From the afternoon of the 16th, the day of the incident, with the full clarification of the number of missing people and the identity of the victims' students, the whole Korean society felt a mountain of pressure, and then it was seriously affected:

The entertainment industry has suspended all its activities, and the entertainment market has basically been cut across the board; the military has also stopped its ongoing military exercises and all foreign exchange activities; on the economic front, all marketing activities have been cancelled, and the service industry has been frozen, and the tourism industry has completely fallen into a state of anchorage; on the political front, the local elections that were already underway have also been suspended; in the cultural and educational fields, schools across the country have been given emergency notices, all traditional school trips have been canceled, and those who are already on the way have been asked to return to school......

And back to the accident itself, every step of the development of the matter has also been followed by the South Korean people in detail and unmistakable:

On the evening of the 16th, at the strong request of the family, the coast guard organized a rescue operation, but it was soon aborted by the high tide;

On the morning of the 17th, there was basically no hope for water rescue, so the government began to recruit diving volunteers from all over the country, and received a very positive response, and some people even came with homemade small diving bells to beg to join the rescue;

On the afternoon of the 17th, South Korean President Ms. Park personally went to the scene of the incident;

During the day on the 18th, a passenger who still showed signs of life was found, but the medical means were powerless, considering that the mobile phones in the cabin that had been in contact with the outside world before this time also fell silent early, which basically means that the golden rescue time has lost its effectiveness;

On the evening of the 18th, Jiang, the leading teacher of Danyuan High School, who had been successfully rescued but disappeared, was found hanging, and the suicide note left before his death deeply expressed his guilt, and bluntly said that he hoped to scatter his ashes in the sea area of the incident to atone for his crimes;

On the 19th, after realizing that the rescue operation could only be done in the future, perhaps it was really angry, or maybe it had other plans, in short, the "JoongAng Daily" fired at the government, and they went through all kinds of absurdity and incompetence of the government and the ruling party in the rescue activities, and bluntly demanded that the prime minister step down, and because most of these were well-known real hammers, coupled with the sorrow of the whole country, the effect of the public opinion attack was very obvious.

On the 22nd, in the face of accusations from almost the whole society, South Korean Prime Minister Chung Yeon-won publicly admitted that the rescue was ineffective, and bowed and apologized to the families of the victims and the whole society.

On the morning of the 23rd, which is also the first seven days of most of the victims, the South Korean government finally released a relatively official and accurate casualty and rescue report, 162 people were killed and 140 people were missing, most of whom were students on a school trip to Danwon High School......

In this way, until the evening of the 23rd, with the concept of the first seven, with the song industry, the fashion industry, and the TV station as the main body, the Korean entertainment industry held a comprehensive charity prayer party in the name of the Artist Rights Mutual Aid Committee to raise funds, and the location was selected at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium...... Of course, prayers and donations are only a secondary purpose, and the main thing is to take the opportunity to resume normal commercial entertainment.

Otherwise, we can't just drag it on, right? Seven days is already nerve-wracking and unprecedented. In fact, the film side resumed normal business activities as early as the third day after the incident, with the help of the executive order of the Film Promotion Committee.

However, although there are other plans, the event itself is still relatively serious, so not only the artists chose to be present as much as possible, but also the bosses of major companies such as Kim Jong-ming, Lee so-man, Yang Hyun-suk, and then the directors of major TV stations, almost all of these powerful bigwigs in the circle also chose to attend.

In addition, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, as an official representative, sent Lee Byung-soon, the current first vice minister who served as the head of KBS, to the platform, and even several major religious denominations in South Korea have sent a considerable number of clergy to assist the committee in this prayer event...... As Kim Young-min and those people thought, if this kind of thing happens, who has the heart to pursue any that supports homosexuality?

"What's wrong, who has a conflict with whom?" In other words, Park Jin-young, who came a little late, just sat down at the designated seat, and felt that his hair stood up, because he found that the guest seat was full of steam, but everyone looked solemn and had no communication, and the atmosphere was completely condensed to the freezing point.

