Tang Jinyan felt that in recent years, he was no longer a villain. At least, he was much better than when he raped Jun Eun-thi.
Of course, his way of thinking still leaned towards the dark side, but he never felt that people like Lee Jianxi could think any better than him.
Without enough rationality, the knife would not be sharp. He already had too many shackles on his arm. If his way of thinking became emotional, then he would be finished.
For example, he could still act impulsively on the Hundred Thoughts Stage, but he needed to be responsible for himself and the people around him. He needed to be responsible for the tens of thousands of employees in the New Village Corporation.
He used to distinguish between light and shadow, but now it was getting blurrier. He did not know if he was considered black or white. He could not even tell if he was considered black or white.
Maybe there were no clear colors in the world. As long as there was light, there would be shadow. Whether it was comparing people to people or comparing oneself to oneself, it was a principle that would never change.
Fortunately, he never looked forward to the light. The paths he chose were always intertwined.
Just like now, when he planned for MBC, he felt that he had let down the president Jin Zhongguo, who was on the same side as him. However, he could at least give Jin Zhongguo some power.
If he lost on the chessboard in Korea, his power would fall apart overnight. He would not even be able to protect his women. No one would sympathize with him.
Even Long Ya did not know that Tang Jinyan had two backup plans for MBC.
The starting point of the two plans was whether the drama would become popular or not.
MBC found New Village Entertainment to cooperate with the drama. The reason was that MBC's historical drama was crushed by KBS at the beginning of the year. MBC's board of directors was in an uproar.
If the drama did not become popular and was crushed by KBS again, wouldn't the actual controller of KBS, Jeonguang Jin, have an excuse to take over?
Even if there was no excuse, Tang Jinyan would push for it to become popular.
And if this drama could really become popular and crush the KBS drama of the same period, what would happen behind the scenes of the KBS drama?
Even if there was no story, Tang Jinyan would find a way to make it happen. He would downplay the responsibility of the TV Bureau and shift the blame to the board of directors. After the president was embarrassed, he would have other means. For example, he could let the news bureau directly under the president make a false report on the death toll of the Epoch.
This was not difficult for Quanguang Town.
Regardless of whether he was popular or not, both plans were aimed at the KBS president's throne.
After all, the Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism was now one of their own. He could do whatever he wanted with ease. It would be a pity if he didn't use this opportunity to build up his own influence on national television.
What did it mean to rule the entertainment industry?
KBS and MBC listened to him, Showbox and CJ were his own people, and the S&M companies were licking his boots because of political demands. This was what it meant to rule the entertainment industry.
The awards that his works received were nothing compared to his rule.
In the new village clubhouse, the new Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism, Park Xianzai, KBS director Quanguang Town, and Tang Jinyan were sitting in the first secret room. They were drinking and exchanging drinks.
"To be honest, when the Ninth Masters entered Jeju Island, I admired them as a young and energetic talent. But who would have thought that within two years, I would be promoted by the Ninth Masters."
Park Xianzai sipped his wine and sighed. "Others say that the Ninth Masters is a person with luck. But if they hear about the Ninth Masters' plan, I don't think anyone would think so.
While they are focused on the results of their works, the Ninth Masters is not focused on that. "
The Ninth Masters, a very interesting title.
On the surface, people would call him Chairman Tang. Only those who had a close relationship with him would call him the Ninth Masters. Calling him Master was not a sign of respect, but a sign of closeness.
But when it came from the dignified Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism, it still made people feel a trace of flattery.
Quanguang Town, who was next to him, did not feel that it was flattery. Instead, he felt that it should be so.
As a business partner from Tang Dynasty, Quanguang Town was very clear about the Tang Dynasty's affairs.
For example, Yuan Xilong, Park Xianzai, and the others had taken a lot of money from Tang Jinyan in the past two years. Even if Quanguang Town did not know the actual number, he knew that it was definitely not a small amount. Now that Yuan Xilong was running for election, the political black money was spent like flowing water. All of it went into Tang Jinyan's secret account. If this number was exposed, it would be a huge case that would shock the whole country.
Now, Park Xianzai not only had money, but also his position was pushed up by Tang Jinyan. It was completely understandable that Park Xianzai went from being a business partner to being slightly inferior.
Wasn't he the same as well?
At the end of last year, when Tang Jinyan came looking for MBC, he was only thinking about how to increase KBS's speaking power in Tang Dynasty and suppress MBC … Who knew that Tang Jinyan's plan was so deep. The temptation of climbing up the KBS president's throne was right in front of him. With Park Xianzai's support, the chances of success were really high. He felt that compared to his previous plan, he was like a child. He really admired Tang Jinyan. He called out the Nine Masters even more melodiously, "The Nine Masters entering Jeju Island is a milestone in the change of Korea's structure.
I'm really honored to be appointed by KBS as Tang Dynasty's representative. I've benefited a lot in the past two years. "
Park Xianzai said in a low voice, "The President is very dissatisfied with KBS's performance during the Epoch incident. He also wants to replace the president."
"Oh?" Tang Jinyan became alert, "Who does the President want?"
Jeon Guang Jin said, "The vice president, Cao Daxuan, is on the President's side."
Tang Jinyan laughed, "You're talking as if you're not."
If he wasn't on the President's side, he wouldn't have been able to participate in Tang Dynasty's project. It was the same for Jeon Guang Jin and Park Xianzai.
Jeon Guang Jin also laughed, "You can say that. But there's also a difference between being on the President's side.
Right now, I'm only on the Nine Masters' side. "
Looking at his loyalty, Tang Jinyan chuckled. "We have to look at things from both sides. Since Mao Zedong is also dissatisfied with Ji Huanyong, it seems that at least the matter of overthrowing Ji Huanyong is very stable.
After that, it's just a competition between a few candidates. It might not be easy to overpower Cao Daxuan, but it's not difficult to ruin his reputation. Don't tell me that this person is as flawless as a saint. "
It was a typical Tang Jinyan's way of thinking. Park Xianzai and Jeon Guang Jin looked at each other. They didn't look uncomfortable. Instead, they were a little excited, "Cao Daxuan is of course not a saint."
Park Xianzai warned, "Director Jeon Guang Jin, you have to keep a low profile. Others might find trouble with you."
Jeon Guang Jin nodded, "I know.
It's just that I don't believe that others have the methods of the Nine Masters. "
Park Xianzai clapped his hands and laughed, "Of course. I'm very sure of that."
Tang Jinyan smiled. So, even if you put aside the desire for money and power, who is the good guy and who is the bad guy in the big game that decides the fate of countless people?
"If you're a good guy, I'll be your girlfriend."
That voice suddenly appeared in his mind. Tang Jinyan lowered his head and drank. His heart didn't waver. He was even a little curious. After two years of ups and downs, would she still be able to say such bright words?
