out. The vice president of the literature club was afraid of 'Ning Meng's' influence and literary style, and wanted to use the storm of public opinion to make her lose her competitiveness because she was afraid of 'Ning Meng's' influence and literary style, and wanted to compete with him for the president of the literature club.

In fact, anyone who has read Ning Meng's works knows that Ning Meng's current works, whether it is the otherworldly and majestic "White Snake Cultivation", the treacherous court and the turmoil in "Jinyiwei Commander", or the meticulous layout behind each case in "Song Dynasty", all show a fact, that is, even if "Ning Meng" is a team, the gunman behind this team is also a very talented and gifted gunman. Just ask what kind of interests such a talented and spiritual author must have to be willing to hide behind a little girl and be a little girl's hidden gunman.

Unless it's her parents.

But people also said that her parents were just farmers in the mountains.

Netizens have yet to find out whether she has any remarkable parents.

This time, the vice president of the literature society was not only stripped of his position as president, but also had a serious warning recorded in his file. Let alone his previous plan to be admitted to the master's program in journalism that their department was applying for, even if he goes out to work after graduation, with such a record in his file, no public institution will hire him, let alone enter the system.

Why did he want to plot against Jiang Ning, want to become the president, and then want to be admitted to graduate school through his position as the president of the literature club and the series of awards he had won? Isn't his ultimate goal to work for CCTV?

Who among those majoring in journalism doesn’t want to work at CCTV? It is the ideal palace for all those who are engaged in journalism.

After being reprimanded and publicly apologizing, he did not do anything else after leaving the literature club. He could even be described as low-key. The people who originally surrounded him scattered all of a sudden. When one vice president fell, a new vice president took over.

When a group is corrupt from top to bottom, the person who replaces them is nothing more than a new round of former vice presidents.

After the matter was resolved, Jiang Ning did not continue to dwell on it, but returned to the rental house and continued to write the script of "White Snake". About a week later, Producer Li called Jiang Ning and asked him to go to the animation department of CCTV to discuss the signing of the animation copyright, and incidentally, the copyright of the children's drama was also signed.

This was Jiang Ning's first time at CCTV. Not to mention in the late 1990s, even in the 21st century, this TV station building was considered a tall building. Before he even walked in, he saw five large gold-plated characters hanging on the tall black wall: China Central Television.

Why do so many people want to work at CCTV? In 1996, CCTV was upgraded to a "vice-ministerial" unit, which means that as long as you work at CCTV, you are working in a vice-ministerial unit.

Your starting point at the central bank may very well be the end point that others will find difficult to reach in their lifetime.

The prices of Jiang Ning's two animation copyrights and children's drama copyrights are not as high as the TV drama copyright of "White Snake", but the Central Bank is worthy of being a "vice-ministerial" unit and is not short of money. Knowing that she gave up a lot on the TV drama copyright of "White Snake", they did not put pressure on her in the prices of animation copyright and children's copyright, but followed the market price. It's just that the contract is not based on Jiang Ning's original contract, but on the contract of the Central Bank, which includes but is not limited to, any time regarding the production of these two dramas, she, the original author, needs to cooperate with publicity or script changes, and she must cooperate.

When Jiang Ning signed copyright contracts with other TV stations, she was always the active party. Only when she cooperated with CCTV was she the passive party.

She didn't mind it. Instead, she was very grateful to Producer Li for his support.

Producer Li was also satisfied with her understanding.

As for the rumors on the Internet that "Ning Meng" is a team thing, the CCTV knows Jiang Ning's background very well. As long as the CCTV broadcasts all of Ning Meng's dramas, others will naturally know that there is no problem with Ning Meng's identity.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of November. The members of the second, third and part of the fourth rooms of Jiangjia Village, Linhe Brigade, Shuibu Town, had finished planting tea on the mountain. After all the tea leaves were planted, Mayor Jiang and Jiang Guotai had time to come back and preside over the distribution of mountain land to each household.

The reason why the land was not divided before planting tea was that we were afraid that some families would only plant tea on their own one and a half acres of land after receiving the land, or would only care about the tea trees on their own one and a half acres of land and ignore other land. Many people in the village who were working outside the village did not come back, so this matter must be arranged by the village to ensure that all the tea trees have been planted before December, and then the drawing of lots can be done to discuss the land division.

However, as the former captain's family moved to another place and their household registration was moved, this matter had nothing to do with his family anymore.

Mayor Jiang and Jiang Guotai really didn't delay until so late because they wanted to avoid allocating land to the family of the former brigade secretary. It was because of the floods in July and August, and it was not until October that the water level gradually receded to normal. Even though Jiang Guotai had arranged for his son Jiang Xin to take care of the tea planting, he had to start up his three sand factories as soon as the flood receded.

