Approaching the Spring Festival, people working in Yanjing City have returned to their hometowns, but there are also a group of people who go the opposite way and rush to Beijing at this time, which is called "reporting work". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In order to keep a low profile, Xia Minghe, who is a member of the Dongjiang Provincial team, and his comrades didn't even bring their secretaries, so they let Lu Xiaosong buy two high-speed rail tickets, and didn't let anyone be alarmed. You must know that it is not easy to buy a high-speed rail ticket to Yanjing at this time, but it doesn't matter, the stationmaster of Jinling Station is his father's classmate, and this little favor is still no problem.

"Komatsu, have you brought everything with you?" Xia Mingcheng does not smoke, which is extremely rare among high-ranking officials in China. It is common practice for Chinese officialdom to greet each other and send a cigarette, but the door to the cigarette at what price is very big, and he does not smoke next to the leader, so he has a lot less unnecessary entertainment, he is not a group or a party, and his status is transcendent.

"Bring it all, four cans of pickles, the old man can really work hard." Lu Xiaosong didn't dare to say it, but he was complaining in his heart, such a heavy thing, no wonder you want to pull me. The cabbage radish planted by Xia Lao himself, and then pickled into pickles by himself, and finally sealed in a clay pot with his own hands, this intention alone is worth a thousand gold. Now he wants to take four jars of pickles as gifts, and he wants his second son to send them to the capital in person, and the identity of the recipient seems to be about to come out.

"Haha, you're going to have to cover that thing for me, if it leaks, we're going to be kicked off the train." Of course, Xia Mingcheng will not bring biological and chemical weapons to the high-speed rail, but in addition to cabbage, radish and cowpea, there is also a can of stinky pickles in the four clay pots.

"Do you know who I'm going to take you to?"

"Should know."

"Nervous?"

"I said no, do you believe it?"

"Hahaha, no wonder the old man said that you kid is interesting. You're already good, and if I were your age, I'd have jumped off the train in fear to meet these two. ”

"Uncle Xia, you are too modest."

"Hehe, don't you believe it? I have been a secretary for so many years, and if something goes wrong in my business, there is still a way to make up for it. But if something goes wrong in a private matter, not only will we fail to live up to the trust we have in the face, but the consequences may be even more serious. ”

"And you're going to take me with you? What did I say? Lu Xiaosong finally couldn't help complaining, didn't he just complain a few words in front of Xia Lao, it was a matter of course for the old man to lose his temper at his son, why did you take me with you? Besides, what did I say when I met with the leader? Don't look at yourself now worth hundreds of millions, but in the eyes of their group of people, they are just ants, can't they say how many stars they have and how many models they have slept with?

What Lu Xiaosong didn't know was that Secretary General Xia looked at him with an unconcealable envy, if he was twenty years younger, he would definitely not be able to strangle this goods and take it away. In addition to being annoyed and angry by the strata that touched the interests and secretly mobilized resources to block them, a group of people with higher vision keenly discovered a very serious problem.

High housing prices are by no means formed in a short period of time, and the problems of the market economy cannot be solved by the means of the government alone. The vast majority of government governments have taken land sales as the main means of generating income, and this "land enclosure movement" is bound to continue for a long time, but when this public opinion crisis broke out, the Propaganda Department actually found that it did not have a competent media to control the trend of the whole incident, until the whole incident fermented into a social topic, and the official media was belated, and the result was naturally scolded by angry netizens.

Secretary General Xia, who got a little news in advance, knew that Lu Xiaosong would be rewarded for his deeds if he went to the worst situation, and as long as he didn't kill people and set fires from now on, his wealth would be a certainty for a lifetime. If this kid has great luck, I'm afraid it's not impossible for Bu Yili to talk about becoming a prime minister, and maybe his brothers will also follow him to escort this kid.

Alas, the wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, and compared with this kid, how deep and deep the twilight seems to be in the system of people who are floating and rolling in the officialdom.

"Tell me the truth. There are too many people who speak better than you, and the leaders have listened to too much, and now I call you, who are not in the system, to hear a few words of truth. Don't take it seriously, my old man has recommended you for so many years, and even our own sons don't have this blessing. ”

"But I'm not prepared at all."

