CHAPTER XXVII. 1/2
Park Young-joon didn't know what he was thinking about in his silence, he was used to something peculiar and even frightening about Ahn Joon-hyuk, so after asking, he didn't get an answer, so he didn't dwell on it anymore.
The effect of the alcohol has been working, the brain is a little drowsy, the cold wind blows, I can't feel the chill in it, the head is heavy, as if it is being baked by the stove.
But there was still a trace of clarity in his mind, which reminded him of an incident he had forgotten to report.
"Jun-hyuk, you asked me to pay attention to JYP, and I found something strange. ”
"Huh?"
A beam of light swept from the outside, and the figure Ahn Junhyuk turned his head to look at, and it fell in Park Yingjun's eyes, which was a pitch-black outline in that light.
He squinted his eyes and was in a trance, and then he came to his senses and said: "I am not very familiar with the doors and doors in the entertainment industry, but there are some channels in other circles, and recently several shareholders of JYP are quietly borrowing cash, and it seems that their business is in trouble." I don't know much about Park Jin-young's situation, he doesn't have any other properties, but I heard from Jeon Byung-kook that the people he sent to keep an eye on him noticed that JYP has been in and out of a large number of strangers recently, and he often stays there all day, and once he saw Park Jin-young arguing with those people in the underground parking lot...... Oh, yesterday, another gang of thugs went to JYP to make trouble, and they were arrested by the police after the worst, but it seems that they were released again soon!"
As he spoke, even in a drunken haze, he showed a weird smile: "Jun-hyuk, these things are connected in a way that always makes me feel familiar...... Yuan Cheng, don't you say?"
Ahn Joon-hyuk didn't speak. Yuan Cheng, who was still driving in front of him, glanced at Park Yingjun from the rearview mirror and replied expressionlessly: "It's very familiar, the standard process of the gangster's acquisition of enterprises!"
Won Sung is right, intimidation, harassment, negotiation, multi-front, this is the standard process for the gang to buy a regular business, because they have done this in Busan before, but at that time they were guarding the fishing dock to buy and sell.
"What do you mean, someone is trying to buy JYP?" said a somewhat lazy change of seat. The left leg is stacked on top of the right leg. Holding his jaw with one hand on the armrest, Ahn Joon-hyuk asked.
Park Yingjun spread his hands: "Eight or nine is not far from ten! JYP is a private company, and it is very difficult to make a normal acquisition, if it is me." I would choose this method as well. On the one hand, there is constant harassment. Interfering with the normal operation of JYP, undermining the confidence of the company's shareholders, and on the other hand, sending people to sabotage the business activities of those shareholders themselves - well. When I contacted JYP shareholders about the cash borrowing, it seems that this step has already worked, and most of those people's liquidity has been broken. In this case, as long as you continue to negotiate and the offer is not too dark, you have a good chance of success!"
This is inevitable, on the one hand, it is the shares of the company that can be given up, and on the other hand, it is the business that you can live in, as long as you can't support it, everyone knows how to choose!
But these are just speculations, Ahn Jun-hyuk pondered for a moment and ordered: "Tomorrow, you contact Jeon Byung-kook and find a way to find out the origin of those strangers who came in and out of JYP." ”
"There's no need to be so troublesome!" Park Young-joon waved his hand, "Didn't you promise Yang Hyun-seok to go to YG tomorrow to sit down?" Just ask him, don't look at that guy like a sissy, in fact, he is very well-informed, I dare say, he must know the inside story of JYP's recent turmoil!"
After thinking about it, Ahn Jun-hyuk nodded.
Yang Xianshuo has been in the circle for many years, has traveled all over the place, and has a wide range of contacts, although he is a little miserable now, but he can't be underestimated because of this, JYP's matter, even if he can't know it all, he will definitely be able to find out the clues!
"Speaking of which, Jun-hyuk, why do you care so much about JYP?
"Oh, it doesn't matter, in fact, it's still related!"
replied casually, and Ahn Jun-hyuk didn't say anything more.
He remembered the last time SM was blocked in the secondary market, and it was he who used the abundant funds of "Park Sun-young Venture Capital" to help SM tide over the difficulties, but although he defeated that Changhe Real Estate, he was deeply impressed by the resilience, strength and timing shown by the other party in the blockade.
Under the conditions at the time, he and SM's management colluded with each other to initiate an anti-takeover clause without the knowledge of most shareholders and Changhe Properties, which could have dealt a heavy blow to Changhe Properties in one fell swoop.
It's just that the other party is very decisive, and just realized that something was wrong, and found that the cost of continuing the acquisition would increase significantly, so he immediately gave up the acquisition, threw away the SM shares in his hand, and withdrew in time, which not only minimized his own losses to the greatest extent, but also made the follow-up poison pill plan he prepared at that time fail.
From blocking in the secondary market, to tender offer, to going out.
The other party has a spicy eye, acts decisively, takes every step just right, and even if he falls into a disadvantage, he firmly grasps the initiative, such an opponent is really a little difficult.
