Crazy Entertainment System

"Fine!" Chen Yu was completely defeated. He naively thought he was going to get millions of copies, but now, he could only manage 180,000 at most.

Chen Yu plans to take two days off to spend quality time with his family and girlfriend.

But things don't always go as planned, and the next morning before nine o'clock, someone knocked on the door.

Wearing a black suit, he gave off a very capable vibe, but also a dangerous aura.

"You must be Mr. Chen Yu?!" the leading man said softly, but with great confidence. Chen Yu knew this was definitely a symbol of strength.

"I am, and you are?!" Chen Yu nodded, looking at the two very cautiously, ready to retaliate immediately if anything went wrong, while Li Xiaolong's abilities were also ready at any time.

"Mr. Chen, please don't be nervous. We are from Zhongnanhai. The Second Leader wishes to meet you! Do you have time, Mr. Chen?" The leading man smiled imperceptibly at Chen Yu's reaction.

"Who is this 'number two leader' you're referring to?!" Chen Yu pointed upwards and asked.

"Ok!"

"How can you prove it?!" Chen Yu asked cautiously. He wasn't going to believe the other party's one-sided support.

"This is our identification. You can call the number on this page to verify it!" The other person said, taking out a small reddish-brown booklet and handing it to Chen Yu.

After Chen Yu opened it, he asked Xiao You a question.

"Xiaoyou, are these documents and the person real?!"

"It's true. Both of them are from Zhongnanhai, bodyguards of the second-in-command," Xiao You answered. Having received Xiao You's reply, Chen Yu felt reassured, knowing that they had made connections with higher-ups.

"No need, I trust you. I sense a familiar scent on you," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"A familiar taste?!" the other person asked, puzzled.

"You two have the air of soldiers, and loyal soldiers at that. You must both come from military backgrounds. Let's go!" Chen Yu nodded and chuckled.

"Mr. Chen is indeed no ordinary person. We two brothers have seen his true colors. Well then, Mr. Chen, please!"

After getting into the car and driving for about half an hour, the car stopped after entering an alley.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry!" the other party suddenly said, and Chen Yu felt a gust of wind, then lost consciousness.

When he woke up, he found that he had arrived at his destination.

"Can't you be a little more civilized?!" Chen Yu rubbed his neck and said with dissatisfaction.

"Sorry, we were just following the rules! We were in a rush and didn't have time to bring our equipment," the tall, thin man said.

"Okay, I don't want to experience it a second time, it was too uncomfortable. So, what should we do next?" Chen Yu sighed and said softly.

"Please follow us!"

Led by the other party, Chen Yu finally met the legendary number two leader, but there were several other people in the room. They were all quite old, probably at least fifty or sixty.

"Greetings, esteemed leaders!" Chen Yu rubbed his neck again and said softly.

This is a protest.

The second-in-command was indeed a shrewd man; he saw through Chen Yu's thoughts at a glance.

"Xiao Li, you've resorted to violence again. How many times have I told you to get out of here? Do 2000 push-ups. If you don't finish them, I'll teach you a lesson!" the second-in-command said to the tall man who brought him there.

"Yes, sir!" Xiao Li answered without any objection, standing at attention.

"Forget it, everyone's having a tough time. But next time let's just video chat, it'll save us the trouble and be more convenient," Chen Yu said with a smile. He then added...

"Um, may I sit down?!" Chen Yu asked hesitantly. After all, it was the first time he had seen such a high-ranking leader. This was the number two leader. He had never seen such a high-ranking official before.

Those who were reborn and saw such a high-ranking official didn't feel anything at all. They sat down casually and swaggered around to negotiate.

That's all nonsense. When it really comes down to it, I'm still very nervous.

"Sure, don't be nervous, we're not man-eating tigers!" the second-in-command laughed.

"Hehe!" Chen Yu chuckled, waiting for the second-in-command to continue.

"Do you know why I called you here today?!" Number Two asked.

"It's definitely not because I'm handsome or sing well!" Chen Yu said.

"You're quite confident?!" Number Two laughed.

"A person can't lack self-confidence, otherwise what can they do? Chief, just say what you have to say!" Chen Yu felt very uneasy. He wanted to clarify things as soon as possible and then leave. He just didn't feel right.

"I won't make things difficult for you. I've called you here for three things. The first is about your music career," Number Two said with a wry smile.

"Music? What's wrong with my music? I haven't done anything illegal, have I?!" Chen Yu asked in astonishment.

"I didn't say your music was illegal. Old Yan told you before that your Chinese style music could be considered a pioneering school of its own, right?!"

"Yes, it was mentioned!" Chen Yu nodded, thinking to himself that if that was the case, then it shouldn't be a bad thing.

"That's right. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, our great-grandfather has inherited a tradition that those who establish their own school of thought and become masters in the arts and entertainment field will be given very generous rewards."

The so-called master position requires someone to establish a school of thought, and a major one at that.

There are certain criteria for judgment.

Either they made a groundbreaking breakthrough in a major cultural field, or they wouldn't be considered a grandmaster.

It's important to know that the state awards a cash prize of 1 million yuan and the highest cultural contribution medal to those who achieve the Grandmaster level. They are also given a temporary position as a vice-national-level official and assigned two bodyguards from Zhongnanhai (the central government compound).

Since the founding of the nation, only three people have achieved the rank of Grandmaster, and all three are elderly people over fifty years old.

All three have now passed away.

They are geniuses, geniuses in cultural history.

But such geniuses are destined not to live past 65; everyone dies at 64.

Your grades are quite outstanding, meeting all the standards, the only problem is that you are too young.

Giving you a vice-national level title would be somewhat unreasonable, as it would easily attract gossip and wouldn't be good for your future development. Therefore, after several discussions, we decided to grant you the civilian rank of major and the status of a representative to the National People's Congress.

As compensation, all your companies will be exempt from taxes for five years and subject to half-taxation for life.

In addition, official support was provided for Weibo.

"It can serve as an officially certified publicity platform. What do you think?!" the second-in-command inquired, but Chen Yu understood that this wasn't a question; it was a direct statement telling her that this was their decision.

However, the compensation is acceptable.

"All companies are exempt from taxes for five years and subject to half-taxation for life."

Chen Yu believed they would regret this compensation later.

Moreover, the rank of major is not bad, but it is a civilian position. If we really consider it a military rank, it is about the same as a lieutenant.
