那是一个不平常的日子，江北日报社党组下发一份红头文件，文件内容是任命东启聪同志为江北日报社驻江口市记者站站长，尽管记者站站长只是正科级，但它的意义却重大，在众多实力相当的年轻人中，从此东启聪算是“出线”了。坐上记者站站长这把交椅，就意味着他进入了升迁的轨道，虽然还只相当于行政级别中最底层的科级，但对东启聪来说，已很满足了，他知道“千里之行，始于足下”的道理，自己终于迈出了第一步。而且，在江北日报社派出的二十个记者站中，江口市记者站尤为重要和显眼。江口市是江北省的首府，全省政治、经济、文化的中心，能坐镇这个中心，可谓眼观六路，耳听八方，为下一步的发展开拓出广阔的空间。东启聪踌躇满志。艾副市长的消息果然灵通，是在他透露给女儿思思那个信息不久以后，江北日报社就发出了一个文件，拟将全省二十个驻地市记者站站长晋升为副处级。文件发出之后，开始了对现任站长的考察。很幸运，东启聪顺利地通过了考察关，坐上了副处级记者站站长的交椅。与东启聪晋级同步进行的是，他与艾副市长的千金艾思思的婚礼。对东启聪来说，真是好事成双，他不仅陶醉在级别晋升后的喜悦中，同时又痴醉地向往着盛大婚礼的体面风光……(Itwasnotanormalday,JiangbeiDailyNewspaperOfficePartygroupissuedanofficialdocument,thecontentofthedocumentwastoappointDongQicongastheagentofthereporterstationofJiangbeiDailyNewspaperOfficeinJiangkoucity,althoughthereporterstationwasthesectionlevel,itssignificancewasgreat,amongmanyyoungmenofequalstrength,DongQicongwasregardedto“qualifyforthenextround”.Sittingonthechairoftheagentofthereporterstationmeantthathehadenteredthepathofpromotion,althoughitwasonlythelowestrankoftheadministrativelevel,itwasverysatisfyingtoDongQicong,Heknewthetruththat“ajourneyofathousandmilesbeginswithasinglestep”andhefinallytookthefirststep.Moreover,Jiangkou’sreporterstationwasparticularlyimportantandprominentamongthetwentyreporterstationssentbyJiangbeiDailyNewspaperOffice.JiangkoucitywasthecapitalofJiangbeiprovince,thecenterofpolitics,economyandculture,sittinginthiscentercouldbeobservantandalert,openingupawidespaceforfurtherdevelopment.DongQicongwasverycomplacent.ThedeputymayorAi’smessagewaswellinformed,anditwasnotlongbeforeherevealedtohisdaughterthatadocumentwasissuedbyJiangbeiDailyNewspaperOffice,whichplannedtopromotetheagentsofthereporterstationsoftwentyresidentcitiesoftheprovincetothedeputylevel.Afterthedocumentwasissued,areviewofthecurrentstationagentbegan.Fortunately,hesuccessfullypassedtheinspectionandbecamethedeputyagentofthereporterstation.ItwasinsyncwithDongQicong’spromotionthathewasmarriedtothedaughterofthedeputymayorAi,AiSisi.ForDongQicong,theywerethegoodthingsinpairs,hewasnotonlyintoxicatedwiththejoyofrankpromotion,buthewasalsoinfatuatedwiththeprestigeofagrandwedding......)...
