Chapter 18 36 students complained to the newspaper

Strictly speaking, I became a journalist in the true sense only after I entered the Southern Metropolis Daily.When I was a reporter for the Metropolitan Daily, the most outstanding news I did was planning and writing a large number of social news with strong social repercussions; what I was most famous for was that I often went undercover with my colleagues to go undercover in various places in Yangcheng. Facing thrilling dangers again and again, uncovered one shady scene after another. The so-called social news refers to "news about personal conduct, social activities, social events, social problems and natural phenomena that are closer to personal daily life." explicit interview.Social news occupies an important position in any newspaper, but it is especially important compared to Metropolis Daily and Evening News.

It is the unhesitating responsibility of journalists to pursue the truth of the facts.Overt interview is certainly the most commonly used interview method by most journalists, but covert interview has become the most commonly used method by media reporters in recent years.Overt interview, as the name suggests, is an open, face-to-face interview without any cover; the so-called implicit interview is a kind of helplessness that the reporter has to do when the interviewee does not cooperate, do not support, block, etc. Method.This is also a "second battlefield" for journalists who take the courage to explore and pursue the truth as their bounden duty to carry out the interview to the end - to hide the identity of the reporter, disguise themselves, and go to the news scene for personal experience, so as to reveal the facts in time the truth.From the perspective of news interviewing, covert interview is also called covert experiential interview, which means that the reporter does not disclose his identity as a reporter to the interviewee, and does not tell his purpose of interviewing, by simulating a certain social role or making up It is a special interview method to approach the source of the interview with a special identity and obtain news facts, so it is also called "unannounced interview", "undercover", "private interview", "sneak shot", "sneak recording" and so on.This method, compared to radio and television media, is "secret filming" and "secret recording".Because radio and television media generally have candid cameras or micro-recorders, they can obtain evidence of "all stolen goods" and "hard evidence" from the scene in a timely manner, which not only greatly enhances the credibility of the news, but also makes the criticized object dumb. Keep your head down and submit; but for journalists of the paper media, this type of interview is also called "undercover" or "unannounced interview", which is commonly referred to as "undercover unannounced interview". Undoubtedly, this kind of interview is extremely risky .Relatively speaking, print media reporters are more risky than radio and television reporters, because they cannot carry a camera camera with them, let alone openly take out a camera to shoot. They can only record with their eyes and thoughts, and write manuscripts based on personal experience.Because of the lack of ironclad evidence for journalists in the paper media, some of the targets of criticism often jump over the wall in a hurry and refuse to admit their responsibility.Based on this, famous programs such as CCTV's "Focus Interview", "News Investigation", and "News 30 Minutes" often expose the ugly phenomena in social life and the violations of laws and disciplines of some local officials, but they are rarely seen. Those critics are brought to court, and newspaper journalists are often pushed to the dock due to limited conditions for interviews.Apart from the arrogance of the target of criticism, this unbelievable and strange phenomenon is mainly due to the fact that my country has not yet promulgated the "News Supervision Law", and there are no suitable legal provisions to protect the legitimate rights and interests of journalists.

