Song Yi originally considered asking Gao Xianzhen to meet at Song Suying's beauty salon, but after considering it, he gave up the idea.
Gao Xianzhen is now divorcing Zhou Rongzhen. If Zhou Rongzhen knew that Gao Xianzhen and Song Yi met privately in the beauty salon, the reputation of Song Suying's beauty salon would be ruined. Because this kind of high-end beauty salon for Korean upper-class socialites focuses on privacy and strictly prohibits men from entering.
Choi Sun-hee and Gao Hyun-jeong told Song Yi about his idea of asking her out to discuss the script. Gao Hyun-jeong agreed when she heard that the meeting place was at Choi Sun-hee's home. She really didn't want to appear in public now.
Song Yi received a text message from Cui Shanji, so he immediately set out from the New Asia Building. In order to keep a low profile, Song Yi borrowed Jin Xiyuan's Elantra.
Song Yi's current cars are a Rolls-Royce Silver Angel, a BMW 7 Series and his first Mercedes-Benz. These cars are too eye-catching.
He also has a Hyundai Elantra, but Song Yi rarely drives it. He drove his Elantra to Song Suying's beauty salon to meet Chen Fuzhen.
Jin Xiyuan was a little confused. Song Yi was so mysterious. Could he be borrowing her car to go on a date with a lover? When Song Yi said he was going to Cui Shanji's house to discuss something, Jin Xiyuan remembered the long hair she found when she went to pick up Song Yi last time, so she insisted on going with Song Yi.
She is Song Yi's woman now, so of course she cannot give other women the opportunity to be alone with Song Yi, not even the married Cui Shanji.
Song Yi thinks that if Jin Xiyuan goes with him, it can also reduce Gao Xianzhen's vigilance, and Jin Xiyuan can also help persuade Gao Xianzhen. Jin Xiyuan is the president of Xinya Agency, and her presence also shows Song Yi's sincerity.
"Let's go, but don't be surprised no matter who you meet later. Remember to look at my eyes and act accordingly." Song Yi reminded Jin Xiyuan.
When Jin Xiyuan heard Song Yi agree so readily, she knew that Song Yi was going to discuss serious matters this time, and suddenly she didn't want to go there anymore.
Jin Xiyuan sat in the passenger seat. She tested Song Yi who was driving on the road, "OPPA, I'm going to Sister Shanji's house with you this time. Will it ruin your good thing?"
Song Yi said angrily, "What are you thinking about? I came here specially to deliver World Cup opening ceremony tickets to Zaican's family, and to sign an actor while I'm there."
"Sign an actress?" Jin Xiyuan was even more confused. "Son Hee's daughter is only two years older than Seo Ju Hyun, right? Is she going to decide to debut as an artist so early?"
Song Yi denied, "What nonsense! Brother Zaican's family's company is already listed, and his daughter will be the apple of the eye of the chaebol family in the future. How could Brother Zaican and his family agree to their daughter's debut as an artist?"
Jin Xiyuan snorted. What did Song Yi mean by this? Was he implying that Kim Tae-hee's family was not as rich as Chen Zaican's family? "There are many super rich second-generations in the Korean entertainment industry, such as singer PSY, whose grandfather was the president of a semiconductor company. There is also actor Lee Seo-jin, whose grandfather was the president of Seoul Bank and First Bank." Jin Xiyuan refuted.
"Xiyuan, you have to understand that having a rich grandfather and having a rich father are two completely different things. No matter how rich your grandfather is, there may not be much left for you. Jaechan's grandfather, Chen Bingzhe, was once the richest man in South Korea, and his company almost went bankrupt." Song Yi said slowly.
Song Yi found that Koreans have a strong sense of comparison. Artists actually want to enter the entertainment industry to make money, but they like to create a persona that their family is very rich. Have you ever seen a child from a chaebol family enter the entertainment industry as an artist?
Typical examples include Bae Doona and Choi Siwon. Bae Doona's father is the vice president of a large Korean food and health company with an annual revenue of 7 billion RMB. It sounds impressive, but he is actually just a corporate executive.
