"The media has always been called the Uncrowned King, known as the soundtrack of the truth and the nemesis of the dark side. To a certain extent, it balances the imbalance of information resources and weakly enhances the right to know of ordinary people. This is the value of their existence.

However, like public opinion, the media is the easiest to be manipulated and exploited. If the support rate of netizens reaches the ninth level, they will reach the ninth level. If more than half of netizens express their opposition, there will be netizens on the sixth level that will object.

In an era when the bloodline level gradually faded, money and power re-established the class, and the people at the top of the Golden Tower then mastered the ability to change the wind direction."

...

The above passage is excerpted from Han Shuo's essay "Where the Wind Blows". As a successful genius writer, like Xue Muliang, he has rich experience in dealing with the media, so he naturally understands the fun and characteristics of this double-edged sword.

When Han Shuo wrote this article two years ago, he would definitely not have thought that two years later, his colleague or junior brother, Liu Jingting, unfortunately personally verified his point of view.

"Martial arts novels promote violence and fists, and provide extremely bad value guidance on underage primary and secondary school students, causing frequent incidents of students fighting against teachers and young people fighting in groups."

"Writers should follow the minimum moral bottom line when writing, maintain sufficient respect for historical traditions, distort history at will, challenge historical facts, and regard serious historical records as nothing, which will cause immeasurable damage to young people's historical view."

"A hundred years ago, the national hero Lin Zexu fought an Opium War. According to the incident of students beating teachers, another kind of opium quietly spread. This kind of opium is called spiritual opium, also known as martial arts novels."

...

"This group of people cannot make any contribution to the progress of literature and art. When it comes to how to hinder the development of literature and art, they are full of tricks and frequent methods. They are really shameless scum, and they are so stupid. I think they are filled with opium scum in their minds."

Facing the overwhelming condemnation of Gu Yongsheng and his novels, Lu Yichou lost the demeanor of a literary businessman for the first time, and cursed. The company's deputy general manager Hou Lei, public relations manager Hong Ming, and book editor Wei Wuzhi sat quietly aside, with a heavy face and no words.

Splashing dirty water is never new among colleagues, but splashing dirty water to such a high-sounding sound makes people feel ashamed of being angry.

"It's obvious that someone is taking the opportunity to make trouble. With the popularity of "The Grass on the Earth" and the resurgence of "The Great Rivers and the Lake of the World", some people must be jealous." Public relations manager Hong Ming analyzed.

"What is the news about middle school teachers? In other words, shouldn't some well-dressed teachers be beaten now?" The vice president and President Lu were angry, and the rhythm of anger was naturally the same. "Isn't it too naive to use this to mess with us?"

"The simpler the method is, the more effective it is," said Editor-in-Chief Wei, who has been silent. "If it is just a stupid trick of a peer who is angry and just wants to make a sound, then that's easy. But I see that the media's unified caliber this time, the people who cause trouble are quite good."

Any of the four middle-aged men here can be called an old demon in the workplace. Adding together, the wisdom is extraordinary.

"This is giving me multiple-choice questions." Lu Yichou got angry and calm down. "If I guess correctly, in the past two days, a certain department will send a notice. Han Shuo's magazine or Gu Yongsheng will definitely deal with one."

"Someone wants to poach people?" Hou Lei said in surprise.

Lu Yichou nodded.

“Which company is it?”

Lu Yichou said disdainfully: "There are no three people in the industry who can make such a plan. Humph, who can dare to attack me?"

"Yellow River Literature and Art!" the other three said in unison.

"According to their thinking logic, I must protect Han Shuo, so their goal is Gu Yongsheng."

"If you say this, we cannot let others go." Wei Wuzhi said angrily.

"Of course," Lu Yicong frowned and pondered, "but "Seven Swords" may have to be suspended for a few episodes. Well, they will definitely take advantage of this time to meet Gu Yongsheng, and they are the best at provoking and seducing things."

"So, the key to this matter lies in Gu Yongsheng's attitude, but..." Hong Ming hesitated: "Gu Yongsheng is still so young."

"They have the best-selling youth magazine "Ding Novel" as a platform, they have a huge author service team, and most importantly, they have the strongest backend." Vice President Hou said objectively.

"Oh?" Lu Yicong's tone couldn't hide his mockery, "We can destroy their platform soon. We will have a more professional and humane author service team. Well, the last item will be considered to be their win."

"At present, the last item is the most deadly." Editor-in-Chief Wei hit the nail on the head.

