1st Year Max Level Manager chapter 124

- Volume 5 Episode 24

124. Win the lead role 1

"Oh, sir, I'm sorry a little while ago. It's not that I dared ignore you... "

Tae-poong Lee apologized to Cha Tae-hoon.

Cha Tae-hoon looked at Lee Tae-poong, who had his head down, without saying a word, and made a face mixed with laughter.

child. Did you practice a lot?"

thank you.

"What is gratitude? But, typhoon. Don't try too hard."

Yes?

"They say that the main character won't go to you."

Cha Tae-hoon continued, and Joo Ho-seong, team leader, also brought up the story that the lead role had already been appointed.

"Dr. Jeong. This kind of story may be a bit embarrassing, but it's already been talked about with high-ranking people. Our car actor has been selected as the lead role in this movie, so let's not blush for nothing."

Lee Tae-poong looked at me with a bewildered expression.

Seeing that, Cha Tae-hoon clicked his tongue and said.

"Madam, don't look like that. Did you come here because you were expecting something? Instead, I'll tell Director Choi to take care of one for a good role."

After saying that, Cha Tae-hoon patted Lee Tae-poong on the shoulder and headed for his van.

Team leader Joo Ho-seong, who is left alone, tells me.

"Mr Typhoon's acting has improved a lot too.

It seems like it, so I'll try to push the role of Kang Il-rok in particular. do not worry.

Captain Kang Il-rok of the North Korean special operations battalion, who plays the role of pursuing Seong-ha Cha, the main character who stole a nuclear physicist, is a key role in the play, albeit a supporting role.

But I really wanted to let Lee Tae-poong play the lead role.

It was because the leading role was absolutely necessary to change the image of Lee Tae-pung, who had been called Pond David for a long time, at once.

Team leader Joo Ho-seong, even in my heart

Without knowing it, I followed Cha Tae-hoon.

As the two disappeared, Lee Tae-poong made a dead voice.

brother. Really? Today's audition, the result was decided from the beginning... "

Lee Tae-poong opened his mouth with difficulty.

I smiled and shook my head.

"Is that possible? Believe me.

Without you, that statement would have been true.

And it would have been true without me.

But a little while ago, I successfully

Because of the audition, that future will change from now on.

Of course, it just doesn't work.

"For once, we. Let's go get some food.

"Is it rice?"

Yes. Let's eat beef today.

Jeong Sang-bong and Lee Dae-ho look at me with worried eyes.

"Master Jung. Typhoon is fasting, so it will be difficult to eat meat."

"We eat meat, Typhoon is Sogo

I will feed you pine nuts. In any case, please follow me."

Before the return, director Choi Seong-moon knew that he had been waiting 20 minutes earlier than the promised time.

those 20 minutes.

This is the time given to me to meet director Choi Seong-moon and make Tae-poong Lee the lead role.

* * *

As we entered the premium Korean beef restaurant 'Guuguu', decorated with black tiles, a well-maintained pine bonsai greeted us from the lobby.

Since I had entered the dignified shop, Jeong Sang-bong asked with a look of anxiety.

"Master Jung. It looks very expensive here, doesn't it?"

"It's okay, it's okay. it will work out somehow.

Without realizing it, my voice trembled.

You cannot use your corporate card to come to this restaurant.

So I had to pay it all with my own money.

One serving, 120g, is a whopping 65,000 won.

I couldn't predict how much the meat price would come out today.

Lee Tae-poong carefully looked into my eyes.

brother. Shall I pay?"

it's okay. I have money to spend on this."

CEO Kang Gam-chan gave me a generous bonus, so I plan to spend that money.

In the reserved room number 4, one in five

I ordered raw beef ribs and beef pine nut porridge to feed to Lee Tae-poong, who was fasting.

Watching the side dishes being spread, I went out of the room.

The current time is 7:09.

It is time for director Choi Seong-moon to arrive soon.

I closed the sliding door and checked my diary.

'The schedule is the same.'

Unsurprisingly, after waiting for about a minute, Director Choi Seong-moon's party came in after the audition.

"Aren't we a little early?"

"It was about 20 minutes early, but Manager Kim reserved a room. They say it's room 5...

Director Choi Seong-moon and Director Ga Eun-soo took the lead, and after that, Pyo Eun-mi, CEO Kim Moon-dong, and CEO Shin Shin-ki walked together.

It was then.