"Whatever I ask you, you just answer truthfully, and it doesn't matter if you say something wrong. No one expects you to answer the same questions and really think of yourself as a character? If you shouldn't say anything, as long as you pass the test this time, even I will have to be polite to you in the future. ”

"Uncle, I'm timid, don't scare me, how dare I jump in front of you with my little pound?"

"Hehe, you kid is pretending to be stupid with me? This time the matter of "Snail House" is obviously banned from radio and television, but you don't know who the top boss of radio and television is? Let me tell you the truth, I went to Beijing this time to be able to enter the Wanjiang Provincial Party Committee in advance, and the people above are trying to find ways to compensate you and let me better protect you. He doesn't even want to owe us the favor of our old subordinates, and he still owes you kid? If you hadn't stabbed such a big hole, I wouldn't have been qualified to take you on this trip? Don't look sad, it's a good thing that no one else can ask for. You are outside the organization, but you are always under the leadership of the organization. Special status, transcendent status, unconstrained, freewheeling. Xia Mingcheng finally said the sixteen-character mantra, and Lu Xiaosong was dizzy when he heard it, this is a gold medal for avoiding death, similar to Jia Yucun in the Dream of Red Mansions when he heard "Jia is not fake, white jade is a golden horse", will he soon be invincible in the entertainment industry.

"Nominally, you are not our person, but in fact you keep in touch with us at all times and even accept our leadership, if you really want to poke the basket like this this time, others will be jealous if they want to deal with you, and we have a room to turn around."

Lu Xiaosong hurriedly said that he understood, not to mention anything else, he had so many women, and he had not been exposed until now, and he definitely deliberately suppressed it.

"Fox fake tiger might?" As soon as Lu Xiaosong finished speaking, he knew that he was speechless, how could he compare the leaders to tigers?

"Although the words are a little rough, but this is true, at least those who want to deal with you will weigh it, spend a lot of effort to take you down, and deal with the backers behind you, do you think they will do such stupid things?"

Xia Mingcheng paused and continued: "Of course, protecting you is to make things better for you. Our identity is subject to the constraints of the system at any time, some things are inconvenient to say, some things are inconvenient to do, even if we say and do, there are many constraints, the effect is not obvious, and it may be self-defeating. ”

"So, you want me to do it?" Lu Xiaosong pointed at himself, you also think too highly of me.

"Young people, don't be presumptuous, you didn't do well without our support before. In the circle you are in, sooner or later we will have to reach out and take care of it, but there are mixed fish and dragons, the interests of all parties are intertwined, and the slightest carelessness will put a lot of pressure on the media and public opinion. We urgently need to find someone of our own to speak out, after all, we old men don't like to listen to young people anymore. ”

"When you are famous in the entertainment industry, and someone listens to what you say, you will be able to do things as you want, and you can spread your influence to the entire literary and artistic world."

Lu Xiaosong can only say that the people above are playing a big game of chess, which is to control the entire entertainment industry and then control the rhythm of the entire public opinion. Lu Xiaosong, who has experienced later generations, can't help but praise the courage of the bigwigs, they basically do what they say, but if they add themselves, they should do better.

After saying that he was a stirring stick for a long time, he wanted to expose the layers of shady scenes in the entire literary and artistic world, which was really the opposite of all vested interests, and the wealth was also dangerous, and if he was not careful, he would be ruined. I went to Beijing Gate in order to accept a letter of nomination.

When I arrived in Yanjing, someone naturally picked up the station. Sitting in the Hongqi car, there was nothing to say all the way, even the curtains could not be opened, so he was carried to the mountain, stopped and checked 3 times on the way, and the last time he was not even allowed to enter the car, Lu Xiaosong got off the car and handed over the things, and was invited to a room to drink tea. It didn't take long for Xia Mingcheng to come in, and it seemed that he hadn't even seen his eldest brother's face, but he had a smile on his face.

"Did the guys open the crockpot during the inspection?"

Lu Xiaosong can also guess the urine nature of the guards, and it can be regarded as an outrage if he suffers a loss. Everyone can understand the routine, but there is no need to make everyone uncomfortable with a straight face, isn't it good to cooperate with each other?

"Hmph, I thought Lao Tzu was bringing biological and chemical weapons, obviously with good intentions, but I had to make chickens and dogs jump. As a result, the person above got angry. ”

"Who told people to eat this bowl of rice, long live understanding, how did you get it later?"

