Chapter 43:Its a Shame That a Person With This Much Talent Has to be Suppressed (1/2)

”Did you listen to noona's words?” asked Mi Sun after ending her lecture.

”Yes noona, thanks for worrying about me. Noona is the best!” Ethan said with a smile.

”Then I'll go inside first, okay? I put my cellphone on the dashboard of our car,” he continued.

”Yeah yeah, go see the director,” Mi Sun replied, Ethan, nodded and finally went inside while Mi Sun headed towards the car parking lot.

After arriving at the car and finding Ethan's cellphone, Mi Sun saw that the cellphone's notification led light was on.

Curious, Mi Sun pressed the power button and saw notifications including, missed calls and chats from the Line application.

”Agung NamTech? Isn't that uncle's company name?” Mi Sun thought. She then pressed the notification to open the chat.

”This kid! He didn't even give his phone a password. What if he dropped or lost his phone and someone else just picked it up and looked through it?” Mi Sun thought, shaking her head. That kid is too naive!

After locking the car door, Mi Sun returned to the filming set to inform him that there is a message from Agung and because the message is in Indonesian, Mi Sun doesn't understand what it means.

Carolina was sitting in front of her laptop that she'd had since college. She does have two laptops, one for her ”work” which is expensive and has the latest tech, and one that she uses for college, which is not too costly and good enough to be used for college.

Her fingers danced across the keyboard while she was completing her college assignment using Microsoft Word.

”The benefits of practical work, hmm… I don't think there's any benefit for me,” Carolina muttered after arriving at a question asking about the benefits of practical work.

Since Yui was still tracking down the work Carolina had asked her to do, Carolina wasn't in the mood to watch anime right now, so she decided to make a practical work proposal that she would have to submit next week.

She had finished writing down the background, problem formulation, goals, and problem boundaries about what she would do later. However, when she came to the benefits of practical work, she was confused.

She had no idea what benefits she would get from practical work.

Knowledge? She's smarter than them.

Work experience? Well, the side job she's doing can be considered work experience.

”Well, let's just write it down instead of writing nothing,” Carolina ultimately thought. Just as she was about to type something, Yui's voice sounded.

”Mama, I have finished selecting posts on the internet about Ethan Nam / Nam Ethan / Ethan oppa / oppa Ethan and NamTech, and 167,088 posts match the keywords you gave me. Do you still want Yui to monitor the latest posts that match your keywords?” Yui asked.

”Shit! Are there that many? How many fans of the red apple are there?” thought Carolina. Even though it has barely been 24 hours since the news appeared, there are already so many posts circulating on the internet.

”It's okay, Yui, good job,” Carolina said. She then saved the practical work proposal document that she was working on, turned off the laptop, and took out her other laptop.

Taking care of the mess the red apple caused is more important than writing a practical work proposal. She also couldn't allow Yui to delete the posts because she had to be careful to disguise her methods and tracks so that other hackers wouldn't know that it was her.

”Looks like I'm going to be really busy today,” Carolina said, placing her fingers on the keyboard, starting to typing something. She plans to maintain the first published social media post about Ethan and NamTech.

”CUT!” The director who saw the scene on the monitor screen smiled with satisfaction because they finally shot the scene without making any mistakes.

It was the scene when Sung Woo, the character played by Ethan, was bullied by his old friends behind the school building. Sung Woo fought back when he got harassed. However, he ultimately lost because it was 4 on 1.

After the 4 bullies left, the girlfriend Sun Woo tried to cut off appeared and attempted to take care of him. But again, Sung Woo, who was afraid of being betrayed because he is currently poor, chooses to speak cruelly to the woman. Although, in his heart, he knows that he misses his girlfriend, his first love.

”Is my expression correct, director?” Ethan asked, wanting to know if he was doing his acting right.

”Yeah, you played it right. With this, you can see for yourself,” said the director, who proceeded to show Ethan the scene earlier.

Ethan looked at the monitor in front of him seriously, and as the director said, there was nothing wrong with his acting or his other acting partners, but he felt like it wasn't his best.
