Chapter 969 No regrets

1days ago Science fiction 3
Now, Hope Media seems to be standing opposite to Wang in everyone's eyes, as if she is deliberately targeting Wang.

Although they themselves adhere to the principle of recording the truth, I hope the media has indeed reported too much negative news about Wang during this period.

Moreover, those articles caused a huge response in the entire society. It is said that even some different voices appeared within the Wang family. Many people sat quietly in front of the office of the Wang family consortium to protest Wang's disunity in the war.

At this time, Wang's team always stayed in Luocheng, hoping to meet Jiang Xu. Many reporters from other media also came here, hoping to take pictures of Jiang Xu's contact with Wang.

I hope the media has always been the leader in the media industry. Many media want to seize its handle and then push this behemoth in the industry from the altar.

In fact, as long as those media adhere to the principle of telling the truth and recording the truth like Hope Media, they can also rise rapidly in this era and gain the trust of the people.

But they finally chose to defeat Hope Media, a more rapid and effective way. As long as they can capture the scene of Jiang Xu and Wang's private meeting, the reporters and newspapers who published the news will become famous in an instant.

This is the real world.

Now, the war is about to end. I hope the media will truthfully report some news that is beneficial to the Wang family in the future, because this war is indeed the victory achieved by the Wang family.

I hope the media's responsibility is to record the truth. They cannot erase Wang's contributions, even if everyone is very dissatisfied with Wang.

But the more this happens, the less Jiang Xu can see the Wang family. If he just met the Wang family, he turned around and started reporting the good news about the Wang family, those who were waiting to see the collapse of the hope media would immediately make a big fuss.

At this time, Jiang Xu walked out of the Hope Media building. Although he was leaning on a crutch, his waist was straight.

Such a person who is self-disciplined and upholds principles will not hinder his demeanor even if he is lame with one leg.

Most of the time, Jiang Xu had a special car to pick him up and drop him off to Qinghe University, but I hope everyone in the media knows that Jiang Xu also has a small habit, which is that when he is in a very happy mood, he will walk over slowly without a car to send him away.

Someone secretly asked him why. Jiang Xu's answer was that when a person is in a good mood, his eyes will be particularly clear and beautiful when he looks at the world. His life is very short, and there are not many things when he is in a good mood, so you should cherish such a good scenery.

When walking on the street, many pedestrians would smile and signal when they saw Jiang Xu.

Many years ago, when Jiang Xu's leg was broken, he became the most respected person in Luocheng. At that time, many people would take the initiative to say hello to Jiang Xu when they saw Jiang Xu.

After that, more and more things are hoped that the media will adhere to principles, and Jiang Xu is becoming more and more respected, so that everyone can't help but greet him when they see Jiang Xu.

Then everyone found that no matter whether Jiang Xu knew or not, he would reply to greet him.

Later, everyone discovered that Jiang Xu's voice was hoarse.

I hope my colleagues in the media feel sorry for him, so I secretly tell you not to say hello in the future. With the personality of editor-in-chief Jiang Xu, he would not turn a blind eye to others to greet him. If this is the case every day, no one can stand it. Jiang Xu's time has been delayed to say hello.

So, the people of Luocheng gradually stopped greeting each other, but smiled and signaled after meeting.

But today is different. Somehow, the news of the phased victory of the war ahead also reached Luocheng. Someone saw Jiang Xu smiling and couldn't help but come up and ask: Hello, editor-in-chief, look at you in a good mood today. Have you also received news of a great victory on the front line?

Jiang Xu looked at the pedestrian who was asking questions, and he smiled and said: Yes.

So when will the war end and will we achieve the final victory?

I can't confirm this, Jiang Xu replied sternly: Everything is based on the news published in the newspaper, but I personally hope that the war will end soon.

The pedestrians were excited: Did you hear that? The editor-in-chief also received the news. The front line did win a big victory!

At this time, someone asked again: Editor-in-chief, it is now said that during the war, the Wang family sent people to destroy the Qing family's nuclear test base. Is this true?It is said that a press conference will be held in the Qing family.

Jiang Xu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this incident to spread so quickly, but he did not intend to answer this question: I cannot express my opinion until everything is done by Wang.Okay, I'm going to teach the students.

After saying that, Jiang Xu said goodbye to everyone with a smile.

As a result, he hadn't taken two steps yet. A young man in a suit suddenly hit him head-on. The young man walked very fast, so when he hit Jiang Xu, he almost made Jiang Xu, who was on a crutch, fall to the ground without standing firmly.

After Jiang Xu barely stood firm, he looked at the young man who was rushing by in surprise. The young man whispered apologies and lowered his head and quickly disappeared on the street corner.

However, the moment the young man disappeared, a huge neon billboard not far from Jiang Xu suddenly fell to the ground, making a huge loud noise.

