"Commander Wang, my previous understanding of military life mostly came from related films and television shows. Writing based on such limited knowledge would be detached from reality. Could you give me a chance to go and observe firsthand in a real frontline unit?"
Liu Zi was making her own plans. She had never worked on military-themed works in her previous life, nor had she ever visited military units for research. Now that such a great opportunity was right in front of her, she was determined to seize it!
General Wang Wei was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"If I help you, what benefits will you give me in return?" Wang Wei wanted to tease Liu Zi.
Liu Zi hesitated for a moment, glancing at Commander Li and then at Yan Shuxiang.
Commander Li immediately spoke up: "Liu Zi! This piece was painstakingly arranged by Lao Yu; you can't just abandon him after you've served your purpose!"
It belongs to their regiment, and as the regimental leader, he has to fight for it for his subordinates!
"Commander Li, don't worry. Although I'm the composer, Teacher Yu Hai is also the arranger. His arrangement is perfect for me. How could I forget him?" Liu Zi said with a helpless smile. Why would Commander Li think that way?
"That's good, no problem, I have connections too. You just want to visit the military camp for inspiration, right? I can help you arrange that." Commander Li lowered his voice considerably for the last part of his sentence. After all, he was the head of the military band, so these connections were no problem for him.
General Wang Wei saw the two whispering to each other not far from him and quietly moved closer.
To prepare for the National Day celebrations, all military regions across the country received a notice. A few days ago, the political commissar complained to him that their military region's objectives were similar to those of other military regions. The preparatory group told them to negotiate among themselves.
With National Day just a few months away, and now that he has such a great opportunity, he, as the commander, must make the most of it.
"Li Xin! I think your military band is still a bit short in terms of personnel. After all, National Day is a big event. Can we borrow some members from our military region's band?" Commander Wang said enthusiastically.
Commander Li was not someone who could be easily fooled; he looked at Commander Wang with a hint of wariness.
"Li Xin, why are you looking at me like I'm a thief?" Commander Wang was amused by his gaze.
"I wouldn't dare, Commander Wang." Regiment Commander Li shrugged, but in his heart he was thinking, "So you're just trying to be a thief! Who else should I guard against if not you?"
"I think Commander Wang is right. The military band is indeed short-handed." Liu Zi nodded. The outdoor space is large, and it would be a real problem if there were fewer instruments.
"Liu Zi..." Commander Li was a little anxious. Their regiment could send someone over. It was just playing the war drum, he could do that too.
"Don't worry, I have an idea, take a look!" Liu Zi knew what they were anxious about; it was all because of the honor they had been trying to achieve.
"I know you all want to have your names listed on the nomination list, but the organizing committee didn't say you could only list one unit! You can list the military band or the Beijing Military Region!" Liu Zi tried to be fair to everyone.
Wang Jian, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. Had his boss squeezed out his own studio?
At this moment, Yan Shuxiang hesitated before speaking up: "Although the submitting units are to be filled in by the reporting program units themselves, in principle, no more than two can be selected."
"That's not over the limit! Military band, Beijing Military Region, exactly two!" Liu Zi didn't see anything wrong with it.
"What about your own studio?" Yan Shuxiang had done a background check on Liu Zi.
Wang Jian nodded in agreement.
"Our studio is too small, no one would pay attention even if we wrote it, so we won't write it." Liu Zi waved her hand indifferently. Now that she, the boss, is famous, people will naturally come to her studio, so there's no need to go to the trouble.
Although Wang Jian had already sensed his boss's meaning, he still lowered his head dejectedly after hearing her decision.
well!
The working class has no voice!
General Wang Wei's eyes lit up. "This is a great idea!"
Regiment Commander Li felt bitter. He had thought that since they were the only unit in the military, all the honors would belong to them, but now he had to share half of them.
"Liu Zi, would you like to reconsider? I can send you on field trips, to any military unit across the country." Commander Li stated directly.
"You, Li Xin!" General Wang Wei was displeased; this kid was trying to poach his men right in front of him.
"Commander Li, I want to join the special forces. My TV series has a plot about a soldier growing into a king of soldiers, so the place I go to is a bit special." Liu Zi said with some difficulty. She wasn't willing to go anywhere just anytime.
Liu Zi noticed General Wang Wei's frown.
"Commander, rest assured, my background is not a problem. My father was also a soldier, and both my parents are now government employees. Before joining the army, I can sign a confidentiality agreement, and the script I write can be submitted to you for review. If the Beijing Military Region is interested, we can also cooperate on filming." Liu Zi immediately explained her background to dispel General Wang's concerns. At this time, the special forces in China were still in a strict confidentiality phase and were not easily revealed to the outside world.
"Give me three days. We need to investigate. If there are no problems, our agreement will take effect immediately." General Wang Wei made his decision after some consideration.
"Thank you." Liu Zi beamed with joy; she was one step closer to establishing her media company.
Liu Zi stopped interfering with the subsequent collaboration between the two military bands. As long as the music was performed to her liking, that was enough; she couldn't get involved in anything more.
Liu Zi was unaware of her popularity. Two days later, Liu Daqiang approached her to inquire if she had any works to submit for application, suggesting that the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau could provide assistance.
Liu Zi had no choice but to tell her father what had happened before. He was late, and the matter had already been decided.
This can't be kept secret. Once it's made public, her name will be exposed. Rather than making things difficult for my dad at work later, it's better to tell him now.
Liu Daqiang was very disappointed. She didn't expect her daughter to finish the work so quickly, and now she wouldn't be able to explain it to the bureau chief.
"Dad, has anything been resolved about what happened before?" Liu Zi asked, recalling the time Liu Daqiang was imprisoned.
"The investigation results are not yet available, but Qian Yu has been suspended from his duties, and Zhu Zhengqiang has been removed from his position in the disciplinary department."
Liu Zi understood that such investigations took time and could not yield results in a short period of time.
All she needs to know is that this isn't something that will simply disappear without a trace.
The Beijing Military Region's background check on Liu Zi has also been released. Apart from being divorced and having been to Hong Kong, there's nothing particularly noteworthy about her.
In particular, her father, Liu Daqiang, was a soldier and even went to the battlefield, which was a huge plus for her.
So General Wang Wei and the political commissar discussed it and he signed the consent form with a wave of his hand, with the special forces of the Beijing Military Region fully cooperating.
