Chapter 82 of the book: The arrogant actress dreams of peach blossoms every night

Soon, the one-hour deadline was up. Everyone handed in their test papers and waited for their names to be called for the interview.

Xiao Yang was the last one to be called in for the interview.

The person who had been interviewed before him was none other than one of the two comrades who had been transferred internally. However, when they came out, they all looked a little dejected.

The two men met in the hallway, both with sullen faces, and complained, "What's wrong with Director Wang today? Isn't he usually quite kind? Why is he so aggressive today, speaking so harshly?"

"I guess he had a fight with his wife. That's why he's so angry at everyone!"

"That's not true. Didn't his nephew go for the interview before me? When he came out, his mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear. He obviously had the upper hand."

"So, Director Wang is doing this on purpose? Is that why he's deliberately making things difficult for us?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Xiao Yang had already been mentally prepared for the situation in the examination room - it seemed that Wang Jianguo was determined to give this position to Wang Hao. He thought that his situation might not be as good as the two comrades before him.

This interview will definitely not be easy.

However, what needs to be faced must be faced eventually. After taking several deep breaths, Xiao Yang walked into the classroom.

In the classroom, the desks that were originally arranged in an orderly manner have been moved to both sides of the wall, leaving a small open space in the middle.

In the very center of the open space, there is a table and a chair.

About 1.5 meters away from the table, three people sat side by side: Wang Jianguo, a middle-aged woman, and someone Xiao Yang also recognized: Fang Xinyu, whom he had met not long ago.

Thanks to the guidance of Teacher Fang, he was able to submit his article to the newspaper and received a considerable amount of royalties.

Xiao Yang was grateful to her, but he also knew that he couldn't show that he knew her at this time.

With Zhao An's support, Xiao Yang hadn't even reached his desk yet. He placed his hands on the surface and forced a smile. He glanced at the three examiners levelly: "Hello, distinguished examiners. I'm Xiao Yang..."

When Xiao Yang mentioned that he had published articles in Du, the eyes of the middle-aged woman in the middle lit up: "Comrade Xiao Xiao, did you bring your published works today?"

Xiao Yang quickly took out the relevant manuscript from his bag and handed it to Zhao An beside him, asking him to deliver it to the middle-aged woman.

"I'm so sorry, teachers. I hurt my leg earlier, so I had to..."

The middle-aged woman glanced at the manuscript and waved her hand, "This isn't important. We're doing publicity work, not performing on stage."

It's good. After reading the article, she didn't say anything, but a faint smile appeared on her face. Then, she handed the two manuscripts in her hand to Wang Jianguo and Fang Xinyu beside her: "You two take a look too."

Fang Xinyu took a look at the manuscript and a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes. She thought to herself that this kid is really capable. He actually had a work published in the newspaper in such a short time.

At the same time, she felt a little proud in her heart - this child was not the one she had chosen, he was a talented person.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously wanted to help Xiao Yang: "That's really good. I heard that it's common to be rejected eight or ten times when submitting to these two newspapers. How many times did Comrade Xiao Yang get his manuscripts rejected?"

Xiao Yang said modestly: "Maybe I was lucky, I passed with just one try."

Fang Xinyu said with admiration: "That's really amazing."

The middle-aged woman in the middle also nodded: "It's really good."

Then, she turned her gaze to Wang Jianguo beside her: "Director Wang, what do you think?"

Wang Jianguo casually took the manuscript without even glancing at it and said calmly, "The requirements for submissions from both of them are quite high. To be able to publish an article there at such a young age, you must have great talent in writing."

He then changed the subject, "The station is currently preparing to broadcast a lecture series on loving life, but the opening poem hasn't been finalized yet. Since Comrade Xiao Yang is so talented, could he write a modern poem about loving life on the spot?"

Writing poetry on the spot, and such an important poem?

Fang Xinyu's brow furrowed again. Normally, the Propaganda Department took a long time to write anything. Asking them to improvise poetry now was clearly putting it in a difficult position.

Besides, the publicity department doesn't need to worry about the opening poem for this lecture. Do you really think the program's directors are just sitting around doing nothing?

The most important thing is, you interviewed so many people before, but you didn't let them create on the spot.

After a moment's hesitation, she smiled and said, "Director Wang, literary creation requires inspiration. If we really wait until he finishes, won't it be too late?"

Wang Jianguo seemed to have not heard Fang Xinyu's words at all. He looked at Xiao Yang with a half-smile: "People with good writing skills are not short of inspiration. Comrade Xiao Yang can publish articles in newspapers, so writing a short poem should not be a problem, right?"

Xiao Yang had realized this a long time ago. Since Wang Hao had already shamelessly come to take the exam, Wang Jianguo would definitely not let him off during the interview.

Even more, you should try to irritate yourself as much as possible during the interview.

Because, only in this way can his nephew have a chance of survival.

More importantly, he had to write this poem even if he didn't want to. If he didn't write it, Wang Jianguo would immediately question whether the article he submitted was written by someone else.

Moreover, if he fails to perform at his best, he will be criticized.

It can be said that Wang Jianguo is worthy of being the director of the Propaganda Department, as he used this trick very ruthlessly.

Xiao Yang's expression remained unchanged as he continued calmly, "Then I'll give it a try. But I might need to trouble the teachers to give me five minutes to think about it."

Wang Jianguo almost laughed out loud when he heard this. He wanted to create a modern poem in just five minutes. Was this a joke?

Even Fang Xinyu, who had always had a good impression of Xiao Yang, frowned tightly. She wondered if the kid was okay. Could he have been so angry and confused by Wang Jianguo's deliberate targeting?

At this moment, Wang Jianguo asked in disbelief, "Are you sure you only need five minutes?"

There was three parts of suspicion and three parts of sarcasm in his tone.

Xiao Yang nodded: "Five minutes is enough."

Wang Jianguo suddenly revealed a hint of a sneer. As his eyes passed, a bold idea suddenly emerged in his mind.

After a dry laugh, he picked up the cup in front of him and said to the middle-aged woman in the middle: "I'll go get some water, do you want some?"

The middle-aged woman was stunned and thought that the interview was about to end and she had to drink water at this time.

However, due to Wang Jianguo's identity, she didn't say much. She smiled, shook her head, and shut up.
