Chapter 325 Hidden dangers

Chapter 325 Hidden dangers
After An Rushong got in the car, Luo Minzhi drove the car to the side of the road and parked it in a temporary parking space.

It didn't take too long, maybe about twenty minutes at most, before Bai Jinjun and his group walked out of the restaurant. Bai Jinjun was in front and Zheng Lujun followed behind with his back half bent. The word flattery was almost written on his face, while the former always had a calm expression.

The two of them talked for a while in front of the restaurant. After Yu Yuanlong drove the car over, Zheng Lujun took the initiative to go over and open the car door, apparently to see Bai Jinjun off to the car.

However, the latter did not get into the car directly. He glanced at An Rushong's Mercedes-Benz, then said something to Zheng Lujun, and then walked straight to the side of the road.

Seeing Bai Jinjun walking towards him, An Rushong knew what was going on. He pushed the door open and got out of the car, then walked towards the other party.

"Hey, Rushong," Zheng Lujun walked a few steps quickly to greet An Rushong when he saw him getting off the car, and said with a look of complaint, "I said I was the host today, why did you pay the bill instead? This..."

"I received a generous gift from Brother Lujun today, so I should show some appreciation," An Rusong said with a smile, "Besides, it's just a lunch, and I still feel bad about it."

"Hey, there's no such thing as a generous gift," Zheng Lujun held his hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "It should be said that you helped me."

After a pause, he continued, "Let's put it this way. Forget about it today. Next time, I must be the host."

"Of course, of course," An Rushong said with a smile, following his tone.

"Okay, don't be polite," Bai Jinjun interrupted the two people's polite conversation and said, "Let's go, Rusong, I'll take your car. It's just right. I have something to explain to you."

An Rushong gave Zheng Lujun a look, then turned and made a gesture of invitation to Bai Jinjun.

The two said goodbye to Zheng Lujun and got into An Rushong's Mercedes-Benz business car.

"This guy is a sly old bastard," Zheng Lujun still stood by the roadside and waved at them from a distance when the car started moving. Bai Jinjun turned his head and looked after Yu Yuanlong after the car drove out for more than ten meters. He then smiled and said to An Rusong, "Kaze-Ji!"

The so-called "wind-seeing chicken" is a weather vane placed on the roof, but it is made in the shape of a chicken, referring to people who have no stance and change with the wind.

An Rushong is a smart person. In addition, during the time he spent with Bai Jinjun, he also had some understanding of the other's character. Therefore, when he heard the word "Kazaki", he understood what the other party meant.

Obviously, in Bai Jinjun's eyes, Zheng Lujun is the kind of guy who has no stance and changes his mind according to the situation. Although such a person is disgusting, he can neither be trusted nor be entrusted with important tasks, but the threat he can bring is also not great. In short, he is the kind of person who does not need to be given too much attention.

An Rusong did not comment on Bai Jinjun's opinion, but he knew that even if Li Minbo came to power and cleaned up various departments, Zheng Lujun would probably be fine. On the one hand, this was because he had "no stance", and on the other hand, it might be because Li Minbo could not pay attention to a character like Zheng Lujun in the short term.

What does it mean that "one person's success brings prosperity to the whole family"? Cases like Bai Jinjun's are a true reflection of this saying.

Take someone like Zheng Lujun for example. The institution and department he works for don't seem to be that important. At least, as the president, Lee Min-bo will not pay too much attention to him. It can even be said that during Lee Min-bo's several years as president, the focus of his work will not even touch the institution where Zheng Lujun works.

The places that Li Minbo cannot pay attention to will naturally be paid attention to by those around him, such as Bai Jinjun. In other words, the one who really controls people like Zheng Lujun is not Li Minbo himself, but some people around him, or in other words, a profit group with Li Minbo as the core.

This is like a tree root structure. Li Minbo's core concern is the main vein of the root. As for those secondary roots, they are the benefits that can be distributed to the entire group. The "Zheng Lujun" on the forked roots are the ones who provide nutrients for the "Baek Jinjun".

Just like An Rushong, if he was not in Bai Jinjun's interest camp, how could the order in Zheng Lujun's hands fall on him, even though the order was "not big" and the benefits were "not" lucrative enough.

"The order that Commissioner Zheng just mentioned." An Rushong said tentatively from the side.

