Chapter 292 Talented
Soon it will be Saturday.

Meng Donglai and Wang Manni were preparing lunch in his rental house.

Wang Manni came here last night. After seeing the situation in the room, although she didn't say anything, Meng Donglai, the master of psychology, clearly felt her disappointment.

In the evening, Meng Dong came and asked Wang Manni not to go back and live here, but Wang Manni did not agree in the end.

I guess I was weighing it in my mind.

Ding dong, ding dong!
The doorbell rang.

Wang Manni opened the door, and Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu stood outside.

It's rare that Chen Yu didn't work overtime today and accompanied Zhong Xiaoqin to the appointment.

"Welcome! Welcome!" Wang Manni welcomed the two of them in: "No need to change slippers."

"Wow! It's so rich!" Zhong Xiaoqin said in surprise when she saw that there were five dishes on the table.

"Welcome, you can have a taste of my cooking today." Meng Donglai also came out of the kitchen to greet him, and stretched out his hand towards Chen Yu: "Hello, I am Meng Donglai."

"Hello, Chen Yu." Chen Yu reached out to shake his hand, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

He probably remembered the quarrel between Meng Donglai and his wife that day. Now that he has a girlfriend, he knew it was a misunderstanding.

"It's very hard to find here." Zhong Xiaoqin shouted from the side: "If it weren't for Chen Yu, I probably wouldn't be able to find it."

It's really childish to say that.

"It's okay. I'm a journalist and I'm familiar with this kind of old community." Chen Yu hurried to make up for it.

"Everyone sit down, it will be ready soon, drink some drinks first, my homemade mixed juice, pregnant women can also drink." Meng Donglai invited the two to the dining table.

The five local dishes on the table are all delicious in color, fragrance, and are no worse than those in star-rated hotels.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking. These dishes look delicious just by looking at them." Chen Yu praised.

"Yes, yes, it looks much better than what my mother made." Zhong Xiaoqin also said.

"Hahaha, thank you for the compliment. You should eat more later. You know, for a cook, CDs are the greatest compliment to him." Meng Donglai replied with a smile: "You guys drink first, I There are still a few more dishes.”

Wang Manni poured Meng Dong's self-made juice for the two of them. Curious, she also poured herself a glass and tasted it.

Then I found it tasted really good.

"Wow, what kind of fairy juice is this? It's even better than what we drank at the vegetarian restaurant that day." Zhong Xiaoqin's eyes lit up after taking a sip.

"I made it myself, without any additives at all, you can drink it with confidence, it is very good for your body." Meng Dong replied back.

The materials for making the drink were exchanged by him from the Recommended Bian Mall. Compared with the meager income that can be seen in this mission world, this is considered a cost for him.

"Such delicious juice, if you open a store to sell it, you will definitely make a lot of money." Chen Yu gave a pertinent evaluation.

"It can't be commercialized, not to mention the high cost. Because there are no additives, it is not durable to storage. This glass of juice is not considered labor costs. The cost of buying fruit alone exceeds 100. Pricing is also a problem." Meng Donglai said He replied while cooking.

"Is it so expensive? Didn't I already drink ten yuan in one sip just now?" Zhong Xiaoqin looked at the ordinary-sized glass water glass in her hand, feeling as if she was holding a hundred-yuan bill.

The better hand ground coffee is not so expensive.

"That's right, ordinary people wouldn't spend such a high price to buy it even if they want to eat it." Meng Donglai said.

"That's right, it's really delicious, but if I spend a few hundred yuan to buy it, I will feel bad." Zhong Xiaoqin took another sip and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

In fact, the cost of this glass of juice can be blocked by 100 yuan.

Although its efficacy is very outstanding, Meng Donglai can't promote it, otherwise, if someone tests it, the DNA of your fruit doesn't exist in this world at all. How can you explain it?

So it can only be used by yourself.

"Let me help you." Chen Yu felt a little bored sitting at the dining table, and went into the kitchen to help.

The two women moved directly to the sofa and started chatting.

Although Meng Donglai's house is rented, the facilities inside are very complete. It is not as good as Wang Manni. She is reluctant to buy a water dispenser that can be purchased online for more than 100 yuan, but she can buy a pair of shoes for thousands of yuan.

Meng Donglai purchased a complete set of furniture and appliances for the rental house.

The two women turned on the TV and began to chat about some work and life topics.

The two girls of similar age became more and more speculative as they talked, and by the time dinner was ready, they had already become best friends, as if they had known each other for many years.

Women are so miraculous, they get better quickly and leave quickly.

With Chen Yu's help, Meng Donglai quickly finished the rest of the dishes.

There are six dishes in public, plus a soup and a dessert.

