Chapter 84: Shannan Journey (8) Gift Value Added
After the event, reporters from the city TV station came over.
"Reporter Jiang, can we interview you for a few minutes? We didn't do that for the last news report, and our leader scolded us."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "I've interviewed so many people, but this is the first time I've been interviewed by someone. Okay, go ahead and ask."
The reporter from the county integrated media center was too embarrassed to interview Jiang Ningyue alone, so he quickly came over.
A reporter from the Municipal Media Integration Center asked: "I just want to ask you why you chose live streaming to promote local specialties."
Jiang Ningyue nodded and spoke eloquently, "Livestreaming is a new form of online sales. Compared to traditional online sales, it allows customers to see the products firsthand. Or, like me, take customers to the factory to see the production process firsthand. This is a good thing for our city's products. After all, compared to world-renowned and domestic brands, our lack of fame is a disadvantage."
"Many people have seen my success in livestreaming sales, and I think everyone can learn from it. Accumulating followers through short videos and then selling goods through livestreaming may be a new way to contribute to rural revitalization. If you have good products, you can try to promote and sell them on Douyin. But everyone should remember that product quality and honest business practices always come first."
Seeing Jiang Ningyue speaking so eloquently, a reporter from the Municipal Media Center showed admiration on his face. "You don't need to prepare anything at all."
"It's just plain language." Jiang Ningyue said with a smile, "You can edit it later."
"No need for editing at all," the reporter praised with a smile. "I heard you're from Taozhou, too. Could you please say a few words to the folks there?"
Jiang Ningyue nodded. "I was born and raised in Chenmu County, Taozhou. I know very well how difficult Taozhou's road to development is. But as I said before, the internet age is a great opportunity. We can increase our income by doing part-time jobs through live streaming, shooting short videos, etc. Finally, I believe that the day when Taozhou City is completely out of poverty will soon come!"
After the interview, Jiang Ningyue turned around and saw Secretary Zhang and other people from the county party committee and county government still waiting for her not far away.
Seeing that Jiang Ningyue had finished her work, Secretary Zhang smiled and said, "Reporter Jiang, our county party committee and county government must treat you to a meal."
Jiang Ningyue knew it was difficult to refuse, so she nodded and said, "Then I will respectfully obey your command."
At the dinner table, Secretary Zhang raised his glass and said, "The first glass of wine should be toasted to Reporter Jiang. Without her, we would never have been able to sell out all the stockpiled goods in such a short time. Thank you, Reporter Jiang."
"You're welcome, everyone."
Jiang Ningyue couldn't refuse, so she also picked up the wine glass.
Women who drink can be roughly divided into two types: one who gets drunk after just one glass, and the other who can drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk.
Jiang Ningyue was the latter. Alcoholism was rampant in the area, and Jiang Ningyue's family was so poor, yet her father still drank three times a day. This showed the prevailing atmosphere.
"Reporter Jiang is huge!"
Several people applauded quickly.
Secretary Zhang continued, "Reporter Jiang, you're also from our county, so you're one of us. I won't say much more about thanking you. So, please leave me your contact information. If you need anything in the future, just call me and I'll definitely help you."
Although the words were a bit cheesy, as the county's top official, they still carried a lot of weight. As the official in Jiang Ningyue's hometown, Jiang Ningyue was very considerate and added him on WeChat and left her phone number. She also added the contact information for the city committee office, the municipal government office, and other leaders.
After drinking for over an hour, Jiang Ningyue excused herself as being too drunk and left the party. The others didn't try to persuade her to stay; with Jiang Ningyue around, they couldn't even continue with the next activity.
Now that Jiang Ningyue is gone, things are actually more convenient for them.
Under the restaurant, Jiang Ni hid in a sheltered place, shivering. Jiang Ningyue came out and saw Jiang Ni, and immediately walked up to her, "Sister, why are you here?"
"I was worried you might have drunk too much." Jiang Ni smiled. "It's okay as long as you're not drunk. Where are those people?"
"They continued drinking." Jiang Ningyue said casually.
At this time, a young man came out and said, "Reporter Jiang, the secretary asked me to see you off."
"It's okay, my sister is here to pick me up, you can go back."
“Hey.”
The young man felt a little regretful, but still went back obediently.
After getting on Jiang Ni's motorcycle, the two returned to the hotel. Jiang Ni boiled a pot of hot water for Jiang Ningyue. Seeing Jiang Ningyue take out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator, she couldn't help but frown and said, "Drink less."
Jiang Ningyue nodded and said, "Okay."
Then he unscrewed the Coke and took a big sip. "Shh...refreshing! This stuff is still the best. I don't know what's so good about white wine. It makes me feel sick."
"Then you won't go next time."
"That won't do. After all, he's the county party secretary. If you don't live here, it doesn't matter if I don't give you this honor."
Jiang Ningyue sat on the bed and looked at Jiang Ni doubtfully, "Aren't you going home tonight?"
"No, I've told your brother-in-law that I'll take care of you tonight."
"I'm not drunk."
Jiang Ningyue said this, but she didn't chase Jiang Ni away.
Jiang Ni smiled and sat next to Jiang Ningyue. "Your brother-in-law and I got promoted. Your brother-in-law is now a team leader, and I was transferred to the factory's logistics department and started receiving labor insurance. You have to know that this is a good job that only relatives of county leaders can get!"
"Yeah." Jiang Ningyue said indifferently, "I sold so much goods to your factory, it's not too much to give you two the position of deputy factory director."
"Neither of us even finished junior high school, how could we possibly become deputy factory managers? It feels like a dream now."
Jiang Ni is a contented person and is very satisfied with her current job.
"As long as you are happy." Jiang Ningyue didn't say much.
"Will you still be in the county tomorrow?"
"No?" Jiang Ningyue thought for a moment, "I guess I'll go back to the city in the afternoon. I think I'll be back around the 25th."
"Why are you still going to the city?"
"Get to work." Jiang Ningyue said with a wry smile, "I've only been selling goods to you. I haven't even filmed my news yet."
You know, Editor-in-Chief Zhou had previously assigned Jiang Ningyue the task of focusing on the cadres from Haizhou who were assisting Shannan, filming their deeds and news. Now, not a single one has been filmed.
The two sisters chatted for a while, and Jiang Ni said with emotion: "It's really thanks to you, otherwise your brother-in-law, who can't even make a fart, would never have become a team leader in his life."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "That's not true. If it weren't for you, Jiang Ningyue wouldn't have been able to go to college."
"You're a good student," Jiang Ni said with emotion. "In fact, people from the village came to persuade my parents at that time, saying that if they had any difficulties, the village could help."
"Yeah." Jiang Ningyue nodded without saying anything more, "I'm going to take a shower."
Jiang Ningyue came back from taking a bath and saw Jiang Ni sitting in the living room with a huge wooden barrel in front of her. Jiang Ningyue looked at Jiang Ni in confusion, and Jiang Ni smiled and said, "Xiaoyue, let me wash your feet."
"Ah?" Jiang Ningyue was puzzled.
"I used to wash your feet when you were little, but I haven't done that since you grew up. Let me wash your feet."
Jiang Ni didn't know how to thank her sister. This was the only way she could think of.
If Jiang Ningyue knew what Jiang Ni was thinking, she would definitely be in tears and laughter. In fact, Jiang Ningyue felt quite comfortable hugging her to sleep at night.
