A Genius Writer Loved by an Actress 31
CEO Lee Kun-heung began to attack with an active attitude.
“Ever since Forrest turned his attention to drama production, he was looking for someone like Yoon Jae-ho. There were a lot of candidates, and I tried to find out about it, but there was still no one I wanted to be just this person. But when I read the script for Barcomo, I saw the potential, and to be honest, even Opal.”
“Oh, what a compliment.”
I bowed my head and bowed.
“no. no. Bacomo and opal wine were really amazing. A script that perfectly captures the box office and fun beyond novelty.”
“Oh, no.”
I was thinking of refusal inside, so I bowed my head even more and declined.
I have endless potential for growth.
I didn’t want to be arrested any longer.
“hahaha. Our writer is also humble. is not it? Chief Jang.”
“you’re right. It’s not easy for someone with such skill to be so humble. CEO.”
The CEO and the head of the department sat in front of me, giving and receiving, and floating me up. Then, CEO Lee Kun-heung came to a clear conclusion.
“We, Forest, want to invest in the endless ideas and stories of the author.”
He smiled, but couldn’t hide the slight trembling of the corners of his mouth. He was very anxious that he might be rejected.
But what about this I have to refuse
“Thank you so much for being Forest exclusive. By the way.”
“Wait a minute, writer.”
The representative interrupted me.
I just got a feeling
For now, I took my time and made concessions so that CEO Lee could speak first.
“You don’t have to give me a definite answer right here and now. A sudden offer will require time to think. Still, I will tell you the terms of our contract to help you decide.”
“Ah yes. contract conditions.”
I didn’t even listen to the terms and almost refused.
That’s not it.
I listened and prepared to listen.
“Forrest’s conditions are as follows. um, um 50 million won per year as a writing incentive separate from the manuscript fee.”
“ah.”
“In addition, we will provide a well-organized and spacious writing space in this building.”
“Five.”
“I will also add three assistant writers. Of course, we pay the entire fee.”
“Yeah.”
Aside from the desire to refuse, admiration flowed out of his mouth.
Because it was an unconventional condition that any drama writer would dream of. Right now, I want to ask, ‘Are you exclusive from today?’
However,
What I need right now
It was freedom rather than stability.
It will grow much more. enough to fly in the sky.
“thank you. Thanks for offering me an exclusive contract on such a great condition, who is still nothing… But it seems like my personality is tied to something… It seems cramped. I am really grateful…”
When Jang Hyuk-soo quickly noticed Lee Kun-heung, his mouth automatically reflexively opened.
“Aha… I made a mistake… that… not 5,000 a year, but 7,000. As much as I want to write as an assistant writer.”
“No, no. It’s not really about money. The money is enough for a baccomo manuscript fee.”
You will receive up to 3000 incentives.
When he firmly refused, even waving his hand, the CEO’s expression turned pale.
“Hmm. Is that so? Well, first of all, you know. However, this offer is still valid, so please reconsider.”
“Yes, I do.”
Lee Kun-heung knew how to push, but he also knew how to back off.
It would have been embarrassing to recommend more, but thank you for clearing it up.
“Then, may I be aware that ＜Right Arm Co., Ltd.＞ is with us regardless of the exclusive contract?”
“Ah yes. Naturally. Both the male and female leads belong to Forest.”
“Director Oh Sang-sik read the script and was greedy, so can Opal-ju go with director Oh?”
“Ah, it’s an honor. I already know all of Director Oh’s skills.”
“Then we will focus on making the bacomo and slowly prepare the opal wine.”
“Yes, I do.”
The contract for ＜Baristas Don’t Know Coffee＞ went well, and the story for ＜Right Arm Co., Ltd.＞ ended well.
Now I had to go to comfort her.

My steps out of the representative room accelerated. I ran into the elevator thinking about what to buy for a friend who lost weight because he was assigned to Ping Pong Plus.
“Wait a minute.”
I mean, it’s always like this.
The elevator was going down in an instant.
I can’t help it. No choice but to wait for the next elevator.
