lip gun

The mouthpiece of the masses, the mirror of the government.

This is a motto given by a leader to the vast number of TV media people. It is true and sincere, but in Xing Ming's view, TV media people are actually a particularly pious group of people.

Xing Ming looks at this circle a little pessimistically, but he is full of confidence in his team. In order to squeeze out Zhuang Lei's people, Xing Ming carefully selected his own team. Many people in the group were discovered by him. Half a year's friendship with the promoted person is not long, but I have to say that although Xing Ming is almost harsh at work, he has always been a good leader.He is not greedy for merit, and he does not hesitate to pay bonuses. "Pearl Connection" has been commended several times. As the nominal host and the actual chief producer, Xing Ming will surely lead the way if one person succeeds, making the whole team famous. The map is profitable.

The most righteous one was when he was attacked by local mobs during an interview in Manila.In fact, the sharp knife in the mob's hand was not aimed at him. Seeing that the director who came with the team had no response, Xing Ming pushed him away in desperation, but he was stabbed himself.

At that time, Xing Ming was clutching his bleeding wound, and his mood was fairly stable, but the director was crying, wishing he could pay for it with his life on the spot.

Staying up all night together, playing life together, is like rolling in a latrine or squatting in a trench. The so-called revolutionary friendship is nothing more than mediocre.

That's why he dared to speak in front of Yu Zhongye, saying that his team would build it himself.

But Xing Ming also has a problem. He works so selfishly that he often can’t remember the names of his subordinates. He only calls them by their respective positions. The editor is called "editor" and the director is called "director". Pragmatic and efficient, but actually lazy.

Xing Ming ordered Ruan Ning to arrange a weekend treat early in the morning. He planned to get in touch with the team members and prepare a new program in advance.

Ruan Ning asked one by one, confirmed that everyone in the group was free on Saturday, and then went to China World Trade Center to book a restaurant.One of the best high-rise buildings in Asia, the revolving restaurant on the 88th floor, hundreds of seafood buffets, most of the waiters in the restaurant are foreigners, and they don't speak English.

The appointment time was 11:30, but Xing Ming arrived earlier.He stood by the window alone, looking into the distance.Looking out from the floor he was on, the city under his feet suddenly changed beyond recognition. It became very narrow, flat, and small. Cars and people were like ants, and the river running through the whole city was like a gray river. ribbon.

Just after eleven o'clock, Ruan Ning was the first to show up.There has never been a secret overnight in the Pearl Tower, and the scene in the director's office has long been known to everyone, so Ruan Ning is a little scared to see the punishment, fearing that if he is not careful, he will become the leader's punching bag.Fortunately, although the wound on Xing Ming's chin hadn't healed, he was in a good mood, and chatted with him for a while, with a smile on his face.

At 11:30, the waiter brought free mango juice and appetizers, and asked Xing Ming when he would arrive.After waiting for half an hour, Xing Ming lost his patience and ordered Ruan Ning to call to remind him.

Ruan Ning dialed a number obediently, and hung up after talking a few words after connecting.He turned to Xing Ming and said, "Sun Wei's daughter has gastroenteritis, so she can't come."

Xing Ming frowned: "Sun Wei? Who is Sun Wei?"

Ruan Ning knew that Xing Ming couldn't remember people's names, so he thought of a way to explain to him: "It's the director of our group, that tall black skinned, four-eyed, last time I went to Manila for an interview with you, and you blocked him for him. One knife..."

"Oh, him." As soon as Xing Ming said it was the director, a concrete face appeared in front of Xing Ming's eyes, but he still frowned and asked suspiciously, "He already has a daughter? When did he get married?" marriage?"

Ruan Ning scratched her head and smirked: "You are married with a son, you didn't even approve her marriage leave."

At twelve o'clock, the waiter came to ask again, but still no one in the group came.

Seeing that the team members had been waiting for a long time, Xing Ming asked Ruan Ning to call others again, but this time Ruan Ning refused. He lowered his head and said don't wait. I don't think those people will come. Get back now.He hesitated and didn't understand.

Xing Ming shook his head and said, I'll wait.

