48. Relationships gather 1

When I got a call from Director Lee Dong-min and returned to the company, good news awaited me.

"Chief. Did Wheelless really sponsor shoes?"

Yes. I just got a call."

It is said that the white ugly shoes that Cherry Blossom wore on stage became a hot topic after being posted on SNS.

Thanks to that, the manufacturer of those Ugly shoes

It is said that an offer of sponsorship came from In Wheelies.

"If you place an order, they say they will send it right away, so call me early tomorrow morning and pick it up right away."

Yes. Manager."

Team leader Han Myung-ho was handed the contact information with a happy face.

Sponsorship is usually requested by the agency.

He said, Please give us a sponsorship because we will send out hundreds of proposals, crouch down to the product manager and advertise.

However, the success rate of receiving sponsorship did not exceed 10%.

Of course, if it's popular, I'll give you money, so please change your position to use it only once.

But did Wheelis contact you first?

It was a good sign.

"It's a pity that it's not an advertisement offer, but where is this? And ask them to order several sets of each color. Be sure to take it when you give it."

Yes, you should get it when you give it.

Team leader Han Myung-ho nodded his head again and again.

But it was disappointing for me.

If Cherry Blossom had been more popular, an advertisement proposal would have come along with this opportunity.

"But, Yunho. Where the hell did those shoes come from?"

"Oh, come to think of it, did you not buy it with your own money?"

Now director Lee Dong-min and team leader Han Myung-ho ask where he got the Ugly Shoes.

"Were you in the fitting room?"

what?

After receiving a sponsorship, I took it out of the company's supply room, where only dust was accumulating.

I have to save even a penny, because I can't buy shoes that cost more than 100,000 won per pair with my own money.

"I took it out after getting permission from Assistant Manager Choi. It was sponsored by Golden Road, but they said they don't wear it. You said you just sign the export document and take it with you?"

haha. they came on my feet

You kicked your fortune."

"It's like that."

The two's faces brightened several times more than usual, as if they thought that they had given room to room 1, a competitor.

It was then.

Director Lee Dong-min put on a serious expression saying if he had something to say about the production of Cherry Blossom's new song.

"Ah, Yunho. The new Cherry Blossom song will be produced by myself. Know that."

Team leader Han Myung-ho looked surprised

asked with

"Are you the manager yourself?"

Yes.

Although I put my hand away for a while, director Dongmin Lee's original production ability is within five fingers in Korea.

Director Lee Dong-min, who is the producer of Cherry Blossom?

If so, the probability of the success of Cherry Blossom's next song will increase dramatically.

The final level of perfection is at the producer's eye level.

"Chief. May I ask if there are any composers you have in mind?"

Director Lee Dong-min sighed and laughed.

why? Is there anyone you like?"

"Oh, no. It's not like that... I'm curious to what level you're looking for.

"I'll have to look for it. First of all, I'm going to meet with S-class composers I'm familiar with. I will spare no money for the song."

The average cost of songs for S-class composers is around 20 million won.

However, even if it was more than that, he showed a strong will that he would pay as much as he could and bring it.

Well, that doesn't mean you're going to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to buy it.

"It's not an album, it's just one song, so there's no pressure. If you look closely, you will find one."

Team leader Han Myung-ho said as a joke.

"What if you like all the songs?"

"Then you should buy them all."

Director Lee Dong-min, who was always passive in his work after leaving the field, changed.

there was

If you are an S-class composer, you can do the basics.

Among them, I am excited to see which song will match the hit song in my memory.

"Because that's how it happened. One team leader, Yunho. I'm counting on you.

Yes. Manager!"

Yes. Manager!"

Spring is coming to Cherry Blossom.

It is a spring day when they will be in full bloom and show off their talents to the fans.

* * *

Before coming to the second room for actors.

I was able to hear from Director Lee Dong-min that Director Koo Sung-cheol and Director Kim Dong-soo had a fight.

I don't know the reason, but I checked the diary first saying it was because of Joo Young-in.

[Everyday VI

[Date: April 1, 2020]

-PM 10:00 ; Delete schedule

(Deleted schedule: SBC ; Blue Sky monitoring. Departure rating 7.5%.)

'Young-in Joo took the lead role.'

However, as expected, it was not surprising.

If it were Joo Young-in's recent recognition and acting skills, it would have been as simple as defeating the new actress Choi Yeon-ah, who was originally cast for the role of 'Kim Ha-neul'.