"Nothing. Yang Xianshuo, who was next to him, lowered his hat hard, and then replied in a low voice. "But this is the most terrifying, everyone doesn't communicate, they don't dare to communicate easily, and they don't know what will happen, it's better to have a fight with whom!"

Park Zhenying was even more panicked at this time: "According to this, there will be no accident today, right?"

"It's okay if something happens!" Yang Hyun Suk shook his head slightly, revealing the iconic chrysanthemum face under his hat. "Three hundred students are gone, isn't it normal for anything to happen?"

Park Jin-young was speechless, but after waiting for a while, he suddenly remembered a key question: "What do you say about the donation, is it still the previous arrangement, there is no major change, right?"

"Probably not. Yang Juhua thought for a moment, and then gave a positive answer. "At least I don't know anyone who wants to change it. And besides, the plan set by the committee is very correct, idols who have not debuted for a long time and are in financial difficulties are not recommended to donate independently, and then those who can afford to recommend a limit of 10 million won per person. As for big-name artists and entrepreneurs who have been debuting for a long time or have a high income, it is recommended that each person should not exceed 100 million won, so as not to cause trouble to business operators who are in financial difficulties...... All sides have thought of it!"

"That's what I said, but I'm afraid that something will go wrong, and I will be disliked when the time comes. Park Jin-young couldn't help but interrupt the other party. "You don't know the surging ...... of public opinion right now"

"How could I not know?" Yang Hyun Suk was speechless, and because there were more and more people entering, his voice was raised by the noise around him. "It's just that it shouldn't go wrong. Not to mention that if you donate too much, you will be disliked by your peers, the key is that private donations have never been a mainstream thing in South Korea, and 100 million won or 10 million won is enough to satisfy the public...... And there is another one, this is not a natural disaster and post-disaster reconstruction, and the donation itself is of little significance to the victim's family. What's the use of donating more money? Is it meaningless to give funeral expenses? The public and the media also understand it! This time, the main thing is to reopen the entertainment market in the name of praying for blessings, and donations are a kind of collateral, so instead of thinking about this, it is better to be more serious when mourning!"

"Yes. Park Jin-young believed the other party's words after a little thought...... Because no matter what, the other party has a sentence that is right, that is, in the current situation, no matter how much money there is, there is no point in donating money, there is no place to use it at all, and even this donation to the Red Cross, I heard that it is just to buy some supplements for the folk divers who go to help.

However, it is clear that Park Jin-young was still upset and restless by the atmosphere around him, so after continuing to stay up for a few minutes, he couldn't bear it, so he finally got up and left for the time being, and went to find someone on the side of the idols' seats.

And not long after Park Jin-young left, the core area of the guest seat, probably because more and more people entered, finally began to have some waves here, some people have begun to talk to each other, and some people have gradually begun to discuss openly...... It can be seen that the oppressive atmosphere just now is completely caused by everyone's spontaneous and unanimous caution, and it is not who wants to deliberately make trouble with whom.

In this way, when the tense atmosphere relaxed a little, as the vice minister of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and the highest official status here, Li Bingchun sitting in the middle of the guest seat was naturally asked by his 'old friends' to tell some 'inside information'...... So soon, it became Lee Byung-soon's personal speaking area.

"The ship began to show signs of capsizing before 8 a.m. Lee Byung-soon frowned, looking quite helpless and regretful, and his main audience was all concentrated in the row behind him, as for the two big names next to the former KBS TV director, one Kim Jong-myung and one Lee so-man, they all stared at the empty stage in front of them expressionlessly, and they didn't seem to have any intention of listening to any 'inside information' at all.

"At that time, the captain gave an order over the radio to tell the students to stay in the cabin and not to move around. ”

"For more than an hour, many children were on the phone with their parents and friends, sending kakao messages and so on, and most of the parents responded in the same way, that is, they wanted their children to 'listen to the captain'. ”

But in reality, the captain was a fool, and instead of being able to solve the problem, he wasted a lot of time, and by the time he realized that he was in trouble and signaled to the coast guard, it was already 9 o'clock in the morning. And he didn't forget to continue broadcasting to the ship, asking the children to stay in the cabin......"

