Episode 470: Brother-in-law and sister-in-law
Zheng Xiyi, who returned home from CC, smiled like a little fox who had successfully stolen chickens, he didn't expect that Han Shimin didn't know that he was the real mastermind behind the scenes, so he got a lot more useful information today than expected......
Han Shimin is indeed Kim Youngmin's ally, mainly because Kim Young-min can't find any more allies in South Korea's S.M headquarters, so he set his sights on overseas branches, and finally exchanged the position of CC president for Han Shimin's alliance. Of course, the similarity of age and concept of the two sides is also one of the important factors, otherwise Han Shimin would have been mixed with Li Xiuman 800 years earlier, how can he use soy sauce in the United States for so many years.
Don't look at the title of S.M.USA representative director is very scary, Han Shimin actually has not much to do in the United States, except for holding a draft competition to send Korean-American children like Pani to S.M, his only work worth mentioning in recent years is probably Boa'er entered the United States at the beginning of this year, when Boa's first English album "BoA" was officially released on April Fool's Day, he rushed back to South Korea to take over as the president of CC.
Han Shimin did not wait for Boa's English album sales to come out before returning to South Korea, because he knew very well that Boa's attempt to debut in the United States would not be successful, and at the same time, he also had great interest in becoming the president of CC, because among the known Asian American artists, only CC's leading artist Zheng Xiyi took a path that went against the trend of Asian artists, wisely gave up the opportunity to only be a supporting actor in Hollywood for the rest of his life, and chose to develop in Asia instead.
It's just that he didn't expect that Kim Youngmin's move of kicking out Lin Xiyin made him an enemy of Zheng Xiyi without any choice, and in his style, he strongly disapproved of Kim Youngmin's behavior, but Kim Youngmin was an ally, and he was more authoritative than him in the ministry, so he could only acquiesce to his position. In fact, in his opinion, although the Girls' Generation project has turned over, Lin Xiyin, who can save such a desperate girl group, is more valuable than the project itself, not to mention that she also has a husband worth billions of dollars and a younger brother who is the treasure of Zhenshan, and it is not a wise move to be an enemy with her.
Of course, this is actually just Han Shimin standing and talking without back pain, if he sits in Kim Youngmin's current position, the tenth ** will also make the same choice as Kim Youngmin. In order to get back the power that should belong to him from Lee so-man, Kim Young-min must personally control the Girls' Generation project, and when it comes to his own life and death, Kim Young-min actually has no choice. It's just that if Kim Young-min knew that even if he didn't play the trick of picking peaches, Lim Hee-yin would return Girlhood to him in June at the latest, she would probably immediately cry and faint in the toilet......
It is not very accurate to say that Han Shimin and Kim Yingmin have the same concept, it can only be said that among the existing people in power in S.M, the only one who can talk to Han Shimin is Kim Yingmin, after all, the two are the same age, and they are both dissatisfied with the old-fashioned operation methods of Li Xiuman's generation, but Han Shimin has not fought soy sauce in the United States for so many years, and his concept is more American, so Han Shimin has resentment in his heart about Kim Yingmin's little trick of forcibly antagonizing him and Zheng Xiyi.
In his opinion, this kind of trick to artificially create discord between generals and commanders is a check and balance technique played by the monarchs of the ancient feudal dynasty in order to control their subordinates, and Kim Yingmin has obviously soaked in the mud pit of the S.M headquarters for too long, contaminated with the atmosphere of decay, and actually played this kind of conspiracy and tricks that can only bring internal friction.
Besides, in his eyes, although Zheng Xiyi is the largest individual shareholder and director, he is just an artist after all, Lin Xiyin has now resigned from all his real power positions, leaving only a director with empty equity and voting rights, which is not a threat at all, so who is Kim Yingmin's checks and balances to balance?
Han Shimin suddenly felt so cold......
In addition, there are only a few artists under CC now, and Lee Joon-gi is the only one who can show his hand except for Jung Hee-yi, but Lee Joon-gi is an artist discovered by Jung Hee-yi himself, so he is naturally closer to Jung Hee-yi, S.M's self-cultivated Gao Yala and Lee Yeon-hee are still struggling in the second line, and they have no right to speak at all, so to sum up, although Han Shimin is now the president of CC, he is immediately facing a bad situation of Kim Young-min being dragged behind and Zheng Hee-yi fighting in the ringοΌ
In order to ensure that he can show his ambitions in CC, Han Shimin's remaining options are only to drive away Zheng Xiyi and join forces with Zheng Xiyi. Getting rid of him is obviously not an option, and it is impossible for Kim Young-min to support him, let alone other directors, so Han Shimin only has the option of joining forces with Jung Hee-yi.
In order to make Zheng Xiyi believe that he is not his enemy, Han Shimin also fought hard, so he suddenly asked Zheng Xiyi a question, and after arousing Zheng Xiyi's interest, he went straight to Zheng Xiyi to have a showdown with him to turn the fight into a jade silk, Zheng Xiyi believes it or not, it doesn't matter if he believes it or not, there are two business elites behind him, Shen Yuanhao and Lin Xiyin, these two business elites will naturally have enough judgment.
Although it seems that Han Shimin is very undisciplined to defect to the enemy so quickly, from his point of view, Kim Yingmin, you just called me back from the United States as an ally, and immediately used this kind of trick to balance me, then don't blame the boat of friendship for capsizing. It's just that Han Shimin never expected that in order to tie him to the boat of friendship, Kim Yingmin deliberately concealed the most important information about "Zheng Xiyi is the big black hand behind Lin Xiyin" from him.
