< The Emperor's Return >

"Ms. Grant, the meeting is ready."

"Really?"

A beautiful new secretary tells me that the executives are gathering. I smiled a little, but I really liked the answer with a grinning smile.

Standing up at his feet, Lachlan looks out the window at the skyscrapers of New York and moves around lightly, then slowly steps into the conference room across the hall.

Loud, loud,

.....

Lachlan feels better when she sees a quiet conference room as she walks in. And in the executives' eyes, a cautious atmosphere remains.

"Anybody missing today?"

"Nothing. Are there any executives who will miss your meeting?" Let's wrap these guys up this time. "

"What are you saying? Even so!"

On the verdict of Vice President Sher, who presumes to be on Lachlan's side, an executive sitting across from him protests. Later, he looks at Lachlan and shuts up in a hurry.

"Heheh. I missed the taste. '

Lachlan smiles on her own as she looks around the large meeting table at about 20 executives. Those who see themselves. Some of them are now commissioned by James, the nobleman, now sworn allegiance to Lachlan.

The return of the Crown Prince!

People were talking about the return of Lachlan to Australia when he was president of New York headquarters. One thing that is unusual is not the return of 'the prince’, but the return of ’the prince'.

Neither was James Murdoch formally appointed heir when Lachlan was president, nor was James Murdoch subsequently president of Lachlan. As Lachlan returned, however, Rupert Murdoch, the Emperor of Newcombe, formally appointed Lachlan his successor. This wave is accompanied by the word 'Crown Prince’.

This is Lachlan Murdock from Australia. His brother, James, who stepped down, showed quite good practice and even earned the nickname "The Second Murdock." I didn't tell anyone, but I was jealous of his success.

James is just a year older than his older brother. James was rated better than his brother in many ways, but even his appearance was more sophisticated and sharp, and Lachlan was secretly qualified.

Everything's a little worse than your brother.

My brother took away even the position he was given as a lack of ability.

I feel bolder because I don't want to see this assessment and awareness, but Lachlan's heart burns inside. I was angry, and I wanted to win, and I wanted to be recognized.

Lachlan recalls the first time he was appointed vice president by his father. I felt like I had the whole world, and I was moved. However, when I came down from there, I was devastated.

At that time, there were no survivors and executives left when they returned more than three years later. And those who came in there, either by James or when James was president, were looking up at themselves with the "fear."

Lachlan was very cheerful.

A friend named Vice President of Fox TV, who had attended several meetings to meet his father, roasted as if he were his servant. It made me feel proud to try to fit in somehow, despite my harsh instructions.

Behind the return of the Crown Prince, the wizards are also included. With Lachlan's return, the first task was a primary ‘waterslide’. Especially the executives who were hanging around under James. To commemorate your return.

I couldn't stop my father, as long as he named himself the official successor. I blew up five or six of my officers in one blow, and the rest of them acted on their own. And where it looked like that, we summoned the long side of Lachlan and those who had previously been driven out of loyalty.

Now sitting on his right hand side, Sherlock was also pushed out with him. I was cut first by James because I had been supporting myself since I was relatively young, and then I was executive at another station until recently.

She immediately resigned to Lachlan's call, and as vice president, she closed her eyes to some harsh remarks at the executive meeting. Maybe Lachlan wants to say the same thing, but she's feeling a surrogate because she can't because she's face-to-face.

"Quiet, everyone! Now that we seem to have some peace of mind, let's continue to have constructive conversations. how we can make Newcombe better."

"Yes, boss!!"

The officers sitting there answer loudly with no one in mind. Maybe they're all pledging allegiance and answering louder. Lachlan nods, feeling very good.

“I think newscobs have potential. Although it's been shaken by the absence of leadership over the past few years, it's different now. From now on, I'm going to start investing heavily in film and broadcast markets, not adapting to the changes to the digital age, but taking over the influential magazines and newspapers in their own right."

Lachlan emphasized in ‘leadership’ that the former leader had screwed the company, but I was different.

