An Eye for News

Chapter 15: Consolidated manuscript

Views:

Xie Bin's car was a Land Cruze. It was probably a high-end engine with excellent performance. The driver, who was a veteran, was also very skilled. He took Nie back to the S County TV station as quickly as possible.

Even so, it was already half past three, and the time left for Nie Cai became increasingly tight.

"Thank you, master!"

Nie Cai quickly got out of the car and thanked him quickly.

"Young man, wait!"

The driver suddenly stopped Nie Cai, looked Nie Cai over, and then said: "I have been a driver for our leader for so long, and this is the first time I have seen him so solemnly ask me to send someone off. Neither of those two reporters received this kind of treatment. I know you are in a hurry, so I stopped you just to say that our leader is from an ethnic minority, and his surname is pronounced 'sai'. It was often mispronounced in several places he stayed in before. Although the leader will no longer be angry about this kind of thing, if you want to mention it, you should pronounce it correctly."

"Can it be pronounced as sai? It's a rare surname. Thank you driver for reminding me!" Nie Cai thanked him quickly.

I didn't expect that Xie Bin's last name was so unpopular. Most people knew that Xie Xiaodong's last name was pronounced "xie", but Nie Cai, who pronounced it "sai", had never even heard of it.

It is conceivable that Xie Bin's name may have been misunderstood by many people who took it for granted, so that he was almost used to it.

"Director Bai, I'm back..."

Nie Caicai stepped into the news center and found that there seemed to be something wrong with the atmosphere in the office.

Usually the news center is a mess. People who have finished their work are eating sunflower seeds and chatting, and those who have not finished their work are rushing around. The news center is filled with all kinds of news synchronization sounds.

But today's news center was surprisingly quiet. Nie Cai looked around and saw that almost most of the people in the news center were gathered in the office area of "Attention Tonight".

To be precise, these people should have gathered around Yu Ran's desk. Behind him, there was a dark circle of people, including the station director, the person in charge of the news center, and leaders who were rare to see in the news center. When they get together, even Bai Haidong, the director of the news center and the producer of the "Focus Tonight" column, can only be placed on the sidelines.

"Yes, it's this moment. You took it so well, Yu Ran. You captured such an important moment. The plainclothes SWAT officers tackled the gangsters. This scene must be shown with slow-motion special effects!"

Wei Jianguo on the stage pointed at the computer screen and said with appreciation.

"This scene is so thrilling. How did you take it?"

Even Zhang Xinyu, who usually ignored Yu Ran, came closer at this time and looked at this rare footage.

"I happened to be doing an interview nearby. The top floor of the apartment opposite the building is the home of one of my buddies. I climbed up to the water tower on the roof of his house to take the photo. I just happened to be able to capture the scene in the building opposite."

Yu Ran was elated, it was just a coincidence, otherwise he would not have been able to capture such a precious scene.

"Nie Cai, where have you been? You almost missed the important news! Fortunately, I captured the scene. The person who jumped from the building hijacked the female reporter and was subdued by the plainclothes special police. This is big news, and it may be on CCTV!"

While he was talking, Yu Ran heard the news of Nie Cai's return and gloated, with a smug look on his face.

How could he let go of something that could hit Nie Cai and show his face in front of Zhang Xinyu? He had been waiting for Nie Cai to come back and was ready to ridicule him.

"Yu Ran, don't be distracted. There are less than two hours before the show is broadcast! You hurry up and get this news. After you finish it, spread it to the city immediately and ask them to help spread it to the provincial and central stations!"

The station director Wei Jianguo frowned, then turned around and said seriously: "Nie Cai, you were injured just now. It's not that we in the station are inconsiderate of you, but now that you have returned to your position as a reporter, then You should work seriously and don't delay the broadcast of the entire program just because you are alone!"

"Xiao Nie, I've also heard that the people from the Public Security Bureau won't let you enter the cordon, so you should have taken some outdoor footage at the scene. Quickly collect it and draft it with Yu Ran."

Bai Haidong sighed and said.

Everyone can see that the news about jumping from a building has evolved into this, and it is certain that this news will be on CCTV.

Although Nie Cai arrived first, he was unable to enter the scene. It was like entering Baoshan and returning empty-handed. Yu Ran was lucky. He happened to be interviewing in the building opposite at that time, and shot a lot of precious shots in this article. Among all the news, he has the greatest credit.

In the county station of S County, a piece of CCTV news means seniority. There is an unwritten rule in the station. If you have a manuscript published on the CCTV every year, you have the qualification to judge the advanced.

Even if you are lucky enough to be featured on Xinwen Network, you will not only get royalties from CCTV, but there will also be additional rewards from CCTV.

Nie Cai had just become a regular employee, and to be honest, he really needed this opportunity. Although Bai Haidong's words just now were meant to reprimand Nie Cai, in fact, he was still secretly biased towards Nie Cai.

Asking Nie Cai to compile the manuscript means adding Nie Cai's name to the news. This is already an extra step for him to take care of Nie Cai.

"Combined the manuscript? Director, is there any mistake? I also shot the outdoor scenes, and I was using a new camera at the time. The shots were very effective and I didn't need Nie Cai's lenses!"

Yu Ran obviously understood what was going on, and he frowned and shouted loudly.

He comes from a good family and is the son of the deputy director of the station. He doesn't attach much importance to things like royalties and rewards.

In fact, many people knew that he did not want to stay at S County TV station for a long time. In the final analysis, Yu Ran was only at S County TV station to pursue Zhang Xinyu.

In normal times, although he would not be happy to add Nie Cai's name to this heavyweight news, he would not object either. This is how it is among reporters. This time you help others, it will be someone else's turn to help you next time. , the journalism industry is inherently teamwork.

However, Nie Cai heroically saved Zhang Xinyu a few days ago and gained Zhang Xinyu's favor, which made him jealous. How could such a good thing be left to Nie Cai

Nie Cai just thought for a moment and immediately understood what was going on. His mobile phone was out of battery and Bai Haidong couldn't contact him. He thought he didn't capture the news, so he had to let Yu Ran do the main draft. .

"Director Wei, Director Bai."

He took a deep breath, put the camera on the table, and then said in a deep voice: "I think it's better to combine the manuscript. Yu Ran's footage is very valuable, but I think his footage is too monotonous. The news compiled in this way The picture doesn’t look good.”

"Brother Nie!"

When Gao Xiang heard this, he was startled and poked Nie Cai to tell him to shut up.

"Monotonous? What's wrong with the monotonous lens? Do you think this is a movie? Do you need a crane? And a lighting engineer and sound recordist? Why do you, a non-professional, point your fingers at me?"

But Yu Ran had already heard this and was so angry that he jumped and said angrily: "I worked so hard to run to the water tower on the roof of the building opposite, set up a tripod to take such a precious picture, and you are still picking here and there. ? Then tell me, you arrived so long before me, and what did you take pictures of!"