"Boss, I really won't come anymore, and I won't come alone." Like a student who made a mistake, Ruan Ning buried his head lower and lower, and his voice became softer. He said, "Old Chen is also today. Treating guests, Lao Chen said that "If You Love Beauty" is building a team, Sun Wei and the others are the backbone of the station, the new program must be them..."

Xing Ming frowned slightly, and interrupted him: "Where is the man?"

"Also... also here." Ruan Ning's voice was inaudible, "It's on the 86th floor, Yuezhixuan..."

Xing Ming glanced at Ruan Ning, grabbed his cell phone, and dialed the number just now.

"Boss..." Ruan Ning continued to squeak, but saw Xing Ming turn his head, stretched out an index finger and pointed at him, warning him to shut up.

The bell rang several times, and Sun Wei finally answered the phone.After hearing the voice of Xing Ming, he hurriedly apologized, he said, Boss, you see this is not a coincidence, early this morning my daughter suddenly started vomiting milk and diarrhea, and I am still in the hospital with my wife right now.

"Really, is it serious? Do you want to take two days off?" Xing Ming remained calm. He had already reached the 86th floor, and he signaled Ruan Ning to lead the way with his eyes, and followed him into Yuezhixuan.

"It's probably gastroenteritis. The child is too young. If the mother doesn't pay attention, I'll take a look at it—" The words came to an abrupt end, and Sun Wei raised his face in horror, looking at the man standing at the door of the private room.

Xing Ming was expressionless, looking at Sun Wei and everyone.

"You..." The words were stuck for a minute, Xing Ming was about to vent his stomachache, but in the end he only said, "You... are fine."

The person who spoke was very calm, but the person who listened became uncomfortable.It turned out that the bustling wine table was silent for a while, these people are the elites in the group, in Xing Ming's own words, they all have a life-threatening friendship with him.

"Hey, isn't this Xiao Xing?" Lao Chen, who was sitting in the middle, was not surprised at all, and yelled Xing Ming with a smile.

Everyone knows about the broadcast director, video camera, and music editor, including Ruan Ning, the most indispensable intern assistant in the entire news commentary department. Only one person is kept in the dark.This is where Lao Chen's loss is. He deliberately chose the same place to treat guests, but he didn't let the people in Xingming's team reveal any information.

Ruan Ningsheng was afraid that Xing Ming would cause some trouble again, so he quickly pulled him away and called him timidly, "Boss."

Xing Ming pushed Ruan Ning away, walked to the front of the round table, took an empty cup that no one had used, unscrewed a bottle of Wuliangye, and poured a full cup for himself, a total of three taels.

"The first glass is the thank-you wine." Xing Ming glanced at Sun Wei, and held the wine glass in his hand, "I think I switched careers to Pearl Terrace a year and a half ago. I'll drink this cup first as a respect, and you can do whatever you want." After speaking, he raised his head and drank it down.

Sun Wei blushed, and there was a murmur in his throat, but he didn't dare to say anything because of Lao Chen's presence.

Xing Ming poured a second cup for himself, held it in his hand, and said with a smile: "The second cup is apology wine. I am quick-tempered and have a bad temper. I often bump into everyone for the show. Fortunately, you are magnanimous. , tolerated me for so long - I'll drink this cup, you can do whatever you want." After speaking, he raised his head and drank another cup, flipped the cup upside down with his hands, and it was empty.

Everyone looked at him like a ghost.

"The third glass is San Huo wine. It's normal for people to go to high places." After the third glass of wine was poured, the [-]-milliliter bottle of Wuliangye had almost bottomed out. Xing Ming raised his eyes and glanced at the crowd. Wake up, get together and leave, and I wish you all a bright future."

A dozen or so people looked at each other in blank dismay, neither should nor should not.

Seeing everyone froze, Xing Ming's face turned cold: "I said, come together."

A table of people were forced to drink this cup, while Lao Chen was still watching with a smile on his face.

Xing Ming drank the third cup of Wuliangye, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and took one last look at everyone with a very calm and unwavering look - this look was extraordinarily long, Sun Wei blushed with shame, and Ruan Ning sweated nervously , only Lao Chen held the winning ticket in his hand, calm and relaxed.