"The movement is big, my eldest brother came out and gave them a lecture, it was originally a greeting, and the things can't be opened and sent in directly, they have to listen, who is to blame."

"This is also a way to show loyalty, now the leader is just angry for a while, if he really doesn't investigate, maybe he will be transferred away in a few months. They have offended so many immortals, and they must not be bullied to death when they go out? ”

"Okay, our task is complete, let's wait for the notice." Xia Mingcheng glanced at Lu Xiaosong and did not answer.

At the same time, Xia Mingcheng's eldest brother Xia Minghe didn't dare to delay after getting the four crockpots, and hurriedly found someone to reseal his mouth and send it to his own leaders. Minister Liu did not dare to delay, the one who received the gift was one of the few founding heroes who was still alive, although his health was okay, but after all, he was old, and he would not meet guests in his spare time. If it weren't for the things sent by his old subordinates for many years, they wouldn't have been handed over to his old man.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to see each other tonight, let's just caten in this guest house for one night, the conditions are okay, raise your spirits, and behave well tomorrow." Eating the dinner cooked by the small stove, Secretary General Xia instructed Lu Xiaosong that this could be regarded as the back door opened by his eldest brother, otherwise he would have to eat a cold working meal.

Since ancient times, it has been better than the king of Hades, the little ghosts are difficult, the seven officials in front of the prime minister, all of them are dogs and people, and they are all arrogant, for the people in the public gate who enter Beijing from the place, if the benefits are not good, there are 10,000 ways to rectify you.

Fortunately, the relationship between the two of them is strong enough, otherwise it is common to wait for ten days and a half months. Early the next morning, the boss of the Xia family came to pick him up in person, saying that Liu Situ, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and Rites of the court, was going to entertain the two of them on behalf of the old leader.

The three of them sat down and waited for the leader to arrive. Although the dishes are very ordinary, the skills of the imperial chefs have nothing to say, except for Lu Xiaosong, who is accustomed to heavy oil and spicy local buns, which always feel lighter when he looks at it.

"Comrade Mingcheng, thank you, and thank you for your kindness. Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and affectionate. "The future cabinet minister, the current Ministry of Rites Shangshu has not yet come to the front, and he has already greeted Xia Mingcheng and the others.

Lu Xiaosong and the Xia family brothers hurriedly stood up and bowed to say hello, stretched out their hands early and waited.

"The three of you are all southerners, and I'm afraid I can't get used to eating with me, so I called an eldest sister of my family to come over to accompany me, how about you four southerners accompany me, a northerner?"

Lu Xiaosong took a look, isn't this the eldest sister of the family in Liu Situ's mouth the vice premier of the state government who was later in charge of culture and sports? This is my future boss.

"It's an honor, it's an honor." Xia Mingcheng could only nod.

Sister Liu also greeted everyone warmly, and heard that Lu Xiaosong was from Gusu, and Sister Liu was also very happy, and said cordially that Lu Xiaosong was half of her fellow countryman.

According to the rules on the usual wine table, it must be the smallest backup Lu Xiaosong poured wine, but how could Secretary Xia be willing to let it, in his words, he would go down immediately, and he didn't know if he wanted to pour wine next time. The leader is very artistic in drinking, every time it is shallow, you just pour it full, and it is neither too much nor rude.

"Xiaolu, I thank you for my old leader. The old man has a deep affection for Wanjiang, and he has not forgotten this for so many years. I heard Minghe say, you bought everything? No matter how polite Corporal Liu Situ was, Lu Xiaosong didn't dare to accept it, so he quickly got up and was modest: "It's all things on the table of ordinary people, the old general is so approachable, I admire it from the bottom of my heart." ”

"Xiaolu is a top student in the history department, Xia Lao's year-old friend, the founding general can recite it like a stream." Xia Mingcheng said something for Lu Xiaosong, which means that this is his own person.

"Oh? It's rare that young people don't forget their roots. Sister Liu took over, "I heard that your grandfather was a subordinate of Elder Li back then?" Xia Lao's comrades-in-arms? ”

"Yes. He was the commander of the reconnaissance company of the 6th Column and 17th Brigade of Nakano that year, and later met Xia Lao when he was an operational staff officer. During the Battle of Xiangfan, the two of them joined forces and captured the big spy Kang Ze alive, and there are still a lot of photos in the house, which I grew up watching. ”

"Yes, the 17th Brigade was also collectively credited with a great credit for liberating Xiangyang and capturing Kang Ze alive. Is your grandfather okay? ”

"Well, it's still tough, climbing mountains and playing chess with Xia Lao every day, and traveling everywhere."

