Chapter 414 remembered!
The wedding was over, and Kim Jong-ming also returned to South Korea.
However, although he roughly knew the strength of the conservative forces in Korean society, after he really faced it, he found that he still underestimated this power a little.
In fact, in all fairness, Jin Zhongming's previous concept of conservative power itself was a bit of a blind man's feeling of touching an elephant. This is because all along, the conservative camp he deals with is actually only the conservative camp at the political level, that is, Aunt Park's group, and there is really some misunderstanding of the word conservative at the social level.
Conservatives in politics, to put it bluntly, are actually more of a general concept, mainly because there are more conservatives in their supporters, and it may be more appropriate to call it a combination of rightists and rightists.
For example, for example, Ban Ki-moon, the secretary general of the United Nations, probably because of his position, has a standard attitude of supporting homosexuality wherever he goes, while at the domestic political level, he is a figure who rose to prominence during the time of his mother's father, and belongs to the conservative political camp in South Korea.
The existence of this kind of person has undoubtedly brought some misunderstandings to Kim Jong-ming, making him think that the so-called conservative camp is a loose group that can be divided into groups, and the so-called conservatives are just that.
But in reality, the conservative camp at the social level in South Korea cannot be equated with the political camp at all, the latter is only the spokesperson of the former at the political level, and the influence of the former is very astonishing, and it involves all levels of the whole society. Moreover, in the face of some problems that touched their bottom line, the unity and execution of this inexplicable but universal group were a little beyond his imagination.
In fact, as soon as he returned to South Korea, Kim Jong-ming confronted the Chosun Ilbo in the media, conservatives in the cultural and academic circles, and almost all religious figures......
The last one is especially frightening!
You know, as far as Kim Jong-ming knows, the Korean Catholic Church is a de facto ally with the progressives like Moon Jae-in at the political level, while the Protestant Church has a good relationship with the aunt, the monks of the Cho Gye sect have a bit of a feeling of making a fortune behind closed doors and muffling usury, and the group of madmen of the Tiandao Sect are even more low-key so that people don't know what they are going to do. However, no matter what kind of political stance these people hold, whether they have made progress in religious reform or not, their stance on the issue of homosexuality is completely identical! At this time, Kim Jong-ming reacted that probably except for the Flying Noodle Sect, perhaps any religion is the natural basic plate of conservatives at the entire social level.
In comparison, the pressure on the political level that Kim Jong-ming was originally wary of is not worth mentioning...... However, this is not something to be excited about, because just the pressure of civil society and religious people, as well as various public opinions, has already made him anxious.
Of course there is no self-burning (harmony), and Kim Jong Ming is not a political leader, he will not change the world when he goes to a same-sex wedding, and of course it will not be like that!
There is no one who pours himself and then goes to him for a kiss, after all, these extreme religious people hate not Jin Zhongming, if they really see Zhang Minya and Liu Xianen, maybe there will really be such a show!
However, since returning from Hawaii, the criticism in the conservative media and the doubts of various NGO groups against CUBE have never stopped...... This general routine is to say that your idol is to set an example for the society, and now you are not clear about your position on this kind of issue, will it bring bad children?
Then the media set off guns, NGOs took action, and even went to the door of the company to hold up signs, which upset people.
It is worth mentioning here that there is really a brain-dead tara melon fan who pointed to the photos circulating at the wedding, saying that our Xiaomin and Eunjing are true love, and they will definitely take this road in the future, how to ...... Got the company in a lot of trouble.
Although the other routine is not on the surface, it seems more direct and strong, and many educational institutions and NGOs that have religious ties have directly chosen to cut off communication with the Artists Rights Mutual Aid Committee.
This is very embarrassing, isn't it? The NGO itself is not endorsed by the government, but relies on a sedan chair to carry people, so don't you want to cut off our roots if you are so faceless...... Of course, this action has stabilized the situation, but it has also aroused the dissatisfaction of many left-wing politicians.
It's just how to say it, when things come to this, Jin Zhongming is already a little anxious, tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall just to survive this wave, where can he take care of this?
However, the troublesome things did not end there, and one day in mid-April, he was subjected to another helpless and even extremely helpless thing - Sika actually made a 'joint art exhibition' with herself as the protagonist before her birthday!
You read that right, it's Zheng Xiuyan's joint art exhibition! She took out a lot of works that are said to be really her own hands, and then held a joint art exhibition with the works of more than a dozen artists!
In Krystal's opinion, this matter is simply a more terrifying thing than the nameless wedding of Jang Min-ah and Yoo Hyun-eun, and Wood went to this art exhibition to participate in the mistake, which is even bigger than the mistake made by attending that wedding!
