Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 659 Weakness
Kim Hee-ya looked straight at Kim Sung-jun and knew clearly that Kim Jae-young had already learned the news about Kim Yong-jun from Kim Sung-jun.

Fortunately, Jin Jianying didn't get into trouble again because of being angry.

Jin Xiya didn't want to pay attention to him and turned to look at Jin Jianying who closed his eyes.

Jin Shengjun bowed slightly and said, "Dad, I will take my leave now. Please take care of your rest."

"it is good."

After Jin Shengjun left, Jin Jianying opened his eyes, "Xi Ya."

"I'm here," Jin Xiya hurried forward.

"You don't have to go abroad to study," Jin Jianying said firmly, "I will apply to the president of Seoul University on your behalf. You will report to the group's business planning office starting tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Jin Xiya frowned.

"Don't give me those excuses anymore, and don't talk about family," Jin Jianying said in a deep voice, "and don't say you can't do it. Just do what I say."

"Do you remember what I told you?" Jin Jianying's lips trembled, "Yongjun is fawned over by those directors all day long, making him feel so proud that he thinks he is a king."

"Sheng Jun is just like a hyena staring at this fake king's ass, and now he has found an opportunity to add insult to injury."

Jin Jianying stared at the silent Jin Xiya, and then said: "You are now a sophomore and will graduate. Students in some majors will also start internships in their third year. You should go there to study first and then directly take up the position after graduation."

"You should understand the current predicament of Tianxia Group."

Jin Xiya was silent for a long time before she raised her head and said, "I will do it. I will participate in the management."

Jin Jianying explained everything to Jin Xiya in detail and told her what to do in the company.

Until there was a knock on the ward door, the security guard leaned in and said, "President, the directors are here."

Jin Jianying nodded and signaled the security to let him pass.

"Dad," Jin Xiya said nervously, "You are not in good health right now, so it's better not to meet so many people."

"I know," Jin Jianying acted very calmly, "Just this once, go to the side and listen. Don't speak unless I ask you."

Jin Xiya couldn't persuade her father, and Jin Jianying had already asked someone to invite the security guards in, so she couldn't say anything more.

All the high-ranking directors of Tianxia Group were present, and the ward was now packed with them.

"President, Miss Xiya." They greeted Jin Jianying one by one, and Jin Jianying slowly spoke, "Now that everyone is here, I won't waste any more words."

He sounded full of energy and his voice was loud and clear at this moment.

"I would like to ask you, what is the current situation of the group?"

None of these powerful people wanted to speak.

"Just think of it as me asking for your advice," Jin Jianying sighed, "How big of an impact will Jin Yongjun have on the group? How should we deal with it? Is it possible that no one is speaking up?"

Jin Xiya watched silently from the side. These people were the directors who Jin Jianying mentioned had always been trying to curry favor with Jin Yongjun, the first heir.

"We have consulted with the Ministry of Justice, and there is a possibility of frame-up," a director spoke up to defend Kim Young-jun. "Chairman, I think what we need to do now is to file an appeal for CEO Young-jun."

"Besides, this video was distributed without the consent of the parties involved, which is also illegal." The director has a deep understanding of this aspect and has obviously done sufficient research. "We can also find opportunities and evidence. If we can prove that this attack was carried out by the Kinmen Group to weaken the commercial position of the Tianxia Group, the Fair Trade Commission can also intervene in the investigation according to the law."

The director, who had done his homework well, felt very pleased with himself, and his smile was raised even in the ward.

Unexpectedly, these words hit Jin Jianying's thigh completely.

Jin Jianying's face was gloomy, "Stop making excuses for Jin Yongjun!"

How could he not know that this was a frame-up? At most, Kim Young-jun had cheated on his wife, which was a sign of personal moral failure.

But they can't stop it.

"Whether this is true or not, it is undeniable that Jin Yongjun made a mistake," Jin Jianying said seriously, "Let him reflect on it in prison."

Kim Gun-young didn't care as much about Kim Young-jun's sentencing as outsiders thought.

This kind of sentencing is only in the surface sense. In fact, it cannot control the truly powerful people at all. After a year or two, they will just find a reason to reduce the sentence.

