1st year Max Level Manager chapter 642

Seoul Regional Qualifier 1

Miso grabs the stationery with both hands and starts reading the letter to me.

-To Uncle Yuno!

Thanks to my uncle, Miso is able to graduate from kindergarten today without any problems.

If it wasn't for my uncle, I probably wouldn't be here.

So thank you so much and I love you as much as the sky and as much as the earth!

But I don't know how to repay my uncle, so I sleep ten or a hundred nights thinking about it, and I still don't know how to repay it!

I guess it's because I'm still young.

Maybe in the future, if I study harder, act, and grow up strong, I think I will know then.

So please stay by my side for a long, long time like now.

Until I grow up and repay my uncle.

And thank you for always loving your smile so much, as much as the ocean as much as the universe!

I will become a more kind smile from now on

A smile that loves uncle

Smile reads all the letters and smiles.

Hehe. End.

Before the return, the smile was dead, so it was a landscape I only dreamed of.

However, things have changed now, and I even received a letter of thanks from the kindergarten.

My heart was pounding, and a shiver began to flow through my body.

I didn't even know if it was a dream or real life, so I stood there for a moment and watched the smiles and laughter.

It was then.

Eugene, who was by my side, grabbed the hem of my clothes.

brother it's okay?

Ah. That, yes."

Then I came to my senses, and with a bright expression, I made a heart above my head and answered.

"Smile. Congratulations on your kindergarten graduation---

In an instant, the parents gathered at the kindergarten start clapping their hands all at once.

clap clap.

When the sound of applause enough to resonate in a small auditorium erupted, a bright smile and laughter burst out.

Then, she opened her small arms wide and hugged me and Eugene at the same time.

I love you~~

Eugene and I both smiled and hugged each other at the same time.

At that moment, my heart, which seemed to have stopped, started beating like crazy.

A feeling of fullness, as if having everything, filled my heart, so I was not envious of anything in the world.

Because the jewel that shines more than anything in the world was held in my arms.

After hugging for a long time, I asked Miso why she hadn't sent a letter to Ms. Jeong-in.

Then the smile answered with a strong tone.

As soon as I woke up this morning, I read the letter on the first floor and delivered it directly.

It's because my grandmother is the oldest.

Aunt Jeong In-ji, with tears in her eyes, took out a letter from her handbag and boasted about it.

"Good job, smile."

Hehehe. Yes!

After that, with a smile in my arms,

I watched the other children read their letters.

As all the other kindergarteners finished reading the letters to their parents one by one, the small auditorium began to become a sea of tears.

Especially when Hanul and Eunbyeol read their parents' letter, everyone was in tears.

This is because the two people who nearly died are now able to recover their health and lead a new life.

After reading all the letters, Han-ul and Eun-byeol are crying Deok-bae and Chae Sang-woo.

and Lee Mi-ri, and their two children handed me a letter as well.

A letter full of gratitude was enough to make my heart flutter.

After the letter reading event was over, it was time for the lunch buffet that Eugene and I had prepared.

When the finest hotel food ordered from Jinseong Hotel arrives, parents and children cheer.

After having a meal for about an hour, it was finally time to part.

Since all of the graduates went on to the same elementary school, we plan to meet again at the entrance ceremony in about a week or so.

But the children start to cry as if the world was falling apart.

"Smile. black... Can't you go to elementary school and pretend you don't know me? Black."

"We too! If you pretend you don't know your friend, you're a traitor!

"I will never betray you! Because traitors are bad people!"

The boys who dared to confess that they love Miso to Miso snorted.

However, he was crying so sadly that he decided to look after him for today.

And the parents behind them left a video of their children laughing and crying.

Finally, when it was time to really part, the head teacher came to the entrance of the kindergarten and waved his hands to bless the children's future.

"Everyone is healthy~ Go to elementary school and be nice~ Study hard~"

Miso said 10 times that she would come to visit often in the arms of the head teacher.

I finally let go of my hand and got into the car.

The kindergarten graduation ceremony of the smile was coming to an end.

The day after the smile's kindergarten graduation ceremony.