Jiang Xu suddenly turned around and looked at the billboard on the ground. If the young man hadn't hit him just now, he would have been killed under the billboard at the speed of his walking.

At this moment, Jiang Xu looked at the broken billboard on the ground. The store owner rushed out. The other party glanced at the billboard on the ground. Then he saw that his billboard almost hit Jiang Xu. He hurriedly apologized to Jiang Xu and asked if Jiang Xu was fine.

Jiang Xu waved his hand and said it was okay, then looked at the billboard and thoughtfully.

Suddenly, he no longer walked towards Qinghe University, but turned around and walked towards another street.

Jiangxu passed through the long streets of Luocheng. The Paulownia trees beside the road had just sprouted, and the sunlight penetrated the branches and leaves on the ground, and everything became mottled.

He returned to his home and just opened the door with the key, the little Garfield at home rushed to his feet, holding his ankle and refused to leave.

Jiang Xu was stunned for a moment and Zhan Yan smiled and said: Luna, have you felt anything too?

As he said that, Jiang Xu sat on the walnut stool used to change shoes at the door, hugged the little Garfield in his arms, and gently scratched itch.

In an instant, the cat stretched out all its claws comfortably, looking very cute.

Jiang Xu walked into the house with the cat in his arms, and simply packed up the cat's litter and cat's toys, and then picked it up together and walked outside.

He came to the door of his neighbor's house and knocked on the door. The one who opened the door was a little girl of seven or eight years old. Jiang Xu smiled and said hello: Xiao Yue'er, are you at home alone?

The little girl named Li Yue'er looked up and saw Jiang Xu and said in surprise: Grandpa Jiang Xu!My parents are all going to work, and I am alone at home!

Jiang Xu squatted down in difficulty and put the cat's nest on the ground, then handed the cat to Li Yue'er. He smiled and said: You have always liked to play with Luna the most, but now I'll give her to you, okay?

Li Yue'er's eyes lit up: Is it true?

Really, Jiang Xu smiled and rubbed Li Yue'er's little head. The little girl's watermelon head was messed up, but the little girl's attention was all focused on Luna.

It seems that Luna and Li Yue'er are also very familiar, so they have no intention of resisting when they are held by the little girl.

Jiang Xu stood up and said: Take good care of her.

When Li Yue'er saw Jiang Xu leaving, she hurriedly asked: Grandpa Jiang Xu, where are you going?

Jiang Xu looked at Li Yue'er and smiled: Going to do some more important things, I always feel that there are still many things I haven't done.

As he said that, Jiang Xu left.

Finally, he looked back at the house where he had lived for decades. The yard was full of garlic sprouts that had just sprouted, and the sun was just shining.

……

At 10:20 in the morning, Zhang Chentong was reviewing the manuscript in his office, but he saw Jiang Xu through the glass.

Zhang Chentong stood up and asked: Editor-in-chief, aren’t you going to class?

Jiang Xu said to Zhang Chentong: Let’s make sauerkraut fish at noon, and you can ask the chef who delivers the ingredients to come here.

Zhang Chentong was stunned for a moment: OK, OK.

Jiang Xu returned to his office and looked here silently, then took a stack of letter paper and sat at the table. He sucked his pen with ink, and then picked up the pen and wrote: Xiao Su, first of all, congratulations to the Northwest Army on its victory in Zuoyun Mountain. I was very encouraged when I heard this news.Before this, I always thought that Fortress 178 might be out of the way, but it turned out that I was wrong, but after learning that I was wrongly estimating the situation, I was very happy...

When I first met, you sat in the conference room like an ordinary teenager. When you wrote down not to let the sorrow of the times become your sorrow, I felt something in my heart, but I always felt that this should not be the words you could say at your age.But at this moment I am very happy because I am sure you are the practitioner of this sentence. Thank you for protecting Hope Media that day, which lets us know that Hope Media is not alone in the path of adhering to principles and truth...

The road to adhere to principles and truth is difficult and dangerous, I knew from the beginning.But if the founder is needed on this road, I, Jiang Xu, are not the first, nor will they be the last...

I'm very happy to meet you, I wish you good luck and take care of you.

Jiang Xu wrote four letters in a row, and wrote them to different people.

Zhang Chentong knocked in and whispered: Editor-in-chief, the master who delivered the ingredients is here.

Jiang Xu stood up and stuffed four letters into Zhang Chentong's hands: hand them over.

After saying that, he turned around and opened the safe in the office, took out a kraft paper file bag from it, and walked towards the back door of the canteen downstairs.

There was already a fat driver waiting there early, and Jiang Xu smiled and said hello: You are getting fat again.

The living conditions are good, the fat driver smiled and said: Why did you suddenly...

