“Is Jeonbong finally paying your rent? ”
After the settlement, the new hire next door asked him to be reluctant. This surrogate carefully examined Jong-gu and Kyung-soo. Then I got up with a signal to go out to the new guy.
“Would you like some coffee? ”
“Thank you.”
This surrogate and the new guy went up to the roof of the building with a can of coffee. Taking out a cigarette, this surrogate opens his mouth.
“Daewoo, if you're going to stay here for a long time, do so. ”
“Yes?”
“This is the style of maritime media. ”
This surrogate smiles as she looks back at the new recruit.
“I've only been here two years. And you know what I realized? ”
“I don't know. ”
“Writers were more helpless than I could have imagined. Nine out of ten writers won't complain if they don't get settled. Particularly unpopular writers. All I know is how to write in the first place. I hate waiting around for you when you're helpless and annoying. ”
“Even if he doesn't get what he deserves? ”
“Yes, even if you can't. ”
This surrogate repeatedly emphasized the suspicious new hire's words, and added.
“It's the company that makes the most of it. ”
“But isn't there a writer who sometimes really wants to sue? ”
“Like I said, it's about going behind the scenes of decent writers. It's only a few coins if you say it's not popular writers. Did you see the writer's commission just now? ”
“Yes, so I thought to myself, It's only a matter of time, but it's easier to just deposit money, even if you look at the company image or later. ”
This surrogate smiles at the air again.
“Daewoo knows one and not two. Do you know how many works I've done in the media so far? ”
“Yes? About · · · · · · · 1000 volumes? ”
The proxy snorted.
“More than 3500. More than 3500. How many of them are writers like you? ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
“The pennies come together and become necklaces, and we give our head of seamedia his boat back. ”
“I understand what you mean. ”
This surrogate quickly smoked a whole cigarette. Immediately, he took out the second cigarette and asked, saying:
“Most writers are poor. I can't just write and eat. There are many writers who sleep and write in parallel or at work all the time. ”
“Yes, the writer of the Ancient Rooms, who is my first time working in a PC room at night. ”
“One of the biggest problems of poor writers is that they can't afford it. So even if I realize I didn't get the right tax, I don't have the courage to file a lawsuit or go to a lawyer and talk to them. Queek.I just need to call the company and ask them to make a deposit. ”
“Hmm · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
“I'm begging you, please, for the money that you deserve. Isn't that funny? Because the cost of living every day is urgent, what's right and wrong becomes a problem later on. ”
This surrogate was nauseous instead of smoking again. Rubbing his wet eyes, he said.
“Funnier is what Chairman Ma Jong-gu says when he gets a call from such writers. Make your next move from our publisher, and I'll pay you the tax you owe me, just like this. ”
“Oh, my God! It's not like there's any money behind it. ”
“Oh, my God, is that a sound? I reacted like Mr. Daewoo at the beginning of my career. ”
This surrogate inhaled the remaining coffee at once and threw the can into the trash. Slowly turning back, he said.
“I don't get it, but I've always accepted it. I'm a salaried worker too. But I'm tired now. I decided not to understand anymore. ”
“What do you mean? ”
“I resigned. I only work until next week and quit. ”
“Mr. Lee · · · · · · · · · · · ·?! ”
“I postponed it a little to teach Daewoo. Let's have a drink soon. ”
“Yes, sir. ”
The new recruit grew restless and followed behind this surrogate.
I can't believe the first person to join the media and get acquainted with them quit next week. It was a pity.
“Are you going to rest for a while if you quit? ”
“You have to rent a studio room. You don't have time to rest. I already have a job. I passed the interview.”
“Oh, so you can call it a leave of absence. Where are you going? ”
“Rafbooks.”
“Rafbooks?! You mean where Writer Poongcheon Yoo is? ”
“Speak up, Daewoo. I'll tell you more later, but first, it's a secret at the company. ”
On the way down to the office, I saw cigarette butts concentrated in the corner of the landing.
There were traces of smokers who refused to go up to the roof, smoking and throwing them away.
As always, this surrogate bent down and picked up all the cigarette butts today. If you put it away like this, someone will feel something. He hoped that the world would get a little better, he also hoped that today.

