"I have checked, the monopoly of the cultural industry is under the control of the Ministry of Culture, one of the eight ministries of the national government, and the local government has no right to interfere, if you want to investigate, then it can only be investigated by the people of the Ministry of Culture."

"If that's the case, the situation will be even more unfavorable for us, our relationship is okay in Shancheng and Dongjun, but when it comes to it, we don't have any foundation at all." Zhang Aiyuan said worriedly.

"Sister Ehime, this is a bad statement, the relationship is established by the above, and only when the people above come here will they know the truth of the matter and clear our grievances."

"But ......"

Zhang Aiyuan couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Li Rui's gourd, but seeing that Li Rui was already in his chest, he didn't say anything.

Two days later, Generation Pictures really received an interview notice from the Ministry of Culture and Culture, and they acted quickly, directly inserted a pole into the end, and flew straight to Shancheng, without giving Li Rui time to prepare.

The officials in charge of the interviews are of a very high rank, the head of the Department of Market Management of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture, and the L8 level of direct civil servants, who are at the same level as the state offices, but whose status is clearly more prominent. The officials from the imperial capital can be said to be able to walk sideways in various places, even in front of the director of the public office, they are not merciless at all.

Li Rui was drinking tea and reading newspapers in the office every day, and today Chen Yun suddenly called, saying that the officials of the Ministry of Culture and Culture had arrived and were about to talk to Li Rui. Obviously, at this time, even if Chen Yun wanted to help Li Rui, he couldn't do anything, and after the people above arrived, Chen Yun, the city lord of Shancheng, could only serve tea and pour water.

But Li Rui was still not in a hurry, he didn't even prepare any information, and went to the Zhishan Castle generously.

That's where I made an appointment with him today.

As soon as Li Rui entered the door, he saw that one side of the conference table was full of people, and in the middle was a woman in a suit, about thirty years old, with a small black suit naturally open, with a white shirt inside, and when he saw Li Rui come in, the person also stood up, and at this time she could be seen wearing black tight trousers, which set off her slender legs, which was both chic and beautiful.

The smooth and fair face is full of angular coldness. The thick eyebrows are raised slightly rebelliously, and under the long, slightly curly eyelashes, there are a pair of eyes as clear as morning dew, a straight nose, pink lips like rose petals, and fair skin...... All of them are exalting nobility and elegance.

"You should be Dong Li, right?"

Li Rui nodded and said, "Yes, I am Li Rui."

"Qin Henan," the woman stretched out her hand and said politely, "The head of the Marketing Management Department of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture is also the person in charge of this interview."

"Hello Director Qin, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Li Rui also shook his hand politely.

"Dong Li, I think you should know that you have also seen the public opinion on the Internet, and the call of the screen name forced us to meet today."

Li Rui smiled and said, "Director Qin, this little thing is worth you to come down and run in person, in fact, it's all a misunderstanding."

Qin Henan glanced at Li Rui and said, "Dong Li, maybe you don't know much about my work, the most important job of our Market Management Department of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture is market supervision, especially the monopoly behavior of the cultural industry, and we have never been soft. We've also interviewed a lot of CEOs, and to tell you the truth, the first thing they said to me was a "misunderstanding."

"yes, that's a coincidence, but I'm really misunderstood, if you don't believe me, we can investigate."

"Don't worry, I never wronged a good person, but I will never let a bad person go."

After some words, Li Rui deeply admired this young L8-level official, this person is capable and spicy, and he is indeed not a vase that is useless.

"Director Qin, aren't we going to talk about business today?"

Director Qin waved his hand and said, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you."

"Chairman Li, this is a series of business practices that we have found about Generation Pictures, a subsidiary of your holding company, Aoshi Group, which involves the acquisition of film rights, the construction of new theaters and exclusive screenings, etc., I think you should know about these

Does that mean anything?"

Li Rui glanced at Qin Henan strangely and asked, "What does it mean?" Are these illegal?"

Qin Henan smiled coldly and said, "Dong Li, these behaviors are already suspected of market monopoly."

Li Rui was puzzled and asked, "There is such a law in the Celestial Empire that cannot buy film copyrights?"

Qin Henan shook his head and said, "Of course, the acquisition of film copyrights is allowed, but your acquisition behavior has indirectly caused other companies to have no movies to play, what is this not a monopoly?"

Li Rui waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's something you and I want to buy the copyright, I'm not forcing them to trade, besides, other companies don't have movies to show? I don't think this is necessarily the truth, the film copyright in my hand is a small amount of the total copyright in the country, other companies can play other movies, or they can buy it back from me, you can't blame me for the incompetence of other companies."