Finally, Xing Ming turned around and left.He strode forward without looking back, passing a large floor-standing vase with enamel and color, and kicked it to the ground as soon as he lifted his foot.

The vase shattered with a bang, and the waiter heard the sound. Xing Ming didn't even look at her, and just pointed at Lao Chen's table behind him with his thumb: "It will be credited to that table."

Ruan Ning followed Xing Ming out of Yuezhixuan, chasing after him all the time, calling him, boss.

Xing Ming didn't look back, and only gave one word, get out.

"Boss," Ruan Ning persistently chased and shouted, "Don't blame Sun Wei and the others. No one dares not to go because of Lao Chen's lustful prestige."

Xing Ming turned his face, looked at Ruan Ning coldly and quietly, and asked him, "Why don't you go?"

Ruan Ning smiled flatteringly and shyly, and stretched out his hand to hold Xingming's arm: "I was born as the boss, and I will die as the boss' ghost—"

Xing Ming pushed him away rudely: "I want to listen to the truth."

Ruan Ning scratched his scalp, stared straight into Xing Ming's eyes, and finally revealed the truth after a while: "I want to go, but there is no shortage of assistants there."

"Well, that's right." Xing Ming was not angry, but nodded with satisfaction, and raised his hand to beckon Ruan Ning, "Come here, let's have another drink."

Xing Ming dragged Ruan Ning to drink a few more drinks at the pub on the ground floor of Guomao. Ruan Ning originally invited his girlfriend to watch a movie at night, but the movie was about to start, but he couldn't get away.Xing Ming was his immediate boss, and his immediate boss wanted to drink, but he neither dared nor could stop him, so he hesitated, Xing Ming had already drank a whole bottle.

"Boss, it's not worth being sulking about those grandchildren, bah! All of them value profits over righteousness, and a mere old Chen has taken away their souls..."

Before I had had enough of the wine, someone came over to make friends and asked, is it Xing Ming from "Pearl Connection"?

Xing Ming lay on the bar counter, buried his face in his elbows, pretending that he had drunk too much.

He can drink enough, and can't keep down a few cups of yellow soup, but his stomach has always been weak.This depends on his eating habits. He is the type who does not eat when he is desperate. He often eats three meals and fills himself up at will.At this moment, white wine and foreign wine were mixed together in the stomach, and the whole body was on fire.

Xing Ming kept his head lowered, hiding his fairly well-known face in the crook of his elbow.He knew how bad he looked at the moment, and he couldn't afford to lose this person.

The visitor pestered him for a while, but he left without getting a satisfactory answer.Just as Ruan Ning let out a breath, he saw another person from a long distance——Yu Zhongye happened to be talking about things at China World Trade Center, and he seemed to have seen him too.

"Uncle Yu!" Seeing Yu Zhongye walking towards his direction, Ruan Ning stood upright, respectful.Ruan Ning was two years younger than Xing Ming, so he naturally called Yu Zhongye "Uncle Yu" with some young people in Taiwan on weekdays, and he was basically never answered. He expected that Yu Zhongye would not recognize him, so he quickly introduced himself: "Uncle Yu, I'm from the news commentary department—"

"You are Xing Ming's assistant, Ruan Ning." Yu Zhongye said Ruan Ning's name.

Being named by the director is no less than being honored by the emperor. Ruan Ning was flattered, stammered, and pointed to Xing Ming who was lying on the table: "Yu, Uncle Yu... Boss, he drank too much. Can't wake up..."

Yu Zhongye interrupted Ruan Ning: "It's none of your business here."

Ruan Ning left with a sigh of relief, and hurriedly hung up the phone to his girlfriend before stepping out of the pub door. Xing Ming was still half-drunk lying on the bar counter, covering his stomach with his hands, and curled up into a ball.He suddenly smelled a perfume mixed with tobacco, and then felt a palm pressing the top of his head.

That hand was surprisingly gentle and considerate. After staying for a moment, the slender fingers inserted into his hair and rubbed it.
