Chapter 783: 670, Kim Man-soo’s attention, and the commitnt he needs Chapter 783: 670, Kim Man-soo’s attention, and the commitnt he needs Xiao iying and the others had left.
Only Yang Hao and Kim Man-soo remained in the room.
However, when Kim Man-soo saw the kind of black card Yang Hao handed to Xiao iying, that wily old fox gave Yang Hao a aningful look and comnted, “It seems Chairman Yang is quite generous with won.”
“Hahahaha~~~!”
Yang Hao wasn’t irritated by Kim Man-soo’s insinuating remark; instead, he burst into laughter and said, “Well, you know, n!”
“It’s just my little hobby.”
“Hehe…” Seeing Yang’s frankness, Kim Man-soo also let out a light chuckle and replied, “Yes, that’s true!”
“But I’m old now!”
“There’s this slogan that often appears in Hua Country.”
“What’s it called again…”
“It’s…heart has…heart has…” Kim Man-soo seed unable to recall, pondering for quite so ti.
Finally, unable to tolerate his struggle with the phrase, Yang explained, “It’s called ‘the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak’.”
“But Chairman Kim,”
“You’re only about 50, right?”
“It shouldn’t be that bad.”
Hearing Yang say this, Kim Man-soo hurriedly waved his hands and replied, “No way, no way!”
“I played too hard when I was younger, now I really can’t keep up.”
“You don’t say!
From what I see, your secretary…”
Yang gave Kim Man-soo a knowing glance everyone could understand.
However, Kim Man-soo had co with an agenda, and bringing Song i-shun over was part of it; he quickly said to Yang, “You’ve really misunderstood this ti.”
“i-shun has real talent.”
“And besides…”
“Frankly speaking, I ca to you this ti because I have a favor to ask.”
There it was.
Kim Man-soo had finally got to the heart of the matter.
...
Yang Hao also knew that the ti for beating around the bush was over, and they had finally arrived at the main topic.
“What’s this about asking favors?”
“I’m the newcor here, and I have a lot I’ll need to ask of you, Chairman Kim.”
“Since we’re here today, why don’t we have an open chat?”
Yang waved his hand grandly, refilling their glasses with wine.
Now,
it was a matter of whether or not Kim Man-soo would take the bait.
As long as Kim Man-soo took the bait,
even if he wasn’t a financial tycoon, as long as the crafty old fox was willing to stand by him,
Yang was confident that he could gain a firm foothold in Korea, and then conquer the entire Korean entertainnt industry.
In fact, even before Yang Hao arrived in Korea, he had conducted a detailed investigation of Kim Man-soo and other Korean entertainnt companies.
If he had to pick who impressed him the most among these entertainnt companies,
Kim Man-soo would definitely rank in the top three.
And if Yang had to choose just one person,
then Kim Man-soo would certainly be his first pick.
As for why,
it was because only Kim Man-soo currently needed to take Yang into consideration.
As for the others,
every entertainnt company was backed by a financial tycoon.
Without the System’s arrangent, taking them down was not impossible for Yang, but the difficulty was not sothing Yang could handle alone.
But Kim Man-soo was different.
Yang didn’t need his background; he needed his connections in Korea.
And the reason Yang hadn’t gone to the MS Company headquarters to start his handover for two consecutive days
was that he was waiting for Kim Man-soo’s attitude.
Now, Kim Man-soo’s attitude was sothing Yang was very satisfied with.
At the sa ti, Kim Man-soo was relieved by Yang’s current deanor, and imdiately said, “Since it’s Chairman Yang—”
“Don’t Chairman Yang, Chairman Yang .”
“Since we’re able to sit here and chat, such formalities make us sound distant.”
“We Chinese people don’t have as many formalities as you Koreans.”
“You’re older than , so I’ll call you Brother Kim.”
“Just call Yang.”
With a few words, Yang had brought the relationship between them closer.
In terms of position,
Yang only had twice as many shares as Kim Man-soo.
But in terms of age and experience, Kim Man-soo deserved to be called “Brother”.
“Alright!”
“Then I’ll follow what Yang suggests.”
Kim Man-soo now felt confident in his heart.
Although he understood that Yang Hao was having a conversation with him in such a manner for a reason,
He had his own agenda too.
So,
This sort of conversation also relaxed Kim quite a bit.
“That’s more like it.”
“Go ahead, Brother Kim!”
“If there’s anything, just speak directly to .”
Having obtained the attitude he desired, Yang Hao once again poured them a wine worth hundreds of thousands per bottle.
This ti, however, Kim didn’t rush to drink but instead rubbed his slightly fatigued face from the recent events and said, “To be honest with you,”
“The matter involving you hasn’t made my days easy recently.”
“Understandable…” Yang nodded, and then explained, “Actually, I have no other purpose.”
“You must have done your research on .”
“I simply want to expand my entertainnt business into Korea.”
“After all, Korea does have many areas worth learning from for us Chinese.”
This point Yang made wasn’t false at all.
In Asia,
If one were to say who could match Korea’s rapidly developing entertainnt industry,
It wouldn’t necessarily be easily decided.
After all, Korea’s entertainnt industry had already beco a highly militarized production base.
Exactly.
A production base.
“Since Yang has put it this way, I won’t hide anything either,” seeing Yang was relatively open, Kim Man-soo spoke again, “Originally this ti,”
“I ca here because I had no choice.”
“The financial tycoon behind MS Company is Lotte Group.”
“If you don’t help out this ti, Yang,”
“I can only…”
Recalling Park Deok-hyun’s attitude towards himself,
And rembering Lotte Group’s various actions,
Kim understood.
If he didn’t make a move, he would surely end up as cannon fodder.
Unless he decided to take the risk of jumping ship.
But now,
There was a chance.
And that opportunity was Yang Hao.
“How can I help?”
“In what way can I assist?”
Yang asked the questions on his mind.
He knew.
Touching the cake of the financial tycoons behind MS Company ant he would have to clash with these tycoons sooner or later.
But now,
Things looked interesting.
“Breaking away from Lotte Group.”
“Switching to collaborate with other financial tycoons.”
“And I…
need a promise from you, Yang,”
Kim laid out his idea, and also needed a commitnt from Yang,
A promise to ensure his own interests.
“What promise!” Yang hadn’t expected Kim to be so bold.
To actually dare to offend the financial tycoon behind him.
No one else dares to say it,
But the financial tycoons in Korea essentially act like local emperors.
“Assure my final shares, and my ultimate benefits.”
In business terms,
The brotherly titles they just exchanged were rely an attitude.
But now,
Kim needed Yang to guarantee his status in Korea, his position, and his ultimate shares and benefits.
That was Kim’s demand.
It was also his bargaining chip for turning towards Yang.
If Yang agreed,
Then Kim would use his connections and relationships to help Yang develop in Korea.
If not,
Kim would just have to take the risk of offending one tycoon and switch allegiance to another.
