"Bastard, can anyone tell me what is going to happen like this?" Baek Chang-so, who was pale-faced, shouted in the office, and pointed at a standing young man with a report in his hand and shouted, "Didn't you repeatedly assure me that S.M doesn't have that much liquidity at all?" So you can tell me, what are these things? Why did they come up with so much money to raise the stock price in less than a day? For what? You tell me. ”

In the office, not only Baek Changsu and the man who was scolded so much that his head was buried in his chest, but also several others were also sitting quietly, no matter how Baek Changsu was mad, there was no trace of a joke on the faces of these people, but a lot more heaviness.

Baek Chang-so's young and handsome face was full of cruelty, threw the report on the man's face with one hand, and continued to lose his temper: "Speak! Isn't it usually a set of endless talk, why are you dumb now? ”

"Delegates!" The man raised his head, but when he saw Baek Chang-so's face that could eat people, he immediately lowered it again, and Ai Ai said: "We did find out, because S.M Company needs to carry out business in Europe and the United States, so a large amount of money has been transferred. It is also in talks with KeyEast, AM Entertainment, Tree-J and TCE to create a super-large international manager company, which also uses a lot of liquidity, so there is no way to have enough money to raise the stock price. ”

With a loud "pop", Baek Changsu slapped his desk, pointed to the financial statements thrown all over the ground, and howled with a deafening shout: "Then what are these?" Could it be that these billions of won that have entered the market have fallen from the sky? ”

The scolded man opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak. Even he couldn't figure out why S.M was able to mobilize such a large sum of money so quickly to save the market. This is not hundreds of thousands of won, billions of won, even if you look for a bank loan, it doesn't mean that there is one!

"Chang-so, calm down, what's the use of losing your temper now?" A middle-aged man waved the gray-faced young man out of the office, asked Baek Chang-so to sit back in the senior chair, and persuaded: "It's useless for us to say anything now, let's think about how to solve the problem." This speculation on S.M's shares has mobilized almost all of the company's liquidity, and it has also mortgaged the bank with its assets, and now it is time to think about how to settle this money, otherwise the company will be short of even basic operating funds. ”

"What else can be done now?" Baek Chang-so slumped in his chair with a decadent face, looking up at the chandelier on the top of the office, "We deliberately suppressed the shorting of S.M's stock, and all the money was invested in it." I thought that S.M didn't have the money to bail out the market, so we could take advantage of the dip again. Who knew that they suddenly mobilized such a large amount of money, and almost all of our previous investment was wasted. Now the money left in the company's accounts is stretched. ”

"Alas! I wouldn't have agreed with you to be so desperate. The middle-aged man sighed and said.

"Brother Zhenwu, I should listen to you, leave a line in everything, this time it is really a matter of eating a trench and growing wise." Baek Chang-so smiled bitterly.

The middle-aged man is Kim Jin-moo, the director of C-JeSEntertainment, and he is also the best and closest friend of Baek Chang-so. The two of them have worked hard together for many years to create the foundation of C-JeSEntertainment, so within the company, Kim Jin-moo is the only person who can move Baek Chang-so.

"In fact, we don't necessarily have no chance of turning defeat into victory." Kim Joo-won, the lawyer representing C-JeSEntertainment, said, "As long as we can get Kim Jae-jung and Park You-cheon and them to sign up with our company, then we can borrow money from the bank again to keep the company running, and we can even get compensation from S.M." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Baek Chang-so asked.

Kim Joo-won said: "It's very simple, immediately contact the families of Kim Jae-joong and Park Youtian, let them go to court, and formally accuse S.M of the illegal contract, bite the S.M company's brokerage contract as a slave contract, and let them make compensation, so that not only can the stock price of S.M be suppressed again, but also stand on the highest moral point to help Kim Jae-jung and them, which fans in the outside world will not say anything, but will sympathize with us and support us." The bank knew that we had signed three of TVXQ's contracts, and that we would definitely relax the conditions for our loans. ”

Jin Zhenwu nodded and said, "That's right, Lawyer Jin is not wrong at all. As long as we sign Kim Jae-jung, with their fame and influence in Asia, we can easily get financing and loans. ”

Baek Chang-so is not a fool, and immediately figured out the key point. Turning his head to Hong Kyung-joo, the head of the artist's public relations office, who had not spoken, he asked, "Are you confident that Kim Jae-joong and them will sign a contract with us?" Did their families make any excessive demands? ”

"Ugh! What the? Hong Jingzhou raised his head in a daze, and saw three people with six eyes staring at him, "What's the matter?" ”

Baek Chang-so rolled his eyes angrily, just when the company's life and death were at stake, as the head of the artist room, he was actually in a daze during the meeting, which was really enough. Seeing Hong Jingzhou's dazed face, Bai Changzhu had no choice but to repeat what he had just said.

After listening to Baek Chang-so's question, Hong Jingzhou shook his head and said: "I'm not worried about whether I can sign Kim Jae-joong now, but I'm worried that things are not as simple as we imagined." ”

"What do you think of?" Kim Jin-wu asked.

