"Mr. Editor-in-Chief, please take a look at these photos."
Miss Pulitzer is of course not on the NYU campus now, but in the editor-in-chief's office in the World building next to Hyde Park in New York.
The current chairman and editor-in-chief of this once-prominent newspaper is Herbert Pulitzer, the eldest son of Joseph Pulitzer and the father of Miss Pulitzer.
Joseph Pulitzer is a person who has had a significant impact on the American newspaper industry. He is recognized as the founder of the "New Journalism" in the 1870s and 1880s, so he is worth introducing.
He was born into a Hungarian middle-class family in 1847. Pulitzer's father was of mixed Jewish and Hungarian descent, and his mother was of mixed German and Austrian descent, so their son had the blood of four families.
Joseph, who was mixed with all the blood in Central Europe, came to the United States because his family fell into poverty after his father's death. In order to fill his stomach, he sneaked into the United States and became a member of the famous Hessian mercenaries in history, and he was also a cavalryman..
After retiring from the army, Pulitzer stayed in the United States and became a journalist. In 1882, he bought the New York World and finally became a real newspaper tycoon.
It is also worth mentioning that the reason why the Statue of Liberty was located in New York was because in 1883, a fundraising campaign to welcome the Statue of Liberty was launched under his personal planning.
This man established the column model of American newspapers and also pioneered the trend of "yellow journalism".
"Okay, Emma. When no one is around, don't call me 'Mr. Editor-in-Chief'?"
The current editor-in-chief looked at the youngest daughter and said lovingly:
Emma Pulitzer shook her head and said, "No, Mr. Editor-in-Chief. Have you forgotten what your grandfather said? We journalists must be professional!"
In fact, Emma is the name of her great aunt, and her grandfather liked the girl very much, so he gave her this name. Emma, who was influenced by her since she was a child, loves this industry even more than her father.
Herbert Pulitzer was choked by his daughter's words, and could only sigh helplessly and said, "Okay, whatever you want."
"Well, Miss Pulitzer," he said, also in a professional manner, putting on his reading glasses, "let me take a look at your photo."
Joseph Pulitzer died in 1911. In his will, he specifically stipulated that the World should never be sold. So his eldest son Herbert Pulitzer became the head of the newspaper. However, by 1920, the World had already shown some signs of decline in its long-term competition with the New York Times.
Of course, under the guidance of his father, Herbert Pulitzer was also a very professional journalist. The elder Pulitzer was nicknamed "Newspaper Tyrant", and it would be impossible for his son not to receive education.
Mr. Pulitzer looked at the photos his daughter had taken and nodded, "Ms. Pulitzer, your photography skills have really improved."
He pointed to one of the photos and said, "The others are just average, but this one is really outstanding. As a father... well, the editor-in-chief, I didn't expect that you really have some talent in this area."
And that photo was a close-up of Yuan Yanshu’s fists!
His fists were bulging with muscles and veins, which made the viewers feel the breathtaking power at a glance. If they were more emotional, they would find that there was also an indescribable intense emotion; and under the fists was a pair of shiny handcuffs, which made people feel very uncomfortable and depressed.
So this photo later became one of the symbols of anti-racism.
Miss Pulitzer blushed. She knew in her heart that apart from this "accidental" photo, her other photos were just average, just as her father said.
For example, the photo of our Master Yuan shining with gold. The New York Times reporter took a photo of him like Moses preaching, but the same photo she took was much inferior, losing the complex of the Messiah that Christians love most.
After praising his daughter, Mr. Herbert Pulitzer asked, "Well, besides showing your progress in the art of photography, what else do you want to say, Emma?"
Miss Pulitzer hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Father... um, Mr. Editor-in-Chief, I also want to tell you about the report on NEO YUAN."
"NEO YUAN's report..."
The editor-in-chief of Le Monde certainly knew this name, because yesterday this Chinese man became a celebrity because of the "NYU High Gambling Night", and today he is about to become a hot topic again because of the suspect in the "Wall Street Bombing".
Maybe... No, it's certain that tonight, what everyone is talking about at the dinner table is not the new Republican president, but this mysterious figure from the East.
It has to be said that our Master Yuan is now full of gimmicks. With his two identities as a generous and noble young Chinese tycoon and a brutal and anti-human anarchist radical, it is only natural that he has become the focus of the entire United States.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Ms. Pulitzer, you are just a photojournalist and an intern. You are not qualified to discuss the content of the report with me now."
Emma Pulitzer argued unconvincedly: "Mr. Editor-in-Chief, but I got the first-hand information from NEO YUAN's closest friends."
Hearing this, Herbert Pulitzer, a professional journalist, could not help but become interested and asked, "Well, then, what news did you get?"
Her daughter took out a small notebook very professionally and told her everything.
The "first-hand information" that the female trainee reporter obtained naturally came from Mr. Louis Baker and Miss Helen Brown.
Yuan Yanshu's other two friends drove and followed the police to the New York Metropolitan Police Department. Miss Pulitzer also took a ride and interviewed Mr. Baker and Miss Brown in the car.
