You get married, I hijack the marriage

Chapter 36 What's the Difference Between Paparazzi and Others?

Editor-in-Chief's Office.

Editor Zhou tilted the computer and pointed at the person in the photo: "This is Mayor He. He is about to be promoted to a senior official. So far, he has not responded to the rumors. If we can interview him, the sales of this issue of the magazine will definitely have a big breakthrough."

In front of the desk, Shen Youran and her colleague Qiu Shaoze stood side by side, and they both glanced at the photos on the computer.

Qiu Shaoze scratched his head and said, "Editor-in-chief, you are not asking us to interview him?"

Editor Zhou nodded: "Yes, it's you two."

Shen Youran was in a dilemma. She was in the editing department, not the interview department. It would be extremely difficult for her, who had no experience and no connections, to interview the mayor. She might not even be able to meet the mayor.

She and Qiu Shaoze looked at each other, and both saw the difficulty of the task in each other's eyes.

Qiu Shaoze worriedly asked, "What if Mayor He doesn't want to see us?"

Mayor He seldom gives interviews, and has given very few interviews since he took office.

People in politics are extremely cautious. The higher the camera they appear, the more they will be exposed to the public. If they are caught with evidence, they will be dismissed at best, or face jail time at worst.

Editor-in-Chief Zhou suggested: “So you have to go and squat.”

They are not paparazzi!
Both of them had distressed faces.

Editor Zhou looked at their depressed faces and sighed helplessly: "As you know, our magazine has been in a downturn recently. The number of best-sellers last month was only half of the month before last. If it continues like this, the magazine will have to close by the end of the year."

Shen Youran and Qiu Shaoze walked out of the editor-in-chief's office with sad faces. The two of them huddled together and stared at each other, worrying about how to approach He Zimin and get him to agree to be interviewed.

The two first investigated He Zimin's daily schedule. After two days of investigation, Qiu Shaoze made a schedule for He Zimin's schedule for the past half month.

Shen Youran took the printed schedule and looked at it for a long time, with a bitter face. He Zimin's schedule was almost irregular, and there was no chance to stay at the site. If he went directly to interview him, he would definitely be kicked out.

She thought of He Zimin's son He Jiashan, and wondered if she could find a breakthrough from him, but when she thought of He Jiashan's ruffian look, she felt uncomfortable all over.

When it was time to get off work, everyone had left, but she and Qiu Shaoze were still in the office, holding two large schedules, at a loss as to what to do.

She asked, "How did those business elites you interviewed do in the past?"

Qiu Shaoze stretched his legs and leaned back on the chair, looking up at the ceiling, with a look of despair: "It's not that troublesome anyway."

ME magazine is a financial magazine that is relatively well-known in City A. Some people in the business community do not deliberately make things difficult for us and are quite willing to cooperate.

Shen Youran thought for a moment and said, "Mayor He has a son named He Jiashan. Maybe he can give us some information."

Qiu Shaoze slapped his thigh and sat up suddenly: "Yes, if I can't do it, I'll start with my son. I heard that He Jiashan likes to play with women. I don't believe we can't find Mayor He's whereabouts if we find 17 or 18 women in the nightclub."

This trick was really mean, but when used on He Jiashan, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"But..." He scratched his hair, his tone slowed down and a little conflicted.

Seeing his distressed face, Shen Youran asked, "But what?"

“I don’t know if the magazine will reimburse the expenses.”

Shen Youran: “…”