His only concern was that he had not yet communicated with the doctor in person and was not sure what his condition was.

"Now it's important to deal with the consequences of this."

Jin Jianying said, "Public opinion, stock price, and cooperative projects."

"I need you to come up with excellent response plans at every point."

"Focus on the aftermath, rather than just trying to rescue the guy who did something wrong."

The directors looked at each other, and could see the others' emotions from their eyes.

This obviously means giving up Kim Young-jun as the first heir.

Then what is the point of their flattery over the years?
"President," a director said, "What about the Golden Gate Group?"

He didn't dare to say more. Jin Jianying glanced at him expressionlessly and closed his eyes again. "I will talk to President Li in person later."

"."

"Xi Ya, please send the directors out for me. You need to communicate with them more after you go to the Business Planning Office."

"Yes," Jin Xiya stood up under the gaze of the directors, "Directors, Dad needs more rest, please follow me..."

Jin Xiya accompanied them to the elevator and bowed slightly before walking back.

In the elevator, the directors began to exchange their views.

"Director Jin, you have always been trusted by the president. Do you know what the president is thinking today?"

"What else could he be thinking?" Director Jin stood to the side, also frowning: "The president's intention is also very clear, that is, to give up Young Master Yongjun and let us concentrate on making up for the mistakes that Young Master Yongjun made."

"Then why is it Miss Xiya?" The elevator door opened and everyone walked out, and the voices became quieter, "instead of Master Shengjun?"

"Master Shengjun must have done something taboo," someone speculated, "otherwise he would not have given up his male heir and chosen his own daughter." "I told you clearly a long time ago that Master Shengjun is narrow-minded. I advised you not to be too partial and to make friends with Master Shengjun. But you didn't listen, fearing that you would annoy Master Yongjun," Director Jin sighed, "but from our point of view, we don't think it's better for the president to choose Miss Xiya than Master Shengjun."

Director Jin said softly, "After clinging to Master Yongjun for so long, Master Shengjun will inevitably have some opinions about us. If it were Miss Xiya, such a thing would not have happened."

When they reached the hospital entrance, they saw that their respective vehicles had already opened their doors and were waiting for them to go in, so they stopped again.

The director who had asked the question earlier stroked his shiny hair and smiled tentatively: "Then Director Jin, why don't you tell us how the president plans to deal with the relationship with the Golden Gate Group?"

"Our Tianxia Group has suffered a heavy blow this time. Are we just going to swallow our anger? Or is the president just trying to make peace on the surface while preparing a thundering blow behind the scenes?"

"Thunderbolt?" Director Jin sighed, "Based on my understanding of the president over the past thirty years, there is no way he would do such a thing."

"The president started from humble beginnings, and on his way to establishing Tianxia Group and becoming the president of Tianxia Group, he was very clear about the word 'tolerance'."

"The Tianxia Group has been hit hard. If we rashly start a war with the Kinmen Group, I'm afraid our forty-year foundation will be destroyed in an instant."

Director Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "Unless."

He looked around and kept silent.

"Unless what?"

Director Jin shook his head and got into the car.

Unless Jin Jianying is about to die and the Kinmen Group is pressing too hard, he will have no choice but to fight to the death.

Seeing Director Jin, who had become their temporary backbone, get in the car and leave, the other directors suddenly felt demoralized and they said goodbye to each other and started getting in the car to leave.

In Kim Gun-young's ward, Kim Hee-ya had already opened the curtains halfway, allowing some sunlight to shine in through the window.

Jin Xiya watched the directors with their own thoughts leave from the window, then she sat down beside Jin Jianying's bed with a frown.

"Xi Ya..."

Hearing Jin Jianying calling her, Jin Xiya quickly relaxed her brows and looked over, "Dad."

"Make a phone call for me."

"Chairman Li..." Jin Xiya called Li You for Jin Jianying. Jin Jianying was no longer as vigorous as he was in front of the directors just now. He said weakly: "Chairman Li should have vented enough anger these days. Shouldn't we ease up a little?"

The internal directors have their own thoughts and need him to be healthy to deter them.

In front of Li You, both Tianxia Group and Jin Jianying himself are now naturally the weaker party, so there is no need for Jin Jianying to pretend, and he might even make himself weaker.

