"Isn't our company already out of M? How can there still be a representative of M?" Xu Ning immediately asked, "Could it be that our company is actually still under M's control?"

"Our company has indeed come out of M. Jin Yuli shook his finger, "But after all, most of the people in this are still coming out of it, and they are deeply affected by it." The president often said that there was an invisible force in the company, and he called this force the M faction. The power of this faction is huge, ranging from the company's top directors to the bottom staff. ”

"So, among the characters in this faction, this Ms. Xue is the representative?" asked Xu Ning.

"Yes, Ms. Xue was also a powerful character in M at that time, and she had a close relationship with many powerful figures in it, she ran away at that time, and also brought some of the backbone people in M to our CCM, and until now, they are still indispensable front-line cadres of the company. Jin Yuli said: "They all look forward to Ms. Xue. ”

"I see. Xu Ning nodded, "I didn't expect there to be such a thing, at that time, I thought that this Ms. Xue was not a simple person, and I didn't expect that she was still such an important character." ”

"When our company was just now, Ms. Xue, the president, and Minister Park could be said to be the three giants of the company. Jin Yuli continued: "However, the era of the Big 3 is not long, and Ms. Xue has many local political disagreements with the president, so she slowly doesn't ask much about the company's affairs, which is a big loss for our company." ”

"A big loss? According to what you said before, she has a very close relationship with M, and I am afraid that many times she has to speak from M's standpoint, which is not necessarily a good thing for our company. Isn't it more conducive to the company's development that she no longer directs the company's affairs now?" Xu Ning continued to ask.

"Are you deliberately pretending to be stupid with me?" or do you really not know?" Jin Yuli frowned, "Ms. Xue is the company, her biggest resource is her strength in M, unlike the president's strong enemies in M, Ms. Xue has a wide range of good connections, and her network is very developed, as long as she is willing to come forward, we can borrow a lot of M's strength." ”

"I don't know about this stubble, how can I say that I'm pretending to be stupid?" Xu Ning touched his head: "But this time, since Ms. Xue has officially intervened, won't we have the opportunity to borrow M power in the future?"

"Well, why do you keep asking about Ms. Xue?" Jin Yuli's face suddenly flashed a lewd smile, "Do you have a plan to be a little white face?" I heard that Ms. Xue's husband died early, and she has been alone for many years......

"I'll go ......" A large string of black lines appeared on Xu Ning's head: "Let's talk about this after I become an old white face......

At this time, the CCM headquarters, in the office of Minister Park of the Logistics Department.

"What kind of wind will blow you to me?" Minister Park looked at Kim Kwang-so, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "The last time you came to sit with me, it should have been more than half a year, oh, it should have been 1 year ago, right?"

"That old woman came to the company today. Kim Kwang-so didn't pay attention to Minister Park's words, but went straight to the point and said: "She said that she is interested now, and she has obtained some resources in M, and plans to dig deeper, develop it, and propose a new cooperative development plan." As he spoke, he put a folder on Minister Park's desk, "Take a good look, I don't know what the hell she's trying to do this time." ”

"She's actually interested in this?" Minister Park looked incredulous, picked up the folder and flipped through it somewhat casually, then began to read it carefully for a while, and then put the folder back on the table.

"Do you think she's developing? It's actually developing T-ara. "But I'm in favor of her approach, and I've always felt that it's going to be a very commercially valuable combination, and it's not ......much worse than Girls' Generation," Park said.

…… 1 week later, at 8 p.m., inside the T-Ara dormitory.

"We just finished returning not long ago, why do we want to come back again?" Li Juli, who was lying on the sofa, said: "This frequency is a bit high, my old arms and legs, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it up when the time comes." ”

"It's good if the frequency is high, but it's idle anyway, most of the newcomer teams are still worried about no activity, and they return once a year, maybe the fans will forget that such a team exists. Park So-yeon said.

"It's the end of March. Quan Baolan looked at the calendar on his phone, "Prepare for 1 month, return in May, this time period is not too good, the president chose this day ......"

"What's going on on this day?" Park Hyo-min also looked at the calendar on his phone, "Isn't it appropriate to do anything in May?"

"I've heard that WIRLS is coming back in mid-May. Quan Baolan said: "The last time we returned to the late stage, it happened to be the end of the girlhood, and the gap in the final results was ...... The president's face at that time was not ordinary ugly.,This time we returned and ran into wirls.,In case of bad performance again.,It is estimated that we will have to stuff two balls of cotton into our ears before entering the president's office in the future.,You also know the president's ability to scold people......"

