All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent

177. Challenge Everything Convention (1)

“What is this…”

Starting from the congratulatory speech at the graduation ceremony, Kang Seok was on the verge of losing his mind at the sudden pouring in of job applications.

Challenge Everything has always lacked talent. That’s why the job posting was always hiring until a satisfactory person was selected.

By the way, Jaeik’s graduation speech. And since the feedback incident, has the number of applicants for Challenge Everything increased at least threefold?

“no. hey. They said that the seed is not so easily identified. Besides, I don’t think there is only one seed?”

At Kang Seok’s words, Jae Ik just burst out laughing.

‘How could I have known that such a quick reaction would come?’

“What is the power of the Internet? It’s really crazy crazy. Apparently, the number of applicants increased because of the graduation ceremony.”

It started with an article and a You Tube video posted on the American Archivist.

[California Art College Graduation Ceremony – Jaeik Song. (Feat. Bad Feedback)]

A post and video posted by a student who received feedback from Jaeik, including his portfolio, feedback, and congratulatory video.

Not to mention the reaction.

– Oh my gosh. Who in the world could do that

– Feedback from over 100 people? Even for individual portfolios?

– The real suffering is clearly visible in the eyes. Not even sloppy feedback.

– He is a painter by profession. If I can get that kind of feedback, I think I can bury my bones in Challenge Everything.

– I am an art college student. It is said that even the professors were surprised. At least, it’s certain that Song Jae-ik’s skills are far superior.

I am also the first student who received feedback. really. nothing to say Everyone around me is working on portfolio editing right now.

– Leaving all that aside, it’s amazing that people can do that without paying anything.

– In-person badge. That much honestly.

Needless to say, public opinion was favorable to Jaeik. Not only from archivists, but even from the news.

[‘What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.’ Congratulatory speech at the graduation ceremony at the California Art College, Jaeik Song.]

[Song Jae-Ik’s congratulatory remarks cheering the graduates. Even unexpected feedback for students taking their first steps in society.]

[Goodwill without cost. Song Jae-ik performing noblesse oblige.]

– Besides, these days, the job openings are wide open.

– 24/7 support. It’s not that people go out and pick, they just pick, pick, and pick again.

– I heard that internal welfare is also good?

– According to the news, they said they would move to the new office building soon. I am thinking of expanding the company.

– But it’s a congratulatory message. It really touches me. It’s not wrong. Because reality is harsh.

The good image of Luke’s work was already bad, so it was stabbing the sky. Shall we say that we are walking on Tantan-daero with a flower road literally spreading out in front of our eyes?

In addition, the content of the congratulatory message was perfect. Because it was words that made the viewer nod their heads.

“Anyway, thanks to that, I think we will be able to complete the recruitment of personnel in time for the new building.”

Not just story writers, translators, and picture writers. The same applies to recruitment in the numerous business fields that Challenge Everything will pursue in the future.

“Besides, there are quite a few art college graduates among the applicants. I’m sure there are quite a few people moved by your speech?”

“okay?”

On the monitor, the personal histories of people who applied for jobs were displayed, and Kang Seok painted the students from the Arts College yellow.

Considering the numerous universities in the United States, the number of applicants from art colleges compared to the total number of applicants was high.

“This is the influence of your graduation ceremony feedback and congratulatory remarks. And are you going to go to the new office building today?”

“I have to go. Afternoon. Because I have to do a final check before opening.”

After completing all the interiors, the US office building of Challenge Everything was about to open. But there were other things that had to take precedence.

“Right away?”

“No, from the convention first. We decided to have a planning meeting today.”

As I mentioned earlier, the hosting schedule for the Challenge Everything Convention was confirmed, and at the same time, a full-fledged planning meeting was scheduled.

room right next door. Let’s go into the conference room. In order to prepare for the 1st Challenge Everything Convention, all the part leaders of each part were gathered, and everyone was making a solemn expression that they would unconditionally make this first convention a success.

(Everyone’s expression is so spleen. I thought it was a war.)

It wasn’t until Jaeik entered the meeting room that people’s expressions and atmosphere relaxed a bit.

(Has the rental contract been completed?)

(Yes. We rented the Los Angeles Convention Center for 3 days from March 10th to 12th. Basic construction went in as instructed last time.)

three months. and three days. That was enough time. Because the convention center has already started changing the foundation.

(Then, from today until March, we will temporarily suspend the launch of new works.)

(New work? All?)

(Yes. All launches will be open at our convention in March. The same goes for goods.)

After the license sale negotiations, samples came out and work for the final confirmation was underway, but Jaeik planned to postpone even that to March.

(Of course, the goods business and production will continue. Literally, we set the goods opening as our convention day in March.)

It was a one-time convention, but I was planning to explode many things at the same time. The launch of new works and universe goods. richer and more splendid.

Maybe the goods makers would like that too. There’s nothing wrong with taking care of publicity.