February 14th, Valentine's Day.

5:30 in the morning.

I forced my sleepy eyes to open and stood up.

It was Sunday, but there was plenty of work to do.

Because it was Valentine's Day, there were a lot of on and off events, and finally, the Seoul region qualifier for ; Project IOA was held.

I got up from bed, took a quick shower and headed to work.

While we parked in the underground parking lot and waited for the elevator, the staff who got out of the car came to congratulate us.

hand over

"Jae-soo Ko, you say you're going into Hollywood? Really?

"Anyway, our Chief Executive Officer. I also like Suwan. How do you send an actor who has just debuted to Hollywood right away?"

"Did you say that the fee alone is 1 million dollars?"

"Now, most of the leading actors can't even lift their heads in front of Jae-soo. envy. I envy you.

After signing a contract with director James King, LT Enter published an article that Ko Jae-soo would enter Hollywood.

All.

Thanks to this, the entertainment industry, which was heated by the sold-out situation of ; Mt. Jirisan , caught fire again.

Even the employees of my company could not hide their envy whenever they saw me.

This is because Go Jae-soo, who had just debuted as a supporting actor, received 1 million dollars for his appearance.

After being greeted leisurely by saying that I was lucky, I immediately started receiving requests (?) asking if I could add some of my own actors as well.

"Since the Korean War is in the background, it seems possible enough. Let's talk."

"Oh~ Really?

"Hey~ After all, our chief executive officer."

"Wow, really. If it goes well, I'll give you a shot of rice!"

In an instant, an atmosphere of praising me fills the front of the elevator.

Then, the elevator arrived.

Tiing.

It was about time to close the door after we had all climbed into the elevator.

Wait.

Joo Ho-seong, the head of the actor's 3rd division, rushed in.

As the door closes, Director Joo Ho-seong secretly brings up the story of Go Jae-soo.

"But it's not a typhoon, so why Go Jae-soo? They said it was a typhoon that they asked for?"

"Typhoon will go later when he gets an offer for a lead role."

Yes? What did you eat wrong, my friend? Typhoon is the target actor, but that's the only thing you know in Korea. Then, just like a typhoon for nothing

I will lose my chance and regret it. isn't everyone? What do you think?

Director Joo Ho-seong slowly sets the tone and incites the managers around him.

However, since I had already told everyone that I would look out for the roles, no one responded to the words of Joo-ho.

I replied with a grin at the absurd actions of Director Joo Ho-seong.

"That's the chief's idea."

What? What?

Director Joo Ho-seong showed a look of embarrassment as he didn't know he was going to hit it head-on.

Tiing.

The elevator reached the 4th floor and the door opened.

Before I got off, I just cut it off and said to Director Joo Ho-seong.

"If you work with a stereotype like that, you will surely fall behind the times. How hot is Korean content right now? After a while, everyone will know and come to Korea."

He gave me a piece of advice that only the one who knows the future can give.

However, as I expected, Director Joo Ho-seong did not understand and only snorted.

All.

"You say you're doing well these days, and you live with a lot of nonsense."

Yes, life man.

Be the one to be, not the one to be.

If you don't want to listen to someone who has even returned to you, there's nothing more to say.

"Let's see where we are."

After saying that, I turned around.

4th floor conference room.

Upon entering the conference room, the managers of the second room of singers participating in 'Project IOA', Director Ahn Ye-eum, and Jeong-sil's Do Ran-hee and Eun Ji-yu, and Baek Hee-young are sitting nervously.

And composer Bang Seon-woo, who wrote the song for ; Project IOA , lyricist Jang Ye-bin, and choreographer Park Seon-nyeo also finished their makeup and sat nervously.

It was because everyone had to show their faces on the broadcast of ; Project IOA , which starts today in the regional qualifiers.

sorry. I am late."

Director Lee Dong-min shakes his head.

no. Chief Jung. You and I have just arrived."

After greeting the managers of all singers room 2 that I had not seen in a long time, and sitting down, the meeting started immediately.

The first person to speak up was Director Ahn Ye-eum, who oversees the project.