"Let's eat."

After saying hello, the four of them sat down at the dining table.

Meng Donglai filled up the juice for several people, and then raised his own cup: "Thank you, Ms. Zhong, for your righteous words and help. You are really a hero among women."

"Hehehehe, okay, let's toast to the hero of the female high school." Zhong Xiaoqin was amused, and readily accepted the title.

After the four people toasted, they began to enjoy a big meal.

While eating and chatting, Chen Yu gradually admired Meng Donglai's insight.

He is a journalist. He sees a lot, knows a lot, and learns a lot. He has a wider knowledge than ordinary people, but compared to Meng Donglai, he is like an otaku.

There was nothing they couldn't talk about that Meng Donglai couldn't catch up with, and there was nothing he didn't understand that Meng Donglai didn't understand.

Moreover, Meng Donglai was able to provide evaluation and analysis from a high position.

Just like the current excesses and contradictions between TV news and new media, Meng Donglai felt as if he had come from the future. He said something that made Chen Yu suddenly enlightened.

"I think communication with the masses is very important, and new media is very efficient in this regard. Like TV news, you always feel separated from the masses. When your news is broadcast, if you want to get feedback, you need the masses to call, Write a letter, and a comment from the new media will solve it."

"Calling and writing letters can only represent the views of individuals, and the views of the majority of the masses may be hidden. And your news direction is too heavily influenced by leaders and policies. New media is different. The point of a comment The number of likes represents the degree of approval of this comment among the masses."

"Some people say that people's livelihood news is dead, investigative journalists are gone, and there are only a hundred or so investigative journalists left in a country with more than one billion people. I don't think that's actually the case."

"How?" Chen Yu asked.

"Although short videos are eye-catching and fragmented reading is dominant, the times are developing, and the spiritual needs of the people are also growing. Now that medium and long videos have gradually become popular, what does this mean?" Meng Donglai asked road.

"Are there many people who like to read deeply?" Chen Yu tentatively replied.

"That's right, there are more and more people who like to understand the ins and outs of events, and like the news to have a beginning and an end. This is an unstoppable trend. The previous era where a small clip out of context can guide public opinion is destined to become a thing of the past." Meng Meng Back and forth.

"Then what does this have to do with investigative reporters?" Chen Yu likes the profession of investigative reporters very much and is very capable.

In the TV series, he was the one who lurked into the counterfeiting chain and justified Zhong Xiaoqin's name.

"Although the investigation industry belongs to traditional media, its development is not opposed to new media, and even new media can provide new opportunities for the development of the investigation industry."

"Nowadays, many news websites have set up special in-depth investigation columns, relying on the new investigation team of traditional media and using new media methods to incubate investigative news in line with the development of the times."

"In addition to directly transferring investigative news to new media, many investigative columns have also chosen a different way of survival."

"Do you know that Xiaoli from Henan can help you?" Meng Donglai asked.

"Well, it's very popular on various short video platforms." Chen Yu replied.

"Then why hasn't a second 'Xiao Li helped' appeared for so long?" Meng Donglai asked.

"too difficult."

"Yes, it's too difficult. The investigation industry has many difficulties in seeking the truth, and it also faces constraints such as policies and leadership. It is too difficult to tell the truth and do practical things. Doesn't it mean that the benefits after success are high? Is it?" Meng Donglai asked back.

"Yeah, it's really rare for Xiaoli to help her grow from a few Xiaolis to dozens of Xiaolis in the past few years. It's really rare to go upstream." Chen Yu showed sincere admiration.

"It has a beginning and an end, it has a beginning and an end, it is well-founded, it is not afraid of power, and it speaks for the masses. If the news can do these things, why worry about declining? The eyes of the masses are sharp." Meng Donglai instilled presuppositions in Chen Yu Good concept.

All of these concepts can withstand scrutiny and are all true.

It also fits Chen Yu's character.

If he can find out his future development direction from these words, maybe he can really jump over the dragon's gate.

Rather than the end of the hero, doing nothing to raise fish at home.

"That's very good. When I first started working, I followed those old reporters and investigated news day and night. After so many years, as the older generation of reporters gradually retired or retreated behind the scenes, it gradually seemed It became different." Chen Yu seemed to recall his passion when he first started working.

Think about it, now you can only report some trivial news about people's livelihood, not only the masses don't like to watch it, but also the relevant departments don't pay attention to it.

The news of a damaged road has been broadcast for several months, and passing by again, the damage is still broken.

But new media is different.

A group of people took a mobile phone and recorded the damaged road in front of their house. As soon as the car passed by, it made a creaking sound when it fell into the pit and rubbed against the chassis.