It is normal for Kim Young-min not to tell Han Shimin the truth, if Han Se-min really knew that Zheng Xiyi was the real mastermind behind the scenes, he would either squat in the United States and continue to play soy sauce and wait for the next opportunity, or simply run to hug Zheng Xiyi's thigh, and he would definitely not form an ally with Kim Yingmin to fight against such a demon. After all, Zheng Xiyi and Lin Xiyin are both directors who hold equity, and they are a hundred times stronger than Kim Young-min, the shell president who has no equity and no real power, and only regained the Girls' Generation project by playing scoundrels, if he hadn't taken advantage of the information asymmetry, Kim Young-min would not have been able to deceive him as an ally.
Han Shimin treats Zheng Xiyi as an ordinary artist, but he is only mixed up as a director because he has a good brother-in-law and a good sister, so he naturally won't be too wary of him, and in order to let Zheng Xiyi help him say a few good words in front of Shen Yuanhao and Lin Xiyin, Han Shimin has to put some real goods out to show his sincerity, so Zheng Xiyi has been tricked into a lot of useful information when he comes and goes.
Lin Xiyin and Shen Yuanhao listened to Zheng Xiyi tell about his conversation with Han Shimin today, and they also laughed happily, Lin Xiyin patted Zheng Xiyi's shoulder and said: "My mother has no job now, she can only take care of her children at home to do housework, and she is annoyed to death, so she lives by your joke, this joke is good today, at least enough for a month!"
"Uh...... Sister, do you mean that in order for you to continue to have jokes in the future, you have been like this President Han Shimin?"
Lin Xiyin rolled her eyes, "Anyway, without this joke, you have to find a new one, so it's up to you whether you continue to let Han Shimin be a fool or change to a new joke." β
Zheng Xiyi silently lit a candle for Han Shimin, but he will probably go to Japan for an audition next month, and it will not be his responsibility to make his sister happy at that time!
Lin Xiyin picked up her daughter and just wanted to go upstairs to sleep, but suddenly stopped, turned back to Zheng Xiyi and said, "By the way, what's going on with that Japanese movie? β
Zheng Xiyi was speechless and burst into tears, Lin Xiyin, you are really my biological sister, and you only care about yourself to be happy so much that this journey is rare in the world......
"I'll leave the fax and read it when you have time, sister. Zheng Xiyi pointed to the Wen JiΓ n folder that was thrown on the coffee table.
Lin Xiyin sneered and said: "I'm not your agent, so I don't care about your idle business, you have to think it's good for yourself, just take it if you want, you don't have to show it to me." β
After saying that, Lin Xiyin went upstairs with Xiao Qingtian in his arms, Zheng Xiyi spread his hands at Shen Yuanhao, pointed to the Wen JiΓ n clip on the coffee table and said: "Sister is still so arrogant, brother-in-law, you have really worked hard, this will be handed over to you, brother-in-law, I won't disturb your rest." β
Shen Yuanhao smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll take it up and show it to Xiyin, and I'll return it to you tomorrow morning." β
Zheng Xiyi waved his hand and said: "No need, the only thing that is useful in it is the outline of the script, and the script has not even been written." Fortunately, the original novel has already been published, so it doesn't matter if there is no script, I will look for this novel on the Internet and read it a few times before I speak. β
Shen Yuanhao paused, "I asked you to audition without a script? β
Zheng Xiyi smiled and said: "Not really, so when I plan to go to Japan to audition, I will ask the director what is going on." However, judging from the outline and synopsis, it is a good story, and the script will be a collaboration between the original author and the director, so the quality should be guaranteed, and besides, I am also going to Japan, and the audition is a good excuse. β
Shen Yuanhao tilted his head and glanced at the second floor, lowered his voice and said, "What, are you going to start?"
Zheng Xiyi shook his head and said: "There is no movement here in South Korea, because my sister's matter has dragged their attention, so I estimate that the outbreak will be later than predicted, and the power will be greater, and I went to Japan just to determine the situation of Ai Hui." β
Shen Yuanhao frowned and said, "Ai Hui has also been in contact with the BUGS over there, and they don't seem to have any intention of making a move, Xiyi, are you sure they will give up?"
Zheng Xiyi sneered twice and said: "Ai Hui's internal struggle in 04 hurt his vitality, and in 07, he entered China in a big way and was hit hard, and his performance declined for 5 consecutive years. Ai Hui just released this month's 08 financial report, overseas income is still very little, Japan's domestic performance continues to decline, according to this trend, next year may fall into a deficit, if TVXQ splits again, they don't even have the object to squeeze, and it is impossible to give up when the time comes. β
Shen Yuanhao nodded and said: "Since you say so, then I will let the people in the investment department pay more attention, and the BUGS side will continue to keep in touch with Ai Hui, and strive to let your sister vent her evil anger at this time next year." β
Zheng Xiyi laughed and said: "The cost of my sister's evil anger is too high, brother-in-law, you are really willing to do it." β
As soon as Shen Yuanhao wanted to speak, the floor on the second floor was trampled on loudly, Lin Xiyin leaned out from the railing, and shouted at Zheng Xiyi: "Ah! I'm coaxing your niece to sleep! Are you laughing so loudly because you want to die? Why don't you go back to your own kennel quickly! Shen Yuanhao, you also come up for me to coax my daughter to sleep, what the hell is it that you don't accompany your wife and children with your brother-in-law in the middle of the night, if your sister-in-law is still about the same!"
Zheng Xiyi and Shen Yuanhao spurted blood and retreated......
