"Why?" Pipi asked. "Is it Qian Zhongshu?" As far as she knew, there was always gossip surrounding celebrities and internet fans loved to spread rumours about him.
"It's not Qian Zhongshu, but the status of the cultural relic of his teacher is about the same as the work of Qian Zhongshu. He was called 'The Jade Scholar'. Since Song Yu's death, this person has been considered a rookie on the rise in the world of jade. To some extent, he holds as much authority as Song did.
"Cultural relics...?" This was not Pipi's area of expertise.
"His name is He Lanjing. He's an expert on ancient jade, a connoisseur, and a collector. He has only one simple title: Senior Consultant of C City Museum."
Pipi laughed: "The C City Museum is not nearby. I'll pretend to visit and get a picture of him."
"Pipi, it is illegal to publish any photos without his consent. I still remember that there was a very popular Bengbu Business Daily article six months ago. Just because the reporter had a silhouette photo of He Lanjing, he was taken to court. When he arrived at the court, he invited the best lawyers in the country to fight on his behalf, but they were attacked and beaten, and the newspaper was ruined and almost closed down. If you dare to interview such a person, you have to be brave."
"So, I'll let you go. Your mission is small. Just sneak into the crowd and secretly observe him. Secondly, you could try to get close to him and soften him, then I'll think of the next move. Ugh, what about my pregnancy? Seriously, I throw up every day and I can't run anywhere. This report will be jointly written and submitted to the 'Top Ten Cultural Good News' competition this year. If you win, you can talk to the president and get him to transfer you to the weekend or entertainment section, and then you'll be a real reporter!"
Pipi could barely contain herself. "Is that true? Could I really become a reporter?"
As the saying goes, the devil is in the details. Pipi may have been the secretary of the news unit, but although her title contained the word 'news', the nature of her work was far from that of the reporters.
"How could it not be? He would have no reason to refuse. What's more, aren't you currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in journalism? With that kind of qualification, of course you'll have a chance. Now, take my camera. Look, this is Nikon's Professional camera. The lens alone was tens of thousands of dollars, so you'd better look after it! I'll go and find Du Wenguang and get him to give you an internship card. I'll tell him I'm in poor health and need you to help me in your spare time. He'll definitely be okay with it. If you can't, I'll get one of the other secretaries to help me."
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
"Well, check the info over first. It's all there. Ugh... are you wearing perfume? I think I'm going to hurl. It's been three months and I'm still vomiting every day! When will it end!?" Wei Qingtan slammed a hand over her mouth and rushed out of the room.