Yes, for unannounced visits with complex situations, major events, heavy resistance, and long interview time, not only are reporters required to pass by with different identities like passers-by, but more often, reporters are required to spend a long time concealing their true identities , disguised as their respective roles, risking various dangers such as being beaten, scolded, locked in a dark room, and threatened with life, to go deep into the tiger's den and dance with wolves. This is what we often call "undercover unannounced visits."In the "Modern Chinese Dictionary", the explanation of the word "undercover" is very simple: ambush for internal response.We usually also know from film and television books, newspapers and magazines that most of the people who work undercover are extremely brave, courageous, special agents, spies, scouts and other characters with special identities.Not only have they undergone long and arduous special training and training, but they are also backed by powerful government agencies.Although the reporter's undercover has similar meaning and the same purpose as them, the method of using them is quite different, and the danger they bear is even greater.This method is entirely an interview method that journalists risk for the truth of the world and for the justice of the public.With the development of society, this kind of undercover title is not only used by the police to sneak into the lair of criminal gangs or crime scenes for investigation in order to better combat crimes, but is more used in the press.Undercover investigations by the press first began in the West. At the end of the 19th century, Leri Belle, a famous female reporter of the New York "Le Monde", learned that a lunatic asylum abused mental patients and violated personal rights. However, due to the strict control of the authorities, outsiders could not find out the truth.With the support of Pulitzer, she changed her previous interview method, pretended to be crazy and lived in it for several months, finally learned all the inside story, managed to escape, made the shady scene public, and under the pressure of strong public opinion , the government and the hospital had to rectify and improve the treatment of patients.This is the famous "pretending to be crazy interview" in the history of journalism.White American reporter John Griffin, in order to expose racial discrimination, used methods such as irradiating ultraviolet rays and makeup to make his skin look like black people, and then went deep into social life, observed and experienced the humiliating life of black Americans suffering from racial discrimination, and Based on this, he wrote the best-selling book "Black Like Me", which reflects the life of black people.

In the news history of our country, the use of covert interviews began to be implemented as early as the 1920s. Since the 1990s, the use of covert interviews in my country's press to monitor public opinion has been in the ascendant.Among them, the famous CCTV programs "Focus Interview", "News Investigation" and other columns are used more frequently: In October 1994, Focus Interview reporter Qiao pretended to be a "dumpster" and smugglers commented on "Dragon" and "Eggs", bargaining , secretly photographed the inside story of the illegal trade, and exposed it in time, so that the dinosaur egg fossils were protected in time, and prompted the local relevant departments to crack down on illegal elements in a timely manner; Businessmen and others sneaked into Nanjing Guanshengyuan Mooncake Factory as undercover agents, and unannounced visits to the other party’s illegal behavior of using expired mooncakes to make new mooncakes in order to gain illegal profits.CCTV reporters have changed from explicit interviews to implicit experiential interviews, including interview plans, interview procedures, and changes in interview objects. They have not only become a model for TV stations around the world to learn from, but also become national paper media, especially urban newspapers and newspapers that are popular among the public nowadays. A method often used by journalists of evening papers.Most of the news obtained by this method is exclusive, and it is a major news event that has attracted the attention of all walks of life, and has attracted the attention of ordinary people everywhere.Even so, "focus interviews" still face various difficulties in the process of exercising public opinion supervision, prompting them to increase equipment and undercover unannounced visits. At the end of 2003, Liang Jianzeng, the program’s producer, said in an interview with Southern Weekly: “The coping capacity of the relevant units is also increasing now. Often when journalists arrive at the local area, the local area has already received information, cordon off the scene of the incident, track down the whistleblower, and threaten Witnesses, the difficulty of journalists’ work is also increasing. So we are now also using some technological means in interviews, purchasing some new equipment, and increasing unannounced visits and undercover visits, in order to investigate the facts more clearly.”

Undercover unannounced visits have long been used by many journalists in domestic paper media, especially in the south.For example, Tu Qiao from Shenzhen, Luo Xia from Chongqing, and Yu Renfei from "New Express" are all well-known undercover reporters in China.However, after I joined Southern Metropolis Daily, I became one of the reporters who used this method the most at that time. This may have something to do with my former marines and my love for adventure. As we all know, covert interviews are risky, sometimes very risky.Because covert interviews are mostly used for exposing and critical reporting, some of the targets are powerful officials, some are rich and powerful, some are criminal suspects with bad records, and some are murderous and evil underworld gangs.In order to obtain the real situation, to get legal punishment for illegal acts faster, and to safeguard the fundamental interests of the country and the people, journalists risk their lives, disguise themselves, and go deep into the tiger's den, where they may be discovered at any time.Therefore, in order to make unannounced visits better completed, planning before the action is particularly important.As the saying goes, don't fight unprepared.After obtaining the source of news and analyzing the gold content of the news, unannounced reporters must make overall arrangements and careful arrangements for the interview process. Facing unpredictable situations and dangers that may arise at any time, it is best to formulate a plan before the interview. The interview plan, drawing up the interview objects, interview scope, interview key points and difficulties, and contingency measures, etc., to make reasonable arrangements, scientific plans, and preparedness.A producer of CCTV's "Weekly Quality Report" once said: One of the reasons why our interview success rate is relatively high is that before each interview, we must conduct all kinds of investigations and planning, and take all the situations we can think of into consideration. All designed in advance.

