722 The concert that sparked the Korean Internet battle
After father and son recognized each other and their relationship quickly became closer, the eldest princess quickly placed a cruel reality in front of Cao Xuan.
She wants Cao Xian to go to school in China!
To be honest, Cao Xuan is somewhat resistant to this decision. From his heart, he would rather Cao Xian and his son stay in South Korea. He will only come here a few times a year in the future, and he doesn't want his children to go to China.
It's not like Cao Xuan didn't consider this as he was dealing with various property inheritance disputes.
The wealth he had accumulated, no matter how he divided it among his three children, would be enough for them to waste their lives for several lifetimes. There was no need to stage any tragedy among wealthy families competing for the family property. Cao Xuan had even made a certain distribution plan in his heart, so no one threatened anyone.
What he is really worried about is the reaction of the East and West Palaces if Cao Xian is exposed.
"hiss…"
Although Cao Xuan said that the two women in the East and West Palaces are as gentle as water and good wives, after more than ten years together, he would not know what the personalities of the two women in his family are.
Two enemies who had turned against each other now live under the same roof. It's not about how generous they are, but they want to join forces to fight against the enemy and form a strategic alliance of interests.
As for how the two of them have accumulated more affection after getting along for more than ten years and have gradually become as close as sisters, that is another matter.
Watching and helping each other, and strictly guarding against the fourth one, is the true essence of the harmonious coexistence of the East and West houses from beginning to end.
Cao Xuan knew in his heart that if he occasionally made a small mistake outside, the East and West Palaces would probably turn a blind eye and pretend they didn't know about it.
But they can tolerate Cao Xuan's mischief, and they can even promise some benefits, but they can never form a long-term stable relationship. This is the bottom line.
As for the trouble of having a child, it is even worse. It directly infringes on the common interests of both of them and even the children, and it is even more impossible to tolerate...
Therefore, if it is just the eldest princess, the two palaces of the East and West may not care about it, even if they have a long-term relationship.
Because of the identity and personality of the eldest princess, it is impossible for her to be with Cao Xuan publicly, and since she is far away in South Korea, the threat is not great. However, Cao Xian's existence is completely different, especially if she has to go to China, the problem is even more serious.
Cao Xuan felt that a bowl of water was fair and he could not treat any child badly.
However, it is impossible not to think too much about the East and West Palaces, and the various chain reactions and costs caused by this may be beyond the reach of Cao Xuan.
But Cao Xuan couldn't say anything about not letting Cao Xian go to school in China.
Although there are some selfish motives on the part of the eldest princess, it is undeniable that the situation in South Korea is indeed becoming increasingly serious, and it is not suitable for Cao Xian to stay any longer.
Cao Xuan's cheap father-in-law, the old president of Samsung, is already in his seventies. He is in poor health and rarely appears in public.
According to the eldest princess, the old president's health was even more serious than what was rumored outside.
Because the old man has money, various medicines, supplements and medical technology support, the situation seems to be good, but even so, doctors estimate that he will be dead in 3 to 5 years.
Although the heir to Samsung has been decided, the crown prince is obviously unable to control the situation.
There are undercurrents surging internally, and there are also major chaebols watching from the outside, and it even involves top Korean officials and external capital such as the United States.
It cannot be said that Samsung has become a big whirlpool, but it is not a peaceful place either. Cao Xian has a special status, so there is no guarantee that no one will make a fuss about him.
Even if it does not involve life danger, Cao Xuan cannot bear to teach his children badly or suffer other harm.
Of course, he can also be sent to study in other countries, but it is really uneasy to be in a foreign country without any elders to look after him. Moreover, Cao Xuan and the eldest princess are reluctant to let a child in his early ten years go to school alone abroad.
And if you go to China, your safety is guaranteed, Cao Xuan can also take care of you, and the relationship between father and son can be further cultivated to make up for the lack of previous relationship. Overall, it is the best place to study abroad.
Therefore, no matter how worried Cao Xuan was about the East and West Palaces, he did not shake his head in denial.
"There's still half a year left, let me make arrangements."
After hesitating for a while, Cao Xuan still agreed to the eldest princess's proposal. As for the rest, let's take it one step at a time.
Cao Xian couldn't hide him for a lifetime. At the very least, he had to let his grandparents see his grandson.
Sun Lan and his wife have always had some objections to the number of Cao Xuan's children. In the past two years, they have urged her several times. If they could bring back an eldest grandson, they would probably be angry and scolded, but they might not be sure about Chang Song.
tone.
After several previous experiences, Cao Xuan, who had figured out the routines of his father and mother, began to look forward to the reaction of his father and mother...
