342: Chapter 317 Advancing into the Entertainnt Industry 342: Chapter 317 Advancing into the Entertainnt Industry “Han Tomb?” Xiao Yanzi was imdiately surprised.
“Can you confirm it?” Liu Hun pressed further.
“He brought a few items out that looked like antiques,” Zhong Xiao could only speculate.
Liu Hun imdiately smiled, then said to Zhong Xiao, “Whether there’s a Han Tomb or not, I will have professionals secretly investigate; proceed as originally planned.”
Zhong Xiao acknowledged, then disappeared into the darkness.
“What exactly is going on?” Xiao Yanzi asked Liu Hun out of curiosity.
Liu Hun then explained the whole situation and his plans to Xiao Yanzi.
Originally, Liu Hun planned to take in the workers from An Yang Factory, which would provide him with labor and also help Xiao Yanzi out of a tight spot.
As for dealing with Shen Zhengsong, he intended to tackle Huang Guangren first, then Chen Jian, gradually causing Shen Zhengsong to be flustered, panicked, and in disarray.
This way, Liu Hun could force the people behind Shen Zhengsong to show themselves, considering a county secretary to be just a small role in his eyes.
However, now, because there might be a massive Han Tomb beneath An Yang Factory, Liu Hun changed his mind.
He decided to stun Shen Zhengsong in one fell swoop, expose the matter, and thwart all of Shen Zhengsong’s clever plans.
Of course, once the Han Tomb was discovered, the land developers couldn’t get involved, but since it was still a local achievent, Liu Hun wanted Xiao Yanzi to report it upward.
However, not right now, Liu Hun resolved to hurt Shen Zhengsong once, deeply enough that he would rember it forever.
Thus, Liu Hun planned to let Shen Zhengsong invest money into the project first, build the building, and then explode the news—the Han Tomb would always be there.
If Shen Zhengsong didn’t discover it, it ant he was foolish; if he did, even better.
Why?
Because Shen Zhengsong, having already invested funds, would never tolerate his money being wasted, so he would certainly cover it up and let the real estate project continue.
And that was precisely the outco Liu Hun wanted—breaking the law knowingly!
Not only would Shen Zhengsong lose his money this ti, he might even lose his official hat!
After making all the arrangents, Liu Hun advised Xiao Yanzi to take a leave of absence and stay clear of this matter.
As for Zhong Xiao, needless to say, he continued to dig into Gongsun Jing’s background, and Liu Hun had received an antique from Huang Guangren.
A Western Han jade pendant, looking like a dragon but also like a tiger—anyway, Liu Hun didn’t really know what it was, he rely found it quite beautiful and very translucent, so he hung it in his car.
A week later, Shen Zhengsong was happily eating fruits at ho when his phone rang.
“Hello, who’s this?”
“Hello, Secretary Shen, I am Xu Long from the provincial Culture and Education Departnt.”
“Oh!
Director Xu, hello, hello!
You see, you shouldn’t trouble yourself to call , just have soone below you relay the ssage,” Shen Zhengsong never expected Xu Long to call him personally.
“Secretary Shen, don’t you know?
The preliminary evaluation of the land under An Yang Factory suggests that it could be the largest Han Tomb discovered in our country so far!
Congratulations are in order!” Xu Long’s voice was brimming with excitent.
“What?
Director Xu, you must be joking,” Shen Zhengsong’s face imdiately turned pale.
“Secretary Shen, why would I joke about such a big matter?
It was reported by Mayor Xiao of your county; the provincial governnt has decided to notify the Central Governnt to highlight and reward this, and promote it vigorously!” Xu Long said as he couldn’t help but laugh.
Shen Zhengsong responded briefly, then hung up the phone; his heart was filled with despair.
He steadied himself, then quickly called his brother-in-law, Chen Jian.
“Hello, brother-in-law, what’s up?” Chen Jian was busy with a woman on the other end.
“What’s up?!
Big trouble!
The real estate project is going to fail!” Shen Zhengsong yelled into the phone.
Chen Jian hastily sent the woman away and asked seriously, “It can’t be that severe, can it?
Didn’t you say the troublemaking workers had been taken care of?”
“Idiot!
How could you have been keeping watch!
What about Huang Guangren?!
A Han Tomb has been discovered under An Yang Factory!
This is a huge issue, nearly escalating to the Central Governnt, and I only just found out!” Shen Zhengsong berated Chen Jian harshly.
“Huang Guangren?
I…
I haven’t seen him in days either, his family is looking for him,” Chen Jian told Shen Zhengsong.
“Useless!
Why didn’t you ntion this sooner?
A major incident is brewing!
Soone must be scheming!” After speaking, Shen Zhengsong thought for a mont and instructed Chen Jian, “You go and keep a close watch for !
You need to go to An Yang Factory every day!”
After hanging up, Shen Zhengsong sat exhaustedly on the sofa, dazed for quite a while, before picking up the phone and dialing a mysterious number.
The preliminary exploration work at the Han Tomb had started, and the real estate project was definitely dood.
anwhile, the workers at An Yang Factory began their training, and the planning for the breeding farm and plantation in Wanbao Village had comnced—everything was progressing as Liu Hun had envisaged, except for one thing!
