Became a Genius Writer the Popular Actresses Is Obsessed With

152 – Unboxing (3)

“It’s already December.”

“Okay. “The second half of the year melted away thanks to the movie.”

I sighed and nodded at Cha Mu-sik’s words.

Honestly, this year was really hectic and busy, whether it was the first or second half.

Children dreaming in the first half of the year, summer without you in the second half of the year.

And in between, a face-to-face meeting with Prince Muhammad, the Da-hye Lee stalker incident, the kidnapping of Kwon Dae-han, the disclosure of the identity of the 927 writer, and the official romantic relationship between Seol So-young and Da-hye Lee, etc.

Hmm… ?

Looking back, I think I was at the center of all the events this year, to the point where I couldn’t help but feel that time was passing quickly.

“Why are you suddenly looking tired?”

“No, it seems like there were especially many accidents this year. But I was involved in everything to the extent that it was suspicious.”

“Have you realized that now? “Starting with your retirement this year, you’ve literally rocked the world.”

Write… ….

For some reason, I can’t refute that statement, but it’s not up to me.

“I want to live quietly next year. “I think this year was a bit harsh.”

“Okay. “You probably lived the hardest year of your life this year?”

“That’s not it.”

“You answer this immediately.”

I firmly shook my head at Cha Mu-sik’s words.

Like he said, it’s true that he worked hard this year. But I don’t think it’s the best.

If you think about your past life, especially the year you died, this is a small amount.

Of course, this was only based on fatigue, but…….

“Anyway, you will be excluded from the festival stage tomorrow, right? “Have a drink, Saegya.”

Cha Mu-sik said with a look of envy.

Hanbit Arts High School’s festival is unique and lasts for two days.

On the first day, a total of 16 stage performances centered on each 1st and 2nd grade class will be performed, followed by a club stage on the next day.

Among them, it seems that our class decided to sing as a group choir for the stage performance on the first day.

I even heard that it was a self-composed song led by students in the Department of Practical Music.

Originally, the majority of people were of the opinion that they wanted to create an all-time great stage performance led by 927 writers Seol So-young and Lee Da-hye, but all three were so busy with their personal schedules that they were unable to make it happen in the end…….

“In the end, the plan led by the 927 artist was decided to be scheduled for next year, and somehow a group choir was decided.”

“Hey, but wait a minute. To say that, I know that Soyoung and Dahye are singing together, but why am I the only one left out?”

“You heard the reason too. It was natural that preparing for the movie was mentally and physically difficult, so I was left out. You just need to prepare well for the club stage that will decorate the finale. “Our class wants that, and the entire student body wants that.”

“So? “I’ve heard all the superficial reasons, but what is the exact reason?”

“You know, you can’t sing. “After hearing you sing a verse of a choir song as a test a month ago, he immediately made an exception.”

“… ….”

I bowed my head in response to Cha Mu-sik’s factual assault that hit my bones.

I know.

I think I’m good at most things pretty quickly, but the only thing I’m bad at is singing.

“I’m not tone deaf, and my voice isn’t strange, but when I look at things like this, it seems like God is very fair.”

“This bastard is excited to find something to make fun of me for the first time in a while.”

“Tsk tsk tsk. Anyway, erase the half-stage performance from your mind and pay more attention to the highlights.”

Highlights.

The highlight mentioned by Cha Mu-sik refers to the joint performance between the Theater and Film Department and the Theater Department that will conclude the festival on the second day.

In fact, the only thing that can be called a performance is a brief introduction by me and a movie being shown on a big screen like a movie theater.

And since the running time is approximately 120 minutes, it will probably be the longest performance ever in the history of Hanbit Arts High School.

They say the end of the festival was an hour later than usual because of this, but there didn’t seem to be any complaints.

After all, it is a privilege to be the first to see my movie a day ahead of time…….

In addition, it is said that, excluding students and teachers, a limit was placed on the number of people watching the stage on the second day.

Originally, the Hanbit Arts High School Festival had no restrictions on visits from outsiders, and it is said that many people actually come and go.

I heard that people in the entertainment industry in particular are very interested in stage performances, but this year, it seemed like restrictions were placed on the number of people entering to prevent accidents.

I couldn’t help but imagine how many people would flock there if there were no restrictions like before.

“But he’s not coming this time?”

“Him?”

“What and who is it? He’s making that expression. “The person who is your big fan.”

“Oh, Crown Prince Muhammad?”

