29 – Stand on top of the boss’s head

Episode 29

“Are you going to pay me 100 million won?”

“Of course I should. I showed you something like that. I’m picky, but I have a conscience.”

Chen Ah-ram shook his head and said.

“It’s been a while since I’ve had to sell my face to stinkers. … Should I buy some motion sickness medicine?”

“Fortunately, the. “I hope those two get some compensation.”

Seeing Seo Soo-yeon feeling relieved, Cheon A-ram said playfully.

“But first, let’s check what Team Leader Seon has prepared. It’s a waste. “I made the board this far.”

Seo Soo-yeon realized that Cheon A-ram was trying to do something again and expressed her disapproval.

“But should we even engage in noise marketing like this? “I question its effectiveness.”

“No one is sure about that. … But it’s definitely worth a try. Considering the quality of the first song, it will definitely become a big issue, right? “They were filming there too.”

“… Instead of that, why not just pay the money right away?”

“no. i want to see What kind of picture does Team Leader Sun draw?”

Seo Su-yeon, who failed to persuade, said as if lamenting a little.

“Chief Chen. I feel it sometimes, but don’t you have a bad personality?”

Cheon Ah-ram smiled at her and said.

“Not a little, but a lot.”

***

The performance continued for over 2 hours with some communication.

While keeping a close eye on Autumn’s neck condition, I told her that the next song was the last song.

Gae-gae sent sympathetic eyes, but agreed that it was time to end the performance.

Before we knew it, Ga Eul had taken on the position of daily MC and had done the work of three along with vocals and guitar, heralding the end of busking.

“I guess I’ll have to do the last song soon.”

When Ga Eul announced into the microphone that this was the last song, the audience roared.

There was an uproar, with people asking people to sing just one more song or already chanting for an encore.

Meanwhile, laughter bloomed in the square thanks to a middle school girl who suddenly shouted, ‘You’re pretty!’

“… Thank you so much. “I will never forget this moment until I die.”

Ga Eul spoke in a slightly hushed voice, perhaps because her nose had become sore looking at such a view.

“I will present the best song I can sing so that those who remain feel rewarded.”

Ga Eul asked me in a whisper while speaking on the microphone.

“Team Leader Seon. Lastly, I want to do the ‘Last Concert’. Are you all right?”

“Then of course. “It’s a song suitable for the finale.”

It was a famous song that was said to be the number one song by Lee Seung-hyun, a member of Korea’s legendary rock band.

It was a song that everyone here of various ages would know.

Autumn’s sense of song selection was truly excellent.

I started the prelude to ‘The Last Concert’ without hesitation.

As the gentle sound of the piano rang, even winter brightened up and played the electric pole with a guitar.

And after the Jeonju, which felt short, ended, Autumn began to sing.

***

The song is over.

However, the crowd did not disappear and were cheering and chanting for an encore.

Autumn was suppressing the overwhelming emotions she felt as she watched that scene.

I wanted to ask her again now.

“Mr. Autumn.”

From noble mtl dot com

“… Yes, Team Leader Sun.”

“You like singing, right?”

In the end, I didn’t get a definitive answer from the soup restaurant.

Ga Eul looked at me with her eyes wide open, as if she had heard an unexpected question.

And as if those words were a catalyst, the emotions that Ga Eul had been suppressing burst out like a water balloon bursting.

“… It’s not something I like. i love you.”

Autumn was shedding tears.

“Really, really. “More than anyone else in this world!”

That was Autumn’s pure sincerity.

The main purpose of doing this was to raise those emotions.

Of course, I was not satisfied with having achieved one goal.

“Then why don’t you become an idol together? “I will make it possible for you to sing on a more enchanting stage than this.”

“I want to do it too! … “But I can’t.”

“why?”

“If I chase my dream like that, Gahyeon’s dream will be destroyed!”

I said with a bitter smile.

“In the end, it’s about money, right?”

“yes. that’s right. It’s because of money. “It’s because I don’t have money.”

“Then, if the money is resolved, we can do it together?”

Ga Eul raised her head and saw my face and spoke helplessly.

“If only I could do that, I wouldn’t have a wish.”

Permission was granted.

“Then, please hang out a little more.”

“yes?”

“Let’s make some money.”

I shouted so loudly that everyone in the distance could hear.

“I think you’ve waited long enough, so please come out soon. president.”

It was time to achieve the second objective.

The crowd split in half as if forming a road.

And she appeared proudly, crossing the path of the crowd.

Next to her was a woman with a bob haircut and a neat suit walking behind her like a secretary.

Perhaps that woman was like the woman named Seo Su-yeon that Cheon A-ram mentioned.

I gave a brief greeting to her, a colleague with whom I would be working in the future, and spoke to Cheon A-ram.

“How was the stage? president.”

“hmm… , In fact, it’s not like I don’t want to belittle you as I have a position. Still, I have to admit what I have to admit.”

Cheon Aram clapped his hands coolly and said.

“It was great PR. Team Leader Seon.”

“So are you accepting it?”

“Well, let’s see how Team Leader Sun finishes it? “Isn’t there a reason why people are gathered together like this?”

“… If we get to that point, President Cheon will also be participating in this show. Is that okay?”

“Yes, even if that’s the case, I should see it, right?”

“Then, I have to do it. what.”

I had high expectations because the stage turned out better than expected, but it seemed difficult to get there easily.

If so, you will have to show it. The essence of aggro from my 10 years of experience.