"Uh......" Park Hyo-min also had a big head when he heard it: "yes, why did the president choose such a time period?"

"In fact, it doesn't matter which time period you choose, the key is ourselves. Han Enjing spoke: "If we were a girl, would we still care who we collided with?" I think one of the most important points of the president's choice of our return date is that he wants us to fight against these top opponents more, so that we can grow and develop better and faster......

"That's the same thing the president said in the afternoon, when are you going to stand on the president's side?"

"It's not that I'm on the president's side, I just think we shouldn't be like this, the return hasn't started yet, so I'm so unconfident, so what's the matter?" Han Enjing said: "As long as we work hard, I think the results will definitely not be bad." ”

"Okay, Leader, we know, we'll do it when the time comes. The maidens said.

And at the moment, inside Davichi's dormitory.

"I heard that T-Ara is coming back in May, and they have a lot of activities. Li Haili said to Jiang Minjing.

"Didn't you just come back not long ago?" Jiang Minjing has obviously been too leisurely in the past two days, and he doesn't know what is going on outside.

"I don't know what the specific reason is, but I also met Kim Jong Wook by chance in the company in the morning and listened to him. Li Haili said: "You haven't been to the company to practice for a few days, and Jin Zhongxu asked you in the morning, saying why I haven't seen you recently." ”

"Uh...... I practice in the dorm room as well. Jiang Minjing shrugged his shoulders, "Besides, I don't want to see Kim Jong Wook, as soon as I see him, I always unnaturally think of the image of those Sven scum in some movies." ”

"You kid, when did you become an appearance party again? Didn't you always say don't judge people by their appearance?" Li Haili said.

"I said to men, don't judge women by their appearance, but judge women by their appearance. Jiang Minjing stuck out his tongue: "This is a lady's privilege." ”

"You, I really don't know who will dare to ask you in the future. Li Haili smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I heard that our return was originally scheduled for June, but T-Ara will return in May, and it is estimated that our schedule will be postponed, and I don't know when it will be delayed, I don't want to wait until after September......"

The camera twists to Myeongdong, inside a bar frequented by Xu Ning.

"Waiter, a glass of vodka. Xu Ning, as usual, ordered a glass of vodka and leaned back to the bar.

"Your vodka, sir. Almost every night, he would come here to order a glass of vodka, just 1 glass, and he could drink slowly from about 8 o'clock to 12 o'clock, and then leave, during which he didn't see anyone talking to or anything like that, occasionally some ladies who were engaged in the special services industry or wanted to come to find some unexpected romance to "accost" him, and he would refuse them lukewarmly but without being rude......

"Huh?" Xu Ning just took a sip of wine, and saw that the waiter placed a small plate of satay beef in front of him, "Waiter, you are mistaken, I didn't order this." Xu Ning said and pushed the plate of beef back.

"This is my treat. A man in gold-rimmed glasses in a black suit walked out, "Do you remember me, this gentleman?"

"Of course, President Kim, I had a conversation with a senior here that night. Xu Ning immediately smiled, stood up straight and said, "But it's useless, President Jin, you are ......"

"Okay, this isn't the place to talk, how about we talk in the back?" said the gold-rimmed man and gesturing to a corner of the bar, where two men in security uniforms stood and a closed door behind them.

"It's an honor. Xu Ning looked over there, nodded, and followed the black-rimmed glasses man to the door with the glass of vodka in his hand, and the two security guards guarding the side opened the door very quickly.

"Please. As soon as the man with gold-rimmed glasses stretched out his hand, he let Xu Ning into the door.

"Please. Xu Ning was not polite, and naturally entered the house.

"Boss, guests bring. The man in gold-rimmed glasses followed, slammed the door shut, and said to one of the people sitting in the room.

"Hmm. The man nodded, "Sir, please take a seat." ”

This is a young man of the same age as Xu Ning, with a healthy complexion, a moderate figure, very handsome, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, staring at Xu Ning.

"Thank you. Xu Ning also smiled at the person, nodded, and sat on the sofa in the room with a wine glass.

"Let me introduce myself, I am the owner of this bar, surnamed Lee. The man said, and pointed to the gold-rimmed man sitting next to him, "This is my brother, who is currently running this bar for me, surnamed Jin, I don't know this gentleman's surname?"

"My surname is Xu, and my name is Xu Ning. Xu Ning took a sip of the wine in the glass, "Li Gongzi, President Jin, I don't know what to see?"