The two sand factories close to the neighboring city and Shuibu Town are easy to deal with. They are located at the head and the tail. One can be transported to various parts of the country by land via the railway station in the neighboring city, and the other can be transported by water. Large cargo ships on the Yangtze River can go down the river and transport the river sand away. As for the sand factory in the middle, it can be transported by water, but if it is transported by land, Jiang Guotai will have to pay for it himself to open up the road.

This is not a small amount of money.

Most of his fortune is still tied up in the construction of highways. The construction of highways has always been a huge project, no matter what age or location. Jiang Guotai was greedy, and the section he took over was the longest and most important one, which was also his foundation. He had signed a military order in front of the city leaders, so it was impossible for him to cut corners.

He could easily handle other matters, except for the quality of the project, which he had to supervise personally. So he ran between the sand factory and the highway. He even asked his son and future daughter-in-law to help, but there was still not enough manpower, so he had to ask his sister and brother-in-law to come in to help him.

At this time, he also lamented that he had too few sons. If he had two more sons, he would have another son to serve him in two years.

After all matters in Jiangjia Village were dealt with, Village Chief Jiang called him and he rushed over from the sand factory. He came back not to preside over the lottery but to set the rules. Even though he had already explained the rules for dividing the tea land, he had to emphasize it again this time: "Those who have moved their household registration out of the village, except those who moved their household registration to school because of studying, will not be counted in this land distribution."

As soon as he said this, the village chief hesitated and said, "Guotai, then you..."

Jiang Guotai originally had an oval face. He was very busy recently because of the sand factory and highway affairs. He was very tired. His originally round oval face became thinner and his jaw was pointed. He smoked a cigarette to make his tired body more energetic. He said, "It's the same for me. I didn't move my household registration out because of studying. I don't need to be counted in the lottery for this land distribution."

But he added, "But you have to include Fourth Brother's share. Although he didn't move out for school, his situation is the same as the children's schooling. He moved out for work and will have to come back in the future. His share of the land must be included! And Yanyan, Ningning, Jiang Bai and the others must not be left out."

He would come back once because they were afraid that he would not be there. As mentioned before, only unmarried girls whose household registration was still in the village could get the land. Jiang Bai, Jiang Ning, Jiang Yanyan, his son Jiang Xin, and daughter Jiang Miao all did not have their household registration in the village.

Jiang Guotai may not want that one and a half acres of land, but if his son and daughter don't have it, what is the purpose of him running around to make this happen? Are you making wedding clothes for others?

In addition to their registered residence in the village because they are not studying, there are two boys from the fourth room, the son of the electrician in the first room, Jiang Qinqin, and Jiang Qinqin's cousin.

Jiang Qinqin's cousin was admitted to a junior college and now works in the town's tax bureau.

Village Chief Jiang said: "Then Guoan and Guoliang..."

Speaking of these two people, even Jiang Guotai had a headache.

Not to mention Jiang Guoliang, he would come back every year during the holidays and stay at home for more than ten days during the winter vacation. Even though his household registration was moved to his unit, the villagers still recognized Jiang Guoliang as a village boy.

But Jiang Guoan, since he got married, he really seemed to have married into his father-in-law's family. Even during the Chinese New Year, he was rarely seen coming back to worship the ancestors. Even if he came back to worship the ancestors, he didn't even eat the New Year's Eve dinner at home. He hurriedly rushed to his father-in-law's house with his wife to have dinner.

Although his son's surname was Jiang, the number of times he returned to the village could be counted on the fingers of one hand, and the villagers didn't recognize the child at all.

But thinking of Jiang Ning, Jiang Guotai still said: "Ask him if he is willing to pay for the purchase of tea trees and the treatment of the mountain land. He won't work hard to treat the tea land, and he won't pay for it."

Nowadays, there is more than one telephone in the village. Telephones are installed in the old store at the entrance of the village near Jiang Guotai's house, the village chief's house, the former brigade secretary's house, and Jiang Dabo's house.

The village chief immediately called the brothers Jiang Guoan and Jiang Guoliang. Jiang Guoan was at class, so his wife answered the phone. When she heard that they wanted land from their hometown and money, she said, "No, no, we won't go back to farm, and we don't want any land. If something like this happens next time, don't tell us. We will settle down in Wucheng and won't go back."

She herself is from Wucheng, and Jiang Guoan also worked hard to get into a junior college from a rural mountain kid, get a government job, and become a middle school teacher. He has winter and summer vacations, and a stable income regardless of drought or flood. His life is so comfortable. Who would want to go back to the mountains where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't shit to farm?

When Jiang Guoan came back in the evening, his wife told him about this. Jiang Guoan hesitated for a moment and nodded to agree with his wife's decision.

