The conversation that instantly entered the main topic was dizzying, as if the big drama kicked off before the foreshadowing was staged. Listening to the translator relay the conversation between the two, Chiba Ryuhei was naturally a little puzzled, the three people sitting here were not stupid, if he wanted to buy something, he would definitely not argue with another competitor in front of the seller.

Sure enough, Li Xiuman excused himself and said that he would not talk about work today, but Lin Weiran asked him for advice with a smile, and said that it was a private investment, because he believed in Li Xiuman, so he preferred S.M more than other Korean entertainment companies. Li Xiuman resigned again, but Lin Weiran chased after him, and said that he wanted to strengthen the cooperative relationship between S.M and Shinhan Media.

The three of them sat together, and the conversation could not be described as pleasant. It had only just begun, but the atmosphere had already become weird, and Chiba Ryuhei was a little unable to interject except for watching, but he was very curious because he observed Lin Weiran's sudden outburst of obsession on the side.

At present, S.M is not a good investment target, TVXQ needs to keep a low profile for a long time to escape the attention and suspicion of public opinion, and Super-Junior has to face the complicated trivialities brought about by Han Geng's departure. If you want to talk about girls' generation, you can only have a corner in South Korea, and it is not enough for S.M., which has an Asian market, to support their appetite.

"President, Chairman Lin is asking you."

Thinking about it, he wandered into the world, and was pulled back by the reminder of the translator next to him, and Qianye Ryuhei didn't know what Lu Daolin Weiran asked.

"Rumors that Ai Hui wants to sell S.M's shares. President Lin wanted to confirm that this was true. ”

Qianye Longping looked at Lin Weiran, only to find that the wind that had been hanging on his face for the past few days had disappeared. But there was a lot of anger in his eyes.

His old grudge with Li Xiuman is not over yet?

At the beginning of the battle between Shinhan and S.M, wasn't he Lin Weiran slightly better?

Although doubtful. But Chiba Ryuhei still nodded slightly, Ai Hui's investment in S.M must be recovered, and the more it is recovered, the better.

Lin Weiran smiled lightly when she heard this, and her eyes focused on Li Xiuman again, looking like she had fulfilled her long-cherished wish for many years.

When he said something, Li Xiuman quickly asked a question, and he answered immediately. Ryuhei Chiba leaned slightly to the side, hearing a conversation that made him almost smile.

Lin Weiran smiled and said that he was very interested in these shares, and Li Xiuman calmly asked how much you are going to buy. Lin Weiran replied directly, and the two of them were silent together, and the whole conversation seemed to have come to an end.

It seems that in the battle more than half a year ago, he Lin Weiran lost.

Chiba Ryuhei concluded this almost immediately, not only because of his trust in Li Xiuman's strength, but also because Li Xiuman was an old businessman who had been in business for almost his entire life.

Jiang is still old and spicy, because Lin Weiran is not lightly spicy, so he blindly wants to retaliate.

Qianye Longping shook his head slightly in his heart, thinking that this Lin Weiran was young and vigorous after all. If having this eleven percent of the shares can affect Li Xiuman's control over S.M, will TVXQ still be able to walk on thin ice like it is now when it leaves the three of them to return to Ai?

The invitation to ask the interpreter to convey his dinner was really refused, and Chiba Ryu said that there was still work. This is the end of the meeting. The three of them left separately, as if except for Chiba Ryuhei, the other two were unhappy.

Sandpiper and clam fight. The fisherman profits. Qianye Longping knows the way, and Li Xiuman knows the way. Lin Weiran naturally also knew that after hearing the news of Lin Weiran's departure to Japan from Yun'er, Li Xiuman rushed over almost immediately. It's just that when the other party has already been in contact with Chiba Ryuhei, there is very little he can do.

When he got on the elevator alone, Li Xiuman frowned, looking at Lin Weiran's trajectory all the way, he really looked like the kind of person who could break the kettle without saying a word. In the battle before TVXQ's disbandment, he did not hesitate to bet on the project that he had poured countless efforts into since he arrived in South Korea, and he seemed to have no regard for the possible consequences of such an action.

