Namdaemun CJ Building, Jung-gu, Seoul

"Buzz"

In the dark office, Li Shanhao, who was leaning on the office chair, answered the phone with a light watch.

The call lasted about two minutes, and Gu Guangbiao relayed Lee Sun-ho's words and deeds in the bar to Lee Sun-ho.

"Seon-ho, your brother is not a threat at all."

Li Shanhao was silent for a moment, and replied slowly: "Men have weaknesses, nothing more than money, women and power, it turns out that they like to play with women, heh"

He didn't tell Lee Jae-hyun about it, but called Son Kyung-sik.

But Son Kyung-sik doesn't think that this can rule out the threat of Lee Sung-ho, and anyone can act on the spot, and without the media breaking the news, his frequent change of women around him can't break his image, nor can he lose the hearts of the people.

Villa No. 13, Seongbuk-dong, study.

Lee Jae-hyun pushed the frame of his glasses and looked at the young woman standing opposite the desk with a soft gaze: "Yaxi, it's been almost five years since you graduated from college and joined the company, right?" ”

"Yes, President Nim"

"You were the first student to receive a CJ Special Scholarship?"

"Yes, President Nim"

"Don't be nervous, I called you over tonight just to give you something"

As he spoke, Lee Jae-hyun took out a delicate gift box from a drawer.

Open it and put it on your desk: "You should have your own car, too." ”

Lee Jae-hyun looked at Kim Ah-hee with a smile on his face.

She is the eyeliner that Lee Jae-hyun planted next to Lee Sung-ho, and in addition to surface work over the years, Kim Ah-hee will also report Lee Sung-ho's every move to Lee Jae-hyun at a fixed time.

Today is the first day that he accompanied Lee Sung-ho to take office as the president of TVN, and Kim Ah-hee was directly called to the villa.

Without any concealment, he reported Lee Sung-ho's all-day itinerary to Lee Jae-hyun one by one.

Facing the car keys on the table, Jin Yaxi did not hesitate at all, reached out to take the gift box, bent down and nodded: "Thank you, President Nim." ”

Lee Jae-hyun nodded lightly: "In the future, you have to continue to take good care of Cheng Hao, and report anything to me as soon as possible, remember?" ”

"Got it, President Nim"

"Let's get out"

Itaewon, grandma's sobering soup shop

Eating hot beef soup and rice, Li Chenghao was also thinking about the same question.

If you want Lee Jae-hyun and Lee Sun-ho to be completely at ease with themselves, it is absolutely not enough to just mix with Choi Sung-geun and other gentlemen.

Now in charge of TVN, once you make achievements and show ability, you must also expose the criticizing side of your life.

Time is equally tight for Li Chenghao.

He will not accept peachy news with Internet celebrities, flight attendants, weather forecast anchors and other types of women, these are what Li Shanhao likes, and in his opinion, it is too cheap.

"Auntie, settle the bill."

A familiar voice came from the next table.

Turned

Li Chenghao saw the back of a blonde man.

But what really caught his attention was the woman sitting across from the blonde man.

Solar, the captain of the girl idol group MAMAMOO.

"The voice is good, the popularity of the group is not bad, and it belongs to one of the representatives of the powerful faction, but it is not topical......"

Solar, who felt Lee Sung-ho's gaze, whispered, "Ki-beam, the guy sitting behind you has been looking at me since just now. ”

Key waved his hand secretly: "Rong Xian, don't look at it." ”

"Why?"

"Don't you know who he is?"

Solar really doesn't know who the other party is.

Irene, who was sitting next to her, looked at Key with the same curiosity.

"He is Lee Sung-ho, the head of the music division of CJE&M, and today he just became the president of TVN Broadcasting."

Irene's eyes widened as she looked at Key, "Ki-fan, are you telling the truth?" ”

"Oh, how can this kind of thing be nonsense"

Solar suddenly realized: "So, that's why you didn't let me stop him from smoking?" ”

Nodding his head again and again

All Key wants now is to get out of here right away.

In fact, he and Li Chenghao met as early as 2015.

At that time, Lee Sung-ho was still the head of the music division, and there was a music program "M-COUNT DOWN" in the program he managed, which he and Lee Jung-shin co-hosted.

The premiere recording ends, backstage lounge.

Key and Lee Jung-shin had a good chat, discussing finding a place to have a drink for a while.

Unexpectedly, Li Chenghao suddenly came.

From the moment he entered the lounge, everyone present felt as if they were in an ice cave and felt a cold cold.

He still remembers what Li Chenghao said: "You are not newcomers, don't you feel ashamed to laugh when you make low-level mistakes, remember, the mistake can only be this time, and there will be a second time to leave directly." ”

Afterwards

The people in the lounge watched the recording of today's program repeatedly, and did not find any mistakes at all.

Or did the agent find out the news from the PD, and it turned out that they said the wrong names of the members when they introduced the rookie group in an interview.

"Let's go."

After settling the account in a hurry, Key pushed the two of them out without looking back.

Unexpectedly, Irene and Solar, who walked to the door, turned back at Li Chenghao at the same time.

After a brief intertwining of eyes, Solar patted his chest when he went out: "I looked at him just now, it's terrible"

And Irene on the side closed her red lips tightly, she also looked at Li Chenghao just now, and she was sure that it was a real eye collision, but what she felt was different from Solar, that person, looking at her eyes seemed to be full of doubts.

Li Chenghao in the store withdrew his gaze.

Muttered: "The woman in the black cap again?" Who, the guy with Solar, and that blonde man, SHINee's Key? ”

buzzing

The phone rings

Seeing the caller ID, Li Chenghao did not connect immediately.

After about half a minute, Li Chenghao slowly pressed the call button.

"I'm sorry President Nim for bothering you so late."

"Say"

"I thought about what President Nim said at dinner and thought it made sense."

"So"

"Does President Nim have time tomorrow? I took IU to meet with President Nim and talked about signing a contract by the way. ”

The person who called was none other than Park Yong-ho, whom he met for dinner.

Li Chenghao guessed that the other party would not refuse the conditions he proposed, but he didn't expect it to be sorted out so quickly.

After eating the sobering soup, Lee Sung-ho returned to his apartment in Itaewon.

Leaning back on the couch, IU's name echoes in his mind repeatedly.

Li Chenghao took out his mobile phone and searched for IU's relevant information.

"In March 2015, he officially dated singer Zhang Jihe and broke up in January 2017."

"National sister, popular SOLO singer, spokesperson of HT Group Shinro Shochu, actor, and has also won the Prime Minister's commendation."

Li Chenghao just glanced at the other information and skipped it.

Regarding the actors, Lee Sung-ho paid special attention.

A first-line singer, who has made his relationship public, and his acting skills are online.

No matter how you look at it, Li Chenghao thinks IU is a very suitable person.

Meet tomorrow, and after finalizing the matter of signing with Z Entertainment, talk to her alone.

What kind of conditions she won't refuse, this is really hard to grasp.