I try to press the button that goes down slowly,
whiz-
The cell phone vibrated.
Looking at the brief, it seemed that it was a text message, not a phone call.
Waiting for the elevator was boring, but I quickly checked it because I thought it was okay.
[SS All One Bank]
Forest Entertainment sent money to Jaeho Yoon’s KKS account.
Sent Amount: KRW 6,000,000
Recipient: Yoon Jae-ho
Deposit Bank: SS Bank
762****7114611
It was Barcomo’s first manuscript fee.
The money came in 30 seconds after leaving the representative room.
I even heard a reasonable suspicion that he was waiting to put money in, but money pleases people anyway.
My mouth became a hammock.
‘First of all, I’ll give my father and mother some pocket money.’
In the meantime, I’ve been able to take care of filial piety with my body, but now I think about hitting it with cash.
‘During Chuseok, Han Kyul bought a set of Korean beef for his house.’
Han-gyeol, who became salt in his lonely life in Seoul, is a natural dori when he thinks of his family.
‘Shall I buy some clothes? Shoes?’
In that way, I was immersed in the sweet worry of ‘how to spend 6 million won wisely’.
You don’t even know that someone is coming.
“Wow!”
“Oh, that’s a surprise.”
Someone’s hand on your back.
I thought it was going to be so startling, but it wasn’t a bad feeling because it was so small and pretty.
I looked back quickly,
“Are you surprised by the author?”
Min Yuri was smiling brightly.
Were we close enough to play pranks like this?
While hesitating not knowing how to react,
“I’m sorry. It’s nice to see the writer’s back.”
Min Yu-ri frowned and apologized.
no. no. I don’t want this kind of development.
“no. no. I was just at a loss for words because I was so happy.”
“really? Oh, I’m glad. The author’s back is cute, so I should be able to get past it.”
“Hey, was my back that cute?”
“yes. Many many.”
“But I’m telling you that Yuri doesn’t seem to know, but I’ve already graduated at that cute age.”
“yes? Is there an age limit for that?”
“I am 31 years old. When you turn 30, it’s time to let go of cuteness in all fields.”
“Aha. Our writer is thirty-one years old. Our age difference is no more than ten years.”
Min Yuri smiled softly as she calculated her age.
‘Let’s see. Five years ago, when we first met, Min Yu-ri was 17 years old. Then, 5 years later, I am now 22 years old. The age difference between me and me is 9 years. That’s right. He’s not over ten years old.’
oh, what are you thinking Jaeho Yoon, wake up!
As if possessed by something, I calmed down and asked Min Yuri.
“…By the way, how about here on the ninth floor?”
The 9th floor was the top floor of the forest office building, and had a representative office, a large conference room, and a VIP-only lounge.
Forest ace Min Yuri didn’t have to come to the ninth floor, but she asked to change the subject. Or maybe I just keep saying cute things.
“Ah, it’s a VIP lounge. I got some acting advice from a famous person. I can’t sit still while the writer is writing the opal script. You have to prepare thoroughly for acting.”
Min Yu-ri was offered the role of ‘Han Ji-hyun’ yesterday, and she hasn’t read the synopsis, let alone the script for Opal. But are you preparing for acting?
Great Actor Award!
“Hey, I was going to write a little bit more about ‘Han Ji-hyun’, but I can’t. Wait.”
I pulled out the script for ＜Right Arm Co., Ltd.＞, which I finished up to episode 4 yesterday.
I printed it out just in case you might need it, but it worked.
“Until the 4th. Take a look. It will help you get a character.”
“Wow. I was on the verge of going crazy because I was curious about the drama, but… Thank you. Writer.”
Min Yuri hugged the script and nodded.
Is the fact that the writer gave the script to the actor to be greeted?
I was confused for a while, but it seems to fit in the flow…
At that point, the elevator came up.
ding-
A golden door that opens softly.
Min Yu-ri got on first and followed. And I pressed the first floor.
“Oh, I just met the CEO.”
