PS: 51 days ago, I was working overtime and came home late.
— — —
Baek Chang-soo was not surprised to see Tang Jinyan already sitting down. He walked in and asked, "How's the old man?"
The two of them were now close allies. Song Ji-hyo had been working at C-JES all day to learn how to manage the company. At night, she would bring a bunch of management materials back home to study. She had not been to Cool Room for a long time. It seemed that she really wanted to change into management.
Song Ji-hyo was in charge of the company. Baek Chang-soo trusted her a lot and gave her a lot of authority. He left early and returned late to do other things.
Everyone knew that Baek Chang-soo trusted Tang Jinyan. In other words, he was pretending to trust Tang Jinyan.
Of course, the two of them would not reveal their close relationship in front of the old man. Even if the old man knew, they had to pretend.
Baek Chang-soo's expression was still a little reserved. Tang Jinyan's response was also very polite. "Brother Liu, you're here?
The old man is fine. Don't worry too much. "
The old man looked at Baek Chang-soo and smiled. "Chang-soo has been quite bold recently …"
Tang Jinyan was stunned. Baek Chang-soo scratched his head embarrassedly. "Old man knows?"
The old man sighed. "Take it easy when working with Lee Jae-hyun. You're too deeply involved in the collision of the Li family's chariots. It's hard to end well."
Baek Chang-soo laughed. "Father, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Tang Jinyan finally understood what they were talking about.
Although Song Ji-hyo had not returned to Cool Room recently, she had been in contact with him. She told him about the recent events at C-JES. Baek Chang-soo had been trying his best to poach a male artist recently. The contract was almost settled.
Originally, it was very normal for entertainment agencies to poach people. The reason why the old man paid attention to him was because this male artist's identity was not ordinary.
His name was Lee Jung Jae, and he was one of the top actors in South Korea. He had just broken the record for the highest number of viewers in the movie "Thieves' Union".
That alone was not enough to catch the old man's eye. What was important was that he was dating a very special woman. Not to mention the old man, the whole world was watching …
The woman's name was Lin Shiling. She was known as the Three-Star Crown Princess and was the ex-wife of the Three-Star Lee Jae-yong …
Since his wife was divorced, it was normal for her to fall in love with someone else and remarry. However, the other party was a top male artist with great influence, which caused the whole country to watch happily. It made Lee Jae-yong's head look like a cuckold.
Li Zairong was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. However, the more the world was watching, the more he couldn't act recklessly. He could only secretly warn Li Zhengzai, hoping that he would be tactful. As a result, Li Zhengzai could only pitifully tell the public that he and Lin Shiling were just good friends.
At this time, the righteous man made a move. He told Li Zhengzai that it was fine, and that he could date as much as he wanted. Free love was fair and everyone supported him. Don't be afraid of Lee Jae-yong.
The company was afraid of trouble and didn't want to renew your contract?
It's fine, it's fine. Come to my CJ. My CJ specializes in going against Samsung.
Everyone could guess who this righteous man was. His name was Lee Jae-hyun.
If they went directly to CJ, it would be like falling out with them. Even Li Zhengzai did not dare to do so.
Therefore, everyone took a detour and went to C-JES, which had nothing to do with CJ on the surface.
Baek Chang-soo appeared.
The old man expressed that none of his sons were easy to deal with.
He was so deeply involved with Lee Jae-hyun. If it wasn't to take advantage of his position, then what was it for?
Did he really think that everyone would believe that he was just cooperating with the entertainment industry?
Baek Chang-soo said again, "Lee Jae-yong is not in the right for this matter. Public opinion is protecting him. It doesn't matter.
Besides, I'm just a middleman. Why would Lee Jae-yong target me? "
The old man waved his hand. "Take care of it yourself."
In order to fight for the position, the brothers had all kinds of methods. It wasn't as if the eldest and the second eldest did not have any powerful people backing them. The old man would not stop them, nor could he stop them.
Baek Chang-soo said sincerely, "Old Master, take care of yourself …" Before he could finish, Uncle Zhang's phone rang. Baek Chang-soo shut his mouth and watched Uncle Zhang pick up the phone.
Tang Jinyan was also paying attention. He watched as Uncle Zhang's face gradually turned ashen.
"Old Master …" Uncle Zhang put away his phone and whispered, "They are confronting each other at the door. No one is willing to give way to the other."
Tang Jinyan: "…"
Baek Chang-soo: "…"
The old man was furious. He swung his hand angrily and almost knocked over the IV drip. "I'm not dead yet!
Are they trying to anger me to death?! "
Uncle Zhang and the group of men in black kept quiet out of fear. The expressions on their faces were also very angry.
Tang Jinyan stood up silently and turned to leave.
Baek Chang-soo wanted to follow him, but he shook his head after some thought. He accompanied the old man and comforted him in a low voice.
When Tang Jinyan walked to the entrance of the hospital, he saw that there were hundreds of people on the wide street outside the door. The two sides were clearly facing each other. The hospital's security guards were cowering inside. There was no one on the walkway inside the door. Everyone, from the nurses to the patients, had been scared away.
"Second Brother, do you still not understand the principle of seniority?" Li Zhiguo's voice sounded from the crowd. "Do you want me to teach you how to behave?"
"As an elder brother, you have to be humble. Why haven't I seen such a virtue in you before?"
"Humility my ass!"
"You're too young, my ass!"
"Boom!" The two sides were about to collide.
Tang Jinyan was amused.
It was not that the eldest and second brother had nothing better to do than to bring so many people out. There were five brothers here, and each of them brought ten to twenty people. In total, there were more than a hundred people.
With more than a hundred people, the scene was very spectacular. The street outside the hospital was so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through. It looked like a big fight was about to break out.
In the past few months, the two sides had been white-hot. In the past, they would still be polite and courteous on the surface. Now that they met, it was like a volcanic eruption.
In fact, it was not a matter of who entered the hospital first. It was just that they did not like each other and were too lazy to pretend.
Seeing that the two sides were about to break out into a big fight, Tang Jinyan appeared at the door and said calmly, "There are too many extras."
As if time had stopped, the scene suddenly quieted down.
The hundreds of people turned their heads in unison and looked at the majestic figure on the steps at the door.
The brothers had been afraid of Tang Jinyan for many years. Even their henchmen knew very well that the Ninth Masters was someone they could never provoke. Deep down, they were already afraid of him.
Especially when he returned to China with the help of the Yamaguchi-gumi. In many people's eyes, Tang Jinyan was like a big crocodile.
Right now, Tang Jinyan looked like he was standing there all alone. However, he was like a tall mountain that brought a lot of pressure to the hundreds of people.
"This is such a small hospital. Why are there so many people crowding at the door?"
Tang Jinyan looked around at the hundreds of people, picked his ears, and said calmly, "If you're Tang Jiu's brother, come up. The rest of you … get lost."
