In the dark office, Li Shanhao, who was leaning on his office chair, answered Gu Guangming's phone.
The call lasted about two minutes, and Goo Kwang-pyo relayed Lee Sung-ho's words and deeds in the bar to Lee Sun-ho.
"Shanhao, that brother of yours is not a threat at all."
Li Shanhao was silent for a moment and replied slowly: "Men all have weaknesses, nothing more than money, women and power. It turns out that they like to play with women, ha."
He did not tell Lee Jae-hyun about this, but called Son Kyung-sik.
But Son Kyung-sik does not think that this can eliminate the threat of Lee Sung-ho. Anyone can act out when the situation arises. Even if the media does not reveal that he frequently changes the women around him, it will not be able to destroy his image or make him lose the support of the people.
Villa No. 13, Seongbuk-dong, study room.
Li Zaixian pushed up the frames of his glasses and looked at the young woman standing across the desk with soft eyes: "Ya Xi, it's been almost five years since you graduated from college and entered the company, right?"
"Yes, President Nim"
"Were you the first student to receive the CJ Special Scholarship that year?"
"Yes, President Nim"
"Don't be nervous, I'm just calling you over tonight to give you something."
With that said, Li Zaixian took out an exquisite gift box from the drawer.
Open it and put it on the desk: "You should also have a car of your own."
Lee Jae-hyun looked at Kim Ya-hee with a smile.
She was Lee Jae-hyun's spy next to Lee Seong-ho. Over the years, in addition to surface work, Kim Ya-hee would also summarize and report Lee Seong-ho's every move to Lee Jae-hyun at a fixed time.
Today is the first day that Lee Seong-ho took up his post as president of TVN Broadcasting Bureau. Kim Ya-hee was directly called to the villa.
Without hiding anything, he reported Li Chenghao’s whole day’s schedule to Li Zaixian one by one.
Facing the car keys on the table, Jin Yaxi didn't hesitate at all. She reached for the gift box, bent down and nodded: "Thank you, President Nim."
Li Zaixian nodded lightly: "You must continue to take good care of Cheng Hao from now on, and report to me as soon as you encounter anything. Do you remember?"
"I understand, President Nim"
"Get out"
Itaewon, Grandma Soup Shop
While eating hot beef soup and rice, Li Chenghao was also thinking about the same question.
In order for Lee Jae-hyun and Lee Sun-ho to feel completely at ease with themselves, just hanging out with dudes like Choi Sung-geun is definitely not enough.
Now that you are in charge of TVN, once you have made achievements and demonstrated your abilities, you must also expose the aspects of your life that can be criticized.
Time is equally urgent for Li Chenghao.
He would not accept sexual news with Internet celebrities, flight attendants, weather forecast anchors and other types of women. These are all Li Shanhao likes, and in his opinion, they are too cheap.
"Aunt, check out."
A familiar voice came from the next table.
Turn around
Li Chenghao saw the back of a blond man.
But what really caught his attention was the woman sitting opposite the blond man.
Female idol group r.
"The voice is good, and the group's popularity is not bad. They are one of the representatives of the powerful group, but they are not topical enough..."
r whispered: "Kibum, the person sitting behind you has been looking at me just now."
Key waved his hands secretly: "Rong Xian, don't look."
"Why?"
"Don't you know who he is?"
r 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 Li Chenghao, the director of cje&m's music business department. He just became the president of tvn broadcasting bureau today."
Irene looked at Key with wide eyes: "Kibum, are you telling the truth?"
"Oh, how can you talk nonsense like this?"
r suddenly realized: "So, that's why you didn't let me stop him from smoking just now?"
Nodding repeatedly
What Key wants to do now is to leave here immediately.
In fact, he and Li Chenghao met as early as 2015.
At that time, Li Chenghao was still the minister of music industry. Among the programs he managed, there was a music program "m-count down" that he and Li Zhengxin co-hosted.
The recording of the premiere is over, backstage in the lounge.
Key and Li Zhengxin were chatting happily and discussed finding a place to have a drink later.
Unexpectedly, Li Chenghao came suddenly.
From the moment he entered the lounge, everyone present felt as if they were in an ice cave, feeling a chill.
He still remembered what Li Chenghao said: "You are not new. Don't you feel ashamed if you make a low-level mistake and still feel like joking? Remember, the mistake can only be made this time. If you make a second time, you will leave immediately."
afterwards
The people in the lounge watched today's recorded program over and over again and found no mistakes at all.
The manager got the information from PD, and it turned out that they gave the wrong member's name when they were interviewing and introducing the new group.
"Let's go quickly."
After hurriedly paying the bill, Key pushed the two of them out without looking back.
Unexpectedly, R turned around and looked at Li Chenghao at the same time.
Their eyes intertwined briefly, and R patted his chest: "I looked at him and me just now, it was so scary."
Irene on the side had her red lips tightly closed. She had also looked at Li Chenghao just now, and she was very sure that it was a real eye contact, but it was different. That person seemed to be looking at her with doubts.
Li Chenghao in the store withdrew his gaze.
He muttered: "Is it the woman wearing the black peaked cap again? Who is it, the person who is together, and the blond man, Shinee's key?"
buzzing
Cell phone rings
Seeing the caller ID, Li Chenghao did not answer the call immediately.
After about half a minute, Li Chenghao slowly pressed the call button.
"I'm sorry, President Nim, for bothering you so late."
"explain"
"I thought carefully about what President Nim said during dinner, and I think it makes sense."
"so"
"Excuse me, is President Nim free tomorrow? I'll take IU to meet President Nim and talk about the signing."
The person who called was none other than Park Yong-ho whom we met for dinner.
Li Chenghao guessed that the other party would not reject the conditions he proposed, but he did not expect that the arrangement would be sorted out so quickly.
After eating the hangover soup, Lee Sung-ho returned to his apartment in Itaewon.
Leaning on the sofa, iu's name echoed in my mind repeatedly.
Li Chenghao took out his mobile phone and searched for information about iu.
"I officially dated singer Jang Kiha in March 2015 and broke up in January 2017."
"A national sister, a popular solo singer, the spokesperson of Jinro Soju of HT Group, an actor, and she has also received a commendation from the Prime Minister."
Li Chenghao just glanced at other information and skipped it.
Regarding actors, Li Chenghao paid special attention to it.
A first-line singer, she has publicly disclosed her relationship, and her acting skills are online.
No matter how you look at it, Li Chenghao thinks that IU is a very suitable person.
We will meet tomorrow to finalize the contract to sign with Z Entertainment, and then talk to her alone.
It's really hard to grasp what kind of conditions she won't refuse. This chapter has been completed!
