Just as Li Yuanbin was expressing his deep love to Huang Lizhi, a secret meeting was taking place on the top floor of a company.
There were no lights on in the dim office. The only source of light was probably the street lamps outside the glass. If you looked outside, you could vaguely see the top of a high-rise building not far away.
Several sofas are placed in an orderly manner around a rectangular coffee table.
Four well-dressed middle-aged men and women sat on both sides of the coffee table, and at one end of the table sat the protagonist of this year's meeting - Jin Chenghao, the founder of AlignPartners.
The atmosphere at the scene was very solemn and no one was talking.
Jin Chenghao leaned forward slightly, picked up the cup of water in front of him that was still steaming, put it to his mouth and took a sip, then held the cup with both hands and placed it on his legs.
He didn't look at the people present, but lowered his head to look at the steaming cup of water, and said slowly: "I heard that the SM Entertainment incident might be related to a large group?"
The woman sitting at the right of Kim Seung-ho nodded solemnly, then glanced at everyone present and explained to Kim Seung-ho, "Yes, that's right. Early this morning, Kering Group Chairman Lee Won-bin visited SM Entertainment. Lee Soo-man personally greeted them. The two spent nearly an hour in the office. Then, Girls' Generation member Kim Taeyeon showed Lee Won-bin around the company, and they left four hours later."
This woman has a very clear grasp of Li Yuanbin's whereabouts in SM Entertainment this morning, which shows that they have an informant in SM Entertainment.
Having said this, the woman paused for a moment and opened her mouth several times but no words came out.
"If you have anything else, just say it!" Jin Chenghao frowned and glanced at her and said.
"I heard that the day before Lee Won Bin came to SM Entertainment, which was yesterday, Lee Soo Man invited Lee Won Bin to dinner. What the two talked about is unknown."
Jin Chenghao nodded silently, then after a moment's hesitation, he said to them, "So, this was a premeditated visit?"
Everyone was silent. Li Yuanbin's visit really caught them off guard.
If someone else were to get involved in this mess, they wouldn't take it so seriously and would just proceed step by step according to the plan.
But now it seems that the one who is going to enter is Lee Won-bin, who is arguably the most outstanding and capable heir among all the chaebols in the entire peninsula, bar none!
Sitting on Kim Seung-ho's left was a middle-aged man in a suit.
He looked troubled, glanced at Jin Chenghao who was sitting in the main seat, and said after a moment of hesitation: "With Li Yuanbin here, this matter will be difficult to handle..."
The three people except Jin Chenghao nodded in agreement when they heard the man's words.
But Jin Chenghao doesn't think so. Just because it's difficult doesn't mean it can't be done.
Everything depends on human effort, so this needs to be planned carefully.
He slowly raised his head and looked around. The people who were nodding and sending telegrams to each other lowered their heads instantly.
Jin Chenghao paused for a moment and said slowly, "Even if Lee Wonbin joins the game, what's the point? Will Samsung personally intervene for a small entertainment company? Instead of thinking about this, we should think about how to gain more support from SM Entertainment shareholders so that we can win the board election in two months!"
"Yes, yes, the president is right!"
"We thought too much!"
The woman sitting on Jin Chenghao's right and her partner at the end tried their best to agree with him, they were two real lackeys.
"But can we really compete with Kering? That's..."
The words of the man sitting at the last seat on Jin Chenghao's left made everyone present change their expressions drastically.
Jin Chenghao's face gradually became gloomy, his lips trembled slightly, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes. He slowly exerted force on his right hand holding the cup, and veins bulged on the back of his skinny hand.
Before the man could finish his words, Jin Chenghao suddenly jumped up and threw the water cup in his hand at the man.
The man couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the water cup thrown by Jin Chenghao, which opened his eyebrow. Blood immediately gushed out. He curled up there with his hands covering his face, and stopped talking.
"Do you dare to repeat what you just said?"
"What do you mean we can't compete with Kering?"
"We are all on the same page. Do you want to quit now? Do you want to be a traitor?"
The originally quiet office was now filled with Jin Chenghao's roar.
Jin Chenghao stood up with his hands on his hips and started to scold the man. The people around him seemed not to see what happened and waited quietly for Jin Chenghao to finish venting.
After Jin Chenghao calmed down, he sat on the sofa panting, then looked at the man on his left, waved his hand, and spoke nonchalantly.
"Two people come and take him down!"
The man nodded, took out his cell phone and tapped a few times on the screen. Soon, two strong men came in, one of them held the man's arm and walked outside.
What was originally a meeting of five people has now become a meeting of four.
But it doesn’t matter. In the end, it’s still Kim Seung-ho who makes the final decision, so it doesn’t matter whether there are fewer people or not.
Jin Chenghao put his right hand on his neck, loosened his tie, then unbuttoned the front of his suit, crossed his legs, and rested his arms naturally on the armrests.
Glancing at the three people who were still here, Jin Chenghao understood that he still had to give them confidence at this time. No matter how strong the city wall was, if it rotted inside, it would not last long.
Jin Chenghao pondered for a moment and said to them, "I had expected that Li Yuanbin would enter the venue. There is no need to panic."
