Song Jin followed the military comrade into the gate, and under his guidance, he went up to the third floor and stopped in front of a large office.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Section Chief, Comrade Song Jin has arrived."
"Okay, go down."
"yes!"
Song Jin stood outside and listened to the conversation between the two. Then the soldier comrade went out and went downstairs without looking at them.
The person inside didn't say anything. The door was open, but the room inside seemed very large. From her position, she couldn't see what was going on inside unless she stuck her head in.
The only things visible to the naked eye are the sofa and coffee table.
She thought for a while outside whether to follow the man and shout "report" or knock on the door and wait for a response before going in.
Without giving it much thought, she chose to knock on the door. Along with the knock was her loud voice: "Hello, I'm Song Jin."
The person inside seemed to chuckle, and then the same deep baritone voice from before rang out: "Please come in, Comrade Song Jin."
Song Jin tidied up her clothes. In order to look good today, she deliberately did not wear a thick cotton-padded jacket. She wore warm autumn clothes and trousers inside, a beige turtleneck sweater outside, and a long cashmere coat of the same color on the outside.
She wore black straight-leg pants and small high-heeled leather shoes. She exuded a gentle, elegant and luxurious style, which was eye-catching.
When I walked into the office, I saw that it was indeed very large. There was a large desk inside, and sitting at the desk was a man in his fifties wearing a Zhongshan suit.
When he saw Song Jin coming in, he looked at him politely with admiration and said with a smile: "Comrade Song Jin, please take a seat."
As he spoke, he politely pointed in the direction of the sofa, then stood up and sat on the single sofa to Song Jin's right.
"Let me introduce myself first. My last name is Zhu. I'll be your future supervisor and the head of our radio station's communications department. I wonder if Director Ji has ever spoken to you about our department?"
Song Jin saw the other party's tentative intention, but she did not feel disgusted and told the truth.
"Aunt Ji didn't tell me the details. She just said there was an opportunity and that I could take the exam. Whether I could be admitted depended on my personal ability."
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on the other person's face deepened significantly.
"Our Radio Operator Liaison Department was the first department established, and its main responsibility is the training and management of radio operators.
The radio operator is the link between the radio station and the people. With radio operators and listening groups, the radio station has a solid mass base.
The most important channel for selecting radio operators is to win over active members of the audience.
Radio operators are a group of new cultural cadres. After training, they carry the radios allocated by the organization to various places to carry out their work.
The main tasks are: to copy the news released by the radio station and send it to party and government leaders and relevant departments for circulation; to publish the copied news and government orders in mimeographed tabloids, etc., and distribute them to the countryside to expand publicity; to collect listeners' feedback to provide a basis for the radio station to improve its work; to establish listening points and organize the masses to listen to the radio on time.
If there is a major propaganda task or important program, the radio operator must take the radio to the countryside and organize people to listen to it."
Song Jin only realized after hearing this that this was not an announcer, but a radio operator. There was a huge difference between the two.
One is that you can sit in the office and just move your mouth, and your voice can be heard all over the country.
One is to carry a radio around and organize people below to listen to important news, policy communications, etc.
She showed hesitation on her face.
Section Chief Zhu noticed her hesitation, but he did not show any unhappiness. Instead, he asked her.
"You must be wondering why you came to the Radio Liaison Department when you clearly wanted to go to the broadcasting department. Director Ji and I are old friends. It's rare for her to come to me for something, so I won't hide it from you. If you want to enter the broadcasting studio now, it's difficult!"
He glanced at Song Jin, stood up, poured two glasses of water, handed one to her, took a sip of water and continued:
"You may not know this, but our radio studio hasn't hired any new people in ten years. The current announcers and hosts are all our top hosts, and we haven't completely given up on recruiting new talent.
There were one or two instances where family members of ministerial-level or higher-level employees recommended them internally, but once they arrived, it was impossible for them to officially become broadcasters. They all started as apprentices, but with our senior and experienced seniors standing in the way, they never got their chance.
I've only been able to do side jobs, like editing manuscripts, and the closest thing to the studio is probably cleaning the equipment. The next few people saw no hope and automatically transferred to other positions."
Having said that, he took another sip of water, giving Song Jin time to think.
Song Jin also understood. It was said that the person was kind enough to tell her that the existing hosts were all ace hosts. They had been working for more than ten years or even decades and had no intention of changing jobs or resigning, so there were no vacancies.
Even if they recruited new people, they would only be runners and cleaners, and they would never have a chance to work.
Just running errands and cleaning, and only family members of leaders at the ministerial level or above can get in through recommendations.
Tell Song Jin clearly that if you insist on joining the broadcasting department, then you can just do odd jobs, and it’s not certain whether they will want you.
She has no choice at all!
Section Chief Zhu may have seen her dilemma, so he smiled and spoke again.
"You don't have to worry about it. I'm not telling you this to throw cold water on you. I heard from Director Ji that you are a very thoughtful and capable young person. I value talent. I really want to see what kind of strength this girl, who she praised as unique in the world, has. That's why I want to give you a chance.
I'm currently short of a secretary. Come learn from me first. If you prove yourself capable, I'll get you an introduction from the station manager. Even if you have a bold new idea and want to host a new show yourself, I can still help you. But the prerequisite is that you have to show me your ability. Do you understand?"
Song Jin had no choice, she was told it clearly.
There are two paths. One is to continue to choose to go to the broadcasting department. It is not certain whether you can get in. If you get in, you will have to wait for opportunities by accumulating experience at the lowest level.
One option is to stay in the Radio Liaison Department and become the secretary of the section chief, also waiting for an opportunity, but as long as he sees her ability, he can pave the way for her.
Anyone with a brain would know to choose the second path, and she was shamefully tempted.
Of course, the main reason was that she thought the Section Chief Zhu in front of her was a gentleman, and there was no malice or bad intention in his eyes.
Moreover, since the Ji family could come to him, he was willing to give them face and talk to them heart to heart. The job position he arranged for them was a position that ordinary people could not do at all.
After thinking for a while, Song Jin nodded in agreement.
