Chapter 48
Episode 48
[Hello, this is Wiz Entertainment Korea. If you have time, can I see you?]
“Hmm.”
After getting out of < Galaxy-M24 Apple >, Jin-seong narrowed his eyes while reading the message he received in the game.
It was because he wanted to know the right place.
< Wiz Entertainment >!
It is managed as a subsidiary of < Switch >, the world’s largest Internet broadcasting platform, and is also linked to < Switch >, a global social network, so there is no management company in Korea to follow.
And through memories of his previous life, Jin-seong was able to vaguely recall that there were a large number of leading streamers belonging to < Wiz Entertainment > and among them, Korean rankers.
– [Woongjyuyong] ★Adventurer 1st place ★New continent exploration pioneering rate 84.22% Running♨♨
– [Nyan Nyang Sense] ※Dia—Master Section 126 hours of self-indulgence @@@@@@@※ Don’t copy this, this is the player’s domain Because of this
– [Phoenix TV] ▶+15 Chanduka’s Rage◀ We have a hero with crazy specs hahahaha
– [King Cheol-soo Kim Cheol-soo] Atrocious success rate 《Rültgen’s Sword》 16th… Does this make sense?
….
In other words, < Wiz Entertainment > was no different from a company of envy that all streamers who can be proud of being the undisputed No. 1 10 years ago and now want to go to.
“…But why did Wiz Entertainment contact me?”
Tring!
Jinseong rubbed his chin while looking at the in-game message linked to his smartphone.
It was not easy to understand.
Of course, < Wiz Entertainment > was a well-known global company, but Jinseong had never recorded a video while playing the game.
-9999999999 because of the atrocious tendency, he had never played a party with anyone.
It was said that there had to be a point of contact so that there could not be.
Not to mention, most of the people he’s met so far are Steelbum who tried to steal his thing or people who realizing that he’s a Kao user and arguing with him… ‘…No way?
‘
flash!
So, Jin-seong opened his eyes at the thought that passed through his mind like lightning, and he thought that maybe the intention of this note was not so innocent.
It might have been an unsavory warning letter, tantamount to a declaration of war.
If there are streamers from Wiz Entertainment or gamers directly or indirectly connected to them among the users he has encountered, it was understandable that the company contacted them through the in-game message system.
“Oops. This feels strong…”
Jinseong licked his lips as an ominous feeling came over him.
It was because of the memory of the previous life.
According to his memory, Wiz Entertainment was famous for being a subsidiary of Switch, but it was also famous for taking care of its streamers.
Considering that all the gamers who had been pretending to be with Wiz Entertainment at the time were all in a bad shape, it was no exaggeration to say that there was nothing good about him being involved with Wiz Entertainment.
I was told that I needed to be careful.
Although it may not have been as disgraceful as he thought, it was not a small thing to respond to the invitation hastily.
“How do I do this…”
Talk! Talk!
And the moment when Jin-seong knocks on the living room table with his brow furrowed and struggles over and over again in his head.
– RRRRRR—!
Suddenly, the smartphone in front of him rang once, and at the same time, an unfamiliar voice began to ring in Jinseong’s ears.
– Hello, this is Wiz Entertainment Korea Jeong Seong-hoon. Is your nickname Damian?
It was the person who drove him into trouble.
* * *
“It must have been a sudden request… Thank you very much for your response.”
“Ah yes. no.”
Somewhere in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
Jinseong turned his head at the Han River overlooking the window. The cafe located on the 13th floor was also famous for its rooftop view and authentic French desserts.
Considering that a cup of coffee is priced at 10,000 won, and the average dessert price is 20,000 to 30,000 won, you can easily say, “This is really Cheongdam.”
“Does the dessert suit your taste? This is a place where one coffee is amazing, but desserts are a bit different.”
“It’s sweet and nice. It also contains nuts.”
“haha. If so, you’re lucky. Weren’t you uncomfortable coming here?”
“no. It didn’t take long.”
However, Jinseong could feel that he cared more about the slender man in a neat suit in front of him than the menu of the premium dessert shop called Cheongdam-dong Hot Place.
‘Did you say team leader…?’
Jeong Seong-hoon, team leader.
He was the chief PD of the Contents Team 2 of Wiz Entertainment Korea.
“Actually, I was dubious. It might seem rude to ask to see you out of the blue, and I didn’t ask verbally, I contacted you through the in-game direct message system. I thought I wouldn’t see you.”
“Ah yes.”
“But seeing you in person… I think I did a good job by saying that we would definitely meet.”
smile!
As Jinseong drank his coffee, Seonghun smiled lightly.
He was a man with clear eyesight.
