Pablo naturally didn't care about this woman he met by chance. He ran out of the Express Hotel in a daze, his mind full of the roar of the editor-in-chief just now.

It is quite far from the headquarters of the Daily Sports News. Pablo finally stopped a night shift taxi and rushed to the newspaper.

On the way, Pablo became more and more worried the more he thought about it. He couldn't help but call an editor he knew - the editor named Hilkins happened to be on duty tonight, and this point should be in the newspaper office, and there must be no rest.

No one answered the phone at the beginning, but after a while, Hilkins came back to him.

Pablo quickly answered and asked, "Hilkins, what happened? Why is the editor-in-chief so angry?"

Hilkins was silent for a moment, then whispered with a hint of sympathy: "Pablo, you should hurry up and report back to the office! Things are getting big..."

"I'm already on my way to the newspaper office!" Pablo said, "Tell me what's wrong first!"

Hilkins said vaguely: "You open Facebook and check it out... I can't tell you more. Now the editorial department is in chaos! I just ran out and called you, so I have to go over immediately... Don't call me again!"

After saying that, Hilkins hurriedly hung up the phone. If it weren't for the fact that they had a personal relationship, Hilkins might have blocked Pablo's mobile phone number directly. At this time, Pablo had become the target of public criticism, and his reputation soon became terrible. Who would still be willing to get involved with him?

Pablo couldn't help but curse a few words as he heard the busy voice coming from his phone.

But at least Hilkins gave him some tips, and he quickly opened his Facebook on his phone. Without surprise, the backend message reminder had turned 99+. In the past few days, Chinese netizens went to his Facebook to get water when they had nothing to do. He was used to it.

Pablo didn't have the heart to check the news, so he opened his latest post, which was the video of interviewing the so-called Barcelona annual member Meyers. He was stunned when he entered.

Originally, there were not many messages from Chinese netizens in this video, most of which were cheering by Barcelona fans, but now it has been captured by Chinese netizens again.

But Pablo was still a little puzzled - this is not the first time a Chinese netizen has come to slaughter the page on his Facebook page. Is the newspaper editor so angry? The Chinese netizen who went to Facebook two times before, although he was scolded very badly, his fame has also been greatly improved, and the topic of "Daily Sports News" has also been greatly enhanced. He also received a bonus of 1,000 euros! Why did he suddenly change his attitude today?

Pablo looked through a few comments - the comments from Chinese netizens were copied from the post bar, and there were only a few versions in total.

At first Pablo didn't feel anything, but when he saw a comment that had just been refreshed, his face suddenly turned pale - this comment brought a picture, which was a screenshot from the video taken by Song Wei, and it was a very representative screenshot. There was game time on the scoreboard, and the score between the two sides, the squirts in the field had been opened, the Espanyol players were scattered and there were still scattered Barcelona fans in the opposite stands leaving the court, which can be said to have perfectly reflected the whole thing.

The comment text is very simple, just a few words: Pablo, does your face hurt?

In fact, the one who left a message here is the advance force of Chinese netizens. Many netizens who have just started working have not had time to enter the battlefield, but the number of messages has been quite considerable.

Pablo vaguely guessed what was going on. His fingers trembled. He found several other Spanish sports media in his followers and clicked in.

He did not find the account of his boss Daily Sports News, because he knew that at this time, Daily Sports News would definitely not have any reports or responses.

Sure enough, Pablo found a top post on the Facebook page of "Marca", and the title was very eye-catching - "Pablo! Shame of the Press!"

Pablo almost recited it with a sigh of relief when he saw this title.

He took a deep breath, opened the post, watched it from beginning to end, and especially after watching the video seriously, Pablo no longer had any luck in his heart.

His face turned pale as paper, and he collapsed in the back seat of the taxi, his eyes empty and confused.

The taxi driver driving in front looked at Pablo through the rearview mirror of the car. Because he looked really scary, the driver even doubted whether this guy had taken drugs, and thought to himself, don't die in my car...

Fortunately, although Pablo looked desperate, he was still breathing at least. The taxi driver kept observing Pablo's condition for a few seconds and finally drove the car to the door of the newspaper.

"Hey! buddy! I'm here!" The taxi driver couldn't help but remind him when he saw Pablo sitting in his seat.

Pablo's eyes moved, and he turned his head and looked at the newspaper building next to him with difficulty, then moved out of the car.

"Free!" the taxi driver reminded.

Pablo took out his wallet from his pocket with a dull expression, took out a hundred euro bill, threw it in from the car window on the side of the passenger seat without even looking at it, and then turned around and left.

"I want to find you money!" shouted the taxi driver.