…
Once the plan is set, the eldest princess doesn't have to worry about the rest. The house, school, and caregivers have their own Cao Xuan contacts.
If the eldest princess is worried, she can send someone to follow her. Of course, the channels for international students and some documents must come from her.
If nothing unexpected happens, the place where Cao Xian studies abroad should be the capital, and Cao Xuan can take care of him nearby.
In fact, it would be more secluded and safer for Cao Xian to go to other cities, but Cao Xuan often travels on business and spends most of his time in the capital when he returns home. It is inconvenient for Cao Xian to go to other cities.

Cao Xian went directly to junior high school in China. According to the domestic academic system, Cao Xian could go back to South Korea every winter and summer vacation, and he could also go back to South Korea during some short vacations.
After all, the flight between Seoul and Beijing only takes a little over two hours. If it is faster to use Cao Xuan's private plane, theoretically speaking, if Cao Xian is willing, it is not impossible to return to South Korea once a week.
"Find him a Chinese teacher later and take advantage of this half year to study unexpectedly."
Cao Xuan explained that Cao Xian could barely speak Mandarin, had no problem communicating, and knew a lot of words, but he was not good at writing, understanding and some complex knowledge, so he still had to make up for it.
"It has been arranged. His Chinese was not as good as it is now two years ago."
The eldest princess is obviously well prepared. Cao Xian also learned Chinese and English before, but he was still young and mostly focused on basic knowledge.
After deciding to send Cao Xian to study abroad in China, he began to deepen and further study Chinese, and Cao Xian's Chinese proficiency also improved rapidly.
Cao Xuan also checked his son's schoolwork afterward. He found that Chinese was almost at the lower grade level of elementary school, but some aspects were stronger.
I know a lot about science and English, but I have to adapt to changing Korean to Chinese.
But this is not bad. Many international students come to China and have to teach Chinese and Mandarin from scratch. At Cao Xian's level, he can barely even take some courses with domestic students.
Cao Xuan has already called to inquire. Most of the foreign students in middle schools like this will not take classes with domestic students. Instead, they have their own teaching procedures and progress. There is no need to worry too much about Cao Xian's inability to adapt to the learning environment.
"Your dad and I have a horse farm in the capital. I'll pick one for you later. I'll take you to ride a horse after school on weekends."
"By the way, I heard that you like guitars. My father has a piano room in Beijing and has dozens of guitars in his collection. I will choose which one I want."
Cao Xuan temporarily let go of some of his worries and began to enjoy the future life of father and son.
Cao Li is a girl. There are many things that he likes, but his daughter either cannot play with them or is not very interested in them. His youngest son, Cao Yang, is too young to accompany him now.
Now that he has an eldest son of the right age, Cao Xuan can be considered a "successor", and father and son can participate in some activities together.
Cao Xian also discussed with Cao Xuan enthusiastically. Due to her status and situation, the eldest princess had stricter control over him and would not let him go out easily.
When he was a child, when the old president was still in good health, he would sometimes take him out to play.
In recent years, when the old president fell ill, there were few male elders to accompany him. Cao Xian could only play around with his classmates at school. Even though he was precocious and sensible since he was a child, he could not be unaffected at all.
Now that I have a biological father, even though it has only been a few days, it has brought him a companionship that is different from a mother's love. The happiness of the family has greatly increased, and the child is visibly more lively and confident.
Cao Xuan and the eldest princess were somewhat relieved to see the changes in their children.
In single-parent families, especially children who grow up with their mothers and lack of family members, some tend to have low self-esteem and are introverted, while others tend to become stronger.
Cao Xian is considered the latter, but a strong child does not mean that he is insensitive inside. Even this kind of strength is a kind of sensitivity out of self-protection to a certain extent.
This may be a good thing for children, but as parents, sometimes we don’t want our children to be “too sensible”, which makes people feel distressed.
………
"Tomorrow is dad's concert. I have arranged seats for you. Come and watch my performance then."
He still wants to get along with his son and is not in a hurry. Cao Xuan still has serious things to do. After a few days of rest, he will start the Asian stage concert immediately.
Thinking that his son had never seen his live performance and had the mentality of a father showing off, Cao Xuan gave Cao Xian some VIP tickets.
He doesn’t know whether the eldest princess is going or not?
This person is indeed very busy right now. She leaves early and comes back late every day, and she may not want to reveal her identity. Anyway, I gave her the ticket and let her make her own decision on whether to go or not.
In late September, the first Asian phase of Cao Xuan's farewell concert was held in South Korea, at the Seoul Olympic Stadium, with a single concert attendance of over 60,000.
