The efficiency of the Supreme People's Procuratorate is truly remarkable.

That afternoon, Prosecutor Zhao assigned the task—to contact the actors on the contact list.

There was an old comrade in the political department named Liu Jianguo, who was over fifty years old and was in charge of liaising with the film and television industry. He had a wide network of connections and was very resourceful.

Zhao Jian slammed the cast list on his desk and said only one sentence: "Call them one by one and tell them that the Supreme People's Procuratorate is making an anti-corruption drama and wants them to act in it."

When Liu Jianguo saw the list, he exclaimed, "Wow, they're all top talents!"

He didn't waste any words and started fighting immediately.

The first call was to Wu Gang's agent.

Wu Gang is a national first-class actor with a background in drama, and his acting skills are exceptionally solid.

He can convincingly portray any role; he's widely recognized in the industry as a "drama fanatic."

The phone rang a few times before being answered.

"Hello, this is Professor Wu Gang's studio."

"Hello, this is Liu Jianguo from the Political Department of the Supreme People's Procuratorate. Is Mr. Wu Gang available? I have something I'd like to discuss with him."

There was a noticeable pause on the other end of the phone.

"The Supreme People's Procuratorate? Please wait a moment, I'll forward it to Teacher Wu right away!"

Less than ten seconds later, Wu Gang's voice rang out, tinged with seriousness: "Director Liu, hello, this is Wu Gang. What can I do for you?"

Liu Jianguo smiled and explained his purpose for coming.

After hearing this, Wu Gang said almost without hesitation: "An anti-corruption drama spearheaded by the Supreme People's Procuratorate? Okay, I'll take it."

Liu Jianguo was taken aback for a moment: "Teacher Wu, won't you take a look at the script first?"

"How could the script of a drama produced by the Supreme People's Procuratorate be bad?" Wu Gang laughed. "Besides, it's my honor to be able to contribute to the country's anti-corruption cause. What role? When to join the crew? You can decide."

Liu Jianguo secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart.

This is the true awareness of an old artist!

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jianguo dialed Zhang Zhijian's agent's number again.

Zhang Zhijian is also a veteran actor who has acted in many serious dramas. His presence alone exudes the aura of a leader.

"Hello, this is Professor Zhang Zhijian's studio."

"Hello, this is Liu Jianguo from the Political Department of the Supreme People's Procuratorate. Could you please transfer me to Teacher Zhang? I'd like to discuss a play with him."

Upon hearing the words "Supreme People's Procuratorate," the agent's tone immediately became enthusiastic: "Director Liu, please wait a moment, I'll call Teacher Zhang right away!"

Soon, Zhang Zhijian's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Director Liu, what brings you here?"

Liu Jianguo explained his purpose with a smile.

After listening, Zhang Zhi chuckled, "I was just wondering why I don't have any good scripts lately, and then you called. Answer it! I absolutely have to! A role in the Supreme People's Procuratorate's program is a prestigious job; how could I refuse?"

"So you're not going to read the script?"

"No need to look, I trust you."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jianguo felt that his job was far too easy.

The third call was to Zhang Fengyi's agency.

Zhang Fengyi is known for playing tough guys, having portrayed many soldiers and police officers, and possesses a powerful presence.

The call connected, and his agent, Xiao Wang, answered.

"Hello, this is Zhang Fengyi Studio."

"Hello, this is Liu Jianguo from the Political Department of the Supreme People's Procuratorate. I'd like to invite Ms. Zhang Fengyi to participate in an anti-corruption drama. Could you please pass on my invitation?"

There was a two-second silence on the other end.

"The Supreme People's Procuratorate? Please wait a moment, I'll ask Professor Zhang right away!"

Less than half a minute later, Zhang Fengyi answered the phone, his voice deep and strong: "Hello Director Liu, this is Zhang Fengyi. I'll accept the role you mentioned."

Before Liu Jianguo could elaborate, Zhang Fengyi added, "Don't worry about the salary, just give me a token amount. I'm not doing this for the money; it's a positive drama."

He made more than a dozen phone calls in one afternoon, and not a single person refused, not a single person asked about the pay, and most of them didn't even read the script before agreeing.

This demonstrates the Supreme People's Procuratorate's influence.

the other side.

Lin Mo locked himself in his workstation and began writing scripts like crazy.

In his previous life, he had watched "In the Name of the People" no less than ten times. He remembered every episode's plot, every classic line, and every scene transition clearly.

In addition, the person in question was already a writer, and their writing skills were quite good.

So when he wrote, it was incredibly smooth and flowing.

Three days.

A script that spans a full fifty-five episodes!

Lin Mo finished typing the last line, slumped into his chair, and let out a long sigh.

"Done!"

He checked the time; it was four o'clock in the afternoon.

Fortunately, Director Han should still be here.

Lin Mo printed out the script; it was a thick stack, heavy in his hand.

He held the script and knocked on Lao Han's office door.

"Enter."

Old Han was looking at documents when he saw Lin Mo come in carrying a stack of papers. He paused for a moment and asked, "What's this?"