"From today, the 'Project IOA' Seoul preliminaries will be held. A lot of people applied for it, so make sure you live up to the expectations."

Regional qualifiers will be held in Korea, Japan and China for a month from today.

From February 14, regional selection qualifiers are held in three countries for two weeks each, and 100,000 people applied in Korea alone.

10,000 people from Japan and 200,000 people from China applied.

Since Lingling and Seohee, the core members of IOA, are young, there is a limit of up to 23 years of age to apply.

Even though there is a restriction that you have to be able to speak Korean to some extent.

"Even after filtering out the first online qualifier, I have to watch 1,000 people in Seoul for three days from today, so everyone, take care. And we don't know when and where the camera will take pictures, so let's not do anything that will be caught by the broadcasters. You know?"

Project 1.0.A is a program that selects idol IOA members of Gollongso Enter.

And not only the selection process, but also the appearance of managing at Golreongso Entertainment will be broadcast.

So, if the pods were caught, the company could be cursed.

Director Lee Dong-min goes on to say:

"The film crew will come from SBC at 7 o'clock, 30 minutes later. As the director said, be careful, but if you work hard, there will be no major problems."

At that moment, Do Ran-hee raises her hand.

"So, how's the staffing going today? If the IOA team goes from the broadcasting station to the Jangchung Gymnasium, who will take care of the music room today?"

Today's serie is ; Firefly Bridge

It was a situation in which Yeonwoo's 'Hwayeonga' was pushed back and 1st place was strong.

This is because the proportion of Eugene and the goblin has increased recently in ; Hwaranjeon .

Normally I would have gone, but it was difficult for me to go today because I had to check the first qualifier of Project IOA .

So I said to Do Ran-hee.

korean mtl. online

"For now, Ran-hee, you take care of the salesperson. I will go to the Jangchung Gymnasium, then check the time and move on to the music room."

At that moment, the mark that Do Ran-hee was sorry

make a fix

"Ah~ I heard it aired today~ Sheesh. I can't help it. If it's for the publican, you have no choice but to sacrifice this beauty."

Our Lanhee.

I went into makeup today, and I had high expectations that I would appear on a TV show.

"There are many opportunities to show off your beauty, so first of all, do a good job at the music studio. Our publican is also number one today."

Yes. low tide

"Ah, and today is Valentine's Day, so give the fan club members a good deal of chocolate. If you give someone and leave someone out, big things will happen. know?

Sure. Where am I doing this one-two day?"

okay.

After that, team leader Baek Hee-young decided to take on Seo Yeon-woo, and the rest were all assigned to ; Project IOA , so the division of work was finished.

After that, Director Lee Dong-min asked Bang Seon-woo if the first competition song was ready.

"Sunwoo. Is there a song?"

Yes. Ready."

Bang Seon-woo played the first song called 'IDOLS', which he had arranged endlessly, in front of people.

A song with an addictive chorus and bouncing melody is so easy and memorable that it can be followed even with humming.

Jang Ye-bin wrote lively lyrics that fall hard on the melody, and Park Seon-nyeo's choreographer made a point choreography called 'Digging Dance'.

"Are you going to eat it?"

As admiration flowed from the mouth of Director Lee Dong-min, everyone was nodding their heads.

"You worked hard, Seonwoo."

"Everyone worked hard. Both Yebin and Seonnyeo."

At that moment, I immediately proposed one thing.

"This manager. How about leaving this to the Cherry Blossom kids and asking them to guide them?"

"Hmm. Wouldn't that be too much of a comparison?"

"Anyway, the moment you start auditioning, you will be compared. So, why not ask the Cherry Blossom kids to record a guide video and distribute it? Then, from the beginning of the program, do you think you will be able to focus on issues?"

Audition programs are rather buried if there are no issues.

So, I suggested that we make a topic of discussion.

Director Lee Dong-min pondered for a moment, then nodded.

OK. Then, Team Leader Han Myung-ho

take charge of it Practice singing so that you can guide the song, and practice choreography in training clothes. And I shoot with only transparent makeup."