Qin Henan seemed to have expected Li Rui to say this, and said with a smile: "Dong Li, then how do you explain the behavior of building a large number of new movie theaters?"

Li Rui waved his hand and said, "Director Qin, building a movie theater for the countryside is a public welfare act, is there a problem with this?"

Director Qin smiled and said, "Public welfare? What are you not building well, why do you want to build a movie theater, and your movie theater is playing all your company's movies, I have reason to doubt that you are secretly exporting your own values in the name of public welfare."

Li Rui sighed, glanced at Qin Henan with a wry smile, and said, "Director Qin, our company's movies are all legal, and they have all been reviewed by your competent authorities, what's the problem with us releasing legal movies?"

"Dong Li, your attitude makes me very embarrassed."

Li Rui smiled and said, "Then what is the difficulty, what should I do, if I really break the law, then I should be punished, I Li Rui has nothing to say."

Hearing this, Qin Henan looked at the colleagues around her, and after a few people made eye contact for a while, she said with a smile: "Dong Li, you are really a young talent, you are a good person when you talk and do things, I think the punishment will be waived, but there is one thing I hope you can seriously consider."

Qin Henan's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and Li Rui was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

"I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet, Li Dong is a smart person, he should understand what we mean."

"Director Qin, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."

"You are in Haizhou, you should know better than us, what the current situation in Haizhou is, behind the chaos is people with ulterior motives who want to break the current balanced situation, you are in the whirlpool, you should know the truth of leaning against the big tree to enjoy the shade."

Qin Henan suddenly wanted to win over Li Rui, which Li Rui did not expect at all, and she also pointed out the current complicated situation in Haizhou, which shows that the top level of the empire has long been aware of all this. At this time, Qin Henan took advantage of the public opinion turmoil of Generation Pictures to come to Shancheng and quietly connected with Li Rui, which shows that the above meaning is already obvious.

"I naturally understand the reason, but I don't know how big this big tree of yours is?"

Qin Henan smiled slightly and said, "Hands and eyes reach the sky."

"Hahaha, Director Qin, to be honest, although I have experienced a lot of things in Haizhou, I don't know who I am fighting with, if it is convenient, can Director Qin help me dial a little?"

Qin Henan first showed surprise, then nodded appreciatively, and said, "Dong Li, you can go all the way to the present in Haizhou, which is full of conspiracies and traps, to prove that you do have extraordinary abilities, so let's show our sincerity, I can tell you who is the real trader in Haizhou."

Li Rui pricked up his ears, and after waiting for so long, he was finally about to solve the mystery.

At this moment, the mood is very responsible, excited, but also inexplicably apprehensive.

"This person is Bai Heng—"

"Bai Heng?"

When Li Rui heard this name, he couldn't help but gasp

Cool air.

Bai Heng, the prime minister of cloth, who would not know his name if he looked at the entire Celestial Empire, although Li Rui had vaguely guessed that this arranger must have extremely strong energy, and what he was doing now was only the initial link of all his plans. However, when he confirmed that this person was Bai Heng, he was confused.

The grasshopper shakes the tree, and it is not self-sufficient.

Even if you don't believe in your fate, don't admit defeat, and don't fear power, how much chance can you really have in the face of an opponent like Xiang Baiheng?

I'm afraid there isn't.

What he had done before was not a real victory at all, because as long as Bai Heng wanted to, he could easily turn it into ashes.

The reason why he didn't do this was because Bai Heng didn't want his motives to be exposed too early, and he didn't want to delay the whole overall situation because of a trivial matter.

"Dong Li?" Qin Henan asked softly, "What's wrong with you?"

Li Rui came back to his senses and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"We hope that you will continue to work hard and make the Aoshi Group stronger and stronger, perhaps, in front of Bai Heng, the Prime Minister of Buyi, the Aoshi Group is just a small shrimp, but your little shrimp can consume his energy, drag him down, and buy time for us."

"Are you going to do something to Bai Heng?"

"The empire is the empire of the Führer, and on the territory of the empire, it is impossible to have a situation of division between the north and the south for a long time, and the fall of Bai Heng is only a matter of time." Qin Henan said with a smile: "However, this matter is not urgent, there may be a long way to go in the future, we hope that the content of today's conversation can rot in your stomach, and no one outside the conference room today will know, understand?"

Li Rui nodded and said, "Then how can I contact you?"

"Don't worry, when we need to contact you, we will naturally contact you, what you have to do now is to do a good job in a down-to-earth manner, so that Bai Heng can't solve you in a short time."

"It seems that I am just a tool for you."