However, even so, the two managers

I didn't know why they were fighting.

With curiosity, I headed to the second room of the actor.

tyring.

We arrived on the 4th floor where the office was located.

It was 11 p.m. and the lights weren't out yet.

In a corner of the office, head Koo Guo-cheol and team leader Oh Deok-gu, who were tired, were seen.

uh? Yunho is here."

"It was a lot of work."

Manager Koo Seong-cheol raised his hand and cut the blade

long

"Our Jung Star. Did you do anything today?"

"I was lucky."

Director Koo Sung-cheol laughed.

"If luck is repeated, it's skill. By the way, aren't you going to the singer's room like this?

a. Director Koo is also a member of the eternal actor room 2."

Yes? Is it real?"

He held out his finger in a suspicious attitude.

"Would you like me to write a blood book?"

When I said it jokingly, Manager Koo Sung-cheol nodded his head.

"Oh, chief. Catch Yunho you write blood I won't bring a knife.

Yes. Manager."

Team leader Oh Deok-goo playfully wrapped his arms around my shoulder.

But when I didn't show a big reaction, I stopped playing and coughed in vain.

"It's not funny, but have you ever heard of Joo Young-in starring?"

,,Yes.,,

"Then you fought with Director Kim?"

Yes. This is what the manager told me."

When asked what the English was, the head of the department, Koo Sung-cheol, smiled bitterly and began to tell the situation.

"Actually, in the afternoon, manager Kim, his son had a phone interview with the entertainer, Bang Bang News writer, and he told Eugene to be an actor to 'put in'. Yes, I played it."

"Are you going to put it in?"

Insertion refers to inserting an actor from the same agency when casting the desired actor.

In a nutshell, it meant inserting a child with no skills into kkakdugi.

"Wow, that's really ridiculous."

As I raised my voice, Director Koo Seong-cheol calmed me down.

"Well, Eugene first auditioned and Joo Young-in made it clear that she applied afterwards, so don't worry too much about it."

I guess I'll have to recruit one or two reporters from the entertainment department.

If Kim Dong-soo plays the press openly, I have to prepare myself too.

"But, well, there are only bad things, right? Eugene said that the Burger Queen CF was also well shot?"

Yes. Manager."

"Okay, let's hope the commercials are a hit. Then our Eugene's awareness will increase even more. isn't it? Oh chief?"

Yes. you're right! Manager."

The two tried to hide their anger with bright expressions on their faces.

However, thanks to that, we could easily bring up the idea of recruiting Lee Tae-poong.

I hinted at the two awkwardly smiling faces.

"Chief. Do you have any plans to feed Director Kim a bite?"

For a moment, as if the two of them had been waiting, he asked with a reflection.

"Well, is there any good way?"

"What is it? Huh?

The two people's faces started to get curious.

end of last year.

After Stepping Stone Enter, the 3rd largest in the industry, and Lewis, the fourth largest, went bankrupt, all the entertainment companies were recruiting stars from both companies.

Of course, we also hired two actors.

I'm trying to create a team and recruit them.

I said let's add one more actor to the list.

"Lee Tae-pung?"

Director Koo Guo-cheol tilted his head and made an expression that he remembered it too late.

"Isn't that the guy from 'Beautiful Goodbye'?"

,,Yes.,,

Lee Tae-poong, who made his debut as a street caster in his third year of high school, rose to stardom in an instant with his sculptural appearance.

However, due to serious problems with his acting skills, the number of works he appeared in was gradually decreasing.

Hence the nickname 'Pond David,

It is an abbreviation of 'David who can't act'.

He was so handsome that he endured as a CF, but even that CF almost disappeared a year ago.

As expected, Manager Koo Guo showed a negative reaction at once.

"He doesn't know what to do. The acting is bad, and the vocalization is also bad. good face

As an actor, the bottom must have already been exposed. Why do you want to hire such an actor?"

You're right, the friend said that he swept advertisements for a while, but these days, the image consumption is so bad that CFs don't come in.

As you work in the entertainment industry for a long time, you become more and more insensitive when you see handsome and pretty people.

Because both dogs and cows are pretty and handsome.

The statues that are not sold are only for ornamental purposes, not for commodities.

But, what if someone was interested in the ornamental?

There was also a law that had no value.

"The Lee Tae-poong, director Kim Dong-soo is aiming."

In an instant, their eyes twinkled.

Are you sure?

Future Diary, the day after tomorrow, Director Kim Dong-soo has a meeting to recruit Lee Tae-poong.