“Ah, that’s why the writer was also on the 9th floor.”
“yes. I said I signed an official contract with Barcamo… But somehow the CEO saw the script for ＜Right Arm Co., Ltd.＞.”
“how?”
Min Yuri asked in surprise. Because I had no idea that Gam Woo-hyuk had a script.
“Ah, that’s… The male lead ‘Byung-su’ is Gam Woo-hyuk.”
“yes?! Our company, Gam Woo-hyuk?”
“yes. Actually, I was cast before Min Yuri. Yuri is second.”
“Ah yes yes.”
A slight disappointment crossed Min Yu-ri’s face.
Bacomo was also defeated by Ji So-young, but the fact that Opal wasn’t the first to appear didn’t seem very pleasant.
But soon the feeling went away. Because it wasn’t Min Yuri who would hang around with those feelings for a long time.
“Anyway, I told the CEO and Director Jang that Min Yu-ri would play the female lead of Opalju. Are you okay?”
“yes. Sure. You’ll find out anyway. What. What did the representative say?”
“Of course you say it’s good. They say that the ratings are guaranteed because Min Yu-ri, who is good at acting, is included.”
“a. lie.”
You’re quick-witted
Min Yuri smiled brightly. My eyes drooped a little more, but they looked like a picture drawn on a postcard.
“But you can’t see the manager today?”
“I went to return the sponsored clothes.”
“Aha.”
nodded.
So now I am alone with Min Yuri.
Thank you.
“Anything Yuri wears is like a sponsorship. The clothes I wore to the audition yesterday looked like that. Is it luxurious and special?”
“Hey, the writer. I found it through my closet to wear it modestly. It is neither luxury nor expensive. They are probably internet-bonded clothes.”
“Clothes are not wings, people are wings.”
“Ho-ho… you haven’t had lunch yet, have you?”
Min Yuri asked while checking the time.
“yes. It’s only past 11 o’clock now.”
“Yes. Then it went well. Would you like to have dinner with me?”
“Uh, that’s it.”
I’m trying to say that there’s a promise,
Thing-
The elevator door opened on the 5th floor.
Two familiar people were standing outside the door.
“uh? Soyoung and Seonah.”
I was happy to call them by their names once in a while.
***
Ji So-young and Song Seon-ah met Ahn Myung-won, team leader, and signed an exclusive contract on good terms.
“Thank you for coming with me today. I don’t think I would have done anything without my sister.”
“What have I done? I just sat there and asked a few questions.”
“How reassuring it was.”
“Ah, by the way, this is Forest Entertainment’s headquarters. How much I longed for it in the past… I’ll go ahead and smell it.”
Song Seon-ah took a deep breath as if taking a forest bath and felt the forest.
Thanks to a great part-timer, I tried to step on the threshold before I died, but I thought it would be over.
“Soyoung-ah, even if you are busy, come to Blancnois once. I signed the contract earlier, and now I really want to say goodbye to you.”
“Absolutely. Like black and white for Chaerin, Blancnois is such a place for me. There, I met my sister… and… I also met the writer.”
“Seeing that, I see. It was the first time I met the author at Blancnois. How much the writer looks at you that day. Because I really thought it was a stocon.”
Even less than a month ago, it felt like an old memory.
“You really have to give the writer a shot. He is a benefactor to you.”
“sure. I will never forget the favor of the writer.”
The two stood in front of the elevator and pressed the button.
The elevator was coming down from the ninth floor.
“Tell me to have a meal. Buy something delicious and say thank you. before it gets any busier.”
“may I?”
It was a thought that had been heard in Ji So-young’s mind over a million times. When Song Seon-ah told me that, I felt relieved.
“Of course not. It should be.”
“No… I’m afraid it will interfere with the writer’s writing.”
“So you should ask and make an appointment in advance.”
ding-
Just then, the elevator came down and the door opened.
There was someone I knew inside.
“uh? Mr. So-young and Mr. Sun-ah.”
“Writer.”
Ji So-young’s face was happy as she looked at Yoon Jae-ho.