"Everyone should know what happened next, the president received the news and made a televised speech at that time, and then the coast guard was immediately dispatched, and the media began to pay attention...... But it was too late, because in addition to helicopters, it was already 9:40 a.m. when the coast guard ships and fishing boats with real rescue capabilities arrived at the scene of the incident, but the time point when the ship completely capsized was 9:31 a.m. ”

"It rolls over, then capsizes, then the stern dips, the bow rises, and then gradually sinks until the bulbous bow at the bottom of the bow disappears completely, and more than 90 percent of the hull is completely tilted into the water. This process, which may seem slow to the naked eye, is actually very fast. What's even more terrifying is that this is a steel behemoth with a mass of seven thousand tons, so the process is simply irreversible. The coast guard helicopters that arrived first had no choice but to watch from the air. ”

"You don't know, the coast guard is also helpless, and when they and the surrounding fishing boats rush over, the only thing they can do is to fish up those who chose to leave the cabin and escape privately because of 'disobedience'...... Among them were the captain and most of the crew, who not only put on their life jackets early, but also did not notify the students in the cabin when the ship completely capsized, so that the vast majority of the "obedient" students, a total of nearly 300 people, completely lost the last real chance to escape. ”

"So, that captain is a complete murderer!"

"Look at it, the government will never let him go!"

……

In other words. Just when Li Bingchun was talking, Li Xiuman, who had been expressionless all the time, suddenly opened his mouth. "Does Minister Li think that the responsibility for the 300 lives in this shipwreck accident lies all on the captain?"

Li Bingchun was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his head: "I didn't say that! But it is undeniable that this captain is the first person responsible at the legal level, and he must pay the price! In fact, legally speaking, we can only hold these people accountable." ”

"But that's not enough!" When speaking, Li Xiuman still looked at the empty stage in front of him expressionlessly, without the slightest intention of turning his head to look at the faces of the interlocutors. "Not to mention the quality of students, but only 300 lives, can a captain and a few crew members really bear the responsibility of 300 lives? Minister Li, do you know how much life means to his family? Can you, a government dignitary, who talk eloquently, really understand the thoughts of those parents who have lost their loved ones?"

"All I can say is that I empathize with those parents. In the strange silence of the people around him, Li Bingchun could only answer hard.

"How can you empathize?" Li Xiuman's face finally had a vivid expression, and it was obviously mockery. "People know that their relatives are still alive through a layer of iron sheets, but they can only sit on the seawall and do nothing, waiting for their loved ones to die...... You say, how can you empathize, and you don't have a loved one to die!"

Li Bingchun's face was already blue early, but he was speechless.

"Alright. At this moment, Jin Zhongming on the other side also suddenly sighed. "Everyone is uncomfortable, there is no need to say these meaningless words at this time......"

"Do you think my words are unreasonable?" Lee so-man was like a thorn in his hand today, and after scolding a vice minister of culture who has a huge influence on KBS TV, he actually started to scare Kim Jong-ming again.

"Quite the opposite. Jin Zhongming turned his head without showing weakness. "I think what they said makes sense, but I don't think what they said makes sense, which is not a contradiction...... Questions?"

Li Xiuman and Kim Jong-ming looked at each other for a while across a Li Bingchun, but in the end, the former snorted coldly and took the lead in withdrawing the confrontation.

"Minister Li, that captain deserves a thousand cuts, and I'm sure no one will deny that. Seeing Li Xiuman's weakness, Jin Zhongming stared at the other party unhurriedly. "Legally, he, the crew and the shipping company are the only ones responsible, and I don't deny it, at least I don't ......deny it personally."

At this point, Li Xiuman over there snorted coldly, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with this statement.

However, Jin Zhongming ignored him at all, but continued to explain his views to Li Bingchun under the attention of a large group of core figures in the entertainment circle and some religious circles around him: "But Minister Li, you have to understand that the responsibility at the legal level is only the responsibility at the legal level, and you have said so much, do you really think that you can make everyone ignore the administrative responsibility in this accident?

