At noon, the captain of the search team, Wang Chailong, washed himself clean in the hotel, changed into a new short-sleeved shirt, and prepared to be interviewed.
In fact, after the rescue mission was over, Captain Wang Chailong hoped that he could take a bath and have a good night's sleep at home.
When he opened his eyes, he would eat the hot and sour ice noodles made by his wife.
He had not been home for six days. During these six days, it was difficult to even find the time to call home and ask about his well-being.
If he was not resting, he was discussing the search plan.
However, the county attached great importance to this search operation. As soon as the rescue work was over, the deputy county head, who was in charge of the coordination and command of the entire search operation, found him and said that dozens of media outlets wanted to interview him.
"I don't want to go. I just want to sleep." Wang Chailong did not like this kind of life in front of cameras. He had also accepted interviews from reporters during previous search operations.
Of course, he did not have stage fright. He just felt that it was meaningless. He was not a star. What could he do on TV?
"Go, go, go. This time is different from the past. Among the media outlets who want to interview you, there are seven or eight satellite TV stations. Even the reporters from Hua Xia News Channel are on the list. Reporters from ordinary websites are not qualified. "
The deputy county head blocked the door of Captain Wang Chailong's hotel room. He looked like he would not leave until he went. "This time, not a single college student was rescued. Although the credit goes to Monster Industries, Anya County also worked hard."
"Monster Industries is a big company. They don't care about interviews from satellite TV stations."
"We care!"
The deputy county head stood by the door and kept telling the truth. "Look at the disappearance of the college students. Some people on the Internet are scolding our scenic area for not doing enough safety work."
"These comments will definitely have a negative impact on our scenic area. You also know that Anya County is in this remote mountain. Other than the scenic area, there is nothing else to show."
"Even if it is to repair the reputation of our scenic area, you have to take the interviews one by one."
"It's those college students who ran around by themselves." Captain Wang Chailong waved his hand. "They have legs. No matter how good the scenic area's safety work is, we can't send people to follow all the tourists."
"That's the truth, but someone has to say it. Only then can the people understand, right?"
"If we don't say it now while it's still popular, who will be willing to listen in the future?"
Wang Chailong shook his head. "But the main force of the rescue is Monster Industries. Why would I accept an interview?"
"That's only if the Monster Industries wants these interviews!"
"In front of their company's entrance, there are so many reporters from the world's top television stations, such as BBC, ABC, NBC, and so on."
Seeing that Wang Chailong's rejection was not so obvious, the deputy county magistrate patted him on the shoulder with a smile and whispered, "Besides, showing your face more in the heavyweight media is also good for your personal development, right?"
"That's true. The scenic spot really needs someone to stand up and save its reputation." Wang Chailong could only reluctantly accept the task.
The interview room was set up in the conference room on the third floor of the hotel. Captain Wang Chailong looked in the mirror, wiped his leather shoes, and then pushed the door open.
Wang Chailong was fiddled with by the program crew for an entire hour while doing his hair, makeup, and looking at the host's question list.
This was also the reason why he didn't like to be interviewed. If he sat in front of the camera without makeup, his face would be greasy as if he had a layer of grease on it.
For the filming effect, it was necessary to put on some powder and blush on the face.
Since the makeup was done, then the hairstyle must be done and the eyebrows must be trimmed.
As a man, Wang Chailong really couldn't adapt to this kind of operation.
…
The first place to grab the interview was Hua Xia's official news channel.
If the interview went well, the program would be broadcasted on the social monitor the next day.
The social monitor program was a storytelling program that the public liked to watch. It broadcasted the current eye-catching social events and ordinary heroes that were not known by many people. The program broadcasted the next day was often recorded a week in advance.
The interview with Captain Wang Chailong, to be broadcasted the next day, had to be pushed to the back of the scheduled program. One could imagine how much attention was paid to the disappearance of the college student this time.
While reading the draft, the young staff kept comforting Wang Chailong, telling him not to be nervous and not to blink frequently in front of the camera.
Wang Chailong smiled and thought to himself, "When I saved people for the first time in 1992 and appeared in the newspaper, maybe you were still waiting in line to be reincarnated."
When Wang Chailong walked into the interview room, the female host with slightly tanned skin was already sitting on the temporarily arranged sofa.
