Zhao Wenshu looked at Zou Wenhuai and remembered Chu Tianyao's explanation before leaving.
"It's very simple. Scandals have been breaking out in the three major theater chains all the time. You just need to make a fuss about it."
"I am very eager to see what Xiang Huaming's reaction will be after you seal down these three major theaters!"
Zou Wenhuai's face was also full of sneers, Zhao Wenshu nodded and raised his wine glass to clink it with him.
“A pleasure to work with!”
After the banquet, Zou Wenhuai, smelling of alcohol, was put in the car by his assistant.
After arriving home, Zou Wenhuai suddenly woke up and seemed to remember something important.
He took out his phone and dialed Chu Tianyao's number.
"Hello?
Boss Zou, how is the situation?"
"Don't worry, I've already taken care of it..."
Having said this, Zou Wenhuai stopped saying anything, and then there was a faint sound of snoring.
Hearing this voice, Chu Tianyao was slightly startled at first, but then he immediately reacted.
It is estimated that Zou Wenhuai spent a lot of effort on this trip, and Chu Tianyao was very moved.
He hung up the phone silently and glanced at the bright moon outside the window.
"Then there should be a good show to watch after dawn tomorrow!"
When Zou Wenhuai woke up the next day, he found that there were many missed calls on his mobile phone.
He looked down and saw that they were all from Zhao Wenshu, so he called back immediately.
"Lao Zou, you haven't answered all the calls I've made. It seems like you drank a lot last night!"
"Sorry, I didn't delay things, did I?"
Zhao Wenshu heard that Zou Wenhuai was so nervous, so he immediately explained.
"Of course not, I just want to tell you that we have set off."
"After the three major theater chains in Hong Kong City are shut down, you have to find a way to take over!"
From Zhao Wenshu's perspective, he still doesn't want every decision he makes to plunge Hong Kong City into panic.
With so many theaters closed at one time, it is hard for outside public opinion not to discuss anything.
At this time, Zou Wenhuai gave professional advice from industry insiders.
"Don't worry about this. You can keep one or two theaters at will when the time comes."
"Besides, it doesn't matter even if you ban them all, this will just bring spring to other small theaters!"
Zou Wenhuai knew very well that when the three major theater chains monopolized the market.
It’s not just Zou Wenhuai and Xiang Huaming who want to get in and get a piece of the pie, there are also many theater owners outside who are eager to try.
"So that's the case. You are the expert, so I feel more at ease."
"You can get up now, take a shower, and then wait and watch the news!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Wenshu waved his hand, and the tax bureau's car went faster and faster, heading straight for the three major chain theaters.
At about ten o'clock, Ada Cinema welcomed its first wave of guests, which made executive Hu Yuanlong feel a little more relaxed.
The business of Ada Cinema has been getting worse and worse recently, which has made him a little restless.
After all, there was Chu Tianyao before him and his boss Zong Hongguang behind him.
Hu Yuanlong was caught in the middle and was under tremendous pressure almost all the time.
After the first batch of guests came in, the theater was still operating normally.
Unexpectedly, a group of law enforcement officers suddenly rushed in and immediately set up a yellow cordon.
"What are you doing?
Who are you?"
Hu Yuanlong suddenly became angry because the cordon directly blocked the only entrance and exit of the cinema.
Many customers who didn't know the truth were blocked outside with puzzled faces.
"We are from the tax bureau. After reporting, we discovered that your theater is distributing bad films and is suspected of tax evasion!"
"From today on, your theater is closed!"
Zhao Wenshu walked out slowly and took out a ban order.
When this ban was posted at the door of the theater, Hu Yuanlong's face suddenly turned extremely pale.
No matter how brave he is, he will never be able to fight against the people from the tax bureau.
So Hu Yuanlong could only grit his teeth and endure it, drive out all the customers who had already entered, and then accept the investigation obediently.
Hu Yuanlong took some time and hurriedly called to report the situation to Zong Hongguang.
"Boss, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"What's the good news?"
"The good news is that our business has gradually returned to normal today!"
"What about the bad news?"
At this time, Hu Yuanlong took a deep breath and finally plucked up the courage to speak.
"The bad news is that people from the tax bureau came and closed down our theater!"
"What should we do now!"
After saying this, Hu Yuanlong thought that he would be scolded like before.
Who knew that Zong Hongguang on the other side of the phone looked calm.
"Yeah?
There is nothing we can do about that.”
"No matter what, you have to accept the investigation obediently, you know?"
"I know, boss."
After hanging up the phone, a smile gradually appeared on Zong Hongguang's face.
Because through this phone call, he knew that the plan Chu Tianyao mentioned had already begun to be implemented.
After Zhao Wenshu sealed this place, he asked his men to seal other Ada Cinema chain stores.
He did not expect that the seizure process would go so smoothly. With doubts in his mind, Zhao Wenshu immediately set off for the Victoria Cinema.
When we arrived at the Victoria Cinema, there were indeed more customers coming to watch the movie.
In order not to cause panic, Zhao Wenshu could only walk to the crowd with a loudspeaker in person to inform everyone of the purpose of this operation.
When the same cordon was raised and a ban was posted on the door, everything was settled.
