Possessed 10 Million Actors

Chapter 82

"I can't believe everything's going to be okay…".’

As a fan of Jinseok, Yoo Yeon was usually interested in many issues related to him.

From the incident in which KL Entertainment interfered with the production of "Spring Without Flowers" to this "Park Hayeon's abusive recording incident."

None of these events could easily be overlooked.

However, all such cases were solved like water. Scaryly and naturally.

Considering that Jinseok's agency will never be an easy place.

‘Well, that doesn't mean I haven't warned him.'

He wasn't even a person to listen to advice anyway. In the first place, I didn't intend to help Park Kyunghoon, who was unfavorable.

I just wanted to go to the meeting with my manager alone. Because he didn't want to be involved in this for no reason.

Contrary to what Park Kyunghoon thought, something big was going to happen.

***

OS Entertainment's "Kang Jinseok Team".

Jang Sunho was the only team, but he had a considerable amount of work to digest. Jang Sunho mumbled while putting down the documents he had been looking at for a long time.

"There are not many new proposals that came into Jinseok.

From advertising, volunteering, and invitations to events, to suggestions on "selecting representative students from Seoguk University." they wanted Jinseok in various places.

Among them, I was selecting things that would benefit Jinseok, but I didn't really like most of the proposals.

[It's 2 o'clock]

Jang Sunho's cell phone announced the time.

"Is it already 2 o'clock?" We should get going now.’

Today is Jinseok's first advertisement, a meeting with "INSEA," an advertising agency for "Maserati."

It was also an important day for Jang Sunho, so I came with more mental armament than usual today.

"So I heard that the soon-to-be-changing branch manager of Maserati is very close to Mr. Oh…. I'll ask Kang Kyungsik later.'

Jang Sunho put on his overcoat thinking about this and that.

"It could be his first commercial. Should I tell the actor first?"

Jang Sunho fiddled with his cell phone and agonized. Then he shook his head.

Advertisement does not necessarily take place just because an offer is received. There are many cases where there is a breakdown in the middle because they do not agree with each other.

So, it would be better to say it after it's confirmed, even if it's a little late, rather than saying it first and disappointing Jinseok.

Jang Sunho put his cell phone in his pocket.

Then, the moment I was about to leave the office, I got a call from Jinseok at a subtle time.

"Hello?"

[Oh, manager!]! Can you talk on the phone now?]

"Yes. How can I help you?"

[That's…]… I got a call from Yeonsoo. their filming a department promotion video for freshmen next year. Can I participate?]

"If you want to promote your department….”

Jang Sunho recalled the "proposal to appear in a promotional video for Seoguk University" that he saw a while ago.

"Are you talking about the school representative video?"

[No, it's not that great]. I guess it's just at the level of our department's student council. I'm not good enough to take a video as a representative of the school…. [Laughing]

Jang Sunho smiled bitterly at the words of Jinseok, who did not know his value at all.

"I think you can do it if you want to. There's a lot of time left until the audition for the next film."

[Yes, if you have any other questions, I'll call you!]

"Please feel free to contact me."

After the call, Jang Sunho headed to the headquarters of INSEA. Looking at the navigation system, there is no traffic today.

There is no traffic, so I should feel good, but Jang Sunho was frustrated by the call with Jinseok a while ago.

"Whoa….”

Jang Sunho sighed deeply when he was caught in the red light.

"Are you evaluating yourself as not enough for a university representative?"

Jinseok is the main character of the work, which has received a whopping 5 million views just for the trailer. If such an actor can't represent a university, who would do it?

At this point, it can be said that it is not humbling, but ‘ignorance' and, in a bad way, ‘foolish'.

If it were OS Entertainment or a manager other than himself, Jinseok might have been rolled like a slave.

You may live like your brother and end up with it.

‘…Let's stop having bad thoughts.'

Perhaps the launch of "The Way They Chose" got closer and became sensitive, Jang Sunho was standing differently than usual.

Jang Sunho, who arrived at "INSEA" headquarters a little later, called the person in charge.

[Hello?]

"Hello, I'm Jang Sunho from OS Entertainment who decided to have a meeting today. I arrived in front of the company."

[Oh, you came early]. [If you're in the lobby on the 1st floor, I'll go down]

About a minute after waiting in the lobby.

"Are you manager Jang Sunho?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Yes, this way….”

The person in charge took Jang Sunho to the meeting room.

"Mr. Park Kyunghoon and Yoo Yeon will be here soon for today's meeting. Please wait a moment."

"Yes."

Jang Sunho waited for them while drinking bottled water on the table. Before long, someone came in knocking on the door.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

It was two men who came in. Jang Sunho stood up and greeted the two.

"Hello. It's a great pleasure to meet you. It's Jang Sunho."

‘I thought they were at least the deputy director level because they were having an in-person meeting, but they're quite young. "let's see?"

The TV commercial fee is not a transaction of money or two. However, Jang Sunho thought it strange because the two who just came in were not the "deputy-level" who was in charge at first glance.

"It's Park Kyunghoon."

"I'm Yoo Yeon!"

