If Tang Jinyan didn't want to vent his anger on them, he would find someone else to vent it on.
Even though T-ara had heard Tang Jinyan's series of phone calls with clear intentions of revenge, they still didn't expect Tang Jinyan to act so quickly.
Back in Cool Breeze, Tang Jinyan personally raised the baton of revenge. His actions were a little different from the phone calls he made before.
On August 14th, the S * M Company launched a new boy group, EXO, four months ago. The lead dancer, Jin Zhongren, participated in the recording of "Dance Battle". On his way back, his car was intercepted by a group of thugs. Jin Zhongren was beaten up for ten minutes until his calf was fractured.
At night, the lead singer, Bian Boxian, got into an altercation with someone in a midnight restaurant and was beaten to the point of having a concussion. He was still in a daze when he woke up.
The two incidents made the celebrities heartbroken, but there wasn't much reaction online or in the media.
Because the two incidents seemed to be unrelated. The first incident seemed to be the work of Anti. Everyone in the country had a tacit understanding of Anti's bottom line. When Dongfang Shenqi was at the peak of his career, Captain Zheng Yunhao was almost poisoned to death without any explanation. This fledgling Jin Zhongren could only admit that he was unlucky.
The media symbolically attacked Anti's violent behavior and called for people to follow their idols rationally and oppose their idols rationally, as if it was routine.
The latter incident was more like a coincidence. It was a common occurrence to get into an argument and get beaten up while eating supper. It was only because the incident involved an artist that it attracted attention. When the police arrived at the scene, they hastily understood the situation and were too lazy to investigate in detail.
Some people on the Internet gloated that EXO was unlucky, but the S * M Company didn't think so.
Lee Soo-man's face was livid as he dialed Li Taixiong's number.
"Old Master, what your Ninth Prince did this time was a bit too much."
The old man was confused. "Huh?
What did he do?
Cough, I'm old and dizzy. I've been doing physical therapy for a few days. I don't know what happened. Mr. Li, why don't you talk to him directly? I'll give you his number … "
In other words, he wasn't going to teach him a lesson. You guys solve it yourselves.
"Did I?"
Tang Jinyan couldn't help but laugh when he received the call. "There are two T-ara and two S * M lying in the hospital.
One has a brain problem, the other has a bone problem. Is there anything unfair about that? "
Lee Soo-man suppressed his anger. "By doing this, the Nine Masters have disrupted the competition in the market.
If everyone does this, won't the world fall into chaos? "
Tang Jinyan said indifferently, "What does your market environment have to do with me? The only thing that matters in the underworld is an eye for an eye."
Lee Soo-man could read between the lines. "Does the Ninth Masters mean that the revenge will end here?"
Lee Soo-man was a little surprised. This Tang Jinyan was said to be cruel and violent, but who said that he was ignorant and incompetent?
Following the rules of the underworld, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth was not a problem at all. Even if he invited other big shots to a banquet, Tang Jinyan could still be justified.
Moreover, EXO had just debuted and was not a popular group. Two injured members would recover in a month or two. It would not affect the group much.
The Democratic Party did not even participate in this year's election. They were lying low and did not want to act rashly. Why would they mobilize their forces to fight a large-scale underworld gang just because two non-popular artists were injured?
Black and white were not appropriate. It could be said that this level of revenge had crossed their bottom line. They could not be angry, but they could also not be angry. They could only swallow their anger …
He could only threaten coldly, "I hope it ends here. Otherwise, the Nine Masters will have something on EXO."
Tang Jinyan said indifferently, "If Xu Xian loses a strand of hair, EXO will pay with their lives. Even if you sweep my Qingli, you won't be able to change the outcome. I hope Mr. Li can weigh the pros and cons."
Lee Soo-man hung up the phone angrily. He did not even manage to save his last bit of face.
Kim Yingmin, who had been listening for a long time, could not understand. "Tang Jinyan is doing well in Incheon. Why does he still look like he has nothing to lose?"
Lee Soo-man sighed. "Because he also knows that we won't touch Xu Xian."
That's right. How could they touch their own pillars for two newcomers … The two men fell silent.
After being in the industry for so many years, it was not that they had never dealt with the underworld. In the early days of EXO's rise, they were always arguing with the underworld. However, they did not expect the underworld to be so difficult to deal with this time.
"I heard that he likes to read … that's how Xu Xian was seduced."
"So you're afraid that the gangster is educated?"
The two big shots did not know whether to laugh or cry.
*****
DSP Company.
The president of DSP, Li Haoyan, had a stroke two years ago. After that, he managed the company intermittently for a while. After the successful promotion of KARA's strategy in Japan, he could no longer do what he wanted and went home to recuperate. Now, his wife was in charge of the company.
KARA was very popular in Japan. Li Haoyan thought that he had succeeded and retired. He did not expect that not long after, his wife would make trouble for him.
