I am not an artist when I am reborn

Chapter 199 The Umbrella Man
Chapter 197 The Man Who Holds the Umbrella

"brat!"

In the magnificent villa, the potbellied director Zhu was furious, while the secretary shrank aside, trying to minimize his sense of existence, so as not to be found out by director Zhu and blame him.

"Who does he think he is?!" Director Zhu's face was full of anger, and he slapped the desk suddenly, "There is no good thing for this group of plutocrats! Samsung's dog!"

Director Zhu gasped heavily.

In the early morning, he received the news that Su Jinxing had "made a black hand" on Lin Yun'er, and Director Zhu almost didn't come up in one breath.

He has negotiated the price with a partner, and he can "sell" at a good price by bringing Lin Yun'er there tonight.

But this damn Su Jinxing wants to get involved in everything!
Xiba!

The more Director Zhu thought about it, the more angry he became. If this cooperation can be achieved, he will get too much, not to mention that he is not denying Lin Yuner resources.

This woman is also an idiot, destroying her own value just like that.

"Get out!" Director Zhu said coldly.

The secretary, who tried her best to hide her presence, ran over after hearing the words.

"Director nim!"

"Are you sure the news is true?" Director Zhu asked unwillingly.

"The news came from the administration department, but with the name of the hotel, the hotel records are easy to find out, so..."

So the news is [-]% true.

Director Zhu took a deep breath, holding back the anger in his chest.

"Director, are we going to take revenge?" The secretary looked at Director Zhu and asked cautiously.

"Are you an idiot?" Director Zhu looked at the secretary like an idiot. He didn't realize that this bastard was such an idiot before.

"Who do you think Su Jinxing is? Even Jin Yingmin and Li Xiuman dare not say that they can move Su Jinxing."

"Where Congressman Park..."

"The three stars behind him are decorations?" Director Zhu interrupted the secretary's nonsense.

With so much investment from Samsung, it is impossible for everyone to cover it, and Su Jinxing is the same, but if he uses the power of the councilors, it will be another matter.

Generals, kings to kings.

Once it involves congressmen, Samsung will never sit idly by.

The chaebol faction and the political faction have always been fighting and cooperating with each other. No one will control Su Jin's actions, but if the MPs behind him make moves, it will be another matter.

Besides, whether the congressman will talk to him about these crap things will not matter.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat this loss.

"Get out."

The secretary hurriedly bowed and left the study as if he had been pardoned, leaving Director Zhu with a headache to explain to his little friend.

……

SM company, Su Jinhang who finished the EXO strategy meeting returned to the office.

Su Jin walked in, and Min Xizhen followed.

"It's a little reckless of you to offend Director Zhu this time." Min Xizhen closed the office door behind her backhand, and said to Su Jinxing with a serious expression.

"What would you like to drink?" Su Jinxing was very relaxed, and asked Min Xizhen what he wanted to drink with a smile.

"Whatever." Seeing that Su Jinxing's relaxed state did not seem to be fake, Min Xizhen was a little puzzled, "Did you do it on purpose?"

"It's not intentional." Su Jinxing came over with a bottle of mineral water and put it in front of Min Xizhen, "You should also know the supporters behind us."

"Yes, Samsung." Min Xizhen nodded.

"The contradiction between the political faction and the chaebol faction is fundamental. When I took the initiative to accept Samsung's support, I was already labeled as a chaebol faction."

"When I obstruct Director Zhu, whether I intend it or not, they will automatically rise to a small confrontation between these two factions."

Min Xizhen was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly realized it.

"You mean, the person behind Director Zhu won't intervene?" Before Su Jinxing could speak, Min Xizhen went on to say, "That's right, if he intervenes, the Samsung behind us will also be involved." They will intervene, and a small incident will not cause such a big disturbance, after all, this kind of incident is not visible, and once it becomes a big incident, it will be them who will suffer."

When the situation is evenly matched, whoever stands on the moral high ground is the one who holds the initiative.

Su Jinxing was not surprised by Min Xizhen's reaction, she is not a fool, Min Xizhen's ability and political sense are very keen, otherwise she would not be able to sit in the position of SM's art director for so long.

"Actually, these are not important. This kind of thing is destined to be just a small matter." Su Jinxing said with a smile, "The most fundamental purpose of my intervention in this matter is to send some signals to the higher authorities."

