Quanguan City, Zhenjiang Province is the area with the best economy outside Zhenjiang Province.
Lu Ming was sitting on the bus. He was wearing sunglasses and dressed casually. He looked like a fashionable young man.
There are not many tall buildings on both sides, and the development status is generally similar to that of the small cities in Lu Ming's previous life in the 1980s.
The population of Quanguan City is not large, with a population of more than 300,000.
Next to Lu Ming sat an old man in his fifties. His surname was Jin and his pen name was Qiuzhen. He was the most senior reporter of the Zhenjiang Daily Telegraph.
The Zhenjiang Daily Telegraph is the best-selling news newspaper in Zhenjiang Province, and reporter Jin is a veteran in the Zhenjiang journalist industry.
At this time, he was recording something in his notebook and looking at Lu Ming from time to time.
Sitting next to him was a girl who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was wearing a baseball cap, a plaid suit and overalls, and was dressed in a very neutral style. She had a camera hanging around her neck. She was reporter Jin's assistant, named Zhou Wanzhen, a student who had just graduated with a major in journalism and an intern camera reporter for the Zhenjiang Daily Telegraph.
"General Lu, what is your impression of this city?" Jin Qiuzhen asked in a low voice.
Zhou Wanzhen hurriedly took out a pen to take notes. Although this was not her job, if she did not follow the teacher's notes, she would be scolded by the teacher later.
How many journalists dream of getting this opportunity.
Marshal Lu was going to travel to every county in Zhenjiang Province, have extensive contact with the people, conduct investigations and research, and think about the development path of Zhenjiang Province. Moreover, his trip was to be secret, which, as the saying went, was an incognito visit.
I went to Marshal Lu’s office and contacted my teacher. After signing a confidentiality agreement, the teacher gave me the opportunity to be his assistant. I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep all night.
Although, his own circle, or the circle he wanted to integrate into, the Zhenjiang news industry, did not quite recognize Marshal Lu.
They believe that he is a dictator and won the election by using financial and human resources that other candidates did not have.
But for me, it was very exciting. I was born in a poor family and studied journalism in technical secondary school. So I had heard about a man named Lu Qingtian in Heishan, one of the five provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, and I had used him as a research topic. I didn't expect that I would be able to follow this legendary figure and travel all over Zhenjiang.
Moreover, Zhenjiang’s first democratically elected government has been born. How can we not be excited and look forward to it
But when I saw her in person, I was a little disappointed. Even though she was dressed up, she was too young, like a frivolous city youth.
The teacher also privately complained that Marshal Lu was too good at showmanship. If you really wanted to do that, why did you bring so many reporters with you
Moreover, he is not qualified to be a ruler if he neglects many important tasks of the provincial government and comes out to show off.
But now, looking at the teacher's respectful attitude and remembering the disdainful look on his face when he talked about Marshal Lu, I couldn't help but find it funny.
However, Marshal Lu was obviously not a careless person. It was later discovered that he would hold a two-hour telephone conference with cabinet members every night.
In other words, the new cabinet team is working overtime every day.
In response to this, the teacher sneered again, saying that there were too many useless things to do and too many documents to be documented.
But the articles written by the teacher praised Marshal Lu and the new cabinet team to the skies. However, these articles would not be published until Marshal Lu completed his research work.
"Lu Shuai, what is your impression of this city?" Lu Shuai seemed to be in a trance, and the teacher repeated the question.
Coach Lu turned his head and smiled: "It's okay. I've heard of Quanguan before. It has a great geographical location and is adjacent to Ayton State in the Eastern Conference. It should be able to do even greater things."
Zhou Wanzhen was taking notes quickly when she caught a glimpse of the people sitting in the row in front of her, who also turned their heads.
It is the team of Bai Susu, the most famous reporter and announcer of Kunlun Radio.
The beautiful girl wearing a snow-white dress and smiling sweetly at Lu Shuai is Bai Suzhen.
