From a supporting role to a top actor with a genius face, episode 274

Chapter 35. The World (7)

“…Still, it doesn’t make sense for the viewer ratings to change.”

Representative Ong shook his head.

No matter how much I thought about it, there was not even the slightest possibility of viewer ratings manipulation.

It wasn’t a problem that could be solved simply by purchasing a company that conducted viewer ratings research.

It was likely that people in the industry were widely entangled.

But if that really happened… … .

‘This isn’t something that can be resolved with just one representative’s neck. The entire Glom could be blown away.’

Representative Ong’s head was complicated.

is a blockbuster film with a production cost of over 10 billion won.

A significant portion of the production cost was invested by Glom Entertainment.

If this work fails, Gloam Entertainment could be shaken to its core… … .

‘Still, this kind of unreasonable thing doesn’t make sense.’

Because it didn’t make sense with Representative Ong’s common sense.

Taeil, wearing a top, stood in front of the mirror.

Taeil, wearing a spandex suit, asked CEO Ong.

“Is the color okay?”

“It’s the outfit that Siha chose for me. It would be hard for it not to suit me.”

When Representative Ong twitched his lips, Taeil shrugged.

“That’s right. Let’s not waste our time worrying about useless things, that’s it.”

“…….”

Taeil looked at the embarrassed CEO Ong beyond the mirror.

“You know very well what kind of person Representative Won, or rather, Won Jeong-ju, is.”

“Suddenly that… Ah.”

A thought crossed Representative Ong’s mind.

Won Jeong-ju, the founder of Glom Entertainment.

He hates failure and absolutely hates anyone standing in front of him.

This was also the reason why he founded Glom Entertainment with his friends but ended up going it alone.

and…….

“I was also obsessed with Lime Entertainment.”

“Ahem.”

Representative Ong could not deny it.

Because he knew better than anyone that CEO Won had tried every means possible to get his hands on Seungchan Kim’s Lime Entertainment.

Standing in front of the mirror, Taeil continued speaking calmly.

“That man, Wonjeongju, really hated having his family’s halo over his business.”

“He is a self-made man, strictly speaking. However, whether he knows it or not, his family’s influence played a role in his expansion into business. He has a complex about that.”

Representative Ong stuck out his tongue.

I also wondered why Eun Tae-il knew this fact, but that wasn’t important right now.

Taeil continued speaking as he left the front door.

“CEO Won, Won Jeong-ju took the business away from CEO Jang, who had started the business together with him.”

“There was a lot of talk back then. It wasn’t like CEO Jang was bad at it…….”

“At that time, Chairman Won did not use his family’s power. He persuaded the shareholders directly.”

Even when a knife was put to his neck, Representative Won did not use his family’s power.

At that time, Representative Ong spoke quietly.

“Acquisition of Lime Entertainment.”

Representative Ong’s expression as he mentioned the past was not very bright.

There was a bitter smile on Taeil’s face as he went down the stairs.

‘Representative Won was persistent. He even received help from his family.’

Won Dae-pyo tried to acquire Kim Seung-chan’s Lime Entertainment by any means necessary.

Because of this, Seungchan Kim had to go to great lengths to defend his management rights.

While persuading celebrities who wanted to leave Glom Entertainment, I also had to take care of the internal atmosphere.

In the midst of all that chaos, something happened between my friend and my wife.

‘Is it time to sort things out?’

Taeil got into the car and looked out the window.

As my new life began, I had no desire to get involved with them.

But their behavior is constantly intertwined with us, directly and indirectly.

“What are you going to do?”

Taeil closed his eyes.

“Lee Seung-ah, manager.”

At Taeil’s quiet words, Representative Ong nodded as if he understood immediately.

“Lee Seung-ah has many enemies. She’s so stupid.”

“All right.”

Taeil made up his mind.

It’s time to sort things out with those who are entangled in my new life.

Wheeing-

An empty lot where a cold wind blows unusually.

Nearly 50 extras gathered around a drum, their collars buttoned up tightly.

“Ugh, why is it so cold today?”

“You didn’t say it was cold today…….”

“Look at those guys wrapped up tight.”

The extras looked with envy at the staff’s Eskimo-like fashion.

“Okay! Did you hear about today’s filming?”

“yes…….”

In front of the campfire, the foreman leading the extras shouted into a megaphone.

The extra actors’ expressions weren’t that good.

‘I’m going to freeze to death today.’

‘If you take pictures like this, shouldn’t you say something?’

‘Why are you filming spring in winter?’

The extras’ faces were filled with discontent, but no one listened to their complaints.

The scene we’re shooting today is a festival, an outdoor performance venue.

A scene where Jun and Seongtae are glaring at each other among people.

Among the people enjoying the festival, Seongtae laughs at Jun who is glaring at him, and Jun chases after Seongtae.

The problem is time.

The time in the play is spring, when the festival is held.

The reality is winter, with a cold wind blowing.

‘I have to finish this quickly.’

Kim Joo-won felt the unpleasant atmosphere on set firsthand.

Although the faces of extra actors are rarely shown on camera, the atmosphere they create is bound to have an impact.

Taeil also bowed his head, perhaps feeling sorry towards the other actors.

“Senior. We should rehearse hard and finish the actual filming quickly.”

“I think the same way.”

Kim Joo-won nodded at Tae-il’s words.

