Chapter 8 (2/2)
“Deputy
Bureau Director Wong is up there negotiating with the jumper He doesn’t have the
time to entertain you”
The
policee from his stance
“Does
this policeainst the media…?”
Society
beat reporters typically have good rapport with law enforcement because they work
alongside each other Their work often overlaps
Regretfully,
Se Cai was still too new at his job to be able to call special contacts that
would help hiht wheels
Se Cai
sighed deeply and quickly pulled from his pocket his cellphone He had no
choice but to try his luck with his contacts down at the police bureau
His
contacts were the ement people the policeman mentioned They were
responsible for releasingpress release and so forth In other words, they were the bureau’s media handlers
Therefore, these people had constant contact with the tv station
Se Cai
hoped he could get soood out of his contacts
Se Cai though
was caught in total shock when he looked at his phone
He had
forgotten to charge it the night before because he was too tired!
No
was he going to find help?
“Fck!
I’et up there or I’ll miss the news!”
Se Cai
screamed internally
The
syste News Point was not only dependent on his piece getting
on the lead news, but also it needed to garner a sizeable public response
Granted
the report on the jumper had neorthiness but ere a few pictures of the
sidewalk, building and the crowd going to amount to? Without a shot of the
actual scene, his piece ram, much less the lead
news!
Right
then, a cap-wearing muscular teen and a woman in a white suit ran over
The
teen was lugging along a camera and the woman had in her hand a wireless
e
The
pair rushed hastily towards the entrance
“Hey
there, please step behind the line…”
The
policeman stepped forth to stop them but he froze on the spot when he noticed
the inspector ore a white unifor behind them
Almost
instantly, his stern expressionsmile He pulled the line
up to allow the trio to go through
“White
uniform?”
Se Cai
thought to himselfAn officer had to at
least be a Class 3 Commissioner to be able to wear a white uniform
Such
high ranking officers were rare in Province City Z much less County S
According
to his memory, there was no one in County S law enforce
enough to wear a white uniform… except the newly transferred County Politics
and Legislative Commissioner!
The new
commissioner as also the police bureau’s director had the surname Xie
Because he had to handle ement of the police bureau
nor, the person whom
the policeotiation with the jumper
Spotting
this opportunity, Se Cai came forth to accost the commissioner, “Nice to meet you,
commissioner I’m Se Cai, a reporter from County S Tv Station I would like to
ask for permission to enter the scene to report on the news…”
“County
S Tv Station?”
The
commissioner frowned, he said impatiently, “the 2 person I ith are from
Province X Tv Station They happened to be giving me an interviehen this happened
In any case, for a scene as delicate as this, the fewer media there is, the
better We don’t need you here”
With
that, he turned and left
The
policeman threw hiet
lost!”
Se Cai
retreated with a sigh
After
all, the reporter from the province station came with the accompaniment of the
commissioner He? He was just a nobody
He knew
that to be the reality of life but it still irked him to no end
