PS: I don't know why the name of the drama was harmonized into an asterisk. It's just an English translation of "triangle" or "group of three."
The most amazing thing is that it still appears normal in my backend. I'm really confused … Fortunately, it's not important because the original drama wasn't worth watching …
— — —
A miraculous Yuri drama suddenly exploded in popularity. MBC was shocked and ecstatic. The original criticism of Long Ya interfering with the TV Bureau's personnel disappeared in the blink of an eye. The entire board of directors supported Long Ya and became "politically correct." Even the Democratic Party's board of directors had nothing to say.
No matter what faction you were in, for a commercial TV station, profits were the most important. After all, MBC TV Station wasn't set up for any one company, but for the collective benefit.
Almost overnight, Long Ya completely controlled MBC TV Bureau.
Originally, she only interfered with the mini drama department. Now, even the long drama department was filled with her own people.
The opposing voices in the board of directors were easily suppressed. Even the president, Jin Zhongguo, expressed his support.
But what Jin Zhongguo didn't know was that the reason why the board of directors could be so united was because many of the directors were already Tang Jinyan's people.
The power of the TV Bureau was given away. No one knew what the next step would be … It could be foreseen that his position as the president would soon be in name only.
It was still okay to be in name only. The one who was really in a passive position was KBS's president, Ji Huanyong.
KBS had already broadcast the ninth episode of "Golden Cross." It was obviously in its climax, but it was crushed by a new drama and didn't even get 6% of the viewership ratings …
Logically speaking, if a drama was crushed, it wouldn't shake KBS's president's position. It wouldn't even shake his position as the director of the TV Bureau. Which TV station hadn't been crushed by their opponents?
If this drama was crushed, then they would be responsible. What would happen when "Legend of Zheng Dao" crushed their opponents?
Therefore, Ji Huanyong didn't take it seriously at first. He just told the TV station to keep their spirits up so that they could salvage the situation.
But once someone wanted to use this opportunity to stir up trouble, the situation would be different.
On May 8th, the director of KBS, Quan Guang Zhen, openly opened his mouth at a meeting. He accused Ji Huanyong's secretary of accepting bribes from sponsors during the production of "Golden Cross," of randomly placing advertisements, and of using private personnel in the crew to take responsibility for the failure of the show.
Ji Huanyong was dumbfounded for a moment. His TV series was crushed by his opponent, and he hadn't even held him, the director in charge of the TV department, responsible for it. Why did he blame him first?
This is called the guilty party complaining first, is it to shirk responsibility?
Before he could react, the vice president, Cao Daxuan, also publicly agreed with Quanguang Zhen's opinion and accused Ji Huanyong of interfering with the TV Bureau, which led to frequent mistakes.
Ji Huanyong finally understood what was going on. This was not Quanguang Town trying to shirk responsibility, but the president's people were shooting at him. They were just looking for an excuse to cause trouble …
However, after being the president for so many years, Ji Huanyong was confident that he wouldn't be defeated by such a trivial matter.
Besides, KBS was different from MBC. KBS was a national channel, and the president was a very high-ranking official. He was appointed by the government, and the board of directors could not impeach him.
Therefore, he perfunctorily said, "I will strengthen management in the future," and dismissed the meeting. That night, he made an appointment with Pu Yuanchun.
"You can't let your guard down." Pu Yuanchun's expression was very serious. "Do you think this is just a display of the president's dissatisfaction with you?"
Ji Huanyong was stunned. "Isn't it?
Cao Daxuan and Quanguang Zhen are both from the president's side. "
"No … This is the president and Tang Jinyan working together again!"
Pu Yuanchun looked like he was facing a formidable enemy. "Go back immediately and find out if there are any loose ends. Clean them up immediately!
Once you're used, you'll be in big trouble! "
Ji Huanyong could not understand why Pu Yuanchun was so nervous.
After going against the president for so many years, he had never seen Pu Yuanchun so nervous. Could it be that he was panicking because he was not doing well in the mayoral election?
