All-Round Genius Who Eats Talent

041. what i want to do

What would you do if anything was possible? This was a question I asked Kang-seok Um when I started You Tube. It was also a question I asked myself.

stock? Bitcoin? It was such an obscure talent. Even if I tried to digest the stock talent, I read the chart and analyzed the log scale, and it ended there.

Bitcoin will definitely rise there. Or it was going to get off. It was difficult to guess. I don’t know if anyone can tell me about the future.

Of course, you can hit short hits, but sitting in front of a computer all day looking at charts and signing contracts to buy and sell?

Isn’t it a waste of talent and time simply to do that?

Exercise? Obviously, the effect was good. I could be good at both basketball and soccer. It’s because he did the difficult personal soccer practice, which is often said, without difficulty.

But what? The stamina or body to do it was another matter. No matter how well you do, what will you do? I don’t have the stamina to play full 90 minutes of soccer.

I tried running once, but I couldn’t run for 90 minutes even if I died. I wonder if there was a new respect for athletes.

In other words, I accepted it as meaning that I had to take care of the hardware that used it even if I digested and used my talent in terms of software.

So, cooking, games, web novels, webtoons, dramas, long animations, composing, and writing lyrics.

The absorption and use of talent were all related to content. To the realm where I can fully use that talent 100%.

It is true that it has been shaken recently. Rather, it was because I was exposed to too much information and too much opportunity, and I was obsessed with some kind of obsession that I had to use this talent in various ways and use it like a machine. So rather, the decision paralysis came.

But now, I had no intention of changing that direction. Rather, it is only now that he has reflected on the talents he has ate up to now and has clearly decided on the direction he will move forward.

it this way Right on the cultural content side.

‘Even if it’s a bit late.’

Of course, I don’t know when I’ll change my mind because I act on a whim.

It was clear that it wasn’t right now. Rather, it is good to choose and focus even now.

In the corner of the filming set, the actors continued to act while talking quietly with Jeongyeon so as not to interfere with the filming.

“how about it. The filming set is more fun than you think, right?”

“Iknow, right. It’s even more lively than I thought.”

“But drama filming locations are all different depending on ratings and circumstances. To be honest, the atmosphere on the set is down a lot when the ratings aren’t coming out.”

“I’m sure it is.”

“In addition, it seems that the publicity effect of yesterday’s broadcast was better than expected. The PR team liked it.”

“That’s because I’m working for a fair price.”

“Ah, now this is my shoot. Looking good. I will show you how good I am at acting.”

Jeongyeon entered the set with a confident smile while Song Jaeik watched the performance with bated breath.

8 episodes already. It was only half of the 16 episodes, and at the same time, it was a scene that became the turning point of the story.

“If that happens, you can’t get out of here forever.”

“It’s okay though. Maybe from the moment this thing first started. I don’t know if I had a hunch that it was destined to happen like this.”

“then. At least if you are with me.”

Jeongyeon entered the set and showed a completely different side of herself, as if she had become a character in a drama, not the Jeongyeon she was talking to earlier.

‘Seeing it on TV and seeing it on the set have a different feel.’

“OK-! Good speed today! Are you all in good shape?”

“Did you know that our drama was posted on real-time search terms yesterday? There is still a month left until the airing. So it’s good.”

I’ve seen news or articles about the filming site going back and forth somewhere, but again, it didn’t seem like that.

It goes like this. The filming site.

Each one felt strange.

So naturally, that thought popped into my head.

What would it look like if I visualized the content I created and the original source?

drama? movie? game? theater? or something else?

“Writer Song!”

Song So-hyun greeted Song Jae-ik, who was looking at the set from a distance. How could Song Jae-ik not be happy? The results were great, and the publicity effect came as a bonus.

“Hello writer!”

“Did you come because of the webtoon today?”

“yes. The atmosphere on set is really good.”

“It has to be good.”

Song Jae-ik suddenly asked Song So-hyun a question. I looked it up after the meeting that day, but Song So-hyun was a middle-aged artist who created quite a variety of works.

