Chapter 168: Chapter 166!
After meeting with Jinyoung, Hyunwoo left the broadcasting company.
His face was full of excitement and thrill, and the students were full of envy and jealousy for Jinhon.
Looking at them, Hyunwoo said, “Don't be impatient, guys. Opportunity will come along to you. If you seize it, you will be a star like Jinhon, and if you don't, you will be forgotten, so work very hard. If you don't, you won't have the power to seize the opportunity.”
Jinhon scratched his head with an embarra.s.sed look.
Looking at him curiously Hynwoo asked, “Do you have anything to say?”
“Well, as for the music video…”
The moment Hyunwoo heard that he opened his eyes wide all of a sudden. He already knew what they wanted to discuss with him.
Jinhon continued, “Can you make another music video with these guys singing and dancing? They really love music and they are very close to me, too.”
Hyunwoo had a somber look on his face.
Of course, it was not that difficult to make one more music video, but he could not accept it because he could not be sure that this would not be their last request.
Besides, he was short-handed now. He had to focus on the animation production of Tuti and Angelica, and the first animation production of an updated Garbage World.
“I can't accept your request,” said Hyunwoo resolutely.
“Please!”
Hyunwoo let out a sigh. He could not help but accept it when they didn't bugged him like that.
He asked Jinhon in a calm voice, “How many are there in your school now?”
“About 70, all told.”
“What if the other students come to me for the same request like yours?”
“You can't give all of them such benefits, of course, but these are my closest friends.”
Hyunwoo shook his head and said, “I have to disagree. It's not fair if some get the benefits because they are close to somebody, and others don't because they are not.”
Jinhon thought Hyunwoo was very close to him, so he felt Hyunwoo would easily okay his request.
But Hyunwoo didn't want to discriminate against other students at the alternative school. Jinhon seemed disappointed.
However, it was Hyunwoo who was disappointed in Jinhon. Jinhon personally watched the difficult process of how his music video was created and came to light finally. How could Jinhon make such a request simply because they were his close friends?
“The reason I made a music video for you is not that you're close to me, but because of your music was worth it.”
“Well, I am not asking you a favor just because they're my close friends. Actually, they really sing and dance very well.”
“That's your standard, and it's not objective,” said Hyunwoo coldly.
Jinhon said he felt sorry for his friends, but they comforted him by patting him on the shoulder.
Looking at them, Hyunwoo felt sorry, too.
Suddenly, he hit upon a good idea.
“I think I have a good idea.”
“What is it? Please let us know.”
“Just prove that your musical talent is worth a music video.”
“Prove it?”
“For example, you can get recognition from your princ.i.p.al. I think you had better have a music contest. If you win, I can make a music video for you.”
They just scratched their heads at his suggestion.
“What's wrong with your expressions? Are you not confident? You guys told me you're the best in your school, right?”
“No, sir. We're confident!”
“Okay, then. Let me come to your school sooner or later. Oh, let me visit your school tomorrow and talk to your princ.i.p.al. Got it?”
“Yes, sir!”
As he promised, Hyunwoo went to the alternative school the next day to see the princ.i.p.al. Jinhun and Kyungsu accompanied him. Kyungsu seemed a bit disgruntled, though.
“Brother Kyungsu, what's the matter with you?”
Kyungsu just shook his head, but when Hyunwoo demanded, he reluctantly said,
“I'm afraid you're involved in too many things right now.”
Hyunwoo instantly figured out what his complaint was. In fact, other staff had similar complaints. They were worried about the growing expenses when there was no solid income source.
Kyungsu continued, “It's commendable that you make a music video for the students. But what I want is you to first establish the existing company on a firm footing.”
