"Did you get it?"
At the corner of the street, a man with glasses and a top hat on his head furtively retracted his neck and nodded to his accomplice who asked him a question.
"Finally I caught some big news!" The friend excitedly took the camera from the other person's hand and turned it over and over with admiration.
The cameras of this era are still film-based, so we still have to go back and develop them to know how good the shooting will be.
So the two people sneaked back to their car, and only after they were seated securely did they start to take off their disguises.
This damn thing is the Embassy of the Tang Empire in the Lions Empire! If you randomly pick up a camera and take pictures within a few hundred meters, you might really lose your life.
However, they still have confidence in their hearts, because they are not here to bring bad luck to the Tang Empire. With their little courage, they really didn't dare to disobey the behemoth that had expanded to a size that they couldn't even imagine.
It is no exaggeration at all. How many of the newspapers and radio stations in the Lions empire are secretly held by people from the Tang Group, and how many are controlled by the Cyric Consortium?
In this environment, if you want to expose a piece of dirty information about the Tang Empire, why don't you light a lantern in the toilet and look for shit?
Therefore, they are those who eat news and are not very interested in news about the Tang Empire, because in most cases, such news is sent to newspapers through special channels for distribution.
In other words, these low-end minions are not qualified to dig up news about the Tang Empire. What can and cannot be said is all controlled by the people above.
They came this time because they discovered "dirty information" about the Mirage Kingdom! Some people said they saw goblins getting out of cars and entering the embassy of the Tang Empire. The two reporters who were drinking in the bar felt that they, the "blind monks," had discovered "Hua Dian."
It seems that Mirage wants to make peace! This is big news! If this were revealed, wouldn't it be big news?
How many stock securities will rise or fall sharply at that time? How many businessmen have to make money and lose money? How much accolades will the two of them receive? Will he become a famous journalist?
A road to fortune is right in front of you! It was impossible for the two of them not to be excited. The two people who took off their disguises quickly started the car and drove all the way back to the newspaper office.
The two people came to the darkroom holding the camera as if they were holding their own cornucopia. Then, fearing that others would damage the film, they went in and developed the film themselves.
After developing the photos, they carefully checked the angles. Everything was so perfect that they both almost cried with joy.
In the photo, several goblins got out of a black car, and then, led by the guards of the Tang Empire's embassy, walked into the Datang Empire's Embassy in Lanes...
The faces of these goblins can all be recognized. They include the Mirage ambassador to the Lions Empire, the ambassador's adjutant, the military attache, and some other personnel.
With so many people coming to the embassy of the Tang Empire, they are definitely not here for a party or dinner, right? They could just write in the newspaper: The goblins suspected of being a mirage are ready to surrender.
As long as you don't say it to death, there can be an element of speculation. As long as they see the newspaper, all their dreams can come true.
"Done?" A reporter looked at the photo in his hand excitedly. He felt that a blond beauty was waving to him with a suitcase of money.
Another reporter was even more happy. He felt that he had become prosperous in his life. With such breaking news, he would be the number one reporter in the newspaper in the future, and no one could boss him around anymore!
"It's done!" He nodded, and then handed some of the photos to his colleagues: "We will be prosperous from now on! Hehehehehe."
They were very excited and walked into the newspaper editor's office with photos and written materials they had written two days ago.
They have been following this news for several days and have taken many photos, all of which are very clear.
Spreading the photos on the table, the two people talked endlessly about how they followed the goblins, and emphasized that they had been following these goblins for several days, and that the other party would appear at the Ambassador of the Tang Empire to the Lions Empire almost every day. near the museum.
The editor-in-chief swallowed involuntarily when he saw the familiar... embassy door that made him feel a little frightened.
These two men were so brave that they dared to go to this place and take out their cameras. This is no different than pulling out a pistol, right?
He thought in his mind, and then looked down at these photos: Is the Tang Empire really negotiating with the goblins? If this kind of thing is revealed, whether it is the orcs, goblins, or other countries, it seems that there will be a storm, right?