After a few days of continuous live broadcast, someone hurried over to repair the road.

For a TV station, remember, who would dare to do this?The next day, a leader will come and reprimand you, saying that you are destroying the harmony between units.

Hey, it's hard to say.

"What you said is so difficult to understand. Donglai, Manny was rewarded by the company for a European cruise trip. Will you go with her?" Zhong Xiaoqin was obviously not interested in such dull topics.

"Really? How many days? Is it from China by boat?" Meng Donglai asked.

From China to Europe, it can take up to a month.

"No, first go to Europe by plane, and then take a cruise. The whole journey is [-] days in total." Wang Manni replied.

Originally, she wanted to tell Meng Donglai the news last night, and invited him to go with her by the way.

But when I saw Meng Donglai's rental house last night, my mind was a little confused, and I forgot to tell the news in the end.

"That's good. During the current epidemic, the cost of traveling abroad has increased more than ten times than before. Your company has spent a lot of money this time." Meng Donglai praised.

"Yeah, but my losses are quite big. Although I don't spend money to travel, I have to take fifteen days off and have to be quarantined for two weeks when I come back. During this time, I can only get a basic salary, which is only a few thousand yuan, and I have to pay rent. It's all quite annoying." Wang Manni replied.

This is because she has been promoted to sales supervisor, otherwise the basic salary is estimated to be only two to three thousand.

"No one knows what the world will look like in the future. If you have the opportunity to go out and play, go out and play, take good precautions, the opportunity is rare." Meng Donglai said.

"I think so too. If I want to travel at my own expense with my income, I probably won't have a chance in this life." Wang Manni nodded.

"Will you go with Manny?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked again.

Wang Manni also looked at Meng Donglai with calm eyes, with some expectations and some explorations.

If Meng Donglai wants to go, he has to pay by himself, and it costs 10,000+ to come down.

Although he was able to spend money to buy luxury clothes last time, after Wang Manni's understanding these days, Meng Donglai should not have much money.

He may be really making money doing self-media, but he is also really lavish.

"I can't. You know I have a home for stray animals. I have to take care of the cats and dogs. I can't leave for a month." Meng Donglai shook his head.

"What a pity. It's so rare for two people to have an intimate trip." Zhong Xiaoqin's regret was even more obvious than Wang Manni's.

"It's okay, online travel is popular now, and when we read Manni's travel notes, it will be considered half of us." Meng Donglai expressed some self-consolation.

Chen Yu thought that he might not be able to go because of money, so he quickly changed the topic again.

"Actually, there are so many scenic spots in China, and we didn't understand them. In the future, there will be opportunities to live together."

"Tch, why didn't I see you took me out to play." Zhong Xiaoqin answered immediately.

"I'm too busy working."

"You, go with work."

The two almost quarreled in the end, and Wang Manni quickly persuaded him when he saw that the situation was not right.

Coincidentally, as soon as the meal was finished, Chen Yu's phone rang, and when he hung up, he said something was up at work, and he went out and drove away.

Zhong Xiaoqin was left sitting on the sofa sulking, while Wang Manni comforted her.

Meng Donglai poured drinks for the two of them, and went back to the bedroom by himself, leaving the two of them to chat about some private topics in the living room.

After more than two hours, Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin walked in together.

"Are you writing a novel?" Zhong Xiaoqin looked at the densely packed text on Meng Donglai's computer.

"No, I'm an official account, and I plan to expand my business scope." Meng Dong said back and forth, and then pointed to the text on the page: "These texts can attract some people who like to read, and then I can Make medium and long videos, so that the audience of my content will be greatly expanded.”

"Let me see." Zhong Xiaoqin usually prefers writing, and under the influence of Chen Yu, she also likes recording and writing.

The writing is very good, and the writing is more delicate.

Looking at Meng Donglai’s article, it is a long article about “investigative journalists”.

"This is, you wrote it based on what you said at the dinner table just now?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked.

"That's right, I opened up my mind while chatting at the dinner table just now, so I quickly recorded it." Meng Donglai nodded.

"You are so talented." Zhong Xiaoqin praised.

Wang Manni felt a little sour as she watched from the side.

However, he knew that there could be nothing between the two of them, so he didn't say much.

Thinking of Meng Donglai who is handsome, has a good body, can sing, write, shoot videos, cook, and is very caring.

If such a high-quality boy is discovered by those rich girls, he will probably be regarded as a treasure.

Maybe I should cherish him.

But, is this what you want?

For a while, Wang Manni was a little confused.

She wants true love, but if this love is accompanied by trivial matters, it is not what she wants.

Meng Donglai may have potential, but she is already 30 years old.

Can you afford to wait?