Wang Chailong greeted her warmly and nodded to the cameraman. He directly said that there was no need for rehearsals and that they would go straight to the shooting.
The cameraman was overjoyed, thinking that he had met a veteran.
The camera was turned on, and Wang Chailong pushed the door back in. He greeted the host again and sat on the sofa opposite her.
The host's opening remarks and the character story that she was going to tell today had already been recorded separately.
Therefore, the host directly went into the character interview segment. She first smiled at the camera and said, "Hello audience, I would like to introduce a guest for this episode."
"If you have been following the news recently, I think you must be familiar with the disappearance of nine college students in the geological scenic area of Anya County in Chuan Province."
"Now, we would like to invite the leader of the search team who participated in the entire rescue process, Mr. Wang Chailong."
"If you want a title for our next topic, I would like to call it 'The Thrilling Sixth Day'."
"Now, let's let the captain, Mr. Wang Chailong, take us into the thrilling sixth day and the torturous first five days."
"Captain Wang, before that, I would like to ask, how many times have you led a team into the mountains to search for missing people?"
Wang Chailong raised his head and thought for a moment. "This should be the 23rd time."
The host exclaimed at the right time, saying that there were so many missing people in the Anya Scenic Area.
"These happened in the mountains outside the scenic area." Wang Chailong sighed and said, "The scenic area of Anya Scenic Area has been developed, but it only occupies half of the area of the entire geological park. Outside the scenic area, there are mountaineering and camping enthusiasts who sneak around the scenic area management staff every year. "
"Most of these missing people are reported by friends and family members. As soon as they report the case, they verify the situation and confirm that the people are indeed missing in the mountains. They then lead a team into the mountains to rescue them. "
The host asked again, "Can you tell me about some of these cases that left a deep impression on you, or examples of search team members in danger?"
There were too many, so Wang Chailong gave a few examples without hesitation.
Among them, a team member was bitten by a poisonous snake, and a trapped person's life was hanging by a thread. They could only climb down the cliff with their bare hands to rescue them before they could protect them in time.
As they chatted, the topic naturally turned to the nine missing university students.
Wang Chailong said that this search for the university students was the most difficult and bizarre rescue operation he had ever participated in.
From the moment they disappeared, the heavy rain in the scenic area seemed to have never stopped.
It rained several times a day. When the rain stopped, the entire mountain was misty, and the visibility was basically only a few hundred meters.
If they were not familiar with the terrain and had professional positioning tools in their hands, they would have been lost in the mountains, let alone looking for the university students.
Then, Wang Chailong said a few things that no one knew about the search.
In fact, on the third day of the search, the small aircraft supported by Monster Industries was closest to the mountain where the group of trapped university students was. It was only a mountain away.
At that time, there was a local search team member who was familiar with the terrain sitting in the co-pilot seat. However, because the group of university students was trapped inside the cave, they could not find any clues from outside.
The host asked at the right time, "Then how did they get trapped in the cave?"
It was very strange and very coincidental to explain the reason for being trapped.
The interview also entered the most important sixth day.
This day was the day the university students faced a fork in the road of death. It was also the day many volunteers who came from outside gave up on the search.
Talking about this thrilling day, Wang Chailong scratched his head in embarrassment, his face slightly red.
Because this day was the day Monster Industries took over the search operation.
It was also the most comfortable day for Wang Chailong and the other team members.
The host asked, "Captain Wang, you participated in the entire search process of Monster Industries. Can you tell us how Monster Industries found these students? What did you do on the Banshee aircraft at that time? "
"Cough cough ~"
"I had a very rich breakfast on the aircraft, and then I had a cup of tea with the manager of Monster Industries."
"The students were found before I finished drinking the tea."
"Drink … Drink tea?" The host was stunned. This answer was beyond her expectations.
Shouldn't it be a race against time, a tense and busy atmosphere of imminent peril?
"Yes, drink tea." Wang Chailong had a pleasant aftertaste. "The tea was very fragrant. It was the most fragrant tea I've ever had in my life."
"Monster Industries is amazing. They didn't even need an observer to find these university students."
"That kind of unmanned aerial vehicle with electronic equipment swept into the mountains and swept the students out."
"Ah ~"
"What electronic equipment is so advanced?"
