Possessed 10 Million Actors

Chapter 84



Chapter 84

"Park Jinsoo became the manager of the Maserti branch…"?’

He was no longer a thin, haggard, bearded man in my memory.

Instead, there was a very nice middle-aged man standing. Middle-aged people who think black cat and orange brandy will go well together.

It was literally a ‘transformation' appearance.

"How have you been?"

Park Jinsoo asked me.

"Oh, yes. I've been well. But you became a branch manager…?”

"Haha. A lot of things happened after I got help from the actor and came to my senses. He gave me luck, too. Let's eat first and talk."

Park Jinsoo led me to the table. I sat down at the table still in a dazed mood.

Employees appeared somewhere and started serving dishes.

"Then talk to me and call me when you need me."

Jang Sunho said politely and turned around. Oh Haneul called such Jang Sunho.

"Manager, let's eat together. I think it would be better for a working-level person to talk with you."

Jang Sunho took a look at the atmosphere slightly at Oh Haneul's words. Soon he lowered his head as if he knew it, and sat down with the words, "Excuse me then."

a meal that began shortly afterward.

From salads-only forks to dishes with names that are difficult to pronounce, I was not familiar with anything, but I managed and eat well.

I was nervous and didn't know if the dish went into my mouth or nose.

"Now, then."

Park Jinsoo, who had finished eating to some extent, said while clasping his fingers.

"First of all, I would like to apologize. I heard that the advertising agency we decided on made an ‘outrageous' offer to actor Kang Jinseok. He's not my employee, but that doesn't mean we're not responsible."

"What? A ridiculous offer?"

It was the first time I had heard of it. Jang Sunho said carefully when asked back because he didn't know why.

"Mr. Governor. Actually, I didn't tell the actor anything about the advertisement. I think it would be better to hear from the branch manager than I tell him."

"Oh, I see. So where do I start talking about this….”

Park Jinsoo thought about it for a while and looked directly at me.

"There was an advertising agency that said it would be best to use actor Kang Jinseok as a model for the Maserati commercial. The company offered to spend 500 million won on Kang Jinseok's guarantee."

"500 million won?" You're going to give me 500 million won to model?"

Of course, not only part-time jobs but also all the appearance fees that I received so far combined, are just too much.

I took a sneak peek around.

"I thought it would have to be that much to repay the grace I received from the actor."

I think I was the only one who was surprised by the large amount of money called ‘500 million'.

Oh Haneul was satisfied with eating chocolate pudding, and Jang Sunho had a unique expressionless face.

"Well, not only that, but considering your image and future growth potential, I thought it was worth it."

"Well, I see."

However, an advertising agency called "INSEA" proposed 150 million won to Jang Sunho, and Jang Sunho rejected it.

In response, he added that he will officially protest at the Korean branch of Maserati, and apart from that, the advertising contract will continue as it is.

"Anyway, let's stop talking about such boring things. Kang Jinseok, if you don't want that pudding, can you give it to me? It's sweet and delicious

"What? Oh, yes."

Pudding that I forgot was there because I was concentrating on Park Jinsoo. When I handed over the pudding, Oh Haneul continued.

"In the end, what he wants to say is that he wants Kang Jinseok to film a commercial for ‘Maserati'. Even now, competitors are lining up because they want to use actor Kang Jinseok as a model."

This was also the first time I had heard of it. I saw Jang Sunho with a surprised eye, meaning, "Is it real?"

Jang Sunho nodded with a light smile.

"It's true. Many companies want to model-actor Jinseok. Not just in cars, but in other industries."

"Well, I see."

He nodded his head grimly. Park Jinsoo said in a serious voice again.

"The model I'm going to ask Kang Jinseok to do this time is called the best masterpiece in ‘Maserati'. It's also the first car we made using the technology I developed."

"Haha….”

"So I hope you can model for me."

He smiled awkwardly, scratching the back of his head. I don't know how to react because I'm suddenly being supported like this.

"What's going on?"

When Park Jinsoo saw me like that, he murmured in a somber voice.

“…As expected, you must be angry. I understand that feeling a hundred times."

"No, it's not. For me, 100 million-."

I think my expression of contemplation seemed quite serious. The moment I'm trying to make an excuse.

"I'll pay 500 million won for the guarantee and give you a car as a gift. What do you think?"

“….”

"Of course, we will pay for the full option and the tax and utility bill. If you need anything else, I'll match you as much as I can."

I was going to say that 150 million is enough to take it. No, rather, I tried to say thank you.

However, looking at Park Jinsoo's voice and eyes, I felt that even if I wanted to shoot an advertisement for that money, I would force him to give me more money.

"I see."

I finally nodded because I didn't think I could continue to reject his favor.

"Thank you for choosing me."

Park Jinsoo's expression brightened up to my answer.

Oh Haneul, who even finished my share of pudding, asked as the atmosphere at the table improved again.

"By the way, actor. When is the launch date for the first episode of "The Way They Chose?"

"It's next week. December 24th."

***

A few days later, on Saturday, December 24, Christmas Eve, Park Chunsam's house.

"Daddy's here! I bought chicken and pizza….”

Park Chunsam, who bought food full of both hands like Santa, smiled brightly and shouted from the front door. Perhaps after a snowstorm, his whole body was covered in snow.

“….”

But the house was too quiet.

Park Chunsam was a beloved husband and father, so his wife and daughters always rushed out and welcomed him when he returned home.

Recently, as my eldest daughter became 20 years old and my younger daughter became a senior in high school, she seemed to distance herself from me more than before, but he still thought she was okay.

"But this kind of reaction… ‘Seo, don't tell me.'

A few days ago, I remembered that Kim complained, "My daughter doesn't even want to eat with me these days."

