All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent

126.NFS(Not For Sale).

[(Figure photo) Newly displayed figure at Techpole Land office. Damn quality. Like crazy.]

– What is this? what kind of character is it?

– You look like Dexter Linder? behind the world.

– Crazy. where is this source from? personal work? Or, a new product from Hot Figures? Are you crazy about quality?

– Wow. Quality sucks. Is it possible to see if you go to Techpole? Can I go to Poland?

– How much is this? Where can I live?

– Wow. The other side of the world is now entering the goods business, finally! Take my money you motherf*ckers! Give me the goodies!

The figure of Dexter Linder that hit the community was a hot issue enough to have hundreds of comments in an instant, less than an hour after someone posted it.

The question is, what is the identity of this figure? who made it And are you selling it? If you sell, when will you sell? Price was not an issue in their interest.

It’s literally because the quality is crazy. The character’s posture, expression, and even the expression of the clothes were literally revealed at a glance what Jaeik intended to make this and what he wanted to express.

In addition, it was all the more so because after completing the figure, Jaeik said that it was a bit boring to put only one figure, and even drew a background diorama, literally transforming it into a perfect work of art.

[It was created by Song Jae-ik, the world’s original author. This is a figure that I made because I was bored when I was in Poland because of the games made by Techpole Land. It is a one-week work.]

– WTF! when you’re bored? You made that out of boredom?!

– really? no, crazy It seems like there are a lot of people who would buy it now, even with a price tag of thousands of dollars!

– Even that is a work that has been directly sculpted from the clothes to the face and body and completed the coloring. I just made it because I was really bored. I’m pretty sure I don’t plan on making more. As soon as the work was finished, I donated it to Techpole and left for the United States.

– You’re crazy. Now make a figure. I don’t know, but it wouldn’t be easy to make something like that. What the hell can’t that writer do?

– At this point, just accept whatever you do. I don’t think there are any more surprises now. Even if you become president, you can just do that.

The figure Jaeik made was about that. It wasn’t just a figurine. The quality is really crazy, but that one expression. It was literally the only masterpiece in the world with all of Jaeik’s touches in one wrinkle.

And isn’t the original word “limited” always igniting people’s desire to buy?

(Never! Never! They won’t sell even if you bring tens of thousands of dollars!)

bang-

Francis hung up angrily at a phone call offering him $10,000 if he sold the figure.

How many calls have you already made today? Its community is the problem. I could understand the phone call asking if I could just look at the figure.

If you are a fan of the underworld, it was only natural that you would want to see the figure in person.

(By the way! Where can you get an artist’s work for only $10,000!)

Of course, of course. Even though Francis Kloska made it clear that he never intended to sell, shouting NFS (Not For Sale.).

(Umm~ It’s a satisfying contract. As expected, there’s no time to get bored when I’m with you.)

(Do you like the contract that much?)

(I don’t think you’ll fail in what you’re doing. Besides, as I said on the phone, gaming is something I’m interested in.)

Spielberg eventually moved to Poland and signed a contract with Techpole Land to advise on game production.

The content is an advisory role in the production and direction of the behind-the-scenes world game. It couldn’t have been a position that was very suitable for Spielberg.

Especially for someone who is prolific in various fields like Spielberg.

Of course, I’ll be active in earnest a few years after game production has progressed to some extent, but I thought it was always right to put one foot in Jaeik’s work.

It was a feeling that came from experience.

(Well, that’s true. You have to make sure that you don’t fail at what you tried in the first place.)

Jaeik murmured as if he were talking behind his back.

(It shouldn’t even fail.)

Now, my failure is not regarded as my personal failure, but as the failure of all those who believe in me.

Especially after China was involved, I felt more like that. You Tube, webtoons, dramas, movies, animations, and games.

‘Cause I can never fail

That’s why sometimes I feel like I’m walking on thin ice every day, but now it seems like I’ve definitely crossed the point where I can enjoy it.

Anyway, should I say that I have gained an unshakable confidence in success through countless successes so far?

And even if it shakes a little, I have the confidence that I can definitely believe in myself and succeed.

(Heh heh. That’s true. I like being young.)

Spielberg, who did not listen to the back story, burst into laughter at Jaeik’s confidence in success.

(First time here? This is my office.)

(Five.)

The first thing I noticed upon entering Spielberg’s office was how clean it was.

A wooden desk and papers neatly laid out. and even the computer. And numerous framed posters leaning or hanging on the wall.

It was the feeling of showing traces of director Spielberg’s life through the numerous frames.

It was a little strange.

His office is rather dirty with piles of papers scattered all over the place.

(Oh. It’s very tidy today. The secretary arranged it neatly for guests to come. It’s not normally this tidy.)