Jiang Xu interrupted him and stuffed the file bag to him: Send it to an old place. This information is very important and cannot be put into the hands of those who are interested. He must wait for a period of 50 years to be made public.

OK I understand, the fat driver nodded seriously. He hesitated for a while and suddenly asked: Editor-in-chief, is something going on?

On weekdays, such secret information is transferred on time, but today Jiang Xu requested delivery in advance, and something must have happened.

Jiang Xu patted his shoulder and said calmly: It's okay, don't think too much.

The fat driver felt relieved when he saw that Jiang Xu's expression was indeed not panicked.

He hid the file bag in a secret compartment under a cargo box, then turned around and the car. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Xu looking at him seriously, as if he wanted to remember himself firmly.

It was like a silent farewell again.

Jiang Xu looked at the truck getting farther and farther away, and he said to Zhang Chentong: Drive me to Qinghe University. Please tell Qinghe University that I will change the class today and take up everyone’s lunch break.

Zhang Chentong arranged all this with a calm expression, while Jiang Xu stood in the building of Hope Media, looking at the names on the wall, which were the names of the pioneers on their road.

Li Xiáng investigated the current situation of gutter oil use in the Barrier Alliance. On the way home from the newspaper, he was stabbed dozens of times by criminals and died on the spot.

Jiang Weisuo investigated the fraud of Zhou's Kong dairy industry and was beaten and died in retaliatory action.

Jian Guangzhou.

Le Qian.

Yang Wei.

Gao Qinrong.

These names are engraved on the walls of Hope Media, reminding all reporters what kind of path they are going to take.

In fact, many people think that they hope that the media reporters will be brave, decisive and fearless, but in fact, Jiang Xu is very clear that the people he knows are no different from ordinary people.

They will also be fearful and panic.

The word responsibility is not as beautiful as imagined, but rather as cold as a rock. But even so, these people still chose this most difficult path to go tremblingly.

Moreover, more people will come on this path.

Just like what Jiang Xu wrote in the letter to Ren Xiaosu, Jiang Xu is not the first and will not be the last founder of this road.

Jiang Xu walked to the wall with a cane with names engraved on it, and gently wiped away the dust for everyone with his sleeve.

Zhang Chentong came behind him: Editor-in-chief, the car is ready, and the students from Qinghe University are also waiting.

Jiang Xu resolutely turned around and walked out of the building and got into the car.

When he arrived at the classroom, the classroom was full of students. Jiang Xu smiled and said: Sorry, because something was delayed, the morning class was not completed, and now it takes up everyone's lunch break. I'm very embarrassed.

The students in the audience didn't think much, everyone just said: It's okay, Teacher Jiang Xu, you can tell me, we don't have the habit of taking a nap anyway.

Jiang Xu smiled: I taught social humanities and politics, but today I want to talk about something different.Everyone here, do you want to know what I was doing when I was as old as you were?

The students suddenly became interested. Editor-in-chief Jiang Xu rarely mentioned his past Ah, and the class was worth it!

Jiang Xu looked at a female classmate: Guess what I was doing when I was as old as you were?

You must be investigating some unfair phenomena. The female classmate said loudly: Maybe she is hiding in a consortium to investigate first-hand information.

This answer is probably the answer in the hearts of every student.

However, Jiang Xu shook his head: No, when I was as old as you, I still wanted to be a knight. At that time, I was not doing my job properly, and I ate, drank and had fun every day. Once I smashed other people's glass and was caught in the Order Division. It was not until I was thirty-one that I suddenly felt that I could not keep playing like this.

The students were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that Jiang Xu's past would be so dull.

In their opinion, Jiang Xu should be the kind of person who was a good student when he was in school and was the president of the student union when he was in college. However, he did not expect that Jiang Xu would be like a gangster before he was thirty-one, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Jiang Xu said calmly: I tell you this matter to make you understand that when you want to work hard to change yourself, it is never too late.To put it bluntly, the best time to plant a tree is ten years ago, followed by now.

This war made me understand that Qinghe University had protected you so well in the past. You should really go outside more and see what changes have taken place in the world today, so that you can become more pragmatic. Jiang Xu said: I believe in your potential, so when you start to grow, you will definitely change rapidly.

The students in the podium suddenly felt that today's Editor-in-Chief Jiang Xu seemed a little different, not just the content of the lecture.

But I heard Jiang Xu change the subject at this time: But as you are about to change, I hope you can remember every sentence I said below.

When you start to see the various aspects of this society, I hope you still believe that rules can overcome unspoken rules.

I still believe that the academic field is different from the official field.

Still believe that academics do not equal power.

I still believe that character is far better than that of bones.

Nowadays, more and more people pursue level, fewer and fewer people pursue truth; more and more people talk about treatment, fewer and fewer people talk about ideals.Therefore, as you enter society, all I want to say is, please take good care of your passion and ideals.In this age of doubt, we still need faith.

