Chapter 168 Everyone is here
"Oh, Brother Kangmin, are you talking about investing in NGN?" An Rusong put the phone between his ear and shoulder, took the cigarette on the table with his free hand, lit one for himself, and said nonchalantly, "I have already contacted the company's investors about this matter. Unexpectedly, those Americans are easy to talk to."
Jin Kangmin's voice could not be heard on the phone, only heavy breathing could be vaguely heard. It was obvious that this Mr. Jin was not stupid. Although An Rushong did not finish his words, he already understood what he meant.
"Hello, Brother Kang Min, are you still there?" An Rushong took the phone away, glanced at the screen, and after making sure that the call had not been hung up, he put it to his ear and continued speaking.
"An Rushong, are you kidding me?" Jin Kangmin's voice finally came from the phone again.
"No, Brother Kangmin, why do you say that?" An Rusong turned his head to look at Jiang Xiuyuan and said with a smile, "I just want to tell you that the Americans agree with your investment in principle, but the price of financing and stock exchange must be..."
"~~~"
This time there was really no sound from the phone, not even the heavy breathing from before. An Rusong looked at the phone screen again, and sure enough, the other party had hung up.
Shrugging, An Rusong threw his phone directly on the desk, then took a puff of cigarette and said to Jiang Xiuyuan who was standing beside him: "Let's go, I'll take you home now."
Tomorrow is Saturday and the company has two days off according to regulations, so Jiang Xiuyuan plans to take advantage of the weekend to go home for two days.
Her home is very close to Seoul, in Henan City, and it takes less than an hour to drive there and back - the whole of South Korea is just a tiny place, and it only takes a few hours to travel from south to north. Therefore, in South Korea, the word "go home" is completely different from the Chinese "go home".
When she was still working in the toy factory, Jiang Xiuyuan would go home every week, but at that time she always took the bus back. Since coming to NGN, An Rushong would take her home every weekend.
Originally, An Rushong thought he wouldn't be able to send his lover home tonight. After all, Jin Kangmin had already made an appointment with him, and he couldn't help but save face for the son of this congressman. However, after confirming Congressman Kong's attitude, he naturally didn't bother to flatter this out-of-date young man anymore.
Therefore, in the past, An Rushong always lamented the fickleness of the world and how people looked down on him, but reality proved that he himself was such a person, even worse than ordinary people.
Jiang Xiuyuan moved an ashtray on the table in front of him, pointed at his phone, and said with some concern: "The person opposite seems very unhappy."
An Rusong put out the remaining half of his cigarette in the ashtray, then reached out and pulled her into his arms. Then, while kneading her butt, he smiled and said, "I'm your man, so I have the obligation to make you happy. As for the guy on the phone, he can't let me sleep with him, so why should I make him happy? Why should I care whether he's happy or not?"
After saying that, he looked down at the pants Jiang Xiuyuan was wearing and added, "Don't wear jeans next time. They don't feel good."
Hearing his vulgar and obscene words, Jiang Xiuyuan's face turned red and she slapped him on the chest in an angry manner.
"I see the company is hiring a director for the security department," the two of them stayed in the office for a while before going downstairs together. As they walked out of the office, Jiang Xiuyuan said, "You should also hire two bodyguards for yourself. After seeing what happened to Ning Yue the day before yesterday, I had nightmares for two consecutive nights."
An Rushong knew what she was talking about. It was that a serious case involving minors happened in Ningyue some time ago. The nature of the case was very bad and quite sensational. It was reported on TV and in newspapers for several days in a row.
NGN Company recently received a large amount of financing, and An Rushong became a wealthy man with assets of 2.5 million overnight. So the timid Jiang Xiuyuan began to have wild thoughts, always worrying that he would be kidnapped by bad guys and then killed.
"I know," An Rushong touched her head and responded with a smile.
In fact, without Jiang Xiuyuan's reminder, An Rushong was also preparing to find two bodyguards for himself. He would not be superstitious about the public security in South Korea. Under the extremely strong social pressure, all kinds of lunatics would be born in this country.
However, you can't be too casual about hiring a bodyguard. Otherwise, it will not only fail to protect your own safety, but may also bring you greater crisis.
He took Jiang Xiuyuan downstairs and got into the company's seven-seater Mercedes Benz on the roadside. As soon as An Rushong started the car, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
Instead of answering the call immediately, he drove the car onto the road and then took the phone out of his pocket.
Unexpectedly, the incoming call displayed on the phone screen was from "Jiang Yiyu".
