Our sun cannot even turn into a black hole. It will first grow to red giant before it finally dies and turns into a white dwarf.

No. Stars like the Sun just aren't massive enough to become black holes. Instead, in several billion years, the Sun will cast off its outer layers, and its core will form a white dwarf - a dense ball of carbon and oxygen that no longer produces nuclear energy, but that shines because it is very hot. A typical white dwarf is about as massive as the Sun, but only as big as Earth, which is one percent of the Sun's present diameter.
So i think this is the real answer.

Not really, because then I just say that perhaps the white dwarf is the result of the star overcoming its absorbing force that is the internal black hole so that it is strictly productive. Instead of the absorbing force overcoming the productive force and becoming strictly absorbent.
I edited my post to include that possibility.

Is this your opinion or did you read about this somewhere?

It's an idea I created to support my theory.

Well kuddos to you for putting some thought into a theory.
But when someone gives you an idea and you respond with "Not really, because I just say...." then you are giving no other possibility but your own ideas and you are making them up on the fly.
Based on what little bit of general knowledge I have of black holes.....I would say that if one existed "inside the sun" then the sun and our planet wouldnt be here.

What is this force you speak of?
That goes against everything we know about black holes.
The fusion of lighter elements in stars releases energy (and the mass that always accompanies it). For example, in the fusion of four hydrogen nuclei to form helium, seven-tenths of 1 percent of the mass is carried away from the system in the form of kinetic energy or other forms of energy (such as electromagnetic radiation)[2] However, the production of elements heavier than iron absorbs energy.

The internal black hole idea won't work. You are taking away the internal pressure that keeps the star from collapsing.
There is a theory of parasitary black holes: www.sciencedaily.com...
A star is a sphere of gas held together by its own gravity. The force of gravity is continually trying to cause the star to collapse, but this is counteracted by the pressure of hot gas and/or radiation in the star's interior.