But Pablo turned a deaf ear and walked towards the newspaper building with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The taxi driver shouted a few times, and when he saw Pablo ignored him, he gave up. He reached out to pick up the bill from the passenger seat, bounced it with his fingers, and then said to Pablo in the direction: "Thank you!"

After saying that, he kicked the accelerator and left.

Pablo walked into the newspaper building, his mind was blank at this time. He didn't even know how he took the elevator to the floor where the editorial department was located.

As soon as he walked into the big office, several colleagues who were on duty and those who were temporarily called back to discuss dealing with the crisis all looked up at the same time, including Hilkins, who was on duty tonight.

Their eyes looked at Pablo in a complicated way, some with some pity, while those with poor relationships usually showed a hint of gloating.

Hilkins and Pablo had a good personal relationship. He hesitated for a while and still reminded in a low voice: "Pablo, the editor-in-chief is waiting for you in the office... Be careful, he is very angry now!"

Pablo's lifeless eyes were cast at Hilkins, then nodded his head in a dull look, turning his head toward the chief executive's office opposite the large office.

Pablo knocked on the door of the chief executive’s office, and a irritating voice came from inside: “Who?”

"Editor-in-chief, it's me..." Pablo said.

After a few seconds, the door of the editor-in-chief's office was suddenly opened, revealing the editor-in-chief's bald head. His eyes seemed to be about to eat people, staring at Pablo tightly. Then, the roaring curses echoed in the office area.

"Pablo! You stupid pig!" Vesco cursed with spit, "You messed up everything! Do you understand? Do you have any brains? The other party obviously dug a hole and waited for you to jump in! You idiot are still complacent!"

Pablo was a little numb to Editor-in-Chief Wells' storm-like scolding. At this moment, his mind was basically in a state of improperness and could not even say a word of explanation.

After Weirs scolded for a while, he was a little dry-mouthed. He glared at Pablo fiercely and said, "Come in!"

Pablo mechanically followed Wells into the office, then sat on the sofa, his face as if dead.

Wells raised his eyebrows and almost couldn't help but curse again - if an employee was so unruly in his office, he would definitely kick the employee out without mercy.

But now Wells felt a little weak, and he returned to the back of his desk and sat down, staring at Pablo with sharp eyes, and asked, "Didn't you tell me yesterday that you found a powerful witness? Now tell me, what the hell is going on with that Meyers?"

If it weren't for the video Xia Rufei released tonight, then the video of Pablo interviewing Meyers would be very convincing. After all, Meyers told the story of the incident from the perspective of a live witness, and the Daily Sports News quickly forwarded Pablo.

Although the credibility of the Daily Sports Daily is also at the toilet level, several major Spanish football newspapers have clear tendencies. Simply put, they are stationed in Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively, so the tendency is naturally very obvious when reporting, which is not a big problem.

In any case, this is a traditional media with a long history. They maintain a certain tendency, but they still have basic credibility.

So most people chose to believe this interview video, and at the same time they also had some doubts about Ruby's remarks at the press conference.

The video released by Xia Rufei, shot by Song Wei, has clearly recorded everything that happened at that time, indicating that Ruby did not lie. The Camp Nou Stadium did turn on the water spray system before Espanyol players left the stadium. And it was not what they said. Espanyol players celebrated unscrupulously on the away game and refused to stand - even the Barcelona fans in the stands are still leaving the court. How could these Barcelona fans be interested in watching Espanyol celebrate? Therefore, the time when the water spray system is turned on should not be long before the end of the game.

Since Ruby was not lying, there was something wrong with this interview video of Meyers.

And it's not an ordinary problem. To put it bluntly, this is a complete fake news. Meyes's words in the video were assured. It originally provided the most powerful shells to counterattack for Barcelona fans, but now they have become the most ironic facts and are unexplainable evidence.

Under Wells' burning gaze, Pablo couldn't help but lower his head. He stumbled: "Meyes is indeed a member of Barcelona's annual ticket, and he is a hardcore..."

"Who is asking you this?" Wells interrupted Pablo rudely and asked, "I'm asking what's going on with this interview video? Why did Meyers talk nonsense in front of the camera?"

Pablo trembled slightly and said, "I...I gave him...I gave him three hundred euros and asked him to be interviewed according to what I designed..."

Wells was so angry that he could smoke. He wanted to take out his gun and directly send Pablo to Tutu.

Pablo's slutty operation directly dragged the Daily Sports News down the sewage puddle. Even if he broke free, he would inevitably be covered in mud.

