ALL NOVEL chapter 28
28. Unlimited Power (2)
The manager, who was paying attention, activated the speaker phone mode with an expression that he could not help it. He then put his smartphone on the table.
Then, as if he had waited, the president spoke to his smartphone.
“Hello? Are you Yoonhee?”
「Hello? Hello, boss.”
“Oh, yes. Did you go in well?”
「Yes, thanks. I’m really sorry for coming out without saying goodbye.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I heard from the manager.
I fully understand. By the way, did you call me for that?”
「I have that, and there are other things.」
At Yoon-hee’s words that she had other business, the president tilted her head once and asked.
“Huh? Something else? Like what?”
「The official announcement I was talking about earlier.」
“Yes, why?”
「I think it would be okay to announce it now.」
“… Now?”
At Yoon-hee’s words, the president and general manager looked at their smartphones with puzzled expressions.
“The government announcement comes in the evening? Did you make an announcement just now?”
“Um, the government announcement hasn’t come out yet.
Oh, hasn’t the news changed yet?」
Burr—. Burr-.
Burr—. Burr-.
At that time, the vibration of the smartphone was heard from the arms of the president and manager.
At the sound of the vibrations heard at the same time, the president and manager secretly looked at their arms.
Then, after exchanging glances with expressions that could not be understood further, they moved their gaze to the manager’s smartphone.
“News, what news? And change?”
「Oh, sorry. It seems you’ve been really busy with my work. Seeing that you haven’t heard the news yet.”
The boss seemed frustrated at Yoon-hee’s voice, who seemed playful.
“News? I don’t know, so let’s talk calmly. What the hell is going on?”
「hehehe, work… Iknow, right. A very big thing happened.”
“… What is it big deal?”
Hearing those words, the manager took out a smartphone from his arm and held it up. And the eyes of the general manager who was looking at the smartphone started to get bigger.
Within seconds, the manager jumped up with a shocked look on his face and walked quickly toward the wall where the wall-mounted TV was hung.
“… ? Why is he like that again?”
「Oh, was there anyone else?」
“Uh, it’s nothing else, I was talking to the head of the general planning team about you.
I was listening to it because I thought it would be okay.”
「Director Shin? I see. It’s just fine.”
Approaching the TV, the manager picked up the nearby remote control and started to turn on the TV. When the TV was turned on, there was a channel related to idols, like an entertainment agency.
However, the manager did not pay attention to the channel and hurriedly changed the TV channel.
So the general manager hurriedly changed the channel,
On the TV screen…
《Ch. XXX – XX News Channel》
【Transmission temporarily suspended due to circumstances of the broadcasting company―】
“…… What?”
“…… Her?”
“…… To?”
Only bloody sentences containing the word transmission stop were being broadcast on TV.
Manager turned to another news channel.
《Ch. XXX – YY News Channel》
【Sorry. Currently, our broadcaster is temporarily―]
Then I turned the channel again.
《Ch. XXX – General NewsZZ Channel》
【Currently adjusting. Viewers-]
In this way, the manager turned to several channels specializing in news reports, but all of them showed only a notice saying that the transmission had been stopped.
Until now, the president’s face, which had been showing a sense of composure even when the manager said something, was gradually collapsing.
Within seconds, the president opened his mouth with a shocked face.
“Hey, how did this happen?”
「Huh? What are you doing?」
“The news channels… All of them tasted good?… “
「Oh, already?」
“Already… Called?”
Hearing Yoon-hee’s words already, the president shouted with an even more astonished face.
“Choi Yoon-hee! What are you doing!—”
「Ah, it’s nothing special~」
Yoon-hee started talking in a very bright voice, as if she really didn’t care.
「My pretty son will avenge me~
I just waved my hand at the broadcasting station’s camera~」
“…… What?”
I couldn’t properly understand Yoon-hee’s words with the president’s head. Not only the president but also the manager were just opening their mouths with a dumbfounded face, as if they didn’t understand properly.
But only one person,
Only the manager looked at the smartphone and the TV alternately with a face full of astonishment, muttering quietly to himself.
“… Oh my god. Was it real?”
“What is it, what is it?”
As if he couldn’t stand his curiosity, the president jumped up from his seat and approached the manager.
Then, she glanced over her shoulder at the smartphone her manager was looking at.
On the smartphone, a text message that seemed to be sent by another employee was displayed on the screen.
[Breaking News! Currently, 6 news channels and 1 public broadcasting station have been suspended for violating the Male Media Protection Act!] – Read
[The reason is that a broadcast accident occurred in which a man was caught on camera during a live report and was transmitted as it is! Confirmed that the man sent out was recently voluntarily discharged!] – Read
[Most of the men were filmed on the cameras of the reporters at the scene! Everyone in a panic! It is estimated that the media will not be able to function properly for the time being!] – Read
The president, who looked at the message silently for a long time, said,
With an expression that soon understood everything,
“Whoa, whoa, whoa.”
I was barely holding back the burst of laughter.
And the manager,
“… Ha ha ha.”
He was just laughing with a puzzled look on his face.
Eventually. The boss can’t stand it
“hahahaha!”
I burst into laughter.
…
……
………
After a while.
The president, who had heard everything about what had happened and the situation so far, had no choice but to burst into laughter again.
“Ha ha ha ha! That, so, ha ha!
This is an idea my son came up with~ You mean this?”
「Yes~ That’s right~」
“hahahaha!”
The president burst into laughter as he slammed the armrest of the sofa.
The boss, who burst into laughter like that, finally calmed down and opened his mouth.
