"Actually, there's nothing to say. It's just a very common reason. I had just been promoted at the time and had to recruit someone to fill my position." Stella held her cheek with one hand and looked out the window, "It's exactly what you said, "Unyielding News" is a big newspaper. The most important thing is outstanding young people. There are so many resumes that I am dazzled to choose from.
"In the future, I tend to keep two girls with more internship experience first, let them work together for a month, and then see who is suitable to be retained in the end. Not long after the work order was submitted, the human resources department told me that it was better to retain A boy. I asked why. Obviously the resumes and interview results of these two people were the best among this batch of candidates. They answered that under the same conditions, boys are usually chosen, unless the girls are so outstanding in business abilities that they far exceed the others. Only a long time will be considered, these two girls are not qualified enough.
"I remember they told me at the time, 'Don't overthink it, and don't get into trouble. This industry is inherently hard and not suitable for women.'"
Chiba closed his eyes and lay on the car seat, "Well...it means you were really good at the beginning."
"Is there anything to be happy about?" Stella opened her eyes wide, "And doesn't this mean that I actually lost money when I entered "Indomitable News"? I was still not confident enough when I just graduated, otherwise I should try Those who tried to stay in the core city - there is no chance now.
"After leaving "Indomitable Daily", I also visited several major newspapers, but I also changed the soup without changing the medicine... I have seen many people who don't memorize their stories well enough, and can't talk about anything during interviews. He was very angry at me and said, 'You female reporters are better, you can tell me whatever you ask me.'"
"So you came out to work alone?" Si Lei asked.
"Yes, I have run several newspapers before. At first, I took the route of in-depth current reviews, but the sales were too low, so I stopped after a few issues." Stella held up her face, "Is everyone working hard? It's time to get off work. Everyone wants to watch something light-hearted, but who wants to continue to think about issues of great suffering and hatred, so the idea of making "Anecdotes" is to pursue hot topics, and then add some daily divination and chicken soup stories, giving up some depth. Requirements… So far, the results look pretty good.”
"Is it so easy to get the issue number?"
"We don't have an issue number." Stella replied.
Si Lei raised his eyes sharply and glanced at the rearview mirror. This glance made Stella's neck shiver. She quickly said: "Don't get me wrong, officer, we are completely a legal enterprise that pays taxes honestly. We will report every issue of the newspaper." Glue a painting card in the middle – we actually sell painting cards, the newspaper is just a bonus that comes with the card.”
Si Lei laughed and turned the steering wheel without saying a word, "Is it harder or easier to be your own boss?"
"Yeah, look." Stella raised her hand to lift the beret on top of her head, revealing a too clear middle line, "I feel like I may not have lost as much hair in the twenty-six years of my life." Over the past two years...but the advantage of recruiting people by myself is that I don't have to pay attention to the bullshit logic in some circles."
Stella readjusted the position of her hat, "For example, since everyone agrees that female candidates in the industry can only stand in the same position as male candidates if their abilities are far superior to others, then in terms of resume When the gap is not big, women should actually be given priority, right? Because in this way, you can actually buy better labor force at the same price——"
Qianye and Si Lei laughed out loud at the same time, "You discovered the truth!"
The three of them gradually chatted in the car, and Stella took the opportunity to invite Chiba and Si Lei to participate in a new activity that "Anecdote Express" will start next week - predicting the eight awards of this year's "Ava Morgan Awards" Who will be the winner?
This year the newspaper has secured a very generous event sponsorship. As long as someone guesses two items at the same time, he or she can directly receive a bonus of two thousand robi. If someone guesses all eight items, a cash prize of 100,000 robi will be directly awarded.
Although Qianye and Si Lei politely expressed their interest in this matter, both of them refused the interview invitation - they both knew that Stella was looking for celebrities to participate in the early stage of the campaign, but with the two of them now With my status, it is not convenient for me to get involved in such activities.
"You can create an account online," Si Lei said. "The name is 'Have the Morgan Awards been awarded this year?', and then directly write down the rules of your activities-"
"Several other major newspapers we are co-organized with will do this, but we will not, and we will never open an online account."
"Why?"
"All information in the digital world can be easily tampered with." Stella replied with a smile, "Truth is fickle, but our lies will last longer than them."
Soon, Si Lei's car drove to the entrance of an alley. Qianye and Stella got out of the car at the same time, and they stood there and watched Si Lei go away.
"Thank you, help me hold this thread." Stella looked at Qianye, "I think she is quite nice, not as rigid as you said."
Chiba also looked away, and the two of them walked into the alley at the same time. She looked at Stella, "What are you going to do with that notebook?"
"Burn it. Burn it tonight."
"Don't worry anymore?"
"These things have weighed on me for four years, and I have tried my best." Stella raised her head and breathed a long sigh of relief, "From today on, this suffering will belong to Officer Si Lei."
"It's rare for you to be so sincerely worried about other people... Don't get me wrong, this sentence is not derogatory."
Stella glanced at Chiba, but she quickly let go, "I know you have never felt much about these news, but it is not impossible for you to truly understand my feelings - Chiba, have you ever thought about you It’s very possible that Hesta would have become one of the girls ravaged by Rishi?”
"...What are you talking about?"
"Isn't it true? She has no parents. Before you rescued her, she had been living with two nuns in the convent. She is just like the other girls selected by Li Xi, who are thin and thin. You should be glad that Li Xi never went there in person because of the distance. Pass St. Anne's Abbey, otherwise how can you know what little Hesta's fate will be today?"
"Haha, I don't like to talk about these illusory 'what ifs'——"
"I know!" Stella took a few steps closer and interrupted Qianye, "I just want to tell you, even if it doesn't happen to you and the people around you for the time being, don't feel that all this is far away from you. ——”
"Don't say these useless things," Chiba raised his arms and crossed his hands behind his head, "I helped you today, let's talk about repaying it."
"You said," Stella smiled, "I will try my best if I can."
"I haven't thought about it yet, but if necessary, I want you to make the entire front page of "Anecdote Express"."
——
Notice of leave:
I may take 5 days off from the 25th to the 29th at the end of this month because I may go out for fun. I say "maybe" because I don't know if France will lock down the city again before that day... (´-ω-`) Well, let me wish you all a happy New Year in advance!
