I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 413
Episode 413 Damang (2)
A chubby reporter who is reminded of Kang Woo-jin when he sees the famous Hollywood producer Joseph Felton. It was most likely. Other than that, there are currently no actors in Korea who would be called ‘world stars.’
“Two of Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’ film companies have already become involved with Kang Woo-jin. That alone is unprecedented – could it be that three places, including ‘Universal Movies’, are flocking to Kang Woo-jin?”
Of course, it may not be true. Joseph Felton may have come to Korea for other reasons than to visit Kang Woo-jin. According to common sense, it was more natural.
‘But the timing is amazing.’
Woojin turned the world upside down by being cast as the male lead in two major Hollywood movies. Even though it has been about a week since Kang Woo-jin returned to Korea, it is still as hot as a furnace. Then Joseph Felton appeared in Korea. By coincidence, the legs fit perfectly, right? The chubby reporter instinctively sensed that this was a story that would sell well. It’s almost as if you’ve already seen the girl group that appeared at the arrival hall.
-Sigh.
He looked around at the chaos caused by the appearance of the girl group. Dozens of reporters and onlookers seemed completely oblivious to the foreigners they had just passed by. The chubby reporter picked up his camera and checked the photos of Joseph Felton.
“…Whether they came because of Kang Woo-jin or not, we have to throw this out and see.”
A smile quickly spread across his lips. Kang Woo-jin Has there ever been an actor with such a high influence throughout the history of the Korean entertainment industry? Once you publish an article, it sells like hotcakes. Even if Joseph Felton didn’t come because of Kang Woo-jin, aggro would be attracted enough, and if their real goal was Woo-jin.
“It’s a scoop.”
Soon the reporter left the noisy arrival hall and walked slowly.
-Sure.
The photos taken were sent somewhere. And then he tapped his cell phone passionately. The phone call that followed.
“Yes, it is me. Have you seen the picture? They’re not just foreigners, they’re powerful kids from Hollywood. No, listen first. I heard the script is good?”
Woojin Kang and Joseph Felton of ‘Universal Movies’ appeared on his phone. After finishing the call, which lasted roughly 10 minutes, he put down his cell phone. And then I laughed while looking at the advertisement that appeared on the large monitor in the airport lobby. The main character of the advertisement was Kang Woo-jin.
“But if it really has ‘Universal Movies’… isn’t it at a level that even the top Hollywood companies can’t compete with?”
Meanwhile, inside a van driving on the highway.
Two vans moving fast. Among them, there were many foreigners in the front car. What caught my eye the most was a tall man wearing a leather jacket sitting by the window. It was Joseph Felton, a famous Hollywood producer.
“……”
Joseph rested his chin, looked out the window, and muttered softly in English.
“Korea – it’s been a long time. “This is my first time since filming ‘Leech’ last year.”
The bald-headed man sitting next to him reacted quickly.
“……I am concerned about the reporters who were crowded into the arrivals hall earlier. “They barely knew us, but they might have taken a picture.”
“It could be so, what can I do? “You didn’t know that our movements would overlap with a popular Korean group.”
“There may be a reporter who recognizes me.”
Joseph, who was smiling and crossing his long legs, shrugged his shoulders.
“Haha, is there a reporter who recognized my face and even guessed Kang Woo-jin? But it doesn’t matter. Even if it is known, it won’t be a big problem. No, it would be accurate to say that I don’t have time to worry about such things.”
Bald-headed Robert looked at the face of the giant Joseph and let out a small sigh.
“Coming all the way to Korea just to deliver the scenario to Kang Woo-jin – wasn’t that a bit excessive? Of course, reasons such as rationing were cited externally.”
“late.”
“yes?”
“It’s too late. I was the first to spot Kang Woo-jin, but I ended up in last place. “It’s the first time I’ve felt so unfair while doing this job.”
Joseph Felton shook his head and recalled the first time he saw Woojin Kang. The first time he saw Woojin was quite a while ago. Around the screen test for ‘Last Kill 3’ early last year.
“As soon as I saw his extraordinary energy, I thought he would immediately make a mark in Hollywood… but I had no idea that his value would rise dozens of times so quickly. He was unknown until last year – but now he is already a superstar in Hollywood. “There are promises made in advance, but in business relationships, promises are like dust.”
“……”
“Wouldn’t Kang Woo-jin be interested if I showed this level of sincerity myself? ‘Clero: Birth of a Villain’ and ‘Beast and Beauty’ are already confirmed. They might not care about us. “It’s us who are disappointed.”
Joseph Felton, who has been in Hollywood for decades. For Joseph, Kang Woo-jin’s crazy growth was something he had never seen before. In the blink of an eye, he became a world-famous star. It felt unfair to him. Even though I was the first to discover the angular gem, it was someone else who processed it and sold it to the world.
