Chapter 43 The Black Hand One asks for subscriptions, monthly passes, and recommended tickets
ps: I haven't had a chance to surf the Internet in the afternoon, and I'm sorry for being late~
From last night to today, the Internet has been surging, and the homepages of major portals are occupied by the name of "Ahn Junhyuk", one is a group of scandals about candid photos, and the other is about the contract dispute between Ahn Junhyuk and the brokerage company.
There are too many well-informed people in the circle, and it was just reported in the morning that Ahn Junhyuk's brokerage contract is about to expire, and he is not ready to renew the contract due to discord with the company's philosophy. Near noon, a so-called insider broke the news, saying that An Junhyuk was not valued by S.M at the beginning, and the contract between the two parties was only 2 years, and now S.M regrets it, Ahn Jun-hyuk has been suppressed recently, and even the conflict with JYP has not been supported by the company.
The so-called "ideological discord" is actually more of a disappointment.
As soon as this revelation came out, the entire network was blown upside down, and Ahn Junhyuk's hundreds of thousands of fans were furious, constantly brushing and posting to protest S.M's arrogance and impersonal feelings, and then, "Myth Creation" also joined in.
"We have long known S.M's face, it is good for Ahn Jun Hyuk not to renew the contract, so let's just leave the company and be with my brothers!"
"Boycott S.M.,I blocked my brothers at the beginning.,Now I want to continue to use the old means.,Get out of it!"
In 2003, S.M's contract dispute with Myth caused a stir, and later S.M's blocking measures made "Myth Creation" generally not have the slightest favor towards it, so naturally gloated and worked hard to smear it.
Originally, such remarks had an impact on a brokerage company. But it's not big, as long as a statement is issued to clarify, it will soon subside, so although many media follow the hype, it is just a joke, but at this noon, the situation did not develop as the media predicted.
At noon on the same day, MBC held a signing ceremony and press conference for Ahn Jun-hyuk to join the crew of "My Name is Kim Sam-soon", and the two sides signed the contract in front of many media reporters and answered media questions.
Ahn Joon-hyuk has rarely been seen in public lately. It's just that there is still the most news about him, from March to April, his name has basically been read by major newspapers and portals, and finally there is this opportunity to see his real person, and the scope of questions from the media who rushed to him will naturally not be limited to TV dramas.
At the press conference, after the first few routine questions about the type of TV series, about performances, etc., a reporter stood up. Suddenly, he asked loudly: "Ahn Jun Hyuk, what do you think of the scandal photos circulating on the Internet? The pixels of the photos are very clear. You have not spoken to deny it, may I ask if the heroine in the photo is really your girlfriend?
Ahn Junhyuk had expected this reporter's question, so he was not surprised, and after the other party finished asking, he replied calmly with a smile: "I don't know who Lu Dao is, who is scheming to secretly photograph my **, but what I need to state is." The girl wasn't my girlfriend and the scene in the photo wasn't us dating. It was yesterday when I and Jin Xuan'er's seniors, as well as the other two leading actors in the same crew, were having dinner outside, and the girl in the photo was my sister who had a very close relationship, just like my own sister. ”
This answer was clearly not satisfactory to the reporter. He was about to ask another question, but the host of the press conference over there had already called someone else.
"Ahn Jun Hyuk xi!" The new point was a KBS news reporter, different from the peer who was entangled in the scandal just now, the other party stood up and asked sharply: "This morning." Suddenly it was reported on the Internet that your contract with the brokerage company was about to expire, and you were not ready to renew it, and an insider broke the news that you were frustrated that the brokerage company did not support it, is this news true?"
As soon as the question came out, the whole scene suddenly fell silent, and the reporters who were originally eager to raise their hands or bury their heads in shorthand raised their heads and looked at Ahn Junhyuk fixedly.
This is the biggest purpose of their coming, what to join the TV series, what scandals, compared to this news, it is simply weak. Although they felt that maybe Ahn Junhyuk's answer was just some formulaic content, or it would be clarified, it did not hinder their small expectations.
Moreover, this expectation is indeed not wasted.
Hearing the man's question, the smile on Ahn Junhyuk's face gradually converged, and he was silent for a moment, and then he put on the microphone and said softly: "I'm sorry, I'm tired, that's all for today's press conference!"
Let's get up and leave!
There was a sharp uproar at the scene, so the reporters all stood up, their faces flushed with excitement, and they crowded over. For them, not answering in the face of questions is acquiescence, and avoiding means being tired, originally just holding the idea of what if, no one thought that they could really hook up the topic, and at this time, seeing Ahn Junhyuk's evasive reaction, how could they let it go?
But the venue for the press conference was the studio hall of MBC, Ahn Junhyuk just got up, and the staff who had already prepared for him stepped forward to stop the reporters who flocked over, the flash of the camera flashed frequently, and all kinds of questions converged into a noisy sound, coming from behind, and quickly followed Ahn Junhyuk's Kwon Bo Gen, looking sideways, I saw the sneer on the corner of his mouth.