Among them, there was also a mystery investigation that he found interesting.

“How did you feel when the script you wrote came out on TV?”

In response to that question, Song So-hyun tried to understand the intention of Song Jae-ik’s question with her eyes shining.

I already knew that he was writing web novels, making songs, and working in various fields.

Aren’t there quite a few writers who fall for web novels among the writers who work here?

“Aren’t you married yet?”

“yes. Not yet.”

“Well. how to say It’s not actually the child I gave birth to with a stomachache, but I think it’s similar. A child born of head and hands? It’s sad when something goes wrong anyway. But it’s still amazing. Watching the imagination in my head unfold on TV. Sometimes it goes in a direction you never intended.”

“I guess so, right?”

“And having a fan for my work makes me feel more proud. Personally, I don’t open my mouth about my work. never. I think dramas belong to those who interpret them.”

In other words, this question means that you are interested in this industry. And personally, Song So-hyun was quite open about this, so it was always welcome.

“If I had to give you one personal piece of advice, don’t put any limits on your creations. I am a drama writer, so I am thinking and writing within the framework of the medium of drama, but I hope writer Song does not. From the way you ask, it sounds like you’re interested in this. do you know There are works like Harry Potter in Korea too, are they the works of the author Song?”

At Song So-hyun’s advice, Song Jae-ik smiled. It was a single question, but I saw through what he meant by asking the question.

“Iknow, right. I really hope so. ”

Being outsourced for the drama was becoming a good choice.

Song So-hyun always gave me advice and threw something one by one every time I went to the set, wondering what kind of wind was blowing.

Because Song Jae-ik took that advice and at the same time was busy absorbing his talent for drama filming.

‘The beginning was to develop a drawing talent. It’s becoming something macro.’

“Don’t you think you’re going to be outsourced again these days?”

“Why outsourcing all of a sudden?”

“Just looking at it these days, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything else to do besides going to the drama set, writing, and drawing webtoons?”

To be honest, money didn’t mean much at that point when web novels were being paid for.

That alone was enough money to run the Challenge Everything Factory.

In addition, to borrow Kim PD’s words, all of the works have not yet been released on the platform, and they are secondary creations. In other words, since the OSMU project was not in progress, he said that the money coming in now would not be all.

Seraphim’s sound sources were also coming in quite well.

“Hey, let’s go. Could something like Harry Potter come out in Korea?”

“… Is the tteokbokki we ate at lunchtime spoiled? Are you sure you ate together? do you think it’s possible No, that doesn’t mean there’s no option, of course, but well. Do you think it’s difficult from a realistic point of view?”

“Surely it must be difficult, right?”

“It is not easy. It’s not just about writing well, it’s literally only possible when luck or everything comes together.”

Um Kang-seok was right. Because it is difficult in Korea’s deformed publishing market and genre fiction market.

‘If I can’t do it in Korea, shouldn’t I just go abroad?’

It was a direction that others could never easily think of. Even if you think about it right now, there are not just one or two problems.

The biggest one is the language problem.

The influence of translation also played a significant role in the work that won the Man Booker Prize a few years ago. And right now, the parasite that won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Didn’t I mention the importance of translation?

Translation should embrace the environment, culture, emotion, and even nuance. But a person who was born and raised in Korea would suddenly write a work like Harry Potter that would go global?

No matter who thought it, it was right to think it didn’t make sense.

However, Song Jae-ik was able to do all of that. Is it just language? Of course it wasn’t.

It was because he was able to take the top spot and lead the situation in the field no matter what kind of content he would create in the future. Really, any field in this world.

“I need to move up the webtoon launch date.”

“Launch day? how much?”

“About two months?”

“Do you have enough spare time?”

“Not enough.”

“Then we should run.”

It was simply because there were so many things he was doing right now that he had some time to spare on the webtoon launch day. You don’t have to do that now, do you?

one goal. It followed the main stem and the other things were going to be side branches now.

“Ew-!”

Ji-in Kim was on the verge of losing her mind at the suddenly pouring messenger alarm.

