Godsent Top Star [EN]: Chapter 175

175. Listen to My Song! (1)

April 24, 2022

“It’s not bald, it’s my hair.”

“Oops. My bad.”

Jerry speaks fluent Korean, so I sometimes forget, but he’s an international student who lived abroad for a long time.

“Anyway, I know what you mean.”

This project was entirely the result of Yeon-woo’s efforts.

Of course, Salieri’s stat boosts helped.

The reason why the result was good enough to get additional stats was through composing work disguised as a lot of grinding.

Grinding.

Yeon-woo was very confident in this grinding.

Should I say he has a lot of perseverance?

‘If you meditate under a waterfall all day long, anyone might become like this…’

It’s not easy to withstand the tremendous force of a waterfall with just one immature body.

Sitting down and having your neck bent is only possible after quite a bit of training.

At first, you can’t even sit under the waterfall at all.

‘When I think about the water I drank back then, I’m still full.’

You have to fall dozens, hundreds of times without even being able to sit down.

Only then will you barely learn how to accept the waterfall with your body.

It was the same this time.

If it doesn’t work, keep going until it does!

Some people might think I’m crazy, but who cares?

In any case, the fruit obtained in that way was very sweet.

It was even sweeter because it was a result I obtained myself.

‘An emotional transference music version, huh.’

Yeon-woo recalled the status window that appeared with a clear notification sound.

[Listen to My Song!][A]

-Melts the composer’s intention into the music.

Those who listen to this music will be able to taste the world drawn by the composer a little deeper.

As much as that, the user may need to be careful in composing with intention?

The range of increase in the application of the composer’s intention increases as much as the listener’s favorability.

It was that status window that made me doubt my eyes as soon as I saw it.

…The name seems a bit unique…

Whatever the name, the effect of the stat was good.

There were no penalties either.

The part that the range of increase increases as much as the opponent’s favorability, instead of saying that the range of amplitude changes, is proof of that.

‘It means that it becomes a plus, but at least it doesn’t go to minus.’

The basic effect is applied the same, and the effect is amplified according to the favorability of the other person.

‘I’m worried about the part that I need to be careful…’

When you think about it, that’s right.

For example, if you make very gloomy and bizarre music and use intentional transference, it will have a negative impact.

“Then can I just pass it on as it is?”

“Yes. I finished mixing and post-production together, so you can send the file there. I worked hard because I thought you were busy, hyung [older brother/male friend]!”

Sparkling.

It’s like a little chihuahua with shining eyes is sitting there.

I was wondering why he was grinding himself next to me…

He was doing something commendable.

‘Well. If Jerry isn’t there, the completeness would be a bit sloppy, no matter how much I made it…’

As soon as I sent the completed file via email, I got a reply.

“Oh. It looks like they were waiting.”

Jerry turned the laptop screen to Yeon-woo.

It contained everything from a thank you for the quick work to impressions of the song sent.

“It seems like they like it a lot. Well. Who worked on it? Of course!”

Even Yeon-woo thought the reaction wasn’t bad.

He was positive even from the vaguely sketched stage, but after receiving the completed version, he seemed to be very impressed.

“It would be a problem if it wasn’t this much. Why did I put in so much effort?”

I put in a lot of effort.

It was very clear because the stat was created.

‘I’m already curious about how great the effect of music made with all my heart and soul will be?’

The lifespan earned by a sloppy instrumental piece and the lifespan earned by music made with proper effort.

Yeon-woo was very curious about how much difference there would be between the two.

“Wow. It’s very long.”

The other PD [Production Director] seemed to be typing very fast.

It hasn’t been 5 minutes, but in that short time, I can see that there are more than three A4 pages of impressions.

“Ah, this person is a little dangerous?”

“…What?”

“I think they’re threatening the position of the No. 1 believer with OST [Original Soundtrack] work.”

“…?”

It seems like I’m short on sleep.

“You seem sleepy. You didn’t sleep well, did you?”

“Uh, uh. No. I can hold on a little longer.”

“You’re out as soon as you say you can hold on. Go to sleep.”

“But it’s too harsh to not eat the delicious food you made for me, hyung.”

It’s certain.

He’s gone crazy because he can’t sleep.

“The food you eat after work is really delicious!”

Yeon-woo, who was skillfully putting sunny-side-up fried eggs on a plate, stopped.

“Really… what?”

“Really delicious!”

Jerry answered brightly.

However, he noticed Yeon-woo’s strange reaction and added while looking at him.

“Doesn’t it mean that the taste is as shocking as a nuclear explosion in your head?”

“I think it’s roughly similar…”

All right.

What does it matter if it’s like this or like that?

As long as the meaning is conveyed.

“I’m sure everyone will be very surprised when this is released. No one will think you made this, hyung.”

Then he suddenly sighed.

“Still, it was our secret, but I’m sad that it’s revealed… I’m also sad that people don’t know your abilities… I feel like I’ll never see you again.”

“…?”

Isn’t the expression ‘when will you ever come back’ a sound chanted when the pallbearers leave…?

In short, it’s a word used when someone dies.

“Going back and forth…?”

He glances at me.

“Hesitating?”

“Ah! Yes. That’s right. That’s what it meant. It meant that my mind was going back and forth!”

I think I need to get him a Korean teacher.

While Jerry went to sleep, the reality PD sent a message.

