"In the face of facts, sympathy is worthless."
Jing Zhe said, "Besides, do you think my purpose in having you write this article was to praise him?"
Zhao Wei shook his head. The article claimed to be promoting Wu Xianyong's strong will despite his disability and his serious injuries during the martial arts tests of the three princes of Anguo and Nanqi, but in reality, there were very few words of praise in it. Instead, it was full of negative stories!
"I wrote this article to get back at him, so why do you still pity him? Since you've already written it, you've already offended him. Even if you change this one part, he won't think you're doing a good job, so why should you still pity him?"
"President Jing, I understand!"
Zhao Wei's eyes were resolute as he said, "Then I'll write: During the battle between General Jinghong and General Yinlu, the fiercest warrior of Southern Qi, Minister Wu was watching the excitement and cheering for General Jinghong when he was tragically cut in the groin by a flying weapon, resulting in his immediate castration and loss of his most precious possession! Although he was no longer a man, he was incredibly strong and refused to accept the aphrodisiac offered by President Jing. This shows his inner resilience and is something everyone should learn from!"
"Excellent, excellent!"
Jing Zhe clapped his hands and said, "You're a quick learner! There's one more thing. Remember to include Wu Pin as well. Say that most of the private information about Vice Minister Wu was revealed by Wu Pin, which shows that as a member of the newspaper, even though he's just a doorman, Wu Pin has a strong sense of collective honor!"
The two nodded silently, mourning for Wu Pin in their hearts for a few seconds.
"After you go back, write another article following this line of thought. Show it to me, and if it's suitable, it can be published. By the way, have the current affairs department learn from your writing! I have high hopes for you!"
"Yes, President Jing!"
The two who were praised stood tall and proud, full of confidence.
So far, the current affairs section has been decided: an interview with Wu Xianyong. I estimate that once this newspaper comes out, the "unadorned and fierce" Minister Wu will definitely become a sensation. I wonder if he will thank me and present the newspaper with a banner.
But it is foreseeable that Wu Pin will no longer be working as a gatekeeper at the newspaper office. His father and grandfather will likely give him a particularly vivid martial arts lesson.
Next, Zhao Wei stepped down, and Chen Jiannan took out another manuscript, which the entertainment department had worked overtime to finish yesterday. He made some minor revisions after returning home.
Jing Zhe read it through without offering any opinions. After all, some of these people were once talented individuals, and for them, knowing the outline of the story and writing a fluent and engaging article was not difficult. Jing Zhe immediately approved the publication of the entertainment section.
At this point, four of the five sections of the first issue of the newspaper had been finalized. The remaining section was the lifestyle section, but Jing Zhe still had no idea where to start. After thinking for a while, he decided to go out with the editor-in-chief Chen Jiannan, the rotating head of the interview department Zhao Wei, and the rotating head of the lifestyle department.
If I'm not mistaken, the three people who just invited him must also be here for the newspaper. If Jing Zhe were to meet with them privately, whether he writes about it or not, it would inevitably lead to gossip if someone with ulterior motives saw it.
So why not bring a few people and turn private matters into public ones? He also wanted to go to the Duke of Huguo's mansion to discuss with Yu Sheng how to write the first episode's lifestyle segment.
Hmm, I always feel like he has a lot of ideas…
...
As Jing Zhe came downstairs, he clapped his hands, and everyone immediately gathered around.
"Everyone did a great job. First of all, I want to commend the entertainment department. I heard they didn't leave until dark yesterday to finish writing the article, and I just read it. It's good; it can be handed over to the printing department for printing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entertainment department and the printing department cheered.
The entertainment department was happy after being praised, while the printing department was finally able to officially start work; otherwise, they would have been bored watching the other departments busy.
Jing Zhe gestured for everyone to be quiet.
He then continued, "Of the remaining four sections besides the entertainment section, the main content of the current affairs section has already been written by Editor-in-Chief Chen and Director Zhao of the interviewing department. We need to hand it over to the current affairs department and get it written as soon as possible, and also hand it over to the printing department for printing."
"Both ministers are aware of the outlines for the literature and military sections. Let's try to finish writing them in one day. Are you confident?"
"have!"
The members of both companies exclaimed excitedly.
"Alright, then the content for the lifestyle section is still undecided. The content for the other four sections is also staggered. Whoever finishes writing first should hurry up and print it. Once the lifestyle section is finished and printed separately, our first issue of the newspaper will be published! At that time, I will take everyone to Wuxian Garden for a celebratory drink!"
"Aww!"
The crowd shouted excitedly.
They are now full of energy. Even those who were somewhat skeptical of Jing Zhe yesterday are completely convinced after seeing Feng Lianru, Yu Zecheng, and Li Haoyun invite him at the same time today.
Their newspaper seems to be quite sought after!
So everyone put in their best effort and was ready to perform well!
After giving a brief pep talk to everyone, Jing Zhe led Chen Jiannan and the other two to prepare to leave.
Hanhan was standing in the courtyard, facing Wu Pin. He still had that same silly look on his face, while Wu Pin looked fierce and a little scared. The two of them looked quite comical.
"Silly boy, what are you doing here?"
Hanhan glanced at Jing Zhe and said seriously, "Hit him."
"..."
The people behind him stared in disbelief, thinking to themselves, "Like master, like servant!"
He just throws a punch; that's so typical of Jing Zhe.
"Why are you hitting people like that? We're all civilized people; we should reason with each other. Why are you hitting people for no reason?"
Jing Zhe looked serious, like a simpleton.
"Stop pretending, it was you who made him hit you! Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to do that! Don't get cocky just because those people came to invite you today! They're only after the newspapers, not you! Sooner or later, you'll regret this!"
Wu Pin had already written down all of Jing Zhe's atrocities against him in his notebook, and he had already decided that he would never leave the newspaper office and would collect dirt on him right at the door!
He also listened to the newspaper's operating model yesterday.
Isn't it just a place for advertising?
Feng Lianru, Yu Zecheng, and Li Haoyun came here today, definitely for these reasons!
He dared not offend the Crown Prince, but Yu Sheng behind Yu Zecheng and Hao Junguang behind Li Haoyun were in different camps from Bai Qingyuan and the Prince of Xiang behind the Wu family!
Hmph, if they really have any private deals involving power and money, he'll write them down and present them to the Prince of Xiang as a pledge of loyalty!
Doesn't my family look down on me too?
They won't let me come to the newspaper office!
Then I'll do something earth-shattering myself to show you!