(Ah. Is that so?)

It felt like I was in a fairy tale and came back to reality. After all, the master is also the same.

(Ah. Here it is.)

Spielberg pulled out a large binder from inside a drawer as if it were his treasure.

(It’s my treasure.)

When I opened the binder, all sorts of notes, photos, and pictures of people were attached to it.

(Treasure in the movie version is people. It’s not necessarily the staff who are good at their job, but the production crew that fits the genre or atmosphere of the movie.)

Read at readwn. com

Looking at the contents of the binder, it was neatly organized with notes and results for all the people needed to make the film, from the cinematographer to the costume and set designers.

All the people involved in the production of the film had to work together as one body to produce the result the director had in mind, so it was important to choose the person who was the best fit.

In addition, it was important to hire an exceptional production team for fantasy or period dramas.

(And now I have to finalize the script and start working on the storyboard. Of course I could do it on its own, but for the sake of perfection.)

(I fully understand what you mean.)

It was a time when many things were happening at the same time. A crew had to be recruited, and actors had to be cast at the same time. Not just one or two people, but dozens of people who need to be cast here and there.

Moreover, it was not a place where people shouted “pass” or “pass” through a single audition. According to the procedure, actors are selected through at least four auditions, and the script for the lead role is also distributed.

Of course, Jaeik and Spielberg weren’t going to see all those people, but shouldn’t they see the main characters unconditionally?

(I guess I’ll be busy again. In earnest.)

From Korea to Poland and the USA. Work was pouring in without a break.

—

News of the behind-the-scenes casting quickly spread throughout Hollywood.

(Hey, did you hear that?)

(What?)

(Besides that, I heard that world movie casting has begun? I heard they are recruiting pre-auditions now.)

No matter what anyone says, isn’t it the most anticipated movie shooting in the second half of the year? I’m guessing which movie will make the most money this year. A movie planned and made by Mflix, a movie adaptation of the famous original novel, and a movie directed by Spielberg.

It wasn’t just one or two adjectives that followed.

(What? Should I submit it right away?)

A list of characters to be cast in various parts, excluding the lead role, has already been distributed to agencies. What race, what age, what role needs casting.

At the same time, preparations for the open audition were well under way.

Within a day of talking about open auditions, thousands of resumes, profiles, and demo reels were already piling up.

(Oh. Really, please this time!)

(Everyone should be really nervous this time. I’m not joking right now, everyone is putting their lives on the line here.)

Of course, just as the scale of the Korean and American film industries is different, the process and scale within them were also different from those in Korea.

Hundreds or thousands of people apply for pre-auditions.

Even if you pass the document interview and go to the first audition, you can pass or fail within seconds because there are so many actors that you can kick your feet.

And the second audition ended in a few minutes, not seconds, but there were many cases that passed by in an instant.

Of course, in this second audition, if there are usually 2-3 times, if there are many times, 7-8 times, it was a lucky case to re-audition.

Because of this, the time required only for the casting process was at most several months. Literally an arena of infinite competition.

In addition, the reason why the audition in the back world received more attention was simple. Because the original novel had such a huge success and is reaping it. It was clear that many people would see it. That’s why if you appear in a movie and stand out. Or if you just get a better role.

Because next time I can go a little higher. Isn’t that the dream of every actor moving around Hollywood?

And now I’m quietly listening to it, like Jimmy Donaldson wading up sandwich paper and throwing it into the trash.

Preparations have already been completed. Not only did he search all the works of the writer Song Jae-ik, but he thoroughly studied the role he would play.

Since there was no agency, I had to go through the pre-audition stage, but if I went up, I would definitely have confidence.

—

(This is not normal.)

(It’s probably like that. It’s not like you’re looking at one or two people or picking one or two people. But thanks to the writer, it’s fortunate that the number of workers has increased. In times like these, it’s human nature to want to borrow at least a cat’s hand.)

Jaeik rubbed his stiff eyes and took his eyes off the papers.

In the pre-audition, there were thousands of documents that were filtered out in the first round.

There were hundreds of people who had to be selected from among them. I felt like I now know why the faces of the staff turned red when I was curious about Hollywood’s casting system and said I wanted to try it.

I wonder if it was an expression of the joy that even one more hand was added.

Jaeik moved away from the dense pile of paperwork and turned his attention to the demo reel (portfolio).

(Hoo…?)

And while looking at the demo reel, I found a demo reel that caught my eyes and my eyes lit up.

Why did you get involved in the paperwork? As always in all video works. There are many hidden talents that have yet to see the light of day.

And the pride I feel every time I find someone like that was because it was beyond my imagination.