Yes. Manager."

After completing the instructions, Director Lee Dong-min said:

"And since the selection schedules for Korea, Japan, and China are all different, the video will be released once it's finished. Until then, let's stay safe. In particular, the lyrics, composition, and choreography are subdivided. You must not disclose it to your friends. Do you know?"

Yes~

Do not worry!

As we were having a meeting like that, the time for filming got closer and closer.

Everyone looks tense.

For this project, with my involvement to a minimum, 2 singers and the singer team of 'Jeong-sil' had to do the rest on their own.

Everyone seems to feel a lot of pressure on a mega project, but if it succeeds, it is clear that it will grow even more.

And they grew up like that,

I was convinced that they would become the key talents who will be responsible for the future of the fast-growing Holgoongso Entertainment.

That was one of the reasons why I did this ; Project IOA at our hoop.

jiiying~

Director Lee Dong-min's phone, placed on the table, rings.

It was a message that SBC's ; Project IOA filming team had arrived at the company.

"Now, let's begin. Let's buy one and hit it properly."

Yes! Manager!"

So a new journey had begun.

Jangchung Gymnasium waiting room.

I was taking care of Woo Woo-hee and Yang Eun-bi, who appeared as judges today.

Woo Yeon-hee, who was getting makeup in front of the mirror, took a deep breath.

All.

Still, I'm not sure if I'm nervous, so I look in the mirror and say.

"Yunho oppa. Can we do it?"

"What else can't you do? After being number one for 10 weeks, he is the best idol in Korea who achieved number one on music shows for 12 weeks in a row."

No one in Korea has any doubts about Cherry Blossom's ability.

However, Woo Yeon-hee was not convinced that her current success was still like a dream.

I know the humble character, but when

Ron, you need to be bold.

The moment she is about to tell her to believe in herself, Eunbi Yang says with a smile.

"Yunho oppa. Do not worry. Yeon-hee Unnie, it's Um-sal, Um-sal. I rehearsed yesterday, and it was absolutely amazing! Producer Ji Young-sik said that, but he thought he was a professional judge."

okay?

Since he deliberately rarely attended the planning meetings, rehearsals, and selection processes of ; Project IOA , we do not know the exact circumstances.

Not only did the time not come,

It was because I wanted to give my colleagues a chance to grow when I had a chance.

So, I don't take on the role of a judge at all, I'm only playing the role of 'adviser'.

At Yang Eun-bi's words, Woo Yeon-hee shakes her head.

"No, brother. Eunbi, that's because she takes good care of whatever I do."

brother. Don't believe Yeonhee unnie's words. Yeonhee unnie is a person who will say she is not confident even if she wins first place for 20 weeks in a row. okay?"

Yang Eun-bi clasped her hands and hit me

see everything

The way he had his mouth shut was cute, so I laughed without realizing it.

Usually, when they succeed to this extent, the bridge of the nose, whether an idol or an actor, is bound to pierce the sky.

But these children I have chosen remain innocence as they were the day they first met.

Why are you laughing?

"Because it's pretty"

When I omit the word 'heart', Yang Eun-bi's cheeks and ears turn red in an instant.

Oh really. All of a sudden, what do you mean!"

Yang Eun-bi, the king of logic, was weak in direct praise like this.

Wooyeon-hee smiles as he grows up next to him.

Yes. Eunbi, you are pretty."

"Ha, don't!"

"You're pretty, I guess"

"Don't do it~ Oh, really."

In the end, the two began to quarrel playfully, tickling like sisters.

But it was then.

Bump.

The door opened, and PD Ji Young-sik, who was in charge of ; Project IOA , appeared.

"Ah, was Chief Jung there too?"

Producer Ji Young-sik's face is bright.

There is only one reason for this.

"Did you find a good candidate?"

Hahaha. Would you like to see my heart through this? Yes. Go Eun Seo is the participant number 111, and she shines very brightly. Shine!"

At that moment, I just freeze

it went

Go Eun-seo.

Because she was one of the sources of my stomach pain during my top entertainment days with Min Gyuri.