While Jang Sunho was thinking about that, Park Kyunghoon and Yoo Yeon handed over their business cards to Jang Sunho. Jang Sunho sat down and said after politely receiving the business cards handed over by the two.

"First of all, thank you so much for liking my actor. "INSEA is a specialist in car advertising, and my actor is really looking forward to working with those people."

Of course, it's a lie. Jinseok doesn't even know that he has an advertisement.

However, this much lip service was the basis of the meeting, so Jang Sunho was able to lie without putting saliva on his lips.

"Thank you for watching us like that. We are also looking forward to seeing actor Kang Jinseok, who has recently been raising stock prices. Then let me first explain the whole project."

"Yes, please."

Park Kyunghoon began explaining by handing over thick PPT materials to Jang Sunho.

After a long perfunctory explanation, he finally brought up an important matter.

"Now let's talk about Kang Jinseok's guarantee."

"Yes."

"I don't know if you know, but a new Korean branch manager is coming to ‘Maserati' soon. But maybe because he was an engineer, he's quite stingy about spending on advertising."

“….”

"To the extent that it doesn't suit the reputation of ‘Maserati'. I think you might find it a little upsetting. I'd appreciate it if you could understand this."

Park Kyunghoon seemed embarrassed and said kindly.

However, Jang Sunho felt a sense of alienation in Park Kyunghoon's words.

"Your tongue is too long."

That sense of alienation was just too much talk.

The basis of negotiation is to go short and thick. speak at length for nothing This is because it is easy to catch weaknesses.

The fact that there is a lot of talk in negotiations is that there is something about it. Jang Sunho noticed it earlier, but first of all, he answered plainly.

"I see. I'll try to understand as much as I can."

"Thank you. First of all, the guarantee we're proposing is… Give me the contract, Mr. Yoo Yeon."

"Yes, deputy."

Yoo Yeon gave the contract to Jang Sunho. There was something awkward about the movement.

Park Kyunghoon said with a smile.

"Please check the draft contract. Please take a look and tell me."

"Yes, let me check."

Jang Sunho read the contract one by one.

These contracts were also masterful at the level of a lawyer, so if you were playing with the contents of the contract, he would quickly notice it.

‘But maybe because it's a big company, the contract is clean. Let's look at the amount now.'

Jang Sunho saw an item called "Advertising Model Fee" in the middle of the contract.

——

-Sunday: KRW 150,000,000 (VAT not included)

——

“…?”

As soon as he saw the amount, Jang Sunho was frankly embarrassed. Looking at the ridiculous amount of money, Park Kyunghoon said earlier, "The advertiser is stingy in spending advertising." It felt real.

"That can't be true."

However, Jang Sunho quickly regained his coolness.

They want to save the model fee. It's natural for companies. However, companies have a "face." "Our company spends this much money on advertising models."

However, if it is known that a luxury car brand such as ‘Maserati' has spent only 150 million won on modeling, there is no such shame.

Jang Sunho calmly organized his thoughts.

"Because I'm a practitioner, I'm in a hurry to increase my performance."

According to his judgment, Jinseok's model fee was class B, ranging from a minimum of 200 million to a maximum of 500 million.

Jinseok was hot recently, but he made a judgment from an objective perspective that it would be difficult to receive more than that because he was a "newbie."

150 million… It's a bit hard to cross the line.'

This is an amount that sees not only Jinseok but also himself and even the entire OS entertainment as a "ho-gu".

"If possible, I would just laugh and sign a contract, and I was going to give you good news…. I'm afraid I can't.'

Maserati commercial. If we can, of course we'd better. But that doesn't mean we're being treated like a fool like this.

‘Plus, the first CF guarantee is really important. That will be the starting point for negotiations on the numerous advertising fees that we will be doing in the future. Just like the salary negotiations.'

Jang Sunho, who organized his thoughts, breathed a heavy sigh and put the contract forward to Park Kyunghoon.

Park Kyunghoon asked slylyly as if he didn't know why.

"Is there a problem?"

Jang Sunho, who does not like Park Kyunghoon's attitude, stared at Park Kyunghoon.

As soon as both of their eyes met Park Kyunghoon and Jang Sunho's eyes, who were smiling slyly until a while ago, their expressions hardened.

"When I first met Assistant Manager Park Kyunghoon, I said that Kang Jinseok said he was looking forward to this commercial, right? That's actually a lie."

“…" Lies?"

"Yes, I didn't say anything about the advertisement because I was afraid the agency would offer me a ridiculously low amount or offer me ridiculous terms."

Park Kyunghoon said in a bewildered voice because the life felt in Jang Sunho's eyes was unusual.

"Uh, if you tell me which part you didn't like….”

"Tell me what you want me to say?" Is the guarantee you just suggested that we should have a conversation?"

"That, that."

"Well, that's good. Now that you've said that, I'll ask you a question."

Park Kyunghoon nodded cautiously. The expression was full of embarrassment.

"To the extent that you put my actor in front of the camera for only this much money….”

“….”

"Do we look like a pushover?"