Cha Mu-sik nodded.

But that was a bit of a useless worry.

Actually, this time, they contacted me saying that they couldn’t come because they had so many backlogged schedules.

And I think the reason for the delay in the schedule may be largely due to my requesting help from Crown Prince Muhammad during the Kwon Daehan incident.

But I am the type of person who cannot live with debt. In that sense, his country will probably be the first country where ‘Summer Without You’ will be exported overseas.

I understand that the discussion has already ended with Studio N Mix.

“Well, that’s true. But now that I think about it, the title is ‘Summer Without You’ but it airs in winter. Isn’t this part a little disappointing? Personally, I think it would have been better to screen it when you can feel that unique summer feeling.”

“As you said, it doesn’t feel like it was made a little hastily. But I don’t think the season really matters.”

Originally, as he said, we were planning for next summer. If the shooting had been done in the spring, the picture might have been better?

But the conclusion is that it doesn’t really matter when it airs.

In spring, you will be able to feel that summer is approaching, and in fall, you will be able to feel the emotions of summer that have already passed.

And lastly, I think that the ‘bitterness’ will remain a little more deeply in winter.

“Anyway, I’m a little looking forward to the results of these four movies. “Aren’t you honestly excited too?”

“Um… To some extent. But it wasn’t like we overinvested that much anyway, and it was produced as a final product on a low budget, so even if it fails, it won’t be a huge blow.”

“What if, on the other hand, it prospers?”

“I guess that’s just as scary as it is.”

To be honest, The Summer Without You was made on a low budget.

Extra actors were replaced with students and the main background filming location was rented out for free. In addition, there was no need to use fancy CG like in action movies, so the break-even point was quite low.

I heard that the break-even point is 1.2 Million people…….

Honestly, considering the value of my name, I think it would be easy to overcome that level.

What you need to think about here is when you double your grades there.

“What is the number one movie audience in Korea in history?” ….”

“10 Million. Even that was an overseas film. “Based on domestic film standards, 8 million was probably the highest.”

“No, how do you know such TMI?”

“Why are you saying this so suddenly? As I always said, I am the son of someone who works at a newspaper, and I plan to work there as soon as I graduate. Of course, the more you know, the better, right?”

Cha Mu-sik said that as if it was natural.

If you ask Cha Mu-sik a question like this, there is a 90% chance that he will give you the correct answer.

In this respect, this guy also seems to have a calling. It would be nice if the community was just reduced a little.

“So, what does our 927 writer expect the performance of his film to be?”

“I just hope it exceeds 10 million.”

A great record, often called the 10 million movie.

The profit is profit, but it is also a very honorable record.

In my previous life, the culture of movies was quite familiar and close to people, and there were quite a few movies that were viewed more than 10 million times, but the story seems to be a little different here.

It seems that film culture is not that developed.

Maybe it’s because there haven’t been any interesting movies so far.

What is clear is that the number of people watching movies is significantly lower than in previous lives.

So, I thought that winning 10 million was a bold ambition…… Cha Mu-sik’s expression was not very good.

“What? “It’s unusually simple.”

“10 Million is simple?”

“Think about the viewership ratings of your drama. You passed 40% by default. Has there ever been a drama that consistently exceeded 40% in viewership ratings? “Is that even three works?”

Write… ….

According to what he said, there was nothing.

A 40% viewership rating was also a record, as was the name of the passing dog.

“I don’t think the situation will be that much different in movies. 927 This is the author’s first film. How much interest will people have in watching it? “There are probably a lot of people who see it two or three times.”

“Wait a minute. “Then what do you think?”

“Hmm? “I’m not sure exactly how many people will see it?”

“Ha?”

“Hey, look at the reaction. You have to listen to Korean people until the end. “In conclusion, we expect the number to be above 17 million.”

“Seventeen millionth place? “You really know how many people there are in our country, right?”

“Don’t I know that? “Then why don’t you at least make a bet with me?”

“No… It’s a genre, and it’s not a story that can be seen multiple times…….”

“Seo Eun-woo special, he only bets to win. “You got the answer right away, right?”

Tsk.

I deliberately refrained from saying anything because I thought the disappointment would be doubled if I got bad grades while looking forward to it.

Anyway, I’m talking about it so casually now, but I felt like I could predict the exact score based on the reactions of people who saw my film for the first time on the second day of the festival.

And the second day of the festival arrived quickly.