However, what Zheng Ermao didn't know was that Jin Zhongming thought so at first, but this time he was really forced into a corner by Sika, and then he had to go.
In other words, solo art exhibitions in South Korea are actually a very common thing, and there are daily exhibitions on Sinsa-dong Boulevard, where organizers range from doctors, lawyers, retired senior civil servants, to entrepreneurs' wives, entrepreneurs' daughters, and entrepreneurs' sisters...... Anyway, as long as you have the money to rent a venue, invite guests, and afford free tickets, you can basically have a set of pancakes.
And specifically when it comes to the entertainment industry and artists, in fact, they are still the main players in this kind of thing.
Gu Hye-sun has done solo exhibitions, GD has even specialized in cross-border touring exhibitions, Jang Dong-kin also played when he was the most popular back then, and even said that MBC also made museums for "Dae Jang Geum" and "Infinite Challenge"!
Of course, the eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother, Jin Zhongming has done similar things recently, but it may seem a little more high-end. For example, the day before he got the news, probably in order to calm down some of the bad images he had recently, he held a large-scale Japan-South Korean Lu Xun Literature and Art Research Association in the name of Professor Emeritus of Seoul University and a large amount of cash red envelopes to appease conservatives in the Korean cultural circles...... Don't laugh, in Japan and South Korea, the so-called 'Lu Yi' is comparable to the existence of 'Red Studies', Li Cangdong is a good player in the Korean literary and art circles, and this time, Kim Jong-ming really relied on Li Cangdong's help to get this matter.
However, all these are not the reasons why Jin Zhongming participated in this solo art exhibition, the reason why he ran here was actually afraid that the art exhibition would go wild in his absence.
You know, it's okay to play the so-called art when you have money, but for art, many really rich people in South Korea have another regular operation. That is, in order to avoid taxes, or to allow heirs to inherit the family property smoothly, many chaebol families usually collect a large number of works of art with real value, and then form private museums. And this kind of museum is generally run by the trusted female dependents of the chaebol head. So for Sika, what kind of personal art exhibition is held at this time, there is a great possibility that it will bring bad associations to people.
Therefore, Kim Jong Ming came here with Krystal's contemptuous gaze, but in fact, it was just to tell everyone that this was Zheng Xiuyan's own, and it had nothing to do with him.
But I have to say that the sick tiger also has more strength than a kitten, so early this morning, Jin Zhongming and Sika both came to the scene with black faces, and the front hall of this exhibition hall on Boulevard was already very lively.
"Representative Kim Jong-myung, take the liberty of disturbing, I am the deputy editor-in-chief of the Korean fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar, I heard that there will be high-heeled shoes designed by Miss Jung so-yeon in this exhibition?"
"Thank you for coming. Kim Jong Ming could only deal with it at this time, he didn't know what this "Harper's Bazaar" was for, but looking at Sika's attitude, it seems that he should be regarded as the best in Korean fashion magazines, right?
"Representative Kim Jong Ming, I am the fashion brand Mag & amp; amp; amp; amp; amp; Logan, the chief designer of Logan, is looking forward to working with you......"
"There is a chance. Jin Zhongming still didn't understand anything, and Sika's face behind him changed slightly, and the meaning was obvious-shouldn't it be to cooperate with me?
"Representative Kim Jong-myung, I'm Lee ......, Deputy Director of Arts, Samsung Art Museum"
"Oh!" Jin Zhongming understood now, he came for this. "Why did Director Li come here?"
"Kim Jong Ming said on behalf of you, we Samsung Art Museum will buy a considerable share of art every year to collect, this is a well-known thing, and I am an art deputy director to come to an art exhibition, of course, to see if I can meet some good works, so as to buy, of course, if Miss Zheng Xiuyan wants to collect some art or establish a permanent museum, considering the friendship between the two families, we are also willing to transfer some collections appropriately to enrich the ......"
"Nope. Jin Zhongming came over this time to wait for this sentence, only to see him answer loudly, his tone was firm, and even the range of his movements was very large. "This art exhibition is just a child's nonsense, it has no artistic value, it is not worth collecting, and it has no intention of further penetrating the art market. ”
Because of the first half of the sentence, Sika glanced at this guy with dissatisfaction.
"I see. The deputy director of the art museum had a look on his face, as if he really understood. "In that case, I'll just stay and enjoy it purely ......"
"Then let's go and have a look. Seeing that the people around him understood their attitude, and it could be regarded as another big trouble, Jin Zhongming immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then grabbed the other party, preparing to walk around and leave.
However, the so-called art exhibition has not been going on for long, and Kim Jong-ming has just listened to some people in the art world explain how the heels of the high-heeled shoes designed by Zheng Xiuyan have a sense of fashion, and before they have time to listen to them talk about the art of perfume bottles, an inopportune phone call came.