Park Chunsam became nervous about the anxiety that such a thing might happen to her in the present progressive manner.

Park Chunsam went to the living room in a hurry.

In the living room, there were three mothers and daughters covering their mouths in front of the TV in the same pose and holding back tears.

"What are you looking at? Dad is here, and everyone is like that…".”

Park Chunsam grumbled when he saw it.

"You be quiet!"

"Daddy, come on!"

"Oh, really!"

The three mothers and daughters shouted as soon as Park Chunsam spoke.

The first daughter who screamed rewound the drama with a remote control.

"That was a very important line! You're out of it

"Mi, I'm sorry."

Park Chunsam was sad. I bought chicken and pizza myself when I couldn't deliver because of the snow.

I ran to get it before it got cold.

Park Chunsam stared at the TV that took away the love of his daughters and his wife.

"What kind of guy was there?".’

Jinseok was on TV.

"Come to think of it… Jinseok said his new drama will be released on the 24th.'

It was a drama about a gangster that Park Chunsam, a former detective, didn't like very much, but he said to Jinseok he wanted to watch it because he worked hard on it.

"He forgot about it."

Park Chunsam carefully put down chicken and pizza in the living room. Everyone would rush in like a hungry baby bird, but no one cares.

Park Chunsam was upset again.

However, Park Chunsam quietly watched TV because he didn't know what he would hear if he said a word.

[What should I do?]… [Jiyeon]

Jinseok murmured helplessly in the chaotic small shop. He looked really desperate sitting on his knees between the broken chairs.

I don't know what it's about, but….’

Admiring Jinseok's handsomeness, Park Chunsam opened a beer can he bought at a convenience store.

When it comes to alcohol, he picked beer loudly to get the attention of his wife, who was taking off the crane but was indifferent to return.

Park Chunsam drank beer in a sullen mood. Strangely, today's beer didn't taste good either.

"Whoa!"

"Mom, mom. I'm glad you asked me to see it, right?

"I know. Isn't ‘Oh Manho' so handsome?" He's such a good actor."

"Mom, it was ‘Nakamura' before this person. You didn't know that, did you?"

Park Chunsam felt alienated from the "family talk" that left him out.

‘I have to get my daughters' attention back somehow. Otherwise….’

Sooner or later, he might have to go fishing or hiking with Kim or the class president every weekend. I don't know if I'm with my family, but I didn't want to be with them.

‘Do I have to use that method after all?'

Park Chunsam decided to take out the secret card he had hidden so far to get his daughters' attention.

"Daughter, do you want me to let you talk to Jinseok?"

That was Jinseok.

Park Chunsam has not yet informed the house that he knows Jinseok.

Some of his fellow employees had already announced them, but Park Chunsam hid them until the end.

To overcome this very crisis.

The first daughter looked at Park Chunsam with suspicious eyes and said.

"Jinseok? Who is that?"

"Who do you mean? The one who came out in the drama you were watching earlier. Kang Jinseok."

Park Chunsam's confident voice made the house quiet for a moment.

"Dad, are you lying because you can't join the conversation?"

"Honey. But still, such a bluff to the kids….”

"Daddy, finish eating the chicken leg."

The answer was full of distrust and sympathy.

"No, it's true! "I'm very close to Jinseok!"

Park Chunsam said as if they were unfair. But it was still a cold response to come back.

"Okay, Dad. I'll enjoy the chicken and pizza. I love you. I love you."

"Yes, honey. We were so indifferent. You did a great job."

"Daddy, the chicken is going to get cold. Hurry up and eat the chicken legs first. "Huh?"

After running Park Chunsam roughly, the daughters and their wives went back to talking about the drama.

"Oh, my….”

Park Chunsam made a video call to Jinseok with a gallant breath.

[Hello?]

After a while, I saw Jinseok's face sweating, maybe he was exercising.

Park Chunsam shouted to Jinseok.

"Hey, Jinseok! Can you talk on the phone?!"

[Yes, it's possible]. But why did you make a video call….]

"Wait a minute. I'll get my girls."

[…What? Your daughters?]

Without answering Jinseok, Park Chunsam put his cell phone down on the table.

"Look! It's Kang Jinseok!" I'm close to Jinseok

“…Ha. Dad, I got it. Come here, let's eat together.

"Honey. Stop with that beer, go in and sleep."

"Okay. Dad, eat the chicken legs first."

The daughters and their wives sighed and told Park Chunsam.

[Uh…]… Hello, I'm Kang Jinseok. I'm always indebted to Chunsam.]

Park Chunsam's cell phone had a pleasant voice. The daughters and the wife saw Park Chunsam's cell phone at the same time.

"Laughing!"

"Ji, are you serious?"

"Mi, crazy! X, you're handsome."

Thanks to Jinseok, Park Chunsam was able to get his daughters' attention back.

***

December 25th, Christmas Day.

Now that most of them are having fun with their families, lovers, and friends.

There was only tension in the studio Redcat.

The reason is that today is the day when the ratings for the first day of "The Way They Chose" come out.

A viewing ranking is nothing more than a "report card" for a content producer. It was not strange that most of the staff gathered on holiday and were restless.

"Mr. PD! I got an email from the headquarters!!"

The employee pointed to the laptop and shouted. He was always a calm and calm employee, but now he was quite agitated.

People gathered quickly around the laptop.

Some rubbed their hands like flies to relieve their tension, and others covered their faces with their hands as if they couldn't see it.

"Whoa, what has come at last."

As Ha Sarang muttered and approached, the gathered employees made their way. With a nervous touch, she pressed an e-mail saying, "Netflix Original Ranking on December 24th."