After all, unannounced interviews are different from the usual explicit interviews, which are all arranged and organized by the newspaper.Generally speaking, before the interview, the unannounced reporter will have the organization approve the selection of topics, the organization will approve the interview plan, report to the organization in a timely manner when encountering a critical situation, and report the interview situation in a timely manner after the event, so that various deviations can be corrected in time. The guidance of public opinion can greatly enable unannounced reporters to avoid interview risks and protect their personal and life safety.When I was in the Metropolis Daily, my colleagues and I uncovered the shady incidents through undercover unannounced visits: September 1997 Guangzhou Huacai Vocational School deception incident, Guangzhou Fangcun Huadi Mingzhu Hotel underground casino incident in March 1998, 1998 On April 1, 2010, the Guangzhou Wang Shengtang gang used pornography to rob, etc., especially the unannounced visit to Wang Shengtang. If the relevant leaders of the newspaper had not made many careful plans and arrangements in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous.Even so, I was hijacked by gangsters armed with knives and guns in this incident, and I almost became a ghost twice...

In fact, when I was a political and legal reporter for Southern Metropolis Daily, my undercover adventure career first started by exposing the fact that Guangzhou Huacai Vocational School used false advertisements to defraud people of money.After a week of in-depth interviews, I really started my undercover career. At about 11:30 am on August 31, 1997, a truck full of gas tanks caught fire and exploded near the gate of a battery factory staff dormitory in Haizhu District, Guangzhou. The accident killed 1 person and injured 3 others.After hearing the news, I immediately went to the scene with two colleagues to conduct in-depth interviews.In the messy scene of the explosion, the choking smoke has not yet disappeared. The truck that caused the accident was paralyzed in the middle of the road and turned into a pile of scrap metal. The driver of the truck that caused the accident has fled after the incident.Some of the gas tanks scattered on the road had been blown into rolled steel sheets, and the iron doors and windows on the first floor of nearby residents had been blown out of shape. Burnt wires and shattered glass were everywhere on the ground.Not long after we arrived at the scene, the last fire engine just left, and then several police cars came, and several traffic policemen immediately went into the investigation of the cause of the accident.

When we dragged our weary steps back to the newspaper office, night had already fallen.When it was time for dinner, as I had to rush the manuscript, I settled the matter with two packs of instant noodles as usual.It was already midnight when I returned to my rental house after work. Although I didn't get home until late at night the first day, I got out of bed early the next morning.As usual, I ate some breakfast on the side of the road in a hurry, then rode my bicycle to the newspaper office.At that time, I was full of energy and full of energy, and I was so passionate about journalism that even if I was busy until midnight every day, I would never tire of it, and I would be happy no matter how tired I was.In addition to sleeping, I run to the newspaper office early in the morning every day, contacting work, looking for news clues, and riding my broken bicycle to attack at any time.At that time, I was always smeared with rose-colored longing for the future and the future. I never had any predictions about the successive disasters and misfortunes, and I was happy all day long.

