Chapter Eighty-Seven: The President's Thoughts
Putting down the phone, Bai Haoxian's trademark smile was as good as ever. However, the doubt and relief on the brow appeared and disappeared alternately. He did not expect in any case that His Excellency the President would call him personally. Although he just asked him to convey his closeness to the Bai family, Bai Haoxian already understood his intentions.
After all, if you want to express your closeness, you don't have to let yourself be conveyed by a child of the Bai family who has just returned from abroad. His real intention was to send a kind invitation to his uncompetitive nephew to see if he could get OBS to cooperate with the Ministry of Culture and help complete the plan that was about to be implemented. Bai Haoxian has been dealing with it calmly, saying that he will try his best to get OBS to cooperate. The conversation also ended in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere.
If it weren't for the fact that this smile had been maintained for many years, Bai Haoxian really wanted to change a more suitable expression to interpret these things in front of him. Ridicule is not in line with one's character. Losing a smile is a little incompatible with my own cultivation. Speechless? That's apt, but it's still inaccurate. The Ministry of Culture issued an order, not to mention OBS, even the three major TV stations must also cooperate.
Although he knew that the president might be shunned by the Ministry of Culture, if he really didn't cooperate, it would be a bit sorry for his bold and wise performance in the last turmoil. This time, this plan was slightly modified and implemented by His Excellency the President, and the mastery of his technique made Bai Haoxian praise.
But the phone call also made him feel the sadness of being the president of the Republic of Korea and his uncle. He believed that if the president were to accomplish the plan, it would be more perfect than this conspiracy and unwittingly forcing the elder into a dilemma. Step by step, after slowly achieving his goal, it is possible to kick the elder out of the two major TV stations. As for how he would deal with the counterattack later, Bai Haoxian couldn't predict it. After all, it hasn't happened yet, and it is not yet known what the outcome will be.
However, although the difference between the president and the minister of culture is only one level, there is a world of difference in the responsibilities and tasks to be done. He can't always meddle in the affairs of the Ministry of Culture, and he can't talk about public or private affairs. The first is that there is no energy, after all, the president is in charge of all the affairs of the country, and he has to bear the greatest pressure. It doesn't matter if it's national or international. Neither congenital nor objective conditions allow it.
And the other point is to talk about selfishness. The Minister of Culture is his nephew, and if he always meddles, then when will he be able to take charge on his own? Before taking office, he was the head of the Secretariat, and to put it bluntly, he was a senior staff member. If you are pushed to the forefront, you can't just have the brains and the city. A lot of unexpected events and stress in the open and dark can affect your thinking and decision-making. Not to mention......
Thinking of the words senior staff and city government, Bai Haoxian couldn't help but shake his head and smile. If you can really meet the standards of these two words, it would be good to hone it. But he won't let others help him make a plan. Whenever this happens, Bai Haoxian can't help but think about how he would implement it at the beginning and now if it were himself?
But every now and then, he gives up and lets himself go. Because if he could succeed on this alone, he would not refuse Lee Sang-yeol's offer of cooperation. Even this invitation, His Excellency the President's invitation was also rejected by him. It is good to convey goodwill, or to let him cooperate with the Ministry of Culture. To put it bluntly, it all shows an idea, that is, let him help Lee Sang-yeol. Whether it's just for this one plan, or what plans you have in the future, you can consider it as a cooperation. After all, each has its own purpose, but the goal is one.
Bai Haoxian looked out the window intently. The refusal was right, he had never been so sure. When he set foot on Korean soil, he didn't allow himself to take anything with a casual attitude. He has always had confidence in himself, so he has not taken many things seriously. Because he doesn't need to be too serious to be successful.
But this time was different. Whether it's because of the strength of his opponent or the importance of what he has to do, he can't afford to make a mistake. It's not the best time, even if the president's intervention puts him in a dilemma. However, what he needs is a chance, a chance that will make him completely unable to turn over, even ......
"Or even kill me directly?" Han Mingjin looked at Ha Jinyeol and Yoo Eunhyuk with a strange expression: "You can't mean that, right?" Ha Jinyeol shook his head with a smile: "Of course not, what we want to talk about is the pressure of public opinion." Han Mingjin pouted: "When that day comes, it's a big deal for me not to be an idol, what's the matter?"
