Chapter 1248: Chapter 1233: Rules
Lin Yu gave a flirty wink to Song Yun and then whispered, “Today…my aunt didn’t co!”
“Oh?” Song Yun’s eyes lit up and he said, “And then?”
“Then… after the shoot, could you join
for dinner?” Lin Yu asked.
“Well, that depends,” Song Yun’s eyes shifted as he said, “Are you treating ?”
“Consider it paynt,” Lin Yu laughed, “Consider it paynt for accompanying
here today.”
“Does it include the workout after dinner?” Song Yun asked.
“That depends on your performance.”
Lin Yu gave Song Yun an extrely alluring smile, then turned aside to adjust her clothes. With a serious expression, Lin Yu picked up the microphone, faced the cara, and said, “Dear viewers…”
Just as Lin Yu was recording, a man in his thirties erged from the Golden Saint Real Estate side and shouted, “Hey, which unit are you from? Who allowed you to shoot here?”
Lin Yu turned to look at the man and said, “We’re from the Sunan Province TV Station.”
“The province station? Does that an you can film anywhere as you please? Turn off the equipnt first,” the man, seemingly with quite the temper, walked directly up to Lin Yu and ordered.
Lin Yu had a pretty good temper and was only there for appearances today, so she didn’t bother with the man’s tone and said, “We have the right to public oversight. We’re here today just to have a look at this incident.”
The man, being clever, imdiately understood that Lin Yu’s presence was just for formality upon hearing her words. His initially serious expression vanished, replaced by a slight smile.
“We greatly welco dia friends to pay attention to this matter. Ah, this issue, it was all fine at first, but… but so village leaders incited the villagers to make a fuss, alarming you guys, really sorry about that,” the man said, “I’m Yao Xiaoming, the regional manager for Golden Saint Real Estate in Sunan.”
Lin Yu was surprised by the speed at which this manager nad Yao Xiaoming changed his attitude, but she also smiled and nodded, saying, “I’m Lin Yu!”
“Ah, I rember you!”
Yao Xiaoming laughed and said, “You’re the news program host from Sunan Province TV! Wow, last ti I drank with your station manager, he even talked about you, saying you’re young and promising!”
“Ha ha, Manager Yao, this ti our station manager just directed us to co. Now, there are rumors in the city that a big incident happened here, and so are even saying online that a riot has started. Can you tell us what exactly is going on here?” Lin Yu said as she picked up the microphone facing Yao Xiaoming, while the caraman pressed the button to turn on the cara and nodded slightly.
Yao Xiaoming, apparently not facing a cara for the first ti, calmly said, “The cause of this matter is still due to the instigation by a few village officials. Our Golden Saint Real Estate had already obtained the rights to use this area from the local system more than a month ago, and regardless of whether it’s from the urban planning bureau or the construction bureau, we have all the necessary permits. It can be said that our developnt of this land is reasonable, fair, and legal. However, there are always so people who want more than their fair share. Our stance, along with the local system, is that we will never take advantage of others, but we also won’t allow others to take advantage of us.”
Lin Yu nodded, brought the microphone back to herself, and said to the cara, “We will continue to follow up on this incident.”
“Okay.”
The caraman called out, then turned off the cara.
“Really appreciate your help.”
Yao Xiaoming smiled graciously and said, “This matter should be resolved quickly. By then, we’ll provide your station with a satisfactory explanation.”
After speaking, Yao Xiaoming turned and walked away.
“Is it really that simple?” Song Yun walked up to Lin Yu, asking curiously.
“Of course,” Lin Yu said, “The station manager instructed us just like that, to interview the site manager. This kind of thing is just beginning; if we conduct too many interviews, it’s easy to offend people.”
“I thought you would at least interview so local villagers,” Song Yun said.
“Sigh, in matters like this, no matter who’s right or wrong, if you get involved, you’re not going to please either side. So we just have to watch the developnt unfold, and when things beco clear, we’ll continue investigating. If Golden Saint Real Estate can’t hold up, naturally we’ll side with the villagers. If the villagers can’t hold up, then we’ll side with Golden Saint Real Estate. Actually, all news reports work like this. Even on TV, when you see reporters filming illegal activities and getting obstructed, those are rare cases. Legitimate TV interviews are lukewarm like this; it’s called being moderate and is the least likely to cause trouble.”
“It seems every industry has its own rules.”
Song Yun said, “Not only in our circle or the system, but even the TV station works this way. So many rules everywhere.”
“Actually, I am biased toward the villagers,” Lin Yu said helplessly, “Look at those farrs, who’ve lived here for generations, suddenly being told to move. No matter how much money they get, being chased out of their land is hard to accept. And this hard acceptance could lead to various conflicts arising. But… when I ca, our station manager said the bias should be stronger towards Golden Saint Real Estate. The manager requested that we lean to Golden Saint Real Estate. Didn’t you hear him just now saying he had just had a drink with the manager a few days ago? In Shen Zhou, this kind of collusion is blatant, but you’re powerless, you can only eat their food and do their work.”
“You’re really quite insightful!” Song Yun laughed, “But for things like this, even if it’s not you, I can’t help it either. Frankly, I’m just like those business connections you ntioned, doing this kind of trade. Soone must sacrifice so we can live better and more comfortably than others. My life’s creed is don’t block
from climbing upward, or I’ll kick you down hard. Alright, there’s nothing much to see here, let’s go.”
Lin Yu nodded and said, “It’s almost ti to leave. Soon they’ll probably start suppressing.”
Just as Lin Yu finished speaking,
Golden Saint Real Estate people started moving.
People from Golden Saint Real Estate, urban managent, along with so police, approached the nearly thousand villagers on the other side, and besides them were various bulldozers and trucks.
The ground rumbled suddenly, as if a battle was about to take place.
