Lux's Magic Penetration Rod
Chapter 163 【0160】 Foundation and old acquaintances
Because there was still work to be done, even though Caitlin was very concerned about the outcome, she was not able to hear the parliamentary speech in person.
Fortunately, according to the mother who listened to the speech, the speech was very successful - even Congressman Philos shed tears of sympathy when he heard about the miserable situation of the workers.
This news greatly encouraged Caitlin. For the first time, she clearly felt that her work was paying off.
Although this happened with the help of the family... it is still worthy of celebration!
However, when the Piltover Daily News came out the next day, Caitlin discovered that the solution to the entire incident seemed completely different from what she had imagined.
There is no minimum wage limit.
There is no workers' compensation insurance.
There is no improvement in the working environment.
Instead, it was a "Workers' Charitable Foundation" "committed to improving the working conditions of Piltover workers."
This news made Caitlin frown subconsciously.
The Charitable Foundation... the civilians of Piltover may regard it as a well-intentioned organization, but Caitlin knows its true nature.
Let's put it this way, nine out of ten of the annoying balls Caitlin attended were titled "Charity Balls."
But every time, only Caitlin herself actually donated real money.
As for other participants, some of them put out artworks for auction, and some put out some souvenirs to sell - in theory, the funds obtained will be used for charity, but the "operating costs" of the foundation will be excluded. , how much money can really be used where it should be used...
Anyway, since reading the accounts, Caitlin has stopped donating money.
What's even more ironic is that because the auction prices of artworks are recorded, this kind of party often also plays the role of raising the status of artists.
All in all, it is a charity ball that has everything except charity.
Therefore, when Caitlin wrote her speech, she did not mention charity. She hoped to solve the problem through more effective means!
Confused, Caitlin found her mother at night and asked her about the content of her speech - and the result was naturally the same as her speech.
So, the parliament is unwilling to issue regulations, but chooses to use this method?
Caitlin blinked, slightly slumped.
However, she quickly cheered up.
No matter how high the operation and management fees of this workers’ charity foundation are, it can at least have a certain effect!
Even if things are not resolved satisfactorily, there is progress!
Even if only three of the ten gold hex donations are used for workers... at least it is a good result!
Thinking this way, Caitlin finally felt a lot better.
……………………
The next day, according to the time previously agreed with Wei, Caitlin discussed the scope of the interview on the elevator regarding the list of certified reporters in Zaun and Piltover.
Wei, who has always looked down on Picheng guys, insists on registering all journalists and reviewing their manuscripts.
"This is to prevent you from wantonly smearing!" Facing Caitlin, Wei was confident, "You Piltover reporters are always trying to make a big news for the sake of newspaper sales. We must preserve the information. The right to review manuscripts!”
It was really difficult for Caitlin to find a way to refute Wei's request.
The Piltover reporter was caught making up nonsense before, which was so embarrassing that Caitlin lost some confidence when speaking.
However, fortunately, her previous busyness was not in vain - she took a photo of today's Piltover Daily in front of Wei.
"The reporters in Zaun should also be more honest and stop thinking about running around in Piltover and causing trouble for Piltover!" Caitlin said with a raised eyebrow, "We can solve Piltover's own problems ourselves. !”
Wei glanced at the headline in the newspaper, "Workers Charitable Foundation Established, Piltover Workers' Life Better". She was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't hold it back and laughed directly.
"What are you laughing at?"
"You Pi City people... Pi City people are really good at fooling people!"
"?"
"Our reporter Yolfo V. Cardoras reports for you. Isn't this the bastard who made up the gossip about Ms. Lenata?" Wei's disdain was beyond words, "What was his previous newspaper... …Piltover Culture Weekly? Now it’s all gone to Piltover Daily?”
Caitlin froze.
Because she was too concerned about the subsequent development of this matter, Caitlin focused on the issues about the charitable foundation and did not pay attention to the reporter's questions.
So, when Vi directly pointed out that this reporter was the guy who made up the gossip about Lenata, Caitlin was completely confused.
"A guy who was caught making up fake news can still be promoted, from a tabloid to the Piltover Daily... tsk tsk tsk." Vi, who had seized the opportunity, obviously would not give up any opportunity to ridicule the people of Piltover, "I suddenly felt , just reviewing press releases is not enough, maybe we can change the way, interview our own, how about exchanging interview transcripts?"
Caitlin said nothing.
She blushed fiercely and was restless.
In the end, Caitlin and Vi didn't reach any consensus - Vi stepped out of the elevator satisfied and in high spirits; while Caitlin seemed to be dejected as if all her energy had been sucked out.
After finally waiting until the end of today's experiment time, Caitlin waited patiently for everyone to register and leave, and then left the laboratory as if running away.
She has many questions.
……………………
Returning to the Giraman family's manor, she saw three guests that she never expected.
Jess.
Mel.
and...Jolfo V. Cardoras.
Caitlin greeted Jace and Mel in surprise, then narrowed her eyes and looked at Jolfo who was smiling.
"Why are you here?" Caitlin gritted her teeth, "Who invited you here?"
"It's me." Jace blinked and took the initiative to come to Caitlin's side. "I heard Yolfo say that there is some misunderstanding between you..."
"This is not a misunderstanding." Caitlin shook her head, "When the joint cooperation started, this guy went to Zaun for an interview, but he ended up fabricating gossip and was caught by the Zaun people."
It seemed that this was the first time Jace had heard about this. He turned around and looked at Jolfo with a surprised expression on his face.
"That's not what you told me." Jess quickly became serious, "Interviews are not welcome, and gossip is not welcome. These are two different things."
"Mr. Tallis, I promise, this is indeed a misunderstanding." Yolfo spread his hands and showed a helpless look, "You know all my past reports - I am not someone who likes to make up lies. People who make money from news, otherwise when Hex Technology was just born, Zaun exploded, and everyone was full of distrust of it, I would not have been able to conduct three consecutive interviews with you..."
Karya’s Little Classroom·Jes’s Exclusive Interview:
After the Zaun bombing, Jolfo did organize three exclusive interviews with Jace and Hex Technology - these three interviews provided Jace with a lot of prestige, and also eliminated the relationship between him and Hex Technology to a certain extent. The cacophony of Mel being in love.
There will be an extra update tonight.