The same is true for Choi Siwon, who said that his father was the chairman of a well-known supermarket chain in South Korea and his mother was a diplomat.
SJ's teammates often say that Choi Siwon's family is rich enough to buy out SM Entertainment. Lee Soo Man probably thought he was laughing when he saw this report. However, among all the trainees who debuted in SM Entertainment, Choi Siwon's family is the richest one.
The logistics company of my girlfriend Kim Tae-hee's family has an annual revenue of over 10 billion won, which is only about 50 to 60 million yuan when converted into RMB. Generally speaking, the net profit of a logistics company is only 3% to 10%. So the actual annual income of Kim Tae-hee's family is about one million yuan, which can be considered wealthy, but it has nothing to do with the word chaebol.
The only real chaebol in the entertainment industry is Chen Meijing, but she is the president of CJ Entertainment, the largest media company in South Korea. Her status and position are many times higher than those of these Korean artists.
Song Yi wants to publish a special issue to puncture the bubble halo of these super rich second-generations in South Korea. Some female fans in the mainland are very fond of this. Our brother's family is so rich, and he is willing to lower himself to become an artist. If he fails as an artist, he will have to go home and inherit the 10 billion yuan fortune. Can 10 billion won and 10 billion yuan be the same thing? These female fans wear wedding dresses to watch their idols' concerts, fantasizing that they can marry into a wealthy family, and emphasizing that this is a two-way rush with their idols. They also emphasize to their boyfriends that wedding dresses have no specific meaning, they have the freedom to dress, and just want to make their youth without regrets.
Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan appeared at the door of Cui Shanji's house. Cui Shanji, dressed in cool clothes, came to open the door for Song Yi. It is now late May, and the weather in Seoul has begun to get hot.
Cui Shanji welcomed Song Yi and the other into the house. Song Yi didn't know that the scene of him and Cui Shanji talking at the door had been photographed by two paparazzi with a telephoto lens.
The two paparazzi were very excited. They had been commissioned to monitor Choi Sun-hee's activities and today they finally captured some substantial content.
Cui Shanji's husband and children were not at home, so Song Yi came to Cui Shanji's house alone to meet her. The content of the photos is easy to make people imagine.
Paparazzi A was a little puzzled. "If Song Yi came to Cui Shanji's house to have an affair with her, why did he bring a female assistant with him? Isn't it better if fewer people know about this?"
Paparazzi B answered casually, "What's so strange about this? When these rich men are having sex with women outside, they will not avoid their female assistants. Some rich men have sex with women upstairs, and their female assistants are watching downstairs."
Paparazzi A gave what he thought was the most reasonable explanation, "Maybe the female assistants will serve Song Yi together with Cui Shanji. Who wouldn't want to play with one king and two queens? Besides, this female assistant is pretty."
Kim Hee-won wore sunglasses when she got out of the car, so the two paparazzi did not recognize her. After the paparazzi developed the photos, they immediately reported to Chen Zairong behind the scenes.
When Chen Zairong heard that the paparazzi had achieved results, he immediately rushed to the vicinity of the filming site. Chen Zairong asked the paparazzi, "Did Song Yi just go in?"
Paparazzi A answered respectfully, "Yes, he had just entered not long ago, and Choi Sun-hee opened the door for him in her pajamas, which were very sexy."
Chen Zairong looked at the photos and hesitated. "These two photos don't prove anything. It would be better if we could take pictures of Song Yi and Cui Shanji in the house."
Paparazzi B quickly replied, "We actually wanted to take pictures of what was going on inside the house, but Song Yi and his friends seemed to be afraid of being seen by outsiders, so they drew the curtains on all the windows of the house, fearing that outsiders would see what was going on inside. If Song Yi and Cui Shanji were not having an affair in the house, why did they draw all the curtains?"
Chen Zairong thought the paparazzi's judgment was reasonable, so he took the photos and left first. He had to call Chen Zairong back to catch the adulterer.
"You didn't keep negatives of these photos, did you?" Chen Zairong asked the paparazzi.
