20. Preliminary opening (1)
That’s right.
Anyway, it’s a contract between Sang-hyun and Joo-hyuk, and they have to handle it together.
Is there any room for other people’s evaluations to interfere with the contract?
If only we both knew that we were the best together.
The rest is not something to consider. There is nothing to be afraid of.
That’s it.
That alone makes us the best partners.
Joo Hyuk felt his eyes getting hot.
Nothing in particular happened. It’s just a matter of organizing the thoughts in my head.
I just exchanged a few words with this guy.
I felt much freer than before. I feel like I have thrown away all the frustrating restraints.
Joo-hyuk lowers his head, fearing that his expression will be seen.
Fortunately, Sanghyeon was gulping down his beer and wasn’t looking at me.
Tuk.
He puts down his beer glass and holds out his hand.
“Anyway, please take care of me. “In the future too.”
“okay.”
Joo-hyuk straightens his expression and joins hands.
The two shook hands as if renewing the contract.
While laughing, Joo-hyuk suddenly became curious and asked.
“But what is your rating on dating apps?”
“….” You
say that living a life based on the rating on this bastard’s dating app isn’t that great, but doesn’t he get a perfect score?! Because I had a question…
“Hmm. “I don’t do that.”
I don’t do that.
“You haven’t even tested it?”
“I haven’t tried it. “I just heard about it because of the commercials.”
“…really?”
“Here, give me two more beers!”
* * *
After this day, Almond’s G-Star came to an end.
After signing an exclusive contract with Hitman, Almond no longer had any work related to G-Star.
This is also the end of Joo Hyuk’s G-Star.
Something new was beginning within him.
After the rain, the ground hardened and unknown seeds sprouted within it.
I couldn’t even figure out what this was.
Joo-hyuk thought that if this plant were to fully grow, it would be named Hope.
“uh. I think the video should be uploaded today…”
After this strange thing grew inside. He was able to focus on work much better.
“I’ll meet with the assistant editor and then come. By taking a video. Jia, you are managing your time well. “Because the videos need to come out.”
There were no distracting thoughts.
I didn’t think about my father, my former job, or my colleagues.
I just focused on moving forward.
Toward that light that we can reach someday.
“ah. Manager Jeong. How have you been? We were late in contacting you as we were contemplating it. “I decided to sign the contract today.”
Now he is trying to sign a contract for Hitman’s exclusive model. It was early in the morning, but I couldn’t make it wait any longer.
Before he knew it, Sanghyun was also sitting across from him at the table.
“yes. yes. Let’s proceed right away. Just turn on the app.
Manager Jeong seemed very excited. He seemed like a very excited person, so much so that even Joo Hyuk on the other end of the phone was influenced by his mood.
“ruler. here.”
Joo-hyuk tosses the app function to Sang-hyeon.
“okay.”
Sanghyeon also nods and checks the contents of the contract again.
Of course, I’m just rolling my eyes.
He had no talent for reading anything intently.
I just knew that if I stayed like this, Joo Hyuk would inspect me.
“yes. Please review and sign now.”
Joo Hyuk nodded and spoke through the receiver. Sang-hyun signs and Joo-hyuk also signs.
Manager Jeong’s seal is stamped on it.
Although remote, it was captured on everyone’s screens at the same time.
“Yes, it’s the same as the account number. What are you doing kid? We are grateful.”
Tiring.
The down payment was deposited into my bank account at an incredible speed. The two leaked the amount with their fingers and nodded.
“That’s right.”
Sigh.
It was an amount that made me smile.
“Good news. Thank you… Yes?”
Joo Hyuk was about to hang up the call. Manager Jeong hurriedly said something.
“ah. “Are you filming a commercial?”
Joo Hyuk picked up the pen again.
“You can send me a draft… but wouldn’t this be a bit big in scale?”
Other than the scale being large, it actually had nothing to do with Sanghyeon, the advertising model.
Now, hitmen are also people who are in the same boat as anyone else can see.
Joo Hyuk was also worried.
“ah. Has the investment come in? President, you are a talented person. All right. But when it comes to advertising like this, the agency…”
It seems like a big investment has come from somewhere. Perhaps he saw the potential of a Hitman game?
“No, from next month you will be Deputy Director Jeong? Hahaha. Congratulations.”
