What An Rusong said was not just random talk. It was completely in line with business logic. Most importantly, in his previous life, there were examples to prove it. For example, LeTV, which was once on the verge of bankruptcy, didn't it rely on the massive copyrights and patents it had accumulated to get back from the brink of bankruptcy bit by bit?

What is South Korea's national policy? Isn't it the so-called "culture-based country"? Since it is a "culture-based country", how can it not pay attention to the copyright of movies, TV shows and variety shows that represent culture? If the government does not even pay attention to copyright issues, how can culture be a country?

Therefore, even though An Rushong didn't know much about Korean Internet copyrights in his previous life, he could imagine that in the near future, the Korean government would definitely strictly regulate the Internet copyrights of film and television works. With this premise in place, purchasing these copyrights in advance would definitely be an extremely wise investment.

Just now, when An Rushong was talking about the conditions given by Cui Shizhong, he acted as if he had suffered a great loss. In fact, he was being "Versailles". Although he needed to invest 12 billion won in real money in Cui Shizhong's grandson, the benefits he got from the other party were definitely not something that could be bought back with 12 billion won.

What did Cui Shizhong give him? Was it the report on the table?
Of course, things are not that simple. First of all, this report itself is a piece of information worth a fortune. If the information in this report is known by someone like An Rusong, then the other party will definitely be like An Rusong, rushing to buy various film and television copyrights before the content of the report is released. Every penny invested at this time will be rewarded hundreds or thousands of times in the future.

Secondly, Cui Shizhong not only gave him such information, but also helped him in the subsequent acquisition of film and television copyrights. After all, the other party was the first chairman of the "Communications Commission". Even though this agency had just been established and there were many voices of opposition in various TV stations, it was certain that in addition to those voices of opposition, there were definitely a lot of voices supporting him and President Lee Min-bo.

Take KBS TV station for example. Although people like Zheng Yuanzhu and Li Yuanjun have worked in the TV station for more than ten years and have many friends and relatives, there are definitely people in the TV station who dislike them or even have an opposing relationship with them. These people are the natural supporters of the "KBS" and are the people that the committee must focus on winning over in the early stages of its work.

Through the previous conversation with Cui Shizhong, An Rusong knew that this corrupt old man was not a simple character. If nothing unexpected happened, after the old man took office, he would definitely purge the presidents and major vice presidents of the two TV stations, KBS and MBC, as soon as possible.

An Rushong didn’t care how big the subsequent internal turmoil at these TV stations would be. He only knew that by that time, the people Han Meiyan would need to negotiate with would no longer be those monsters and demons they have now, but “their own people” in a sense.

Since they are our own people, are those insignificant online copyrights of films and TV series worth paying too much attention to?
Furthermore, as the first chairman of the "Communications Commission", Choi Shi-jung certainly has a say in the formulation of new regulations for copyright protection of film and television works. He may not be able to veto the promulgation of the new regulations, but a slight delay should not be a problem. And this period of time is really golden time for An Rusong and Han Mi-yeon.

With these three points in mind, how could An Rusong care about the mere investment of 12 billion won? It was just a drizzle.

"As long as I don't suffer any loss, it's fine." Bai Jinjun understood what An Rusong meant, and a smile appeared on his face. He picked up the champagne again, gestured to An Rusong, brought it to his lips and took a sip, then said, "Mr. Cui is still very principled. Since he promised to do something, he will definitely do it. There is no need to worry about this."

Although An Rusong did not elaborate on the content of his transaction with Cui Shizhong, Bai Jinjun could estimate it almost accurately based on his guesswork. However, as a politician who came from a businessman background, Bai Jinjun did not have any negative views on this behavior that was obviously a power-for-money transaction and a secret operation. After all, capitalism, if power and money cannot be traded, how can it be considered capitalism?

What's more, the two people who are now engaging in power-for-money transactions are both family members, family members... If we can't even engage in a power-for-money transaction, how can we become family members from strangers?
However, although this is the case, there are some issues that Bai Jinjun still needs to remind his "little brother". He transferred the champagne to his other hand, straightened his expression, and said: "However, when you come into contact with Mr. Cui, you'd better be more vigilant. It's not about anything else, but mainly because Mr. Cui is over 70 years old. Although he is in good health, his age is there, which always makes people..."