Perhaps it was because women were born to be mean to other women. Lady Li actually came up with a unique trick. She applied for patent rights for all 85 projects related to KARA. This meant that KARA could not do anything in the name of KARA. Even if they fart, they had to get the company's approval and take a cut.
This oppression of artists had reached an outrageous level. It was even more ferocious than EXO's.
KARA was full of resentment. At the beginning of last year, they collectively filed a lawsuit against DSP to cancel the slave contract.
Lady Li used all her means, coercion, and bribery. Both the legal and illegal sides worked hard to appease the matter. KARA had no choice but to withdraw the lawsuit.
EXO's played tricks on others and were harsh to their own artists. However, they still vigorously supported and promoted them. That was why they were able to advance triumphantly.
But she could not do it. She played tricks on others and her own artists, but she did not pay attention to the promotion. It was as if as long as she squeezed them well, the company would make money.
For example, at present, many people expressed that they did not understand why DSP chose to release a five-part mini-series for KARA when "Jiangnan Style" was already sweeping the world.
"As for Puretty, how's the preparation for the Japanese debut?"
The subordinate was full of confidence. "No problem. According to the original plan, the debut will be stable next month."
Lady Li nodded with satisfaction. "Don't delay the release of KARA's five-part mini-series."
The subordinate was a little hesitant this time. "The five-part mini-series is not a problem, but KARA …"
Lady Li had an ominous feeling in her heart. "What's wrong?"
The subordinate handed over a newspaper. "Today, D Society …"
Lady Li snatched the newspaper and read it. A huge headline came into view. "Inside story of KARA's withdrawal of lawsuit: DSP Hired Mafia to Threaten KARA Members."
She slammed the table angrily. "What the hell is D Society doing?
They actually released such a taboo without informing us? "
The subordinate hesitated. "A few days ago … that …"
Lady Li was stunned. She suddenly felt a chill in her heart. "Tang Jinyan's revenge?"
"Probably."
"He's a mafia himself!
Isn't he afraid that we'll expose his background? "
"We really can't expose his background … his Incheon business …" The subordinate's voice gradually trailed off.
Lady Li also understood, and her face turned pale.
Tang Jinyan's secret smuggling was a secret. She did not know, but everyone knew that not long ago, Incheon Mayor Liu Zhengfu personally praised Tang Jinyan, saying that he was an excellent young entrepreneur.
At this time, whoever was not sensible enough to expose Tang Jinyan's dark background would not only offend Tang Jinyan, but also fiercely slap Liu Zhengfu's face. Even Liu Zhengfu's political future would be greatly affected. That was simply to fight Liu Zhengfu to the bitter end …
So even if Tang Jinyan's audio included the words "President Tang", no one would make an issue out of it. Instead, they had to help him lead the way. There were many presidents who pronounced the surname this way.
What was this? The mafia swaggered and made an issue out of other people's involvement in the underworld …
Understanding this, Lady Li weakly pinched her forehead. "When will it be Tang Jinyan's turn to retaliate?
CCM didn't even say anything! "
"I heard … even Kim Kwang-soo was beaten by him."
"… Is he crazy?"
"Maybe there's some other inside story here …"
No matter what the inside story was, in short, Tang Jinyan was not crazy, but the DSP company was going crazy.
Hiring a mafia to threaten their idol, fans absolutely had zero tolerance for this kind of thing. Even other fans in the fandom were showing their support. The Internet was overwhelming bombardment of DSP, and even began to spontaneously demonstrate at the door of DSP's door.
Lady Li, who was preparing to negotiate with Tang Jinyan, was stunned at the crowd and slogans outside the door. She could not even speak.
"Immediately announce that D Society is spreading rumors, and get ready to file a lawsuit with D Society!"
Lady Li made a prompt decision. "Summon KARA back to amend the contract, increase the share, give up the patent, and let KARA appease the fans on the Internet!"
It had to be said that Lady Li's response this time was very correct. This level of public relations was much better than CCM's … It was just that the girls of KARA unexpectedly got a big bargain, and it would be impossible to take it back in the future …
If it was just a little problem with EXO under SM, on the surface it had nothing to do with the T-ara incident, and the outside world would not necessarily associate this incident with Tang Jinyan.
However, SM and DSP had bad luck one after another in one day, and at this time, the discerning people vaguely guessed the key point.
Some well-informed people even knew a small matter: a civilian officer surnamed Liu had committed an unknown crime today, and his position was completely removed. It was said that he was still awaiting trial.
Those who had nothing to do with the matter were amazed at Tang Jinyan's fierceness and viciousness, and the companies involved in the T-ara incident were instantly nervous, not knowing where Tang Jinyan's next knife would go.
There were also people who asked for help from various parties, wanting to negotiate with Tang Jinyan.
The first to come forward was the Seven Stars of Pusan.
