All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent - All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent chapter 152
152. battlefield pianist (1)
As soon as he pressed the play button, music started playing from the speakers connected to the computer. Harold Weaver closed his eyes and nodded his head to listen to the music.
I had already received the completed script, so I knew which scene this music would go into.
That’s why the scene and the music were playing together in Harold’s head.
The climax of the musical. All conflicts are sutured, and the main character plays the piano and sings with longing and sorrow for the other person.
(ha···.)
When the song ended, Harold let out a breath he had been holding in and put on an ecstatic expression.
(Awesome. This is, really.)
I already checked the piano performance that I played at the wedding hall through Jaeik’s Youtube. But I really thought that song would be the main theme song of this musical.
The main theme I just heard was longer, but the wedding song was probably played with excerpts from some unfinished bright parts of it.
‘Originally, if it wasn’t for that song, I was going to strongly ask for that song to be included as well.’
When I heard it, I could tell for sure.
But the song was so awesome. And at the same time, I started to worry.
‘How on earth do I have to bring a star who sings well to sing this song more perfectly? Could this musical be more perfect?’
In Harold’s mind, the faces of numerous Broadway musical stars floated up and down repeatedly.
I had a strong conviction that if I wasn’t an actor of at least A or S grade by Harold’s standards, I wouldn’t be able to properly digest this song and this emotion.
And at the same time, I was convinced that this would be the best work that surpasses any musical I’ve ever made.
(Ah. Come to think of it, this wasn’t the only thing I prepared.)
(yes?)
Harold tilted his head for an instant. I already wrote the script and I made this amazing song. Didn’t you just prepare this?
Jaeik grinned and played the second song he had composed. Because there were two songs I was talking about in the first place. Of course, the recent trip allowed me to compose more songs, but I didn’t have to. If that were the case, there would be no reason to produce the musical yourself and entrust it to Harold.
And in the second song, before Harold even left, Jaeik continued playing an additional video.
‘Dance yourself?’
The video that came out of the video was definitely a dance. It is also a dance to a musical song.
(scene?)
Obviously, the first person to appear in the video was Song Jae-ik. However, as if the video was being played back and several videos were edited and put together, several Jaeiks were dancing in groups to create a single scene.
While making lines and singing lyrics, showing breath that never shakes even in violent movements.
I knew you were learning to dance. But I thought it was simply to learn the dances used in musicals and to be sure later in the production.
‘Did you learn to choreograph your own? Besides, it’s not a normal skill!’

Looking at the video, this scene was already completed. Because I wanted this scene to go like this. I couldn’t think of a better scene.
(Uh, so.)
Harold hesitated for a moment, unable to find anything to say. It was because the scenes and songs from just before came to my mind so shockingly.
I just thought of him as a person with a lot of talent for this and that.
(This, did you even choreograph by yourself…?)
(Yes, I wonder what it would be like if it felt like this.)
(It’s not like this. It’s already a scene, right?)
no matter how you think
‘They say he’s better at singing and acting than any other musical actor I’ve ever seen?’
Harold’s eyes began to tremble. And soon, as if he had made up his mind, he made a serious expression toward Jae-Ik.
(Do you have any plans to stand on the musical stage?)
The moment he got acquainted with Harold’s question, his expression instantly became strange.
(I’m serious. To be honest, I can’t think of anyone who can pull off this scene so well. Haven’t you already completed a scene? It will be different. You may come to like musical stages. Besides, dancing that fits the situation like this. It’s really cool. It’s even more shocking that you made this by yourself.)
“Puff.”
Kang Seok burst into laughter.
“Puff.”
Additionally, Na Young-jin.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t interested at all, but Jaeik put off his answer for now.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to fully digest my musical talent, but anyway, if I’m on stage, it’ll be for him.
‘Maybe because it’s compatible with talents like singing and acting, it seems like digestion is a bit slow.’
The more digested talents, the slower the digestion and the more synergy with other talents.
Because there were times when a person could display the same amount of talent that was digested twice or more with just one digestion. For example, it feels like the understanding of keyboard instruments goes up after learning the piano 100%.
However, it took a lot of time for such a talent to fully digest.
“Why did you refuse? I think it would be fun to do. How far have you tried, it’s a musical version.”
Na Young-jin also nodded at Kang-seok’s words. If you did, your YouTube video would have come out just fine.
“You didn’t exactly reject me? I was going to think about it. Nothing has been decided yet, and the musical hasn’t even been completed yet, so what are you going to do with it?”
I literally just delayed answering. Of course, I won’t be able to stand on stage many times, but as I thought before, I definitely had the intention of standing on stage at least once.
But that would have been a story after the musical was completed.
Completing a musical did not mean that it would be on Broadway right away, but it was possible to get on Broadway only after going through various rehearsals and previews of test performances.
“I will be here for a while, because I have to set the framework for musical production to some extent.”

