Chapter 224 Recent Developments
Such a result undoubtedly made Min Xianyi more grateful to Zheng Xiuheng. Although Zheng Xiuheng felt a little painful about raising this girl's family, he still decided to raise her as a punishment for his impulsiveness.
However, since the two of them had a relationship, Zheng Xiuheng didn't feel that he had suffered any loss, especially after he accepted Min Xianyi's first time, that kind of strange desire, or that kind of special attraction, no longer arose when facing her.
At this moment Zheng Xiuheng was completely certain that the feeling was the feeling of virginity or the first time, the thing that was transmitted through the combined position when they were the first time, the warm feeling in his chest. Zheng Xiuheng didn't know what it was, but with his wild imagination he could also associate it. Anyway, Zheng Xiuheng felt that it was not as simple as the word "virgin". On the contrary, it was more like the yin energy or Yuanyin written in novels. Zheng Xiuheng had no choice but to think so, and now the only clue was the tragic Bai Xiaoxiao. Unfortunately, Zheng Xiuheng did not have the ability to communicate with pets.
Time quickly came to the end of March, and there was another little one in Zheng Xiuheng's family. He finally lived with his dearest brother. Zheng Xiujing was extremely excited these days.
So much so that...
"What a tragic little creature! What did they feed you?" Zheng Xiuheng asked with amusement after taking a look at the little fox lying on its belly in the passenger seat.
"Ahh!" The little fox made a pitiful cry. Zheng Xiuheng felt it was very miserable and had an inexplicable sense of sadness.
After moving in, that girl Xiujing wanted to take charge of preparing dinner, so much so that... let's not talk about it.
Let’s not talk about dinner for now. HyunA has been slowly led astray. During her rest days, she either goes to school or rests at home. Since Zheng Xiuheng paid for dinner, she naturally wants to pay for breakfast too. As for lunch, of course everyone eats their own food.
However, the most pitiful person during this period was not Zheng Xiuheng, but Bai Xiaoxiao, who was treated as an experimental subject like the two girls.
Zheng Xiuheng said with some amusement: "Who told you to be so greedy? The more beautiful the food made by those two girls is, the more deadly it is. This is not the first time you have been fooled. You are so stupid!"
“Ahhh!”
Amid the calls of the little fox and Zheng Xiuheng's suspected conversation with the animal, the car drove to the downstairs of the credit company. Although Zheng Xiuheng did not come here every day, he still had to accept reports when there were breakthroughs in general business and some large orders.
…
Looking at the documents on the table, Zheng Xiuheng tapped the table lightly with his right index finger, his brows slightly furrowed, thinking seriously.
Li Zaiyuan, who was sitting opposite, thought for a moment and said, "Hong Shengcheng is indeed preparing to leave JYP to start his own business. During this period of time, I have been following him. In addition to staying in JYP, he has been going to look at real estate and meeting with some businessmen. He should be preparing the office building for the new company and choosing partners. As for the internal situation of JYP, we don't know much!"
"Is there any way to thwart Hong Seung-sung's development plan after he sells off his stocks?" Zheng Xiuheng's interest in Hong Seung-sung at this moment is completely greater than that of a trainee.
During this period, Zheng Xiuheng has collected a lot of information about the three giants of JYP, Park Jin-young, Hong Seung-sung, and Jung Wook. The three of them worked together to develop JYP today, and the division of labor among the three has always been very clear. Park Jin-young is responsible for production, training, and determining planning, and serves as the director of artists. As the president, Hong Seung-sung is responsible for the overall planning and normal operation of the company's various artist activities. As the vice president, Jung Wook is mainly responsible for market development and external cooperation.
But no matter how good the relationship is, there will be conflicts in careers. Of course, Zheng Xiuheng is not interested in understanding their conflicts. But it is true that Hong Shengcheng wants to leave, and the position of president has long been taken by Park Jinying. I got information from Min Xianyi that Hong Shengcheng's behavior of pulling people seems to be tacitly approved by the company. Zheng Xiuheng does not believe that just because Hong Shengcheng is an old servant, he can be allowed to take people away, even if they are some trainees who were eliminated from the group selection. After all, elimination is not necessarily a bad thing, it's just that someone is more suitable than you.
In this situation, the only thing Zheng Xiuheng could think of was that Hong Seung-sung could exchange some trainees for the sale of shares. Of course, this was just an additional condition. JYP supported him mainly because of the issue of share sale.
Because the company is not listed, many things are not disclosed. Zheng Xiuheng can only refer to JYP's sales analysis last year, which is about 23 billion. According to the current situation, it should be profitable, but Zheng Xiuheng does not know how much. Most of this number is due to Rain, whose contract with JYP just expired and he will not renew it.
According to JYP's situation, Zheng Xiuheng felt that the shares held by Hong Seung-sung were worth about 2 to 4 billion. After cashing out this money, it would be enough for him to start a new business.