It was the hot summer season in the south at this time, before 9 o'clock in the morning, the scorching sun above the head scorched Yangcheng like a big stove, and it was extremely hot.I rode my bicycle to the gate of Nanfang Daily, and just as I was pushing the bike into the compound, two security guards standing at the gate shouted at me, “A group of students complained to the newspaper office, and they named You have been waiting in the reception room for more than an hour, so hurry up and take a look." As soon as I heard this, I quickly pushed the bicycle aside and went straight to the reception room next to the gate of the newspaper office.Go in and have a look, good guy!There were more than 30 people sitting inside waiting for me!Hearing that I am Shi Ye, the group of young students suddenly stood up and greeted me in unison: "Hello, Reporter Shi, we are students of Guangzhou Huacai Vocational School, and I have an important question for you. Reflect, I hope to get your help." "This is a private school, located near South China University. We arrived here after more than an hour's car ride."One of the tall students handed me a stack of complaint materials they had prepared long ago while talking, and said angrily: "Reporter Shi, the school is deceiving people! We paid so much money and learned nothing. Let alone all the previous promises made by the school.” Amidst their scrambling and angry words, and from the signed complaint letters and related bills they handed over, I learned the following: They are talented people. Most of the students in the tenth student class of the vocational school come from remote poverty-stricken areas such as Qingyuan, Yangjiang, and Zhanjiang, and a few are from other provinces.Not long ago, they learned from relevant newspapers and TV advertisements that the Huacai Vocational School sponsored by the Guangzhou Old Engineers Association has long cooperated with electronics factories in economically developed areas of Shenzhen, Zhuhai, and Dongguan to train high-tech radio maintenance personnel, and the students graduated After that, they can all be recommended to work in the factory, with a monthly salary of 900-3000 yuan.The attractive advertisement also stated that in order to reduce the financial burden of the students, the factory is responsible for paying the tuition fees for all the students who come to the school for training, and for some students who have not passed the test, they can continue their studies for free until they can work in the factory until.

Such attractive conditions naturally moved the hearts of these young people.A week ago, when this group of young men and women from all over the province went to an office on the second floor of the Huashi Science and Technology Building in Wushan, Guangzhou to sign up, several staff members gushed: "Our school is dedicated to the society. For the service, we don’t charge randomly like other schools. Our sponsor has a good relationship with the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, and is the designated school-running unit of the Guangzhou Municipal Education Department. To tell you the truth, our school is actually a joint school with the East China Normal University. It’s just that we don’t want to publicize it to the outside world. Please take a look, our school is located in China Normal University, and all the conditions are top-notch in Guangdong Province..."

Although a few office staff in the admissions office were spitting and exaggerating, some people still had doubts about it.When someone proposed to visit the school first, he was flatly rejected by the other party.Several male and female staff members said eloquently: Let me tell you the truth, because we have too many people here and the enrollment quota is limited, so it is not open to the outside world. Only those who have completed the registration procedures are eligible to enter our school. , if you don't want to, we won't force you.Anyway, our school does not have to worry about no one coming to study... Someone asked, if the school is not as good as the advertisement says, can we drop out?Several staff immediately replied unanimously: "Don't worry, we are a school run by a government department, and we are very trustworthy. If you think the conditions are not good and you can't learn real knowledge, the school can give you money at any time." money back." Seeing their promises, a few young people who were not deeply involved in the world no longer doubted anything, and hurriedly paid all the tuition fees to the designated bank in one go as required, and went through the relevant procedures for entering the school.However, when they asked the other party to issue a formal invoice, the other party said that the invoice was only available after entering the school, and now they can only issue a receipt.A lady also said: "Look