Li Bingchun's face was pale, and he stopped talking.

At 11 o'clock at noon on the day of the incident, you openly told the parents who had just arrived at the scene that all the people had been rescued, were they not from the South Korean Security Headquarters?

"In the evening, I told the parents who received the message that they would go into the water and would go into the water, but because of the phone call from the Blue House, the rescue meeting of the private divers was interrupted, and it was not the people from the Coast Guard who finally ran to eat noodles?"

"People themselves came to save people with diving bells, and they ordered to stop them because they were afraid of taking responsibility, aren't you government officials?"

At this point, Jin Zhongming suddenly felt a little discouraged, because he reacted suddenly, this kind of material is inexhaustible.

In fact, in the fragments of his memories he recalled, it seems that all levels and departments of the South Korean government have been using absurd and ridiculous ways to stimulate the families of the victims and the entire Korean society...... For example, there is such a thing, by about 2016, many families of victimized children actually received military service notices from their children!

Yes, that's right, these middle school students should also be adults, and it is their obligation to serve in the military, but the premise is that they have to live, right?!

However, the South Korean Military Service Agency was stunned to do such a sensational thing, and they issued 92 military service physical examination notices in one go, causing a big uproar in public opinion!

"The government has its problems. Seeing that Jin Zhongming suddenly stopped talking, Li Bingchun reluctantly interjected.

"Everyone is an adult, who doesn't know the difficulties of the government?" Jin Zhongming shook his head, and he was about to die down, and he became more and more angry. "It's nothing more than that the top and bottom don't want to take responsibility, do more wrong, do less wrong, and make less mistakes, so let's just make peace with the mud together! Is this truth not understood or does President Li Xiuman not understand? But have you ever thought about it, since we all understand, why are you still full of anger at the government? Even if you don't hesitate to catch an official from the Ministry of Culture who has nothing to do with the rescue, just spray it directly?"

Li Bingchun wanted to speak and stopped.

"I'll tell you, for two reasons. Jin Zhongming stared at the other party helplessly and said. "One is that you have gone too far, and the whole rescue process is basically equivalent to transparency, so that everyone feels that the role of this government has been so low that maybe it would be better if it didn't exist! The other one, just like President Li Xiuman said, the matter is too big, the lives of 300 students are too heavy, just one captain and a few crew members are not enough, someone needs to continue to stand up and explain, and if the legal responsibility is not enough, the administrative responsibility must continue to be filled, otherwise the parents and the whole society will not agree! So, Minister Li, ask yourself, are your words reasonable but meaningless?"

At this moment, Li Bingchun simply closed his mouth, and there was no intention to open his mouth again.

"President Lee. After getting rid of Li Bingchun, Kim Jong-ming aimed at Li Xiuman again.

"What?" Li Xiuman did not show weakness. "Are you trying to say what I said, and it makes sense?"

"Yes!" replied Kim Jong Ming affirmatively. "Now that you understand, there's no need to say any more. ”

"Why don't you say it?" Li Xiuman sneered. Yes, I know that it is not my turn to pursue such a thing as administrative responsibility, and no matter how much I scold him, it will have no practical effect...... But if it doesn't work, don't you allow me to scold? Didn't you just scold quite comfortably? Why can't I?"

"It's going to get you in trouble. Jin Zhongming replied earnestly and without scruples. "It's okay for me to scold a few words, some people don't dare and won't trouble me, but if you say this, maybe someone will trouble you and your company. ”

"I don't care. Li Xiuman replied coldly. "If you can make me feel more comfortable, if you want to find trouble, you can come and find it! Minister Li, are you trying to make trouble for me?"

In the face of this naked provocation and the obviously somewhat out-of-control emotions, Li Bingchun, who was sitting in the middle of the two, simply closed his eyelids and kept silent, while Jin Zhongming was helpless, as for the people around him, they couldn't help but look at each other, and even exchanged heads and ears, and even walked around.

There is nothing to say in the first half of the party, everyone's mind is not on it, the selection of several programs is also very serious, and the artists dare not play more, it is more the sensationalism of a few MCs...... Then, when the time reaches a certain point, the real drama meat is also the link that can attract the most attention and become a topic.

