Let $n>1$ be an integer. Find all $r\in \mathbb{R}$ so that the system of equations in real variables $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$: \begin{align*} &(r\cdot x_1-x_2)(r\cdot x_1-x_3)\dots (r\cdot x_1-x_n)=\\ =&(r\cdot x_2-x_1)(r\cdot x_2-x_3)\dots (r\cdot x_2-x_n)=\\ &\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \vdots \\ =&(r\cdot x_n-x_1)(r\cdot x_n-x_2)\dots (r\cdot x_n-x_{n-1}) \end{align*}has a solution where the numbers $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$ are pairwise distinct.