Even Manager Jeong, who carried out the contract, was promoted quickly.
“Well… if it’s such a big advertisement, where did you get the advertising agency from? It won’t be easy to make… Ah. The best planning. The best plan is good. You’re working in a big place. “I really congratulate you.”
After that, Joo-hyuk hung up the phone after talking about trivial things for a while.
Tuk.
“what? Has the ad changed? “I was just filming the game.”
“uh. changed. “We’ll even prepare a set and film it.”
“Oh….”
“Because we also have an hourly rate. It doesn’t really matter. “In fact, I ended up getting more money.”
“right.”
When we say that something is going smoothly, we are talking about something like this.
‘If there’s anything to be caught, this is it.’
Despite this, not everything went smoothly.
Talk. Talk.
Joo-hyuk’s pen, which was taking notes, types a single letter.
‘The best planning….’
This is a company that is planning an advertisement together.
It is also an affiliate of Asung, so Joo-hyuk and Sang-hyeon also have a connection.
‘That’s where that bastard is.’
I heard it from Jia. Jia’s ex-lover works here.
Well, this is also the highest tier advertising agency in the country. There was no need to feel bad about something personal like this.
‘I’m comfortable.’
Joo-hyuk once again remembers his ex-lover.
She is in America now. When we moved to the United States, our relationship became estranged.
Before that, we even talked about marriage.
Before I knew it, I was a complete man.
I found human relationships fascinating.
Sometimes it seems like things are going to be good, but then it falls apart.
There are things that continue even if they seem precarious.
I ended up having this kind of relationship with Yoo Sang-hyeon, who at first I thought there was a guy like that.
Looking back, it is a strange and bitter phenomenon.
“me. “Turn on the broadcast.”
Sang-hyeon passes behind and says.
“ah. huh. “Sure.”
Joo Hyuk also naturally left his laptop on to manage chats.
Sanghyun sat in front of the desk, not in the capsule.
Crash.
Deep winter sunlight beat down on the sound of two people typing on the keyboard.
Even if everything changes later, the memory of this moment will last forever.
That alone will be enough to keep you warm for the coming winter.
Joo Hyuk thought so.
* * *
“done! it’s okay! Walk right away! “Launch it right away!”
Manager Jeong shouted loudly as he ran through the booth.
“yep!”
Employees unrolled posters, put them up outside, and began changing all the advertising screens.
It was an advertisement with Almond’s face and huge letters saying ‘Almond Challenge’ floating everywhere.
Additionally, the flag placed near the booth reads, “Extreme Spicy!” It also said, ‘Almond challenge!’
All the marketing points that the manager had envisioned were included.
“ha. “It’s just the right time.”
“Iknow, right.”
“It’s opening soon, right?”
“yes. “They will come in droves.”
“it was good. “I rowed properly.”
It was just as the manager said. Next, today’s G-STAR opening begins and people flock in.
It is often said that it comes like a wave, but it really was like that.
The employees go out and start rowing on the waves.
“ah! iced coffee! Ah~ Almond Challenge~!”
“It’s spicy. It’s really spicy~ but it’s deliciously spicy. “I’m pulling out all the tears, snot, and mucus.”
These days, popularity and interest tend to come in very short and bold terms. I thought there wouldn’t be as many people as yesterday.
“oh. “Is that that?”
“Almond challenge?”
“Hey. “You row properly.”
The word “Almond Challenge” once again ignited gamers’ desire for a challenge.
There were still no challenge points to be gained, but it simply aroused the desire to challenge one’s skills.
Of course, there were people who came and asked this without really knowing anything.
“No points? Then what do you get!?”
Although it is actively promoted like this, there are no challenge points.
“Ah, sir, it’s written down here~”
The employee is pointing to the bottom corner of the poster. In very small letters it was written, ‘*Cannot be obtained due to exhaustion of challenge points.’
“You didn’t get any challenge points, but you’re definitely in our hearts! In your heart! We are confident that something more precious will remain!”
An employee waving his hands brightly.
“…Oh yeah.”
In this way, they continued their business successfully without giving up a single challenge point.
* * *
At this point, Hitman’s booth was hot.
Tiring.
[Almond has started streaming!]
[G-Star story and important announcement]
Almond’s broadcast suddenly turned on without much warning.