“The Fusion Fantasy Genre has a bit of a female lead. ”
“Is that what you think, writers? ”
“Absolutely many readers are men. They don't sell bitter squash fantasies. ”
Three new writers said with Lee Dong-sung.
Bong nods with a dead face.
“Why don't you just use romance? ”
“I've been doing my debut and I've been doing romance all day, and it's not funny. especially now. I'm a fan of fantasy. ”
Right then.
The door of the room was opened and I saw the reconstruction I was writing by myself.
New writers looked bright and glamorous.
“Mr. Haejeon. You don't sell liquor, do you? ”
“Lady jewelry?”
“I mean, it's a fantasy, but it's a woman. The prefix is trying to figure out how to write your new book. ”
“It's hard to sell. ”
As I approached the coffee maker, the reconstruction said.
While nodding as if the writers thought so, the reconstruction adds.
“But it's more important to write what you like. If you use it funny, I think there's plenty of marketability. ”
The beginning was the same, but the conclusion was completely different.
Bong stared at the back of the reconstruction of the coffee.
Suddenly, a sunny smile was spreading from my mouth. In my mind, I had already made a refreshing decision about what to write.
Glug glug!
There was a vibration in my pocket.
Whether he took out his cell phone or not, he opened his eyes as soon as he looked up at the screen. It was an account withdrawal notification message.

Offshore Media
‘Ew, what's going on? ’
A sudden deposit text left Bong in a daze.
The e-book rate of the debut that I had not received was clear.
The debut was unpopular, so the amount of money that came in was short. But that's not what matters now.
Even though I've asked you several times, I don't know why the sea media suddenly deposited money because of the wind.
“I'm a writer. What's the matter? Is this a bad call? ”
“Oh, no. It's not like that. ”
Bong raises his head, blurring the end of the horse.
The eyes that began to blue were fixed to the reconstruction on the side of the kitchen.
While eating spinning sushi, I was reminded of what I was thinking.
‘No way Writer Ha? ’
At that time, the reconstruction only said, "Eat first," but it didn't say how to help. That's why Bong had forgotten without much expectation.
After thinking about it, Bong got up from his seat.
The moment I took my first step to ask him myself, the doorbell rang loudly.
“Huh? Who is it? ”
The nearest portico of Seonghyun stood up. Residents don't have to ring the doorbell because they all know the password.
“Who are you?”
“Excuse me, is this Mr. Haejeon's office? It's from seamedia.”
The voice that flowed through the intercom belonged to Bell Bell. Bong stood still. The reconstruction of the kitchen was also staring at me rather than drinking coffee.
“Haejeon, what do we do? ”
“· · · · · · Open it. ”
At the words of the rebuilding, Seonghyun opened the entrance to Burya Burya.
Jong-gu and Kyung-su stood side by side.
Both of them had all kinds of beverage boxes in their hands.
“Hehe, hello. It's called Horse Gear, which is the director of maritime media. ”
“I'm Representative Park Kyeong-soo. Is Mr. Haejeon in? ”
“Yes, stay · · · · · ·. ”
Seong-hyun replied tremblingly and let the two of them in.
As soon as I found the wand standing blank, I snatched the shiver smile from inside.
“Ha, ha, ha! How have you been? Oh, I didn't think you'd be in the writer's office. Why don't you give me a call? ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
Bon Yi almost burst into laughter.
I've been on the phone a lot lately because I'm having trouble collecting a ticket for my debut. It was nonsense.
“Oh my, there are so many writers here. By the way, Mr. Hae Jae, where are you? ”
The bell that was looking around quickly blurred the end. On the border between the living room and the kitchen, reconstruction stood expressionlessly.
“Greetings, Haejeon! ”
Bell bells bowed at a 90-degree angle and greeted with respect. In a row, Gyeongsu lowered her waist equally deeply.
“I've been wanting to see you so many times, but I can't reach you. I was wondering how you were doing. I came here without hesitation. Hahaha.”
Reconstruction was still expressionless in front of the laughter bell.
Bell Bell's words were true.
I've been contacted once or twice a month, but all the reconstructions have been silenced. It was because I had never met the media again.
“Is your problem solved? ”
The rebuilding started right away.
Bell bell immediately wiped the smile off his face and nodded in a tense tone.