He only wanted to sow discord between Song Yi and Chen Zaichan, but he didn't want the news of Choi Sun-hee's affair to appear in the newspapers. After all, Choi Sun-hee is the daughter-in-law of the Samsung family. If the media knew that Song Yi slept with Choi Sun-hee, the Samsung family would feel ashamed, and even his wife Lin Zhiling would be implicated.
"No, no!" Paparazzi A waved his hands repeatedly. He had done a lot of private work for Chen Zairong before, so he certainly knew the taboos of the chaebol family.
If this matter was exposed by the media, Chen Zairong would definitely suspect them first, and Song Yi might also track them down. Without Chen Zairong's protection, they could not afford Song Yi's revenge, and he might even have to go into exile overseas. Chen Zairong handed the prepared cash to the two paparazzi, "You stay here for a while, I'll come over later. If Song Yi leaves the villa early, you should also call me to let me know."
"Don't say things that you shouldn't say, and don't ask things that you shouldn't ask. After the matter is done, I will give you another bonus. If the outside world knows about this secret filming, you two should prepare to sink to the bottom of the Han River!" Chen Zairong's tone was very cold.
After Chen Zairong finished his instructions, he immediately drove to Seoul Plaza. Chen Zaican should be handling official business at the company now. I wonder how Chen Zaican felt when he saw his wife Cui Shanji wearing pajamas and dating Song Yi at his house? Jin Xiyuan and Song Yi entered the villa together. She saw Cui Shanji wearing pajamas and quickly apologized, "Did I disturb Sister Shanji's rest?"
Cui Shanji didn't expect Song Yi to bring Jin Xiyuan with him, so her pajamas were wasted. "It's okay, I just came back from the beauty salon. I felt sticky after the body treatment, so I took a shower. Because the weather is hot, I usually wear pajamas when I'm at home."
After Cui Shanji finished explaining, she said to Song Yi, "Hyun-jeong is waiting for you in the study. Since Xiyuan came with you, I won't go to the study later, so as not to affect your conversation."
If Kim Hee-won did not accompany Song Yi, then Choi Sun-hee, as the host, would have to accompany them and not let Song Yi and Ko Hyun-jeong be alone in the room. This is also to protect the reputation of Ko Hyun-jeong and Song Yi to avoid any rumors accidentally spreading.
Now that Kim Hee-won has come along, Choi Sun-hee can go back to the bedroom to rest for a while. When she wakes up, she will get up and pick up her daughter from school.
Cui Shanji led Song Yi to the study and knocked on the door. "Xianzhen, Chairman Song and Executive Director Jin are here together."
Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan entered the study room, and Gao Xianzhen was kneeling beside the coffee table, reading a novel.
Gao Xianzhen obviously didn't wear any makeup today. She stood up and greeted Song Yi and the other two one by one.
Kim Hee-won sat down with Song Yi, and she then saw clearly that the novel in Gao Xianzhen's hand was "Mrs. Chatterley's Lover".
She glanced at Song Yi in a strange way. Song Yi and Gao Xianzhen were meeting secretly. Gao Xianzhen was reading this novel again, and it was hard for Jin Xiyuan not to think too much.
Gao Xianzhen naturally put the novel aside. Today was a rare moment for her to relax. She didn't choose this novel deliberately, but she saw it next to the coffee table in the study, so she picked it up and read a few pages. Needless to say, the content of the novel was quite attractive to her.
"President Song, I heard that you are planning to invite me to star in a TV series. Would it be convenient for me to take a look at the script?" Gao Hyun-jung spoke in a soft voice that was very comfortable to hear.
Although Song Yi plans to shoot "Queen Seondeok", the screenwriter Kim Young-hyun has not started writing the script yet, so the script has not even been finalized.
Currently, New Asia Media is focusing on filming "Dae Jang Geum" in the second half of the year, so it is impossible to start another historical drama. If the two dramas "Dae Jang Geum" and "Queen Seondeok" are released, it is easy for them to collide, and the audience will also be aesthetically fatigued.
"The script has not been completed yet. The main content of this TV series is to tell the story of Queen Seondeok, the first queen of Silla. We would like to invite you to play Queen Seondeok." Song Yi said.
