Chapter 321: Waiting to settle the score
In the past ten days in the United States, Lee Jae-min has spent almost all of his time in the monitoring room except for sleeping, and when he returned, Manhattan was gloomy and drizzling. When he walked out of Seoul Airport, the scorching sun was like a fire, and the scorching road surface was like a big steamer, which made him feel that this trip to the United States was even more unreal.
Park Shin-jeong drove the car from the parking lot to the side of the road, and Lee Jae-min pulled the car door, took off his baseball cap and threw it aside after getting in, and lay down in the seat with a slightly depressed expression.
Jianan, Anlan International, he thinks that it is impossible to have a little intersection with either side. Could it be a coincidence, Jianan wanted to acquire TTS on a whim, and Anlan International chose this time to snipe at Jianan, and it happened to be together?!
This takeover war, which affects and affects most of the world's economic markets, seems to be such a child's play. For Jianan Company, although Anlan International made the first move, the entire hasty acquisition of Jihua was more like a sudden and reckless action.
To outsiders, at least in Lee's eyes, the losses of the two sides could end up in a staggering billions of dollars, if not more, in an evenly matched struggle. Anlan International does not seem to react to this loss, Jianan is the main target of the two parties' struggle, although there is a big backer behind it, but it still has the most serious losses, and at the end of the melee, it was also fished in troubled waters by many casual speculators......
"In Minoppa, Jianan suffered such a big loss that it was impossible to do anything in a short period of time. As long as our group company is on the right track, the next time we encounter this kind of hostile takeover, there will definitely be a ...... Methods of self-preservation. Park Shenjing paused when she said this, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of Anlan International this time, TTS still doesn't know what it looks like, even if it barely resists Jianan's suppression, how long can it last? Especially after seeing the behemoth behind Jianan, she was deeply touched and puzzled. With such strength and backing, Jianan, weishenme will be eyeing the little TTS?!
Lee Jae-min waved his hand in the rearview mirror, then closed his eyes and rested on the back of his chair. Shopping malls have the rules of shopping malls, just like when he buys companies such as Jinya, the only way to avoid this kind of thing from happening again is to have the same strength.
For the industry, Lee Jae-min has not had much ambition, and many times he has developed under the guidance of the situation, just like the acquisition of LTF proposed by YUAN before. Suddenly, his mind was comparing the acquisitions of YUAN and Jianan. It can be vaguely concluded that Jianan's acquisition of TTS is absolutely malicious. As for YUAN, just like Li Zhiyuan on the hill in Han Kai Village, it is hazy and unclear.
Jianan and Anlan International. In other words, the two sides represented by them are evenly matched on the surface and leave the game in a draw. This can be seen in the statistics later. It can be seen that Jianan Company has suffered a big loss. They have evolved into a global entanglement, and the endgame left by zuihou not only allows TTS to quietly follow up and make great gains, but also creates a better opportunity for future development.
Before leaving Manhattan, Alia also threatened to have financial turmoil of this magnitude twice a year. In a few years, TTS will be able to catch up with Canaan.
Hearing Arya say this, Lee Jae-min, Park Shin-jeong, and Senberg all shook their heads with wry smiles, not to mention whether there was a company willing to come to such a lose-lose battle. Not to mention how many companies in the world can afford such a loss, even if it happens again, aren't you afraid that TTS will be piggybacked!
In any case, the acquisition is over, and Lee Jae-min can put this matter aside for the time being, because the development of the group company does not rely on a single company, but must develop in a balanced manner with multiple types of industries, so as to avoid more risks in the future.
At this time, Park Shenjing had a call coming in, she parked the car on the side of the road, answered the phone with a low chuckle, and saw Lee Jaemin squinting her eyes looking curiously, she turned her head and asked with a smile, "Your phone hasn't been turned on yet?" ”
Lee Jae-min leaned back in the chair, his forehead slammed against the window glass, and he took out his phone when he heard Park Shin-jung ask. After leaving the airport, I forgot to turn on my phone.
"Yun'er, they calculated the time of the plane, and they couldn't get through to your phone just now, so they called me!" Seeing Lee Jae-min looking at him puzzled, Park Shin-jeong smiled and said, "Xiao Xiujing and Xiao Sun shouted next to Yun'a, if you don't turn on your mobile phone, they will go to the yard to dismantle your newly ordered parasols and beach chairs." ”
Outside the car window, the scorching heat makes the eyes drift.
Lee Jae-min turned on his phone, and many text messages swarmed in. There are Yuna, Xiao Xiujing, and Taeyeon. Turning them open one by one, looking at these text messages, the corners of his lips rose slightly, and the fatigue of the past few days seemed to have eased a lot.
Yesterday I talked on the phone and learned that Lee Jae-min will be back today. Yuna and Jiang Zhenying, who they didn't know how to convince, got a full day off after two days. Xiao Xiujing received the news from Sunny and immediately canceled her plan to go shopping with Shirley and the others, and came to eat breakfast with her sister Jessica.
After breakfast, Kang Jin-young sent a car to take them to Lee Jae-min's house, and now they are all in the living room with Yuna's key.
Last year, Lee Jae-min's birthday, it happened that Girls' Generation had a very tight schedule, and Jessica and the others were all in a hurry, and even Yoona, as her younger sister, couldn't spare a little time to celebrate him.
