Rockstar Again - Chapter 112



Only Noblemtl

Episode 112. Who We Are (2)

Should I start working out seriously?

Or something like boxing?

A beggar who punches someone in the nose before getting grabbed by the collar.

“after…….”

As I let out a long breath, Lars Roemer glances at me.

“What are you looking at?”

“… … How’s your neck? I’m… … a bit choleric… … so I made a mistake.”

Why do I hate seeing you so much while you’re still hesitating?

If Tae-joo hyung hadn’t caught me in a hurry, I think I would’ve really gotten hit.

When you lose your hair, do you lose your patience too?

The common denominator between Nureongi Beomseok and these two people is that they have a particularly low level of patience…

There is a huge uproar, and an awkward silence falls over the calm recording studio.

They said they wanted to collaborate, but they came to me and grabbed me by the collar and tried to beat me up. If they had any conscience, they would keep their mouths shut…

Why are we quiet?

Even though he is the head of our company, he looked at Gu Seol-ryeong with that kind of attitude, and Gu Seol-ryeong smiled awkwardly.

“… … You’re really amazing… … Our Dong-ha?”

“I don’t think there’s anything that I’ve heard that’s particularly great musically right now?”

“… … I guess it’s a talent to do that regardless of age, gender, or East or West?”

“What the hell are you talking about? An artist almost died, and a company CEO couldn’t help but just watch. Is that all you can say?”

“Do you think of me as your representative?”

“sure.”

I hate seeing the Savior’s face turn red at my words.

Oh my.

This room is full of yin and yang harmony.

To our members, whom I have wanted to see and still want to see.

The rest of them are people who just look at you and frown for no reason.

Secretary Hong Seon-ah is like that too.

I’m not going to call you “sister” anymore.

“… … .”

When I squint my eyes and look at Secretary Hong Seon-ah, she shrugs her shoulders as if to ask why.

“Why am I looking at this?”

“Haven’t you learned anything like martial arts?”

“?”

“Usually, when you’re a secretary, you also have to act as a bodyguard, right? Oh my, really, everyone. How much do I earn, and I get grabbed by the collar by a short, balding white old man.”

“This… … Mother XX… … !”

When Lars Roemer, who was pretending to be a little sorry, started swearing again, I looked at him and saw the interpreter named Michael Jung, who was standing next to Lars Roemer, looking at the ceiling and making a fuss.

“You even interpret things like this, now? You seemed to be thinking about it earlier. What do you mean by refined conversation?”

“… … I’m the one who has to do it if our artists want me to… … haha… … .”

Okay.

I, the good one, have to endure it.

But this one thing just kept coming out of my mouth again.

Lars Roemer kindly speaks in English so that we can hear without an interpreter.

No, I’m very patient, aren’t I?

Look how considerate you are now!

I thought it would be a hassle to have it conveyed through an interpreter, so I spoke in English myself.

“Even if a creator who has lost his sense of humor comes to me and makes a shameless request to produce a work, or if he makes a rude request to busy people who have no thought to stand on his stage, what can I do but endure it as a good person?”

Everyone looks at me with their eyes wide open.

Tae-joo was interpreting for Young-pil and Dong-sik in real time.

“… … .”

Lars Roemer’s face turned red and he said nothing.

“I’m sorry. It was our mistake.”

Kirk Schmidt, who had some manners, gave a rather oriental greeting.

Bowing your head slightly.

Look at this.

People who are confident about their hair have good manners, right?

A beggar who is confident in his position.

“Well… … If you apologize first, I’ll apologize too. You shouldn’t call an idiot an idiot. I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings.”

“Dong-ha, do you know how great those people are?”

The Savior breathed hot air into my ear.

I barely managed to hold back the trembling in my butt and answered as if nothing had happened.

“I know. If I said I didn’t know, I’d be lying.”

“But why are you so stiff? Isn’t this a good opportunity?”

“They think they’re above us. It’s a big opportunity, so grab it. That kind of thing. I don’t like that kind of thing.”

pride?

Well, you could say that.

But if you are confident in your abilities, it is not just stubbornness, it is self-confidence.

I was confident.

Because there is still no time to create the space and depth to hide one’s confidence.

So that’s just an expression.

“… … Okay. Boy… … No, musician Dong-ha… … Lee. We made a mistake this time, so let’s get up now. I thought it would be a pleasant meeting, but it wasn’t.”

With that said, Kirk Schmidt stood up, taking Lars Roemer’s arm.

So what did I do?

I heard my Juliet next to me.

Since I often play outside of the recording studio, it was already connected to the amplifier.

He started playing towards the two members of Metal Road who were turning their backs.

There is no Jeonju.

Because it has to be stuck in the other person’s ear in an instant.

Straight to the highlight part.

A fast-paced performance with strong distortion and the characteristic zinging sound of an electric guitar.

A simple, yet powerful riff stretched from the guitar and flew through the speakers.

It was stuck in the backs of two members of Metal Road.

Of course, music has to have a narrative.

I don’t think you’ll be immediately moved by just hearing the highlights.

but.

“Oh my god… … .”

Lars Roemer slowly turns away.

With a distorted expression, unable to go anywhere.

He stopped playing and smiled brightly.

“how is it?”

“… … You son of a bitch. You’re a real devil… … .”

“Isn’t that good?”

“… … .”

I think I’ve heard enough answers.

I just heard you play the guitar briefly.

If you are a drummer.

You will probably imagine a scene so vividly that you could almost call it a must.

The sound of drums pouring down over the intense metal sound.

Himself banging that drum.

“This is too hard for us to use, so we kept it. Would you like to negotiate it again?”