As long as Mr. Cho is a normal person, he will not allow his subordinates to cause such huge losses for their own selfish desires, and the shareholders of Shinhan will not let such an executive chairman who likes to take big risks go unpunished.

With the loss of these people's trust, what else does he Lin Weiran have?

When the elevator reached the downstairs, Li Xiuman walked into the lobby, he had heard of Chong Guan's anger and red face, but it was the first time he had seen Chong Guan's anger like Lin Weiran's recklessness, and even the anger of Chong Guan, who injured the enemy by 1,000 and damaged himself by 800.

Is it worth it for a woman at a critical time when a man's career is on the rise?

Worth.

Li Xiuman easily came up with the answer, and even for Lin Weiran, he easily came up with the answer.

Since it is not worth it, it means that Lin Weiran must hold something, for example, he is that Mr. Zhao.

Li Xiuman suddenly paused, stood in the middle of the lobby and suddenly realized that Lin Weiran's various risky actions were easily characterized as young and vigorous, but in fact, it was very likely that this was not the case.

If Lin Weiran is Mr. Zhao, then his almost arrogant style of acting can be explained, but where is he looking?

S.M is based in Asia, JYP is looking at the United States, and YG is deeply rooted in South Korea.

If you want to get the answer, you must do a lot of in-depth investigation, and the scope of this investigation even includes everyone around Lin Weiran, Han Weiyi and Huang Rencheng, these two people have recently become famous in the circle, Lin Weiran seems to be infamous, but he is faintly the backbone of these two people, they seem to be Lin Weiran's two hands in the Korean entertainment industry, one is thriving in the field of film and television, and the other is making a comeback in the field of advertising, not to mention many achievements in film and television, Hwang In-sung, who won the Korea Advertising Design Award again after his return, is a rare advertising genius, and Shinhan Advertising is faintly above the first project, although it is not Hwang In-sung himself who has done all this, but it definitely has a lot to do with him.

"Director Li?"

The voice of a strange man brought Li Xiuman back to his senses, and he heard the voice. His eyes immediately cleared.

The visitor introduced himself: "Hello, Director Li. I'm Seo Kyung-wook, Chairman Lim's assistant. I'm sorry to bother when we first met. ”

Look at the man who called himself Xu Jingxu and bowed deeply. Li Xiuman nodded lightly, he didn't know why, he was not surprised by Xu Jingxu's appearance, he could see the meticulous thoughts buried under Lin Weiran's almost arrogant style, so he knew that Lin Weiran was by no means a reckless person.

He asked directly, "Is there anything that President Lin is looking for me?" ”

Hearing Lin Weiran's name, Xu Jingxu immediately turned up.

"President Lin has a message for me to convey to you."

……

The next day.

Seoul, South Korea.

Kim Young-min, who was sitting in the conference room, looked at his watch, and it was difficult to maintain the calm just now. The oppressive atmosphere in the entire conference room was like substance, and the ministers and heads of rooms sat at one end of the long table for the meeting, facing the empty seats.

The cooperation between S.M and Shinhan IT is still under negotiation. Due to S.M's ambiguous attitude, Shinhan has been particularly passive. The negotiation process, which lasted for almost a month, seems to have come to an abrupt end today.

There was a knock on the door, everyone's eyes gathered, and when they saw the golden movie fan assistant who walked in, they shook their heads slightly, and everyone's faces were so stiff that they couldn't be stiff anymore.

Looking at Kim Young-min on the first seat, no one rushed to remind him that by now, the meeting had already begun for nearly an hour.

"President. Why don't I make another call? The assistant walked up behind Kim Young-min and whispered for instructions.

Jin Yingmin shook his head lightly and said, "No need, they don't plan to come." ”

Shinhan worked hard for almost a month of contract, but he gave up without even saying hello?

in the conference room. Everyone looked at each other, and Kim Yingmin did not deliberately lower his voice to tell the truth that everyone knew the truth.

"That's it for today." Kim Young-min announced in a whisper, a little tired in his voice.

Lin Weiran still knew the truth. It seems that Li Xiuman's mouth is full of uncertain prophets, and he will go to Japan first. Then stop the negotiations, and the next thing should be to release the news, right?