“Hey~ I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve laughed like this, really! Kheuheu, anyway, now it’s our turn, right?”
「Yes. Could you please present as planned? And I will leave it up to the president to choose which media outlet to report on first.”
“Ah, yes. There is a media company that we have a debt to, and at this point, we are going to announce it through that company in order to pay off the debt.”
「And, after the announcement, other media outlets will probably rush to approach you, right?」
Realizing what Yoon-hee meant, the president stroked her chin with a funny expression.
“Yes, of course. Because if we want to normalize quickly, it would be faster to get permission to transmit from our son than to get confirmation from a government agency.”
The president continued with a fishy smile.
“So, the media, who are currently struggling with the suspension of transmission and the destruction of data, will 100% try to approach you. Hey, isn’t this enough power?”
After hearing what the president said, Yoon-hee let out a small laugh and said,
「If it’s not cumbersome, would it be okay if I delegated that to the boss?」
“Huh? You’re giving me such a nice knife? I’m welcome, but will you be okay?”
「Yes, boss, you can use it however you like. Please scold the kids from our agency to the fullest.”
“Cheuk. Yes thank you If you say so, I’ll have to do my cool sword dance. However, I don’t think I can dance as much as expected.”
「Hmm? Why?”
The president spoke with a cool smile.
“You have to look at it properly and release it, because the media will take your side and support you. Is not it?”
The president decided that if he bullied him too much, there would be a lot of resentment on the other side as well.
It was only natural that if such lumps piled up, there would definitely be a backlash, whether small or large.
If that happened, it was obvious that he would eventually turn his back.
In this case, the boss knew that a carrot would be more effective than a stick.
Yoon-hee could fully understand what the president was saying and for some reason.
That’s why Yunhee expressed her gratitude in her sincere voice.
「… Thank you, boss.”
“Well, the kids who seemed a little hateful were going to be released a little late, but I mean. Ha ha.”
The president had said, recalling several media outlets that were harassing his family members.
Yunhee replied as if she didn’t care.
「hehehe, boss, do whatever you want.」
“Yes, I understand. Don’t worry here, eat delicious rice…. Oh, I’ll shoot the rice, so scratch it with the law knife.”
「Really? Thank you, boss. Then, I’ll see you later-“
“Wait a minute.”
At that time, the manager, who had been quietly listening, suddenly intervened in their conversation.
The boss looked at the manager who suddenly intervened with a very strange look.
「Yes? Are you Manager Shin?」
“Mr. Yoon-hee, I’m sorry for interrupting you all of a sudden.”
The manager spoke on his speakerphone, pushing his face closer. The boss was looking at the manager with his face.
「No, it’s okay. Do you have something to say?”
“It’s not different, even if it’s cumbersome, when can you come to the company?”
「Yes? Yes I will.”
“And when you come.”
Hearing Director Shin’s next words, the president opened his eyes wide and couldn’t help but look at Director Shin.
“Can you come with your son?”
「…… What about our son?”
In response to Yoon-hee’s questionable voice, the manager hurriedly answered in a quick voice.
It was as if he was rushing to persuade Yoon-hee before she refused.
“Yes, I mean nothing else. I have to write a few documents due to the suspension of activities, but there are documents that Yoon-hee must refer to. Wouldn’t it be dangerous to leave your son alone when you come to work? It would be safer for your son to be with Yoon-hee. And um… At this point, how about telling and showing the son what the mother is doing? It is said that field trips help children develop their emotions. And-“
The manager’s words poured out for a long time, and when her manager’s words were finished, Yoon-hee had no choice but to answer vaguely in a very ambiguous voice.
「… Uh… hmm… I’ll talk about that with my son.”
“Yes, please.”
「Yes, I understand. Then I’ll see you next time.”
Knock.
When Yoon-hee’s phone hung up like that,
The boss looked at her manager with a sly smile on his face that looked amused.
“Guy, he’s back with his old eyes.”
“… It’s noisy, sister.”
“Cheuk. I’m sure you said something
You’re making a male debut?~ For one of the few male celebrities in the world?~ Please wake up to your dream?~”
“… ….”
The president began to make fun of what the general manager said earlier by copying it in a mean tone.
The manager was gritting his teeth inwardly and was trying hard to ignore the president’s words.
“I don’t want to be filmed in the male part~ I won’t go to hell~”
“…… Stop it.”
“Huh~? What? Can’t you hear the manager’s voice saying that he will not go to hell and go to heaven?~”
In the end, the manager, who could not stand it, raised his voice.
“Ah, stop it, Ok-rye unnie!”
“!! Hey you kid! I told you never to bear that name!”
Ok-rye.
That was the real name of Kim Ye-rim, president of YR Entertainment.
Yerim was both her stage name and her pseudonym.
The names Jira and Okrye, which were so unfashionable for her, were a complex and a struggle that she wanted to hide.
“You bastard! However, there is a line that must not be crossed!”
“Ha, that’s it.”
“What the heck! I’m sorry! You said I shouldn’t even mention that name!”
“Okay, I got it. Anyway, sister.”
The general manager looked at the president with a serious face.
The president also erased his anger and looked straight into the general manager’s eyes with his usual face.
“I wanted this.”
“What do you want?”
The manager talked to the president with a confident face and shining eyes that had never been seen before.
“I will cut this rough stone once.”
“Hey….”
“Huh?”
“I, I… this much… May I go out?”
Until then, the manager who had been silent in the corner,
I appealed to the president.
With a half-crying face.