"Xu Xian's phone. Kim Jong Ming pretended to be a little embarrassed and took out his mobile phone, and then explained to Sika, of course, the actual explanation was the group of so-called art celebrities behind him.
"What's going on in the busy?" Sika also looked embarrassed, but she seemed to be really embarrassed, and it seemed that she really attached great importance to this art exhibition.
"I don't know, I'll go out and pick it up. Jin Zhongming waved his hand, as if he was about to take this opportunity to slip away directly.
Sika watched the other party's back disappear, she roughly guessed the other party's intentions, but after hesitating for a while, she finally didn't chase them out...... Because that would be tantamount to embarrassing the other person in public.
"Youbothio. After walking out of the exhibition hall, Jin Zhongming immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but there was no reason why Xu Xian's phone should not be answered, in fact, it was just a coincidence, and he was really curious about what the other party was calling for at this time. "Xiaoxian...... Talk?"
"That...... oppa, have you watched the news?" Xu Xian on the other end of the phone seemed to be a little hesitant, a little flustered, and a little puzzled.
"What's the news?" asked Jin Zhongming disapprovingly. "The morning news and the newspapers are nothing serious, are you? Could it be that you mean the news that the Chosun Ilbo deliberately hung on the entertainment page questioning our cube?"
"It's not that, it's a real-time news that just came out. ”
"Oh, then I definitely don't know, I followed Mao Mao out early in the morning to participate in her solo art exhibition...... If you have anything to say, you can say it directly. ”
"That's right, there was a shipwreck. Xu Xian finally spread out the topic. "It is said that a cruise ship full of students capsized......"
"How many people died?!" I don't know what's going on, although the spring flowers are blooming in April, Jin Zhongming slammed his spirit.
"Don't worry. Xu Xian hurriedly comforted. "Although there was an emergency report from KBS, the news said that all the tourists and students on it had been rescued...... It should just be that the ship sank. ”
Jin Zhongming breathed a sigh of relief, but the heartbeat was still clearly audible: "You scared me to death...... And then what?"
"The main thing is the location of the accident. Xu Xian continued. "oppa, do you remember taking me to Jindo County to watch the set of "Ming Liang"?"
"Hey. I don't know what's going on, Jin Zhongming felt that his heartbeat began to accelerate inexplicably, something faint, without a trace, but it seemed to be right in front of him.
Have you been too busy and tired lately to get sick, or have you forgotten something big?
"On the way back, you had to go to the bathroom, so we parked on the side of the road, and you didn't come back for a long time after jumping off the seawall, and you almost scared me to death. Xu Xian continued. "Does OPPA remember?"
"Of course I do. I don't know what's going on, Kim Jong-ming's voice is low and terrifying. "I was sitting under the seawall and you were on top of it, and we talked for a long time. ”
"That's right. Xu Xian's tone also stiffened. "I remember when I asked you why you didn't go back, and you told me that you always thought something was going to happen in the sea in front of you...... Until today, I thought you had just drunk too much for a while and didn't have the strength to climb the embankment. But ......"
"Is that where the shipwreck is?" Kim Jong-ming felt that his brain could no longer function.
"Hmm. Listening to the other party's tone, Xu Xian also felt a little scared, in fact, she was a little flustered, so she made this call.
"What's the name of the boat that capsized?" Jin Zhongming's tone suddenly became urgent again.
"SEOL, Sewol. Xu Xian quickly looked back at the muted TV. “oppa?”
Jin Zhongming ignored Xu Xian, he quickly hung up the phone with an expressionless face, and then walked towards the art exhibition hall behind him. But I don't know what's going on, but this seemingly crisp and neat movement actually reveals a hint of incongruity...... When he turned around, he accidentally dropped the phone directly to the ground.
The assistant next to him wanted to help him pick it up, but Jin Zhongming waved his hand to stop the other party and bent down directly to pick it up...... And in the next second, something strange happened, Jin Zhongming bent over with his mobile phone, and he didn't move.
"Deputy?" After a few seconds, the assistant, who sensed that something was wrong, inevitably panicked.
"Help me to sit down, and the ground will do. Jin Zhongming commanded with difficulty.
The two assistants hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed each other's arms one by one, and then did as they were told. It is worth mentioning that one of the assistants inadvertently touched the back of his boss's hand but became more and more nervous, because the other party's hand was cold.
The assistants panicked, and the guests and fans who came to the art exhibition also sensed something was wrong when they passed by, and Sika ran out of the exhibition hall in a little panic accompanied by an assistant soon after.
However, at this time, Jin Zhongming sat on the ground with his forehead on his back, but he didn't want to pay any attention to the surrounding situation...... Because, just now, he suddenly remembered.
