Chapter 202: Stop at Nothing, By Any Means (8)
TL: emptycube / ED: Isleidir
It felt like a chicken bone was caught in ed that the title of 'Midas's Hand' has a high strategic value”
”Strategic value?”
”Yeah, in various ways”
CEO Baek Hansung said while tapping on his phone
”To be honest, 'Midas's Hand' is a common expression Entertaine soency, anyone who has been moderately successful should have been called that Myself included”
He showed me his phone Then, to show me, he tapped his screen There was a headline that read, 'W&U CEO Baek Hansung, Ascends as the Midas's Hand of the Entertainment World' It was an old interview article
Like he pointed out, the 'Midas's Hand' title was common in the article column
”But it's rare for those with that title to really ' they touch a hit' For someone to have only had hits with no failures up until now, from what I know, you're the only one Even as a joke, if we created a film based on you, we'd probably be criticized for the lack of realism”
My life story really did lack realis stared at me
”Reporters these days don't use that title often The title 'Midas's Hand' has becoous to you That's why that coic value But about that”
He placed one of his chopsticks upright on the table Then he let go of the top The chopstick fell on the table,a sharp sound
”That value is only effective while you have no failures The moment you fail, it'll cru me to maintain that title?”
By anyabout proactively e?”
”I guess it doesn't sound good?”
”It's not great”
”Like how you are e, the co as possible, so that you don't fail”
To be h risk of failure
”Are you telling me to do whatever the company tells me to do from now on?”
”Is that what it sounds like?”
He tilted his head and said,
”I' to do what the company expects from you as a teaht me up to that position of the title 'Midas's Hand' If that title decidedof that position once I failed
”Is that strategic value why I was quickly promoted to the team leader position?”
”I can't say it didn't have an influence”
CEO Baek Hansung willingly nodded his head
”In the end, this is good for you The coold plate your career This will also be a great investment for your future career”
Oh, really? His words were sweet like honey, but my neck felt stiff It felt like there was a leash on h there's nothing I can do if you're against the project because it's ive it up si out 'projects we should risk' my responsibility?”
”Like I said, this is a sand castle that will crureat I believe we should take the risk?”
”Hand it over to another team's chief If it succeeds, we'll publish an article that you reco replied with a still s my ment…”
”Then…”
His calm voice cut me off,
”I'll be very disappointed in you”
Was it because of this?
Is this why I gave up City Jungle?
Seeing CEO Baek Hansung's reaction, it was obvious that there was no room for persuasion Then how much leeway did I have to make a decision? Did I even have any? His 'I'll be very disappointed' sounded to le, which I gave up, becaret his decision today and change his ht up Cat Guardian Ghost to persuade hie his mind with another one, then he wouldn't have opposed it so definitively this time
He see
If things continued this way, how ive up?
I sighed and raised erly droned In an alley devoid of any trees to provide you with shade, I saw a bunch of one-roohborhood I frequented around this time last year
I knocked on a familiar door Soon, a low voice answered as the door opened Nam Joyoon, with a bite-size peanut cereal bar in his mouth, looked at me with surprise His eyes ?”
”No, I just came over to see if you ate lunch yet”
Nam Joyoon smiled and opened the door wide The inside of his hoh desk stacked with scripts and scenarios If we took them and the laptop out, you wouldn't think someone lived here It would be believable to call this an empty unit ready for someone to move into
”I was just eati- about to eat Did you eat?”
”No, please give h I did eat an astrono, I couldn't remember if it went in h the scenarios spread on the desk Nam Joyoon, who paced back and forth in front of the sink, came over with a troubled expression
”Sunwoo, there is no rice”
”Should I make some?”
”I don't have any rice I definitely had some yesterday Do you want instant noodles?”
So he was planning on si a cereal bar today It was clear as day
”Hyung, why does your living conditions seened?”
Where did all the advanced pay for his movie appearance evaporate to? I heard that he was happy that he didn't have to pay rent every reeh to have meat every meal
Since I sent hi it all on movie tickets like before either