Like all my works, I wanted my breath to enter the world I created.
Besides, isn’t musical a completely new challenge? I was definitely interested.
“OK. New York is good. How nice is New York.”
Um Kang-seok smiled as if he was in a good mood. It was New York. Isn’t that New York, the first city to be destroyed when aliens invade?
In other words, it meant that there was not a lot of distance to take a video, so it was overflowing.
“Wall Street, Chinatown, United Nations Headquarters, Stock Exchange Road, Empire State Building, Central Park, Rockefeller Center, Broadway, Statue of Liberty, Yankee Stadium, Madison Square Garden. hey Even if we only shoot vlogs all day, we can do it all week.”
Of course, this would only be possible if Jaeik went out of the hotel often.

The day after the meeting with Harold. After visiting the art studio and buying some art tools that were lacking, Jaeik returned to his lodgings and turned his attention to the painting that was about to be completed.
If I had simply sketched it out with a pencil, I would have sent it a long time ago.
What can I say about the paintings Jaeik has drawn so far? From a third person point of view, it was really realistic. A very well drawn picture.
It was a picture I started drawing from the moment I left Chicago. It’s been a while since I’ve drawn it, but I still need the last piece to complete. color right away.
And while Jaeik was concentrating on the painting, Youngjin Na and Kangseok Eom were waiting for the moment when the painting was completed with their cameras on the stand.
Because Jaeik said the painting would be finished today.
“Whoa.”
Jaeik caught his breath and brushed off the water on his brush. It was for the final work.
The word that is often said to be the peak of the fire. It means to draw a dragon and finally put in the pupils.
Because only that last moment remained.
The background and Dexter Linder were already completed. There is only one part in the painting that I felt lacking in coloring.
It was Ricky.
Jaeik did not color for a long time and just looked at the painting.
continue, continue.
He just stared at it all the time, but Ricky’s coloring was repeated countless times in his head.
It is about what color will end this painting.
After the not-so-long contemplation, Jaeik’s hand moved and Ricky’s sketch began to be colored.
very carefully. carefully. As it was a small painting, Jaeik’s hand movements were careful, but he never stopped.
It was only now that Kang-seok could understand the meaning of the finale. It’s like watching a picture being completed right in front of your eyes. Of course, not only Kang Seok but also Na Young-jin were thinking the same thing.
“Wow, crazy. What is this… How can a painting change like this?”
Until then, it was just a flat, well-drawn picture that seemed to have been seen a lot somewhere.
“ah···”
Na Young-jin was speechless and only let out exclamations.
The image of Ricky coming out holding Dexter Linder’s hand was really lively.
It’s like Ricky coming out of the hospital with a healthy look.
“Awesome.”
I really had nothing to say other than this.
Of course, Jaeik knew at least that the picture was more perfect than any other work he had ever drawn.
Jaeik, who put his name and signature in a corner of the painting, smiled lightly at the ringing in his ears.
Right now, rather than the joy of perfecting his drawing talent, I was more happy to see Ricky who would be happy to receive this painting, that he had completed this painting.
“I’d like to frame this, please.”
Exhausted, Jaeik stood up and handed the painting to Kang-seok.
“don’t worry. I’ll send you to the hospital where Ricky is.”
Jaeik stretched out and lay down on the bed. Should I say that I feel comfortable now that the first and biggest problem has been solved?
Of course, there are still many things that need to be done.
Jaeik lay on the bed and flipped through the pictures on his phone. These and other paintings by Ricky. Because his new content was going to start from here.
—
(It’s really a lot of modification. It’s not just one or two variables.)
With the script, main theme song, and major songs coming out, it took an instant for the overall music to come out, but making a musical was a series of revisions.
It was because I was repeating little by little corrections to match the overall balance of the lines and the music to other songs.
There is only one reason. Because the musical is live.
(Still, it’s really ridiculously fast. If it stretches too long, it really stretches endlessly.)
Harold, who had stretched out from fatigue while adjusting the final script, shook his head.
Usually musicals come this far, at least 14 weeks. Because it took more than 3 months. That’s when it comes without any problems.
But now, this musical took less than two months, so I was already adjusting the final script.
In addition, the behind-the-scenes audition for the leading role was going quite well.
It was to the point where I wondered if it would be possible to produce it in the shortest time among Harold’s own works.
(Let’s say you take a break. Your eyes are so stiff.)
Perhaps it was because he had been looking at the computer all day, Jaeik got up from his chair rubbing his sore eyes. It wasn’t going to end just because I had to do it for a few more hours today.
(By the way, you said that the actor audition is going well, right?)
(That’s right. It’s going smoothly. To be honest, I can’t help but be interested in it. It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much interest. To be honest, the creative musical market has been in a slump these days.)
Anyway, whose work is it? Aren’t you interested
Whether it’s a closed audition or an open audition, it’s a surefire opportunity to become a star.