It’s true.

I thought it was pretty well made, but there’s something called a band’s color.

It’s a song that Taeju hyung and I happened to come across while making random music. It didn’t suit us, so we pushed it aside.

It’s strange to say that they kept it hard while pursuing hard rock, but it’s easy to think that if it’s harder than hard rock, it’s heavy metal.

It’s not a perfect definition, but let’s make a light distinction.

“… …What do you need?”

“There’s nothing like that. I think that’s what happens in hip-hop? Respect?”

“Reese… … Peck?”

“Yes. Instead of giving opportunities to the band below as if you were doing them a favor. Give what you have to give and take what you have to take at an equal level. In such negotiations, there will be respect for the other party. Because the level of the other party will be the same.”

Kirk Schmidt and Lars Roemer whispered to me for a while, and then suddenly started laughing like crazy people.

and.

“Not all 21st century kids are like you, right?”

“I don’t know.”

The child may still be fit, but he is not a 21st century child.

Lars Roemer took his seat again.

“You remind me of those days. When all these arrogant geniuses were out and about.”

“It means good things, right?”

“Wow. I feel like I’ve gotten younger.”

hmm.

I think it would be okay to give him at least one song, just by looking at what he’s doing.

[Blue Porcelain. Secret contact with Metallord? Why?]

[Metal Road’s Secret Visit to Korea. There Was Only One Reason?! ‘We Came to See Blue Porcelain.’]

[Meeting of rock legend Metallord and Korean rock rising star Blue Porcheline.]

It has been four days since I witnessed the absurd negotiation scene under the leadership of Lee Dong-ha.

Cheong-A Entertainment building.

The Savior was amazed at the pouring articles.

“Seon-ah.”

“Yes, sir.”

“There are more than one or two things I fell for Dong-ha. But, you know. What do you think surprised me the most?”

Hong Seon-ah frowned as she watched Gu Se-ryeong continue to scroll through her tablet.

“Um… … Well? Genius?”

“You’re wrong. He’s a genius, but that’s not what surprised me the most.”

“Then… … handsome? That… … different from the current vibe, including the sexy vibe that comes from looking young… … right?”

This time, a wrinkle appeared between the Savior’s eyes.

“You… … have you been looking at Dong-ha like that until now?”

“… … No. It’s not me. That’s objectively true. That’s why Dongha has a cult following unlike other idols… … .”

“Okay. Oh my, that’s why you always told me not to look at Dong-ha like that. Anyway, that’s not true either.”

“Then?”

Gu Seol-ryeong stood up from his seat as he listened to Hong Seon-ah’s words.

“I told you that I see something like light in celebrities. Do you believe that, now?”

“Yes. Because you’ve shown me so far? Of course, I still think that’s how you express things like images and feelings.”

“Yeah. You figure that out yourself. Anyway, when you meet people who emit light, there’s something like that?”

“?”

“There are some who are more handsome than the one who shines. There are some who act better than him. Singing? Dancing? There are many who are better at those things too. But. People who shine get attention no matter what they do. They catch people’s attention.”

“hmm…….”

The old man turned around and clasped his hands together in an exaggerated manner, as if he were performing a play.

“But. Dong-ha is different.”

“At a level that catches the eye… …?”

“Yeah! His very existence is aggro. He attracts aggro to the whole world.”

“… … Well… … . I found out that Metallord is a legend among legends. It would be hard for even the god of aggro to meet someone like that and get grabbed by the collar in 30 minutes. Usually, he wouldn’t even come looking for you.”

“That’s why. Look at it now. I gave the okay sign to catch Dong-ha, but how on earth should I promote those members, how should I promote this… … I thought about it all night? But promotion? He does it all by himself. He fights with the contestants and draws aggro. He gathers fans with his skills. He covered his face, so I wondered why he was hiding his good looks, but it actually made more of a bang—! impact. He drew aggro from the entire nation, and now the rock legend has come to visit on his own. And it’s all in the news. What’s this guy?”

Hong Seon-ah also burst into laughter as she watched the admiring Gu Se-ryeong.

The boss I serve is a savior.

The work that the Salvation Army does is the entertainment business.

The group that the Savior was most interested in was Blue Porcelain, so he often watched them.

So, I definitely agree with one thing.

‘Move… … This isn’t normal. This isn’t true.’

When I’m with the Savior, I have to focus on the Savior, but I’ve lost my gaze to Lee Dong-ha more than once.

Like treating Chairman Yoon Tae-joo like the neighborhood idiot by just throwing things at him.

Wouldn’t you break the arm of Koo Se-ryeong, who is a celebrity to everyone and the CEO of his own company?

Then, if you sing another song, it grabs your attention and doesn’t let you go.

Jiying―.

Even though she was in the middle of a conversation, Hong Seon-ah checked her phone due to a short vibration.

Since my job is as a secretary, I have to check my phone from time to time.

“… … Two Metal Lords uploaded Stargrams at the same time.”

#rockwillneverdie #resurrection

A photo with Blue Porcelain members, with some tags.

[Confirmed that rock is not dead. Pay attention. Here is the next rock star who will rule the world.]

Even the phrases are wrapped in ridiculously grandiose packaging.

Goo Se-ryeong checked Hong Seon-ah’s cell phone and laughed breathlessly.

That day of tumultuous negotiations.

Details such as financial arrangements for the song or the timing of its provision.

Putting aside any agreements regarding Metal Road’s upcoming world tour, this is what Idongha was asking for.

―Be respectful in front of people. Then I’ll give you that amazing song you just heard.

Even though Lars Roemer, famous for his pride, ran wild, there was nothing he could do.

That short performance was that good.