Pablo quickly explained: "Editor-in-chief, Meyes is really a hardcore Barcelona fan. I found him and hoped that he could cooperate with such an interview. He accepted it very happily. He also said that even if I don't give it money, he will accept it. As long as he can maintain Barcelona's reputation, he will do anything!"

Wells stared at Pablo coldly and asked back, "So what? Now that the scandal has broken out, what will be helpful to the nonsense you said?"

Pablo's mind flashed, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He said in a hurry: "Editor-in-Chief, we...we can be said that Meyers deceived us! He is a loyal fan of Barcelona. In order to maintain the image of Barcelona, ​​he took the initiative to come out for an interview and compiled false facts. We just didn't find out that he was lying at the first time, so we broadcast the interview video..."

Pablo said the more he said, "Mr. Wells, although we have faults, it is not a flaw in the news morality. At most, it is a mistake in the news business. He has not fulfilled the obligation of serious verification of news materials..."

Wells' face was unstable, and he was actually very conflicted.

During the public opinion storm these days, the Daily Sports Daily has been supporting Pablo for its own considerations. To be honest, Wells has doubted the authenticity of Pablo's posts, but he did not expect Pablo to be so brave and directly fabricate fake news.

Now the Daily Sports News is a bit difficult. In a sense, Pablo and Daily Sports News are already one. If it were said directly that Pablo spent money to hire people to fabricate fake news and the newspaper was in a bad mood, no one would believe it.

Therefore, if the Daily Sports News wants to protect itself, it really has to protect Pablo. Although Wells wants to cut Pablo into pieces now, he has to consider it from the perspective of the newspaper.

In this way, Pablo's proposal just now really made Wells feel a little moved.

Pablo also came alive at this time, and his heart was full of hope, because he knew very well that once he had confirmed that he spent money to hire people to do fake news, it would not be just a problem of losing his job in the Daily Sports News. With such a stain, even if his career is over, it would be like bankruptcy of integrity. Which media would dare to hire him?

Now, only by holding on to the Daily Sports News and making Wells realize that Pablo and Daily Sports News are grasshoppers on the same rope can there be a glimmer of hope.

Wells had a gloomy face and said after a while: "Pablo, the newspaper is not aware of it! Even if you explain it according to what you said, you can't escape responsibility! You are the first person in charge of this matter! Do you still expect to continue working in the newspaper?"

In fact, Wells has weighed the trade-offs. Instead of dealing with it in the case that the newspaper was hiring people to fabricate fake news, it was better to deal with it in accordance with Pablo's lying to Meyes without knowing it, so it would have a smaller impact on the newspaper. So in fact, I have already agreed with Pablo's proposal.

But Wells really hated Pablo in his heart. How could he eliminate the hatred in his heart if he didn't fire him?

Pablo turned pale and said, "Mr. Wells, I have been in the newspaper for so many years and work hard! I also started from the newspaper's standpoint. I was just confused about the news video. Now, if you say something, I will lose my job, which is also..."

Wells snorted coldly: "Pablo, it would be nice if the newspaper did not hold you accountable if you made such a big mistake! What else do you want?"

Wells then turned cold and said, "You think clearly whether to quit with decent voluntary action or ask the newspaper to fire you! If you quit voluntarily, we will not mention the fact that you spend money to hiring people to make fake news when we issue a statement, so you will have the chance to find a job in other media. If the newspaper is fired, we would rather make the newspaper lose more reputation than reveal the truth. At that time, you will really lose your job!"

Pablo couldn't help but feel trembling when he heard this. He knew that the initiative was in the hands of Wells.

If you don't accept it, once the Daily Sports News turns against him, it will be a mess.

Wells stared at Pablo's eyes and asked, "Pablo, there is not much time left. Now the Daily Sports News is under tremendous public pressure every second. We cannot keep silent! You choose! Either we will put the blame on Meyers according to the previous caliber, and you resigned because of serious mistakes in your work; or we will tell the truth and admit to the public that you have spent money to fabricate fake news without hiding the newspaper. You will also have to get out of the newspaper, and your career will also end! I advise you to choose the first option, which is good for everyone!"

After some struggle, Pablo finally said in frustration: "Okay...I choose the first option..."

He did not mention compensation for resignation. Since he voluntarily resigned and had caused such a big trouble to the newspaper, he was already kind and was hoping to compensate him if he didn't hold him accountable. He was still hoping to compensate him? Dreaming! As long as the newspaper did not expose this matter during background investigation when applying for other media in the future, it would be a burning fragrance.

Of course, the Daily Sports News will most likely not break this matter when it comes to the back of the tune, because it is not in their interests.

Wells nodded and said, "Very good! I hope to see your resignation letter in ten minutes! Go!"
Chapter completed!