Jiang Xu looked at the silent students under the podium, and he continued to speak: In Hope Media, there is an archive of many secrets and truths. I may have seen more darkness in this world than you, but I have seen so many truths and darkness, but I still love this world.Don’t let the sorrow of the times become your sorrow.

After saying that, Jiang Xu turned around and walked out of the classroom. This was his last lesson when he taught at Qinghe University.

Zhang Chentong was waiting outside the classroom, preparing to drive Jiang Xu away after class, but Jiang Xu said to him: You go back to Hope Media first, I want to go by alone.

After Zhang Chentong also left, Jiang Xu walked through Hongde Square at Qinghe University with a cane, walked through the tree-lined path next to the tennis court, and walked through the sculpture of a spring dripping in the center of the school.

He looked back at all this, and this is the path he has walked every week for more than 20 years, and today is no different from the past.

When he first came here, he was still very young. At that time, he wrote in his notebook, "It's easy to ride the wind, and it's thousands of miles away, and he's going down to see the mountains and rivers, but now he's old."

Thinking of those pioneers on the Hope Media Wall, he felt that it was more fortunate that he had never missed this rugged road.

Jiang Xu remembered all this in his mind and then walked out of school calmly.

The moment he stepped out of the school gate, a huge fire suddenly burst out from the street next door, as if someone was fighting there.

In an instant, an amber golden dragon flew into the sky, then swooped down and fell into the next street.

Since the previous melee, An Ning has been broken again.

The residents of Luocheng began to flee, and the fire was burning, and huge black smoke rose into the sky.

With gunfire and bursting, Jiang Xu walked calmly in this noisy world. He stood at a crossroads and looked at a young man in black standing on the street opposite.

A surging crowd fled through the streets, but Jiang Xu and the young man stood without moving.

Jiang Xu no longer looked at the other party but looked at the huge Luo City. This is where he lived for the rest of his life. Before that, he knew that this day would come sooner or later, and he was even afraid of it.

But at this moment, he was no longer afraid.

In a trance, Jiang Xu seemed to see phantoms appearing beside him, including Jian Guangzhou, Li Xi, Le Qian, and Yang Wei. They were all smiling at him.

And a young self.

The young self asked softly: Do you regret it?

Jiang Xu laughed: No regrets.

After saying that, all the illusory light and shadow dissipated in his heart. Jiang Xu turned to the young man in black and said: Take action, don’t hurt the innocent anymore.

The young man quietly raised his gun and pulled the trigger.

The bullets seemed to have split the crowd and the sea, and also split life.

Blood was dyed from Jiang Xu's gray suit on his chest. Jiang Xu sat slowly on the ground and gently placed the crutches aside, just like treating an old friend.

At this time, a young man in a suit ran towards the street, with blood on his face.

The gunman in black originally wanted to escape in the chaos, but when he saw the young man in suit, he directly raised his gun and pointed the trigger at his chin and pulled it.

Immediately, the gunman in black was penetrated by a bullet.

The young man in a suit looked at Jiang Xu's body from a distance. He said in the headset: Mission failed, evacuate.Repeat, the mission failed, Lao Tang, evacuate as soon as possible.

……

Thirty years ago, a slutty young man walked in outside a small newspaper. He pushed the door and shouted: Are you recruiting reporters here?

The newspaper's door was broken, as if it had just been smashed, and there was only one old editor left in the newspaper.

The old editor helped out with his glasses: We don’t recruit idle people here.

Hello, old man, please be careful when speaking. What are idle people in society? Young people are not happy.

The old editor looked at him silently: What's your name?

The young man said: Jiangxu, if you don’t change your name or your surname, Jiangxu, the west street of Luocheng!Have you heard of me?

The old editor was happy: I heard that, then tell me why you suddenly want to be a reporter?

Young Jiang Xu thought for a while and said: I just don’t want to live a life anymore. My mother said before her death that I would continue to live like this. She would not be at ease even if she died. Also, I always feel that this world should not be like this, do you understand?I saw it the day before yesterday...

The old editor asked: Why come to our newspaper?

A few days ago, I heard that you were smashed because of the report on the factory shady scenes. Young Jiang Xu laughed happily: Don’t worry, when I come, I will see who dares to come and smash the door?

The old editor handed him a form: Have you heard of the profession of investigative journalist?

Investigation reporter?Does the reporter still have a classification?Young Jiang Xu said in confusion.

Of course, the old editor smiled: This is the most dangerous profession among journalists and the most difficult path in the world.

The young Jiang Xu became proud: The old guy understands me, I like the most difficult one!

The old editor has confirmed again: Don’t look back if you don’t hit the wall?

Young Jiang Xu smiled brightly: Don’t worry, he won’t look back even if he hits the south wall.
