25 – Can I use this?

Episode 25

In the president’s office, which had a plain design that felt a bit dry, Cheon asked A-ram Cheon.

“How long are you going to play house?”

“Well, I guess I’ll have to try more. I met a really interesting person right now.”

In response to her answer, Cheonsun took a deep breath and said,

“Sell the buildings and facilities quickly and return to the SS. Didn’t you prepare the building and equipment to sell it as a package product in the first place? Get it sorted out before you gossip. Word is now coming out of the old people who pay for it. What you’re doing isn’t free. It’s all debt.”

“If I go back now, the succession plan that I have worked so hard to organize will be shaken again.”

“His succession structure has already been shaken by Cheon Jong-hoon’s bastard son.”

Aram Cheon said after shedding a little laugh.

“Then I really shouldn’t go back.”

Master Cheon looked at his daughter with bulging eyes. And he spoke in a voice that revealed his roughness.

“If you start a company, it will definitely fail. It is impossible to recruit competent talent who satisfies those conditions. “The flying guys are all extraordinary because they are greedy.”

“Grandpa did it, right?”

“That’s what makes him special, and you’re not the father.”

“I plan to become special like him. Like Grandpa Cheon Tae-cheon, who was called Hyeon-woong. That’s why I named my company Two Bear, or Second Bear.”

Master Cheon looked at her as if he did not like her will and said.

“Then at least select people very carefully, even if it takes time. Don’t gather random people just based on smell. Otherwise, even if we fail, we will fail completely.”

“Do not worry. “I also have no intention of choosing someone half-baked.”

She said as she left the president’s office.

“Thank you for the advice. father.”

Looking at the door where Cheon A-ram left, Cheon muttered something that no one could hear.

“We shouldn’t have strange bugs sticking around.”

In the end, the concerns I wanted to convey as a father were not conveyed.

***

I haven’t come up with an effective way to drain Cheon A-ram’s pockets yet.

But I didn’t want to give up on the quest.

Therefore, I wanted to first reveal one piece of information that must be confirmed.

“… “So there’s a kid in this cafe you need to check on?”

“Yes, it is. “He has an overwhelming appearance, so you will know who he is as soon as you see him.”

I took Cheon A-ram and stopped by the cafe where Yu Ga-eul works.

If Cheon A-ram evaluates Yu Ga-eul as having a smell, all quests and recruitment become meaningless.

Is there any way for the representative to say no?

I should just give up.

Therefore, the odor had to be checked first and foremost.

“I know right away who it is. “Are you talking about that brown-haired kid?”

“That’s right. “Please go and smell it.”

Cheon Aram tilted his head and said.

“I feel like I’m a dog sniffing something, but… .”

“A sniffing dog? Boss Cheon is not that kind of pet dog. “You can think of it as a drug detection dog that focuses its efforts on public interest!”

“… “After all, it’s a dog.”

Although Cheon A-ram was grumbling, she stood in line at the order counter to smell Yu Ga-eul.

I looked at that figure a little nervously.

Personally, I think it is unlikely that Yu Ga-eul, who seemed to have a strong desire for money, will not smell anything.

But even so, I had a lingering wish that it didn’t smell.

After a while, Cheon A-ram seemed to have finished ordering and came towards me holding a call bell.

“What did it smell like?”

She smiled and said with satisfaction.

“It didn’t come out,”

“… “Not one?”

“It doesn’t mean it doesn’t come out at all, so it should be said that it almost doesn’t come out, but even so, it was minimal. “It wouldn’t be a big problem if I lived in the same house with that kid.”

I was slightly thrilled. Finally, a talent who could overcome Cheon A-ram’s strict sense of smell appeared.

That’s even while possessing the greatest talent of all time.

“You want to recruit that kid?”

“Yes, it is. There is something I would like to ask for your opinion on that.”