[Everyday VI

[Date: January 14, 2020]

-PM 01:00 Cheongdam-dong H Villa, this typhoon recruitment meeting.

Yes. For sure."

"Hmm

The two people's attention was drawn to the fact that Kim Dong-soo, the head of the department, who smells money well, is aiming.

It meant that there was something I didn't know.

After contemplating for a moment, Manager Koo Guo shook his head.

"Still, I am against it."

Yes? Chief. why

"Yunho. I don't want to follow Kim Dong-soo. He smells money, but I don't. What are you going to do with it again? I have no ability to take care of a broken actor."

How are you going to bring an actor who has a lot of image consumption and can't act?

That was the concern of Director Koo Sung-cheol.

But I know exactly the problem with Lee Tae-poong.

how to take care of it.

* * *

The disease name of Lee Tae-poong is dyslexia.

As a result, it was quite difficult to read the script.

But before returning, Lee Tae-poong, who overcame dyslexia with my help, shows amazing acting skills.

However, as of now, he could not tell anyone his symptoms.

It's so complex, because he hid it for a long time, so the people who know the truth are extremely limited.

After thinking for a while, I confessed the words I had prepared.

Because there was a way to persuade Director Koo Sung-cheol and Team Leader Oh Deok-goo without revealing the name of his illness.

"Lee Tae-poong, a lot of people don't know because that friend doesn't speak . From what I've found, there's some kind of camera hoarseness.

"Camera hoarseness?"

Yes. As you know, it's possible to fix the camera hoarseness, right? And once we meet, I have the confidence to persuade him. Just leave it to me."

"Okay The actor is a camera nerd."

"Still, it makes sense. I thought the smoke was awkward for some reason."

Then the two nodded as if they understood.

If I'm right, Lee Tae-poong's spirit mouth is worth a try.

"It's difficult. Still, it's an adventure to proceed with a contract without confirmation...

Of course it's difficult.

So, I had to actively take the initiative in making this work.

It's a contract that wouldn't come true under normal circumstances.

"Can't we offer a short-term contract and then offer a contract that automatically extends to a long-term once certain conditions are met?"

To see if my proposal was plausible, Manager Koo Guo listened.

"Think about it until tomorrow morning. If you're bringing in an additional manager as well as an actor... It's a bit complicated."

I told him in advance that we should also recruit one of his manager candidates, who helped Lee Tae-poong, but he did not give a definite answer.

Yes. All right.

But it must have been fished.

it's bound to be

What if David of the Pond becomes David of the Year?

You'll get a free ride on the express train to the top star.

the next morning.

I went to Eugene's house and checked the schedule for the first script reading of ; Blue Sky the day after tomorrow.

Eugene is the lead actress, Joo Young-in is the lead actor.

As if nothing happened to the story, I focused on the script.

I gave a thumbs up when I said that I can't just do what I can do well.

Then I lied on the ground and walked over to the smile that bounced off my feet.

Miso is coloring in the character drawing, where only the outline is drawn, with all kinds of colored pencils.

This time it's the candy house from Hansel and Gretel.

However, at least the color marked as sweets is a color that humans are unlikely to eat.

'Are there not enough colored pencils?

When I glanced at it, I saw that none of the 36 colors were missing.

'You're just a free spirit.'

But I cheered while ignoring the truth.

Wow. our smile. Are you good at drawing?"

The smile that was painting raises her head and smirks.

Really?

Huh. The best drawing among the six years I've seen! Awesome smile!"

A smile laughs bashfully.

Hehe. Now I am seven years old."

Clutching his hands and stretching out his seven fingers, he emphasizes his age by saying that he is now seven years old.

Oh sorry. Uncle forgot."

"And me, I'm going to school next year too!"

Wow~. already?

,,Huh!',

"Are we all smiling? congratulations?

The smile's face brightened even more.

Seeing the bright smile on his face, I suddenly remembered an old question.

Did I mention that I was in a love triangle with two kindergarteners?

I thought that I should talk about the answer I had been pondering over my worries, so I slowly let go of my luck and said.

"Smile. You said something last time... Oh.

No matter how much you think about it, there is only one answer to the love question of a smile.

Love is too early!

So if those children say that one more time, I will go and give their souls.

that's what i was trying to say

By the way.

Oh. Is it? I'm fine now.

The smile nodded her head, saying she didn't have to answer any more.

Yes?

why?

What the hell is going on, smile?
