Chapter 1034: Entering the Land of the Two Poles (10)
It was precisely because of his persistence that he became the most authoritative reporter in the industry in his thirties.
Everyone in this circle knew how he got the burn on his leg.
Ten years ago, a famous shopping mall in Xuandu City caught fire, initially believed to have been caused by a bomb placed by criminals. Upon hearing the news, Xu Hua rushed out without a second thought, camera in hand.
At that moment, as he was preparing to leave with the latest information, a rescued person beside him burst into tears. It turned out that her elderly mother had been separated from her during the fire and had disappeared without a trace!
The firefighters and the dispatched riot police had already rushed into the blaze, engaged in a life-and-death struggle, with absolutely no opportunity to inform them to look for the elderly mother.
At that point, Xu Hua handed his camera to a colleague, picked up a bucket of water, poured it over himself, and charged in.
In the end, Xu Hua rescued the old lady, but his right lower leg was severely burned, and it took a full six months to fully recover.
However, though his body recovered, the skin on his lower leg was ruined. Xu Hua refused help from the old lady’s family and donations from the company, saying in his words, what use was it for a grown man to have such tender skin.
Since then, Xu Hua has earned the respect of everyone in the industry.
He is a dedicated and conscientious reporter!