When he was a child, moving to the city was a dream ingrained in the bones of his generation. Not only him, but also the educated youth in the village he met when he was a child, all wanted to return to the city. There were many married people who abandoned their wives and children, and even husbands and daughters in order to return to the city. His mother stayed in their village and did not return to the city, but his mother planted the seed of wanting to move to the city in his heart since he was a child, asking him to study hard, go to college in the future, work as a government employee, and become a city dweller.

He is also very satisfied with his current life and has no intention of going back to the village.

People in the village all said he was an ungrateful person. His parents raised him at his father-in-law's house. When others had sons and wanted to marry into the family, they would at least give his parents some thanks. But he was different. His father, who worked as a carbon driller, had worked hard to raise him, but he didn't even have a New Year's Eve dinner at home, and spent the New Year at his father-in-law's house.

He knew all the gossip in the village, but it didn't matter to him. As long as he didn't go back, he wouldn't hear it. In Wucheng, he still had an easy job and was respected. Everyone in the village envied the state-owned teachers who had a stable job.

Jiang Guoliang has always been very loyal. When he heard that the village was going to divide the land and pay money, he hurriedly said, "Of course, I'll transfer the money to my mother's account later, and you can ask my parents to help me draw the lot. Oh, by the way, my girlfriend is also going to marry me, can I bring her along?"

The village chief hesitated for a moment and said, "You have to get a marriage certificate to be considered a member of our village!"

Jiang Guoliang was overjoyed and said, "We were planning to hold the wedding banquet at the end of the year, so it's okay to get the certificate in advance."

After hanging up the phone, he went to the second-grade office, called out his girlfriend, and proposed that he and her get the marriage certificate in advance: "The village is dividing the land on the tea mountain. If we get the marriage certificate now, you can also get one acre."

His girlfriend was a little hesitant, fearing that one day in the future Jiang Guoliang would take her back to the countryside to live. She didn't want to go back to that remote and poor place where she would have no place to step when going to the toilet, and she was afraid of falling into the pit. Fortunately, she lived at his cousin's house last time.

Jiang Guoliang said, "Don't worry. We can give away the tea leaves even if we divide up one acre of tea land. We can rent a small shop on the street and sell some tea leaves. We can make a lot of money every year. Besides, you don't have to pick the tea leaves. My parents are forest rangers in the mountains. They have nothing to do on weekdays, so they have already picked all the tea leaves."

He held his girlfriend's hand and persuaded her, "The main thing is, do you know that this matter was led by my eldest niece? She brought my fourth brother who is the mayor of the town and my brother who is a big boss in the neighboring city to do this. Think about it, if growing tea is not profitable, why would they bother to do this? With the ability of my two brothers, even if they opened a tea shop in the neighboring city, they would have sold the tea."

His partner looked at his young and handsome face, then smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, that is... I can get the marriage certificate with you, but you have to treat me well in the future. Don't think that after getting the marriage certificate, the person is yours. The things we agreed on before can't be counted!"

Here they always hold the wedding ceremony first and then get the marriage certificate, for fear that after getting the marriage certificate, the man will not fulfill the agreed things such as the three golds and the gift money.

Jiang Guoliang smiled and said, "Let it go. You don't know who I am yet."

He will be 27 years old next Chinese New Year. In the countryside, he is already an old bachelor. If he doesn't get married, people will think there is something wrong with him. They met each other's parents during the Chinese New Year last year and basically decided to get married. It was not a hasty process for them to get the marriage certificate. Jiang Guoliang also carried a lot of things to his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house and told them about it. His father-in-law didn't say anything, but his mother-in-law was of course 100% willing.

Jiang Guoliang is far away from his hometown and works as a primary school teacher in their town. He lives close to their home and often comes to their house for dinner. He is diligent and considerate. Every time he comes back, he rushes to do the big and small things at home. He will also work and live in their town in the future. What is the difference between this and a son-in-law who lives with the family? They don’t even have to give money or the three major items to their live-in son-in-law, so why wouldn’t they be willing to do that?

It just so happened that tomorrow was a double date, so the two of them took their household registration books and went to get the certificate.

After that, there are three siblings: Jiang Song, Jiang Bai and Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning and Jiang Bai are easy to deal with, as they are both still in college and obviously not married. But Jiang Song is not so easy to deal with. Logically, at his age, if he doesn't continue to study, most boys in the village will have a partner.

If he is married or has children, it should be divided into three parts.

But the problem is, no one knows where Jiang Song has gone. It has been almost three years and there has been no news at all. He didn’t even call home, and we don’t even know whether he is dead or alive. How can we give him the land?

Jiang Guotai also thought about this problem, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I'll ask Guoping later. If we find the person, we can share it together. If we still can't find the person, his will be put aside for now."