Kim Young-min prepared for the worst. In the afternoon of the same day, news broke in the stock market that Shinhan and S.M's large-scale cooperation plan was completely out of nowhere, and S.M wanted to stabilize the stock price and cover up the fact that it was seriously damaged.

A few hours after the news broke, S.M's stock price continued to decline.

The South Korean stock market did not fall to the limit, and Kim Young-min could only lament his luck when he thought that the short-selling restrictions derived from the economic crisis were still in place.

……

The declining stock caught the attention of Ryuhei Chiba, and the decline was shocking, and Katsuto Matsuura, the president of Ai Hui, called Ryuhei Chiba as soon as he received the news, asking about the sale of the shares, and even hinted that if the company lost too much money on the deal, Ryuhei Chiba would be held accountable by the board of directors alone.

The transaction needed to be accelerated, and Chiba Ryuhei was like an ant on a hot pot, giving up the slightest suspicion of Lin Weiran.

In the next few days, he contacted Lin Weiran and Li Xiuman respectively, and his tone was not in a hurry, but in fact he was anxious. To say that this equity transaction is not so easy, the legal provisions and tax regulations involved are no less than dozens, and the large transactions that can easily reach tens of billions also require both parties to be cautious and cautious.

The price of sitting on the ground should be gradual, everyone knows who has the lion's interests, of course, there is no need to put on that kind of smug face, Chiba Ryuhei did not meet the two in order to hide his anxiety, but Lin Weiran's ambiguous attitude on the phone made him even more anxious.

He knew that it was Shinhan who moved the stock price of S.M, and he also knew that it was Lin Weiran who added fuel to the fire, and if he continued to do so, he would inevitably lose interest in the shares of S.M in Ai Hui's hands.

He made an appointment with the two of them at the same time again, and looked forward to the anger in Lin Weiran's eyes when he saw Li Xiuman.

The next afternoon is the appointed time, Chiba Ryuhei rushed to the agreed place early to prepare carefully, the equity transaction must be as fast as possible, he has even found a lawyer, and even prepared a draft of equity transfer in advance.

Time's up.

The person who came in with the knock on the door was Li Xiuman.

Chiba Ryuhei got up to say hello, but heard an unexpected opening sentence.

"Vice President Chiba doesn't have to wait, Chairman Hayashi has already returned to South Korea earlier."

Li Xiuman's expression was calm, and there was no lack of confidence in his tone. Seeing that Chiba Ryuhei's face had changed, he was not in a hurry. He sat down on the floor at one end of the low table, picked up the sake that had been prepared on the table, and poured himself a glass. Then he said, "He's almost in Incheon now." ”

Chiba Ryuhei was dumbfounded, and Mu Ne was speechless.

……

It takes less than two hours to fly from Japan to South Korea, and although it crosses a sea, it is not too far away.

Getting off the flight that landed on time, Lin Weiran and Xu Jingxu went all the way out of the customs, and the car was already waiting at the airport gate, and the driver was Zheng Haobin, who had not been seen for a long time.

In the same car as Lin Weiran, Xu Jingxu sat in the co-pilot for the first time and drove the agent who was heard to be from S.M. beside him. On the first day of work in the company, he had a bruise on his face, and in the workplace, in this kind of circle, it is natural that the news spreads quickly, and on the first day of Zheng Haobin's work, Xu Jingxu heard that the company came to a staff from the underworld, and was handpicked by the elder to become the leader of an investigation team.

Lin Weiran was in the position on the right-hand side of the back seat, looked at the various materials prepared by Zheng Haobin, and said, "That's all for the women's group?" How about the boy group? ”

Zheng Haobin replied: "In terms of the boy group, only Best separated from JYP has the most potential, TVXQ, SJ, and 2PM have had accidents one after another, and SS501 doesn't seem to be going far." As for S.M's boy group, it lacks a breath of air in this generation, there is no way, the seniors have done everything they can, and these children have been under great pressure since they were selected as preparatory members for their debut. Judging from the current situation, the prosperity of the girl group will continue for a while. But if you want to be like Girls' Generation, company strength, combination strength, and luck are indispensable, and T-ara has this momentum. But the combination strength is a shortcoming. After all, Kara's words have been debuting for a long time, and it is difficult to match Girls' Generation in the Korean market. In addition, the company is not careful. As for other combinations, YG's 2NE1 is an example of this. ”

The flaws are not just about looks. It's more of an influence, if Girls' Generation comes out with a sexy photo, eighty percent will be swept away, and 2NE1 is likely to be unattended. Lin Weiran didn't know that looking at people should look at the inside, talent, and character, but for businessmen, looking at money is more important than looking at anything, because even if he has interiority, talent, and good character, he must pay his employees normal salaries, and bonuses or anything is not a little less.