Director Choi Seong-moon, who made eye contact with me, tilted his head.

uh. what? Why is Manager Lee Tae-poong here?"

Oh. I liked the beef pine nut porridge here, so the typhoon came to give me some relief."

Director Choi Seong-moon smiles, saying it's nice.

haha. Yes. Beef pine nuts here are awesome. I also say that sometimes it's better than meat. Yes. How many rooms do you have?"

"We are in room number four."

Five. so? Right next door."

Director Choi Seong-moon chuckled, saying it went well, and director Ga Eun-soo cut off the conversation to get out.

"Jeong is eating well too. We have an appointment."

At that time, director Choi Seong-moon stepped in.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I'd like to talk to Typhoon for a moment, how about you? Do you have time?"

Then yes.

He showed that level of acting, but if it goes like this, he's not the best Choi Seong-moon.

Things were going easier than I thought.

"There are times when the director doesn't have time

have to pay Lots of time!"

her! That friend is kind."

Of course, some people are not happy with this situation.

Director Ga Eun-soo, who had a sign of embarrassment, hurriedly approached director Choi Seong-moon and began whispering in his ear.

However, director Choi Seong-moon frowned.

You're a little weird today. Is there any reason why I shouldn't meet Typhoon?

Director Choi Seong-moon stared at him, and director Ga Eun-soo quickly bowed his head.

"Well, it's not like that. Director."

Director Choi Seong-moon urged me to go to our room because there was still time.

Anyway, rooms 4 and 5 could be opened and closed with sliding doors, so it didn't matter where I went.

When the door of room 4 was opened, the party that was just about to grill the meat jumped up from their seats.

"Come on, Director!"

"Heh heh heh. I was next door. sit down. sit down.

The staff of gu gu gu came in and called number 4

I opened the sliding door connected to the room.

In an instant, rooms 4 and 5 opened up and became a long room.

After a brief greeting.

While drinking pre-dinner tea, director Choi Seong-moon started asking questions to Lee Tae-poong.

"By the way, there is a typhoon. It was completely different. What happened to make that change?"

Tae-poong Lee responds with a straight posture.

"I tried."

"Heh heh heh. With effort, such smoke

When it comes out, will all Koreans become actors? There must have been some unfamiliar reason."

Director Choi Seong-moon, who was smiling wildly, began to ask questions about his acting in the past.

As expected, director Choi Seong-moon was deeply interested in this typhoon.

At that moment, Ga Eun-soo, the head of the department, stopped Choi Seong-moon.

"Director. Let's talk for a while...

Director Choi Seong-moon tilted his head at Director Ga Eun-soo's strange attitude.

why? just do it here

"It's something that's hard to say for others to hear."

Director Choi Seong-moon, who was making an impression, stood up.

"It's true. You're just annoying me today. okay. I have to go to the bathroom anyway, so listen on the go."

When Director Ga Eun-soo took Director Choi Seong-moon out, Director Pyo Eun-mi led the conversation.

The rest of the judges also asked questions about this typhoon from time to time.

Again, the smoke I saw earlier seemed to impress me quite a bit.

About 3 minutes passed.

The sliding door opened and director Choi Seong-moon entered again.

However, unexpected words came out of director Choi Seong-moon's mouth.

"Typhoon. I'm sorry. You guys change seats. I think it would be uncomfortable for each other to eat in the next room like this."

It's an obvious blessing.

At the director's face, which had changed in an instant, everyone who had been waiting had a bewildered expression on their faces.

A tense atmosphere flowed.

Director Ga Eun-soo exclaimed with excitement one after another.

"Come on, what are you doing?"

But I ignored Director Ga Eun-soo's words and persevered.

Because director Choi Seong-moon's personality has never looked back on the person he doesn't want to see once, so if he steps back like this, there will be no chance.

I asked Director Choi Seong-moon why.

"If we made a mistake, we

Please rebuke me. I will fix it."

"Should I put it into words?"

When director Choi Seong-moon made an uncomfortable expression, Ga Eun-soo, who was beside him, stopped talking.

"Oh, you are really persistent]. You really don't know?

Yes. I don't know, so I'm not sure. Why are you doing this all of a sudden?"

Director Ga Eun-soo shouted loudly.

"That's Lee Tae-poong! It's a camera bump! Do you cheat on it and audition? What are you going to do if it turns out to be in the main filming?"

for a moment.

Do you know camera hoarseness?

Only the members of Actor Room 2 know about it?

'Who spilled it!'

