Morning, 9:20 a.m.

Gan Jing walked out of the hotel and ended the interview with Dong-A Ilbo at the scheduled time.

"Boss, Dong-A Ilbo is one of the top three newspapers in South Korea, do you know what is the number one?"

Just got into the car, assistant Awen asked with a smile.

Gan Jing waved goodbye to the reporter who had just interviewed him through the window, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

"It's Chosun Ilbo, and it's also run by South Korea, but that's how the name came about, and many people thought at first glance that the newspaper in the north was selling too well and selling to the south. Arwen said interesting things, which was a time to soothe his mood.

After hearing this, Gan Jing just nodded "um", and his attention was obviously not on this.

Ah Wen didn't say anything more when she saw this scene, but continued to use her mobile phone to confirm the travel time with Lao Chen, she had done this before, but it was usually not as dense and sudden as today.

At 9:28, Gan Jinghe's assistants, Andy and Liu Tao arrived at the press conference.

This is a press conference of Huaxia Bairihong and South Korea's Xijie Entertainment Media, but because of the arrest of Lee Jae-hyun for tax evasion just now, there are a lot of reporters at the press conference, and the hustle and bustle makes the huge conference room feel crowded.

It was here that Gan Kyung met CJ senior director Lee Ka-yong, who was also Lee Jae-hyun's eldest son, who had spoken to him on the phone last night.

It has always been not uncommon for the chaebols in South Korea to buy real estate and inherit their father's business.

"Mr. Gan, thank you very much for your support, I believe that Xijie and the Hundred Days Red Society will have a beautiful cooperation. Li Jiarong walked quickly in front of Forrest Gump after seeing him, holding Forrest Gump with both hands.

"What is there to thank for the cooperation between the companies, I hope that the TV series "Sage Lich" can shine in the hands of Xijie. Gan Jing was also very polite, but under the change of mentality, he felt that this eldest son of Li looked a little simple.

Li Jiarong thanked him again and again, and then communicated about waiting for the press conference.

It was a somewhat rushed launch.

In fact, both parties who are about to sign the contract also know that it is not a pure press conference either.

Sure enough, after Li Jiarong announced in the name of the acting chairman that Xijie would buy the Chinese TV series "Sage Lich" for 16.8 billion won, there were some fries on the scene.

After a while, when the host signaled that he could ask questions freely, the reporters below were enthusiastic like fish in a pond being fed, and Gan Jing looked a little confused.

"Director Li Jiarong, has your status as acting president been recognized by the board of directors?" The first reporter to ask the question was very impulsive, asking not about the content of the cooperation, but about the identity of Li Jiarong, who was sitting next to Forrest Gump at the moment.

"Yes, the Board of Directors has passed the resolution, and I have the right to sit here. Li Jiarong replied.

"So, wasn't the first thing you did after you became the acting chairman to explain Chairman Lee Jae-hyun's tax case? As far as I know, TV dramas have never had a purchase price of 16.8 billion yuan, so why did you make the first decision to rush to buy foreign TV dramas that exceeded the market price?" The second reporter was much sharper than the first reporter.

Gan Jing could sense that the mood of Li Jiarong next to him seemed to have changed a little, so he coughed lightly as a reminder.

Both of them had microphones in front of them, and this light cough did not hide from the reporters present.

Without waiting for Li Jiarong to answer the question, the second reporter who had just spoken immediately pointed the finger at Forrest Gump: "In the case of problems with Xijie's company, Gan Jing came to us to sell TV series at a price higher than the market price, are you being a black-hearted businessman?"

Gan Jing was not angry that he was described as a black businessman, and he caught a glimpse of Li Jiarong's still unwillingness to answer, and after a little thought, he decided to answer.

"This price is not high, this is the first point, it costs as much as 33 billion won to make. Second, this is the first step in the strategic cooperation between the two companies, and there will be many more cooperation in the future. Gan Jing said unhurriedly.

Perhaps, people in companies like Li Jiarong are not used to facing reporters and cameras, but Gan Jing has long been accustomed to it and will not be deterred by such a scene.

Affected by his insipid attitude, Li Jiarong also answered the question just now: "Chairman Li Zaixian's case will go through legal procedures, and there will be further press conferences after the situation is clear. As for the price, Mr. Gan has already answered you just now. ”

"Chairman Lee Jae-hyun has the problem of tax evasion, does Xijie also have such a problem? Is this purchased Huaxia TV series a means used by Xijie to cover up tax problems?"

The third reporter still linked the case to the TV series.

Li Jiarong categorically denied: "The company does not have this kind of problem, the purchase of TV series is carefully analyzed and weighed, Bairihong Company is a very powerful company, we believe that this TV series will get a good reputation and ratings." ”

"As far as I know, Bairihong Company is only a film and television company that has been established for about two years, and this TV series is also the first TV series it has produced.

Even with Gan Jing's debut to the present, it is quite rare to meet reporters who have been entangled, not to mention, it is still someone else's business at the moment.

Well, someone else's business......

Gan Jing stretched out his right hand, grabbed the microphone, and emphasized: "I repeat, this purchase price is only half of the cost, and the TV series is worth this price." ”

He saw that the reporter who had just asked the question still wanted to speak, so he immediately said before the reporter spoke: "This cooperation is not only the cooperation between Bairihong and Xijie, but also the cooperation between me and Xijie." I don't think the price is high. ”

"Yes, Forrest Gump is fully worth the higher price, as a world-renowned actor, we Xijie and Forrest Gump will have more cooperation models to explore. Li Jiarong continued.

The host of the press conference finally interjected at this time: "Please ask questions about TV drama cooperation at today's press conference, please don't ask other questions." ”

The reporters sitting in the audience were very dissatisfied, most of them came here to listen to the attitude of Xijie Company to Lee Jae-hyun's arrest, Forrest Gump is certainly a point that can be written, but normal cooperation is not as violent as the case.

Another reporter asked, compared to the previous fierce rhetoric, this one was very scheming, he asked: "It is said that Forrest Gump has our Korean blood, is this the case?"

Gan Jing, who had been through the wind and rain for a long time, was stunned, he looked sideways at Li Jiarong, and then looked at the reporters under the stand, and suddenly laughed at such a serious press conference.

"You're kidding me!" ()