Victoria Cinema executive Wu Jiafu also reported the bad news to Cha Junzhe.
His reaction was similar to Zong Hongguang's, he just told him that he would cooperate with the investigation, and there was no other explanation.
The two consecutive seizure operations were so smooth, Zhao Wenshu was not a fool.
He immediately guessed something and quickly called Zou Wenhuai.
"Lao Zou, I have sealed two of the three major theater chains."
"Yeah?
Then Director Zhao is really quick to act!"
"Don't do this. My action went very smoothly. Did you pave the way in advance?"
As soon as these words came out, Zou Wenhuai knew that he could no longer hide it, so he told everything about his and Chu Tianyao's plans.
After hearing this, Zhao Wenshu suddenly realized.
"I see, if I had known I wouldn't have come, it would have forced me to make a trip!"
Although Zhao Wenshu was complaining on his lips, he didn't think so in his heart.
If he had known earlier, Zou Wenhuai would have already taken care of the three major theater chains, and the seizure was just a formality.
Then Zhao Wenshu can indeed stay away and just drink tea in the office with peace of mind.
"Don't be angry, Director Zhao. If you were notified of this kind of thing in advance, it wouldn't have the original flavor."
After Zou Wenhuai's explanation, Zhao Wenshu finally understood.
From a certain perspective, this seizure operation still requires the intervention of Director Zhao Wenshu.
Because Zhao Wenshu is the director of the tax bureau after all, when he comes forward, he will definitely make the front page of the news.
Just imagine, if Xiang Huaming saw this kind of news, I don’t know what he would think.
"I see. Although it sounds like I'm being used as a gunman, I'm also willing."
"Old Zou, you owe me a drink!"
When Zhao Wenshu said these words, Zou Wenhuai knew that the other party was no longer obsessed with the matter in front of him.
So Zou Wenhuai immediately agreed.
"Don't worry! After the operation is over, I will personally invite you to my house for a drink!"
As time passed, Zhao Wenshu quickly closed down Menglong Cinema.
He adopted Zou Wenhuai's advice and basically left only one or two of the three major theater chains open for normal operations.
Basically all the rest have been blocked, and there is not even any notice of when they will be unblocked.
After doing this, Zhao Wenshu notified Zou Wenhuai and returned to his office.
Zou Wenhuai smiled knowingly and quickly called Chu Tianyao.
"Director Zhao's operation is over and everything is going well now."
"I understand, Boss Zou, it's time for us to take action!"
Chu Tianyao snorted coldly, and he immediately notified the media reporters who had already made arrangements to rush to the scene of the incident.
When the media reporters heard that there was such breaking news, they ran faster than anyone else.
After arriving at the destination, I was able to take a photo of the scene where I was crowded with countless customers but could not open the door.
"Mr. Chu is here?
Are there any instructions?"
Chu Tianyao took the lead in bringing customers to the flagship store of Victoria Cinema, and Wu Jiafu saw him at a glance.
Then Chu Tianyao pointed at his eyes, and Wu Jiafu immediately understood.
He called a few employees and gave himself some eye drops.
The scene was extremely noisy, and many customers were still worried about whether the memberships they had purchased before could be used normally in the future.
At this moment, Wu Jiafu suddenly heard a "wow" sound and knelt at the door and started crying.
When the reporters saw this situation, they immediately called on their colleagues to shine their cameras on his face.
Wu Jiafu had outstanding acting skills and kept crying. Everyone else at the scene was a little moved after hearing this.
The same routine, under Chu Tianyao's hint, was also performed when they arrived at the other two major theaters.
After everything was recorded, Zou Wenhuai also sent the video recordings of Zhao Wenshu and others when they were enforcing the law.
Chu Tianyao took all this to the news media company and asked them to produce the most explosive news before the afternoon.
Time passed by in the evening, and Xiang Huaming was still taking advantage of the Chinese New Year holiday to be lazy at home.
The hangover last night made him feel better after sleeping until now.
But just after waking up, Xiang Huaming found that his phone was almost ringing.
"What's happening here?
Where do you get so many missed calls?”
Xiang Huaming searched carefully and found that in addition to the calls from his assistant, there were also missed calls from Zha Junzhe and others.
He thought carefully in his mind, and to be on the safe side, Xiang Huaming dialed his assistant's number immediately.
"What happened?
Why are you calling me so many times?"
"Boss, something big happened!"
"Just today, almost all the branches of the three major movie theater chains were sealed by the tax bureau!"
"What?
Is there such a thing?"
Xiang Huaming thought it was a prank at first, and the assistant continued.
"I don't dare to lie to you. Now you can turn on the TV and see the news."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Huaming immediately rushed to the living room, grabbed the remote control from his son's hand and jumped to the news station.
"According to our news, all the stores of the three major cinema chains in Hong Kong were closed this morning..."
After seeing the news, Xiang Huaming finally understood why there were so many calls from Zha Junzhe and others.
"Why did this come so unexpectedly?
I remember that I was handling matters at the tax bureau before!"
Xiang Huaming thought hard for a while, although his plan should not be exaggerated so that they would be exempted every time.
But at least the other party should inform him before taking action.
