Chapter 24 The grievances between the coal boss and the "Old Kee"

In the eyes of some media reporters, Shanxi Coal Boss is a "wealthy group" who is rich, spends money like water, behaves rudely, and has a relatively negative image.And when so many "news points" are gathered in the coal boss, the lifestyle and survival rules of this group will naturally receive high attention from the media. At the beginning, as a "bumpkin" farmer who had never seen the world, the "image" of the reporter seemed to be "incomparably tall" in the minds of these people.At first, the coal boss still respected the media somewhat, but as the opportunities for dealing with the two sides increased, the "noble index" of journalists in the eyes of the coal boss has dropped sharply.

A coal boss once recalled his journey of getting rich to reporters in this way: in the process of starting a business, the "exponent" of life-threatening adventures and the harvest of digging wealth have always run through the luck and luck of "30-70". When he first entered the coal industry, it was when the national energy market was in a downturn. When he started this industry, he was "forced to go to the top of the mountain" because he had no means of living.It can be said that at that time no one could have imagined that digging coal could "make a fortune" or "make a fortune". They just wanted to "support their families" like the local coal bosses. The bickering made a "two-shot" temper and simply wanted to "gamble" and take over those coal mines that no one dared to contract.

Maybe it was a twist of fate, the situation changed almost overnight, a poor and hungry man became a rich and powerful man.Inadvertently becoming a "rich man" for a while, the coal boss naturally has more "social attention" than ordinary people. The life legend of the coal boss will naturally become valuable "material" for these journalists to "write a thousand words". Unfortunately, so far, we have not seen a "positive news report" about the coal boss's entrepreneurship. Of course, as a person in society, the coal boss still has the common people's mentality of saving face, showing off, and competing for wealth.Their "vanity and high-profile" and "excessive publicity" in their daily behavior make it reasonable to cause everyone to be jealous.

There is also a more important reason, which is the long-standing thinking of Chinese people that "don't worry about scarcity but inequality", and some coal bosses only care about making money for themselves, disregarding the lives of the people, and unwilling to take social responsibility. Caused a lot of social conflicts, they naturally became the formation of new social hot spots, focus. When these weaknesses of the coal bosses were gradually criticized by the society and "infinitely magnified" by the media that had the right to speak out in public opinion, the public opinion foundation for the Shanxi coal bosses to be "demonized" was "perfectly formed."

There is a saying, "One person tells the truth, and ten thousand people tell the truth." What's more, there are conclusive evidences for many things!Therefore, some people say that apart from certain social factors, the "demonization" of coal bosses is mainly due to the coal bosses themselves! Once a group is "demonized", they will inevitably be blamed, and even their occasional good deeds will not be noticed! For example, donate to the disaster-stricken areas in Wenchuan. In fact, the coal bosses donated a large amount. However, in the eyes of some media, the image of Shanxi coal bosses is still a "morality" of "seeking profit", "greedy" and "selfishness". dwarf".
