Chapter 3895: Chapter 3883: Business Interview

"Xu Qingqing is a real beauty, you don’t even want to go take a look?"

"Her figure’s like a discus, flat on both sides, I honestly have zero interest. Better let Brother Jun and Sister Li go."

"Haha..."

Feng Chengrong burst out laughing. "Kid, you really know how to describe people."

"Just telling it like it is." Lin Yi said with a grin.

"Main thing is, if I go interview Xu Qingqing, then no one will be following up on the Northern Commerce visit." Zhou Li said.

"That’s easy, I’ll take care of it." Lin Yi said.

"You sure you can handle it? This isn’t some regular interview, the people coming are all big shots. You might not be able to cover it alone."

"How about I go." Dong Xiao came over, heels clicking loudly on the floor.

"I’ll team up with Lin Yi, it shouldn’t be a major problem."

"That works. I’ll assign you another cameraman, try to lock this thing down."

"We’ll do our best." Dong Xiao said:

"Will any of the other shows from the station be following this interview?"

"Morning News will also be reporting on it. Depends on whether we can get ahead of them." Feng Chengrong said.

"Morning News?"

Lin Yi muttered, "Why does that sound kind of familiar?"

"Wang Jia’s husband, Ma Anchen, is the producer of that show. We were just talking about it at lunch, did you forget already?" Dong Xiao came over and said.

"Now I remember. In that case, we have to bag this interview no matter what. Even if we can’t get it, we definitely can’t let them have it."

"That’s pretty much it. We have to nail it." Zhou Li said:

"If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll go with you too. We absolutely can’t drop the ball."

"Hey hey hey, what’s with you two, both fighting to go with him? Makes it look like I’m totally unwanted." Ma Jun said.

The two women laughed.

"Nothing we can do, good-looking guys always get special treatment." Zhou Li said.

"Alright, it’s about time. Split up the tasks. Even if we don’t get the Northern Commerce interview, we can’t let Morning News have it." Feng Chengrong said.

"Got it."

In the end, they split into two teams.

Lin Yi and Dong Xiao formed one team, taking another cameraman along to interview the Northern Commerce delegation.

Zhou Li and Ma Jun went together to interview Xu Qingqing.

Once everything was arranged, Lin Yi drove out with Dong Xiao and the cameraman.

"Sister Xiao, where is the Northern Commerce delegation staying?"

"Shangri-La Hotel." Dong Xiao said:

"Generally for business visits like this, they’ll be arranged to stay there. Once we get over, we’ll contact someone from the secretary team and see if they can spare us some time for an interview."

"Normally there’s always an interview segment, and they’ll definitely arrange journalists. Which outlet did the organizers designate?"

"Zhonghai News, but other channels also have interview rights. You just have to fight for it yourself."

Dong Xiao propped her head up with one hand and said:

"And Zhonghai News’s interviews are super official. You’ve probably seen similar shows, all the interviews are about official talking points during the meetings. So we need to go the down-to-earth route, show another side of these business leaders."

"Got it."

Dong Xiao chuckled. "I heard there’s an official banquet at the hotel tonight. If we really get a chance to interview these people, we might be able to sneak in a big feast and treat our taste buds."

"That’s exactly the kind of interview I like."

"But first we have to actually secure the interview. Be mentally prepared, this isn’t easy. Those people aren’t just anyone you can interview."

"I actually think, if we can’t get it, Morning News might not either." Lin Yi said.

"That show itself doesn’t have anything particularly special. The only exception is Ma Anchen—his connections are impressive. He’s only been at the station not even two years, and he’s already a producer. Can you believe that pace?"

"That’s definitely not slow."

"Wang Jia’s current status is thanks to him too. The Shengxin Pharmaceutical Factory endorsement was apparently something she landed through him."

"In that case, his ability and network really are pretty decent." Lin Yi commented.

"Setting everything else aside, he’s genuinely capable. And his parents seem to have quite some clout too—heard they were both public officials, not ordinary ones either."

Out of habit, Dong Xiao swept back her hair, tucking the stray strands on her forehead behind her ear.

"So the show isn’t exactly a big deal, but Ma Anchen himself does have some ability. His odds of getting this interview are slightly higher than ours."

Lin Yi nodded, not showing any emotion on his face.

If it were some other industry, he and Lingyun Group might not have that much influence.

But this time it was the Northern United Chamber of Commerce visiting, and Lingyun Group still had a lot of say.

At this point it wasn’t about whether they agreed or not—one word from him and they’d all line up properly.

"Oh right, Sister Xiao, when does that episode about the pharmaceutical factory air?"

Dong Xiao checked her watch. "It’s airing right now."

Lin Yi also glanced at the time. It was 6:32 p.m.

"I feel the content of these episodes has been pretty good. Plus we have the surprise factor of Xu Qingqing; might actually pull the ratings up."

"Mao Yi and Zhou Shen are also at the station recording a show. If needed, you could go interview them too." Lin Yi said.

"That would be great. I’ll tell Brother Rong about it later."

"Mm."

The two chatted for a bit, then Lin Yi kept driving, and they soon arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel.

"Sister Xiao, you go in first. I’ll wait a bit and make a phone call."

"Sure, call home and check in so your wife doesn’t think you’re out fooling around." Dong Xiao joked.

"You really understand life, Sister Xiao."

Dong Xiao and the cameraman got out of the car first.

Lin Yi parked in an empty spot and dialed Qi Xianzhao.

"Director Lin."

"A Northern Commerce delegation has come to visit us. Are you aware of this?"

"Yeah, Lingyun Group was invited to attend too, but I had other things so I didn’t go. Tao Yuan and Tian Yan went over. I heard there’s a banquet tonight as well."

"Okay, got it."

"Director Lin, are you planning to discuss business with them? Do you need me to come over now?"

"It’s not about the company. There’s an interview covering this event, and the TV station sent me over. I’m just trying to get a feel for what’s going on inside."

Qi Xianzhao was half amused, half helpless.

"The main topics are investment and cooperation. The banquet doesn’t seem to be open to the public—journalists and so on probably can’t get in." Qi Xianzhao said:

"I’ll call Tao Yuan and have her arrange something. We should at least have that much face."

"Call Tian Yan instead, so He Yuanyuan doesn’t show off in front of me."

"Okay, understood."

After hanging up on Qi Xianzhao, Lin Yi整理了一下东西,walked toward the hotel.