"How can I vent my anger after what I did?" Li You said calmly, "President Jin, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you feeling lately?"

Since the speaker on her cell phone was on, Jin Xiya naturally heard what was said and there was some anger in her eyes for a moment.

With Li You's level of well-informedness, how could he not know about Jin Jianying's situation? He is just adding fuel to the fire.

Jin Jianying noticed Jin Xiya's expression and could only pat the back of her hand helplessly.

Jin Jianying comforted her daughter with one hand and laughed as if nothing had happened: "Thanks to Chairman Li, Jin is in good health now."

"Is that so?" Li You also pretended to believe it. "Then I wonder if President Jin would be so kind as to sit down with me for a drink and resolve some misunderstandings?"

"..."

Knowing that Jin Jianying was in poor health, Li You kept talking like this. Jin Jianying's face gloomy in front of her daughter.

The key point is that in the previous sentence he also said that he was in good health.

Jin Jianying closed his eyes and calmed down his shaky heart. "Although I am considered healthy, President Li may not know it."

"I was so angry about my son's matter a few days ago that I need to stay in the hospital for some time to recuperate. It is not convenient for me to drink. I can only decline President Li's kindness."

"Is there such a thing?" Li You pretended to be surprised, and then said with regret: "I did hear about the young master's affairs. This is indeed wrong. After all, he is a famous actor. How could he do such a thing?"

"The entertainment industry in the Korean Peninsula has always been subject to speculation from outsiders. People say that there are all kinds of bad things going on. We must prevent these things from happening and reduce the strange looks from the outside world. Otherwise, how can these actors make money for us?"

"President Li is right," Jin Jianying sighed, "My son is ignorant. He deserves to be caught by the prosecutor. I also plan to let him endure some jail time and accept the punishment. I will let him know his mistakes before he comes out."

"President Jin is indeed courageous enough to let his son spend six years in jail as a lesson and punishment," Li You said with a smile, "Should I go to the hospital to visit President Jin to show my respect?"

"Don't delay President Li for too long," Jin Jianying didn't want to see Li You, lest he get angry again, "there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"Okay," Li You hung up the phone with a smile.

As soon as he hung up the phone, Jin Jianying's face became completely gloomy.

"Li You has made up his mind to keep your brother in prison for six years," Jin Jianying closed his eyes, "He specifically emphasized this and told me not to think about helping Yongjun get a reduced sentence or anything like that."

"Dad, isn't Chairman Li going too far?" Jin Xiya felt bad for Jin Jianying. The eldest son was going to serve six years in prison all of a sudden. This was the first case among the chaebol.

For Kim Jae-young, who is old, frail and ill, it is hard to say whether she can wait until Kim Young-jun is released from prison.

"So President Li means that he doesn't want to reconcile with us?" Jin Xiya pursed her lips, "Are Tianxia and Jinmen going to continue this despicable business war?"

"It's hard to say." Jin Jianying sighed, "Li You was very careful with his words. Apart from emphasizing that your brother should not be released from prison early, he ignored everything else."

"In fact, I knew that this phone call wouldn't have much effect," Jin Jianying grabbed Jin Xiya's hand to comfort her, "How could a matter between two major groups like this be resolved with just one phone call?"

"But now the outside world sees that the war between Tianxia Group and Kinmen Group is just a matter of time," Jin Xiya said helplessly. "Investors are almost unanimously optimistic about Kinmen Group. The stock price of Tianxia Group continues to fall, and the stability of its management has been questioned. Now it has also affected the affiliated companies of Tianxia Group."

"This is normal," Jin Jianying said softly, "Our peninsula society is already very sensitive to the privileges of the chaebols. Your brother's scandal will also increase the public's dissatisfaction with the Tianxia family."

"So don't you need to run the planning department now?" Jin Jianying patted her shoulder encouragingly with an expectant look on his face.

"By the way," Jin Jianying nudged her, "No matter what, he is still your elder brother. If he has to go to jail, you should help prepare for it and go visit him with Shengjun."

"Good dad," Jin Xiya nodded, "I'll go find a doctor first, you have a good rest."

After Jin Xiya left, Jin Jianying let out a long breath and looked a little weaker.