Remembering what he had heard in the car in the morning, he suddenly felt that he should take a moment of silence for the company......
……
Sure enough, this evasive attitude, with the active promotion of various media, not long after the press conference, appeared on the front page of the TV news and portal website, and the reporters who thought that they had been hinted at gave full play to their imagination and interpreted Ahn Junhyuk's evasion of the problem as having the intention to leave the company, and the news spread throughout South Korea through TV and the Internet at a very fast speed.
One of the effects of this was that S.M's stock price continued to fall at the opening of the afternoon session.
At the beginning, it was only Ahn Junhyuk's supporters who sold their S.M shares in protest, and there were not many of them, so the decline was not large, only about 0.3%, but the subsequent changes were dizzying.
At 1 p.m. on the same day, a large sell order suddenly appeared on the market of S.M, and in just a few moments, the selling volume of thousands of lots pulled the decline to 1.2%, and the price continued to fall. The panic suddenly spread, and some retail investors who bought stocks in anticipation of appreciation in the past two days because they saw that S.M was doing well (mainly because Ahn Junhyuk took over the new drama and BOA Nikko was selling well in Japan), and in order to avoid losses, they had to follow the trend and sell to reduce their losses.
By the close of trading at 2 p.m., S.M's stock price had fallen by more than 5%, making it the first time since the mythical group left the company in '03. The worst of all.
Things are developing and changing too fast, even if S.M gets the news in advance and is ready to raise funds to save the market, but how can the funds be so easy to raise, even if the action is fast, the bank needs time to coordinate, and the decline of the day is simply irreversible.
And the next day, when the morning market opened, S.M finally had the ability to intervene. The news that Ahn Joon Hyuk is leaving S.M, and the plunge in the stock price yesterday. After a day of spreading, it has been known to most people, the panic spread further, even if S.M tried to eat, but could not stand the large number of retail investors to flee for their lives, and there was a keen sense of smell, the follow-up of short sellers who sensed the timing of shorting, by the end of the day, the decline reached a historic 15% since the establishment of the company.
this day. It has almost become a dark day for S.M, and in fact, even if Ahn Joon-hyuk leaves SM, it will not cause such a panic. After all, there are only a few fans among the shareholders, and as long as there are artists under S.M, such as BOA and Kangta, then the business situation can continue to remain the same. There is still room for appreciation, and there will not be so many sell-offs.
Anyone who has studied the reasons for the decline in S.M's stock that day has locked the culprit behind the current situation on the first day of the decline. Thousands of sell orders were suddenly thrown. Seeing the rapid shrinkage of the funds in their hands, how could anyone think rationally about the strangeness of it, so they naturally followed up one after another to reduce losses.
No one knows exactly when the mastermind behind the scenes began to set up a short position to prepare, and I don't know who targeted S.M as a prey, at least for the time being, S.M has planted a big heel, and this kind of sell-off phenomenon may continue.
"What next?"
The night is gentle, the clouds in the sky are floating by, the moon behind it is hazy and blurred, leaning on the railing of the balcony, blowing the cool breeze blowing in the face, Park Young-jun and Ahn Jun-hyuk, who are carrying a beer, are chatting about the two days of trading.
Turning his head to look at Ahn Joon-hyuk, who was silent, Park Young-joon asked: "Now many short sellers have followed up, S.M is a small company after all, and it can't last long, be careful that they jump over the wall in a hurry." ”
Ahn Jun-hyuk didn't speak, just looked at the city below, the bustling lights were floating under the clouds, standing on this high place and looking down, an indescribable coldness crept into his heart.
After taking a sip of beer, he knew what Park Young-joon meant by "the dog jumped over the wall", which was nothing more than asking the judiciary to intervene, although that would expose a series of problems in S.M. itself, but if the loss was beyond their capacity, I was afraid that even if Kim Young-min was unwilling, those directors would force him to make a choice.
But that's the last option, and the board won't dare to do that until the other options are blocked.
"Stop it for the time being!" After taking a sip of the beer in the bottle, Ahn Junhyuk said lightly: "Don't move what you eat in your hand." ”
"But in that case, we will also lose. ”
"Heh, someone will pay for us. Smiling slightly, Ahn Jun-hyuk patted Park Young-jun on the shoulder, "It's cold at night, let's go in, I still have something to tell you." ”
Park Yingjun looked at him in surprise: "Do you want me to go abroad again?" I just came back from speculating on copper at the beginning of the year, and there are no good projects for the time being, right?"
"It's not going abroad, it's about the security company I want to set up......"
As he spoke, he put his arm around Park Yingjun's shoulders, and the two slowly walked towards the house, and on the cold balcony, their voices gradually became weaker. The thin clouds parted a gap, and a beam of moonlight swayed down, reflecting the city, and in an office on the fourth floor of S.M., where the same moonlight was illuminated, Kim Young-min looked at an email he received, his face turned pale, but then turned pale.
On the screen with a faint light, the email listed the simple information of the black hand in the past two days, and at the bottom of the information, a name that made him incredible was mentioned - Ahn Junhyuk!