at you people, you have no place to reimburse you even if you are given the invoice? Since you really came to study, don't bother about these trivial matters anymore. Isn't the receipt stamped with us? The school’s big red seal?” Then the other party loudly asked each student to sign the words “I agree to no refund” on it, otherwise the school’s road map will not be issued and the money will not be refunded.During the registration process, when a student asked whether a valid graduation certificate would be issued after graduation, the other party was vague and faltering. Because the tuition fees have been paid, they all had to swallow their anger.After getting a road map to the school and finally finding a school near an auto repair factory, I realized that the school is not on the campus of East China Normal University at all.In this unremarkable school, the teaching equipment is poor, and there is not even an ordinary computer. The so-called learning of multimedia computer maintenance is just talk on paper.After taking a few classes, they were surprised to find that the teachers here are of low quality, and sometimes even a simple question is full of mistakes and omissions, and some of them can't even speak Mandarin.According to former students, these teachers are not old engineers, most of them are hired from outside the school, and some of them are students who stayed in the previous school.The speed of teaching in this school makes it difficult for most students to adapt.What surprised the students even more was that when they wanted to contact the outside world, they found that the school did not have a specific address and zip code. Building Room 253".The school also stipulates that students only send letters once a week, and letters from outside can reach students only after a few days or even more than ten days.At the same time, this group of new students learned from various sources that the so-called "tuition fees paid by the factory" are only deducted from the students' wages, and the school did not sign any agreement with the students when they enrolled.This makes them realize that there is no guarantee of a job after graduation, and they can't learn any real skills here. A student surnamed Huang told me that there were nearly 70 students in their group of 100 six-month classes. When they registered on July 15, each person paid 6,358 yuan for various fees. Did not learn.A few days ago, dozens of their students jointly requested the school to refund the money, but the school refused for various reasons.A certain person in charge of the school raised his hands in public and threatened the students who wanted to drop out: "If anyone asks for a refund again, we will ask the school security to send them to the police station and lock them up!" After being deceived, the attitude of the school personnel was so bad that several students had to leave the school.Because they had no money to go home, they had to go to the suburbs of Guangzhou to work, and some even lived on the streets.A few students who often read newspapers decided to seek help from the news media when they were desperate, hoping that the reporters could expose the deceptive shady scene of this Huacai school and recover their tuition fees.Among the many newspapers, they chose Southern Metropolis Daily, and specifically approached me for help. These haggard-looking students said angrily that they were going to strike collectively next week, strongly demanding the school's refund and asking the school to give a clear answer. I immediately set out to investigate this.It was found that the complaints of the students were basically true.At the same time, the misdeeds of this Huacai vocational school seem to be far more than these.That night, based on the interview, I wrote a report of nearly 3,000 words and sent it to the editorial department.After the editorial department saw my exclusive report, it was supposed to be on the front page. However, because the manuscript had already been finalized, and it was not delivered until nearly 9 o'clock at night, it decided to put it on the fourth edition of the Guangdong News section. . The editor in charge of the fourth edition at that time was Cui Xianghong.Cui Xianghong was sent to Nanfang Metropolis Daily from Nanfang Daily. She is of medium build, peaceful in appearance, and looks like a Buddha statue. When I was a reporter for Metropolis Daily, many of the news reports I wrote that aroused great influence in the society at that time were all of them. She launched the "wedding dress" after she worked hard behind the scenes, such as "Shaoguan Rape and Selling Flower Girl Case", "Jinyan Primary School Female Teacher Slaps Pupils with a Whip", "Late Night Rounds Scared Migrant Girls to Death" and so on.She, Xia Yitao, Zhuang Shenzhi, Li Duojue, etc. are editors with very high editorial level and