Chapter 6: Brother Zhong Guo
As Mark said, Jin Jingcheng is still a graduate student, and Jose and Tony's doubts are not unreasonable, where did Jin Jingcheng get the funds?
Although Jin Jingcheng is very talented, he will not have much money because of this, after all, no matter how talented he is, he is still a student, although such high-talent students are rare, there are some of them in so many famous universities in the United States.
It is undeniable that Jin Jingcheng can get a scholarship at New York University every year with his outstanding academic performance, but the money can only cover his living expenses and related study expenses at most, and there is no surplus at all.
All of Jin Jingcheng's current savings are in a black cloth bag on the bed, about 20,000 US dollars.
Speaking of 20,000 US dollars, we have to talk about Jin Jingcheng's family first.
When it comes to this family, we have to talk about one person, and that is Kim Jong Kook.
In his previous life, Jin Jingcheng, who liked and even was a little obsessed with Korean entertainment, naturally had some understanding of Kim Jong Kook, which can be summarized simply, Kim Jong Kook is definitely a rare evergreen tree in the Korean entertainment industry, a person with excellent ability in many aspects, and a rare excellent artist who has experienced strong winds and waves but can always maintain self-discipline and prudence.
It is not easy to simply summarize the journey of a star, and Kim Jong Kook's journey can be simply summarized in three heydays.
The first heyday was around 1995. At this time, Kim Jong Kook was still a member of the two-member boy group Turbo, and he was also a core member, with a number of energetic dance music, he went hand in hand with South Korea's hoT, nRg and other boy groups at that time.
The second heyday was around 2005. At this time, Kim Jong Kook has become the most outstanding lyric singer after flying solo with a song "A Man", and won the song awards of South Korea's three major TV stations (sBs, KBs, mBc) with his third album "This-Is-me", becoming South Korea's second triple crown champion after Cho Yong-pil.
The third heyday was around 2015. At this time, Kim Jong Kook, with his image as a capable person in the popular variety show "Running-man", has caused a sensation in the whole of Asia, especially in China, attracting many fans.
has been in the entertainment industry for 20 years, and it is a heyday as soon as it debuts, and then it has a heyday every ten years, which is really peculiar.
This is just a simple summary, if you talk about it in detail, the man Kim Jong Kook is really a bit legendary.
As far as Kim Jingcheng is concerned, in his previous life, he was addicted to Korean entertainment and liked many stars, but there are only a handful of male stars, and Kim Jong Kook is definitely one of them, and it can even be said that he has had some impact on his life.
Kim Kyung-sung never thought that one day he would become Kim Jong-kook's younger brother.
And now, in his reborn life, this has been achieved.
Yes, "that Kim Jingcheng" is Kim Jong Kook's younger brother, not a brother, but equivalent to a brother, because since he was eight years old, he was adopted by Kim Jong Kook's family.
Now Jin Jingcheng, the 20,000 US dollars around him is the living expenses remitted by Kim Jong Kook's family in recent years, mainly by Kim Jong Kook himself. Kim Jong-kook's father was a somewhat old-fashioned army officer with little savings, and his mother was a housewife.
"That Jin Jingcheng" used the scholarship as his living expenses, and he was reluctant to use the money remitted by his brother Jin Zhongguo, so he saved it, although each remittance was not much, and now the total amount is 20,000 US dollars.
Right now, the 20,000 US dollars were taken out by Jin Jingcheng and placed in a black cloth bag on the bed.
However, the $20,000 is too little compared to Jin Jingcheng's Facebook plan, although Jin Jingcheng only wants to get an initial investment fee for the time being, and $20,000 is not enough.
Jin Jingcheng was hesitating, he wanted to ask Kim Jong Kook to borrow money, and at present, it seemed that only Kim Jong Kook, his brother, could help him.
If it was "that Jin Chengcheng", he would definitely not take the initiative to open this mouth, but now Jin Jingcheng is different, although he will be ashamed of this, but he will not be discouraged, the main thing is that he is sure that this money is not borrowed for nothing, and it will definitely be returned in the future, and with his character, once it is returned, it will definitely be many times.
So, after a short hesitation, Kim Jingcheng dialed Kim Jong Kook's phone.
"Hey, is it happening?"
Jin Zhongguo's voice came from the other end of the phone, although Jin Jingcheng was very familiar with this man's voice in his previous life, and "that Jin Jingcheng" left a lot of memories in this life, and when he heard it at this moment, he couldn't help but feel excited, but thinking of the purpose of this call, his heart quickly calmed down.
"Brother, it's me. Jin Jingcheng said softly.
"Ah, you kid, when are you going home? I haven't been back since I went to the United States!" Kim Jong Kook said in a reproachful tone, but there was a warm warmth hidden in his words.
This seems to be a term that Jin has not seen for a long time, and it is also a term that he yearns for very much.
Sure enough, Kim Jong Kook's tone immediately calmed down: "Brother misses you very much." ”
Jin Jingcheng was very moved all of a sudden, with Kim Jong Kook's character, he would generally never say such a little sensual words, and when he said it, it undoubtedly means that he really misses it.
"That Jin Jingcheng" A lot of memories about Kim Jong Kook suddenly rolled in the mind of the current Kim Jong Sung, although the current Kim Jong Cheng has no personal experience, but it is enough to experience Kim Jong Kook's concern and love from these memories.
A warm current seemed to be pouring out of the corner of Jin Jingcheng's eyes, but he forcibly suppressed it, and the man didn't flick his tears, not to mention that he was a good man who was determined to be extraordinary in this life.
It is also not good to say that "that Jin is successful", because I want to save money, I want to study wholeheartedly, and because I am a little withdrawn, after studying in the United States, I haven't been back for a few years, and it is not uncommon for this kind of international students to not return for a few years after studying abroad.
After quickly calming down his mood again, Jin Jingcheng cut to the chase: "Brother, I need you to do me a favor." “
Kim Jong Kook said directly: "Ah, don't forget that I'm your brother, if there is anything to say directly, you need to see the outside world like this?"
Jin Jingcheng said "um", he didn't want to beat around the bush, it was better to be straightforward about borrowing money, especially to people like Kim Jong Kook: "I want to ask you to borrow a sum of money, the amount is not small, 80,000 US dollars." ”
Kim Jong Kook on the other end of the phone paused slightly, and then responded, "No problem, I'll send it to you tomorrow." ”
Jin Jingcheng was not much surprised by this result, he knew that with Kim Jong Kook's very brotherly character, he would definitely borrow it, but he didn't expect that Kim Jong Kook didn't ask him what he was doing with such a large sum of money suddenly, so he agreed directly.
Jin Jingcheng hurriedly said: "Believe me, I will pay you back many times in the future." ”
Kim Jong Kook said: "Ah, you kid, don't see me outside, I'm your brother." ”
Jin Jingcheng was moved again, and in silence, he suddenly thought of something, to be exact, two songs.
One is called "A Man" and the other is called "Poisoning".