“hmm? What kind of opinion would Team Leader Seon be curious about? Regarding recruitment, I plan to actively accept and support team leader Seon’s opinion.”

“I am saying this because I think that support could be bigger than I thought.”

Cheon Ah-ram laughed as if he was interested in my words.

As usual, it was a look that reminded me of a poisonous snake.

“good. say it.”

I swallowed a little to relieve tension and opened my mouth.

“They say they need money.”

“Hmm… . “You still look like a kid, already?”

“I didn’t see it for personal reasons. It seemed to be woven into family troubles, perhaps.”

Ga-Eul Yoo tried to look mature with makeup, but she couldn’t completely hide her face value.

Perhaps her age is somewhere between the first and second year of high school.

At that age, not going to school and working four part-time jobs did not seem like an act of personal desire.

These are desires that would be appropriate for a girl of that age, such as wanting to travel abroad or participate in a fan signing event for a popular boy group.

The labor that Yu Ga-eul is currently experiencing is close to a sacrifice that reduces her life. There must have been a motive that led him to make such a sacrifice.

‘How much money do you think it takes to raise a middle school child with a dream of art?’

And according to what I said yesterday, I thought the motivation was family influence.

“So what Team Leader Sun wants to say is that we need to make up for the lack of money to recruit that kid?”

“you’re right. “If it is difficult to become a trainee because money is an obstacle, giving money will solve the problem.”

“How much does it cost?”

I opened my mouth even though I recognized that I was mentioning an absurd amount.

“It’s 100 million won.”

Cheon Aram sighed deeply.

“… Team leader Sun. You know that money is not so light, right?”

Why don’t I know?

“I know. That is an outrageous amount of money to spend on one trainee.”

“SS used to spend 100 million won per year per trainee, so investing that much money is not absurd.”

I could get a glimpse of her distribution simply by citing the SS as an example, which had a completely different location.

“You can use it. I also intend to invest in a proper team. For this, we will put great effort into persuading investors.”

Yes. It was an ‘investment’ after all.

“But what Team Leader Sun is talking about now is not the money invested in trainees, but the money that must be given, right?”

The gap between investment and gifting was as big as heaven and earth.

Still, I had no choice but to say yes.

“That’s right.”

Cheon A-ram spoke with a purely questioning expression.

“Are there any investors willing to pay money here?”

Even though I had doubts about what I was saying, I said it as if it was a natural thing.

“Because I have the talent to do so.”

“Yes, since Team Leader Sun is such a charming kid, he must have talent. Maybe he’s a kid who deserves to be called a genius. I trust Team Leader Sun’s eyes, so I won’t doubt this.”

I bowed my head in her faith and said.

“It is an honour.”

Cheon Ah-ram shook his head from side to side as if there was no need to say such a thing and continued.

“The fact that it hardly smells to me is also a great value. It’s nice to be in such a hurry for money and yet have little greed. There will be no reason to make gossip about your personality.”

Ga-eul Yoo was a good talent.

As I judged it, she admitted it too.

“But if you ask, ‘Is it worth 100 million won?’, I’ll say it as the president of Two Bear Entertainment.”

A stern voice separated me from her.

“That’s a rip-off.”

Cheon A-ram’s eyes glowed with an insidious color.

“I don’t think there is any talent in the world that is unique. “Do you have any spares for that kid?”

It was the only part I was confident in.

“There are only four, if not two, talents in Korea. That kid named Yoo Ga-eul is a vocalist who goes beyond the word genius. “If we get enough support, we will leave our mark on the world.”

Yuga-eul will be worth more than just one won.

“… That’s incredibly overrated. “If that’s true, he really is a great kid.”

Although Cheon A-ram was impressed, he did not forget his duty.

“Do you think there are only four children with talent one level lower than that child?”

“It is not.”

There were quite a few candidates whose vocal potential was A+ rather than S.

The child I was planning to meet next also had a lower average score than Gaeul, but his vocals were A+.