comprehensive quality in the city newspaper.Among them, Li Duojue is very talented and can write good articles.After Cui Xianghong saw my article, she immediately decided to withdraw the headlines she had edited and publish my exclusive news.After planning, we decided to continue to report on this matter. The next day, I went to Huacai Vocational School to conduct undercover visits to the shady scene, and then announced the truth to the public.Cui Xianghong said that every day, the fourth edition will leave a special page to report and track the progress of this matter until the school and relevant authorities have a reply on this matter. The next day, which happened to be September 1st, is the day schools across the country start school.This day should have been a happy day for most of the students. However, for dozens of students in the 10th student class of Huacai Vocational School, they were not happy at all.This day, for me as a reporter, is also a day with deep memories, because early in the morning, the headline of the fourth page of Southern Metropolis Daily was titled "Student Complaints: Guangzhou Huacai Vocational School Advertisements Are False". My article was published in large format.As soon as the report came out, it immediately attracted the attention of readers.Holding a newspaper that smelled of ink in my hand, I squeezed into the crowded bus and rushed to the direction of China Normal University. While reading the newspaper, I was thinking about how to get into Huacai School.Along the way, I also analyzed the dangerous situations that may arise at any time, and thought about the relevant countermeasures. In fact, I rushed to the admissions office here to learn about the situation as early as the afternoon of the previous day, but because it was too late at that time and I was not fully prepared, I didn't rush in.Generally speaking, most of us journalists first have unannounced visits before we report on them in newspapers, but today we first have newspaper reports and then conduct unannounced visits. Therefore, it is not only difficult, but also more dangerous.Along the way, I kept thinking in my heart: If I go in at this time today, will they have seen my report and take extra precautions?What kind of school is this Huacai Vocational School?How did the students fare in the school?I can only find out if I sneak into the school. In order to cooperate with my interview, the interview department specially sent photographer Li Xiangxin to accompany me. At 10:20, we met at the gate of China Normal University.Under the scorching sun, we came to Room 253, Huashi Science and Technology Building, Wushan Road, located at the west gate of South China Normal University.As soon as I walked in, a young man in his mid-twenties wearing glasses looked at us with vigilant eyes, and asked me what I was doing and who I was looking for here.I ignored him, and just pretended to be strange and said to myself: "It's weird, didn't the advertisements in those newspapers say that the Admissions Office is this place, why can't I match the number, did I go wrong." , I deliberately pretended to quit.The young man exchanged glances with a young woman inside, and quickly stopped me who was about to go out and said, "You must be here to sign up, right? That's right, we are the Admissions Office of Huacai Vocational School... "Hey, so I didn't go to the wrong place? I'm sorry, I always thought that the Admissions Office was in China Normal University?" After some accusations, the other party finally relaxed their vigilance, and immediately changed into a smiling face Come to meet me, so I had the following conversation with the young man just now: Reporter: Is your school located in China Normal University? A: We used to be there, but now we have moved to a new location nearby due to the recent relocation of the teaching building. Reporter: Why is there no specific name of your school in the advertisement? A: Don't you know it as soon as you hear it? Reporter: Can you give me an "Admission Brochure" or an introduction to the school? I want to read it first. Answer: (impatiently) We don't have any "recruitment brochures" here, isn't the specific content already published in the advertisement?Why is it still so troublesome?If you want to be our student, please sign up now. Reporter: If I don't want to sign up for study, what am I doing here so far away?Now there are too many schools of all kinds in Guangzhou, and there are also many scammers. We all come from the countryside and bring hard-earned money. Can we not ask clearly? Although I did not pay the tuition fees, I still gained their trust; although they were full of displeasure, they finally gave me a piece of information about the school. Leaving the "Admission Office", I met Li Xiangxin outside, then crossed the road, walked nearly 200 meters, and found the school