In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

"Brother Zheng, what are we doing coming all this way to Handong? Although we're still lacking some investment, if you just say a word to those entertainment companies, getting investment will be a piece of cake!"

Assistant director Huang Wen was clearly unhappy.

Huang Wen, who was used to being arrogant in the industry, couldn't understand why someone would come all the way to the unfamiliar place of Handong and have to rely on other people's schedules to make an appointment.

Xu Zheng frowned upon hearing this.

"Brother Huang, watch your words!"

It won't be easy for our movie to be released. Relying solely on your backing investors might not be enough to withstand the pressure from those pharmaceutical companies. Mr. Zhang, Dongsheng Investment's capital is absolutely a behemoth.

More importantly, Mr. Zhang's husband is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Handong and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission!

"It's great news for us that Mr. Zhang is willing to invest!"

Upon hearing this explanation, Huang Wen could only purse his lips and remain silent. Didn't he understand this principle?

"Alright, alright, I can't argue with you, Zheng-ge. But since we're already in Handong, and it's getting late, is it okay if I invite a few friends over to hang out?"

The meaning is clear: Xu Zheng should reimburse the expenses...

"Okay, no problem, but please be careful."

"Hahaha, don't worry, Brother Zheng, I've heard that nobody in Handong cares about this kind of thing!"

............................................................

Under the cover of night, several voluptuous women arrived at the Handong International Hotel and entered Huang Wen's room.

These women had only been in the room for about ten minutes when a group of six or seven police officers arrived.

Unsurprisingly, Huang Wen and three other employees responsible for negotiating the cooperation were arrested.

Hongshan Subdistrict Police Station, Guangming District, Jingzhou City.

Director Sheng Jie simply stared at Huang Wen and the other three people in front of him.

"The evidence is overwhelming; the four of you are involved in prostitution. Now you'd better think about what to do!"

After saying that, Sheng Jie left the interrogation room.

Huang Wen and his three companions were pale. If they still didn't understand that they had been set up, then they might as well give up on their careers.

How can the police arrive in ten minutes?

Is this bad luck?

Soon, a captain from the police station entered the interrogation room and then called Huang Wen to an office to the side.

"Brother, if you're unlucky, just accept it. Right now, it's just a 10,000 yuan fine in cash, and we'll pretend we don't know anything about what you did. Otherwise, you'd at least be detained for more than ten days!"

Upon hearing that it would be more than ten days, Huang Wen gritted his teeth, feeling extremely unwilling to accept the situation, which had been so badly thwarted.

After taking a deep breath, he made his decision.

"Okay, but I don't have any cash on me. Give me my phone number first, and I'll call someone to bring it over."

The captain did not make things difficult for Huang Wen.

The ringing of the bell startled Xu Zheng, who was still sleeping in the hotel.

He then answered the phone and heard Huang Wen's voice.

"Brother Zheng, we've been arrested!"

After Huang Wen gave a brief account of the events, Xu Zheng rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

"Okay, I understand. You guys wait a moment."

In a rush, Xu Zheng arrived at the police station an hour later with the cash he had just withdrawn.

Upon meeting Huang Wen, Xu Zheng took out 40,000 yuan in cash that he had prepared, but the team leader shook his head.

"Gentlemen, we can only release one of them. The remaining three need to be dealt with according to the law and regulations."

In truth, wouldn't they also like to release them all?

Unfortunately, their station chief received an order during the day to crack down on prostitution and illegal publications. That order was personally given by the Director of the Public Security Bureau, and the remaining three people still had to stay behind to complete the task!

After half a day of fruitless negotiations, Xu Zheng had no choice but to leave with Huang Wen.

The next morning at 8:30.

Xu Zheng, inside the hotel, finally took out his phone and dialed a number. Huang Wen, standing beside him, didn't dare to breathe.

"Feed? Is this Mr. Zhang?"

Villa No. 8 in the Provincial Party Committee compound.

Zhang Nian, who was having breakfast, was not planning to answer the phone when it rang, but Chen Luo next to her smiled and gestured for her to answer it if there was nothing wrong.

The hands-free function is on.

"It's me. Are you Xu Zheng?"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Zhang, there's something I might need your help with..."

Xu Zheng quickly recounted everything that happened last night. He originally didn't want to care about the three men's fate, but when morning came, Xu Zheng and Huang Wen discovered that the company's official seal and contracts were still in the hands of those three men.

The contract can be reissued by Huang Wen's investors, but what about the company seal?

Furthermore, Handong and his group truly lacked connections...

Left with no other choice, I had to call Zhang Nian.

Chen Luo listened to Xu Zheng's entire story, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.

"Honey, give me the phone."

Upon hearing her husband say that, Zhang Nian immediately handed the phone to Chen Luo.

"Hello, Mr. Xu, this is Chen Luo!"

Upon hearing Chen Luo's authoritative voice in the hotel, Xu Zheng immediately tensed up.

"Hello, Secretary Chen!"

"Yes, Mr. Xu, don't be nervous. Which police station did you have this incident at?"

"Um, Secretary Chen, it seems to be Hongshan Police Station."

"Okay, I understand. Go to the police station again at 9:30."

After saying that, Chen Luo hung up the phone.

Huang Wen, watching this scene from inside the hotel, couldn't help but feel excited.

"Brother Zheng! Is he Mr. Zhang's husband, or Secretary Chen of the Handong Political and Legal Committee?"

Hahaha, that's great! I don't believe those cops will dare to be arrogant anymore!

Hearing Huang Wen's excitement, Xu Zheng felt no joy at all. He had a feeling that this matter had blown up!

At Chen Luo's home.

Chen Luo quickly finished his breakfast after hanging up the phone.

He then said to Zhang Nian, "Wife, this matter involves some complicated issues, and your signing may have to wait a few days."

Zhang Nian wasn't stupid; she could tell what was going on just from the conversation. Besides, she was an investor and wasn't in a hurry at all.

"It's okay, honey, just handle it according to the law and regulations."

After breakfast, Liu Mingyu and his driver were already waiting for him as he stepped out the door.

"Secretary Chen!"

Chen Luo nodded, then instructed, "Mingyu, notify Director Qi of the Public Security Bureau."

Also, Zhao Donglai from the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau told them to bring the director of the Guangming Branch Bureau. It's 8:40 now, and they should meet at the Hongshan Police Station at 9:30.

"Okay, Secretary Chen!"

After giving the instructions, Chen Luo sat in the back seat and closed his eyes to rest, while Liu Mingyu in the passenger seat made phone calls one by one to notify them.

9:28.

Chen Luo's provincial party committee car number eight slowly stopped in front of the Hongshan Police Station. His secretary, Liu Mingyu, quickly got out of the car and opened the door for Chen Luo. As soon as he stepped out of the Audi, Qi Tongwei, who was already waiting, came up to greet him with Zhao Donglai and Cheng Du, the director of the Guangming Branch Bureau.

Meanwhile, Xu Zheng and Huang Wen, who were standing in front of the police station, also witnessed this scene. Heaven knows how nervous they were when they saw Qi Tongwei and the other two.

"Secretary Chen!"

Qi Tongwei and the other two jogged to the car.

He greeted Chen Luo, who nodded and then looked at Xu Zheng and Huang Wen, who were not far away, and said, "Comrade Xu Zheng, you two should come along too."

After saying that, Chen Luo stepped into the Hongshan Police Station.