But what can you do? This is what happened.
It is not strange to raise a white flag, but Joseph Felton, who had been watching Kang Woo-jin all this time and had his monstrous side stuck in his head, did not give up on Woo-jin. Clearly, I couldn’t give up. When I first saw it, I wanted to experience the wonder of ‘Leech’ and ‘Beneficial Evil’ again.
‘What if I get third place? It doesn’t matter as long as I stop catching it.’
Above all, he had another purpose.
‘We have to catch Kang Woo-jin in order to appoint Danny Landis as manager.’
It was Danny Landis, a big-time Hollywood director who conditionally accepted the directorship. He made it a condition for Woojin to join. It was Joseph Felton who had no choice but to risk his life for Kang Woo-jin for one reason or another.
“…When is your appointment with Kang Woo-jin?”
Bald-headed Robert answered right away.
“two days later.”
“Did you say that filming for Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’ has begun right now?”
“yes.”
“Huh-”
Joseph took a long breath and placed the wad of paper on his lap. No, I looked down at the scenario and muttered softly.
“What will this look like to Kang Woo-jin?”
A little after noon on the same day.
The location is a large set complex in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do. It was a pretty familiar place. Because it was a set of ‘beneficial evil’. Of course, the set in the spacious warehouse looked completely different from Part 1. Construction related to Part 2 filming has already been completed. In the parking lot outside of such a set complex.
-Sigh.
A black van stopped and a black-haired man got out. It was Kang Woo-jin with a dark-looking face.
“……”
He was calm as he looked at the set complex, but he was quite emotional on the inside.
‘K-It’s been a while here.’
How can I say it, it feels like I’m back home? It was even more so because I returned from traveling abroad so much. Anyway, next to Woojin, who adjusted his hat.
“It seemed like I used a lot of force.”
Pigtail Choi Seong-geon was added.
“The success of Part 1 went beyond crazy levels and created a worldwide syndrome. “Part 2 set construction also cost twice as much as planned.”
The CEO of Netflix’s headquarters in the United States even went so far as to praise ‘beneficial evil’. It is natural for the flow of funds to be concentrated on ‘beneficial evil’. I was also looking forward to Kang Woo-jin.
‘Oh-you mean so?’
The set has been transformed and filming for Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’ begins today. Well, if you look at the schedule, it will be several times more hell since filming for ‘Beneficial Evil’ has been added.
‘It’s okay, I’m fine. Still, I think I should go to subspace at least once before I start.’
Kang Woo-jin’s condition was excellent. In this way, Woojin entered the ‘Beneficial Evil’ set complex with Choi Seong-gun’s team members. As soon as several assistant directors and staff members waiting at the entrance spotted Kang Woo-jin.
“Kang Woo-jin has arrived!”
After hitting the radio, he joined Woojin. After a few minutes, a bearded man came running towards me. Producer Song Man-woo was recently making his name known around the world, and there were some familiar faces around him. Writer Choi Nana and general director Kim So-hyang, who have recently gained confidence, as well as many others. The entrance to the set complex quickly became crowded, and Kang Woo-jin was full of anticipation.
‘Uh-huh, what are you doing? I was a little scared.’
I instinctively became more cynical. The funny thing is.
“Mr. Woojin!”
Producer Song Man-woo, who was breathing a little harshly due to running, asked a strange question.
“You decided to do additional work with ‘Universal Movies’??!”
“……”
Eh? suddenly? Kang Woo-jin was a little embarrassed by the question that came before the greeting. All of the gathered people, including writer Choi Na-na and Kim So-hyang, look at Woo-jin with the same expression as producer Song Man-woo. It means 100% of the same mind. Why is ‘Universal Movies’ coming out of nowhere? Kang Woo-jin, who had been silent, glanced at Choi Seong-gun. He shook his head slightly.
About this way.
“No, an article appeared.”
Producer Song Man-woo showed his cell phone. As if he had been watching it just before, an article was being printed on his cell phone.
『[Exclusive] Joseph Felton, a famous Hollywood producer who appeared at Incheon Airport. The reason he came to Korea while working with ‘Universal Movies’… To meet Woojin Kang?』
In the photo embedded in the article, the giant Joseph Felton and his team were proudly displayed. At that moment, Kang Woo-jin thought to himself.
‘Oh, this guy got caught.’
Because there was already something discussed with Joseph regarding the meeting. But why did you come in so confidently? Although there was no mention of it being top secret, Woojin thought the meeting with him was a secret. Soon, General Director Kim So-hyang, who was next to Producer Song Man-woo, spoke in a slightly excited voice.