"You don't understand. The president alone is just so-so.
But if Tang Jinyan is involved … "Pu Yuanchun said word by word," You know nothing about the energy of the combination of light and shadow! "
Seeing that Pu Yuanchun was so cautious, Ji Huanyong was also a little worried. He went back to gather his loyal subordinates and seriously sorted out all the shady things that had happened over the years. After confirming that they had been very careful all these years and that there was no evidence that could be used against them, Ji Huanyong slept peacefully in the middle of the night.
The next morning, while Ji Huanyong was still lazing in bed, he was shocked awake by a phone call.
Tang Jinyan's New Village Media publicly reported a piece of news. During the staff dinner of the KBS news bureau, they announced, "More than 300 people died in the shipwreck accident. It seems like a lot, but compared to the number of people who died in traffic accidents over the years, it's actually not that big of a deal. There's no need to take it seriously."
The report even attached a recording as evidence. It was very conclusive. Ji Huanyong himself did not know where the recording came from … Speaking of which, it was normal for people in the news bureau to comment in private when they were having dinner together. Even Ji Huanyong did not know about this, but how did Tang Jinyan know about it?
And he even recorded it in advance?
A chill ran down Ji Huanyong's spine. He finally understood why Piao Yuanchun was acting as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Tang Jinyan had been planning this for a long time. Furthermore, he had always played dirty tricks and was extremely vicious. He would not reason with you at all!
And he did it so quickly that you didn't even have time to clean up. The explosion was earth-shattering.
Ji Huanyong could even foresee the situation where the people were in an uproar. This kind of talk was said in private and no one took it seriously. But once it was exposed to the public, and it came from the mouth of the news bureau, it represented the extreme indifference of the entire KBS news bureau toward the accident and disrespect for life.
(Note: This was a real incident at KBS in May 2014. I don't know if anyone remembers Old Bi.)
Ji Huanyong rushed to KBS in a hurry. He was planning to hold a press conference to redeem the public's opinion, but he was met with a huge crowd of demonstrators blocking the entrance of KBS. He did not even dare to enter the door …
The demonstrators were made up of the victims' families and members of the Association of Representatives of News Practitioners. Other people did not understand what was going on behind the scenes, but Ji Huanyong understood now.
How could it be possible without the b * stards from the New Village Party?
There was only one demand from the demonstrators: KBS news bureau should take the blame and resign. The president of KBS, Ji Huanyong, should step down!
Ji Huanyong never dared to enter KBS. He could only look for Pu Yuanchun again, hoping to get help.
Pu Yuanchun sighed. He could not blame Ji Huanyong. After all, he had never been able to withstand Tang Jinyan's tricks. After pondering for a long time, he could only say, "If you don't resign, Tang Jinyan can't do anything to you."
Ji Huanyong smiled bitterly and shook his head. "If I don't resign, Tang Jinyan can't do anything to me, but the president can."
This was the power of their cooperation … Pu Yuanchun thought to himself. A flash of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. "Just bear with it. If the president forcefully dismisses you, you can counter-sue her!
Just say that she instructed you to hide a lot of specific events and deliberately lead the public's opinion to muddy the waters! "
Ji Huanyong narrowed his eyes.
Pu Yuanchun was ruthless enough. He did not want to get involved with Tang Jinyan and went straight to the president's core … Once the waters were muddy, they might be able to gain some benefits through this matter.
As for the position of president of KBS, he made the decision without any hesitation. It could be said that he had the decisiveness of a hero cutting his wrist.
But it seemed to benefit Tang Jinyan?
"It won't benefit Tang Jinyan … If the president position of KBS is thrown out, the president and Tang Jinyan will definitely fight for it. Their relationship is not as close as before. If they fight for it a few more times, they will turn against each other sooner or later," Pu Yuanchun said coldly, "Besides, Tang Jinyan knows how to play dirty tricks. Do you think we can't?"