At least you can wear a winter coat during rehearsals.

“Since there is no dialogue, we need to convey the message more clearly.”

I chose today because it was said to be a warm day.

Director Lee Cheol-gi glared at the production manager who had set the schedule.

The production manager behind the camera didn’t even look this way.

“…Let’s go to rehearsal.”

“I’m going to rehearsal!”

The extra actors stood looking at the performance venue.

Taeil stood in the same direction as them, and Kim Joo-won turned his body in the opposite direction.

“Let’s finish this quickly.”

“…Yeah. Eeeeek.”

The extras smiled weakly, their bodies shaking.

The camera rolled and Taeil glared at Kim Joo-won.

Kim Joo-won, who was receiving a sharp gaze, shook the corners of his eyes as if mocking Tae-il.

Between the two people, people whose focus was out of focus moved busily.

“…….”

“…….”

Beyond the people shaking their bodies vigorously, Taeil and Kim Joo-won glared at each other.

Soon, Taeil ran towards Kim Joo-won, hurting the dancers.

Kim Joo-won leisurely waved his cell phone at Tae-il and placed it in front of the stage.

‘Fortunately, direction doesn’t seem to be necessary.’

Director Lee Cheol-gi, who was looking closely at the monitor, nodded his head coolly.

The camera director who follows Taeil’s back is also a veteran among veterans.

There were no technical problems either.

“It’s, it’s cold…….”

“Ugh…….”

The problem is the extras shivering in the cold.

Even though they were wearing coats, they were shivering violently.

Director Lee Cheol-gi was worried whether he would be able to take good pictures since he would soon have to take off his coat.

“Spring, it’s spring! Let’s get this over with!”

Director Lee Cheol-gi, holding the megaphone, shouted loudly as if encouraging everyone.

But the reply I got back was weak.

The team leader in charge of the extras also tried to encourage them, but the mood just wouldn’t change.

‘I guess I’ll have to go in the direction of not showing my face as much as possible.’

To get it done in one go, a long rehearsal followed.

How much time has passed like that?

“Action-!”

The camera lights up.

Kim Joo-won and Seong-tae looked at Jun from afar and held their phones to their ears.

Seongtae’s face, which stood opposite the people, was filled with a deep sneer.

Wheeing-

“Cut!”

The sound of the wind blowing against the boom mic caused an NG.

There was a moment of annoyance on the extras’ faces, but their emotions quickly disappeared.

They knew.

That there is no one here who can accept their feelings.

“Right here. Action-!”

The wind noise died down and filming resumed immediately.

Seongtae was laughing at Taeil and Jun among the people.

Jun pushed his way through the crowd and desperately advanced towards Seongtae.

“…….”

As if mocking Jun, Seongtae placed his cell phone on the stage with a leisurely gesture… … .

Wheeing-

At that moment, the sound of the wind struck again.

“Cut-!”

Wheeing-

The boomman holding the boom mic swayed back and forth in the continuous wind.

The simultaneous recording director, who had been wearing a headset until the end, took off the headset and shook his head at Director Lee Cheol-gi.

“Let’s take a quick break.”

The wind showed no sign of abating.

People gathered around the campfire, their coats tightly fastened.

But the wind blew through people’s clothes, making them shiver with cold.

‘… … .’

Taeil, who was watching the extra actors shivering in the cold, winked at CEO Ong.

When Taeil whispered in his ear, Representative Ong’s eyes widened.

‘Mr. Taeil. Are you really telling me to do that?’

‘Yes. The weather is giving us a good night’s sleep.’

‘Oh, that’s right. I understand. There was a place that was contacting me at the time.’

Leaving Tae-il behind, who was looking puzzled, Representative Ong left the scene.

After a while, the wind died down.

The grumbling actors stood up and filming resumed.

“Action-!”

The camera lights up and Taeil and Jun arrive in front of the stage where they are hurting people and the cell phones are placed.

Taeil, holding the cell phone, looked around, but the owner of the phone had already disappeared.

“…….”

Director Lee Cheol-gi slowly raised his hand as he confirmed that Jun’s face biting his lip was zoomed in on the monitor.

“Okay. Now…….”

As it seemed like the filming would continue for a while longer, people’s faces began to show signs of fatigue.

Although he felt the atmosphere was not good, Director Lee Cheol-gi had to push ahead.

Mobilizing people also requires money.

If you can’t finish it on the same day, the production cost will double.

“Eun Tae-il said the scene was okay. It’s no joke.”

“There’s no kidding today. I think I’m going to lose.”

“I’m posting today.”

As the extras grumbled in front of a burning drum, a one-ton truck arrived on the scene.

The truck door opened, and a man in a suit got out along with the driver.

“Mr. Eun Tae-il, are you there?”

As Taeil approached, the man in the suit bowed his head.

“I received a call from CEO Ong. He asked me to sponsor our clothing.”

“What I wanted was to buy it…….”

The man in the suit smiled broadly as he looked at Taeil who was looking bewildered.

“I am honored to be able to sponsor Mr. Eun Tae-il.”

VK, one of the best outdoor brands in Korea.

VK’s marketing director personally brought the sponsored clothing.

Carry enough clothes to clothe everyone here.

“Can I really wear this?”

“Eun Tae-il, you’re sponsoring it?”

Taeil, of course, as well as the extra actors and staff who had the jumper on, were all dumbfounded.