At the same time, Ahn Junhyuk was vaguely worried, he didn't think that Changhe Real Estate's blockade of SM was a temporary speculation, or just for SM, in his occasional leisure deduction assumption, Changhe Real Estate ...... In other words, the behind-the-scenes power of the black knight who commanded Changhe Real Estate mostly wanted to intervene in the entertainment industry, and the reason why he set the target on SM was just a coincidence, borrowing the east wind that he wanted to blackmail SM at the beginning.
If this is the case, the setback of the acquisition of SM is estimated to only stop for a while, and they will eventually make a comeback!
The reason why he cared about JYP's situation was his intuitive feedback on this worry, and he wondered if it was the black knight who had fought against him who caused JYP's turmoil.
…… If so, things are going badly......
He closed his eyes slightly and pondered silently.
Because that kind of behavior means that intervening in the entertainment industry is part of the other party's strategic development, so they will persevere, and at the strategic level, there is usually no compromise at all.
Either the layout succeeds or it destroys!
At that time, JYP will only be the first agency to die, and once the other party enters the agency, it will be SM or his J.H. will become a stumbling block for the other party.
The difference is that SM is a stumbling block because of its current position, and J.H is because of its future goals!
If J.H wants to grow and develop, he will inevitably conflict with the layout of the other party, unless he is willing to have a powerful force that surpasses SM, is above everyone, and is willing to obey the rules and will set by others for himself and J.H.
Otherwise, you can only take precautions and start to resist!
……
Together with Woncheng. He first sent Park Young-joon back to the hotel where he was staying. Ahn Jun-hyuk then returned home.
At home late at night, Jisoo and Yoona were already asleep, and when the light in the entrance was on, it was over in the living room. The TV's standby screen flickered slightly. Immerse yourself in a dimly lit space. Facing the direction of the TV. Lin Xiujing leaned back on the sofa and dozed off.
She didn't know how long she had been waiting, and she was sleeping like a child, with one hand on her chin. Little by little, a few crochet needles and a scarf with a small half crocheted out, lay quietly and casually beside her.
suddenly remembered what Park Young-joon had asked when he was in the car before.
He has a career, a family, and the whole person should be stable, so should he give her an answer?
She never asked him for an answer, she seldom even asked for anything, every day, every day, she just stood in one place, waiting for him to think of her at his leisure, and then come to her.
Every day, as in the old days, she snuggled up at home, waiting for him to come back from outside, and then take the coat from him. Just like today, he called her and said that he would come back late tonight, but she was still waiting here until she was too sleepy to open her eyes, and until the TV channels she was watching were turned off in the middle of the night.
He knew that she didn't want to put pressure on him, so she always waited silently, and by now, she had actually formed a habit.
Looking at her sleepy face silently, the gentle woman leaning on the sofa tapped her head a few more times, and then the hand supporting her chin slid away, and the whole person's figure stumbled suddenly, and before Ahn Junhyuk got up to support her, she had already subconsciously woken up, and her sleepy eyes blinked a few times in confusion, and she groped for the unhooked scarf next to her with one hand, picked it up, yawned and seemed to continue.
Then, I saw him standing not far away.
The brain, which had just broken free from sleep, was still a little confused, until he sat down beside her with a smile and put his arms around her shoulder, she snuggled into his arms as if she had just woken up, and said with a little chagrin...... Somehow I fell asleep!"
"Just came back. ”
"After dinner, I cooked you some decanting soup, and while it's still in the kitchen, I'll serve it to you......"
As she spoke, she wanted to get up, but was pulled back into her arms by An Junhye.
She was a little strange, but she didn't think much about it, just smiled: "What's the matter, don't make trouble, drink the sobering soup first, otherwise you will have a headache tomorrow!"
He didn't answer, just hugged her tightly, buried his cheeks in her neck socket, breathing in her body, the fragrance of bathing in her hair.
The warm breath kept spraying on some sensitive skin, it was very itchy, Lin Xiujing shrank a few times, but she couldn't bear to push away his hug, struggled for a while, didn't break free, and had to pant and whisper in protest: "Hey, don't make trouble, don't you want to drink soup...... Then, I'll put bathwater for you...... Belch...... Don't kiss there......"
The last protest turned into a dull snort.
In the darkness, the woman trembled slightly, biting her lower lip, her hands interspersed in his hair, wringing at a loss, feeling his kiss slowly slide from her neck to her chest, and finally tease her most sensitive place on the tip of her tongue.
Then, she let out a low exclamation, and the whole person was picked up and went upstairs.
In the following time, it was probably full of spring in the room, a curtain of moon in the sky outside the window, covered by clouds, when its bright colors fell on the earth again, in the bedroom where the wind and rain were resting, Ahn Junhyuk looked down at Lin Xiujing, who was sleeping in the crook of his arm with his smooth shoulders exposed.
She didn't know what she dreamed of, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly, outlining an arc called joy.
lit a cigarette, took a puff silently, a little spark flickered in the dark, and after a while, a sound like a sigh erupted with a thick smoke, full of inexplicable taste...... (To be continued......)