(You’re thinking of revealing everything at once on the convention day in March.)

(Yes. And there will also be a presentation of my personal work that day.)

(Ohhhh! No way?)

Jaeik’s personal work. Whether it’s a script or a novel. Wouldn’t it be a presentation that would not be inferior to the main event?

Of course, there were only two novels at this convention. Behind the scenes part 3 and Ricky’s story part 2.

simultaneous release. The novel had already been written for a long time. I was just putting it aside for a while to adjust the release date.

In terms of progress, would the article I am writing now be part 5 of the world behind the scenes and part 5 of Ricky’s story?

(The section is largely divided into four areas: Challenge Everything, Amplix, Techpole Land, Watpad. And the Main Hall.)

All of them were companies that were doing well, but this time, the main focus was on promoting Jaeik’s content, not promoting their own content.

(Challenge Everything will launch new works and goods, Amplix will promote our new dramas and movies, Techpoleland will promote the demo version of games currently in development, and Watpad will promote our webtoons and webnovels.)

Jaeik started drawing on the conference hall project in real time. Five bizarrely divided zones.

(And please enter the interior as soon as the foundation work of the convention center is completed.)

It was as if four zones were surrounding the main hall in the middle.

and.

(The other side world?)

The area felt like a compressed version of the main background stage of the Underworld.

(This is the correct answer.)

As the four stages of the background were compressed into one, the theme was also planned to be faithfully decorated to the background.

(Themes are as follows.)

It was not a prearranged announcement or instruction.

Because Jaeik was creating design ideas for the convention center on the spot.

(Zone 1, closest to the entrance, is Wattpad, clockwise to Amplicix, Challenge Everything, and Techpole Land. In particular, you should pay more attention to the interior of the center stage.)

The basic goal was to draw people’s attention by placing the Challenge Everything in the innermost part. In the big picture, it was all Jaeik’s work, but the composition took into account people’s movements and impressions.

Jaeik’s hand moved without rest. Sculptures and designs that fit the concept of each area, as well as lighting and atmosphere.

Besides, I don’t know how crowded it would be, but even if there were quite a few people, there wouldn’t be a lot of crowding in either side.

(And. The most important thing about this space is the feeling of immersion. It’s like the fans have stepped into another world.)

So the most important point.

(I think we need to make the necessary video or media art separately. 3 months should be enough. I’m in charge of the BGM. And we also need events.)

(event?)

In the minds of employees, things like products and prizes naturally came to mind. Because they said they would release the goods there too.

(Think of giveaways and prizes, right? Of course, such events are good. But, as I said, the events I plan are immersive. Hire actors and extras. And for three days, the Underworld is not just a convention center. The Underworld The forces inside will become a battlefield.)

(Oh my God. If it’s such an event, obviously.)

(So zone!)

Only then did the people who realized Jaeik’s intentions listen with their mouths wide open.

(I will create and deliver the repertoire. I will deliver the required number of people within today. Hire the best people and practice them as much as possible.)

Maybe it’s the best gift for fans? I will never forget that either.

It was only a three-hour meeting. Everything about the 1st Challenge Everything Convention has been decided.

Of course, the details were issues that had to be resolved by the working-level staff.

(I guess I’ll have to go to the office building. Details please.)

(Yes. Boss!)

A huge building in Korea. and the US headquarters. There are conventions and growing businesses.

Now, both internally and externally, the company was developing a look that could be truly called a ‘corporate’.

—

(It’s just fine.)

Just right. It was Jaeik’s impression of visiting the office building. I even thought of building a new one, but that took too long.

That’s why it was decided to put it off as a later task and purchase a decent building to use.

‘Because I can build a new building later.’

(I changed the interior as you said. The on-site supervisor was surprised to see the design given by the CEO. Is he someone who worked in this industry?)

Following the guide, Jaeik looked around the building and nodded in satisfaction.

Everything went well until the end. Furnishings were also in place, and there was only one thing this building lacked. It was people.

(I can go to work in the new building right next year after the Christmas holidays.)

(Yes. I’m guessing that will happen. In the new building in the new year. It’s perfect.)

Starting from Christmas, the Warriors’ Day off for Challenge Everything was scheduled to continue until January 1st. And when I greet the new year of 2023, I really thought that next year would be a really unforgettable year.

Tiriri-

Jaeik’s expression brightened when he answered the phone with a monotonous ringtone.

“ah. Have you contacted the company? Do you have any intentions?”

It was because the result of contacting the company regarding the high-end figure that came out at the meeting not long ago came out.

– yes! I also really liked it on that side. It’s honestly close to impossible for a Korean startup to get a good license.

“It’s good. Then please make an appointment. I will go to Korea.”

It seemed good to go directly to the company that was contacted now. It’s a figure, but it’s not an existing figure, it’s a new figure.

It is to digest new talents and to check the work directly.
