How Deep Is The Water In Shanghai РChai Jing (柴静)

 Pic Chinesenightclub EastSouthWestNorth translated an interesting post from Chai Jing’s blog. “Chai Jing is a famous CCTV investigative reporter, but you have to decide whether this blog post is factual or fictional.

I was out working in the field twice in a row. How is everyone? Shanghai is an eyeful, especially the people.

Over the past couple of days, I’ve been meeting with a boss. A man with a square head and big ears, holding a big wallet bag. He mumbles somewhat. As soon as he starts talking, his assistant interjects: “Our boss is a peasant. His speech is unclear.” The boss does not seem to mind as he just nods his head and listens.

But he does not know how to read them. He has hired retirees from various fields to give him advice. They are available upon a telephone call.

He was very interested in our current undercover investigation. He said: “Why don’t you work for me? You can start a detective agency and get me some commercial secrets. Annual salary of 500,000 RMB.” [Full Text]
