"The amount of tax we have collected this year has decreased. It's normal that we have to lower the budget..." The Ministry of Culture's minister had not yet finished explaining when Bai Zhe took out a piece of paper.
"This is the number that has been certified by the Internal Revenue Service. After checking, the amount of tax the government has collected is actually higher than the amount you announced to the public and the press. The amount is higher than the goal, but you’re saying that it's lower—what does that mean? Members of the press, you know why, right?" said Bai Zhe.
"Fraud...?" said a reporter, followed by the others.
"Silence. Are you going to accuse me without any proof? Do you want me to sue you?" The minister pointed at Bai Zhe.
