1st year Max Level Manager chapter 254
Eliminate risk 1
Gangnam's finest wine bar 'Evian'.
I made an appointment with Liu Xin, chief of staff, to meet alone at the place where I had previously met Chairman Zhang Wei.
In case of an emergency, I went to Evian by myself, having told the general manager Ji-young Kang of the meeting place.
squeaky.
First of all, I parked the car in the alley
I checked it from the beginning.
Around this time, I remembered that there was an incident related to Hwayeon Media.
[Everyday V10.1]
[Date: August 18, 2020]
-PM 01:00 Shanghai New Media Group (SNMG) Team Leader Wang Rong returns home and sees off. (Reported matter: Dispute over broadcasting rights and publishing rights with Hwayeon Media.)
Before the return, around this time.
There was a case where I became close with a team leader named Wang Rong, who was on a business trip to Korea from the Shanghai New Media Group.
Shanghai New Media Group, along with Hwayeon Media, is a giant that divided the entertainment industry in mainland China, so I paid special attention to the hospitality.
Fortunately, Team Leader Wang Rong was the same age as me, so we quickly became close friends in a short time.
Thanks to this, I got a piece of information from Team Leader Wang Rong at the reception on the last day before returning home.
Shanghai New Media Group and Hwayeon Mi
There is going to be a big fight between the Dear Group, so if you have a plan to collaborate with Hwayeon, they tell you to wait in line.
Since Wang Tomb was the son of a high-ranking official of the Chinese Communist Party, the credibility of the information was very high.
I immediately reported the information to Dongsoo Kim, and thanks to this, Dongsoo Kim was greatly recognized by the management as he heard that he was capable of taking advantage of the dispute between the two groups.
So, perhaps by now, the management of Hwayeon Media Group is in a lot of trouble with the Shanghai New Media Group.
You will be in one position.
However, I did not understand why Chairman Wei Zhang's chief of staff was in Korea.
Even if there is a full-fledged quarrel from mid-August, it will be normal if the omens already appear.
what. You will know when we meet."
After checking the information before returning, I drove back to Evian.
When I stop in front of Evian, strong men stop me.
They were the ones who guarded the entrance to Evian even when Chairman Zhang Wei arrived in the past.
As soon as they saw me, they reached out for my car keys.
"Go in. Secretary Ryu is waiting inside."
I asked the bodyguard who spoke poor Korean.
"Did Chairman Jang also come with you?"
The bodyguards did not open their mouths whether they had received any prior training.
After silently following the leading staff member, you will find the VIP room #2.
The room where I met Chairman Zhang Wei last time
It is a slightly smaller room.
"Come in."
As the staff opens the door, a man with a familiar face appears at the end of a long table.
you are
A man named Liu Xin was one of the four men who stood by the day he first met Chairman Zhang Wei.
He had sharp eyes and short sports hair, so I only thought he was a bodyguard.
"Everyone, go out and wait at the entrance."
Because I could barely speak Chinese, I could understand what Ryushin was saying.
As the bodyguards closed the door, Ryushin pointed to a seat.
"It's been a long time. How have you been?"
"What are those kkakdugi?"
"Kkakdugi . You seem to have misunderstood, but these are the staff just in case."
"But you speak Korean well."
"My mother was born in Seoul.
You are a Korean who grew up."
While talking, I sat down without losing my vigilance.
Ryushin chuckled and held out an empty whiskey glass.
"Have a drink."
The one in his hand is the 40-year-old Glenn Piddick, which Chairman Zhang Wei poured a bottle into.
If I answered yes, I would immediately say no, fearing that I would pour out all the alcohol again.
"I didn't come here to drink."
"Are you too vigilant?"
Ryushin shrugged and poured the whiskey into his empty glass.
And they offer me ice and a can of Coke.
"If you don't like alcohol, just say what you want to drink. The chef's work here is fine."
"I appreciate the hospitality, but I want to get to the point. Why did you tell me to come alone?"
Ryushin regained his appetite and drank the whiskey in front of him at once.
Ryushin, who wipes the whiskey off his lips, smiles.