"Signal?" Min Xizhen looked at Su Jinxing suspiciously.

"Nothing happened between me and Yun'er." Min Xizhen was stunned for a moment by Su Jinxing's words as if there was no silver 300 taels here, and then she came to her senses and looked at Su Jinxing in shock.

"you want……"

The matter of Lin Yun'er had a big impact on Director Zhu, but it didn't have much impact on Su Jinxing.

SM company does not allow high-level executives to force artists to do extravagant things, but if the artist is willing, then you can do whatever you like, as long as it doesn't delay the company's money, you can do whatever you want.

In fact, whether it is SM or other entertainment companies, they are all in favor of artists making deals with those powerful people. From the company's point of view, it is just that an artist can exchange resources for an artist's body. worth it.

It’s just that the difference between large companies and small and medium companies is that large companies will try their best to protect the artist’s right to choose independently, while small and medium companies have no right to speak, and for better and faster development, forcing artists to take shortcuts is also the industry normal.

A group of handsome men and beautiful women who show their charm everywhere on the stage, it's only normal for people to stare at them.

It is not because of how benevolent the big company is that the big company protects the artist's right to choose independently, but because the benefits that ordinary powerful people can bring are not of much value. Instead of making the artist feel resentful, it is better to show favor.

When the rich and powerful with enough energy appear, this kind of independent choice is actually just a dead letter.

This kind of thing is not only in the entertainment industry, but also in any circle. In this environment, the rich and powerful can do whatever they want.

What happened to Lin Yuner is just a microcosm, and it is also one of the difficulties to be faced after becoming an artist.

And Su Jinxing intervened in Lin Yuner's matter this time, just to send a signal that artists are not commodities, at least the artists under Su Jinxing's banner are not.

Maybe the people above will think that the price they gave is not enough, but even so, it is enough to increase the probability and threshold of this kind of thing happening a lot.

It is impossible to put an end to this kind of thing, and the root cause of these things is human desire in the final analysis.

The rich and powerful's lust (defense), the entertainer's desire to rise.

This kind of thing, unless Su Jinxing is a god, can't be eradicated.

He didn't even think about putting an end to it, he just wanted to protect those artists under him who were unwilling to make deals as long as he could do it without affecting himself.

Don't think that this kind of thing is only encountered by female artists. Male artists have been harassed a lot, and the harassment they face is even more outrageous.

Female artists are basically offered to be traded by the opposite sex, while male artists are almost evenly divided between men and women, which is the most outrageous.

Su Jinxing got some news from Uncle Yin. When Kris was imprisoned in Seoul, the powerful and powerful often went to "take care" of him. When he was in prison, such things happened endlessly.

Don't think that this kind of thing can only happen to female artists, it will only be more disgusting for male artists.

It is precisely because of this that Su Jinxing wants to change some circumstances even more, within his ability.

Min Xizhen also saw Su Jinxing's thoughts. After being shocked, she admired this young man who was a round behind her and still had a surplus.

While climbing up step by step, this rootless young man is also using his own power to change this filthy environment.

He has been in the rain, so he wants to hold an umbrella for those who are still in the rain.

Min Xizhen's resistance to changing from her original boss to Su Jinxing's subordinate quietly dissipated.

Many people are unwilling to be pioneers and changers, but when they meet such people, the brilliance of their humanity and the hymn of courage will always attract people to come closer.

"Does Taeyeon know?" Min Xizhen adjusted her thoughts and asked aloud.

"Tell her." Su Jinxing laughed, "If you don't tell her, you don't know how to torture me when she comes back."

A smile appeared on Min Xizhen's face.

"It seems that Taeyeon has a high position with you."

"Who made her the first one? Humans always have a special filter for the first one." Su Jinxing said with a smile.

She is Kim Taeyeon.

"You can toss about your private life yourself." Min Xizhen didn't say anything more. Young people like Su Jinxing created their own careers by themselves. It's normal for them to have a richer private life.

"Are you really going to send the proposal just now to the council?" Min Xizhen changed the topic to the business.

Min Xizhen's proposal seemed unreliable, and there had been no successful cases in this area before.

"No rush, wait until XO reaches the top." Su Jinxing said with a smile.

"I still don't quite agree with your proposal, it's a bit too aggressive."

