Chapter 541 Kim Yuna's troubles

"OPPA, see you again."

"Well, see you again, I'll call when I have time."

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Jingyuan sent her home according to Kim Yuna's request.

The work of cleaning up the beach has been done all day, and when Lee Kyung-won and Kim Yuna are chatting while doing it, they have become very familiar. After all, no matter how famous Kim Yuna is, in the final analysis, she is also an underage girl, and she has been with the girls of girls' generation for so long, Li Jingyuan is the best at dealing with girls of this age, and under his deliberate closeness, it is easy to understand that the two of them can become so familiar.

After returning home, Li Jingyuan cleaned up the mess on his body, after all, he had dealt with the oil stains on the beach all day, no matter how careful he was, it still stuck a lot, and it was time to clean it up.

After taking a shower, the refreshed Li Jingyuan poured a cup of coffee, came to the room, turned on the computer, and began to check the relevant information of Kim Yuna.

It's not to check Kim Yuna's basic information, but to see what kind of trouble she's in. In such a long time together today, Lee Kyung-won and Kim Yuna talked a lot, not only answering some of Kim Yuna's curious questions about entertainment programs, but also learning about her recent situation.

Every time Kim Yuna talked about her agency, the depression and dissatisfaction on her face was not just a little bit, of course Li Jingyuan would not see this kind of expression, so he asked, although Kim Yuna did not say too much, but he still saw some conditions. Now to check the news, I just want to see what conflicts Kim Yuna has with her agency.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, Li Jingyuan is really a little angry. It turns out that Kim Yuna has indeed suffered from the unequal treatment of IMG, the agency she is currently working for.

When Kim Yuna first started competing, the agency was the world's largest figure skating company, IMG, figure skating is an individual sport, and Kim Yuna's conditions are very difficult without the sponsorship of the support company, and she is riddled with injuries, after signing with IMG, Kim Yuna's mother and Kim Yuna's only hope is that IMG can help them find sponsors to support, so that they can concentrate on training.

But the attitude of the agency IMG towards Kim Yuna is very strange, and they completely snubbed Kim Yuna, who became a player in their company, and received a lot of advertisements compared to Japanese players from the same company. Despite Kim Yuna's popularity in South Korea after winning the Grand Prix Finals and finishing third in the World Championships, IMG drove away many advertisers at ridiculously high prices, and even Kookmin Bank contacted IMG many times to sponsor Kim Yuna but because she couldn't get any reply from IMG, she left her contact information on Kim Yuna's personal blog. There is no commodity value, and it is perfunctory.

If it's just like this, it's not too much trouble, Kim Yuna just needs to leave this company, but at this time, something went wrong again.

When the angry Kim Yuna left IMG, IMG, who ignored Kim Yuna, suddenly changed his attitude and filed a lawsuit against her, threatening that leaving IMG, a world-class company, would not benefit her and would not be able to participate in the ice show.

On September 14, 2007, IMG's Hyundai Credit Card MOI Ice Show was held in South Korea, and IMG made Kim Yuna's participation in the ice show on the condition that she would cancel the lawsuit against her if she participated in the ice show, but a fire broke out the day before the show started, and the event was cancelled. At that time, many spectators from foreign countries protested with the players, but IMG and Hyundaika used the lawsuit as a weapon to let the 16-year-old Kim Yuna come out alone to apologize, and as a result, Kim Yuna appeared alone at the press conference to apologize, when an American ice fan saw this scene and angrily said that a group of adults imposed their fault on a little girl. Eventually, after all the foreign competitors left, the HyundaiCard superstar ice show became to some extent an ice show named after Kim Yuna herself. Performance: Kim Yuna took full responsibility for the performance of an unpaid apology performance.

This is not the end, even if Kim Yuna has done this, IMG still has not withdrawn the lawsuit against her, and at the end of December, it is time to officially hear this matter.