But before we could find out who leaked it, we had to deal with this situation.

If there was such a misunderstanding, there was an easy way to solve it.

"Who is it? Our typhoon is called Ulleongjeung?"

"Uh-huh! this friend? say that

You must!"

Yes. Wouldn't it be unfair to be misunderstood by such a lie?"

Director Choi Seong-moon coughs in vain.

"Hmmmm."

Director Ga Eun-soo flirted with director Choi Seong-moon's eyes.

"Where is that? I heard that Daecheon Group is also receiving sponsors. Why don't you tell me this is also nonsense?

This is a story that only the actors 2 rooms knew.

When this is done, who knows

It looked like it had to be found from where it was spilled.

Not only director Choi Seong-moon, but also director Pyo Eun-mi, who was by his side, and investors and distributors frowned.

Sponsored actors were no different from time bombs.

"It happened . Somehow, the manager was reluctant to go."

Things get worse.

Tae-poong Lee tried to explain, but I raised my hand to stop him.

Because that's what I have to do.

I looked at the director Ga Eun-soo and said,

all.

"Did Chief Kim say that?"

"Whoever said it, what does it matter?"

"Important. Since the lead role has already been appointed by Director Kim Dong-soo, I also heard a warning not to hit him. So now I need to know from whom I heard the story. Go Chief!"

I openly bumped into Director Ga Eun-soo.

Although Ga Eun-soo has been the production manager for 10 years

I knew it was related to director Choi Seong-moon, but for now, I had to explain it somehow.

Only then can I hold onto even the tiniest hope.

Fortunately, director Choi Seong-moon gave me the reaction I had hoped for.

"Wait, is it my love? What do you mean? As the director, I am still thinking, who decides the lead role?"

When Director Choi Seong-moon looked suspiciously at the investor and distributor, the two quickly shook hands.

that they are not

Then, director Choi Seong-moon looks at me this time.

"Dae-ri Jeong. Words that come out of your mouth are irreversible. know?

I nodded.

"Yes, Director. Even if I can't play the lead role, I must solve Oh Hae. It's so embarrassing like this! How hard was our typhoon Lee!"

I wondered if there was something strange about my fierce protest, and Pyo Eun-mi, the head of the office, alluded to it.

"Let's hear the situation."

"Chief Pyo!"

Despite Ga Eun-soo's harsh rebuttal, Pyo Eun-mi remained calm.

"Are you trying to keep me from hearing an explanation? Mr. Ga. Are you feeling a little weird today?"

Nice assist.

Pyo Eun-mi, who is famous for being strict, will be able to help me like this.

Director Choi Seong-moon took a seat and gulped down the cold dongchimi.

I had a heart for Lee Tae-poong, but when the situation turned out like this, I felt upset.

Yes. There may be unfortunate circumstances there too, so let's hear it first."

"First of all, if you are talking about the sponsorship of Daecheon Group Vice Chairman Kim Ae-ja, the typhoon has nothing to do with it. Because I rejected the proposal myself."

"How do you believe that?"

"Daecheon Group Vice Chairman, do you not know your style? Sponsoring actors are given advertisements right away. It was April when Vice Chairman Kim Ae-ja came to our typhoon. It is already mid-May."

"That's not enough."

I gave up the recorded file and stopped thinking.

Knowing that the file exists, Vice Chairman Kim Ae-ja, you don't know how that crazy woman will come out.

"Then you change your mind. If you get a lead role, if you receive an advertisement from Daecheon Group or if you receive a sponsorship from Vice Chairman Kim Ae-ja! I will sign the contract to pay compensation for any damage caused by it. "

I never got involved with the Daecheon Group, and when I said that I would not get involved in the future, director Choi Seong-moon quietly said no to me.

I try

"Can you take responsibility for that?"

"If anything, please check with our general manager."

As if something was going on in the strange atmosphere, Director Ga Eun-soo rushed in.

"Well, then, camera hoarseness! It's a scam to hide that and come to the audition! What if I go back to the same filming as before, trembling and trembling?"

I tried my best to get angry when I saw the face of Director Ga Eun-soo, who had become weak again.

comforted

To explain this, I had to describe the symptoms of Lee Tae-poong.

When I turned my head, Tae-poong was nodding his head.

Permission was denied to reveal the truth.

I took a deep breath.

Then, looking at Director Ga Eun-soo, he slowly opened his mouth with a sharp voice.

'Now it's your turn, Gaeun-soo!'