Compared with Lee Jae-min's intimate care for everyone, Yuna and others were apologetic, although Zuihou Lee Jae-min went to Jeonju for something, but it did not prevent them from struggling with it, and later after Lee Jaemin's persuasion for a long time, they felt a little more at ease.
After that, Lee Jaemin's relationship with everyone became closer and closer, whenever someone celebrated a birthday, he would make arrangements with all his heart, time permitted, and personally prepare a sumptuous meal, for the birthday of the birthday star, but also for everyone. Therefore, as his birthday is approaching this year, Yuna and the others don't say much on the surface, but secretly they are secretly preparing for his birthday.
Seeing that the birthday is getting closer and closer, because we missed the birthday celebration last year, everyone is anxious to make up for it. In order to celebrate, the nine of them deliberately asked Jiang Zhenying in private to ask for a fake, and Yuna even made a plan, if Jiang Zhenying didn't give a fake, she might use the identity of the three of them as shareholders.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhenying happily gave the leave, and also canceled the announcement that morning.
On August 1st, Lee Jae-min was going to fly to the United States, which was also the main reason why Yuna complained at the time, for fear that she would miss it again, and then Lee Jae-min gave a guarantee, saying that she would be back in a few days, and she was in a slightly better mood.
However, the more you fear the unexpected, the more likely it will happen. On the 9th, it was the most intense day of the competition between Jianan and Anlan International, and TTS was not qualified to participate in it, but this was an opportunity for Lee Jaemin to observe and learn, and the final result of this competition was closely related to the fate of TTS.
So, Yuna and the others didn't say that they would celebrate Lee Jaemin's birthday, they called to celebrate, and they didn't call until after midnight. After many days of preparation, they missed their birthday again, which made them feel angry, and now no matter what they celebrated or not, they held their breath and waited for him to come home to settle the score.
As for Taeyeon, he knows the reason best, knowing that something happened to Lee Jae-min's company, but he can't celebrate his birthday, and in addition to being very regretful, he also accumulates small complaints. This year, he gave himself a birthday of a lifetime. And this time his birthday, although he can't celebrate it alone, I hope that when he celebrates his birthday, he can at least stay by his side, at least he can find an excuse to hold him a birthday cake with Yun'er, for this reason, he has already thought about what to say to Yun'er......
Flipping to zuihou, Lee Jae-min's finger stopped. zuihou is a text message sent by Xuanmei on Zhaoxi's mobile phone, she somehow learned that she will return to China today, and asked herself to go to JYP tomorrow evening on the 13th to participate in a small celebration reception for them before going to the United States.
During this time in the United States, there were two news in the Korean entertainment industry that caught Lee Jaemin's attention.
First, Park Jin-young publicly announced to the media that the next development of WonderGirls is to conquer the European and American music scenes, and she will soon leave for the United States. At the same time, JYP will launch the company's next main boy group, 2am, in the country.
The second is the episode of "The Birth of a Family" that Jessica participated in filming, after the first half of the broadcast, the response was mediocre, not to mention that compared with the average ratings and the highest ratings peak in the previous period, even the ratings of the previous episodes were far inferior.
When Zhang He was filming the show in PD, he had discovered Jessica's constant absence, and he wanted to rely on post-editing, hoping to attract the audience's attention with Jessica's girlhood identity and Jessica's personal topic, but obviously, this plan failed.
Jessica appeared in this situation as a special guest, and reluctantly said that in the past, if she replaced Xuanmei as a regular guest in this state, it would not be equivalent to adding an "invisible guest" to the show!
After Jang Hyuk got the ratings data on PD waiting for the show to be broadcast, he called Lee Jae-min's number, and Lee Jae-min was in the monitoring room at the time, and it was Park Shin-jung who answered the call. After all, before that, Lee Jae-min also vigorously lobbied him to make Jessica a regular guest. Although he made an agreement with S.M, he decided that Jessica was not suitable for the show, and proposed to replace other suitable members of Girls' Generation. It can be heard from inside and outside the words that his favorite candidate is Park Ye-jin, who has a more outstanding performance in this substitute class.
Later, Lee Jae-min found out this episode of "The Birth of a Family" video and found that Jessica's distraction in the show was much more serious than before. In the middle of the few editing and transition scenes that she appeared, with her rich experience in doing shows, Lee Jae-min can conclude that in these scenes with an active atmosphere, her interaction with Yoo Jae-seok, Lee Hyo-ri, Seon-mi and others is definitely cold. After watching the video a few more times, with her familiarity with the small details of her life, Lee Jaemin vaguely felt that in these more serious "mistakes", she seemed to be deliberately emptying for the sake of emptying......
Lee Jae-min felt that Jessica seemed to be deliberately empty, but he didn't believe that there was such a possibility, and decided to wait for a chance to talk to Jessica after returning to China.
Waiting for Lee Jae-min to call back and reply, he made a promise to guarantee the ratings of the next episode, and Jang Hyuk agreed to let Jessica try to participate in the filming as a fixed guest in the next episode, and stated that if the ratings in the next episode cannot meet the promised data, the candidates for the fixed guests will still have to be replaced.
Just thinking about this, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and Lee Jae-min looked down and saw that it was Yuna calling. (To be continued......)