There are three concerts in Korea, two in Seoul and one in Busan, with a single attendance of 30,000+.
The reason why they were not all arranged in Seoul is because Cao Xuan received a warm invitation from the Busan government, and he happened to be the ambassador of Busan, so he moved one show to Busan.
Yes, although Cao Xuan has never been to Busan several times, he is indeed the ambassador of Busan.
And he has more than twenty similar city titles, not even counting the country.
Apart from anything else, just for one stage of his concert, he was awarded the title of Moroccan Tourism Ambassador and Honorary Citizen of Abu Dhabi.
As for the honorary title of Dubai, it was awarded to Cao Xuan together with Qatar as early as 2007, the last concert.
The reason why Cao Xuan received these titles is partly because of his influence, and partly because of the rise of Chinese tourists in the past two years, who are buying and selling around the world.
Don't look at the many so-called attacks on the Internet that Chinese tourists are not qualified and should not go abroad to embarrass themselves. They are all in a rhythm. If Chinese tourists are really not allowed to go, the local government will be the first to refuse.
Especially in several small countries and well-known tourist cities in Southeast Asia, Chinese tourists have even become an important source of income. It is no exaggeration to say that hundreds of thousands of people rely on them for food.
Many of Cao Xuan's titles were obtained under such circumstances, and the other party even invited embassy personnel to personally handle the matter to prevent Cao Xuan from refusing.
However, except for some sensitive cities and countries, Cao Xuan refuses almost everyone who comes. This kind of public welfare title seems to have no effect, but it still has some hidden benefits.
For example, Cao Xuan is the image ambassador of Busan. His works and some related companies can get certain benefits here, and the aura of dozens of well-known foreign cities has given him another layer of gold paint in China.
Even if some of the titles are purely useless, there is no harm in leading them. They are just showing up to cooperate.
The economic and population centers of Japan and South Korea are all in the capital, with Busan being a special case. Japanese concerts are concentrated in Tokyo, with four consecutive performances at the Tokyo Dome. This is also Cao Xuan's most concerts in a single city in Asia.
As the base camp where Cao Xuan has worked for more than ten years, fans and fans in Asia are more crazy than in Europe and the United States.
Tickets for the three concerts have been sold at sky-high prices. The most expensive VIP ticket on a Korean trading website has reached nearly 10 million won, or 50,000 yuan, which is dozens of times higher than the original price.
"Fans all over Korea are going crazy!"
This was the headline on the front page of South Korea's Dong-A Ilbo. Other media and some people also expressed their surprise. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it also showed that Cao Xuan's concert has become a top-notch event in South Korea.
It even triggered a war of words between fans in Seoul and Busan.
The reason is that there is a concert in Busan. Seoul fans think it is completely unnecessary. What kind of concert are those "country people" attending?
It occupies only one venue and is even reduced in size by half. If it were placed in Seoul, it would get 30,000 more tickets.
Busan fans are definitely not able to passively receive scolding and immediately retaliate with sarcastic and sarcastic remarks.
The two sides have accumulated regional conflicts over the years, and usually quarrel over nothing, but now they are using the issue to their advantage, and they are even shouting at each other.
This incident later spread and shocked the country and Japan. It immediately attracted a large number of people who were not too concerned about the fuss and started fanning people in various ways, fearing that the scolding would be muted.
There were even several hot searches on Weibo——
#Cao Xuan single-handedly provoked the split of South Korea#
#Trigger the Korean Internet War, Cao Xuan#
#The most powerful concert in history#
#Laughter to death, Sino-Japanese friendship relies on South Korea#
Many netizens and fans also called on everyone to restrain themselves when the concert is held in China, and not to quarrel between the north and the south and the provinces, so as not to be laughed at.
Amid all the commotion, it was time for Cao Xuan’s first concert.
There are 60,000 people in the venue, but there are at least 80,000 people outside. Some are just watching the excitement, some want to try their luck to buy tickets on the spot, and some want to listen to the lingering sounds outside the stadium.
Cao Xian arrived a little late, and the eldest princess wearing a mask and hat personally led him. Next to him were the somewhat excited Assistant Cui, and Zhu Jiang and the eldest princess's exclusive bodyguards who were sent by Cao Xuan.
"There are so many people."
The eldest princess was worried about her child's safety. Cao Xian rarely went to places where many people gathered. In fact, the place where he saw the most people was at school, but there were only tens of thousands of people.
"Uncle Zhu, are these all here to see dad?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Cao Xian's eyes suddenly lit up, his small chest doubled in height, and he was filled with pride.
