China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 938 The Interests of the People

It sounded like a bad joke. He asked calmly, "Why me?"

Li Bing did not answer immediately, but carefully looked at the man in front of her. His former sharp edge was deliberately hidden, replaced by a calmness that was almost dull. But the occasional gleam in his eyes could not escape Li Bing's keen observation. She knew that this man was much more complicated than he seemed.

"Because you are the most suitable one." Li Bing finally said, "We need someone who is influential in the entertainment industry to complete a special task."

"Special mission?" Lin Gao raised his eyebrows, with a hint of amusement in his tone, "What mission? Spying on intelligence? Or being an undercover agent?"

Li Bing smiled slightly and did not answer directly. Instead, he took out a document from his bag and handed it to Lin Gao. "You will understand after reading this."

Lin Gao took the document and flipped through it casually. The document recorded a huge transnational criminal group that used the entertainment industry to conduct illegal activities such as money laundering and drug trafficking. Lin Gao's mission was to infiltrate the group, collect evidence, and assist the police in catching them all.

After reading the document, Lin Gao threw it on the table and sneered: "You really think highly of me. I have already retired from the entertainment industry. Why do you think I will help you?"

Li Bing had expected Lin Gao to react like this. She said calmly, "Mr. Lin, I know your sister's death was a big blow to you. But are you really willing to let the murderers go unpunished? This mission is not only to serve the country, but also a chance to avenge your sister."

Li Bing's words touched Lin Gao's sore spot. He clenched his fists, and a trace of pain and anger flashed in his eyes. He knew that what Li Bing said was right, but he really didn't want to go back to that circle full of intrigue.

"I need time to think about it." Lin Gao finally said.

Li Bing nodded: "Okay. I'll wait for your reply here."

After Li Bing left, Lin Gao sat alone in the house, lost in thought. He looked at the flowers blooming outside the window, his heart full of contradictions and struggles. On one side was a peaceful pastoral life, and on the other side was a mission full of dangers and challenges. How should he choose?

Three days later, Lin Gao appeared in front of Li Bing again.

"I promise you." Lin Gao said with a firm tone.

"Very good." Li Bing nodded with satisfaction. "Next, we will arrange everything for you."

A month later, the entertainment industry was once again in turmoil. Lin Gao, who had disappeared for a long time, unexpectedly announced his comeback!

The news quickly made headlines in major media outlets, attracting widespread attention and discussion.

"Lin Gao is back! The king is back!"

"Lin Gao, we have been waiting for you for a long time!"

“Looking forward to Lin Gao’s new work!”

Fans cheered, the media rushed to report it, and the entire entertainment industry was boiling with excitement.

Lin Gao once again stood in the spotlight, but he was no longer the simple artist he once was. He came with a mission, he wanted to avenge his sister and fight for justice in his own way.

The first thing Lin Gao did after his comeback was to announce the establishment of his own entertainment company - "Nirvana Entertainment".

"Rebirth from the Nirvana, soaring out of the fire." This is Lin Gao's message to the new company, and also his expectation for himself.

With his influence and connections in the entertainment industry, Lin Gao quickly assembled a strong team, signed several promising newcomers, and began to prepare for a big-budget movie.

At the same time, Lin Gao also began to contact the transnational criminal group. He used his identity and status to gradually approach the core members of the group.

He attended various high-end cocktail parties, made friends with various dignitaries, and quietly collected intelligence. He even deliberately created some scandals to attract media attention in order to cover up his true purpose.

At a private party, Lin Gao met Zhao Tianlong, the second in command of the group. Zhao Tianlong was a businessman who looked elegant on the surface but was actually sinister. He controlled many resources in the entertainment industry and was involved in both the black and white worlds. Lin Gao knew that Zhao Tianlong was a key figure in the entire group. As long as he could get a handle on him, he could disintegrate the entire criminal group.

He began to deliberately approach Zhao Tianlong, calling him a brother and trying to get information from him. Zhao Tianlong also admired Lin Gao and thought he was an ambitious and capable young man.

The two often go out together in various occasions, drinking and chatting happily. To outsiders, they are friends who cherish each other, but in fact, they are testing and using each other.

Lin Gao was respectful to Zhao Tianlong on the surface, but secretly he was investigating his evidence. He used his intelligence and means to get closer to the truth step by step.

However, Zhao Tianlong was not a pushover. He noticed something was wrong with Lin Gao and began to test and monitor him.

A war without the smoke of gunpowder is quietly unfolding...

Lin Gao took the document and flipped through it casually.

The documents describe in detail the smuggling activities of a transnational criminal group and how they use the entertainment industry to launder money and transmit intelligence.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. This was almost as he expected, so cliché that it couldn't be more cliché.

"So, what do you want me to do?" Lin Gao closed the document, his tone filled with a hint of impatience.

"We need you to return to the entertainment industry, get close to the core figures of this criminal group, and obtain evidence of their crimes." Li Bing's tone was serious and earnest.

Lin Gao laughed, with a hint of self-mockery and disdain in his laughter.

"Do you think I will go back to the place where I lost everything?"

"I know you've been hurt, but this is for national security and for the good of the people."

There was a hint of pleading in Li Bing's voice.

"National security? The interests of the people?" Lin Gao repeated these two words, his eyes full of sarcasm.

"What does any of this have to do with me?"

Li Bing was silent. She knew Lin Gao's past and the pain he had suffered.

Lin Gao stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bustling crowd outside, and said in a low voice: "I'm tired, I just want to live a peaceful life."

"A quiet life?"

Li Bing's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, "Do you really think you can escape? Do you think you can forget everything in the past by hiding in this small town?"

Lin Gao turned around abruptly, his eyes filled with anger. "What do you mean?"

Li Bing walked up to Lin Gao, looked him straight in the eye, and said word by word: "Your sister, your lover, their death, was it really just an accident?"

Lin Gao was stunned, with a hint of panic in his eyes.

Li Bing continued, "I know you have been investigating the cause of their death. I know you suspect there is something else behind their death. And this criminal group is likely the mastermind behind it."