Lin Weiran was silent for a moment and asked: "I probably know a little bit about T-ara's current level, that kitten dance or something from a year ago seems to be very popular, I remember that I seem to have asked the family to give them an invitation, has the show been broadcast?" ”

Zheng Haobin nodded and said: "Well, it was Park Ji-yeon and Han Eun-jing on the show, although the song is good, but after all, they are newcomers, and they will inevitably be timid and can't let go of the show, and there are also popular girl groups such as Girls' Generation and Kara who come out together, trembling is inevitable, after all, it takes half an hour to greet these seniors." ”

Hearing Park Ji-yeon's name, Lin Weiran naturally used her imagination, this girl's trembling appearance must be very interesting, and then chuckled.

Continuing to look down at the information prepared by Zheng Haobin, Lin Weiran's purpose of going to Japan this time has been completed, and the entire plan has finally taken this difficult first step. Virtual idols are regarded as a new advertising platform in both the advertising industry and the entertainment industry, although this platform is built on the Internet, but it can be closely related to reality, even if Shinhan Media is formed, virtual idols are still praised by too many people as Lin Weiran's most successful works, and at the same time are regarded as a money-absorbing weapon, but in Lin Weiran's eyes, virtual idols are still just a prototype, a part of his entire plan, and the basis of everything he sees.

Except for himself, no one knew what Lu Dao was looking at, just like Xu Jingxu didn't understand that this trip to Japan was obviously empty-handed, but Lin Weiran said that he had achieved all his goals.

S.M's stake Lin Weiran only needs three percent, and the sentence that Xu Jingxu conveyed to Li Xiuman on his behalf is also very simple.

"I'm a fisherman who doesn't have that much."

It turned out that in Lin Weiran's eyes, Li Xiuman and Chiba Longping were the competing sandpiper mussels, from the beginning to the present.

Listening to the dialogue between Zheng Haobin and Lin Weiran, I only know that Lu Dao is related to the current girl group, Shinhan Media's control in the entertainment industry is increasing day by day, but there is no traditional media business except for CeCi's acquisition plan, and some financial analysts once said when explaining the Shinhan stock market, it seems that Lin Weiran is not optimistic about Lin Weiran's ambition to involve traditional media.

After being quiet for almost the whole way, Xu Jingxu couldn't sit still anymore, and asked out loud: "President, according to your statement, S.M's shares will definitely rise in the next few years, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to invest a little more?" ”

Lin Weiran looked at him and asked with a chuckle, "How long have you wanted to know the reason for this?" ”

Xu Jingxu smiled and said, "It's been since I got on the plane." ”

Lin Weiran glanced at his watch, and muttered a sentence that you can bear, and then said: "Actually, if it weren't for Li Xiuman's peace of mind, I wouldn't have asked for this three percent of the equity." It's useless to hold 5% or 11% of Ai Hui in my hand, and I don't have the right to operate it, and the second is that if I hold a shareholders' meeting to ask for the rights, no one will understand the production of idol Shinhan. Therefore, there is no difference between holding these shares and not taking them, and if you simply make money, Shinhan itself is a better investment. In the end, in addition to the shares, he also promised to sign a contract with me. ”

Seo Kyung-wook asked, "Is that the one that Minister Park Jung-chang has been talking about again?" ”

Lin Weiran nodded and said softly: "After signing this contract, in the future, the entire S.M will be mine, and I don't want shares or anything." ”

Hearing this, Xu Jingxu blinked in surprise, and vaguely felt that Lin Weiran was playing a big and big game, as if he was playing a big, big game of chess. (To be continued.) )
