Confessions of a non-mainstream journalist

Tyshawn 2022-04-24 07:01:02

My name is Luis, and I'm currently doing freelance work, such as taking some lesser-valued manhole covers and railway iron nets to the recycling station for sale. I don't think this career is suitable for a long time, but you know, I don't study much, and many jobs require a stupid diploma as a stepping stone, and I know much more than that. I usually spend most of my time online. The magic of the Internet is that you can get any information and knowledge you want on it. We have listened to many public courses online and signed up for an economics course. . This knowledge opened my eyes, and I seemed to have found a formula for a successful life.
Stealing manhole covers is not a long-term solution. I proposed to the owner of the junkyard to work at his place, but he rejected me, he rejected a shameful thief in his mouth, he did not see my value and ideal. I'm a little frustrated.
By chance, I entered the freelance journalism industry and went to the crime scene to shoot news and sell it to the media. I didn't expect the director to be so excited when she saw the bloody scenes I shot up close. In her eyes, I saw the value of the video in her hands. I have determined my career direction.
Bloody, violent... The more impactful the picture, the more it can attract people's attention. I am a professional photographer. In order to capture the freshest picture, I always step on the gas pedal. The stupid kid next to me who asks for 30 yuan a day has no idea about the validity period and value of our business. Sometimes I will arrive at the crime scene before the police, but sometimes the scene of the scene can not make the audience feel too emotional, it is necessary to do something at this time, such as posing for a picture, so that the corpse is in the center of the picture is more suitable for exquisite composition. Location.
Later, I encountered a big case. Fortunately, the police were inefficient enough. When I came to the scene of the crime, gunshots were still ringing in the villa, which was really exciting. I hid in the dark and photographed the faces and cars of the criminals, and after they pulled away, I took the camera to the villa. Everything inside is so shocking, the guns dropped, the bodies scattered in several places, the blood on the white carpet, all of which appear silently in the camera can make the audience hold their breath. No baby room, weird, where did the baby go, it doesn't matter, isn't that more eye-catching?
When I took part of this house to the director, I got the price I wanted, and it was the most expensive film I've ever sold. I could see from the director's eyes that she needed it. This poor woman who is about to be fired, her show would have had lower ratings if I hadn't been giving her headlines lately. Now that I can make a request to her, my news production company is about to start on the right track. She introduced me to the other big names in the radio station, everyone is the same, you can provide him with the value he needs, and of course he has to give you a smile in return, I've been very familiar with the radio station.
You might ask me why I didn't hand over the criminal part, but people are waiting for the story, and it's the story that attracts attention, and the bizarre story has to have a twist to be attractive. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to help them get away with it, I just want to wait until the right time, and at the angle that makes the most of the drama. That's it for tonight. I followed the criminal's car and they might have found me with the nasty assistant next to me, plus my assistant haggled with me, which was really unbearable. Why can't he come by the rules? A good employee should cherish the opportunity of his job, and be clear about what he should do and what he should take. This ignorant kid actually wants to share half of today's news reward of $50,000. His understanding of the boss's value and his own value is too confusing.
They ate at a convenient restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows, just in time. After calling the police, two policemen entered the store. The criminal took out his gun. You can see that his hand was hidden under the table, almost aiming. The two policemen still didn't know what happened. They started a shootout, someone was injured, one of the criminals died and the other was on the run. The scene of the police chasing the car was so exciting that I asked my assistant to turn on the camera and keep recording it. In the end, the police car and the criminal's car collided and both cars tipped over. I got out of the car to shoot to find the criminal trapped in the cab of the overturned car with a gun in his right hand. I told the silly assistant in the car that he was dead and asked him to come over and take pictures. Of course the criminal wasn't dead, he shot my assistant as he was in front of him. The police who came later fired at the criminal. It's all in my video.
When I gave this news to the director, her calm face was about to be betrayed by the excitement in her heart. When the picture was frozen, the face of my assistant lying on the ground with a gunshot wound appeared in the camera. She looked at me, I know she likes the news. Others on the station said the crime had nothing to do with a recent show on the network about the crime's transition to the suburban rich, a case of drug dealing. But, what does it matter, we make what people care about. People care about crime diversion, then we will show you the crime diversion, the truth, the truth of numbness and panic, who needs it?
Then my production team started to expand, and in the near future, I will monopolize this market. In this era of the weak, you have to hunt like a wolf and hunt for food. I appeared on the front line in a timely manner. When I was shooting, I was always close to the scene. When I was choosing news, I could always see the part that people were most concerned about. As for the victim's thoughts and psychological endurance, ah, this Is it something to do with news reports?