That was Shen Zhengsong having absolutely no reaction—no response at all—like a dead dog!
Liu Hun didn’t expect Shen Zhengsong, or more precisely, the people behind him, to stay so calm.
Since Shen Zhengsong was unresponsive, Liu Hun also decided not to take action.
After all, the breeding farm and plantation in Wanbao Village had already got on track and needed so ti, including Xiao Yanzi and her sisters and a group of won, all were busy.
Liu Hun had planned to stay in Wanbao Village for a few more days but hadn’t expected to receive a call from Shi Bi’er.
Liu Hun originally thought that with his own tactics, he had subdued a few celebrities and secured his position, only to find it led to an unintended consequence—being blacklisted!
Liu Hun had already agreed with Chai Rong that Shi Bi’er would sing the the song at the Golden lody Awards ceremony, but unexpectedly, Shi Bi’er called him to say that no music producer was willing to write a song for her.
Now Liu Hun was really anxious, as everything in Wanbao Village needed market-oriented promotion, and celebrities were of utmost importance.
He imdiately drove to Shi Bi’er’s villa, and when his car stopped in front of her house, he had already gotten out of the car but suddenly caught sight of the Jade Pendant hanging inside the car, thought it over, and decided it was safer to bring it along, so he reached out and took it.
“Boom!”
Suddenly!
Liu Hun felt a numbness throughout his body, as if he had touched an electric gate, and his entire body began shaking violently, with a dragon’s chant exploding in his mind.
The Jade Pendant began resonating with the Silver Dragon inside Liu Hun’s body!
All of sudden, Liu Hun’s vision darkened, and he felt as if he were surrounded by chaos, with dark clouds overhead and the vast earth beneath his feet.
Between heaven and earth, Liu Hun felt like a trapped mayfly, only able to watch anxiously at the overwhelming and eerily spectacular scene.
“Yin!
Yin!”
Two dragon chants ca from heaven and earth; Liu Hun watched helplessly as the Silver Dragon tore through the dark clouds, like a sharp blade piercing armor, carrying a devouring force that made even the skies bow down!
On the ground, it was as if mountains were forming, peaks rising, and with the rise of the land, a black dragon appeared like an ax opening the mountains, splitting the earth with furious might, making the dense soil tremble!
Two dragons, one above and one below amongst the heavens and the earth, wrapped in wind and clouds, charged towards Liu Hun!
With Dragon Power above, Liu Hun instinctively closed his eyes, resigning himself to fate!
“Mr.
Liu!
Are you alright?
What happened to you?”
“Huff, huff, huff…” Liu Hun, drenched in sweat, sat back in the driver’s seat, looking at the calm surroundings as if he had just plumted into an illusion.
“Are you okay?” Shi Bi’er asked Liu Hun with concern, having seen him stop his car outside but not appearing for quite so ti, prompting her to co out.
Liu Hun wiped the sweat beads from his forehead and said, “I’m fine, I’m fine.
What brought you out here?”
“I saw your car parked nicely, but when you didn’t co out, I got worried,” Shi Bi’er replied, her heart skipping a beat as she spoke.
Liu Hun steadied himself, asked Shi Bi’er to get in the car, then scanned his surroundings, not finding the Eastern Han Jade Pendant anywhere.
He didn’t think much about it, assuming it must have fallen inside the car.
Once Shi Bi’er got into the car, she shared with Liu Hun the difficulties her career was facing these days.
Liu Hun quickly cald down, now needing to help Shi Bi’er out of her plight; the earlier bizarre incident would have to wait to be contemplated when he had free ti.
“Let’s start with a single, casting a stone to gauge the market’s response,” Liu Hun suggested to Shi Bi’er, having formulated a plan.
Shi Bi’er nodded, accustod to being a celebrity with scant attention to details, relying on her manager to handle everything.
“Tell , who is the best person you know for writing the lyrics and music for this kind of dance track?
We’ll visit him, buy his lyrics and music.
That’s the first step!” Liu Hun asked Shi Bi’er.
“Xiu Songling,” Shi Bi’er thought for a mont and said.
“Do you know where he lives?” Liu Hun asked further.
“Yes, I know,” Shi Bi’er nodded in response.
Without delay, the two set off, Liu Hun driving Shi Bi’er to the hillside villa of Liu Songling.
After ringing the doorbell and explaining their identities and purpose, Liu Hun and Shi Bi’er waited outside for quite a while before the door finally opened, and a servant led them into the living room.
True to that of a renowned music producer, not only was the villa luxurious but it also exuded a rich artistic ambiance.
As Liu Hun and Shi Bi’er entered the living room, they saw not only Liu Songling on the couch but also another person familiar to Shi Bi’er, the female singer—Deng Qi.
Liu Songling, unremarkable in appearance but wearing a pair of black-frad glasses and a braid at the back of his head, had quite the artistic look.
anwhile, Deng Qi had large wavy hair, a leather outfit with tall boots, large earrings, and although her face wasn’t fine-featured, she had a sowhat wild charm.
The deep V-cut of her leather jacket exposed a dizzying cleavage that drew the eye.
“Please have a seat,” Liu Songling, without getting up, simply gestured to the sofa opposite for them to sit down.