In the 2009 version of "Queen Seondeok", Ko Hyun-jung played the role of Jinheung King's concubine Mi-sa. At that time, Ko Hyun-jung was already 38 years old. If she had played the role of Queen Seondeok, it would not have been appropriate. Now, Ko Hyun-jung is just over 30 years old, so it is just right for her to play the role of Queen Seondeok.
After giving birth to a pair of children, Gao Xianzhen tried to return to acting many times, but was rejected by her mother-in-law Chen Mingxi. After all, as a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, it was difficult for her mother-in-law to accept her having intimate scenes with male stars in the drama.
"Although I am very interested in Chairman Song's script, my mother-in-law may not agree to let me star in the TV series." Gao Hyun-jeong looked apologetic.
Cui Shanji came in at this time and served a pot of tea to Song Yi and the other two. Cui Shanji poured tea for Song Yi, Jin Xiyuan and Gao Xianzhen in order, "Please enjoy your tea. If you need anything, please let me know."
When Cui Shanji bent down to pour tea for Song Yi, Song Yi accidentally saw Cui Shanji's chest, and he quickly lowered his head.
Gao Xianzhen also noticed Song Yi's action and guessed in her heart, "It turns out that President Song is not as romantic as the outside world rumored. But Sister Shanji was able to wear pajamas to entertain Song Yi and his family. It seems that Song Yi and their family are really close friends."
When she first arrived at Cui Shanji's house, she was actually a little nervous, worried that Cui Shanji would act as a middleman and introduce her to Song Yi on a date.
"Chen Mingxi is your mother-in-law this year, but she may not be your mother-in-law next year. I just want to establish a good relationship with you in advance. If you are considering a comeback, New Asia Media is your first choice." Song Yi persuaded.
Gao Xianzhen understood what Song Yi meant and felt a little uncomfortable. Her expression faded a little. "President Song still likes to ask about my family affairs? President Song is really well-informed."
"I know much more than you think. As long as you promise to join Xinya Agency after your comeback, the agency can provide you with support when you have conflicts with your in-laws." Song Yi said.
Gao Xianzhen was immediately moved when she heard Song Yi's suggestion. She was worried about the custody and visitation rights of her child.
For the sake of her children's long-term consideration, she would definitely not fight for their custody. If the children were awarded to her by the court, they would automatically lose the right to inherit the shares of New World Group. At that time, Zhou Rongzhen's huge family business would also benefit Zhou Rongzhen's wife who came later and their children.
However, Gao Xianzhen knew how difficult her mother-in-law Chen Mingxi was. If she and Zhou Rongzhen divorced, her mother-in-law Chen Mingxi would not even agree to let her visit her children.
Fighting alone and having the support of an agency are two different things, and Song Yi doesn't seem to be afraid of offending Zhou Rongzhen. After all, Song Yi has offended both Samsung Princess Chen Fuzhen and Samsung Crown Prince Chen Zaiyong, and he is still so free and easy every day.
Although Zhou Rongzhen is arrogant at home, he is still humble in front of Chen Zairong and his sister. If Song Yi provides Gao Xianzhen with connections or legal support, she can at least get a few billion won more in child support from Zhou Rongzhen, and also fight for the right to visit the children.
"Is President Song so optimistic about my performance in the drama 'Queen Seondeok'? If he is willing to offend New World Group just to invite me to star in a TV drama, then President Song's efforts and rewards are obviously not proportional."
Gao Xianzhen now has some doubts about who wants to get her. Since Gao Xianzhen became famous, many wealthy businessmen have expressed their affection for Gao Xianzhen.
Kim Hee-won also agreed with Gao Hyun-jung's words. There are countless good actresses in Korea, and there is really no need to offend the New World Group just for Gao Hyun-jung.
Song Yi looked at Jin Xiyuan, signaling her to persuade Gao Xianzhen. Jin Xiyuan thought quickly, "Mrs. Zhou, our president is actually a loyal fan of yours. Our president really likes the TV series "Hourglass" that you starred in before you retired."
"He is like the bodyguard played by Lee Jung-jae in "Hourglass". His love for you is one-way and unrequited. Our president is willing to lend you a helping hand when you need help the most now," Kim Hee-won emphasized.
