Chapter 61: The exaggerated female star
Xu Jie's mind was spinning rapidly. He now represented not only the TV station, but also the vast number of residents living in the old neighborhoods. So he not only had to take on this issue, but also had to find a way to solve it. To put it bluntly, journalists are people who speak for the people and do things for the people.
No one lives in the house? Then find someone!
"Deputy Director Liu, the owner information of unoccupied houses can be found through the community or property management. I think no owner would refuse such a good thing as replacing the heating pipes. What do you think?" Xu Jie said after thinking for a while.
"I don't know whether the owners will refuse, but I know one thing very well. It is not an easy task to gather all the owners of a building together on the same day. Many owners are out of town or even abroad. Today one can come back, but another cannot. Tomorrow one may come back, but another may have something to do. We often encounter this kind of situation. It's useless to notify them in advance. Alas!" Liu Heliang spread his hands, looking helpless.
Xu Jie understood what the other party meant. In fact, after saying so much, what he wanted to express was nothing more than: We can solve our own problems, but we cannot solve your problems. This is the biggest problem facing everyone.
Yes, there are so many old communities in Beijing. If we search door to door, we really don’t know when we will have to wait.
Xu Jie scratched his forehead and suddenly came up with a bold idea. He said to Deputy Director Liu: "In this case, can we choose a community with relatively more residents as a demonstration and replace its pipes first? Then, through our TV station's publicity, let more owners of old communities know about this matter and let them contact the residents in the building themselves. Our heating department will replace the pipes in the communities that meet the conditions. How about that?"
His meaning was very clear: we will solve our problems, but you can't use other excuses to shirk your responsibilities when the time comes.
"Oh?" Liu Heliang's eyes lit up, and he nodded and said, "Reporter Xu, your idea is good. It provides a new idea for our work. I will prepare a feasibility report and bring it to the meeting on Monday for discussion."
Xu Jie nodded and said, "Then let's do our own things."
"Goodbye, reporter Xu." Liu Heliang stood up and walked Xu Jie out of the office.
"Deputy Director Liu, I'm waiting for your good news." Xu Jie held the other's hand tightly.
Well, the interviews have only just begun.
Xu Jie returned to the car. Although the problem was still not solved, he at least thought of a way to solve it. The next thing to do was to create conditions for this solution to be implemented smoothly.
"Xiao Xu, you're really great." Zhang Mingliang, who was sitting in the driver's seat, exclaimed: "To be honest, I was already discouraged by what Deputy Director Liu said just now. I didn't expect you to come up with a solution."
so close!
He could sense that although Xu Jie and Deputy Director Liu seemed to be on good terms with each other, their words were actually filled with murderous intent, just like two table tennis masters, playing back and forth, attacking and defending, but if they were not careful they would lose a round, thus affecting the entire battle situation, the level of danger was comparable to a civil war among the national table tennis team.
"I just came up with this idea on the spur of the moment, and I don't know if it's feasible." Xu Jie was still thinking about this matter.
In fact, his idea was very simple. The program had already been broadcast and attracted much attention from the audience. If it ended so hastily, wouldn't the audience scold him? Who would call the program hotline to ask "Serving the People's Livelihood" to do things in the future?
He admitted that his actions were indeed a bit hasty, but his starting point was good, and when a person is in such a situation, with no one to rely on and no way out, he can only try every possible means to survive.
People are forced to do things, and so are the methods.
For him, what he needs to do now is to quickly finish today's program and understand the audience's views on this matter after it is broadcast in the evening. The power of the masses is strong and there may be unexpected results.
"Do you think that Deputy Director Liu really thinks this is a good idea, or is he just trying to fool us?" Zhang Mingliang asked. He had been fooled so many times that he couldn't help but have such worries.
"No matter whether he was just perfunctory or not, as long as what he said is broadcast on the show, he will have to take it seriously," said Xu Jie.
Why do people think of looking for journalists when they encounter something? It is because after being advertised by journalists, the matter will attract more attention and attention. Journalists themselves cannot solve the problem, but they can find ways to solve it.
…
In the evening, Xu Jie ran out of the TV station at the speed of a 100-meter sprint and got into the BMW Mini parked outside.
"Drive quickly." Xu Jie urged the woman beside him.
"What's wrong?" Su Yun asked in confusion. He looked in the direction of the TV station and there was no wolf behind it.
"My colleague will be out soon." said Xu Jie.
"Why, do you think I'm not presentable enough?" Su Yun looked at herself in the rearview mirror, combed the hair by her ears, and said, "Although I didn't wear much makeup when I came here, it's not embarrassing, right? I'm a naturally beautiful goddess without makeup!"
While fastening his seat belt, Xu Jie said, "It's because you're so good at showing off. I don't want to show off our affection in front of my colleagues and draw hatred. Do you understand?"
Su Yun smiled with satisfaction after hearing this.
"I love hearing you say that."
After saying that, he started the car and drove away from the TV station.
Soon, the car stopped outside a high-end beauty salon.
In Xu Jie's understanding, all the people who come to the beauty salon for skin care are women. This is the first time he has come to such a place since he was a child. While he is curious, he is also a little shy and doesn't know what special services are available here.
"Sister Su, you're here." As soon as Su Yun entered the door, a beautiful woman in a pink uniform came forward and greeted her warmly, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Su Yun nodded and asked softly, "Are you ready?"
"Well, please follow me." The beauty pointed to the elevator and led the way.
At this time, the door of one of the elevators opened, and a man and a woman walked out. The man was in his forties or fifties , with a big head, round face, and a big belly. The woman was in her early thirties, with heavy makeup and a pretty appearance, but the white mink coat she was wearing was very exaggerated.
The woman was stunned for a moment after seeing Su Yun, then she blocked Su Yun's path and said loudly in pretended surprise: "Hey, Su Yun, long time no see!" Her voice was artificial, and her smile was even more hypocritical.
Su Yun stopped, glanced at the other person, and replied calmly: "Well, long time no see."
Xu Jie, who was standing by, smelled something unusual from the conversation between the two women . Although Su Yun seemed like a crazy woman at home, she was kind to the staff and gentle to the fans outside, and she was rarely so cold.
He couldn't help but secretly look at the woman in mink, and after removing the extravagant attire, he was surprised to find that he actually knew this person.
Zhang Sisi was an unknown singer before, but later she let herself go and took the sexy route. Although her songs are still not popular, she has made a name for herself in the film and television industry, often playing sexy roles, such as the mistress in romance films, the vixen in fantasy films, and the stepmother in family films. There was a time when the female colleagues in the program group would scold Zhang Sisi for her bad character as soon as they arrived at the office.
Zhang Sisi did not leave because of Su Yun's indifference. She pulled the man next to her and said enthusiastically, "Su Yun, let me introduce you. This is my husband, Hu Xiaohui, the chairman and general manager of Shenghui Investment Management Company. He usually works on projects worth hundreds of millions."
"Hello, Miss Su, I often hear Sisi mention you. After meeting you today , I find that you are indeed as good as her reputation says." Hu Xiaohui stared at Su Yun with lustful and greedy eyes.
"What young lady? I'm married now, not a young lady anymore." Zhang Sisi said with a smile, then she turned her eyes to Xu Jie who was beside Su Yun and asked arrogantly, "Is this your husband? I wonder where he is working?"
"Reporter, reporter from Beijing TV." Su Yun held Xu Jie's arm with a calm expression. She didn't seem to be angry at the other party's sarcasm.
"Reporter? No wonder you look so ordinary." Zhang Sisi blurted out, her tone full of contempt.