He was monitoring and seemed curious about what to celebrate.

‘It’s difficult to let them know in advance. There’s such a thing as commercial ethics…’

I heard that the first broadcast of the drama was scheduled for two weeks later.

The drama, which had a very low viewership rating from the first broadcast and was about to be canceled early, somehow dragged on and finally ended last week.

It seemed like they couldn’t end it easily because famous celebrities appeared in it, and they were trying to drag it on somehow, but they were trying to drag it on somehow, but it didn’t work out well.

I heard that there are already talks about noise-related issues here and there.

And because of the counter-effect, more attention was focused on the new drama to be aired.

The reason I knew this was simple.

It’s because I read what the drama PD wrote in detail in the email.

[The precious OST that you worked on and sent has greatly lightened the heavy burden placed on us. Even in the midst of being compared to the previous work from 1 to 100, the quality of the precious OST that you sent was admired by our director…]

In short, Yeon-woo’s burden has been reduced.

Even if this drama fails, it seems like the OST will remain.

He said he got comfort that it was better than the previous failed work.

[The first release date of the trailer is 4 days from now, and thanks to the quick work, the quality of the trailer has been further upgraded…]

‘First, I need to tell the company and schedule a meeting.’

The trailer is in 4 days and the main broadcast is in 2 weeks, so the timing is about right.

Now that the 2nd episode has aired.

The amount Yeon-woo is filming was in the 5th week.

Filming a reality show was also a significant advantage.

I can naturally reveal that Yeon-woo is a famous YouTuber without having to write an article on purpose.

‘I’m looking forward to the reaction?’

The broadcasting station will definitely welcome it with open arms.

They deliberately contacted a famous YouTuber for issue-making, but it turns out that he was a famous celebrity.

It looks like it will be a hot topic.

As expected.

“Oh my. Yeon-woo-ssi should have seen that scene.”

Lee Gyu-han, who had gone to the meeting, returned and told me about the PD’s reaction in detail.

When he made an appointment to have a meeting, the PD immediately said OK.

It was natural.

A mysterious YouTuber who hasn’t shown any proper reaction to any contact so far.

Not only did that YouTuber work with them, but they even set up a meeting.

It was a situation that was very easy to misunderstand.

“They were drinking kimchi soup properly [being overly optimistic]? They were so touched that they were going to liquidate their secretism for themselves… I just didn’t say it because it was hard to say no.”

It seemed like the PD was about to kneel there, so it was hard to say it was a misunderstanding.

“Then when I handed over my business card, his eyes got so big that it looked like something would pop out if I hit him in the back of the head. Oh, Yeon-woo-ssi should have seen that expression.”

After hearing the truth, he even stuttered.

-Who is it?

-It’s Kang Yeon-woo… He filmed a movie this time. It’s called ‘The Most Beautiful Days’. He recently appeared on a variety show…

-No, no! That’s not what I asked! Is that really Kang Yeon-woo? Really?!

Lee Gyu-han was worried because he asked several times if it was the Kang Yeon-woo he knew.

Maybe there’s another Kang Yeon-woo.

-Oh~! Of course, we are very grateful! But… until the first episode… it’s a bit… impossible, right? Ahaha! Of course! It’s okay~ We have to adjust~! The second main broadcast? Then around episode 3…? Oh my! That’s so good~!

“I don’t think that PD was such an affable person, but it seems like he was very harsh. His voice was so soft, like jade beads rolling around. It was a bit painful because a middle-aged man with a belly was doing that…”

He hasn’t even started broadcasting yet, but he’s so anxious about what’s going on that he’s even shaking his legs.

-Even if the first episode is a bit bland, people will come in for the rebroadcast if this issue breaks out. It’s a bit disappointing for the first week… Oh, no. It’s not that I don’t like it~! Ahaha, don’t misunderstand, manager! Anyway, the second week isn’t bad either. It’s the beginning!

“He emphasized that early issue-making is very effective.”

“That’s right. That’s why I matched the reality show and the broadcast date on purpose.”

When he said that, Lee Gyu-han stared at Yeon-woo with a look of deep emotion.

“…Why are you looking at me like that?”

“No. It seems like Yeon-woo-ssi has shed all the rookie image now. Is this the reward for raising a rookie…? I think I know why Seong-hyun was so eager to keep Yeon-woo by his side.”

Lee Gyu-han added so vaguely.

“…”

Of course, Yeon-woo didn’t understand.

“Ahem! Anyway, that person was very burdened while biting his nails. His previous work failed, so if he fails, he’ll hear that he failed in a row, and the broadcasting station’s face won’t be good, but it’s natural…”

“Did you accept the confidentiality clause?”

“They said they would take the lead in keeping their mouths shut. The more people who know about this, the less effective it is, so they will try to keep their mouths shut as much as possible. But what are you going to do with the reality show?”

“I’m going to tell them later. If there are too many sailors, the boat will go up the mountain [too many people can ruin a plan].”

“Well. They’re not desperate, so they might try to use it as a source to get viewership ratings…”

Lee Gyu-han nodded.

“Then the setting is roughly finished. They’ll probably be very surprised when they find out that that YouTuber is Yeon-woo-ssi. Seong-hyun is planning to recruit a lot of music engineers this time, so it would be good for Yeon-woo-ssi to be the first hitter on the singer side.”