This time, Lu Shuai mainly led three teams of reporters. The teacher and himself were considered a team, and Bai Suzhen was a team.
In addition, there is a team from a TV station, but they do not follow closely all the time. People and equipment are in a special car, and they will arrive at important points to conduct filming.
"General Lu, how do you think Quanguan should develop?" Bai Suzhen's voice was coquettish and charming.
Zhou Wanzhen shook her head. Bai Suzhen's voice on the radio was particularly clean and pleasant, giving people a convincing power. She never expected that her real voice would be like this. She was indeed the famous "Queen of Change", but her voice was just "changeable".
But Lu Shuai pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Actually, I brought you along because of the publicity needs proposed by the affairs officer, but I think the photos, text records and video records you left behind will be precious materials for understanding this period of history in the future. From the countryside to the city, it is very detailed information that can be compiled into a book. Normally, it is difficult for reporters to spend so much time and effort to record these, especially TV photography. Without the funding from my office, how could your boss be willing to spend so much money to record these?"
Zhou Wanzhen was stunned, and the pen she was writing with slowly stopped.
Lu Shuai smiled again: "But, in fact, I am inviting you. I am paying for it out of my own pocket. Of course, you will not believe it!"
"Of course I believe it!" Bai Susu smiled brightly. "The copyright of the sound, image and text belongs to you. If you hadn't provided financial support, our boss is from Donghai and he wouldn't do a business that loses money."
Lu Shuai smiled and said, "That only means that it was my office that allocated the funds. It has nothing to do with whether I paid for it out of my own pocket."
"Little guy, you are from Quanguan, right? What snacks are famous here?" Lu Shuai suddenly looked over.
Zhou Wanzhen felt her heart beating faster and wanted to say something, but her mind went blank.
"The most delicious snacks in Quanguan are Guifei Chicken and Eighteen Rolls." Bai Suzhen said with a chuckle.
Zhou Wanzhen shook her head in annoyance, then glanced at the teacher who was glaring at her. She sighed inwardly, thinking that she had lost points again.
Lu Shuai has already started talking to Bai Susu, "Eighteen Rolls?"
"It's a kind of dessert, similar to crispy candy." Bai Suzhen explained in a low voice.
Lu Shuai smiled and said, "Okay, I'll buy some for my wife. Actually, this is also considered our honeymoon trip. She has been staying in the RV. Look at the bus following behind us. It actually has a lot of secrets inside. It's a pretty good RV."
Zhou Wanzhen also followed the crowd to look behind the bus, and sure enough, there was a bus that looked a little shabby following behind. If Lu Shuai hadn't said it, it would have been completely inconspicuous.
"Your Highness the Princess..." Bai Su Su looked at the bus, her eyes full of stars.
Zhou Wanzhen snorted in her heart. She was a vain person to begin with. When she saw the real top aristocrat, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Empire, it was already very good that she did not fly over to kiss Her Royal Highness's shoes.
"Let's get off at the stop ahead. I'm going to buy some 18 rolls!" Lu Shuai said with a smile, "As for the bus ride experience here, the fare is still a bit high, and there are no discounts for the elderly and children. For the entire empire, livelihood projects are publicly tendered and handed over to private companies for operation, but they all receive financial subsidies. What's going on here? You reporters, shouldn't you report on these issues? Shouldn't you ask, is it because Quanguan City's financial allocation is insufficient, or is it because there are problems with the operation of private companies, and they only know how to cheat for subsidies?"
No one spoke for a long time. Bai Susu smiled and said, "Marshal, you should ask the local media about your soul-searching question. We seldom leave the provincial capital. Especially our Kunlun Television Broadcasting Company. We have been in Zhenjiang for a short time. Our network in various cities and counties is being rolled out. In fact, our supervision of the people's livelihood and legal system has a good reputation everywhere."
At this time, the bus slowly stopped. Lu Shuai smiled and stood up: "You are right, we have arrived at the stop, let's get off."
