After walking out of Napton's office, Jiang Changye saw Tina waiting for him in the garden.
Smiling, Jiang Changye walked over and gave her a thumbs up: "Nice job. How about that girl?"
Tina smiled: "I was dismissed, but that's not important. The point is that I managed to keep my position. I don't owe you anything anymore. I don't need to promise you anything anymore."
Jiang Changye nodded: "Yes. Maybe I will ask you for help in the future, but this will be a new deal, and you have the right to refuse."
"certainly."
The two of them just walked side by side.
Tina looked at him doubtfully: "Can you tell me what role you played in this matter?"
Jiang Changye responded in a long voice: "It's not important. We are people from two different worlds, not the same kind. It won't be of any benefit to you to know what I have experienced."
He stopped and looked at Tina: "For you, staying away is the most appropriate thing."
Tina shook her head: "Maybe, but sometimes we have no choice. Today Schmidt came to see me and he asked me about last night."
"how do you say?"
"The prevarication has nothing to do with me. It's purely a coincidence. But Schmidt is not easy to fool. He can guess some things."
Tina put her hand on Jiang Changye's shoulder: "I lied to Annie yesterday and told her that my position was temporary. But then I thought about it and realized that it was not a lie. After this incident, Shi
Mitt will let me down sooner or later, but someone else will be on top. While I am still in that position, I want to make a new deal with you."
Jiang Changye nodded: "Which position will I keep you in?"
"No!" Tina shook her head: "I don't want to work for that bastard Schmidt anymore, but I haven't decided what to do yet. Maybe you can give me advice... or make arrangements."
Jiang Changye understood the meaning.
After thinking for a while he said: "I will seriously consider this issue."
The two of them walked out of Changqing Street talking and just strolled on the street.
Unconsciously, we came to the road along the river.
The river meanders all the way, and the tree-lined avenue is refreshing and clean.
Midsummer has arrived, and most pedestrians are wearing cool clothes. It is also a beautiful scenery.
As I was walking at this moment, I saw a large group of people approaching from the distance.
They held up slogans and shouted loudly.
“The Sheriff’s Department is incompetent!”
"Find out the real culprit!"
"Justice to the people!"
"Lawrence stands down!"
A large number of people just swarmed over and burst out with their angry shouts.
"Parade!" Jiang Changye smiled.
The explosion in the old district ignited the anger of the people. Many people pointed the finger directly at the mayor, and a huge demonstration was officially launched - not far from the city hall.
At this moment, seeing a large number of people blocking the city hall, Jiang Changye looked at Tina: "Why don't you do an on-site interview."
"I am not an on-site reporter now. Of course, due to the professional ethics of a reporter, I should seize every opportunity. But I am also realizing something... Sometimes it is better to have a good hug than to do a good job." Tina
Smiling at Jiang Changye.
Jiang Changye was also happy: "I'm just a recent graduate, not a big deal."
Tina hummed softly: "I don't know how much role you played in this matter, but don't think of me as a fool."
As she spoke, she pointed to the marchers in the front row: "What do you think of this?"
"There will be no results." Jiang Changye replied, "It's just a pointless venting."
"You don't believe in the power of the people?" Tina was surprised.
Jiang Changye shook his head gently: "Yes, I don't believe it."
"But this is a democratic world."
"Come on." Jiang Changye sneered: "In a world where one person can control everything, how can there be real democracy? You have to understand that the reason why the people have a certain say now is entirely because of that situation a hundred years ago.
A gift from Luo Yuanhang. A gift! Do you know what a gift is?
That is to say, this is not something they have fought for. It is not something they have fought for with blood, sweat and tears. It is destined to have too many restrictions. They have the right to shout, but it is just a shout. When the above needs to use this cry, their
If you call for it, it has value. If you don’t need it, it has no value.”
Tina looked at Jiang Changye in surprise: "You said public opinion is worthless?"
"To be precise, it's only worth being used." Jiang Changye replied coldly.
The biggest difference between this place and Earth is the existence of extraordinary power.
The power at the grassroots level that is forcibly given by a more extraordinary force is destined to have many distortions, forming a deformed product that appears to be useful to public opinion but is actually useless.
Can Lawrence be taken care of in one parade?
No, let alone the Pure Land, even on earth, this kind of thing is very difficult.
Tina was still a little unwilling to give up: "But at least Lawrence can make some concessions."
"Oh, then it depends on what kind of concession and performance." Jiang Changye murmured and looked ahead.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a blast in the distance, and a flame suddenly rose up.
What is going on?
Tina looked in shock and saw a sudden commotion among the marchers. Flames were rising everywhere. Someone was throwing Molotov cocktails at the city hall. The entire march was in chaos.
The next moment the police sirens blared, but a large number of armed men appeared and arrested the demonstrators.
The gunshots were loud, and the whole Changming was in chaos. The marchers panicked and fled in all directions, only to be chased and arrested by fierce armed men.
Tina was completely shocked.
She wanted to get closer, but Jiang Changye pulled her away.
He said: "Let's go, there's nothing to see."
Tina shook her head repeatedly: "How could this happen? What happened?"
Jiang Changye said coldly: "Go back to the station immediately and prepare to broadcast the news... Red Fox Station will tell you what happened, and you will be responsible for telling the public."
Tina realized: "But that's not true, is it?"
Jiang Changye sneered: "Who cares?"
……………………
On the evening news, Tina was sitting in the anchor chair.
Holding the speech script, she spoke in a heavy tone: "Just today, a group of thugs attacked the City Hall. They attacked the City Hall under the guise of a parade. This matter does not rule out traces of manipulation by foreigners from abroad. Please also ask the general public
Citizens, please be aware, exercise restraint and rationality, and do not be easily taken advantage of by outsiders."
"Also: Mayor Lawrence has officially announced that he will fully launch a re-investigation of the bombing in the old district. The former Director of the Sheriff's Department, Gaskin, made a huge mistake in this matter and resigned, and Deputy Director Dale will take over."
"Director Dale said that he will never let down the people's expectations and will find the real culprit and provide justice to all people."
"The mayoral candidate Mr. Knapton gave a speech and announced that if he is successfully elected as mayor, he will strengthen the city's public security system, invest more efforts in protecting people's safety, and announced that he will close suburban chemical plants."
"The candidate, Mr. Bodie, just expressed his intention to withdraw from this election."