headquarters, which was located in the "nearby" school site, about 3 kilometers away from the "Admission Office". This is a very ordinary 3-storey building. The door below is not locked. In order to prevent the other party from seeing the flaw, I asked Li Xiangxin to wait outside and decided to go in first. If there is any new situation, I will send a signal to him. .Li Xiangxin looked at the heavily guarded big iron gate of the school in front of him, and worriedly told me again and again: You must be more careful, and if there is any situation, go out quickly, and I will take you out of here with a motorcycle.I nodded gratefully, and said to him: "Don't worry, I will be more vigilant." I deliberately raised the large stack of admissions materials in my hand, explained my intention to the two security guards at the gate, and left into the school gate.I saw a dormitory on the first floor, but it looked very dark inside, and the kitchen floor was full of sewage.When I walked up to the second floor, I found that the big iron gate here was pulled shut with a bang, and a uniformed security guard with a swollen face and a baton in his hand shouted at me and asked, "Who are you? What's the matter here? Take me here." Show me your ID card!" I forced a smile on my face, and while answering his words with a smile, I said to him: "My fellow, I am a veteran. I really want to learn a skill and find a good job. Hehe, After reading newspaper and TV advertisements, I came here to learn high-tech radio repair technology..." My words made the security guard's attitude much better, but he still asked to show his ID card and was allowed to enter after registration. . After I walked up to the second floor, a middle-aged man who claimed to be Director Chen and wore myopia glasses walked in.When Chen heard my reason for coming and learned that I had several friends who wanted to come to the school for internship, he was so happy that he gave up his seat again and again, and pointed to the more than ten red pennants hanging high on the wall of the office, talking endlessly. According to the introduction, the talents cultivated by the school have spread all over Guangdong Province, and the school has received rave reviews. The school plans to expand its scale and recruit students from urban and rural areas across the country.Director Chen then took out a school-running certificate with the red official seal of "Guangzhou Education Commission Social Power School-running Office" and said: "We are sponsored by the Guangzhou Old Engineers Association. We are run by social groups and have certain authority. We Definitely not those dubious small schools..." Then, Director Chen enthusiastically pulled me to sit down again, insisting that I watch the information video about the school right now, and he smiled and opened the button in this office On a dusty color TV in the northwest corner, the ribbon-cutting scene of the school's enthusiastic opening of new students appeared on the screen.I pretended to appreciate it, and watched the TV with great interest and patience for nearly ten minutes.Then, I deliberately pointed to the advertisement in the newspaper and had the following conversation with Chen. Reporter: After reading so many things, I feel that this school is still good, but what makes me strange is, why can’t I find the specific address and name of the school in these advertisements?Doesn't this make it difficult for those of us who want to learn to find a destination? Director Chen: This one, this one, hehe, it’s better to keep it a secret.Maybe you don't know, our school is famous, and there are too many people studying all over the country, in case they flock to it, it will be difficult to handle. Reporter: (pretentiously): More students are a good thing; more students means more tuition fees, so the school’s income will increase, right? Director Chen: We rely on social forces to run the school, and we charge some fees appropriately, but our purpose is to send more talents with special skills to the society and reduce the burden on the country, so we are not like other schools that only care about money rather than focusing on the quality of learning. Reporter: Director Chen, your school advertised that all the students who come to our school for training will be paid by the factory. It makes me a little confused, can you explain? Director Chen: (somewhat unhappy): You seem to be a smart person, why don't you understand such a simple truth?Well, after our students graduate, there are two main ways to arrange employment: one is that the school runs its own factory and arranges employment for the students; the other is that the school recommends employment to electronics factories in various places in Guangdong Province based on the students' achievements and specialties. And the salaries of the students who go out after completing