Hong Jingzhou picked up the financial statement thrown on the ground and analyzed: "Don't you think things are strange? We all investigated very well that S.M could not have sufficient funds to maintain the stock price, and we all studied together for a long time before we decided to start implementing the plan. But don't you think it's strange that S.M has spilled out billions of dollars? In the case of S.M. itself, is it necessary to prepare such a large amount of money in advance to deal with unexpected situations? This is simply not routine. ”

Jin Zhenwu lowered his head and thought for a while, and asked, "What do you mean?" With S.M. Lee so-man's ability, it shouldn't be too difficult, right? ”

Hong Jingzhou shook his head, nodded at the financial statement again, and said: "I believe that the previous analysis of this statement, S.M Company can come up with billions of won, but it is impossible to complete it in a short period of time, this is the time difference we want." When S.M was busy with TVXQ and couldn't react from the stock, we took advantage of the dip to complete the original plan. But now that S.M is not only coming up with such a large sum of money right away, but also fighting back against us at TVXQ and the stock market at the same time, don't you see the problem from this? ”

Baek Chang-so raised his eyebrows, stood up in shock, and said loudly: "You mean to say that there are external forces involved in this matter, and cooperate with S.M to fight back against us?" ”

Hong Jingzhou smiled bitterly: "Although I don't want to admit it, according to the development of things, it is very possible." Think about it again, why did our identity find out so quickly by the 'East Asia Daily' and expose it on the Internet. Not only are there photos to prove it, but even the lawyer we introduced to Kim Jae-jung's family has investigated it clearly. ”

"Who is it?" Baek Chang-so, Kim Jin-moo and Kim Joo-won said in unison.

Hong Jingzhou said bitterly: "If my estimate is correct, it should be Zixi, this is his counterattack against us using him." I just didn't expect him to be so resolute and move so fast. It seems that he will definitely have a follow-up plan, which is completely aimed at us. ”

"Is that him?" Baek Chang-so's brows were wrinkled into the word "Sichuan". Don't look at him once mixed in the Tao, all kinds of people have seen a lot. But Zixi's identity and background are too huge, and they are not something that a small person like him can weigh. used Zixi to attract attention at the beginning, but he just took advantage of the trend, but he didn't expect things to turn out like this. If it's really Zixi, swallowing their C-JeSEntertainment is not enough for people to stuff their teeth.

Jin Zhenwu was also annoyed: "If it is really Zixi's revenge, then we will be in big trouble." ”

Jin Zhouyuan said: "Don't scare yourself, it may not be Zixi." How can a big man like him look down on us? ”

Hong Jingzhou glanced at Jin Zhouyuan and said disdainfully: "It is precisely because he is used by us inconspicuous little people that he is angry." Do you still expect Zixi to smile generously and say to us, 'I won't mind', after being abused and slandered by so many people? I can't think of anyone else who would have the ability to give S.M such a large sum of money to enter the market in a short period of time and use Dong-A Ilbo, which is one of the three major newspapers in Korea. ”

Hearing Hong Jingzhou's analysis, everyone felt that this was very possible, but they were not the slightest bit happy to find the "real culprit", but were very worried. When they returned to South Korea to find Zixi, Baek Chang-so felt that this was a good opportunity. So he threw a lot of money, created public opinion, distorted the facts, attracted everyone's attention to Zixi, and also put huge pressure on S.M to facilitate C-JeSEntertainment. Now it seems that the original decision ignored that Zixi was not someone they could provoke at will, and now things are in trouble.

"What should we do?" Everyone looked at Baek Chang-so.

Baek Chang-so had already seen the reality clearly, and said to Hong Jingzhou: "It seems that I need to go and see Zixi in person, apologize to him in person, and hope that he can let us go." ”

Jin Zhouyuan interjected: "Do you want us to bring more people to strengthen our prestige?" How can you say that Zixi is just an artist, you have to pay attention to your image, isn't he afraid that the characters on the road will be entangled? Let's find more people to talk to him, it's best if we can talk to him, if he refuses to give up, we are not easy to provoke, the big deal is not to die. He is porcelain, we are cylinder tiles, and it must be his loss when it comes to hard work. ”

Baek Chang-so has been whitewashed and doesn't want to mix with those people before him anymore. But now Zixi is like a mountain pressing on his head, and with his current capital, he is not qualified to talk to Zixi on an equal footing. The only thing Baek Chang-so can do is the prestige accumulated on the previous mixed path.

Although Hong Jingzhou is dissatisfied with Jin Zhouyuan's use of such indiscriminate methods as a lawyer, the only opportunity to fight for equal talk to Zixi now is to use the people on the road before. Although he didn't mix in the aisle, he also knew that Baek Chang-su had been in the rivers and lakes since he was a teenager, and now that he was whitewashed and became a representative of an entertainment company, the people on the road would still give him some face. It would be a good idea to invite some powerful people to meet Zixi together, so he didn't speak.

Baek Chang-so hesitated and couldn't make up his mind, and his eyes moved to Kim Jin-moo, hoping for his advice and support.

Kim Jinwu also knew that he was in a dilemma, and since Baek Chang-so was whitewashed, he has already made up his mind not to associate with the people he used to have. The means of counterattack came too violently and too quickly, and there was no time to prepare for them, and things almost reached the point where there was no room for turning, and it was already impossible to think about it.

"Hey! Let's find out if it's really Zixi's doing. If it's really him, then I'll be responsible for asking a few bosses to help. ”

"Brother Xie Zhenwu!"
