175: Chapter 175 Rewards for Five-Star Intelligence

Yang Zhengyang, who was overseeing coordination at the Yangcheng Provincial Department, received successive reports of victory from the three locations, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face.

"Conduct overnight interrogations to uncover the full details of the case. If anyone has slipped through the net, issue a wanted notice immediately."

This was the latest directive he issued to the three locations.

The police stations in the three locations were brightly lit as they worked through the night.

...

The next day, back in Yangcheng, Chen Shaoping was in the editing room, looking at the finished edit of "crazy stone."

He nodded with satisfaction.

The final cut looked excellent.

Director Lin, smoking a cigarette, jokingly handed one to Chen Shaoping. "CEO Chen, what do you think?"

"I didn't waste your money, did I?"

"Ever since I got the script, you haven't asked a single question. It made me feel a bit abandoned."

Chen Shaoping took the cigarette and lit it. He could tell from the proud look in the man's eyes.

This guy was waiting for praise.

He might as well have written 'praise me' on his face.

Chen Shaoping patted Director Lin and said meaningfully, "Director Lin, this movie is about to be released. What are your plans?"

"CEO Chen, are you testing me?" Director Lin asked back, seeing through Chen Shaoping's intention. "I agree to join the company, but on one condition."

"If I finish revising my script, the company must invest in it and let me film it."

Director Lin had thought it through while filming "crazy stone."

He couldn't write such a detailed script himself. If he wanted to continue filming good scripts, joining the company was the best choice.

Moreover, he had witnessed the company's development since he joined.

This gave him great confidence.

His dream of becoming an internationally renowned director might be realized with the company's support.

After hearing him out, Chen Shaoping complained inwardly: Isn't it good to just be a director? Why are you still thinking about writing scripts?

The key was that he simply wasn't cut out for scriptwriting.

"I can agree to that condition." Chen Shaoping changed the subject. "Next, do you want to take a break or continue working?"

Director Lin was delighted and said loudly, "CEO Chen, is there a new script? Are you planning for a Spring Festival release?"

"Exactly."

"CEO Chen, you really know me. You know I can't stay idle. What genre is the script?" Director Lin asked with a flattering smile.

"I'll send it to you later and you'll know. But for now, your main task is still the editing and promotion of the movie."

"By the way, look into the actors in the movie. If any of them want to join the company, sign them all."

Chen Shaoping didn't plan to give the script to Director Lin right away; at the earliest, it would be after the movie's release.

He was afraid Director Lin would lose interest in the old project for the new one.

"Alright, actually a few of them have already been asking me about the situation."

Director Lin nodded solemnly. Since he had agreed to join the company, he naturally had to scout some good actors for them.

"That's good. Report any issues to CEO Li. I'll be going now."

Chen Shaoping walked out of the editing room satisfied, with Director Lin's voice trailing behind him.

"Take care, CEO Chen. You're always welcome to come and give us guidance."

Chen Shaoping got back into his car. Just as he was about to drive back to the company, his phone rang urgently.

"Four Jun, that's rare. It's rare for you to call me on your own initiative. Are you going to treat me to a big meal?"

He answered the phone and asked with a smile before Tian Jun could speak.

On the other end of the line, Tian Jun coughed, his tone carrying some apology.

"Da Ping, let's talk about it after this period. I really can't find the time."

"I'm even using my bathroom break to make this call to you."

Even without Tian Jun saying it, Chen Shaoping knew he was busy, which was why he hadn't reached out.

"Since you're so busy, why are you still calling me?"

"Based on the intelligence you provided, the police have taken action and achieved great results, arresting a total of 26 criminal suspects."

"As for the specifics, the police have already issued a detailed case announcement."

"You can go take a look."

Tian Jun hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

Before Chen Shaoping could check the news online, the system's voice appeared.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing five-star intelligence for the first time, earning 2 paparazzi points.]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining one opportunity for designated intelligence.]

[Host currently has: 31 paparazzi points.]

Chen Shaoping looked delighted; the rewards for five-star intelligence were indeed rich.

But he figured it wouldn't be this good next time.

Including this one, he now had 3 opportunities for designated intelligence.

With the rewards in hand, he excitedly stepped on the gas. The car let out a roar and sped towards Tongxing Entertainment Company.

Tian Jun came out of the bathroom, washed his hands casually, and walked toward the interrogation room.

Before he went to the bathroom, the Municipal Bureau had already arranged for people to invite the celebrities Lv Tao, Jia Jing, and Wu Enling to the police station to assist in the investigation.

Tian Jun arrived at the interrogation observation room, where Lu Sihai and Huang Tao were also present.

"It seems these three female celebrities indeed didn't participate in the crimes. They were just desperate for a boy and got swindled."

Huang Tao made a judgment after watching the questioning process.

"Yes, Director Huang, I think so too," Lu Sihai agreed.

"After a stern warning, notify their families to come and pick them up."

"Yes, Director Huang."

As Huang Tao was leaving, he saw Tian Jun nearby and stopped, speaking earnestly.

"Little Tian, good job. Keep it up."

"Yes, Director!" Tian Jun stood at attention and replied loudly.

Huang Tao smiled with satisfaction and turned to leave.

Lu Sihai looked at Tian Jun, unable to hide the joy in his heart.

Just now, Huang Tao had indirectly revealed some information to him.

The vacancy left by Zheng Qifeng's downfall would likely be filled by him.

It had basically been decided; only the final appointment was pending.

And all of this was thanks to the intelligence provided by Tian Jun, which led to the credit for solving several major cases.

He's a lucky star!

Tian Jun felt uneasy under Lu Sihai's gaze. He hadn't heard of the director having any special hobbies.

He got goosebumps all over and just wanted to escape.

"Director, since there's nothing else here, I'll head back to the task force."

"Mhm, alright, go ahead."

"Oh... Little Tian, take care of yourself and be careful!"

...

After Chen Shaoping returned to Tongxing Entertainment Company, before he could even settle in, Li Qian walked in.

"CEO Chen, the people below asked me to come and ask when you'll give them the songs you promised."

"They can't wait anymore."

"I've already prepared them. I'll give them to you right away."

Chen Shaoping made up a lie on the spot, trying his best not to let Li Qian see through him.

At the same time, he thought to himself: "System, exchange for the songs 'thousand years of love', 'Honey', and 'sad pacific'."

"'Fly Freely', 'Moonlight over the Lotus Pond', 'Rose Waiting for Love', 'I Come from the Grasslands', 'Map of Mountains and Rivers', and 'Lady Shexiang'."

[Host has successfully exchanged 9 paparazzi points for the song 'thousand years of love'...]

[Host currently has: 22 paparazzi points.]

Once the songs were exchanged, Chen Shaoping didn't waste a moment and sent them all to Li Qian.

"'thousand years of love' is for Feier Band, 'Honey' is for Wang Xinning, and Xiao Qi's is 'sad pacific'."

"The others are for Zhuque Legend's album."

Her phone immediately started making 'beep beep beep' sounds.

"Alright, I'll head out then." With the songs in hand, Li Qian smiled with satisfaction and prepared to leave.

"Sister Qian, wait a moment. How's the review and promotion for the movie 'crazy stone' going?"

"It's already been arranged. Once it passes the review, promotion will start immediately."

"Will the review be done in time?"

"No problem. Comedy movies are reviewed very quickly.""}],