"Alas, the older generation does not admire power and gives us the burden, and we are trembling. It turns out that there are some jobs that we really didn't do well, at least not in front. Liu Situ took over the conversation and took the initiative to touch a glass with Lu Xiaosong.

"Let's take the boiling "Snail House" that is being discussed now as an example, which shows that the thinking of our old guys has been a little out of step with the rhythm of the times."

Xia Mingcheng stood up with a "brush", "Minister Liu, the main responsibility for this matter lies with me." ”

Liu Situ waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, "I don't want to hold anyone responsible, but I want to say responsibility, and I, the propaganda minister, bear the greatest responsibility." With the increasing popularity of home broadband, public opinion, especially online public opinion, has become a work for the whole people to participate in, and it is a new platform for the broad masses of the whole society to express their opinions and criticize the evils of the times. We have already suffered a loss once, and in the future we must attach importance to this aspect and have a keen sense of struggle; whoever loses the battle for public opinion will suffer a loss in the struggle for the people's hearts and minds, and this is a big problem. ”

"You don't have to carry a burden on the road, Minister Liu and I have watched the drama "Snail House" carefully, and the filming is good, at least it captures the issues that the people are concerned about. Now many families are overwhelmed by this high housing price, and if they don't let them get angry, there will inevitably be a big mess. However, we must first take into account the overall situation in everything we do, real estate is the main growth point of the economy in many places, and it is certainly inappropriate to pour a basin of cold water on it, which I hope you can understand. ”

"Two leaders, please rest assured, as a member of the group, I still have this awareness." Lu Xiaosong got up and replied.

"Well, that's for the best. In fact, I called you here today mainly to hear your thoughts, I heard that it only took you more than a year to build an entertainment company, and you also made a lot of money, and you also acted in a lot of TV dramas and movies? At this moment, Sister Liu, who is still a state councilor, pulled Lu Xiaosong to sit down and asked with a smile.

"It's all petty fights and random luck."

"Alas, don't be too modest. Any good ideas for a lesson for our two old guys? ”

"How dare you, in business, I'll just say a little immature idea, the two leaders criticize more. From the perspective of the whole of China, the rapid growth of GDP for many years will inevitably lead to the prosperity of the entire entertainment industry, but what is not commensurate with it is that the soil for the survival of the entire Chinese entertainment industry is too bad. From the perspective of the literary and artistic circles, the inflated value of celebrities has greatly squeezed out the production cost of the film, coupled with the dark box operation of distribution and cinema rooms, whether it is a TV series or a movie, the overall production level is declining. In recent years, except for one "Bright Sword" is "Snail House", the other films have basically followed the trend and plagiarized or are remakes, and there is no artistic innovation at all. After "Bright Sword", a large number of shoddy war films filled the entire screen, and the common people complained about it. On the one hand, domestic films are complacent, and on the other hand, the introduction of foreign blockbusters is strictly restricted, and there is no motivation without competition. ”

The two high-ranking officials glanced at each other and secretly said to themselves, it's really not that they don't know, and they are shocked.

"The other aspect is sports broadcasting, the five major leagues and the Champions League have repeatedly offered sky-high broadcast contracts, the entire European betting industry basically revolves around it, the NBA is the most successful sports business league, and what have we done over the years with the best football market? Not only is the national team's performance a mess, but the entire football industry has also been made into a miasma by black whistle gambling, which is a lucrative business. ”

"The last aspect is the Internet industry, with the increasing popularity of optical fiber and home broadband, the Internet will become one of the most profitable emerging industries, and the state has not yet had a special legal document to manage this aspect, telecommunications, Unicom, mobile these oligarchs, every year to fill their pockets of money is astronomical."

"Komatsu, you can't say anything without evidence." Xia Mingcheng's face turned pale when he heard this, and asked you to say that you don't want to tell the truth, you have to give the leader a psychological preparation.

"Don't interrupt, let him say that the speaker is not guilty, not only is he not guilty, but he also has great merit." Minister Liu waved his hand to stop and motioned for Lu Xiaosong to continue.