Liu Yinhe looked at Han Mingjin: "President." Public opinion is not only aimed at the entertainment industry. Public opinion has always been directed at everyone. Even the whole world. It's like...... Bin laden. Han Mingjin jumped up suddenly, and looked at the two of them with wide eyes: "Two." Don't be so analogous, can I? I can't reach that height. If you say that again, I'll really go to your house with a bomb strapped up. ”
He Jinlie smiled helplessly and dragged Han Mingjin back to sit back: "It's just an analogy." So it's better for you to pay attention. Liu Yinhe frowned and looked at Ha Jinyeol, and then asked Han Mingjin: "Then the president." For now, just do what you want. Let's take it one step at a time. As for the future...... Han Mingjin waved his hand: "Don't worry." I know it. ”
Han Mingjin was stunned, and suddenly looked at the two of them with strange expressions: "First of all, I want to thank you for being so thoughtful about me. But I would like to ask you that, first of all, our positions are different. You guys...... Shouldn't I be more on the side of the Korean people or the Ministry of Culture? In the final analysis, it seems that I am the real outsider inside and outside. ”
Ha Jinyeol and Yoo Eun-hyuk were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Han Mingjin with a smile. However, Yoo Eun-hyuk didn't speak, but Ha Jinyeol replied on behalf of the two: "President." It doesn't matter what Chinese language is spoken or what script is used. Koreans have always been Koreans. The nationality will not be changed to Chinese just because of the use of Chinese characters. And I believe that in your capacity you are not an international spy, and even more so, by knowing what you are doing, I do not think that you will do anything against the Republic of Korea. As long as these two aspects do not conflict, it does not matter much whether a foreigner or a native is a foreigner. ”
Liu Yinhe nodded: "Not bad." And when you become the president, whether it's SBS or MBC. Not to mention that it is better than before, and in the most conservative terms, it is not worse than before. And you proposed to plan several programs, which helped Korean variety shows enter the international market. Many Asian countries have also started watching our programs online. The income from advertising fees has also increased a lot. If you want to say that you really have bad intentions, it is also the Ministry of Culture that is the first to do so. It's not that you take the initiative. ”
Han Mingjin waved his hand to interrupt the two, and got up with a grin: "It's okay." I can feel a little more at ease knowing what you think. But remember, it's going to be like this in the future. Praise me more and blame me less. That's what I'm interested in.,Today some people say that I'm actually a character who cares a lot about a sense of achievement.,Quack.。 ”
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and stood up to see Han Mingjin off with a half-cry and laughter. When he walked to the door, Han Mingjin suddenly remembered something, and looked back at the two: "By the way, the young idol who has been combined with JYP has a good image in all aspects." If you are a singer, the sooner you transform, the better. You pick a few TV series that are not very heavy in time period and weight for them to play. You can see the specific plan. Yoo Eun-hyuk and Ha Jinyeol nodded in agreement, and then watched Han Mingjin leave.
Han Mingjin looked at the time, it didn't seem to be early. After thinking about it, he asked the iron warrior to drive the car towards the apartment. As a result, as soon as I entered the door, I saw Kim Tae-yeon sitting in front of the computer and surfing the Internet. Seeing Han Mingjin walking in front of him, Kim Taeyeon greeted him with a smile: "Are you back?" Han Mingjin touched his nose: "I've been idle for you recently, haven't you? ”
Kim Taeyeon looked out the window curiously, then pursed her lips and pushed him with a smile: "Ah." It's almost dark. Where is it still daytime?" Han Mingjin took off his clothes and hung them on the hanger, and then threw himself on the sofa: "Have you eaten?" Kim Taeyeon shook her head: "Ah twist." I'll wait until you come back to cook and eat. Han Mingjin glared at her dissatisfiedly: "Really, can you still marry like this?" I didn't eat lunch, and now I'm so hungry. ”
Kim Taeyeon was stunned for a moment, frowned and stepped forward to sit next to him: "Why don't you eat? Are you busy?" Han Mingjin narrowed his smiling eyes: "Then do you think I'm very idle?" Holding Kim Taeyeon's hand and sitting up, Han Mingjin shook his head helplessly: "I'm surprised." It's also a combination of the general trend, I don't talk about it from 9 to 5 every day, and I actually skip a shift from time to time...... No, isn't that always what you tell me?"
Kim Taeyeon gave him a blank look, picked up her bag and opened it. Then he took out a few pieces of gummies and handed them over: "Eat this first, don't have low blood sugar." I'll cook for you. Han Mingjin looked at the package and smirked half-loudly: "Gummies...... Kim is too soft...... Hey. Han Mingjin pinched it with a cheap smile: "It's really soft enough." ”
Kim Taeyeon pushed him down, kicked him a few more times, and then muttered something and walked towards the kitchen. Han Mingjin came to the kitchen door with a gummy candy and watched Kim Taeyeon busy wearing an apron: "Do you know how to cook?" Kim Taeyeon smiled: "It's definitely not as good as you." But I can barely eat it. ”
Han Mingjin nodded: "Okay." If I can't eat it, I'll go out and eat. Kim Taeyeon turned around and glared at him, "You dare! All!" Han Mingjin touched his nose: "Actually...... You may be better than the rice. Kim Taeyeon was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips and smiled at him, muttered a stinky boy, opened the refrigerator and began to sort out the ingredients.
Han Mingjin saw that Kim Taeyeon had been frowning and rummaging for something, so he stepped forward and looked at the refrigerator: "What's wrong? What's so tangled?" Kim Tae-yeon looked at Han Mingjin with a sneer: "It seems to be ...... It looks like it's all meat. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well. ”
Han Mingjin casually stuffed the last piece of gummy into Kim Taeyeon's mouth, and helplessly dragged her up and pushed out of the kitchen: "Let's oppa." Really, I can see it. If I don't do it myself, I'm going to starve to death. Referring to others is definitely not being able to refer to it. Kim Taeyeon stuck out her tongue and stood in the doorway and watched. After a while, seeing Han Mingjin put on his apron and take out the ingredients, he was busy with his work, and Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but smile and lose his mind. It's not that I can't do it, but I want to eat what you do...... Alone once.