It's finally time to donate money!

In fact, the attitude of Koreans towards such a thing as donations is very contradictory, they are both petty and generous, both valued and despised at the same time, realistic and exaggerated, some places are open-minded and admirable, and some places are inexplicable...... If we had to make a general distinction, we would probably have to make a distinction between collectivism and individualism.

Among them, in the collectivist atmosphere or the concept of collectivism, they will be generous and do not seek any reputation, and sometimes there will even be people who take donations for charity as a matter of course as a necessity of life.

For example, in this awareness, many high-income groups will naturally give a proportion of their monthly income to the church, and some people who can't trust the church will choose to donate their money to large-scale NGOs such as Beauty Bank. And any company with a certain scale will have a special charity department, either to connect with the education port, or to connect with the environment port, and then organize employees to participate in collective charity activities every year and be generous!

In the atmosphere of individualism, their donations seem stingy and realistic, and it is also dizzying that fans of artists will make news when they help donate a few bags of rice, and the chairman of the dignified SK, Chey Tae-won, donated 200 million won at a time, and there are newspapers like "Dong-A Ilbo" to praise them by name.

Of course, this is a big issue, and it won't be over if we really talk about it...... So back to the present, this donation obviously belongs to the latter, that is, a purely personal donation, plus the donation itself is of little significance, so the number should be small and realistic. And given the level of recognition and respect that South Koreans have for private donations, I am afraid it will be sensitive.

In fact, in order to prevent this, the committee had roughly communicated with the artists and entrepreneurs in the entertainment industry before, and set two very suitable standard lines of 10 million and 100 million won.

In this way, as the party progressed, the donation activities also began in an orderly manner, and the first ones who took the initiative to submit the donation amount were actually several crews, that is, those crews who were about to continue broadcasting dramas, and the amount was basically a uniform of 5 million won...... This number is actually very low, but it is also very easy to understand, because for the crew, the main role of this donation is actually to buy a broadcast license on public opinion, and people who have a lot of things to do when the time comes, saying that their plot is out of place and brings harm to the people.

And besides, donating in the name of the crew and laying a bottom line figure will also save the embarrassment of some people with relatively low donation figures.

However, it may be because this incident is too serious, and the tragedy is really unbearable, so there is actually no amount of donations that need to be covered. In fact, after the crew's wave of donations was submitted, the idols who came down were generally individual donations according to the original reminder of the 10 million won limit, and there was no lower figure than this. And soon, after the first round of a large amount of donations of 10 million won ended, many idols who were prepared couldn't bear it anymore and started to go directly to a higher amount.

First, Cho Gyu-hyun tentatively submitted a figure of 25 million, and then, a large amount of about 30 million won was submitted non-stop, and then starting with Bae so-ji, a new round of general amounts reached about 50 million won.

"You just went to confess?" Yang Hyun Suk frowned, staring at Park Jinying beside him with some puzzlement.

"No!" Park shook his head quickly. "But Suzy: They did mention it to me. From my point of view, there's no way to stop that, right?"

"But why, how can they be so positive?" Yang Hyun Suk looked a little nervous.

"Listen to them......" Park Orangutan was interrupted by the exclamations around him in the middle of his words, it turned out that there had already been a donation of 100 million won in the name of the group on the stage, which was Amink, and this also meant that there would inevitably be a large donation of 100 million won on the idol side alone.

Seeing this scene, the orangutan sighed slightly, and then continued to explain: "I also asked them, what they mean should be that they think things are too tragic and they should do something, but they don't know what they can do except donate, so in this case, it is better to donate more money for peace of mind...... The main thing is that feeling of being powerless is terrible!"

"It's because the accident was so tragic. Yang Xianshuo's face turned slightly pale, but he tightly pinched the donation card that he had written long ago, and it wouldn't be long before someone would accept the card with the amount written and his name, and then announce it according to the amount.

"Isn't the number a bit out of bounds?" In the middle of the guest seat, Li Bingchun was also a little frightened by this atmosphere, and the popularity of this donation was really a little higher.