"I will do the work of appeaseing Gu Yongsheng himself. The public relations department can move. Contact our media friends and start fighting back. The fight back is divided into two directions. One is to point out the generality of middle school students' fights, which has no relationship with whether they read books or not. You can even find several examples to prove that many people's writing skills have significantly improved after reading Gu Yongsheng's martial arts novels. The other is that we will also talk about the value orientation of their Xue Muliang's novels. His book "Sad Forest" has a lot of things worth talking about."

...

When the two giants in the publishing industry were fighting, Liu Jingting, who once again became the person involved, had no idea about this. He and a group of friends rode bicycles along the straight road to the north, where there was a small river that had not been completely polluted. Every summer, people in the town would swim in groups.

Until the evening, everyone was riding their bicycles and returning home from the river. Along the way, my friends competed with speed and big scattered hands (when riding a bicycle, they didn’t grab the handlebars with both hands).

Zhang Ailing once said that the cutest moment in life is the one who lets go.

Not to discuss the loneliness and calmness of female writers who "become famous as soon as possible" when they say this, but to only talk about riding with an empty hand is really one of the most brilliant memories of every boy in his youth.

On the way home, Liu Jingting met his father who came to find him. His father was very happy and was carrying a large bag of grapes in his hand. Liu Jingting got off the bus first, and the other children got off and greeted Liu's father.

Dad Liu was happily distributing grapes. Liu Jingting was a little surprised, but after he calculated it briefly, he finally remembered that today was the day when the scores were obtained in the middle school entrance examination. Before he could ask, another child said first: "Uncle Second is so happy, is it because my brother Ting's scores in the middle school entrance examination?"

Dad Liu smiled even happier and said, "Come out, 632 points, the first place in the town, haha..."

Liu Jingting thought to himself: "If it weren't for the exam, I controlled it for a while, and there was only this score." At this time, I naturally had to be happy and couldn't help but say, "I can finally get my wish to go to Yuehe No. 1 Middle School."

...

The news that Liu Jingting's first place in the middle school entrance examination was soon spread in the town. Relatives and neighbors who came to congratulate him one after another, because according to legend, entering Yuehe No. 1 Middle School is equivalent to stepping into a prestigious university with one foot.

Liu Jingting took the time to tell Mi Hu the news, and said half-truely: "I can finally have a serious campus love affair."

Mihu poured cold water back: "I'm about to take the college entrance examination, how can I be serious?"

Liu Jingting returned: "That's not serious..."

Mihu replied with a "beating" expression and then added: "You will have a few days left to celebrate your birthday, how do you plan to celebrate?"

To a certain extent, Mi Hu was particularly happy that Liu Jingting would enter high school soon and grow one year older, or was curious whether such a monster would become a spirit after growing up, or because of other strange psychology.

Liu Jingting thought for a while and replied, "Then buy a pair of flower pants."

Mihu: "…"

In fact, Mi Hu wanted to ask Liu Jingting how he was going to deal with this crisis, but when he heard the other party's tone, he seemed to care about this matter at all. Because he had the last experience, Mi Hu didn't want to worry about it, so she didn't mention a word. However, based on her experience as an editor, it was impossible for Liu Jingting to "hehe" to deal with the problems he faced this time.

...

The next day after knowing the score, Liu Jingting received a call from Lu Yichou, saying that he was asking him to meet. Not long after hanging up the phone, a strange young man suddenly came to his house.

"Is this the home of Gu Yongsheng?"

Liu Jingting looked at the young man and replied, "I am, you are..."

"Hello, my name is Xu Xiaozhong, the operation director of "Ding Novels", this is my business card." The young man politely handed over a business card.

Liu Jingting quickly reviewed his connection with "Ding Novel" in his mind, and then he thought of Beihetang and then to Kuang Heng. That's right. The manuscript he sent to "The Great Jianghu" was the address of his home. Since Kuang Heng expressed his appreciation for himself, he would naturally pay attention to this.

""Ding Novel"? Well, so Director Xu, you came to me for..."

"Talking about cooperation." Xu Xiaozhong looked white and dressed very well. He spoke softly, but showed a particularly clear idea.

"I'm working with Qianhong now, you should know this too."

Xu Xiaozhong looked at Liu Jingting in surprise and said, "Don't you pay attention to your own news?"

"Follow me, I just knew my high school entrance examination scores, the best in the town."

"No, that, I mean the news of your novel." Xu Xiaozhong looked at the young man in front of him, and his head was covered in black.

Liu Jingting remembered the phone call from Lu Yichou just now and thought to himself: "Did Qianhong unilaterally announce the termination of the contract with me?"

"I might have to check the situation online first."

Xu Xiaozhong hurriedly said, "No, I can explain the situation to you while chatting."

Only then did Liu Jingting realize that he had not invited the guest to sit down.
