Chapter 697: Forces Lurking in the Shadows-4
" If you are unwilling to do it then transfer my shares. I am confident if we can secure this deal, with their support we will be able to rise to different height in couple of years!" Jung seemed extra confident about it for some reason.
" Do you even know what you are talking about? If they have bad intentions, we won't be able to hold managing rights to run the company." He yelled out scolding his son. Was he too trusting of him up at this point? Was it even a good idea to hand over the company to him? His head began filling up with doubt as he began to question everything.
" Father, sometimes you have to trust your judgement. Firstly, they are a rival of LVHM competing with them on global stage. No one would question our decision once it goes public. Secondly, the board would happy agree to it since the evaluation of the company will reach a billion dollars. We could simply buy their shares if want.
Our stagnant shares are bound to rise after this news." Jung didn't want to back down and began explaining everything.
" And the last reason is we will be able to do something about those two bands leaving the company. It will take couple of months but after their popularity dies down, they wouldn't be able to do anything. We can simply push our other idol groups heavily under this pretext pressing down the hype created by that music video.
They are already so much in debt and since they couldn't use their viral songs or the band's names, there is little chance for them to make a comeback by then people would have moved on!"
His father began to question if he truly was his son. When did Jung who was famous for being a lout, began thinking so analytically that even he was moved by his words. Even if he let the tiger in who could have bad intentions, there was no chance it could thrash around after being swarmed by numbers.
They were relatively new in asian market, especially in entertainment circles. Wouldn't that mean he could leverage his new connections to finally spread his wings overseas? The more he thought about it the better the deal get. Just the strong evaluation news would be a big sensation in South Korea.
" What do you think? I can arrange a meeting if you want." Jung could see his father expression soften. He had been slaving away for weeks now trying to find a solution for his mistake but who would have known that it would easily fall on his lap! He could go back to his party days of running out picking up girls if he could convince his father. As well as gain a necessary foothold in succession race!
His father looked at the papers again and stared at the company's logo," Armani, Georgio Armani..." The half black eagle with horizontal stripes running along it began to look appealing.

While SK were counting their options, Park was gearing the whole building with the latest tech that he could find. There was something about having an unlimited budget, the shopping was on another level.
He had to furnish every complex as well as take care of other business that were leasing the lower floors. To keep the noise at minimum, he spent big bucks to invest in latest soundproof technology. Right now, he was helping move in another family to their new home.
" Is it fine? I mean, everything looks around here." It was Siwon's mother, she didn't believe when she heard when her son suddenly asked her for money. Being a single mother providing for her son as well as her in law back in the village, it wasn't easy for her to save money.
" It's fine ma'am. This is just the start, after they make their debut under our company they would get much more amenities." Park said respectfully. He especially favored Siwon because he had a long career ahead of him as well as his talents were extraordinary.
" That's good and all but are you sure we don't have to pay rent here. You still haven't told me who you boss is too. It's not a scam right?" She said while folding her arms. Who wouldn't find it suspicious when they were literally handed down such expensive things without any condition?
" Yes ma'am. Don't worry about it. When he visit I will be sure to introduce you to him." Park kept rubbing his hands like a sly businessman which didn't help his case.
She decided to trust him since she let one of her friends who was a lawyer go through the whole contract to find any hidden clauses. She wasn't able to find anything couple with the fact her son spoke highly of this hidden boss, she decided to go along with it for now. Your journey continues at m v|l-e'm,p| y r
He excused himself after few more flowery words. It was hard for him to let them accept that it was what his boss wished for. Samuel's instructions were clear, just build a good base of operation and provide ample support for the band member without any conditions.
He had already began making a move from the shadows but what he needed was the members to be in tiptop condition without worrying about these things so that they could solely focus on making music.
He didn't gave them a timeline so they were free to do what they liked granted they stayed out of public eye for few months. Park went upstairs to see what the people were doing. He hired a fleet of people like dance instructors, composers etc and made them sign NDA's to assist for everyone's development.
He was pleased to see them working hard, even Yoona who was shaken was now giving her all. They did need to come up with some names but there was no hurry. Park could see the chances in their demeanor, they wanted to reach the pinnacle which won't be easy but for some reason he trusted Samuel's judgement.
Even the trainee that he was incharge of earlier trained with them honing their skills. If everything went according to plan, they would have four different bands debuting on big stage in couple of years!
