Didi didi...

Nie Cai woke up from the bed in the rental house when a harsh ringtone came from the cell phone at the bedside.

Nie Cai took a deep breath, shook his still aching head, and picked up his phone.

The caller was none other than Bai Haidong, the producer of Nie Cai's "Focus Tonight" column.

Bai Haidong is just 30 years old this year, but he has been interning at the county TV station since he was 19. He has more than ten years of experience in television media and is a senior newsman.

Bai Haidong has an unattractive appearance. Among the directors of S County TV station, he is the least pretentious one. He takes his work seriously and responsibly on weekdays, is humble and easy-going towards his colleagues, and always smiles with everyone.

But Nie Cai heard that after he had an accident, Director Bai actually dared to slap the table with the director in front of him. Although the result was not satisfactory, Nie Cai was impressed by this kind of argumentative approach.

"Hello, Director Bai." Nie Cai coughed, answered the phone, and said.

"Xiao Nie, it's me. I originally wanted to see you today, but I heard from Gao Xiang that you were discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon. Is there really nothing wrong with your body?" Bai Haidong's voice was low, with a hint of local dialect. With an accent of Se dialect, he asked: "Don't be afraid of spending money on hospitalization. Taili has wasted so many years of our youth. What's the point of wasting some medical expenses? Although Taili is poor, it's not like he can't afford to reimburse you for medical expenses." .”

"I'm fine now. Thank you, Director Bai, for speaking up in Taiwan."

Nie Caigan said with a smile, Bai Haidong likes to joke, but he really cares about himself.

"What are you talking about? Since you work in my column, I will definitely fight for you if anything happens."

Bai Haidong paused and his voice was a little low: "It's just that you should have heard that the station can only transfer you to another job. This result should be the best result... Don't rush to work during this time. have a good rest."

"No need, Director Bai, my health is fine." Nie Cai said gratefully: "I still have a few scripts on hand that I have shot but not written. I don't have many friends in the county alone, and I don't have much time at home. If nothing happens, why not come to work early."

Nie Cai was thinking about this super news system. Originally, he still had a few articles on hand that he had been lazy about writing, but now in order to earn news points, Nie Cai was instantly full of motivation.

"Xiao Nie, you don't have to work so hard. You can come to Taili if you want. Pay more attention and don't tire yourself out." Bai Haidong said silently for a moment, then hung up the phone.

There was a beeping sound from the phone, but Nie Cai felt a warmth in his heart.

Although this call was just a courtesy call, and even suspected of trying to win people's hearts, Nie Cai felt warm in his heart.

Apart from anything else, when I first arrived in S County, I was not familiar with the place, and Director Bai helped me rent a house. Now after something happened, he immediately fought for his subordinates, and even went so far as to slap the table with the director. This kind of leader can be said to He is a rare good leader.

Nie Cai got up and hurriedly washed up, bought a bun downstairs, and ran to the TV station with the bun in his mouth.

S County is a small county, and Nie Cai's dormitory is not far from his work. In just ten minutes, Nie Cai arrived at the news center of S County TV station.

"Hey, isn't this Hero Nie, our hero who saved the beauty? Why don't you stay in the hospital and have a good rest, but come to work in Taiwan? I don't know, I thought our S County TV station was exploiting its employees."

A tall, thin young man was carrying a camera. When he saw Nie Cai actually appearing on the TV station, he couldn't help but said something strange.

I saw this young man wearing a white T-shirt, a pair of cropped camouflage pants, and a pair of Crocs. He was dressed very casually.

This young man's name is Yu Ran. He is the son of Vice President Yu of S County TV station. He came to the TV station through connections and relied on his father as a backstage. He usually idles around and hangs out in the broadcast control department.

Until he saw Zhang Xinyu come to S County TV station and was shocked, and actively asked to be transferred to the news center's "Today's Attention", a fool could see that his purpose was to get close to Zhang Xinyu.

However, Zhang Xinyu has always been very unkind to him and has never given him any good looks at all. Now Nie Cai actually saved a beautiful girl and gained Zhang Xinyu's favor. For him, this is like taking food from a tiger's mouth!

Of course Nie Cai knew where his inexplicable hostility came from, but Nie Cai had no intention of developing anything with Zhang Xinyu, so naturally he would not argue with him.

"Xiao Nie, how are you? Is the injury serious?"

There was a woman following behind Yu Ran, who asked with concern.

This woman is called Huang Xi. She has short, ear-length hair, a petite figure, and is wearing a smart business attire. She looks young, but she is actually twenty years old, and she is the veteran of Nie Cai's column.

"Thank you for your concern, Sister Huang. There is no big problem."

Nie Cai waved his hand and smiled.

"That's okay. We went to visit you yesterday and saw that you were knocked unconscious and your head was bleeding. It was much worse than me before... but it scared us."

Huang Xi looked scared, it seemed like she had experienced something like this before.

Reporters who cover people's livelihood news often encounter conflicts, but most of them are near misses. For example, Nie Cai's case was very serious this time.

"Director Bai, good morning, what tasks do you have today."

With a smile on his face, Nie Cai walked into the large office of the press center and said to the man in the back.

This man is short in stature and wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He is Bai Haidong, the producer and news center director of Nie Cai's "Focus Tonight" column.

Now Bai Haidong was holding a cowhide notebook and sitting beside him. The two seemed to be discussing something.

"Xiao Nie, are you here? I asked you to rest but you still didn't listen. We are having a morning meeting!"

Bai Haidong raised his head, smiled at Nie Cai, and then asked with concern: "You have just been injured. It's best not to run out. During this time, you can just sort out the materials on the stage. You should pay more attention to rest."

He keeps the hotline number of this column on weekdays, and all the "information" that the audience explodes is with him. During the morning meeting every day, he sorts it out and distributes it to various reporters.

"No, Director Bai, my body is fine and I can work normally. Besides, the staff in the station are so tight right now..."

Nie Cai shook his head and rejected Bai Haidong's kindness.

Apart from some bruises, there was nothing serious about his body. Besides, since Nie Cai got this super news system, he wanted to save news points immediately. How could he stay in the station and waste time

Besides, the staff of S County TV station has been streamlined. The entire column team only has the few people Nie Cai met just now. Not counting the producer Bai Haidong and the host Zhang Xinyu, there are only five reporters at full count. They are as tired as dogs every day to ensure the program. of broadcast.

If there is one less of him, we might have to ask other columns to borrow someone.

"Xiao Nie, don't force it. The stage is short of manpower, but it's not this bad. You have to rest when you need it. Just stay in the stage and finish the manuscript at hand."

Bai Haidong shook his head, then turned around and said, "I've finished the arrangement. If you have any news clues on hand, you can tell me. Although we have a hotline to break news, we should also pay attention to observation on weekdays. I found some news clues around me... "

"there is none left… "

Everyone shook their heads. There were ready-made news clues. Who bothered to think about it? This is the lazy nature of people.