He raised his head and glanced at his two subordinates. He showed a warm smile that he had never seen before: "Thank you for your hard work! This is indeed big news! I admire your work ability very much, and I feel very proud of you two." Kudos to you for your keen insight! You are the pride of The Lanes Poll!”
He hooked the two people's shoulders and sent them to the door: "I will arrange the best page for this news! Trust me! This will be the biggest news this month."
The editor-in-chief's words made the two reporters ecstatic, but what they said next made them even happier: "I will explain the situation to the financial officer. You can go to the accountant later. Trust me, there will definitely be a surprise."
After saying that, the editor closed the door, walked back to the desk, and looked down at the photos spread out on the table. He grabbed the phone receiver and dialed a number he had never dared to make.
This kind of direct-dial telephone has only just begun to become popular in the Lions Empire. The technology was spread by the Tang Empire. What the Lions Empire tried to buy cheaply was the "plagiarized" version of the Cyric Consortium...a win-win situation.
When someone over there answered the phone, he immediately said respectfully: "Mr. Xu, it's me, David, the editor-in-chief of Lanes Public Opinion. I have something to ask you for... Here's the thing... …”
"Okay, okay, I understand." After a period of silence, the newspaper editor nodded quickly, as if someone could see him nodding.
After hanging up the phone, he once again grabbed another internal phone and ordered vigorously: "Hello? It's me, taking charge of the accountant... I'm David, prepare for Bobby and Cork of the third group. A sum of money...3000...Yes, I'm talking about Tang Yuan!"
As he spoke, he twisted up the photos on the table one by one and threw them into his trash can.
One after another, one after another, and finally, he threw in the press release. After hanging up the phone, he picked up the trash can, walked out of the room, and handed it to his secretary: "Burn it immediately!"
The secretary nodded her head obligingly, swung her beautiful hips and walked towards the fireplace. After watching the woman burn the things to ashes, the newspaper editor went downstairs to find the two reporters who had just found out how much money he had.
"Film." He stretched out his hand, took the film from the hands of the two people, and then nodded to the two people: "I hope you are smart people and don't talk about anything about this matter. Tomorrow ...No matter what happens, keep your mouths shut, otherwise...I won’t be here to find you.”
After giving the warning, he turned around and left, leaving the two reporters who had just received a large sum of money looking at each other. They didn't know what was going on, and thought their superiors were reminding them to keep it secret until the news came out... until the next morning.
"Why?" A reporter flipped through the newspaper back and forth, as if he was looking for something. He turned faster and faster, and finally dropped the newspaper on the table.
Another reporter grabbed the newspaper and flipped through it, then frowned. Their story didn't appear in the next day's paper, where the biggest story was a scandal about a Lynes porn star.
Only then did they realize what their boss meant by what they said yesterday.
That money... is not a bonus for them, but... hush money! The photos and negatives they took... were all hidden by the snow and would never see the light of day again.
"This... this is unfair!" The young reporter who still hoped to become famous looked at his companion. He likes money, but he also likes the feeling of being taken seriously: "Let's follow those goblins again! We don't want our news here, let's submit it to another newspaper!"
"Are you crazy? Don't you know how much 3,000 gold coins are? This money is enough for us to live happily for ten years!" His companion knew why the other party was so generous. It's a friendly warning: If you don't want money, don't want your life.
That's Datang Group! If they go to the embassy gate of the Tang Empire again, there will probably be someone waiting for them.
In Lanes, just two people wouldn't cause much trouble, not even two nobles, let alone these two little people.
"Forget it!" He sighed and shook his head at his aggrieved companions: "They are being polite to us. If we don't learn to restrain ourselves, we will lose our lives to spend this money."
Upon hearing what he said, his companion also shuddered. After calming down, he also understood that the 3,000 gold coins were indeed too much, not the price of a piece of news.
He looked at the huge picture of the beautiful porn star posing on the table. For some people, there seems to be no secrets in the world; but for some people, there seem to be countless secrets under the world.
The secret approved by the Tang Empire is the secret...