Jiang Yiyu was introduced to him by Nan Xuyu. According to what Director Nan said at the time, he hoped that he would get "close" to this young man.
However, An Rusong did not contact the other party again after that meeting. Firstly, he did not have time to pay attention to him, and secondly, he was afraid of him. After all, Jiang Yiyu belonged to Miss Park's camp. Although Councillor Kong tried to bridge the relationship between Miss Park and Li Minbo, in An Rusong's opinion, his efforts would not have much effect. The best result would be that the two of them would be at odds with each other and barely maintain the situation of not falling out.
This is not An Rushong’s own guess, but something that happened in his previous life.
To be honest, in An Rushong's previous life, if the conservatives had not been so seriously in turmoil, how could a lawyer like Wen have come to power as president?
It is precisely because of this understanding that An Rushong couldn't help feeling apprehensive when considering Jiang Yiyu. He was worried that if he got too close to the other party, it would make Councillor Kong unhappy in the future. The person who suggested that he get closer to Jiang Yiyu was Nan Xuyu, not Councillor Kong himself. God knows if Nan Xuyu would blame him if any problems occurred in the future.
However, although An Rushong would not take the initiative to contact Jiang Yiyu, if the other party contacted him, he would not be able to push him away. Otherwise, if the other party reported the situation to Nan Xuyu, he might be scolded.
Therefore, the struggle of a small person is always difficult, and the higher you go, the more difficult the road becomes. To put it in one sentence, the greater the ambition, the higher the risk. People who want to decide the life and death of others with just one sentence are often walking on a tightrope. The reason why he ignores the life and death of others is because his life is also worthless and may be lost at any time.
After slowing down the car, An Rushong finally answered the call.
"Rushong, did you recognize who I am?" The call was just connected when Jiang Yiyu's voice came from the other end.
"Brother Yi Yu, how could I not recognize your voice?" An Rushong said with a smile, flattering words coming out of his mouth.
"Haha, I'm glad you still remember me," Jiang Yiyu laughed loudly, "If you still remember me, why didn't you contact me for so long? Do you look down on me because you've become rich?"
"Brother Yiyu, you're joking," An Rusong switched the phone to another hand, "Don't say I'm not rich yet. Even if I am rich, I have no right to look down on Brother Yiyu. The reason I haven't contacted you is just because I'm really busy recently. Look, it's already this late, and I'm still on my way to Henan."
"Oh?" Jiang Yiyu asked, "Why, you're not in Seoul?"
"We are still in the city, just on the way," An Rusong said, "What's the matter, Brother Yiyu, is there something wrong?"
"Aren't you coming back tonight?" Jiang Yiyu asked instead of answering.
"Come back," An Rusong looked at his watch and said, "It will probably take about an hour. What's the matter, Brother Yiyu?"
"Ah, I'm here to have some fun with you." Jiang Yiyu smiled when he said he would be back in an hour. "I thought you weren't coming back. Well, then, you go first and we'll wait for you to come back."
"You guys?" An Rushong asked.
"Let's talk about it when you come back," Jiang Yiyu said without explaining, "7:30, I'll contact you at 7:30."
"Okay," the other party refused to say, and An Rushong did not continue to ask. In his opinion, Jiang Yiyu's purpose in looking for him should be similar to Jin Kangmin's, both of them wanted to take advantage of him.
I really don't know where these guys got the nerve to do this. After hearing that DFJ valued NGN at 2.5 million, they also thought about investing in it based on this valuation.
Just like Jin Kangmin, when he made an appointment to meet An Rushong, he said at the outset that he wanted to invest 2500 million US dollars and take % of NGN's shares from An Rushong.
This request seems fair, after all, DFJ's valuation is so high. But the problem is that they don't think about whether DFJ only invested 5000 million in NGN in this transaction or not. They also need to provide resources to NGN.
For example, if DFJ had not taken the lead, how would An Rusong have connected with Apple? Another example is that NGN will also cooperate with Google in the future, which also requires the use of DFJ's resources.
The reason why An Rushong accepted the investment from DFJ was because DFJ could become his business partner; the reason why he accepted the investment from Han Miyeon was because she could provide him with physical pleasure; and what can guys like Jin Kangmin do for An Rushong and NGN?
There is no doubt that they can't do anything except come in to get a share of the pie. Why should An Rushong accept them in?
Before, he was able to reject Jin Kangmin, and later he would naturally be able to reject Jiang Yiyu. On this matter, his position was very firm.