"More than that!" The person who accosted him was not Kim Jong-myung or Lee so-man, but Kim Yong-sub, the head of SBS headquarters who was sitting in the back row. "A lot of artists who were supposed to be the main donors didn't donate at all. ”

"What do you mean?" Li Bingchun turned his head, completely confused by the other party's headless statement. "Are you saying they'll raise it up later? Wouldn't it embarrass the actors and the bosses over there?"

"Not really. Kim Yong-sub shook his head slightly. "I mean...... Many artists should be very dissatisfied with this 100 million won figure limit, but they also know that this boundary is reasonable, so they should have given up this party and donated a larger number anonymously or semi-anonymously through their own channels in advance, otherwise they would not have sat so calmly here. ”

Li Bingchun's eyes glanced around from the artist's side, and sure enough, he saw many people who had a good reputation and were not short of money but had not moved, and then nodded approvingly. However, at the same time, his mood could not be lifted in any way...... Without him, whether these artists are cultural figures, or treat them as ordinary people, when they are so enthusiastic about a donation that doesn't really make much sense, it can only show two things, one is that they are really excited about the accident, and the other is that they have nowhere to vent.

As a traditional bureaucrat, Lee Byung-soon is very afraid that the people will have this kind of mentality, because it means that a bad situation will get out of control.

The donations were transferred to the actors and veteran artists, and to be honest, the idols in front directly raised the amount to 100 million won, and a group of bosses in the back drew a line of 100 million won...... So what about that?

So from Jiang Hudong to Song Seung-hun, from Tiger-JK to Cha Seung-won, the 100 million won of one water is also neat and tidy, which makes people worry-free.

At the beginning, many people who were really shy in the name of entrepreneurs hurriedly handed over the 100 million won and their names to Miss Manners with a sense of relief. But there are also many people who hesitate, as if they want to do more.

Sure enough, as the numbers on the stage accumulated to about 5 billion won, suddenly a donation jumped out of 100 million won, which was previously the implicit upper limit that everyone tacitly accepted.

"President of JYP, Mr. Park Jin-young, 300 million won!"

The audience applauded warmly, and many people in the guest seat turned their heads to salute.

"Ahem!" When Park Jin-young felt that his gaze dissipated, he explained to Yang Hyun-seok beside him a little embarrassed. "The children are so welcoming, and we as bosses don't want to lose their face. ”

"No need to explain. Yang Xianshuo nodded calmly. "I can understand that. ”

Park Jin-young immediately remarked.

In fact, this is Park Jin-young's immaturity is not enough, of course Yang Juhua can understand, because just after the applause subsided, the host of the nine-o'clock news from KBS TV station on the stage immediately announced a donation height:

"Next, Mr. Yang Hyun-suk, President of YG, 500 million won! The cumulative amount of donations has now reached 5.8 billion won...... Maybe tonight we'll have a total donation that we'll be proud of!"

The audience in the stadium naturally applauded.

Yang Hyun-seok calmly greeted the stunned Park Orangutan on the side: "The main thing is that GD, this kid donated 300 million anonymously a long time ago, and the children are so enthusiastic, we can't lose their face as bosses...... Besides, isn't there still Kim Jong Ming in the finale? I'm afraid that if I donate less, it will become a joke when the time comes. ”

Park Jin-young smiled awkwardly but politely.

"There is only one donation slip left, and this is also the largest individual donation picked out by the back-office staff. The host held a donation card in both hands, and while explaining, he showed a slight expression of surprise that was not easy to detect, but he immediately hid it. "Let's look forward to ......"

Many people in the audience also looked strange.

How could it be the last one? At least the names Kim Jong Ming and Li Xiuman haven't appeared yet, right? These two should be finale-level figures, right? And the two of them are obviously sitting very close......

"The chairman of the company, Mr. Li Xiuman. Although the MC on the stage was also full of confusion, his responsibilities were not too much, so he just opened the card and read it. "One billion won!"

