Chapter 40 Interview

Not long after Yu Dong arrived at the office, Youth League Secretary Hu Changqing stood at the door and looked inside. After seeing Yu Dong, he smiled and shouted: "Yu Dong, Principal Wu asked you to go to his office."
"Oh, okay." Yu Dong quickly put down the information in his hand, stood up and walked outside.
After Hu Changqing brought the words, he did not leave. Instead, he walked to the door. He smiled and patted Yu Dong on the shoulder: "Don't worry, it's a good thing."
"What good thing?" Yu Dong asked curiously.
Hu Changqing said with a mysterious face: "It can't be said, it can't be said. You will know when you go there."
Patting Yu Dong's shoulder again, Hu Changqing returned to his office with his hands behind his back.
Yu Dong looked at Hu Changqing's back with a puzzled look on his face. But he was not surprised by Hu Changqing's behavior. Lao Hu liked to sell things off, and he always said half the words and half the words.
He is a good person, but he has a heavy official tone and loves to get into trouble. Many young people in the school don't like him very much.
With doubts, Yu Dong went to Wu Changxin's office.
It was Wu Changxin who obviously called Yu Donglai. When he saw Yu Dong, he seemed a little surprised.
"I thought you wouldn't be able to come back this morning. Things are done?" Wu Changxin said as he opened the drawer and took out an envelope: "Look at this."
Yu Dong stepped forward to take the envelope, saw the content inside, and raised his eyebrows, "The Yangtze Evening News wants to give me an exclusive interview? Why?"
It’s not surprising that he was surprised. The Yangtze Evening News is a local official media in Jinling and usually reports on current political issues. As for Yu Dong, he is a counselor and at most a writer, and he seems to have no connection with the Yangtze Evening News.
Wu Changxin stood up with a smile, pointed to the sofa, and motioned for Yu Dong to sit down and chat.
After sitting down, Wu Changxin pointed to the envelope in Yu Dong's hand and said: "This invitation letter was sent to my office by someone from their agency on Friday. But you were on leave at that time, so you only
I can't tell you until you come back. I got to know the person who sent the invitation, and this interview is mainly about the novel "Mending the Sky"."
"As for why, I think you should be able to guess a little bit now. The background of "Mending the Sky" is Jinling, and it also combines local myths and stories. They think it has more local characteristics and is suitable for promoting local culture."
Yu Dong nodded: "I understand. Principal, what do you think of the interview?"
"Of course I think it's a good thing. It's also a publicity for our school." Wu Changxin smiled and lit a cigarette for himself. "Of course, it still depends on you. They will send someone over tomorrow. If you are willing to accept it,
For the interview, we will directly find a place in the school to do the matter tomorrow. If you don't want to, just wait for them to come over and refuse in person."
"I don't have any objections either."
"Okay, I'll have someone clear out an office for you to use tomorrow."
Yu Dong smiled: "Isn't it a written interview? The environment is not important."
"After all, it is an official media, so we should pay more attention to it. Don't worry, they will ask some simple questions for publicity, and you can answer them casually." After thinking about it, Wu Changxin added: "Of course, more or less.
You should be careful and try not to speak out when you encounter some sensitive issues."
He saw that Yu Dong was young and was afraid that Yu Dong would dare to say anything. If he said something inappropriate on some principled issues, it would not be a good thing for Dong himself or the school.
"Okay, I understand what you mean."
After talking about the "Yangtze Evening News" incident, Wu Changxin asked Yu Dong how his trip to Chengdu went, and Yu Dong told him that everything went well.
Although Wu Changxin didn't say anything, Yu Dong could feel that Wu Changxin was not very optimistic about him writing science fiction novels.
If Yu Dong had contacted "Harvest" instead of "Science Fiction World" this time, I'm afraid Wu Changxin would not have simply asked a few questions, not even the specific work.
Yu Dong can understand this. He has known Wu Changxin for a long time, so he naturally knows Wu Changxin's views on literature. He is not optimistic about science fiction, which is completely normal.
If he was interested in science fiction, Yu Dongcai would really find it strange.
After leaving the principal's office, he met Hu Changqing again. He winked at Yu Dong and said, "Do a good job."

The next day, Yu Dong met with Shao Tianjun, a reporter from the Yangtze Evening News, in the principal's office.
Shao Tianjun is in his forties. He graduated from Guangzhou Broadcasting School and worked in a county-level TV station for ten years. Later, he went to the "Yangtze Evening News" and became the deputy director of the reporter department. He can be regarded as an old reporter.
Although he is already in his forties, Shao Tianjun always pays attention to exercise, so he is in good spirits. He looks like a man in his thirties. However, because he often travels in the field, his skin is darker.
After meeting Yu Dong, Shao Tianjun held Yu Dong's hand and said with emotion: "Although I have heard about the teacher's youth for a long time, fame is not as good as meeting. I still underestimated your youth. When I was your age, what else could I do?
I don’t even understand, I just fool around on the TV station every day.”
"Director Shao is so humble."
"No no."
After the greetings were completed, Shao Tianjun took out a piece of paper from his bag and handed it to Yu Dong: "Teacher Yu, this is the question I want to ask today. If you see anything inappropriate, tell me and we can discuss it."
Yu Dong didn't expect that Shao Tianjun had even sorted out the questions and gave them to him directly. He took the piece of paper and said with a smile: "Actually, Director Shao, you don't have to make this trip. I asked someone to bring these questions over before.
Once you fill it out, I’ll give it to you.”
"That's not possible." Shao Tianjun patted his bag, "Today's interview will be recorded, and these questions are all preliminary. In the end, it will be decided based on the scene. You may suddenly think of some good questions while chatting.
.”
Yu Dong didn't expect that Shao Tianjun was quite formal. There should be a tape recorder in his bag. Apart from the tape recorder, Yu Dong couldn't think of any other recording equipment.
Arriving at the "interview room" prepared by the school, Shao Tianjun turned on the tape recorder and turned on the recording function. The tape was humming in the tape recorder, and Shao Tianjun started today's interview.
"Teacher Yu, you are from Shanghai and went to school in Yanjing. After graduation, you were assigned to work in Jinling. Does this match your previous expectations?"
"Of course, Jinling is a city with a long history. It is definitely an honor for me to work in such a city. It should be said that being able to work in Jinling exceeds my expectations."
Shao Tianjun nodded, and Yu Dong was quite cooperative.
Chapter completed!