"You have dealt with this very well. CEO Han Se-hwa turned his head quite a bit."
At that moment, I knew that Ryu Shin was behind everything that Se-hwa Han did.
"Are you sure you are all about this?"
"It's not my doctor, I just dealt with the president's special instructions."
Chairman Zhang Wei's hand was
I get it.
There is no way that global cosmetics company 'Blanc' would have moved only after hearing Han Se-hwa's words.
However, it is said that Liu Xin, the right-hander of Chairman Zhang Wei, took care of all of that.
"It was you
When I was about to spit out even a single swear word, Ryushin suddenly bowed his head.
"Sorry for being rude."
"What are you doing now?"
He let go of the day in embarrassment, and after tidying up his clothes, he continued.
"I have a message from the president."
Ryushin said with a smile on his face.
"Please become the Korean branch manager of our Hwayeon Media."
I beg your pardon?
Ryushin relaxed his posture and smiled.
"I asked you to take on the role of the Korean branch manager of Hwayeon Media, which will be established soon."
I didn't say anything out of absurdity, but Ryushin continued speaking.
"The size of the first investment is 20 billion won, and the second investment can be up to 50 billion won depending on the entertainers secured. Well, looking at the actors Jung currently has, I think the second investment will be easy."
I laughed involuntarily at the proposal that was different from the people who had wanted me so far.
But just thinking about the Hwayeon media in my memory, I don't know
The impression was frowned upon.
before return.
Wang Hyeon-seok, who used to be the branch manager of Hwayeon Media, is being investigated by the prosecution as he entertains people in the political and business circles.
And just before the second investigation, Governor Wang Hyeon-seok suddenly disappeared.
Since Chairman Zhang Wei was unaware of the company's corruption, the prosecution closed the case without charges.
At that time, the managers were drinking,
We used to talk about the fact that Wang Hyeon-seok, who knows a lot of secrets, must have been killed.
I have no intention of choosing an option with such a bright future.
But now was also a good opportunity to check the intentions of the other party.
"What was the purpose of making this offer? There would be no way I would appreciate what President Jang is doing."
"Damage of this magnitude is not damage to us. And our president is the young
You enjoy sponsoring. Besides, Team Leader Jung proudly proved his abilities through this incident."
Ryushin held out a black case with white blank paper and the Mont Blanc mark from his arms.
so Write it down."
"What do you mean?"
Ryushin smiled brightly.
"They say this in dramas, but I don't think this is it. Just write down the salary you want."
Ryu Shin, who held out a blank check that he had only heard of in words, had a triumphant expression.
It was so absurd that I looked into his eyes for a moment.
It wasn't a lie, seeing that there was no shaking at all.
blank check.
I had received it once before returning.
Whether you write billions or tens of billions, from a big distribution giant who tells you to use whatever you want as long as your guts allow it.
At the time, it was a shady proposal to continue supplying Top Entertainment's female entertainers.
In other words, this blank check is a constraint that I have to pay more than what I wrote down.
Because people don't do business by nature.
But I've lived a life where I've already sacrificed everything for money.
Just like he ran day and night for Kim Dong-soo before he returned.
And that kind of thing is no longer an emissary.
I returned the blank check placed on the table again to Ryushin.
"There are no numbers to fill in this blank, so take it again."
Ryushin smirked and emptied his glass.
"Is it because you think we will not be able to meet your desired salary?"
"Well, there is nothing like that. The Korean entertainment industry isn't that big, so what would you do with it?"
For a moment, Ryushin's eyes flashed.
"Then why don't we send Korean celebrities to China? Then you will get a satisfactory salary.
Could you?"
"Are you saying that you want to bypass the Han-Han-Ryeong?"
After the installation of THAAD in the United States, the Chinese government has banned the transmission of content produced in Korea or advertisements featuring Korean celebrities.
Even now, the restriction is still in place, and I was told that if I became the branch manager of Hwayeon Media, only me could lift the restriction.
"He's also clever. ah at once
It's poetry. made by a Chinese company
If it is the content and the celebrities belonging to it, we can give enough exceptions depending on the relationship with the party. I don't need to say any more about the relationship between our president and the party."
