Chapter 82
"I can't believe everything's going to be okay...".’
As a fan of Jinseok, Yoo Yeon was usually interested in many issues related to him.
From the incident in which KL Entertainment interfered with the production of "Spring Without Flowers" to this "Park Hayeon's abusive recording incident."
None of these events could easily be overlooked.
However, all such cases were solved like water. Scaryly and naturally.
Considering that Jinseok's agency will never be an easy place.
‘Well, that doesn't mean I haven't warned him.'
He wasn't even a person to listen to advice anyway. In the first place, I didn't intend to help Park Kyunghoon, who was unfavorable.
I just wanted to go to the meeting with my manager alone. Because he didn't want to be involved in this for no reason.
Contrary to what Park Kyunghoon thought, something big was going to happen.
***
OS Entertainment's "Kang Jinseok Team".
Jang Sunho was the only team, but he had a considerable amount of work to digest. Jang Sunho mumbled while putting down the documents he had been looking at for a long time.
"There are not many new proposals that came into Jinseok.
From advertising, volunteering, and invitations to events, to suggestions on "selecting representative students from Seoguk University." they wanted Jinseok in various places.
Among them, I was selecting things that would benefit Jinseok, but I didn't really like most of the proposals.
[It's 2 o'clock]
Jang Sunho's cell phone announced the time.
"Is it already 2 o'clock?" We should get going now.’
Today is Jinseok's first advertisement, a meeting with "INSEA," an advertising agency for "Maserati."
It was also an important day for Jang Sunho, so I came with more mental armament than usual today.
"So I heard that the soon-to-be-changing branch manager of Maserati is very close to Mr. Oh.... I'll ask Kang Kyungsik later.'
Jang Sunho put on his overcoat thinking about this and that.
"It could be his first commercial. Should I tell the actor first?"
Jang Sunho fiddled with his cell phone and agonized. Then he shook his head.
Advertisement does not necessarily take place just because an offer is received. There are many cases where there is a breakdown in the middle because they do not agree with each other.
So, it would be better to say it after it's confirmed, even if it's a little late, rather than saying it first and disappointing Jinseok.
Jang Sunho put his cell phone in his pocket.
Then, the moment I was about to leave the office, I got a call from Jinseok at a subtle time.
"Hello?"
[Oh, manager!]! Can you talk on the phone now?]
"Yes. How can I help you?"
[That's...]... I got a call from Yeonsoo. their filming a department promotion video for freshmen next year. Can I participate?]This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
"If you want to promote your department....”
Jang Sunho recalled the "proposal to appear in a promotional video for Seoguk University" that he saw a while ago.
"Are you talking about the school representative video?"
[No, it's not that great]. I guess it's just at the level of our department's student council. I'm not good enough to take a video as a representative of the school.... [Laughing]
Jang Sunho smiled bitterly at the words of Jinseok, who did not know his value at all.
"I think you can do it if you want to. There's a lot of time left until the audition for the next film."
[Yes, if you have any other questions, I'll call you!]
"Please feel free to contact me."
After the call, Jang Sunho headed to the headquarters of INSEA. Looking at the navigation system, there is no traffic today.
There is no traffic, so I should feel good, but Jang Sunho was frustrated by the call with Jinseok a while ago.
"Whoa....”
Jang Sunho sighed deeply when he was caught in the red light.
"Thank you. First of all, the guarantee we're proposing is... Give me the contract, Mr. Yoo Yeon."
"Yes, deputy."
Yoo Yeon gave the contract to Jang Sunho. There was something awkward about the movement.
Park Kyunghoon said with a smile.
"Please check the draft contract. Please take a look and tell me."
"Yes, let me check."
Jang Sunho read the contract one by one.
These contracts were also masterful at the level of a lawyer, so if you were playing with the contents of the contract, he would quickly notice it.
‘But maybe because it's a big company, the contract is clean. Let's look at the amount now.'
Jang Sunho saw an item called "Advertising Model Fee" in the middle of the contract.
——
-Sunday: KRW 150,000,000 (VAT not included)
——
“...?”
As soon as he saw the amount, Jang Sunho was frankly embarrassed. Looking at the ridiculous amount of money, Park Kyunghoon said earlier, "The advertiser is stingy in spending advertising." It felt real.
"That can't be true."
However, Jang Sunho quickly regained his coolness.
They want to save the model fee. It's natural for companies. However, companies have a "face." "Our company spends this much money on advertising models."
However, if it is known that a luxury car brand such as ‘Maserati' has spent only 150 million won on modeling, there is no such shame.
Jang Sunho calmly organized his thoughts.
"Because I'm a practitioner, I'm in a hurry to increase my performance."
According to his judgment, Jinseok's model fee was class B, ranging from a minimum of 200 million to a maximum of 500 million.
Jinseok was hot recently, but he made a judgment from an objective perspective that it would be difficult to receive more than that because he was a "newbie."
150 million... It's a bit hard to cross the line.'
This is an amount that sees not only Jinseok but also himself and even the entire OS entertainment as a "ho-gu".
"If possible, I would just laugh and sign a contract, and I was going to give you good news.... I'm afraid I can't.'
Maserati commercial. If we can, of course we'd better. But that doesn't mean we're being treated like a fool like this.
‘Plus, the first CF guarantee is really important. That will be the starting point for negotiations on the numerous advertising fees that we will be doing in the future. Just like the salary negotiations.'
Jang Sunho, who organized his thoughts, breathed a heavy sigh and put the contract forward to Park Kyunghoon.
Park Kyunghoon asked slylyly as if he didn't know why.
"Is there a problem?"
Jang Sunho, who does not like Park Kyunghoon's attitude, stared at Park Kyunghoon.
As soon as both of their eyes met Park Kyunghoon and Jang Sunho's eyes, who were smiling slyly until a while ago, their expressions hardened.
"When I first met Assistant Manager Park Kyunghoon, I said that Kang Jinseok said he was looking forward to this commercial, right? That's actually a lie."
“..." Lies?"
"Yes, I didn't say anything about the advertisement because I was afraid the agency would offer me a ridiculously low amount or offer me ridiculous terms."
Park Kyunghoon said in a bewildered voice because the life felt in Jang Sunho's eyes was unusual.
"Uh, if you tell me which part you didn't like....”
"Tell me what you want me to say?" Is the guarantee you just suggested that we should have a conversation?"
"That, that."
"Well, that's good. Now that you've said that, I'll ask you a question."
Park Kyunghoon nodded cautiously. The expression was full of embarrassment.
"To the extent that you put my actor in front of the camera for only this much money....”
“....”
"Do we look like a pushover?"