Bai Jinjun did not answer his question. Instead, he leaned back in his chair, took a long breath, and said, "Mr. Qingxi mentioned before that this year's foreign aid will increase by about 7.9% on the basis of last year, and the total amount of funding will exceed 7.9 million US dollars." "This money must be given," he raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, and then said, "No matter who takes over the Blue House, it will not change, so compared with the million US dollars in funding, this order is nothing."

An Rusong felt a little curious. From what the other party said, it seemed that South Korea still had to pay out the money for foreign aid, whether it was the conservatives or the progressives. Why was that? Was there any mystery in it? He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Bai Jinjun changed the subject first.

He took out an envelope from the inner pocket of his suit, handed it to An Rusong, and said, "The previous two press releases worked well. This one is a follow-up to the press release on the Chongli Gate fire. Let's continue with it."

"Okay," An Rushong took the envelope and nodded without hesitation.

"It will be fine after this period of time," Bai Jinjun patted his shoulder and said, "Recently, Mr. Qingxi's relationship with KBS and MBC has become a little tense. Those investigative reporters who talk nonsense all day long are really a headache. Why does the Republic of Korea allow these people to exist?"

"Is it because of the candidacy of Nan Zhuhong?" An Rushong asked tentatively.

Lee Min-bo's road to the presidency was full of twists and turns. He had previously fought against the progressives and the lineage of Miss Park in the Grand National Party. He finally won both battles and the overall situation was decided. He was just waiting to move into the Blue House. But at this moment, the two major TV stations in South Korea rushed out like crazy to cause trouble for him.

Previously, through the news pop-up window of NGN software, Li Minbo’s regime takeover committee had just exposed the list of names in a covert manner, and KBS’s news investigation report column gave Li Minbo a heavy blow.

In Lee Min-bok's takeover committee, there is a ministerial candidate named Nam Joo-hong, who is a staunch supporter of Lee Min-bok's faction within the Grand National Party and a current member of parliament. According to the press release pushed by NGN News pop-up window, this person will serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Korea after Lee Min-bok enters the Blue House.

But just after the news was confirmed, KBS TV station made a special news investigation program, which not only exposed the scandal of Minami Takehiro embezzling public funds to speculate in real estate, but also exposed the scandal of Minami Takehiro's wife evading taxes and defaulting on taxes.

This incident has caused a lot of controversy in the past two days, and the progressive faction is also using this incident to throw dirty water on Li Minbo. Although he was not clean to begin with, this scandal is so ugly that it will inevitably make his "Power Takeover Committee" lose all face.

The point is that this scandal is not only being pursued by KBS, but MBC is also following up. To be honest, if An Rusong said that these two TV stations did not make a deal with anyone, he would not believe it. Under such circumstances, the relationship between Li Minbo and the two TV stations will naturally become tense.

But then again, the reason why An Rushong asked this question was not because he cared about Li Minbo, he was simply curious.

Since his rebirth, he has been used to the stench of the Korean political circle. He has long been accustomed to those dirty things. What does Lee Min-bo's life and death have to do with him? His idea is just to cling to the thigh of the current president. As for who will be the president, haha, does it matter?

Bai Jinjun didn't say anything, but nodded silently. Then, he reached out and patted An Rusong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hold on for a while, the sky will clear up soon."

"What should we do about Nan Zhuhong's candidacy?" An Rushong thought about it and asked again.

"Mr. Qingxi has an appointment with Zheng Yuanzhu for dinner tonight," Bai Jinjun said, "We will have to wait until after tonight to find out the details."

Zheng Yuanzhu is the current president of KBS TV station. Li Minbo invited him to dinner, which must be to put pressure on him and ask KBS TV station to remain silent on the matter involving Congressman Nam Joo-hong. The public is forgetful. Although Nam Joo-hong's scandal is a big deal, as long as the media stops reporting it, I believe that in just two days, no one will pay attention to it anymore.

However, Zheng Yuanzhu has been in charge of KBS for so many years, and it is well known that this guy is not so easy to talk to, and Li Minbo may not be able to convince him.

If the two sides cannot reach an agreement, then we will have to wait and see what happens next.

When President Roh first came to power, KBS caught him in the act and ridiculed him. In the end, he said: After he takes office as president, he will never call the prosecutor's office or the TV station. The implication of his words is that as president, he will not interfere with the fairness of the judiciary and the news.

As for now, haha, An Rushong believes that Mr. Li Minbo, who has the eyes of an eagle and the back of a wolf, is not as easy to talk to as President Lu.