"At this stage of the explosion of the overall environment, if you don't make progress, you will regress." Su Jinxing didn't plan to say anything to Min Xizhen. He could foresee the final glory of Kpop in the next two years, but that didn't mean Min Xizhen could too.

After all, they are still trapped in the circle of Kpop, unable to jump out of this circle and compare with Su Jinxing who is a reborn.

"Let's discuss it at that time." Min Xizhen also knew not to rush for a while, maybe Su Jinxing would give up by then.

Jingle Bell.

The phone on the desk rang.

Su Jinxing got up and walked over, and turned on the speakerphone.

Min Xizhen glanced at Su Jinxing.

This kind of act of trust has been used by her subordinates before. It is old-fashioned, but easy to use.

"Director, Jin Shao love is here."

Min Xizhen's eyes became strange.

"Let her in." Su Jinxing said.

"Inside."

click.

As soon as the words fell, Jin Shaoqing couldn't wait to push the door open and enter.

But when he saw Min Xizhen on the sofa, his body froze, and he bowed obediently to the two.

"Director Min, Minister Su."

"Hello." Min Xizhen nodded cheerfully to Jin Shaoqing, and then stood up.

"I've had a meeting all morning, and I should go to dinner too. Director Su, goodbye." Min Xizhen gave Su Jinxing a self-seeking and gloating look, and waved and said.

Su Jinxing's eyes twitched.

"Director Min, go slowly, don't send me off."

Min Xizhen happily left the office.

As soon as Min Xizhen left, Jin Shaoqing's tense body immediately relaxed.

"Director Min is here, I'm scared to death." Jin Shaoqing patted her chest and sat down.

"She often comes to my place to discuss things, what should I drink?"

"No... um..." Jin Shaoqing just wanted to say that she wasn't thirsty, but her eyes rolled when she said the words, "Drink what Senior Yun'er drank last night."

Su Jinxing couldn't stop laughing.

"She drank this last night." She reached out and patted the Houkuicha tea box on the tea table.

"Forget it." Jin Shaoqing immediately refused when she saw that it was tea.

"If you don't want to drink, I will." Su Jinxing said, and opened the tea box.

"Don't drink!" Jin Shaoqing reached out and pressed the tea box in dissatisfaction, staring at Su Jinxing angrily.

Su Jinxing was speechless, among these few girls, she was the only one who dared to do this.

Jin Yelin didn't dare to do this in front of him.

"Sit down first about what happened last night, and I'll tell you slowly."

"Hmph, you really know why I came here!" Jin Shaoqing let go of her hand, folded her arms around her chest and sat back.

"What happened last night..." Su Jinxing told Jin Shaoqing what happened to Lin Yuner. Sooner or later, they will come into contact with this kind of thing. Tell Jin Shaoqing in advance to avoid that when she meets her, she endures it herself in order not to cause trouble for him. Don't tell him.

"So it's like this!" Jin Shaoqing opened her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief.

"Otherwise, what do you think? If I really have something to do with Yun'er, this kind of news can spread so quickly?" Su Jinxing said with a smile.

Jin Shaoqing thought about it carefully, and it seemed that the same thing happened.

The news spread too fast, as if someone deliberately wanted to spread the news.

"Then senior Taeyeon and Irene know about it?"

"Taeyeon knew about it last night, Joohyun didn't know about it yet."

"Irene doesn't know~~" Jin Shaoqing suddenly became happy.

Nothing, just plain happy.

Su Jinxing looked at the silly Jin Shaoqing and smiled helplessly.

Among the few girls around him, Jin Shaoqing is the most careless, with emotions all on her face.

However, it is normal.

Jin Shaoqing is only old now, so she will learn it naturally in the future.

"I told Taeyeon, but I didn't tell you and Joohyun, aren't you angry?" Su Jinxing asked with a smile.

"Senior Taeyeon is so kind to you, and you like Senior Taeyeon so much, is it normal for you to tell her?" Jin Shaoqing looked at Su Jinxing suspiciously.

"it is good."

Su Jinxing nodded with a smile.

It seems that Jin Shaoqing is very clear about where Kim Taeyeon is with him.

"Let me tell you about Irene." Jin Shaoqing smiled and said to Su Jinxing.

Su Jinxing raised his eyebrows.

This girl has bad intentions, but...

"Okay."