This meeting is like the first meeting of the entire newscorps, officially held after Lachlan's return. It was significant because no one had ever "summoned" a former affiliate other than Rupert Murdock. Of course, he announced his new vision and ambitious plan. Lachlan feels proud of herself.

"Hey, boss."

While everyone is paying respect to their presentation, a shy executive raises his hand carefully. Vice President of Finance.

"What? Why are you raising your hands? They're not children. Just say it."

I gave him a slight chance to say it because I had no idea what he was going to say. But that doesn't make Lachlan angry. There is just a little regret that it would be better if it was unanimous.

"With all due respect, this year's deficit is $2 billion, with the exception of one-time restructuring costs. Over the years, cash assets have steadily declined…"

Lachlan looks at his awareness and carefully looks at the VP of Finance. It's blurry to say if you were pressured by the Force. However, there is no fool who does not guess the next word here.

Red lights appear on financial statements of all affiliates, including FoxTV and 21st century Fox Corporation magazines and newspapers. In the meantime, most of the executives were against Lachlan's declaration of aggressive management. Lachlan also suggests that he's noticed this atmosphere.

"The key sectors of Newcombe's businesses have a solid foundation. It was the first time last year that Fox TV and film companies and newspapers had seen less. It doesn't have to be as negative as you think, whether it's an economic crisis or something else."

Some nod in Lachlan's explanation. There are many executives who grew up in the sector for as little as 15 to 20 years. It's a magazine and a publishing market, but the broadcasting and filming side hasn't been getting much worse lately.

"Who am I? I'm not talking nonsense. I've already decided to get two billion dollars' worth of investment. And the Johnstone cables that we've been competing with will have Fox Channels."

"Yes? Two billion dollars invested?"

"Our broadcast on the Johnstone cable? “

“Phew, I'm amazed that you're bringing in two billion dollars. The boss is different."

The executives present at the meeting are surprised, arguing ahead, asking questions or praising. It is surprising to be invested two billion dollars in this difficult economic situation. even when there's two billion dollars left in the last two years.

And he also partnered with a cable company in the Johnston group, which was an avid member of the media industry and secretly controlled the newscobs.

Officers didn't think Lachlan was lying, but they just grumbled because they couldn't believe it easily. Only a few of Lachlan's closest executives smile. Because I've heard things.

"Ms. Grant, by the way, would your partnership with the Johnstone cables be okay? Don't Johnstones usually have a mean side to them?"

"I beg your pardon?"

I think about something else while enjoying the feeling of pride, but I hear something bothering me. He raised his voice in a hurry, but the executive who didn't notice the atmosphere continued to say what he wanted to say.

"Not only the Johnstone cables, but also the Johnstone Entertainment Operation. Even in the movies and broadcasting business, there was a big hit because of that, but believing in such people is a bit of a problem."

"Wait, that's it!!"

Lachlan quickly stops speaking, noticing what went wrong. And I unknowingly realized myself looking around the windows and surroundings.

'The walls have ears, no, not just walls.'

There is a saying in the English proverb that there are ears on the walls, but Lachlan does not only have ears on the walls, but also the eyes and ears on the sky and the earth, everywhere. I experienced it this time. When I think about it, I am stunned.

After returning to Newcombat, Lachlan has been actively scratching the itch by working closely with Chief Crimson of Johnston Group.

Why did you work so hard? It was because he realized the ability of his father, John Kim, to move Rupert Murdock.

Never make enemies.

Even a father who hardly knows fear is the one who shakes his head. I have already experienced a life in Australia and decided to come back and have a more active and active life for the pleasure of power.

One day, I received a special invitation to the headquarters of Johnston Group to make sure that this effort was not in vain. And there were two people who were actually moving around the country, Ethan, the Deputy Director of Homeland Security and Edward.

The surprise began when John Kim appeared in the conference room. The two contenders act like Chairman John Kim's men!

