Chapter 242: Apology
Several major newspapers issued a joint apology statement and also received court summons.
The new editor-in-chief: …
Curse He Shuzhen to death!
Many people are looking for He Shuzhen, they are going crazy.
But what if we find her?
The new editors-in-chief of several major newspapers used their connections to find Tang Tian's current residence, and brought the former editor-in-chief and gifts to apologize.
Tang Tian and Da Hu were just going out. Da Hu pushed the cart that Tang Zhen had found and stopped to look at the group of people carrying large and small bags.
His eyes were blazing with fire.
"What are you doing here?"
The old editors-in-chief were very angry and couldn't cover up their shame.
But there is no way, they have to comply with the orders from above!
I can’t go to court. It’s too embarrassing to go to court!
"We are here to apologize to Comrade Tang Tian!" the former editor-in-chief of Beijing News said with a red face, "We were wrong. We did not conduct an in-depth investigation and believed the words of Comrade He Shuzhen and Chief Chen of your unit's personnel department..."
Tang Tian interrupted him: "This is not a reason."
"In the final analysis, it's your arrogance and prejudice against me."
"One is a girl of 17 or 18, and the other is a young man in his 20s. You chose to believe the young man and thought that such an article should not be written by a little girl like me.
It must have been written by that young man.
You are biased, which is why you conduct a perfunctory investigation. ”
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have convicted me without even checking the source of the material."
He has no sincerity at all and just starts to pass the buck. He must have been an official for too long.
Several former editors-in-chief blushed. It was obvious that Tang Tian had hit upon their thoughts and torn off their fig leaf.
The new editor-in-chief is so angry. These idiots, ask them to apologize, and this is their attitude!
Just as I was about to say something to make amends, I heard Tang Tian say, "I've already seen the apology letter in the newspaper, so there's no need for you to come. Please go back!"
"Don't come here again!"
It was all just hypocritical repetitive talk, and she didn't want to hear it.
She also didn't want them to bother her all the time in order to complete their tasks.
Although the article written by my fifth uncle's friend was a bit exaggerated, she had no idea of committing suicide.
But what about someone else?
If it were another girl who didn't have a strong backer like her fifth uncle, what would she do?
Can she handle the pressure?
What will be the outcome if you can’t bear it?
Why, on what basis did they make such a conclusion based on just a stamped envelope and one person's comment about her?
Even if there is no source of material, what about the draft?
Who is so talented that he can finish an article like this in one go without making any changes?
It can be seen that it is not difficult to investigate, it just depends on whether the other party has the intention.
She would not forgive these editors-in-chief, although her forgiveness would be of no use.
The new editor-in-chief of Beijing News thought for a moment, then said to the old editor-in-chief, "You two can go back."
A few people didn't want to stay here anymore and ran away immediately. Anyway, their superiors asked them to apologize, and they had already apologized.
The new editor-in-chief of Beijing News smiled and said to Tang Tian: "Comrade Tang Tian, I am Yao Aiguo, the new editor-in-chief of Beijing News. I have just taken office. I deeply regret the plagiarism incident. On behalf of the newspaper, I apologize to you!
This is indeed our newspaper's fault and we cannot shirk our responsibility!
I have improved the newspaper's plagiarism detection system and added new plagiarism detection procedures, and will resolutely prevent such incidents from happening again in the future! ”
Several other new editors-in-chief also apologized and expressed their attitudes.
Tang Tian's expression finally relaxed.
"Could you please invite us in and sit for a while?" Yao Aiguo smiled even more kindly.
Tang Tian turned around and opened the door: "Everyone, please come in!"
Dahu pushed the cart in, and when he saw Tang Tian going to make tea, he quickly took over the job.
Several editors-in-chief looked at the old books piled up in the courtyard corridor and asked, "Comrade Xiao Tang, why do you have so many old books here?"
Tang Tian invited them to sit in the main hall and said calmly, "I came to Beijing on a business trip to visit major publishing houses to help the library see if there are any books that need to be processed and buy them back to enrich the library's collection.
But because I was criticized by you, you won’t sell me any books, let alone discounted books! Even books at normal prices won’t be sold to me! ”
Speaking of this, Da Hu gets angry.
He put the tea on the tea table in the main room and said angrily, "Why don't they sell it to us? As soon as we mentioned the name, they chased us out!"
"We had no choice but to go to the scrapyard to look for books."
When the editors-in-chief heard this, the smiles on their faces turned awkward.
Yao Aiguo said hurriedly, "It is true that several of our newspapers have caused trouble for Comrade Xiao Tang. How about this? Our Beijing News will donate 50,000 books and 100 volumes of newspaper compilations from the past two years to the library where Comrade Xiao Tang works."
The so-called newspaper compilation is all the newspapers published within two years stapled together, one per year.
This is retained by this unit and is not for sale.
The editors-in-chief of several other newspapers quickly followed suit: "Then our newspaper will donate 30,000 copies, and the newspaper compilation will be the same as the Beijing newspaper."
As they were talking, a group of people came into the main room. Tang Tian served them tea and said, "Then I would like to thank the editors-in-chief on behalf of the people of Qingjiang County!"
Seeing the smile on her face, several editors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I started asking her if she had any problems in life and if she needed help.
Then the editor-in-chief of Beijing News took out an envelope and handed it to Tang Tian: "Comrade Tang Tian, this is our newspaper's compensation for your losses.
You have been under unimaginable pressure during this period, and your body and mind have suffered tremendous torture... It's just a small token of my appreciation, please don't refuse! ”
The other editors-in-chief also took out envelopes, and their thicknesses were similar, so it was obvious that they had discussed it beforehand.
Tang Tian confiscated it and only asked: "If I don't withdraw the lawsuit, will you take back these apologies?"
Several people were embarrassed when asked again!
This little girl asked questions directly, without any detours at all!
Yao Aiguo smiled and said, "Of course not. Whether you withdraw the lawsuit or not, this is what we should compensate you for, and it is also our newspaper's apology to you."
Tang Tian nodded slightly, but she still didn't take it.
"Then I want to see your new process and new regulations for checking plagiarism. If plagiarism is not checked according to the process, what kind of punishment measures will your newspaper have?"
Everyone looked at each other. This little girl is not easy to fool!
The apology she wanted was not a superficial "I'm sorry" or generous financial compensation.
The apology she wants is that the newspaper should learn from its mistakes and make up its mind to reform this malpractice!
Not easy to fool, and highly conscious!
However, several editors-in-chief were well prepared. They opened their briefcases, took out documents with several stamps on them and handed them to Tang Tian.
After reading it, Tang Tian nodded with satisfaction.
"I accept your apology and will go to the court to withdraw the lawsuit in a moment."
The editors-in-chief finally felt relieved. They were ready to make a few more trips. They didn't expect Comrade Tang Tian to be so easy to talk to.
She is a kind and good girl.
They all showed relieved smiles, and then told Tang Tian to tell them any difficulties she had at work or in life.
Tang Tian smiled.
"I really have something I would like to ask you for help with."