“Yes, it's been fixed. Now it's either going to be sold or it's not going to be sold again by mistake. ”
“A mistake?”
“Yes, there are a lot of writers that we work with, so I'm having a little trouble collectively managing the work. Sometimes this kind of error can happen. ”
“Errors." ”
The reconstruction mutters, placing down the mug. His voice became as cool as cold coffee, lying on the floor of the office.
“It must be a mistake to get up. It's what people do. But if there are dozens of those mistakes every month, isn't that a problem? ”
“Ha Writer. That's... ”
“I know only maritime media in South Korea are responsible for this kind of mistake. Why does this keep happening in the media? Why is it that everyone's talking so badly about Hatemidi, even when you're looking all over the Internet writer community? ”
“Mmmm · · · · · · · ·! ”
Jong-gu had nothing but moaning to answer.
Like a barley sack, Kyungsoo stood next to each other.
“Representative Park Kyungsoo. ”
“Yes, yes! Come in, Mr. Ha. ”
“Did you say hello to me in the email you sent me last week? Now that I'm such a famous writer, I can't even give you a publication proposal as a small publisher like TaeMedia. ”
Kyungsoo couldn't resist, and the chords rang once. Suddenly, I couldn't figure out why I was talking about this.
Reconstruction was the word.
“That's not why I don't deal with maritime media. You know my personality. ”
“I'm sorry. I'm so sorry about everything, Mr. Haejeon. ”
Kyungsoo squeezes his head in sweat.
I was too busy raising my head. All the new writers were watching his back-packed hands tremble.
‘Don't be so loud · · · · · · ·? ’
Bong wondered if the bells in front of him were the same as the bells he knew. Contractually, she was a writer, but in fact, A was always a doorman. Like a criminal standing in front of a judge, he could not find any real sense of the city of reconstruction.
“I can make this public. ”
I spit it out like a rebuild.
“ · · · · · ·! ”
I immediately thought about it and raised my head.
“Tell Jules. Stop harassing the writers who are working hard. I'm sure you understand what that means. ”
“ · · · · · ·! ”
“Why aren't you answering? Director Park? ”
“Yi, I understand. Ha Writer.”
“Oh, I understand. Yes, I understand. ”
“I'd appreciate it if you'd go back now. My writers need to write now. ”
Jong-gu lifted his face carefully, stealing the sweat from his forehead.
“Hey, Writer Ha. That's why we're serving lunch today. ”
Jong-gu couldn't connect the words.
Suddenly, I poured the reconstructed coffee into one mouth and rinsed my mouth thoroughly.
Both eyes narrowed and puffed.
“Oh, no. Mr. Haejeon, I was very sorry to barge in today so suddenly. Oh, let's go back to what you said today. ”
“I hope you take good care of your health and write a lot of good writing, Joe. I'll be in touch. ”
Bell and Kyungsoo turned white and bored.
After leaving the office like the two of them ran away, the reconstruction swallowed the coffee that had been in their mouths beyond their necks.
“Thank you, Mr. Hae Hae Hae Hae Hae." ”
Bong gathered his hands together in front of him and thanked him for reconstruction. I was about to tear up my eyes with emotion.
“The writer was wrong, too. ”
“Yes, I'll keep that in mind. Moving forward, I will thoroughly review this agreement. ”
Reconstruction smiles faintly and takes over your outfit.
Today is the day of the meeting and escort of Connection.
It was time to make a final decision about ‘The Breeze’ gaming. Su-hee also accompanies, of course.
“I'll go first. I'll see you guys tomorrow. ”
There were only four writers left after the reconstruction left the office.
For a long time after he left, the writers were not aware of his movements, so they were looking only at the porch.
“What are you doing, writers? ”
The one who broke the silence and opened his mouth first was the rod.
“Ha, you said. Put it on and let's go have a nice lunch. ”
Only then did the writers nod and return to their seats.
Their ten fingers, full of new chairs, begin to leak across the keyboard.
- Someday I will!
We didn't talk to each other, but four writers were thinking exactly the same thing. I will do everything in my power to always be a worthy writer, without getting discouraged in front of foolish executions.
Meanwhile.
I never dreamed of rebuilding my Excel to head to Connection headquarters. Today, his remarks will be recorded in the genre novel publishing industry as legendary.
It was warm in winter.