"Rub, what kind of bullshit brokerage company is this~" Seeing this, Li Jingyuan was already very angry, he really couldn't figure out why this company would treat Jin Yun'er like this. …,

A girl who worked so hard, endured injuries all over her body, and came up with such good results, if she was placed in any brokerage company, she should be a role model, and it was too late to hold it in her hands, but in IMG, Kim Yuna was treated unfairly like this, and Li Jingyuan already suspected that some people in this company had a problem with their brains.

Now that he had seen it, Li Jingyuan naturally couldn't sit still, and immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number in the United States.

"McCormack, is that you?"

The person who answered the phone was not an unrelated person, but the current head of IMG, the founder of the International Management Group, Mark Brown. McCormack's son, McCormac, Li Jingyuan's investment company once cooperated with IMG, so he also met McCormac, although he is not a good friend, but it can be regarded as a good talk.

"You're Lee? That wonder boy from the East? Although he was a little unsure, McCormack on the other side still knew Li Jingyuan's identity, because Li Jingyuan's call was transferred by the secretary, and the secretary had already inquired in detail before connecting with him.

"That's me."

"Why did you call me? I think our collaboration seems to be over, right? A lot of words: "McCormack is a little confused about the situation, the working capital borrowed from Li Jingyuan's company has been returned, and it stands to reason that there should be nothing for Li Jingyuan to call him directly."

"There's something about it, McCormack, I'm not going to talk nonsense, I just want to ask you about Kim Yuna."

"Kim Yuna? What's wrong with her? ”

was asked by McCormack, Li Jingyuan was a little speechless, and after a long time, it turned out that the guy on the other side didn't know what happened to Jin Yun'er now.

It's not surprising to say that IMG is a global mega company, the largest sports synthesy in the world today, with at least 11 major events held around the world. These events include the Olympic Games, the World Cup of Football, the four major open tournaments and tours of golf and tennis, and it is understandable that figure skating is a small part of IMG's business.

"I mean, man, don't you think it's a bit too much right now?" After talking in detail about Kim Yuna, Li Jingyuan sent the information he found on the Internet directly to McCormack's mailbox, and after letting him read it, he asked McCormack.

After reading the small news reports sent by Li Jingyuan, McCormack also felt that things were not so simple, for the sake of insurance, he did not immediately give a clear answer, but first said to Li Jingyuan: "That's it, Lee, I don't know the specific situation of this matter yet, give me two days, I'll investigate, and when the situation is clear, I'll call you again." ”

"Okay, that's it, McCormack, I'll wait for your call."

After hanging up the phone, Li Jingyuan was basically relieved, from the call between him and McCormack, he had already judged that the unfair treatment of Kim Yuna was not actually a decision made by IMG's senior management, it should be a decision made by the person in charge of the figure skating business privately, and then covered up with his superiors, otherwise, McCormack, the big boss, has no reason not to know such a thing.

Li Jingyuan here is not in a hurry, but McCormack on the other end of the phone is a little angry. It's not because of Kim Yuna's matter itself, but because of the guy Li Jingyuan's meddling.

It is not the first time that McCormack has been in contact with Koreans, and he knows that if something happens to these people, they are likely to ignore the gains and losses, and only consider the friendship of compatriots and form a group unconditionally, so it is not impossible for Li Jingyuan to suddenly take a direct action. Judging from the news that Li Jingyuan gave him, IMG is really unreasonable in this matter, and Li Jingyuan has a reason to make a move.

He has cooperated with Li Jingyuan's investment company, McCormack knows how much economic power Li Jingyuan has, although the two companies are not in the same field, and IMG itself is not small, but after all, it is still very unwise to set up such an enemy. If Li Jingyuan really mobilizes the resources in his hands and makes trouble for IMG, he may not be able to bankrupt IMG, and there will definitely be ** annoyance, at least a hostile takeover will be terrible. McCormack didn't want the company he had inherited from his father to collapse like that.

A video conference was held in a hurry, McCormack figured out the true situation of everything, and after a burst of thunder, he dialed Li Jingyuan's number again, and at this time, twelve hours had passed since the last call, and it was already the morning ......of the next day in South Korea.