"The proof is the word of mouth of the people, and the overlord clauses issued by these oligarchs every day are ironclad evidence. We can conduct a sample survey, and the vast majority of home broadband network speeds are basically not up to standard, and these far more than the regular loss of traffic are all money. ”

"Yes, our eyes are still stuck in the old place, and we always see those vested interests in front of us, and it seems that some problems need to be investigated." Minister Liu sighed, the bystanders are clear, if these problems are solved, why worry that the country has no money, it is better than demolishing houses and selling land all day long.

"Xiaolu, since you're talking about the Internet, I just have something to ask you. Some time ago, was there a game approval thing on the part of the Copyright Agency, which made a big fuss? Aunt Liu suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Are you talking about Warcraft approval? To tell you the truth, the manager of their Huaxia region has a personal relationship with me. Lu Xiaosong told the truth.

"You don't have to scruple, just tell the truth." Minister Liu dispelled Lu Xiaosong's concerns.

"World of Warcraft is a paid online game owned by Blizzard in the United States, with millions of players in China, and in 2005, the Huaxia region was represented by Nine C Company, when the four-year agency contract totaled about 25 million US dollars. By June of this year, the contract expired, and Blizzard offered a new contract for $30 million a year. ”

"So much? The cost of this new contract for one year is equal to the total price of the previous contract, which is why Blizzard asked for a change of agents? Aunt Liu was taken aback, as a state councilor in charge of propaganda, many details of this matter reported to her were not clear, if it weren't for Lu Xiaosong, she wouldn't know the specific details of this contract.

But it is such a game that has made the originally little-known Nine C Company one of the giants of the Internet industry, and even has the confidence to enter the football world to burn money. It is the duty of the two parties to bargain, but Nine C Company refused to negotiate further with the threat of disclosing the player's account information, and put forward an unreasonable demand for an unconditional extension of the original contract for 4 years. I'm also a World of Warcraft player, so I'll give you an account and you'll know. An active player is online for about 300 minutes a day on average, and a point card costs 4,000 minutes of game time, priced at 30 yuan. In this way, a player consumes 70 yuan per month, which is 840 yuan a year, and based on the calculation of 3 million active players in Warcraft in the country, the income of the point card alone is more than 300 million US dollars a year, deducting operating costs and advertising expenses, and the net profit of a year is at least 100 million US dollars, which is not counting other peripheral income, how can you say that Jiuc can let go of this cash cow. ”

"You mean there is nothing to fear on the nine-c's side?"

"Yes, on the one hand, they are using our existing loopholes in management to stall for time, and on the other hand, they are trying to coerce Blizzard into making concessions by exposing the privacy of player data. You must know that just the time for approving official documents, circulating between several departments, and preparing various materials is enough to drag on the ninth c. Even if Blizzard decides not to renew the contract with Nine C in the end, only NetEase has the strength and experience to take over such a large-scale online game in Huaxia, and then all the approval procedures will have to be restarted, plus the time to open the joint, the loss is astronomical. ”

Lu Xiaosong said in as much detail as possible so that the two leaders could understand the doorway, and Minister Liu said sadly: "If there is a problem with the system, we can reform, and if there is a deficiency in management, we can improve it." However, the department that is supposed to perform its duties is a corpse and even a nest of snakes and rats, which is the most worrying, and it seems that there are some things that cannot be understood by just looking at documents. ”

State Councilor Liu on the side nodded and said: "I am responsible for this matter, but according to Xiaolu, what you said is only a commercial means at this stage, and we have no reason to interfere." ”

"It's not difficult, Boss Zhu of Nine C also has an identity as the chairman of the Shanghai Football Club, and the current gambling storm is sweeping the entire Chinese Super League, often walking by the river, how can there be no wet shoes, as long as you follow the vine and touch the melon. As for the rest of the things, if the two leaders can trust me, they will hand it over to me to handle it and ensure that the task is completed. Lu Xiaosong made a military order on the spot, which scared Xia Mingcheng next to him stupidly, what do you kid want to do?

"Okay, ambitious. Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, Comrade Mingcheng, you can fully cooperate. ”

"Don't worry, chief, I will complete the task."

When he came back from the chief, Xia Mingcheng grabbed Lu Xiaosong and asked the chief, the chief wants me to cooperate with you, you can always give me a score.

"For small things, just ask Uncle Xia to help us shoot a show."