Ryushin took another sip of the whiskey on the table.
"And the chairman thinks that there is no one more talented than Team Leader Jeong in managing risks related to the entertainment industry."
At that moment, I could see exactly why Hwayeon Media took Han Se-hwa to the fore and attacked Eugene.
'Did you test me?'
If you think about it, when Hwayeon Media Group used their hands in the past, they were doing things that were incomparable to what happened this time.
Because he is a tycoon who has also joined hands with the Triad with the Communist Party behind him.
But as I listened to what he was talking about, the missing pieces of the puzzle were being put together.
Ryu Shin conducted this 'Crazy Incident' to test if I could play the role of Hwayeon Media's advance in Korea.
But that is Ryushin's position.
It just makes me feel worse.
It was because Eugene's career in the entertainment industry would have come to an end, and my position as a manager would have been shaken.
"I don't work with humans who play on human heads."
"Don't be too angry. You may be offended, but I am prepared to repay you more than that. This money is only the beginning, not the end."
"What if you still refuse?"
Ryushin sighed and took another drink.
"You look too expensive."
Ryushin, a one-shot filled with strong whiskey without even adding ice, stares intently at me.
Unlike before, his eyes are as if he is looking at prey.
then Bad things will happen. Just because Team Leader Jung rejected our offer."
When he rejects the offer, he comes out as a threat again.
either before or after the return.
Those in power always make the same choices.
Powerful people really hate rejection.
"Are you going to even touch my celebrities?"
Hahaha. also. I don't have to say anything, so it's very convenient."
I said, suppressing my boiling anger.
"Do you think I'm going to be quiet?"
"The president told me to get Team Leader Jeong in my hands without any means and methods. And it's what I'm good at not choosing the means."
Ryushin took off his mask and revealed his true self.
It was as if he was trying to show that he wanted to do it this way from the beginning.
But I know how to get Ryu Shin out of Korea.
When you let them know that a regressor has more power than those in power
it's liver
"Before that, let me ask you one thing."
"Anything."
"If that is Hwayeon's real power, they wouldn't be able to afford to be like this in Korea, would they? The establishment of a Korean branch at a time when the dispute with the Shanghai New Media Group intensifies...
Ryushin, who had a happy expression on his face, tilts his head.
"Shanghai New Media? What are you talking about?"
"You don't know? Are you really the chief of staff?"
If you're the president's chief of staff, you're the most powerful person in the group.
It was strange that such a high-ranking person came to Korea at a time when Hwayeon and Shanghai New Media were fighting in earnest.
This is indirect evidence that Leucine has been pushed out of the center of power or that information is being restricted by someone.
For a moment, Ryushin's face contorted.
If you're trying to shake me off with unfounded noise, you'll regret it badly later.
"Whether there is evidence or not. head office
Try contacting your acquaintances."
A spark flew in Ryushin's eyes as he wondered what kind of representative this person who was unaware of the important things at the headquarters was.
It is an expression that he did not know that he would be suspicious of his position.
The moment he saw Ryushin shake emotionally, he threw the last counter.
"And let me give you one piece of advice. Mr. Ryu Shin. Before you catch me, establish yourself first."
Ryushin stared at him as if he had no idea.
"What else are you going to say?
"Don't you know that the Maroon team leader in your company is aiming for your position? From what I heard, you were calling yourself a 'idiot' who left the company in a situation like this?"
Before the return, the name of the chief of staff that Chairman Zhang Wei carried with him was Chief Maroon, not Liu Shin in front of him.
As a business partner I often met, I was particularly fond of golf.
One day, when he became close with me, he recounted an anecdote, like a dance tale, of how alcohol turned into rice cakes, pushed his predecessor and robbed him of his position.
It is said that the idiot named Ryu Shin took the place of his care and took the place.
As Maroon shared what Maroon had said at the time, Ryushin's confident face began to contort.
"Shawn?"
After shouting out the Chinese word for 'What?', Ryu Xin's face began to heat up.