"You know what I mean," he said without saying anything, and changed the subject. "We are still young, and we have a long time to live in the future, so we still have to avoid some issues that Mr. Cui can ignore. Haha, after all, Mr. Qingxi's presidential term is only five years, and according to the constitution of our Republic of Korea, the president cannot seek a second term."

After saying this, he reached out and patted An Rushong on the shoulder.

An Rusong naturally understood what the other party meant in a second. He smiled and nodded at the other party, saying, "Don't worry, Brother Jin Jun, I know what to do."

With his hand on An Rusong's shoulder, Bai Jinjun stood up from his chair. He first glanced at the garden outside the terrace, then looked up at the dark, starless night sky. Then he turned around and said, "Okay, I think some people are leaving now. I'll go and greet them."

"Okay, Brother Jin Jun," An Rushong nodded in response, then watched the other party walk towards the inside of the terrace.

Watching the other person's back disappear into the white glass door of the terrace, An Rushong raised his right hand and scratched the left sideburn with his index finger.

Bai Jinjun's last words to him just now were really on point. He didn't know if the other party was drunk or had good intentions, but no matter what the reason was, he could say these words, and An Rusong had to be grateful to him. What did Bai Jinjun mean by that? When talking about Cui Shizhong, he meant that the old guy was very old and might die one day. If nothing else, when Li Minbo's five-year term ended, he would be seventy-six years old, and it was unclear whether the old guy could live to see that day. Therefore, the old man could be greedy without any scruples and put down his face. Even if the matter was exposed in the future, he was not afraid of going to jail.

But An Rushong is different, he is still young, and his career is on the rise, so Bai Jinjun is reminding him to be more cautious and not to do the same as Cui Shizhong.

When talking about Li Minbo, his meaning was even clearer. Li Minbo could only be president for five years. During these five years, they might be able to get protection from Li Minbo and not have to worry about anything else. But what about after Li Minbo leaves office? Who would be able to protect them at that time?

Therefore, Bai Jinjun was telling An Rushong clearly that he should be prepared for danger in times of peace and take advantage of the five years that Li Minbo was in office to not only seek development but also seek a way out.

To be honest, An Rusong knew the two points that Bai Jinjun reminded him of. Not only did he know them, he had even started to make plans for his escape route. But even so, he still had to thank Bai Jinjun for his good advice.

The celebratory dinner did not last long. When An Rushong came out of the villa, it was not yet nine o'clock in the evening.

Under the cover of night, a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle was driving on a road illuminated by street lights, heading towards Jiangnan District.

"Have you eaten?" An Rushong lit a cigarette for himself, lowered the car window a little, and then said to Luo Minzhi who was driving.

"I've eaten," Luo Minzhi replied without turning around, concentrating on driving. "The food was very rich."

An Rusong nodded. Usually, at such dinners, special lounges and restaurants would be arranged for drivers or secretaries. The reason why he asked more questions was that he wanted to bring up the following topic: "Okay, take me to Lotte World Tower first. Wait for me there for a while. I'll be down soon."

Every time he said he was going to Lotte World Tower, he was actually going to Han Mi-yeon's place, and he would stay there for a longer time each time.

However, today's situation was an exception. An Rushong really had something to talk to Han Miyeon about, and it was not for any other sexual matters. Well, the reason for this was certainly not because he had become a clean-minded person, but because he had spent too much energy on the sisters Yuan He and Yuan Ya in the afternoon and had not recovered yet.

It is not far from Bai Jinjun's villa to Gangnam District. It only takes about twenty minutes for the Mercedes-Benz business car to drive into the underground parking lot of Lotte World Tower.

Luo Minzhi drove the car to the elevator door of Han Miyeon's house with ease. When the car stopped, he looked at his watch.

An Rushong pushed the door and got out of the car. While making a phone call, he walked to the elevator door and pressed the elevator button.

Just as the elevator door dinged open, the phone in his hand was connected, and Han Miyan's lazy voice came from inside: "Hello, dear, do you have any good news to tell me?"

"I'm just downstairs at your building, waiting for the elevator. Is this good news?" An Rushong said with a smile as he walked into the elevator.

"Ha, of course it's good news," Han Meiyan said with a smile. She was a smart woman. It was easy to guess that An Rushong came so late, he must have some important information to bring her.