“I know Joseph Felton, I’ve seen him a few times in the past. You also came to our Bangkok location, right? But the fact that you came to Korea at this time has something to do with Woojin?”
Producer Song Man-woo helped.
“It won’t necessarily be possible to come and watch the filming of Part 2 again. “What are you really talking about with ‘Universal Movies’?”
A situation full of curiosity. It was natural. As if the two ‘Big Five’ of Hollywood were not enough, a third ‘Universal Movies’ also appeared. Kang Woo-jin, who was silent for a moment, answered casually. The tone was quite low.
“Nothing was discussed with ‘Universal Movies.’”
“Ah really?”
And it didn’t seem like he had any intention of hiding it.
“But you will meet Joseph Felton.”
Soon, the eyes of everyone in attendance, including PD Song Man-woo, widened.
“!!!”
Kang Woo-jin’s actions so far have already become legendary, but that doesn’t mean it’s the end. Producer Song Man-woo, who looked a little lost, then recited.
“At this level…the kids in Hollywood will fall into a sense of self-destruction.”
Afterwards.
By the time Kang Woo-jin had managed to start filming Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’, the domestic media was frantically rushing to see the suddenly thrown rice cake.
『Columbia Studios’, ‘World Disney Pictures’ and ‘Universal Movies’? Did the famous Hollywood producer really come to see Kang Woo-jin?』
『[Issue Pick] The famous Hollywood producer who appeared at Incheon Airport is working on a project for ‘Universal Movies’』
『Kang Woo-jin planning to cover all of Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’ film companies? Contact with ‘Universal Movies’』
『Kang Woo-jin joins the cast of ‘Universal Movies’ Kang Woo-jin’s side remains silent on the news that was thrown out of the blue』
The articles being spread are facts and nonsense, and there was a strong feeling of grinding and watching. Speculation and abuse are rampant. There were already numerous issues related to Kang Woo-jin, so the firepower spread quickly.
-Eh????? What the heck is this again? It’s so out of the blue. –
Is it even possible that Universal will stick with Kang Woo-jin? It’s like the reporter got excited after taking a picture of a random foreigner hahahaha
– The black Hollywood producer in the photo was investigated in another article
– He must have come to Korea for some other purpose… If they’re going to catch Kang Woo-jin at Universal… The real Kang Woo-jin is a god. ….
-I think it’s true that I came to catch Kang Woo-jin haha. It’s
really bad. -Isn’t Kang Woo-jin really trampling on Hollywood at this level??
Even exactly two hours later.
『CNM/Joseph Felton quietly enters Korea! Korean media “Universal Movies is also interested in Kang Woo-jin?”
The fire spread to foreign media as well.
Two days later, Thursday, March 24th. bw enter.
It was a medium-sized conference room at BW Entertainment that had been expanded. The time is around 8 am. Several people were seen at the U-shaped desk in the fairly large conference room. Foreigners by the window. At the center was the giant Joseph Felton. On the other side are BW Entertainment employees other than Choi Seong-gun.
and.
“……”
Even Kang Woo-jin looks at Joseph indifferently. Joseph, with a smile on his face, seemed to have already exchanged greetings, looked at Woojin and continued speaking.
“I’m sorry. It seems our entry has caused a stir in Korea.”
Kang Woo-jin answered casually in English.
“are you okay. “It happened often.”
“Haha, is that so?”
“Is Hollywood okay? “It seems like it has spread there.”
“The calls are noisy, but it’s not a problem.”
Joseph gave a leisurely answer to a question.
-Sigh.
He pushed the wad of paper in front of him towards Kang Woo-jin.
“This is the scenario I’ve been talking about with Woojin for a long time.”
Woojin picked up the scenario while maintaining a poker face.
‘It took so long. is not it? Ordinary? I don’t know, but first start from subspace.’
I secretly tried to stab the black square next to the scenario. But before that.
“Mr. Woojin.”
Joseph Felton across from me spoke faster.
“You know coach Danny Landis, right?”
Danny what? Who was it? Then Woojin remembered the director he saw at the Cannes Film Festival.
“of course.”
“Director Danny is one of the greats in Hollywood. He’s greedy for you. He’s put conditions on it. If Woojin does this work, he wants to direct it unconditionally. This will probably be the first time for Danny as a director.”
Choi Seong-geon, who only vaguely understood this, was inwardly shocked.
‘H-that coach Danny Landis??’
On the other hand, Kang Woo-jin was very calm.
“Is that so?”
Joseph Felton then spoke again.
“In addition, we will not require Woojin to undergo any audition or screen test.”
It was a winning decision.
“If Kang Woo-jin decides, he will be confirmed as the male lead.”