Gao Xianzhen heard Jin Xiyuan say this and felt unbelievable. Song Da, the chairman of Xinya Media, was actually my fan and had been secretly in love with me for so many years? Song Yi knew that Jin Xiyuan was definitely doing it on purpose. This woman was just looking for fun and not minding the big things. In the drama "Hourglass", Lee Jung-jae played a bodyguard who had a crush on the rich girl Huilin (Gao Xianzhen).
Because the heroine Huilin is sandwiched between the two male protagonists Choi Min-soo and Park Sang-won, Lee Jung-jae only likes Huilin unilaterally. Because he does not seek returns, he wins the sympathy and love of many viewers. The bodyguard played by Lee Jung-jae later died thinking that the heroine Huilin sacrificed herself. Lee Jung-jae's character can be called the originator of dog-licking in Korean dramas.
However, after Chen Jae-yong and Lin Zhiling divorced, the former Samsung Crown Princess Lin Zhiling became Lee Jung-jae's girlfriend, and Lee Jung-jae also became the Korean film emperor, turning from a bootlicker into a winner in life.
Song Yi was helpless. "I am indeed a loyal fan of Miss Gao Xianzhen. "Hourglass" is also the first Korean TV series I have watched. When I first saw you playing Miss Huilin, I fell in love with her. It was also because of this TV series that I went to learn more about the cause of the Gwangju incident."
The TV series "Hourglass" is set against the backdrop of the Gwangju Incident and tells the story of the lives of three young people from different family backgrounds during an era of political turmoil.
When Jin Xiyuan heard Song Yi say this, she was stunned for a moment. Did Song Yi really learn about the Gwangju incident because of this incident, and therefore fully support the progressive congressman Song Yuxi to run for the presidency of South Korea? While Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan were persuading Gao Xianzhen, Chen Zaican was rushing home anxiously.
He knew that Chen Zairong had no good intentions and deliberately used the photo to stir up trouble. However, he also knew that his wife Cui Shanji had a good impression of Song Yi and often praised Song Yi for his ability in front of him and often asked him to invite Song Yi to dinner at home.
But being friends with Song Yi is one thing, being his brother-in-law is another. "What the hell! Doesn't Song Yi know the truth that 'a friend's wife should not be bullied'? Sun Ji's looks are far inferior to Jun Ji Hyun and Song Hye Kyo. Are you just looking for excitement?" Chen Zai Can cursed in his heart.
Chen Zaican hated Chen Zairong in his heart, and he would rather Chen Zairong not show him the photos. In this way, he could at least pretend to be deaf and dumb, and pretend that nothing happened, which would not affect his friendship with Song Yi, nor would it affect the overall situation of Xinya Media's backdoor listing.
He was very confused now and didn't know how to deal with it. What should he do if he came home and found Song Yi and Cui Shanji having an affair at home? He couldn't beat Song Yi to vent his anger, so he could only agree to divorce Cui Shanji.
Without Song Yi's support, the advertising agreements with SK, Hyundai, LG and Asan Group will be invalidated next year, and Song Yi will not be able to continue to serve as the creative director of Shinhan Media. Shinhan Media's revenue will definitely decline sharply, and it may be delisted from KOSPI in less than two years.
But since Chen Zairong gave him the photos, Chen Zaican certainly couldn't just do nothing, that would be too cowardly of him. He couldn't possibly tell Chen Zairong that he had known about the affair between Song Yi and Cui Shanji for a long time, and that he acquiesced to their dating at home, just for the sake of the hundreds of billions of won in revenue after the backdoor listing? Chen Zaican went straight to the bedroom when he got home, and he found that the bedroom door was locked. He was now furious, his face flushed, and he kept knocking on the bedroom door.
Cui Shanji was woken up by Chen Zaican. She was a little unhappy. She opened the door and found Chen Zaican standing at the door, looking at her angrily.
Chen Zaican looked at Cui Shanji in her pajamas. He felt that his guess was confirmed, and his heart was in great pain as if ants were gnawing at his heart. He was a little discouraged for a moment, "Where is Song Yi?"
