Chapter 344 The Book Number Was Blocked by the Enemy

Lin Yuyao said, "Let's go ask tomorrow."

Song Qin nodded and said, "Okay."

The next day, they asked Lin Ping to stay at home to look after the house, and the two of them went out again.

I went directly to the National Copyright Administration to inquire.

Song Qin was familiar with the place and found the corresponding person in charge directly.

"Brother Wang, I calculated the time and it's almost time. It still hasn't been approved. Can you help me see if there's something wrong?"

The man searched for a while and said to them, "The review and approval of your magazine is not my responsibility."

This book was first published on Taiwan Novel Network → 𝖙𝖜𝖐𝖆𝖓.𝖈𝖔𝖒, providing you with a reading experience with perfect chapters and no disordered chapters.

"Ah? Who's in charge of that?"

"A new person has come recently and is in charge of the place. Please wait a moment. He is not here at the moment."

"OK."

The two sat down on the benches opposite each other. After a while, they saw a familiar person sitting at the workstation next to Brother Wang.

Song Qin's eyes widened, "Minister Niu?"

Bald Cow raised his eyelids, glanced at them, sneered, and then lowered his head to look through the documents.

Song Qin and Lin Yuyao looked at each other.

"Why is he here?" Lin Yuyao asked.

Song Qin was also confused, "I don't know. When I left, I saw him being taken away for investigation."

Both of them had a bad feeling in their hearts and thought, could their magazine be in Minister Niu's hands?

You should be more confident, I'm sure you are there.

"I'm going to argue with him. I want to see what basis he has for blocking us."

"Hey!" Lin Yuyao held him back and said, "It's useless to look for him. He might even humiliate us." There were many people here, so Lin Yuyao thought for a moment and said, "Let's go out and discuss it. Let's first find out why he is here."

Song Qin nodded, and the two went out together.

Then, just as I went downstairs, I ran into Chen Bingzhi who had just returned from outside with a stack of documents.

"Hey, why are you here?"

"We're here for something, Bingzhi, it's great to see you. Are you free now? We have something to ask you."

Chen Bingzhi and Song Qin have been colleagues for more than a year and have become familiar with each other.

He had a lot of things in his hands and said to them, "Wait a moment, I'll bring the things up."

"Okay, then we'll go wait for you by the flowerbed in front."

"good."

The Publishing Bureau and the Ministry of Culture are in the same office building, belonging to the same organization but with two names.

I heard before that Chen Bingzhi was transferred to the Ministry of Culture, so it’s normal to meet him here.

The two of them arrived at the flower bed and sat on the chairs nearby to wait.

After waiting for a while, Chen Bingzhi came out.

He looked around, saw Song Qin and Lin Yuyao, and trotted towards them.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, tell us what's going on."

"Alas! He has been transferred here now."

They looked puzzled.

"Wasn't he arrested for gambling and investigated?"

"Yes, but he is gambling in Macau, so it is not against the law."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

Song Qin: “…”

Lin Yuyao said, "But he is a public servant."

"Yes, so he received the corresponding disciplinary punishment and could no longer be the president. He was transferred out of his position and transferred here."

Lin Yuyao and Song Qin looked at each other.

I thought that although he was removed from the position of president and changed from a manager to a working employee, he still joined the publishing bureau.

Even though such a big incident happened, he was just dismissed and transferred to another position.

Lin Yuyao and Song Qin both felt unhappy.

Lin Yuyao then asked, "Then if he asked us to sign a free license, it doesn't count?"

"How can I explain this?" Chen Bingzhi said tangledly, "In our opinion, he did force the author to some extent, but he put a knife to your neck, not a gun to your head, so how can you say he forced you? Several people signed, all voluntarily."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

Song Qin nodded and said, "At the time, we told them that the free licensing was for the purpose of opening up overseas markets. Everyone was trying to make money in the future. They really all signed the contract voluntarily."

Therefore, it is impossible to force the author to sign a free license.

"Where was the kickback he took?" Lin Yuyao asked again.

Chen Bingzhi sighed and said, "That's where the problem lies. We couldn't find out whether he took kickbacks."

"Ah?" Song Qin said anxiously, "He must have taken it. Didn't we find out that he authorized it for free on the surface, but actually sold the copyrights in private?"

"Do you have evidence?"

Song Qin: “…”

"Did you see the money, or did the copyright holder admit to giving him the money? How can you convict him if there is nothing?"

Song Qin and Lin Yuyao were both speechless.

So, he just got away with it.

Lin Yuyao: "Does he have someone above him?"

"Oh, he has someone above him. He has no money, and we all guessed that he took the money and used it to pay off his gambling debts, or used the copyright to pay off his gambling debts, but we have no evidence. His superiors helped him to make ends meet, removed him from his position, and transferred him to another position, and that's it."

It's really infuriating, this is related to the household.

But there was nothing they could do.

"By the way, you guys didn't come here today just to ask about the old cow, did you?"

"No, he beat us to the plate in applying for a book number. We are waiting for publication, but we still can't get a book number."

Chen Bingzhi looked at Lin Yuyao, "Did you say you are Chief Fu's granddaughter-in-law?"

Lin Yuyao shook her head, "No."

"Why don't you tell me?"

Why should I say it?

Fu Huaiyi doesn't even want to be a relative household, but she is rushing to become one. What will people think?

She was reluctant to say anything until it was absolutely necessary.

"I don't want to say that I followed the normal process and was legal and compliant, and I could have applied for it, but I was blocked by a villain."

"Hey, this is very normal. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. I'll help you."

Both of them brightened up.

"Comrade Chen Bingzhi, thank you."

Chen Bingzhi smiled and said, "You're welcome. Wait for me here for a while. I'll run errands for you."

"Okay, if you can come down today, I'll treat you to dinner later." Lin Yuyao said happily.

"No problem."

Isn't it almost lunch time? Hopefully it'll be quick.

Chen Bingzhi went to the publishing office opposite and went directly to the office of Lao Niu's boss.

"Xiao Chen, why are you here today?"

"Uncle Zhao, let me tell you something."

"Tell me what's going on."

"That's right, I saw Chief Fu's granddaughter-in-law downstairs."

Lao Zhao: "Chief Fu's granddaughter-in-law, what is she doing here?"

"She came to ask about the book number. She is a writer and now she has her own magazine company that publishes a monthly magazine."

The image of the beautiful bride that day came to Lao Zhao’s mind. What did his wife say at that time?

They said that she came from an ordinary family and had only beautiful looks, so she was not worthy of being the chief's grandson.

Since he is a writer, he also opened his own magazine company to publish a monthly magazine, which shows that he is very capable.

Cultured person.

I knew it, how could the Fu family marry a useless vase?

"Oh, that's good." Why did this kid suddenly tell him this alone?
