The host is red and black, and the system can only chirp

Chapter 49: Maximum Social Security and World Press Photo Award

Director Guan's first half of life can be described as eventful, and he was once a guiding light in the hearts of countless journalists.

Director Guan, who had always been successful, suffered a disastrous defeat this year.

Being in the prime of life, he experienced an extreme collapse - how could a leader send a correspondent abroad and send his own kid to DU Xiao's home!

Yes, when he sent him over, he didn't know that the boy Agan would seize power in just a few months and become the agent of the second largest drug trafficking group in Caigui Country.

No, according to the latest news, Mendel has surpassed the Blue Sky Command and has become the largest DU trafficking group in the Colorful Turtle Country in a short period of time.

But that's not important.

The point is that Director Guan has already let his own son down... "After all, you broke the law abroad. You must be awarded the honors you deserve, and you must bear the punishments you deserve."

I have to say, it was embarrassing for Director Guan to say this.

The child has just returned from a life-threatening situation.

If Xi Mingming had not inexplicably become internationally famous, the matter could have been completely swept under the rug in the country.

How is it like now?

After finishing the final work with the public security system and issuing the "Top Ten Journalists" certificates, the station leaders did not even wait for the next day to issue a letter of appointment.

Xi Mingming is stationed in Jingxiang Province as an expatriate reporter, responsible for news reporting in the Jingxiang region of Taiwan.

====

So, Xi Mingming returned to his hometown with honor.

Is this considered... an invisible demotion?

Xi Mingming didn't care. Her position was promoted, her salary increased, and the maximum amount of five insurances and one fund were paid. She completely accepted it without any problem.

……

Xi Mingming really had nothing else to ask for.

The number and level of criminals she sent to prison in this life, whether directly or indirectly, can barely be considered worthy of the teachings of her teachers in her previous life.

As for the seniors who were implicated by her... Xi Mingming looked up at the gray sky of the city: "I hope there is more than one system in this world. I hope the seniors will be luckier than me."

Our predecessors deserve to live again.

====

Aunt Qin and Uncle Qin personally rushed to the provincial capital to pick them up.

Facing the tearful elders, Xi Mingming looked up at the sky in silence: "How afraid are the station that I will cause trouble?"

System: [Do you want to cause trouble or not? Host, don’t you have any sense of AC? ]

In another country, he robbed a DU dealer of a sniper rifle, and in the counterattack he shot and killed one person, crippled one person, and injured two people in succession... He pretended to be nothing happened in public, but how long had he been having nightmares behind the scenes?

It’s a pity that outsiders don’t know.

The station was worried that the host was too cruel and that it would cause disputes if he was sent abroad. A foreign correspondent? I will never be stationed abroad in my lifetime.

If it wasn't late that night, the three of them would have dragged the disabled Taiwanese into the consulate immediately after they finished their business... [It's still unclear whether you can return to China. ]

Understand the systematic principles of communication between countries.

The system instigates the host to kill people and doesn't think anything of it. But when it gets beaten, the host can't fight back?

The system really didn't anticipate that the relationships between countries would be so complex.

[Fortunately, the Consulate General was firm and never agreed to those people taking you away.]

Xi Mingming: [You are talking nonsense. Who dares to break into the Chinese Consulate General abroad without permission? Is this what happened a dozen years ago? When the embassy was bombed, they just apologized for the accidental bombing? Breaking into the consulate is equivalent to an invasion of China. Who dares to do that now?]

====

No matter how hard he tried to escape, Xi Mingming still had to face Aunt Qin's tear attack.

"Mingming, your grandpa is here too. Qin Jiaye has already been handed over to the country, and we three can't count on him." Aunt Qin said, "We're counting on you to take care of us in our old age, Mingming."

"Is it okay?" This was probably the first time in Aunt Qin's life that she learned to speak softly.

Uncle Qin was extremely nervous.

How could an uncle's family live with his niece?

Isn't this bullying the child?

But what can the elders do?

Mingming's biological father died early, his grandmother and uncle are not human beings, and his biological mother... Uncle Qin wishes that this person had never existed in the world.

But children should not bear the sin.

Their elders had just been informed by Qin Jiaye’s leader that the child had been showing self-destructive tendencies since high school.

How can we feel at ease if their parents are not watching over them in person?

……

"Of course, of course. That's what I want." Xi Mingming looked towards the high dome of the airport and answered repeatedly.

Is her reputation so bad?

Before going abroad, she had already told Qin Jianye that she would live a serious life after returning home after her overseas mission ended.

=====

The CCTV's overseas journalists have a certain status in local places, and Xi Mingming is well-known, so his life is really easy.

If there is any first-hand information, people generally won't miss her.

Therefore, Xi Mingming's reports are timely, accurate and sharp.

……

Time passes quickly in peaceful days.

In April of the following year, Director Guan, who cared about his subordinates, called again and said, "Xi Mingming, your photo 'He Just Comes of Age' won the World Press Photo Award."

"Ah? What prize?"

Xi Mingming thought, she didn't lose her memory. Not only did she not lose her memory in this life, she also remembered things from her previous life clearly. How could she not know whether she had signed up or not?

"'He just came of age'..." Xi Mingming quickly responded: "Benny?"

The World Press Photo Awards is a world press photo competition. It was initiated in the Netherlands, hence the name World Press Photo. It is the most authoritative event among international professional press photo competitions.

Director Guan explained: "The News Center registered for you. The entry is the photo of Mendel leaning over the coffin and holding Benny, with his face buried in Benny's neck."

……

Before Benny's burial.

When the soil was scattered on the coffin, Uncle Ada could no longer bear it.

He suddenly stood up, pushed everyone away, jumped into the burial pit, opened the coffin lid with his bare hands, picked up Benny and was reluctant to let go for a long time.

Xi Mingming recorded the sadness of that moment.

The desolate cemetery under the setting sun, the father's grieving back, and the young man shot in the head.

……

"I'll help you arrange your vacation. The World Press Photo Awards Ceremony will be held on the evening of April 4th. You should get ready to go," said Director Guan.

He didn't say anything else and went straight back to the front desk when he came back.

Originally, sending Xi Mingming abroad was just a temporary measure.

Xi Mingming felt no joy at winning the award.

Benny lay in the coffin, and she was one of the people carrying the body. The cold touch still lingers on her palms.

As a young man who suffered a lot of injustice, Benny neither complained nor followed the crowd. He tried to do his best to care for children who had the same experience as him.

I hope their childhood will be a little more colorful, and I also hope their future will have more choices than his.

"No need, boss." The blue light of the phone reflected Xi Mingming's cold face, "I'm not interested in receiving the award."

The World Press Photo Awards ceremony is attended by the world's top journalists.

Not mentioning bonuses and fame, not mentioning expanding personal connections... just saying that it's for future global reporting is not something we should refuse.

Director Guan was silent for a long time, sighed, and said nothing more.

I just gave you an order: "You are allowed to stay in your hometown until the end of this year, but come back at the beginning of next year."

……

Fiona Tia, chair of the World Press Photo Awards jury, said:

“This is a deeply moving work. Just seeing it will leave a mark in your mind. It is full of stories and metaphors - in peacetime, the horror of unstable areas is no less than that of war, and the futile struggle of civilians is so pale.”

Even people who only looked at the photos had such exclamations, let alone Xi Mingming who experienced it personally.