The audience exclaimed, but before the people below could react, the MC added a concept: "In this fundraising activity, the company's artists have contributed more than 50% of the total amount of all donations, please let us sincerely thank them......"

This is really not dark, from the amount of Lee so-man's personal donation to the contribution of the entire company is really admirable, so for a while, almost the audience stood up, Yang Hyun-seok and Park Jin-young could only look at each other, and then stood up side by side.

However, just when everyone gave a standing ovation and the party entered its climax, many people watched it really...... Jin Zhongming, who was supposed to be the real core figure of this party, stood up expressionlessly, tightened his coat, and then walked straight out along the guest passage. And Li Xiuman glanced at the other party, and didn't pay much attention to it, just continued to applaud with a stern face.

This situation made many people whisper again through applause.

"I guess there have been a large amount of anonymous donations for a long time, so I didn't have the idea of donating in the first place?"

"Anyway, this person has no reason to be stingy, and he is not a stingy person, right?"

"It's not necessarily that stingy, maybe people are angry with President Li Xiuman, aren't the two of them sitting very close?

"It's really possible that I was annoyed by Chairman Li's showy actions, and then stopped donating ...... in a fit of anger."

"It's not so ungraceful, is it?"

"Look at his face!"

"Chairman Li Xiuman is also a little unwise, right? If you offend so many people, you are not afraid of shooting the first bird. ”

"Even if you shoot a bird in the head, it won't be the turn of the people here today to be hunters, right?"

These words were naturally unknown to Jin Zhongming, who was walking out of the passage, and even if he heard it, he probably wouldn't have any reaction.

However, some people are naturally sensitive.

“oppa！”

A familiar but slightly cautious shout made Jin Zhongming stop, and when he looked back, he was really a very surprised person.

"Taeyeon. Jin Zhongming frowned slightly. "Why did you get out too?"

Because she had been on the stage before, Taeyeon was still wearing a dark gold stage costume at this time, so she could only run over with her skirt very carefully at this time: "Oppa, I have a ......"

"Got something to say?"

"Hmm. ”

"Let's talk about it. Jin Zhongming stood with his back in the dimly lit passageway, so that people who came could not see his face clearly.

"It's about Teacher Li Xiuman. Taeyeon explained carefully. "Actually, the teacher did this for a reason......

"I can roughly understand. Jin Zhongming replied in a flat tone. "We've had an argument before. So not only him, but I can understand everyone's enthusiasm today. ”

Taeyeon nodded slightly: "However, Teacher Li Xiuman's situation is a little more special. ”

"Really?"

"My wife's health has deteriorated very badly recently. Taeyeon explained in a whisper. "And very quickly, cancer ...... He should also empathize with those parents! The lives of his loved ones may dissipate at any time, but he can't do anything about it, so he has such strong emotions......"

In the gymnasium at the end of the passage, the applause finally dissipated, and in the darkness, Jin Zhongming was silent for a while before speaking: "...... I see, so that I can understand him better. ”

Taeyeon stopped talking.

"What's wrong?" Kim Jong Ming sensed something. "Anything else to say?"

"Nothing. Taeyeon replied in a low voice. "I thought that OPPA was angry with the teacher, but now it seems that ...... I can't tell. ”

"I'm not mad at him. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "I just don't think it makes sense...... He donated 1 billion won, and I contributed another 10 billion won...... What's the use of that? Can you really save a human life? It's been seven days, do you really think the rescue and donations are of any use now?"

"But there's nothing else you can do, right?"

"yes, that's why I said I wasn't angry at all. Jin Zhongming replied calmly. "Although I don't know much about Chairman Lee and his wife, I have long known that everyone can only do this. ”

"But I can really feel oppa, are you still angry?" Taeyeon became a little anxious and puzzled.

"I'm angry with myself!" Kim replied suddenly. "Unlike you, and unlike your teacher Li Xiuman, I really feel that I can do something...... For yourself, for the victims, for your conscience, or for your ambitions...... There are really things that can be done and can be done. It's just, it's just that until now, I don't have a clue...... This makes me quite ashamed and angry. ”

"I see. Taeyeon replied suddenly.
