Chapter 144

Episode 144

Wiz Entertainment Korea headquarters in Sangsu-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul.

“So... you mean this is all a schedule?”

“For now, yes, but all schedules are entirely determined by Damian-sama’s will, so you don’t have to worry too much about it.”

When Jin-seong looked at the papers on the table and asked, Sung-hoon smiled. The conference room, covered with opaque film on three sides, was filled with the open view of the Han River.

The A4 paper, colored by the sunset of the Han River view, contains the partnership with a famous sports apparel multinational company and a restaurant franchise.

From a one-off collaboration at a small scale to an exclusive familyship contract at a large scale, the A4 papers in front of Jinseong’s eyes contained quite a lot of content.

These were grandiose contracts for a first partnership.

“Is it okay for me to do this? It’s a company that I’ve only heard of the name, so I can’t judge well. It doesn’t seem to fit in the fountain...”

“I filtered out the parts that could be burdensome due to the schedule. Among them, these companies have maintained a good relationship with the Switch headquarters, and they are also companies that have shown interest in Damian and contacted him first. The overall contract terms are also at least twice as high as the industry standard.”

As Seong-hoon continued to explain the contract with a smile on his face, Jin-seong’s gaze flowed along the A4 paper.

It’s just that the terminology is unfamiliar, but it wasn’t that difficult.

Of course, it was possible because there was an explanation like the flow of liquidation from Seong-hoon, the chief PD and the team leader of the content 2 team.

As he said, the fact that the terms of the contract were set at an absurd level was not because of the excellent brand power of the name Demian, but because it was a disprove that Sung Hoon’s discretion was that great.

“Do you have any provisions that are burdensome to you? If you don’t understand or don’t like something, please let me know and I will correct it immediately.”

“no. It’s not like that... I wasn’t sure if it was okay to sign an exclusive familyship contract like this. In order to fulfill the contract with other places, it seems that the relationship with the place where the familyship is concluded should be smooth so that there will be no trouble.... The amount of the contract seems to be the largest.”

“Haha, don’t worry too much about that. Of course, if Damien-nim signs an exclusive familyship contract, there is a rule that he must wear the exclusive brand at official events or events, but since he is the muse and persona of the brand, we guarantee the best treatment. Moreover, Whaley Jacobs, the chairman of Under Army here, is also the younger brother of Alan Jacobs, the CEO of the head office...” “

Wait a minute, the chairman of Under Army is the younger brother of the president of Switch?”

“That’s right. It is also a public fact. I am also a very big fan of Damian.”

Seonghun nodded, and Jinseong widened his eyes. It was also because < Under Army > was one of the top 3 sports apparel brands in the US, and was enthusiastically followed by countless muscle maniacs.

After growing rapidly with strong masculinity and high-performance technicality, he quickly penetrated the athleisure market by dividing the professional and casual lines into two lines.

Moreover, it was only natural that most of Jinseong’s clothes were using Under Army’s products, as the chairman himself was a bone marrow health person who scored 3 to 500.

If there were no restrictions on familyship, I would have wanted to sign a contract right away.

But it’s not enough that the owner of such a favorite brand is Alan Jacobs’ younger brother, and he’s an avid fan of himself that he’s never seen in person

. This is also the reason why Hollywood action star Wallace Stein has been pushing as an exclusive model for a long time. Even the moves that Damian showed through live streaming on Otube and Switch had nothing in common with his taste. You probably don’t know, but it’s not a strict contract clause that enforces exclusive brand regulations even in your daily life. Of course, I will additionally specify the terms and receive feedback from Under Army.”

“aha. okay.”

“Today’s seat is a place to explain how many global companies are paying attention to Damian, and at the same time, it’s a place to explain the overall contracts proposed by those companies, so you don’t have to make decisions right away. It’s also something you have time for. After today, I would like to contact you often about contract confirmation, is that okay?”

“I’m just looking at the team leader’s hardships. Please contact me at any time convenient for you.”

“thank you. It was quite a long time, but I wonder if I took too much of Damian-nim’s time... haha.”

Even more so, when his mansion was built on a private island of about 2,000 pyeong and boasts an enormous size, it could be said that only the sea breeze and the pouring air of the night sky were all that surrounded him.

“Strange. Strange. Strange.”

Except for one doubt that suddenly filled his head.

“Obviously, Evertail has no control over the Akashic Records, a hyper AI. At best, all they can do is use a piece of code to direct the Akashic Records to their liking or get things done before the Akashic Records interfere. Besides, what can they do now that most of the control has been taken back?”

Alan Jacobs put down the tablet and put his hands together. A strange relationship between Evertale and the Akashic Records was flowing through his mind.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is heavenly luck, considering that there were no unusual incidents during the 100 days of open beta.

Moreover, it was natural for Alan Jacobs to be dumbfounded, considering that it was only in sync with the ‘world’ created by the Akashic Records through the means of a capsule.

It was because something outside of common sense was happening so openly.

It is not a normal idea to encode an individual and put it into a program that cannot be controlled.

Even if you say that the Akashic Records do not block the entry of hundreds of millions of humans.

It was because there was nothing more dangerous than that if you didn’t know what hyper AI was and what it was thinking.

By the way...

“Celebrating the 100th day of open beta. Massive updates and events. An island of fierce battles... What does all this mean?”

Talk! Talk!

While Alan Jacobs habitually waved his hands neatly on his stomach, he began to sink into his own thoughts about what he was overlooking.

Although the information he obtained by investing a large part of his floating funds through a parent investment company under the group could not be said to be small.

Even with his financial power, one of the world’s richest people, what the company called Evertail is hiding.

Or, how the Akashic Record was created and how it acts and judges was classified as core confidential information and was not known.

“A hypothesis. Master Hyeok, the head of Oracle and a genius programmer, succeeded in controlling the Akashic Records using some number.”

“Two hypotheses. These madmen are trying to stop predicting the behavior of the Akashic Records and force them to take control by provoking the Akashic Records to abuse the custodian code.”

“Third hypothesis. These guys use hundreds of millions of users as an excuse to induce certain actions in the Akashic Records, while providing unexpected variables to the Akashic Records, which have not shown any movement so far, to observe the data....” “...

Anyone Either way, it’s not a common situation.”

Alan Jacobs stopped talking.

His half-opened eyes headed somewhere in the pouring night sky for the stars.

In the meantime, it’s just a game update, but at least it’s not a simple story for those who have peeked at the reality.

What’s more, for Alan Jacobs, a living legend of Cambridge and a man of unparalleled insight, this night was bound to feel long.

“Gordon? fly. Alan.”

– Yes sir.

“Can you find out one thing? Right now, if that’s all right.”

Before long, Alan Jacobs began fiddling with his wrist and calling someone.