“Then find those kids and hire them. “I’m not a kid who demands work from my trainee days.”

I almost nodded for a moment.

Because that was the accident that made me decide to give up Yuga-eul.

“Finding money in the entertainment industry is actually no different from gambling. Creating a perfect product does not necessarily mean it will be successful. On the other hand, creating a product that is even slightly inferior in quality does not mean it will fail.”

Yu Ga-eul will definitely succeed.

However, just because it is not oil fall does not mean that it cannot be successful.

In the first place, there are very few cases where trainees are hired by paying money.

Even without that, there are a lot of aspiring idols out there.

There is a standard down payment, but it is at the level of pocket money.

“We are taking risks and jumping into the game. But Team Leader Sun doesn’t seem to see that risk?”

If the risk could be reduced, it should be reduced.

And the risk of oil fall was too great.

“More than anything, what we are preparing is a girl group, right? Not as a solo artist.”

A-ram Cheon declared.

“But if I show up like this from now on, I will be viewed as the person who demands 100 million won every time Team Leader Seon looks for a trainee. “Is this okay?”

Despite giving a clear warning, Cheon A-ram did not show any emotions such as anger or irritation.

All I could see was one clear line.

However, it was believed that if that line was crossed, the snake named Cheon A-ram would begin to show its teeth.

I realized that Cheon A-ram’s usual gaze, as if he were looking at a playful rat, was filled with great kindness.

That was the gaze that Cheon A-ram showed to others outside the line.

I felt goosebumps and even felt fear.

I wondered if he really had any experience working in the mafia or something like that.

But I didn’t back down.

“I’ll bet a year’s salary on it.”

I decided to be shameless.

Just like right before the regression when I decided to live selfishly,

“If you decide later that the child wasn’t worth it, you can claim that money from me.”

This was a bet that would not fail.

It is an unchanging certainty that Yu Ga-eul will definitely succeed.

That kid will definitely succeed even if you give him a third-rate ballad that is out of season and make him debut.

In the end, there was only benefit to me if I recruited Yu Ga-eul.

Because you can receive both the reward and success of the quest.

The risks Cheon Aram had to take were none of my business.

What mattered was my success.

It is not for the benefit of Two Bear Entertainment.

“Team Leader Seon, do you understand exactly what that means? It’s not just a bet. The moment one side wins there, the leadership will change. Either I become the owner of the pants. Either the team leader becomes a half-slave. … “Whether I lose or win, I benefit financially, but is that really a healthy relationship?”

“I appreciate your consideration, but the only thing I can risk is my future.”

Cheon Aram stared into my eyes.

I also looked into her eyes.

In the void of silence that the cafe’s hustle and bustle could not erase, Cheon A-ram opened her mouth as if she had lost.

“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear this. I want to get along well with Team Leader Seon. “It’s not a relationship with a scary name like a debt relationship.”

She was concerned that her relationship with me would change dramatically.

And Cheon A-ram smiled brightly and said, as if all the pressure so far had been a joke.

“So it’s a rejection. Team leader Sun. There’s plenty of time. Because it’s okay to take it slow. “Let’s find another child.”

***

Application was rejected by Cheon A-ram.

I wasn’t disappointed. Because she just made a rational decision as a businesswoman.

On the contrary, I felt a little fortunate. Because she was not considered an idealist who was buried under the word humanist.

At least it seemed like the company wouldn’t go bankrupt because Cheon A-ram made an unreasonable choice.

Therefore, it seemed difficult to persuade her unless he could prove something new.

The scales of my heart tipped over the decision to give up on Yu Ga-eul.

But there was a feeling of regret in one corner of my heart.

I clicked on the reward window out of frustration.

In the reward window, there was only the ‘Finger Jukebox’ that seemed useful for talent shows.

As I was looking at it and thinking about random things, such as, ‘Should I do a part-time session job on the weekend?’, a thought flowed through my head like an electric current.