"Oh, Li Gongzi?" the man frowned, "It's been a long time since anyone called me that, Mr. Xu Ning, are you ......?"

"I'm not worth mentioning, I'm just a miscellaneous figure in CCM. Xu Ning said and put the cup on the coffee table.

"Mr. Xu Ning, you are too modest, if a miscellaneous person in the CCM company can know my identity, then the CCM company should have become the No. 1 entertainment company in South Korea a long time ago. The man said.

"Huh. Xu Ning touched his nose and did not speak.

"Even though we're only meeting for the first time tonight, I have a strange feeling about you, and I always feel like you're like me and old Kim. As he spoke, the man pointed to the man with glasses sitting next to him, "An old man I know, we served in the army together and retired together, but last year it was said that he bravely saved a film director, but he died in a car accident." ”

"That's a shame. Xu Ning touched his nose again: "This is really a sad story." ”

"He's very similar to you, sir. The man continued: "Whether it's your size, temperament, or whatever, you are very similar to him in every gesture, even the gesture of holding your glass......"

"Li Gongzi, you didn't come to me to say this, right?" Xu Ning directly interrupted him, "This is not your style, let's say, what's the matter? Is it because I have only consumed 1 glass of vodka a day in this during this time, so the consumption style of the 'miser' has been blacklisted by you?"

"Hehe, don't interrupt others, it's very rude. The man said, "These past few nights, both Lao Jin and I have noticed you, you only order 1 glass of vodka every day, and then drink it slowly there until 12 o'clock, right?"

"Not bad. Xu Ning nodded, "And then?"

"What are you observing?" said the man, "I noticed that your eyes were constantly scanning and searching for something while you were drinking, and that look almost made us think you were some secret agent on some secret mission." ”

"Is there such a down-and-out agent as me?" Xu Ning spread his hands, "Then the Korean agents are too down-and-out." ”

So we quickly overruled our previous judgment. The man said, "I am a very curious person, and although I know that curiosity kills cats, I think I can be considered a nine-tailed cat, so it is acceptable to be curious once in a while." I wish you could tell me what your real purpose is in the bar?"

"What real purpose can I have, I didn't come to the bar to relax. Xu Ning looked indifferent, "The wine here, the food, the environment, the atmosphere, and many beautiful women, isn't it a good place for me to relax and have fun?"

"This can only deceive a three-year-old child, and I want to hear the truth. ”

"To tell the truth, it's often ridiculous and unbelievable. Xu Ning touched his nose and said, "Most people can't listen." ”

"I think I'm one of those minority. The man said, "I'd love to hear it now." ”

"The boss is not an ordinary person, you just say it. The man with glasses said, "I want to hear it too." ”

"I hope to get your help from Gongzi Li. Xu Ning's eyes suddenly sharpened, his body straightened, and he swept away the previous image of a lazy scoundrel: "All-round help." ”

"Huh?" the man and the man with glasses looked at each other, "You need help?"

"Yes, I need help, strong, all-round help. Xu Ning nodded, "I think, among the people I know, only you, Li Gongzi, have the strength to provide me with such help." ”

"So you've come to the bar for so many days in a row, and you've been posturing over there, just to get my attention?" said the man, "to get you to ask me for help?"

"Yes. Xu Ning nodded, "I only have this way." ”

"Why do you think the boss will help you?" asked the man with glasses.

"My gut feeling. Xu Ning said: "I trust my instincts. ”

"I think you've drunk too much, and your intuition is easy to be misled by alcohol. The man with glasses said with a sneer.

"You might as well tell me what you mean by powerful and all-round help?" to the surprise of the man with glasses, the man smiled after a moment of thought.

"Maybe Li Gongzi is going to tell the cooks in the bar to prepare a table of supper, which will be a very long conversation. Xu Ning said with a smile on his face again.

……

The next day, in the office of Xu Ning, at the CCM headquarters. "Miss Park Suzhen, I haven't seen you for many days, looking at your smug face, it seems that you should have received a notice that your company is going to make your debut, right?" Xu Ning said as he poured a glass of water and handed it to Park Suzhen, who was sitting across from him.

"Yes, I received a notice last night, and the company is already planning to let me, as well as our company's Woo Ji Hae, Bang Min Ah, Hwang Ji Sun, and Lee Ji In, form a team to accumulate experience and popularity by doing some outdoor performances on the streets of Hongdae and Myeongdong in the near future, and if the response is good, we will make our official debut. Park Suzhen took the glass of water and said
