The next day, Tang Jinyan sent Song Ji-hyo to C-Jes Company.
When he arrived, he did not leave, but went straight to the president's office.
Baek Chang-soo saw Tang Jinyan and was a little surprised. "Old Jiu actually took the initiative to see me?"
Tang Jinyan sat down on the sofa and said with a smile, "I haven't watched the cricket fighting project for a long time. I want to find Brother Six to learn about it."
Baek Chang-soo got up from his seat and went to make coffee for him. He said, "Don't give me that. I don't believe that you haven't been keeping an eye on the progress of the situation.
On the contrary, the crickets have no spare energy to pay attention to your movements. "
Tang Jinyan laughed and said, "Except for you."
"I'm not a cricket."
Baek Chang-soo came over with the coffee and put it in front of him solemnly. He stared straight at his face and said, "Old Jiu, in the current situation, everyone will fight for a year or two. You can stay silent in Incheon for a year or two. Two years later, everyone together will not be your opponent.
Tell Brother Six, what do you want to do? "
Tang Jinyan narrowed his eyes. "What do you want me to do?"
Baek Chang-soo smiled bitterly and lowered his head to drink the coffee. He said faintly, "If I say that I still want you to stand on my side, even I would be ashamed to say it."
Tang Jinyan smiled slightly. "Why not?"
Baek Chang-soo looked up suddenly, the coffee foam still stained the corner of his mouth, and he looked very funny.
Tang Jinyan also took a sip of coffee and said lightly, "Now the situation is gradually becoming clear. One team, one team, two team, three team. I'm wandering outside, and you're the only one left who can't decide what to do. You're a delicious cake."
Baek Chang-soo smiled bitterly. "You want to pull me in and completely crush the ratio, but you also want to pull me in to maintain the balance. Old Jiu, I've been suffering recently …"
"Don't pretend to be stupid. You're doing it on purpose." Tang Jinyan said lightly, "Is it fun?"
Baek Chang-soo stopped pretending and said with a smile, "Actually, it's quite fun to watch from the sidelines.
Look, Boss can't wait to kill me now, because as long as I die, it'll be three to two.
Second Bro clearly had a conflict with me, but he still protected me because as long as I was alive, there was still a chance for a three to three.
Right now, my own defensive forces are doing nothing, because there are people secretly helping to protect me.
Also, ever since someone tried to frame Boss last time, Old Master has hinted that he doesn't want everyone to continue using underhanded tactics. It makes it seem like I'm in the limelight, but I'm actually as safe as Mount Tai. It's too fun. "
Tang Jinyan laughed and said, "The one who framed Big Bro was not Second Bro, right?"
Baek Chang-soo laughed out loud. "Of course it's Big Brother's acting. Last time, when you went to Second Brother's place to flip the table, he felt that he could guide you again and make you really go against Second Brother."
Tang Jinyan could not help but laugh. "Let them be. It's quite fun to watch a monkey show."
Baek Chang-soo stopped laughing and said in a low voice, "So I'll just watch from the sidelines until the end."
Tang Jinyan laughed and said, "The two of us will watch from the sidelines until the end.
That's why I'm on your side, Brother Six. "
Baek Chang-soo could not help but laugh. "That's reasonable. So we're called … onlookers?"
Tang Jinyan suddenly said, "But before that, I want to confirm something."
Baek Chang-soo said solemnly, "Please say it."
"Why did you … kill Fifth Bro?"
Baek Chang-soo's face was solemn and he fell silent. After a long time, he said, "If I said it was because of a personal grudge, would you believe me?"
Tang Jinyan said lightly, "Don't try to brush me off with this kind of thing."
Baek Chang-soo sighed. "Fifth Bro is Boss's hardcore supporter.
If I want to make a difference, it's necessary to weaken Boss's power. Otherwise, Second Bro will be vulnerable and we won't have any loopholes to exploit. "
Tang Jinyan sneered. "You and Second Bro put on a good show."
"It's just a temporary alliance. I'm not his man."
Baek Chang-soo sighed. "There are so many people in Boss's faction. The reason why he chose Fifth Bro is because he has a personal grudge against me. Secondly, his tabloids are useful to me. Thirdly, he's very skilled and easy to deal with.