[Current viewers: 18,000]
As soon as the broadcast was turned on, close to 20,000 people flocked to the show.
“Tha~”
The place where he greeted me was not inside the capsule, but in his room as the background.
This is a communication broadcast for the first time in a while.
-Aha -Wow
, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a communication broadcast
-It’s been a while since I’ve been in this situation lol
-Important announcement ㄷㄷ
-Important announcement? Are you re-enlisting?
Viewers greet him warmly. Of course, sponsorship was not left out.
[Ruby Sword donated 10,000 won.]
[Almond! G-Star is over?]
“Ah. Ruby Sword. Thank you for donating 10,000 won. Yes, the G-Star schedule is over. Now it’s home again.”
Tiring.
It’s been a while since there was a communication broadcast, so Ruby Sword seems excited.
[Ruby Sword donated 20,000 won.]
[There are a lot of Almond’s faces in G-Star!]
Another donation.
“My face?”
[Ruby Sword donated 30,000 won.]
[Confirmation!]
“Confirmation? sorry. “I’ll see.”
-ㅁㅊㅋㅋㅋ
-Is 40,000 won next? Haha
– As expected, the kill angle is crazy haha
– Inducing sponsorship hahaha
Trivi streamer bulletin board.
In short, it’s tsugeda.
It is a space that each streamer can use as a bulletin board for themselves and their fans.
“Tsuge. Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I’ve seen it. “It looks like this…”
When I went in, I was able to quickly find an article that was believed to have been posted by Ruby Sword.
It was at the G-Star site, and there were a lot of almonds floating around.
-Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
for for for
for
for for for for sure
-The end of the human era has arrived. Now is the age of nuts
– in the end, it is a world where nuts have won.
The exclusive contract was signed just a few hours ago.
It was incredible speed.
[Boiled Eggplant donated 5,000 won.]
[It’s a law that I can’t even use my younger brother’s face. Is this okay?]
– You can’t use your brother’s face, but you spend money…
– Hey, you know the law well
– I don’t like it because it’s not a bundle of eggplants~
– So, isn’t that too much??
“Oh, I’m the exclusive model for Hitman, so portrait rights don’t matter.”
-Third dragon!?
-Really??
-Wow, that’s awesome
-Kya
-Wow ㅊㅊㅊ
[Ruby Sword donated 100,000 won.]
[Wow, congratulations on the model! But what about the important announcement?]
“Ah. thank you Ruby. “Important Announcement…”
It was written as “Important Announcement” in the title, but no mention was made at all.
-I forgot, haha.
-Walnuts are used instead of the title?
-Nut Shack ㅋㅋㅋ How are they broadcasting without Ruby ㅋㅋㅋ
[Currently 47,000 viewers]
Almost 50,000 people are watching the chattering broadcast.
Has the weight class increased since G-Star? Or is it just an important announcement?
I couldn’t tell.
In any case, an important announcement must be made.
“It’s not that I forgot, I was timing it.”
Huh.
He cleared his throat a few times and took something out from under his desk.
-??
-What is it?
-?
The object that appeared at the end of the feast of question marks was Rayna’s bow, Damian.
“My Damien is so brilliant that I wanted to urgently introduce him to him as an important announcement.”
A bow with a soft blue glow. It was definitely a brilliant appearance.
-Aye hahahaha
-The gangsters are dying oooot
-The gangsters… Kkak!
-I got “knocked down”
-Is this a true story? LOL
-From next time, please call it a ‘platoon presentation’…
It seemed like the number of viewers disappeared for a moment.
“…It’s a joke.”
Almond grinned and put down his bow again.
“Actually, this is not a major announcement.”
-Are you re-enlisting?
-Did you get to play for the national team in the World Cup because of your ball possession remarks?!
-Oh, please don’t say you’re dating Miho. I really can’t stand it!
Amidst all sorts of speculations.
The almond stopped steaming and something appeared on the screen.
[Civil M National Competition Broadcast Plan]
“Boo.” “Important announcement~”
– Doo-dong ㅇㅈㄹㅋㅋ
– It’s big lol
– You’re so cute, Lee Ja-shik
– Ah, it’s a national war!
-Will the broadcast be a little different?
“The preliminaries for the Civil Empire National Competition will begin soon. From this point on, the broadcast structure is bound to change a bit.”