"It seems there is no way. Even if we induce Hong Shengcheng to gamble, it is impossible to clean up his debt. For ordinary people, losing 100 million or 200 million is the limit. Even if we drag his wife to gamble, it is impossible to lose all his funds, unless he gets hot-headed and does something stupid!"
"For example?" Zheng Xiuheng was curious about what stupid things Li Jae-won was talking about.
Li Zaiyuan laughed and said, "For example, buying a house, or encountering a fraud gang!"
Zheng Xiuheng's forehead darkened, and he said speechlessly: "You also know that this is a hot-headed thing. What's the point? Do you have any ideas? If not, I will deduct your salary!"
Li Zaiyuan was stunned when he heard this, and then cried out: "Boss, are you going to deduct my salary for this?"
"Of course, an employee who can't share the boss's worries is not a good employee!" Zheng Xiuheng said seriously, and then ignored Li Jae-won who was speechless and thought about it seriously.
"Oh, by the way, I heard another piece of news!"
Li Jae-won seemed to remember something, and Zheng Xiuheng looked at him, waiting for what to say next.
"Although I don't know if it's accurate, the reason why Hong Seung-sung left seems to be because Park Jin-young didn't keep GOD and Rain. At the same time, the media has been reporting that JYP is going to open a branch in the United States. It seems that this is not the development direction that everyone agrees with, but it was proposed by Park Jin-young, who convinced the majority of shareholders. JYP... may want to enter the US market!"
After Li Jae-won finished speaking, Zheng Xiuheng looked at him with a very surprised expression, and the way the two of them stared at each other was very funny.
"Is Park Jin-young okay?" Zheng Xiuheng asked in surprise. If it was just to set up a branch in the United States, Zheng Xiuheng thought it was okay, but if it was to enter the American market, Zheng Xiuheng could only say that JYP was courting death. Although Park Jin-young was very good, Zheng Xiuheng did not think that his music style could be recognized by the European and American music circles for a long time. There might be some amazing works, but it would be impossible to open up the European and American markets without countless amazing works.
Even without talking about prejudice and regional reasons, there are very few JYP singers who can reach that level of strength. Even if they are packaged in other ways, they will ultimately have to win by their musical strength. At least Zheng Xiuheng doesn't think it is a good idea to prepare to enter the US market now.
It’s no wonder that Hong Seung-sung left. This is simply a mess. In addition, JYP let go of two money-making weapons. No matter what the reason, it can be seen that there are internal problems.
"Who knows, maybe the news is wrong, maybe they just set up the company to plan for the future, but this may also be because Zheng Zhixun's album sold hundreds of thousands in Europe and the United States last year!" Li Jae-won said uncertainly, but if combined with Hong Seung-sung's departure, it is possible that there is a problem with the business philosophy, and then JYP's entry into the United States is really possible.
"So Park Jin-young's self-confidence is inflated?" Zheng Xiuheng suddenly became interested.
Li Zaiyuan smiled and said, "I don't know, but if you calculate carefully, for last year's album, I guess most of the album sales came from Asians. If real Europeans and Americans bought 100,000 or 50,000 copies, it would be incredible!"
Zheng Xiuheng squinted his eyes and tapped the table with his right hand, thinking seriously about the problem in front of him. Now, compared to being a trainee, Zheng Xiuheng really wanted to have a partner like Hong Seung-sung. In this way, Zheng Xiuheng and the three giants could break away from the company operations they were completely unfamiliar with. Of course, Hong Seung-sung was not necessarily required, but if there was a chance to trick him now, Zheng Xiuheng would not mind.
"Forget it. No matter what happens to Park Jin-young, Hong Seung-sung can continue to send people to follow him. But there's no need to be too strict. It's enough to have a general understanding of his movements. Judging from his current situation, it will take some time for him to leave JYP. Now let's talk about ScarModel's situation. It seems that you all have been paying close attention to it during this period!" Although Zheng Xiuheng was very anxious, he could not get anything done in a hurry. Since there was no breakthrough, he could only let it go for the time being.
When Li Zaiyuan heard this question, he replied seriously, "DcarModel has been successfully followed up recently. This company is a partnership of two people. The most famous model in the company is Li Zhiyou, one of the three major car models. The others are not famous, so the company's value is not very high. According to estimates, including all the models, the actual value of the contract is about 2.5 to 3 billion. This company has not accepted capital injection for the time being. All shares are in the hands of the president and vice president. If it is a normal acquisition, if you want to have absolute control, it is estimated that about 1 billion will be enough."
"Vice President Han Jae-seok is our target. That guy already owed tens of millions in foreign debts due to gambling. I approached him personally and quickly established a good relationship with him. Some time ago, I asked Han's mother to find someone to set up a trap. That guy won a lot at first, but eventually lost nearly 100 million. He then borrowed 100 million from the company to make up for his losses, but in the end we still swallowed it all up. That guy was so greedy that he was willing to mortgage the company's shares and borrowed another 100 million. He got scared only after he lost everything!"
Zheng Xiuheng frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Are you sure he won't get suspicious and call the police? These two sums of money are not small amounts!"