Cui Shanji felt a little puzzled. Why did Chen Zaican suddenly come home from work early and ask where Song Yi was? She suddenly understood that her husband came back to catch her and Song Yi having an affair! She was not afraid of Chen Zaican. When Chen Zaican's company was about to go bankrupt, she took her daughter to live in her parents' home. If it weren't for the improvement of New Han Media, she would not have been able to reconcile with Chen Zaican. Speaking of which, she was able to reconcile with Chen Zaican, and Song Yi also contributed to it.
"Chen Zaican, what do you mean? Do you suspect that I'm having an affair at home and come back to catch me? Even if I have a man at home, it's none of your business. You don't even cultivate your own fields, so why don't you ask others to come and help you apply fertilizer and move the soil? You don't believe me, right? Okay, let's get a divorce tomorrow!" Cui Shanji was furious.
The noise of the quarrel between Chen Zaican and Cui Shanji alarmed the three people who were discussing something in the study. Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan hurried out of the study and prepared to persuade Chen Zaican and his wife.
When Chen Zaican saw Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan, who were dressed neatly, his mind suddenly short-circuited, "Song Yi, why are you downstairs?"
Song Yi was speechless. Your wife was sleeping in the bedroom upstairs, and I was in the study talking to someone. I wasn't downstairs, so was I upstairs? So you guys really want me to give you a hat to keep you warm? Jin Xiyuan understood all of a sudden and quickly explained, "President Chen, the president and I came here to discuss something. The two of us are going to persuade Miss Gao Xianzhen to sign with our New Asia Agency."
"We have been discussing things in the study this afternoon, and now we have almost finished discussing things. Because Miss Gao Xianzhen doesn't want to meet outside, and she and Sister Shanji are good friends, so we arranged to meet in your study."
"This matter is my fault. I borrowed your study room without informing you in advance. Did you hear some rumors and misunderstand me?" Jin Xiyuan said tactfully.
Gao Xianzhen also showed up at this time. She greeted Chen Zaican first and said, "I am really sorry for disturbing your home today."
Chen Jae-chan now understood that Song Yi came here today not to date his wife Choi Sun-hee, but to meet actress Gao Hyun-jung privately.
If Jin Xiyuan hadn't come, Chen Zaican might still have doubts. Jin Xiyuan is the sister of Song Yi's girlfriend Jin Taixi and the president of Xinya Agency. With Jin Xiyuan watching, it is impossible for Song Yi to have anything with Cui Shanji.
Gao Xianzhen didn't want to get involved in Chen Zaican and Cui Shanji's family affairs, so she was ready to leave. Cui Shanji said she would go downstairs to take her home, but Gao Xianzhen refused.
Chen Zaican was embarrassed now. He originally wanted to go home and catch the adulterer, but he caught nothing and such a ridiculous misunderstanding happened. Now he didn't know how to end it.
Chen Zairong sat in the car, watching the movements in Chen Zaican's room. He hoped that Chen Zaican and Song Yi would fight, the harder the fight, the better. Then he would help mediate as a middleman. Song Yi must compensate Chen Zaican for mental damages.
Not long after Chen Zaican went in, a woman suddenly drove away from the villa. Chen Zairong thought this woman looked familiar, eh? Isn't this Zhou Rongzhen's wife Gao Xianzhen? Why did she suddenly appear in Chen Zaican's house? Was she also present when Song Yi and Cui Shanji had an affair? After Gao Xianzhen left, Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan also walked out of the villa. Chen Zairong found that Song Yi was neatly dressed and there was no sign of fighting on his body. Chen Zairong felt a little strange, "Could it be that Zaichan was so scared that he just let Song Yi go? Then he is too useless, you deserve to be cheated!"
Chen Zairong originally wanted to see Chen Zaican and Song Yi's embarrassment, but when he saw Jin Xiyuan next to Song Yi, he knew that things were not what he expected. No matter how lustful Song Yi was, it was impossible for him to take his girlfriend's sister to have an affair with Cui Shanji.
If Song Yi came to Chen Zaican's house this time not to have a secret meeting with Cui Shanji, then his real purpose was to have a secret meeting with Gao Xianzhen?