Ga Eul spoke while holding the standing microphone in front of her.

“The person here is the president of Two Bear Entertainment. And now, the boy who plays vocals, guitar, and MC in the band is a trainee who wants to join Two Bear.”

It provided clear human relationships and a stimulating setting.

“This busking was the final test for us at Two Bear. “It’s about proving your talent in front of everyone.”

And it ended with aggressive storytelling.

As simple busking turned into an audition, people who were about to leave began to attract attention.

In such an atmosphere, Cheon A-ram spoke with disapproval.

“Isn’t this a bit foul? “I’m becoming the villain.”

“This is the only role left. And it is also an invaluable PR opportunity for Two Bear Entertainment. “You know that it’s rare for a new entertainment company to have the opportunity to make their name known in front of a large audience like this, right?”

If you can’t accept this, quit your job as CEO. I have no intention of sharing my fortune with someone like that.

“It’s also a consideration for the owner who feels the bad smell when people gather together. “We need to quickly clean up and go to a place where there are no people.”

“If you had thought about that, you shouldn’t have invited me to this event at all.”

“If you are the head of an entertainment agency, you will have to experience this kind of thing often in the future, so you think you are preparing for it.”

“… “Looking at Team Leader Seon again, he has a really bad personality.”

“Sweat doesn’t smell for nothing.”

We gave each other a small smile. She and I had a common sense of humor.

But the laughter lasted only for a moment. Because this was not the place for that kind of smile.

In the end, I was an employee who ignored the president’s will and tried to enforce his will, and Cheon A-ram was a president who had to stop employees who challenged his authority.

This was a conversation that would establish their future relationship.

“Yes, if you are a new company and have not even tried this opportunity, you should not go out and do business. … Okay, then shall we give it a try?”

She smiled provocatively at me and said:

“I believe you have prepared sufficiently.”

And Cheon Aram separated the microphone from the standing microphone I was holding and held it with her hand. And like the MC of a show program, he explained the situation.

“There is one piece of information you all need to know. “The money that Two Bear needs to spend to recruit the great vocalist here, Ms. Yoo Ga-eul, is 100 million won.”

The look was so skillful that it seemed as if he had already had this experience.

But people’s reaction was cold.

People who were captivated by Ga Eul’s genius vocals couldn’t understand Cheon A-ram saving that amount of money for that genius.

A crude backlash followed.

“Your heart sympathizes. “I am also one of the audience members who saw this performance.”

Cheon A-ram spoke warmly, as if soothing the hearts of the angry audience.

“I can say this as a fan. Yu Ga-eul is worth more than 100 million won. … However, as a businessman and CEO of Two Bear Entertainment, I have a different opinion.”

At the same time, he brought the atmosphere in his direction.

“On average, how much money does it take to run a girl group?”

People started buzzing at the sudden question.

After giving the crowd some time to raise doubts about the question, A-Ram Cheon answered to himself before he felt bored.

“It’s 300 million won for two years.”

The audience began to get excited by the explicit numbers.

“And to pay 100 million to Miss Autumn, you have to take a third of it out of it. 100 million won is that kind of money.”

That was a violent metaphor.

300 million won was close to the amount considering only activity expenses such as lodging, meals, coordination, and music videos.

The amount invested in the office building by Cheon Ah-ram right now would far exceed that amount.

But I couldn’t point it out.

Because I didn’t come here to talk about the truth and hate speech with Cheon Ah-ram.

can’t even do that.

It was an outcall.

“Do you, as businessmen, think it right to pay that amount to Miss Autumn here?”

People were buzzing.

When I heard the actual investment cost, I felt the weight of the 100 million won cost more directly.

Of course, even so, there are of course people who think that money should be paid, but no one could bring that out in the atmosphere that Cheon A-ram drew.

“Speaking as a businessman, I think that is excessive spending. It’s not that I don’t think the Autumn sheep here aren’t worth it.”

Cheon A-ram’s appealing voice swept the hall.

“When you think about the complete appearance of a girl group with up to 12 members, you can’t spend that much on just one trainee. Especially now that we haven’t decided how many people will be allowed or what the concept will be.”

It seems that just gathering the audience, forming public opinion, and showing off her talent wasn’t enough.

The other person is a businessman. In the end, I had to overcome the logic of money.

I didn’t know this. So I prepared it. A card to persuade Cheon A-ram.

So, from here on, it was meant as a slander.

“Suyeon.”

I spoke to Seo Su-yeon, who was guarding Cheon A-ram.

“Please pull the aggro for a moment.”

“… “Aggro?”

“It’s a bit of a personal story to share with the audience. Just pick up the microphone and say anything without being heard.”

“No, how could I… .”

Instead of listening to her answer, I threw away the microphone Cheon A-ram was holding.

Seo Soo-yeon suddenly took the microphone, closed her eyes tightly, and began to introduce her history of studying accounting.

Although he boasted a great career, such as graduating from one of the world’s most prestigious schools and being scouted by a top investment company, people were indifferent and jeered him to even talk about auditions.

Then, in a panic and breaking out in a cold sweat, she shouted as if telling everyone to listen carefully.

“I have this kind of experience! “I will tell you some great tips for using interludes to evade taxes without getting caught by the law!”

The people who were booing became quiet.

“If you don’t get caught, you save money! If you get caught, tax evasion! Let me give you this simple truth for free!”

… It was great aggro.
