    Hong Kong, morning, sunny.  In the editorial department of Star Weekly, Thomson's office, the roar was deafening. The reason is very simple. Three hours have passed since Xie Kai's submission time, but there is no news.  Of course Xie Kai didn't refuse to hand it over, it was because he couldn't hand it over. He had already finished writing it. He wanted to check it again in Jalal-Abad and pass it to him, but when he arrived in Jalal-Abad, he started running for his life. Besides, there was electronic suppression by the US military.  I can't pay even if I want to.  He could refuse to hand it over, but Thomson couldn't wait. The letter he thanked was almost at the last minute and was going to be printed soon. Not only did he not have any news, but he couldn't get through the phone. He was so anxious that he was running around and cursing every living thing in sight.  I don¡¯t know how many times the assistant Ah Cai came over: ¡°Brother Tang, the printing factory is pressing me again, what should I do?¡± Thomson didn¡¯t know what to do, so he had to pull his neck and shout again: ¡°A Mei, has the phone been connected?¡±  The girl hurriedly ran over: "After a few hours, my fingers are broken, but I can't get through. It's really a ghost." Thomson opened his mouth and cursed: "What a ghost, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the ghost! Ah Kai  It¡¯s your boss too. Why am I sorry to you? A quarter of your monthly salary is given to you by Akai. Why can¡¯t you say something auspicious to Akai? If there is anything wrong with Akai, I will be the first to fire him.  You bastard!" "What the hell!" After being scolded so badly, Ah Mei raised her mouth in grievance and looked at Ah Cai for help.  Ah Cai suggested: "Brother Tang, this is not the way to go. There are other manuscripts from Brother Kai, why not take them out and deal with them?" Thomson immediately changed the target: "Are you crazy to deal with this? This is a special issue! Special issue  Do you understand? Using other content for the most important article is called deception. Do you understand that readers will be fooled? Who will buy our magazine in the future? Do you want to hurt the sales?  Am I going to go bankrupt?" Ah Cai held back his temper and said, "I'd better add an apology statement, otherwise I'd have to stop posting it." Thomson got even more angry: "Are you an idiot for not posting it? This is the best way to gain sales.  Time, you are your wife's aunt, you come here once a month, do you want me to miss this opportunity?" Seeing that A Mei was still there, he shouted again: "Keep calling, like a wooden stake?  Stand here." A Mei ran away crying.  Ah Cai had long been accustomed to Thomson's nature and was not angry at being scolded. He said helplessly: "It won't work this way, that won't work either. Then you ask me, what should I do? What's the use of scolding me here?"  "Thomson was also tired of scolding. He sat down on the chair dejectedly, rolled his eyes gloomily and said: "Just find another article in the archives, and then issue a statement, saying that Akai fought with terrorists in Afghanistan for the sake of world peace.  He is fighting, his life and death are uncertain, and his whereabouts are unknown. He calls on all readers in Hong Kong who like him and those who care about him to pray for him. "I have to say that Thomson is indeed a genius. Such a statement can not only avoid the situation in front of him.  Trouble can still win a lot of sympathy. At this moment, there is absolutely no better way than this, but it is a bit unhuman and only seeking profit, and its profiteer nature is clearly visible.  Ah Cai couldn't believe it and said: "Ah! Is this, is this appropriate?" Thomson said hysterically: "Just go if you are told! He said there is no way, now I give you a way and you are asking here and there, I will give it to you for free  The salary is increased!" Ah Cai said bravely, "Okay, I'll just go." Thomson slowed down and said, "Wait until the magazine is released, and then notify all the media." Ah Cai looked at him.  After one glance, he nodded reluctantly and turned around.  After solving the problem, Thomson sat down in the chair as if he was a different person.  It is his responsibility to maintain the good operation of the magazine, but it does not mean that he wants to cause anything to happen.  Being late for a manuscript submission may not be a big deal for other authors and is not worth worrying about, but Xie Kai is an extremely punctual person. They have worked together for more than two years, and this is the first time for them both at work and in personal relationships.  What's more, he was responsible for the trip to Afghanistan. Coupled with Xie Kai's adventurous personality, he had to worry.  Tom Sun Mo sat for a while, picked up the phone expressionlessly, and dialed the phone over and over again  ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó American, Virginia Lanley, the headquarters of the Central Love Bureau.  Because of the same time difference, it¡¯s early morning in Hong Kong and late at night in Afghanistan, but here it¡¯s the red sunset in the evening.  The newly appointed Director Fred is in his office, waving his two thick arms vigorously, doing a required daily course: shining shoes.  As a former Vice Admiral of the Navy and the terrifying director of the CIA, Fred doesn¡¯t seem to have to do this himself every day, and he has to do it twice, but this is his job.?A good habit developed during his college days. He believes that polishing his leather shoes every morning will make him full of energy throughout the day; polishing his leather shoes in the evening will also make him full of energy in bed at night. Due to his age, he now especially needs energy at night.  .  Fred was recharging his batteries when the door opened slightly and assistant Joel walked in with a file and a smile on his face.  Fred didn't even notice that his assistant came in without knocking. He kept moving his hands and said kindly: "Hey, Joel, do you want to shine your shoes with me?" Joel smiled flatteringly: "I'm afraid not, General.  The entire United States of America knows that this is your patent. If I do this over my own power, I will definitely become the laughing stock of the entire United States." Fred laughed happily, but knowing that he must be in trouble, he stopped and put on his shoes.  Returning to his office, he pointed to the document in his hand and asked: "Tell me, Joel, why is it so urgent?" Joel sat aside and did not mention the document first, but said: "The Pentagon just called and said that Ni  Something happened to General Mqi, do you know him?" Dolu was doing mischief in Afghanistan. Although Nimqi was helpless, he was not stupid enough to let it go completely, so he reported it as soon as possible. If such an unexpected incident happened, he would be able to distance himself to some extent.  .  Fred spread his hands and said: "Of course, although that rude guy can also shine shoes, he wears a pair of smelly socks every day. Isn't he in Jalal-Abad? What's the matter?" Joel considered  : "It's the matter of Webmaster Dolu. Webmaster Dolu is conducting an operation. I hope he will cooperate, so he will report it according to the procedure." Fred said: "What action?" Joel said euphemistically: "It's your ex.  As you know, some captured terrorists are in very bad health, and we have to give them humanitarian treatment. In order to make them recover faster, we sometimes choose some new drugs. Of course, these drugs are all used.  After the monkey test, it is completely harmless, just a procedure" Fred frowned.  As a soldier, he doesn't like such things, but he doesn't object to it either. He just doesn't understand why terrorists must be used?  In his opinion, there are a lot of prisoners in American prisons who have committed heinous crimes and deserve to be 10,000 times worse than terrorists. They can be used without worrying about anything and causing unnecessary trouble.  Joel was still a little confused about his new boss. He observed while talking and stopped talking wisely.  Fred opened his face again and said gently: "It's okay, Joel, you go on, I'm listening." Joel decided to omit the "unnecessary" content, directly picked up Xie Kai and said: "But this matter  , was destroyed by a Chinese reporter, and Dolu was forced to take action in order to safeguard the honor of the United States of America.¡±