“what? What is it?”

“uh. CE writer. You suddenly sent a messenger bomb. Close to 30 at a time.”

“What? What’s your problem? Are you dissatisfied or Did Kim PD do anything wrong?”

“Wrong! There’s no way you can do that! In the first place, we were so busy that we couldn’t meet often, and we barely shared real feedback and business talk!”

Jiin Kim carefully clicked on the messenger sent by Jaeik Song. Suddenly, about 30 messengers were sent at once. No, exactly 34.

“This is stupid.”

[I have some spare time left, so I send the stockpile at once. Feel free to check it out.]

It sent 33 flights at once.

“What? 33 stockpiles? Even though you built up your stockpile like this, did you just send feedback on one episode a day? If this happens, other platforms…”

“Yes? Looking at the number of serials now, it was scheduled to go to another platform from next week.”

“Didn’t the writer suddenly have a change of heart? ”

belt ring-

[And I would like to advance the webtoon launch date a little. Can we have a meeting about it? I also have quite a stockpile of webtoons.]

“Is this the webtoon launch date?”

“Didn’t the writer say that you are doing other outsourcing work?”

“yes. Outsourcing the drama webtoon drawing. I thought it would start airing soon. Since it’s a 16-episode drama, I heard that the drama is still being filmed, so he intentionally takes his time leisurely.”

“But why are you suddenly doing that? I need to meet you soon Say you’ll see me at the factory. I will go with you to this meeting.”

It seemed that this meeting was not simply a problem to be solved on the PD line.

It is because the so-called special SSS-level writer suddenly had a change of heart. I had to see if there was something I didn’t like or if I had any complaints.

It was simply an action that Song Jae-ik had made to move quickly because he had set his goal, but Nettopia had no way of knowing that fact, so he was just worried about what might happen.

—

“yes? Seriously this way?”

Yoo Hae-jun and Kim Ji-in, who visited the factory with a worried heart, did not know for a moment whether they should like this or how to react to Song Jae-ik’s declaration that they would focus on this side in earnest.

‘So, does that mean that the conversion of over 20,000 is a work that did not put all efforts into it?’

Then, what does it mean if Song Jae-ik puts his full effort into it?

“You mean that you will go all-in towards webtoons and web novels when you are done with the drama you are doing right now?”

“Looks like that, right? Drama is not something I spend all my time on. Would you like to put more weight on the other side? That’s what web novels and webtoons are now.”

“It is a welcome thing for us. Just looking at the stockpile sent, I don’t have to worry about the speed of the writer’s writing. The same goes for webtoons. Is there anything we can do to help?”

“This is what you said when you signed the contract the other day. Saying that you are doing your best in other areas. That is enough.”

Because the area of sales, which is often said, was not my area. Later on, not sales, but all content production companies will come to you.

“And I’m thinking about it. We are thinking of hiring more people related to webtoons as well. Even if I’m involved in a lot of things, it would be more helpful if I left the simple parts to you.”

“It seems like a good choice. Ultimately, it is a question of efficiency. Then we will move according to the schedule of the writer.”

Eom Kang-seok, who was cleaning up after the Nettopia people left, pondered over what Song Jae-ik had said at the meeting a moment ago.

“suddenly? What’s the right word? What do you think? Things like hiring.”

“It’s something I’ve been thinking about before. We, YouTube, should also increase the scale. To be precise, it should be more like a group of comprehensive content creators rather than You Tube. I think the filming team should also be raised. The editorial team also needs to be increased. Like some kind of comprehensive content company? I guess I’ll have to get a fisherman first. Even if I write the whole thing, it is not a webtoon.”

“right. It’s okay. Then I will post the notice.”

For the purpose of recording, youtube was going to continue to go together. I’m still thinking about trying to do something with Nutube because the exact method hasn’t come out yet.

“Befitting the name of a real challenge everything factory. We need to create a creative team.”

After all, in this era, the power in this field is the source of the source. Isn’t it in intellectual property (IP)?