Clear facial features, calm hair styling, and casual emotional expression that makes you wonder if it’s a smiling face at first glance.
“I also have a question. That’s why I responded to the request to see the team leader.”
“That’s right. May I ask what you are curious about?”
And at the moment when Seonghun agrees with Jinseong’s words and puts his hands together toward him with an interesting look…
“How did you know my nickname and send me a note?”
Squeeze!
Jin-seong sucked up the iced Americano with a straw and at the same time asked Sung-hoon a question in a tone as if it was not a big deal.
In fact, it was a matter he was most curious about and a very important question that could change his attitude depending on the answer.
“aha. Come to think of it, I guess I didn’t explain enough.”
When Jinseong asked, Sunghoon nodded.
It was misleading enough.
The message sent to him by the head office was just a meeting offer with no particular content, and if it hadn’t been for Wiz Entertainment Korea, no one would have responded.
Moreover, considering that Wiz Entertainment contacted them without a purpose, there was a high probability that they would not readily respond when they heard the name.
In common sense, that was much more common.
In recent years, there have been sensitive issues such as channel suspension and account deletion slave contracts for MCN management, and in this content market, such abuse is still prevalent.
It was because Wiz Entertainment Korea could not be free from such issues.
“First of all, I apologize for the lack of explanation. It was because there was no way to contact them in the game… and even that was far away, so I had no choice but to use a note. It didn’t seem like Jinseong-nim was active on AOL or any other platform.”
“What… is that so?”
“Nevertheless, the reason Wiz Korea asked for a way to contact Jinseong was because we decided that he was a person we must see. Even if it means analyzing all of Brian’s log records. It was thanks to him that I was able to send a note.”
“If it’s Brian… you mean the guy who broadcasts on the Switch?”
“yes. You are also part of Wiz Enter.”
At Jinsung’s words, Sunghoon nodded.
It was a shameful expression that seemed to remind me of that time.
If Brian hadn’t been there and if it hadn’t been for the help of Wendy, who had been working with him.
There would never have been an opportunity for him to talk with Jinseong in front of him now.
“Have you ever seen this video?”
“A video?”
“yes.”
So, Jin-seong saw Sung-hoon holding out a tablet PC toward him, and he was able to recognize at a glance what the video he was talking about.
“This is…”
A boar-headed human who is PKing dozens of mage users on a sandy beach covered with golden sand.
It was his own appearance.
“Hot Clips of the Week, compiled weekly by AOL. Of course, there are differences in counting in each country, and since there are so many videos uploaded, you might have overlooked it… At the time, Brian and Wendy were caught by malicious users and couldn’t leave Whispering Island. A whopping 165,000 people were watching it.”
“ah?”
“So we, Wiz Korea, requested Brian, who uploaded this video, to send all the log records at the time. Jin-seong’s information was kept private, but if Jin-seong’s skills or actions had an impact, the nickname would remain on the record.”
Brian also wanted to find you very much,” said Sunghoon, clearing his throat.
It was because the explanation of the situation was long and did not go into the main topic.
“The reason I asked to meet Jinseong today is to express my gratitude to Brian and Wendy, and at the same time, I want to ask if you are willing to sign an exclusive contract with Wiz Korea. Of course, if Jinseong-nim is okay.”
Swoop!
And Seonghun smiled as he held out the papers on the table.
It was that sweet smile.
“Are you thinking of becoming a streamer?”
* * *
“Then take a look.”
“thank you.”
Jinseong got out of Seonghun’s car and said hello.
He was holding an envelope in his other hand.
Jin-seong, who had heard all about himself, was able to hear exactly what the contract Seong-hoon had proposed, the contents of the contract, and the special terms and conditions.
So, he was able to hear about the rights that Wiz Entertainment Korea has, support and rights as an exclusive streamer, and the form of streamer’s activities necessary to fulfill the contract.
It was a contract with no reason not to.
No matter how much I have been immersed in games for 10 years, I don’t know much about the world, but since I was in high school, I jumped into the scene of intense life and acted as the actual head of the family.
To him, the standard contracts of most management companies were unremarkable, and in that sense, the terms of the contract with Wiz Entertainment Korea were enough to tempt even the materialistic Jin-seong.
It must have been a very generous contract.
“It’s a bit annoying, but… If you don’t meet these conditions, you’re a madman.”
Jinseong rolled his tongue in his mouth, remembering the contents of the contract.
If you think about the average labor intensity of this tough South Korea, it was different from enough money.
Not to mention, even the self-deprecating words of neo-classism or Hellbando were no different from another gang in this era.
“hello? brother? Are you very busy?”
– why not?
And Jinseong started calling someone.
It was time to pay off the old debt.