"The script, the complete version of 'In the Name of the People,' fifty-five episodes." Lin Mo put the script on the table, his voice a little weak.

"Fifty-five episodes?" Old Han's eyes widened. "You wrote fifty-five episodes in three days?"

"I've already thought it through in my head, it's just that typing takes a little time."

Old Han picked up the top one and flipped through it.

It's not an outline, it's a proper script.

Character dialogue, scene descriptions, and emotion annotations are all included.

"You little brat..." Old Han opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Three days, fifty-five episodes.

Is this something a human being would do?

"Director Han, could you take a look first? I'll fix anything that's not right," Lin Mo said.

Old Han waved his hand: "It's too slow for me to look at it myself. Come on, follow me to the eighth floor, and we'll show it directly to Inspector Zhao."

"Now?"

"Right now!"

Eighth floor, Prosecutor Zhao's office.

When Lao Han knocked on the door and went in, Prosecutor Zhao was on the phone.

Seeing Lao Han and Lin Mo come in, he nodded to them, indicating that they should sit down first.

"Okay, it's settled then. Thank you for your cooperation."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Jian looked at the two of them, his gaze falling on the thick stack of papers that Lin Mo was holding.

"What is this?"

"Prosecutor Zhao, Lin Mo has finished writing the complete script," Old Han said first.

"Oh?" Zhao Jian's eyes lit up behind his glasses. "Let me take a look."

Lin Mo stepped forward and handed the script over with both hands.

Zhao Jian took it, but didn't rush to flip through it. He looked at the cover first.

In the Name of the People.

Screenwriter: Lin Mo.

"Nice layout," Zhao Jian casually remarked, then turned to the first volume.

The office fell silent.

The only sound was the soft rustling of Zhao Jian turning the pages.

Lin Mo and Lao Han sat on the sofa, not daring to breathe.

Time passed by, second by second.

Inspector Zhao examined the document very slowly and carefully.

Sometimes he would stop, take off his glasses, rub his eyes, and then put them back on to continue watching.

After an unknown amount of time, Prosecutor Zhao finally turned the last page.

He closed the script and placed it on the table.

I took off my glasses, leaned back in my chair, and closed my eyes for a while.

Old Han and Lin Mo exchanged a glance, neither daring to utter a sound.

About a minute later, Zhao Jian opened his eyes and looked at Lin Mo.

"Xiao Lin." His voice was a little hoarse.

"Prosecutor Zhao, please speak."

Zhao Jian stood up, walked around the desk, and stood in front of Lin Mo.

Lin Mo quickly stood up.

Zhao Jian patted his shoulder, twice forcefully.

"Great! Well written!"

These three words were spoken with a firm and powerful tone.

Lin Mo felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and her nose tingled with emotion.

"Prosecutor Zhao, you flatter me..."

"It's not an overstatement." Zhao Jian returned to his seat, pointing to the stack of scripts. "I knew this script was something special from the first episode. By the tenth episode, I couldn't put it down. By the end... this old man almost couldn't hold back."

Old Han was stunned as he listened from the side.

Who is Prosecutor Zhao?

How many storms has a real vice-ministerial level leader seen?

For a script to make him say something like "I almost couldn't hold back," it must be incredibly moving.

"Director Han." Inspector Zhao turned to look at Old Han.

"exist."

"Your publicity department has struck gold!"

Old Han quickly stood up: "Prosecutor Zhao, it's because Xiao Lin worked hard; I just helped him make the connection."

Zhao Jian waved his hand and looked at Lin Mo again: "Xiao Lin, are you confident you can film this script?"

"Yes!" Lin Mo replied loudly.

"Great!" Prosecutor Zhao waved his hand. "Then go for it! The court will fully support you! Funding, actors, venues—just name it, and I'll coordinate. There's only one requirement—"

Lin Mo straightened his back: "Please speak."

"Make this a good film! Make a work that will stand the test of time! Let the people see that we are truly fighting corruption, not just going through the motions!"

"Prosecutor Zhao, rest assured," Lin Mo said, emphasizing each word. "This drama will definitely live up to the name of the Supreme People's Procuratorate."

Zhao Jian nodded in satisfaction, then said to Lao Han, "Lao Han, you'll team up with Xiao Lin. He'll be in charge of the creative process, and you'll be in charge of coordination. If you encounter any difficulties, just come to me."

"Yes!" Old Han replied immediately.

After leaving Prosecutor Zhao's office, Lao Han patted Lin Mo on the back.

"You little rascal, you really showed off in front of Prosecutor Zhao today."

Lin Mo chuckled: "Director Han, isn't this all because you gave me this opportunity?"

"Stop flattering me," Old Han said, but his face lit up with a smile. "Let's go back to work. There's still a lot to do."

"Alright!"

Lin Mo walked briskly downstairs.

Back at his workstation, he stared at the fifty-five episodes of the script on his computer screen, thinking to himself—

"In the Name of the People"—this time, it's going to show the world what it's all about.