It was so natural. Vice President Edward and Director Eaton, who were acting like they didn't feel what they were doing, were so naturally having Chairman John Kim as their mastermind.

Lachlan is proud, but not foolish enough to be unaware of his position. Of course, I did not think I was better than the current vice president of the regime and the national security director, so I looked even more frightened of John Kim.

But that was just the beginning of a surprise. Soon after, it was John Morgan who stood up and criticized him.

This fellow, too, seemed to hate Chairman John Kim like the old self. John Kim smiles as he calls out for something before John Morgan walks in.

One video. John Kim showed Morgan something for free when he came in. At first, a "crazy" satellite appeared that said 40% of the Earth could be observed, but after hearing the explanation, I realized that it was true. I can't believe the world has evolved to this extent.

That's not all. What's alarming is that the sniper caught in the act was spotted by the Johnstone intelligence team. And even the man who gives the instructions, giving the money to the shooter, Ishmael, is in the video.

John Kim laughed at it. Idiots have changed times, and they're still trying to fool themselves into keeping secrets.

[Maybe the characters out there don't know that they're the main actors in this video? "]

That last one. The words gave me goose bumps. The two characters that really appeared in the video would have never even dreamed of it. They're being recorded like a movie.

[Wait!]

As expected, Morgan finally declares his surrender in an unbearable manner. And the people sitting there nodded their heads. It was because I could guess what happened when I watched the video.

Lachlan has compassion for Morgan. It's because I remember being kicked out of Australia when I confronted John Kim.

'Dammit... how do you beat someone like that?'

I realized one thing because of this incident. It was that anyone who confronted John Kim would be devastated.

Frankly, I was worried when I first started criticizing Rockefeller and Morgan for Chief Crimson's request. It was because I wanted to hurt the opponent too much for no reason. But now I feel sorry for them.

Why? Lachlan knows how important information is these days. This side knows how many times an enemy goes to the bathroom a day. What are we up against? This is the result of almost fighting. Moreover, Morgan has surrendered, which is your number two.

Is anyone pressing charges against Johnston Group? You're gathering illegal information? Of course, very few people know it because they know it, and I know that it's useless to try to convince anyone if they do.

Subsidiaries of the Johnstone Group already supply security systems to the government, and there may be many sectors that have legitimate 'non-disclosure' principles due to their involvement in various defense and confidential businesses. To dig into that, you have to step out of Congress and the government, which is 100 percent impossible in this situation.

It's none of my business...

In a way, it was a scary experience, but not bad. It was because he realized that he was safe with such a terrifying being.

Rather, he later received the privilege of receiving $2 billion in funding. John Kim has been negative for more than necessary expansion in publicly available areas, particularly in the media. Rather, he wanted to have a partnership with newscobb led by Lachlan.

There's nothing wrong with Lachlan if Johnston's group goes first in the media and NewsCobb goes second. It is because we still have a long way to go to achieve second place in the world.

Of course, the $2 billion was supported by companies in Eastern and Eastern Europe under the influence of the Johnstone Group and agreed to give them appropriate equity. However, many conditions were not bad. Moreover, it is Lachlan who knows too well the fears of Chairman John Kim to resist anyway.

Artwork Reviews

James Murdock and Lachlan Murdock. James Murdock looks better in many ways, including his looks. He was actually rated "The Second Murdock."

When I write, I imagine Lachlan Murdoch handed her over to her brother and went to Australia, it crossed my mind. I'm guessing there's been a lot of split executives there.

There are quite a few things in America that can be legally covered up as "secret." As mentioned before, we don't even need to disclose government grants.

The data from the Kennedy assassination was also "national interest" (?) 'Fifty years in advance, and in the many controversies over the past 1992, the United States Congress has enacted the Kennedy Assassination Disclosure Act' to release relevant data until 2017.

I wonder how much disclosure, but given the practice of not disclosing confidential information to the public, what is the reality of the Johnstone Group (?) is almost impossible... right?