their studies in our school are very good... Reporter: I also heard that the school-run factory in the school is good. Now, may I ask Director Chen to take me to the school-run factory near you to have a look? Director Chen: (immediately downcast): What are you in a hurry for? You are not a student of our school now—if you are not a student of our school, we generally don’t allow people to visit easily. This is also our commercial secret. Besides, most of our school-run factories are located in Shenzhen and Zhuhai Special Economic Zones, and mainly cooperate with foreign businessmen. Guangzhou does not currently have any.However, we plan to set up a factory in the second half of the year. Reporter: Director Chen, when I came in just now, I heard people say that there are no electric fans in the dormitory of the students, and that the school does not allow the students to buy electric fans themselves. How can I stand this hot day! Director Chen: Most of our students come from all corners of the country, and they come together to learn a skill well.Everyone is mainly here to learn, and the conditions are poor, so they should be able to overcome them, and this can train people even more.As the saying goes, if you don't endure hardships, it is difficult to become a master.Thinking about how hard it was during the Long March of the Red Army, how could they have electric fans?Didn't they finally defeat the enemy by enduring hardships?Besides, in our dormitory, there are upper and lower iron frame beds, and it is easy to cause danger when installing ceiling fans. Seeing that I still wanted to ask something, Director Chen pointed to a security guard behind me and made a sneaky look, and then hurried away on the grounds that there was something trivial first. Seeing that no one was following me, I quickly dragged one of the students surnamed Liu to the dormitory behind the classroom.After sneaking in, I saw 9 pairs of two-story loft beds densely packed in a room of about 25 square meters, with 18 people living in it. There was no electric fan or other plugs in the room.Two students who had gone to the newspaper office to complain to me, when they saw me appearing in front of them, they were both excited and happy, and immediately came forward to hold my hands.Several students said that the school does not allow them to buy electric fans on such a hot day.There are only two small windows in this stuffy room, and it is blocked by a high-rise building opposite, so it is really airtight.Several practitioners said that the weather was too hot during this period, and several practitioners fell ill due to heatstroke.As a result, some students insisted on withdrawing from school, but were rejected by the school. Several students who returned home did not get any refund from the school. Despite our low voice, we were spotted.A few minutes later, Director Chen, accompanied by two security guards, slammed the door open, stared at me covetously, changed his enthusiasm and gentleness just now, pointed at my nose and screamed: "Oh, I really thought you were a student, but I didn’t expect you to come here to make trouble! Let me ask you, what exactly are you here for? What purpose do you want to achieve? Okay, don’t tell me? If you don’t tell me, just wait and see. I want to see if you can walk out of our gate today!" Afterwards, Director Chen asked the two security guards to stop me, turned around and yelled and cursed at the students, and managed to disperse the students, panting heavily. Annoyed, he quickly grabbed my hands with a security guard behind him, and "invited" me to the office where the video was played just now, pushing and pulling me.I pretended to be aggrieved, and asked angrily, "If I didn't want to come here to study, I wouldn't have come to your place! I didn't expect you to treat the students who came to study like this. I see who else will come here in the future." Here..." But they ignored me and pushed me inside and wouldn't let me out. Just as I was thinking about countermeasures, there was sudden noise from students outside.原来是几个认识我的学员见保安对我动粗，担心我受到伤害，于是赶紧联合其他的上百名学员一起提出抗议，楼上楼下的众多学员齐声呼应，抗议的声音震天响，使猝不及防的陈主任和保安慌了神，他们马上冲出去对付学生。如果这个时候我趁机跑出门，自然是安然无恙，但这样一来，就更会令校方产生怀疑，我的采访目的就会半途而废。 看到陈主任和保安马上冲下楼驱赶学生，为了目睹有关情况，我也趁机离开办公室，站在楼道上观看陈主任与那群年轻人们打口仗。 我正欲走出校门时，突然后面“呼啦”又追上来五六十名学生，他们当中有几个人大声叫喊着：“石记者，你不要走，我们还有许多证据要给你看呢！”守在大门口的两个保安见状根本不敢向前阻拦，只好眼睁睁地看着我们走出大门。 这些群情激愤的学员，纷纷向我呈上各自签名的投诉书和联名签字信。一个瘦个子学员背来一大包该校发放的所谓教材。这些印刷粗糙、字迹模糊的教材，有北京版、广州版、深圳版的，还有上海版的，在发黄的封面上一律标有“内部教材，严禁外传”字样。我随手翻了翻，一本只有13页红的教材，竟标价18元，最厚的教材达35元一本。同时，我还从几名学员手中拿到一份华才职校的收费标准，现摘录如下：《电视机看的方法，维修技巧》上中下册，共93元， 一本只不过51页的《收音机维修技巧》竟收费共30元；3个月班各种费用加起来共有3391元/期；6个月班收实习、书籍、校务、证书、水电、学位、住宿费、床上用品押金等总共有6758元…… 就在我和李向新离开华才职校时，我看到，那位陈主任和五六名手持警棍的保安正吆喝着把那些聚集在门外的学员们往里赶，想必此时他们已知道了我的真实身份，看到门外还有我的一位同伙，又看到这么名学员都聚在这儿，只好悻悻地眼睁睁地看着我们离去了。 更令校方和这位陈主任没有想到的是，就在第二天，我这位“不速之客”和同事又一次光临该校，而且还与他们面对面的交了一次锋。