Tell me, who else can I deal with if not him? "
Tang Jinyan also sighed.
"Brother, you've revealed everything," Baek Chang-soo said seriously, "Actually, you know why I gave you that photo."
Tang Jinyan nodded and then shook his head. "I can't.
It's better to be a bystander. "
Baek Chang-soo smiled and did not say much.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Tang Jinyan left.
Baek Chang-soo sat quietly for a while. Suddenly, he got up and went to look for Song Ji-hyo.
"What now?"
Song Ji-hyo leaned against the lounge and flipped through a magazine. "Don't arrange my schedule recently. I just finished filming a movie and need to rest for a while."
Baek Chang-soo whispered, "Let's change our contract."
Song Ji-hyo put away the magazine and narrowed her eyes. "Change what?"
Baek Chang-soo said seriously, "You get the full share of the profits. The company doesn't want a single cent."
Song Ji-hyo said lazily, "No matter what benefits you give me, I'll only be on his side.
Aren't you afraid that the investment will be thrown into the water? "
Baek Chang-soo smiled. "I'm just expressing my goodwill. I don't need you to be on my side."
Song Ji-hyo nodded and asked casually, "What kind of secret agreement did you and Jinyan come up with?"
Baek Chang-soo did not answer.
Although the two brothers did not say it explicitly, their intentions were obvious.
Tang Jinyan supporting him to be promoted was undoubtedly a reassuring pill for him.
Baek Chang-soo felt that if he really got Tang Jinyan's support, he might really have a chance to be promoted.
Compared to the entire New Village Party, what was Song Ji-hyo's small share?
If he was not worried about being too obvious, he would even give Song Ji-hyo company shares and hold onto her tightly.
He also understood Tang Jinyan's intentions.
First, he wanted him to maintain his position and muddy the waters.
Second, he wanted him to be a puppet.
If he was a puppet, then so be it. Not everyone was qualified to be a puppet.
Besides … when the time came, there would naturally be new changes. It was not as if he, Old Sixth Bai, had no other preparations. Tang Jinyan might not be able to get what he wanted …
The Chinese wanted to be in power here?
Was it really that easy?
*****
At the New Village Party headquarters.
"Has Jinyan made any new moves recently?"
The old man leaned on the rattan chair, still playing with the shiny iron balls. His eyes were half-closed and his voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself.
"Not yet."
The man in the black suit next to him knew that the old man was not talking to himself. He bowed slightly and said with some admiration, "Ninth Young Master's confidants are all very loyal. We can't get in, and the people below don't know their secrets."
"Those are all old brothers who followed him and fought their way up. They may not agree with each other and may have small conflicts, but everyone's interests are tied together with Jinyan's. Who would be so stupid to be a traitor when it's time to take a big step forward?" The old man looked out the window with nostalgia. "Back then … I also had a group of brothers like that …"
The man in the black suit was silent.
The old man suddenly said, "If I really gave it to Jinyan, would you be willing?"
The man in the black suit said in a low voice, "It's useless for the few of us to agree on this kind of thing. The people below the whole faction will not agree, and the bureaucrats outside will not agree either. There will be a big mess."
"So you don't have any objections?"
"Yes, I don't have any objections to Ninth Young Master."
"Jinyan has already started to guard against me …" The old man sighed softly. "He used his own strength to deal with Inchon. In the end, we were completely ignored, and he didn't come to report the results.
Even at the docks, he has started to buy people's hearts. "
The man in the black suit smiled and said, "It's the same for anyone. I'm afraid that if you ask for half of it, no one will be able to stand it."
"Haha, you're starting to speak for him."
The old man played with the iron balls and thought quietly for a while before saying, "Help me pass a message. Give us two or three percent of the new share. Just a token will do."
The man in the black suit was not surprised. Instead, he said, "You're not reassuring him. You're making him more vigilant."
"You don't understand. I want him to reassure me."
"I don't understand …"
"It's normal that you don't understand.
If he doesn't understand, then I've thought so highly of him in vain. "
