I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 197
Only Krnovel
Kang Woo-jin was in the van.
The location is on the crazy Hollywood road. The van Woojin rode in was large, but the number of people in it was unexpectedly small. Woojin Kang and Sunggun Choi, hired drivers, and two bw entertainment employees, including interpreters.
Everything else is waiting at the inn.
Meanwhile, Kang Woo-jin, looking out the window, was wearing a top and bottom suit. No tie, but shoes.
“·······”
A face with a desperate poker face.
‘Whoa – there are a lot of people. Is it also Hollywood? It’s the first time I’ve seen a crowd like that.’
However, on the inside, I couldn’t help but be surprised to see the foreigners flocking to me like a swarm of ants. Where are all these terrifying people of all races heading? The densely built-up buildings on both sides were also strange.
No, everything you see is new.
Bus stops, crosswalks, etc. Obviously, all of them are also in Korea, but the feeling was different. Do you feel like you are in a movie?
At this time.
“Woojin.”
Choi Seong-gun, who had been writing something in his diary while sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head.
“According to the navigation system, it will arrive in 10 minutes, but it will take longer because the road is very clogged. See that sign? The one with ‘Winner Movie Pictures’ stamped on it.”
Kang Woo-jin followed Choi Seong-gun’s index finger and checked the sign on the roof of the building in the distance.
“Yes, I see.”
“Hey there. Uh-huh- it would be a hundred times faster to run.”
Certainly, as long as you can see the signboard, you are almost there. Still, the road is blocked, so it will take a few more minutes. Therefore, Woojin.
“hmm-”
I slowly crossed my legs and lifted the side script on my lap. Of course, right next to it was a whirlwind of black squares. It was provided by ‘Winner Movie Pictures’.
‘One more before the start?’
Kang Woo-jin, perhaps thinking of preparing for the upcoming screen test, took the initiative.
-Hook.
I poked the black square with my index finger. In an instant, his background was replaced by an infinitely dark sub-space from a congested road.
Entering the familiar sub-space, Woojin stretches.
“Ah-!!”
I also solved the concept that filled my face. Woojin, who felt very comfortable, walked to the place where many white squares floated. I focused my attention on the last thing I saw.
-[10/side script (title: unknown), grade F (unable to judge)]
-[* Completeness is very low. Corrupted script or screenplay. 100% reading is impossible. (Approximately 30% can be realized)]
A phrase I haven’t seen in quite a while. It was the side script that Kang Woo-jin first read (experienced) in sub-space. Next, Kang Woo-jin chose a white square with a side script. The visible letters change quickly.
Only two roles appear.
Well, I’ve already done reading (experience), but due to the nature of subspace, the more I repeat, the better.
There.
“It makes me feel like my body is getting lighter.”
It was Woojin who felt his body become flexible. The exact reason is unknown, but speculation is possible. It’s probably because the “martial arts” you’ve learned grow. Of course, it was obvious that it was the ability of the subspace.
anyway.
-Sue.
Kang Woo-jin chose the role in the side script. Soon, a robot-like female voice spread throughout the subspace.
[“······Ready. Corrupted script or screenplay. Implementation is about 30%. Start reading.”]
Soon, something attacked Woojin. It wasn’t long before the shape began to appear in his field of vision again. It is not a space. The temperature was ambiguous. No, should I say no? Kang Woo-jin was clearly in a certain space, but it was difficult to explain.
Mostly because everything was blurry.
Woo-jin is standing there. Unusually, the clothes he wore were clear. suit. Around him, mirrors the size of a human body were scattered all over the place. Because it’s blurry, I can’t tell what’s reflected in the mirror. The bottom is brown. The ceiling is black. It is difficult to estimate the extent.
and.
-Sue.
Suddenly, someone appeared between the mirrors. Is he the same height as Woojin Kang? Likewise, it’s a suit, but everything on her face is gray except for the silhouette. As if there were no leaves in her eyes, nose, etc. in the first place. As soon as he saw her figure, several things became clear to Kang Woo-jin, who stood in the space.
More precisely, emotions are beaten.
know the start. live in the middle end is removed.
Those three things made Kang Woo-jin, who had stopped, move. I didn’t feel any other side effects.
only one.
eliminate.
Right now, Kang Woo-jin’s mind was filled with only purpose.
thus.
-Sue.
Kang Woo-jin’s feet moved while wearing shoes, and his eyes were filled with a subtle intent to kill. gradually thickens
Be alert. stand tall Feel the breath. Notice the tiny muscle twists. break your neck The opponent is not easy. So it will be a moment.
Be determined.
this moment.
-Pak!
Kang Woo-jin, who got closer to his opponent, aimed at the neck with his right hand, and the gray-faced figure blocked his hand and raised his knee on the empty side of Woo-jin. From here to the strange space
-Pak! puck! widely!
Only a short blow sounded.
A white building owned by ‘Winner Movie Pictures’.
A building consisting entirely of interior sets and studios. Among them, the 4th floor, where the screen test of ‘Last Kill 3’ will be held soon, was almost ready.
The floor of the large space was covered with mats, and the windows were covered to half-block the strong light coming from outside. Cameras mounted on tripods were set up in the east, west, south, and north of the studio, and model partitions were installed here and there starting from the middle. Replaced the mirror that appeared in the scenario.
A long table was placed in front of the entrance of the studio, and several monitors were placed on top of it. There are also two cameras set up on this side.
Looking at the chin, the scale was considerable.
More than 5 cameras were put in, and more than 30 foreign staff were busy moving throughout the studio. What about the elaborate props? Indeed, the feeling was completely different from a normal audition.
Whatever it was, dozens of foreign staff members of both sexes and races were mixed.
“Honestly, I didn’t expect to install a mirror.”
“It’s a screen test. I’m glad I didn’t set up a real mirror.”
“Ha ha ha is that so? But aren’t there more cameras than last time?”
“It will be because it is a test with action.”
Each of them chatted and finished the setting.
“I heard that a Korean actor was added among the actors participating today?”
“I heard that. It’s sudden, but because director George Mendes has a very strange corner.”
“It’s a bit sudden, though. In the original scenario, it was written as a Chinese character. A Korean actor I didn’t even talk about.”
“I am friendly with Korea. I went to Seoul last year. But I don’t have the impression that Korean actors are good at martial arts. It’s hard to see in Hollywood and there’s no data.”
“Well, I often see Chinese actors, but Korean actors are rare. Is it an assortment match?”
“maybe? I think the main ones will be the Chinese actors who originally planned to come. Korean learning as an experiment?”
In the midst of the staff walking around the studio, the glass door opened and foreigners entered again. About fifteen people. However, this group looks quite old. The leader among them is a man who resembles Santa.
In other words, it was Director George Mendes who was in charge of this screen test.
The people around director George are roughly film company executives or the kissing staff of the filming team. It was followed by Meghan Stone, a familiar female caddy (casting director), her team, and a team of producers coordinating the entire production of the film. Compared to Korea, these two teams had a lot of influence in Hollywood.
In particular, the producer team’s influence is at the level of a typhoon.
In the first place, Hollywood’s system itself is completely different from Korea’s, and the scale of investment is also beyond imagination. That is why the power of the producer team, which is in charge of the overall production, including film companies, investment companies, directors, and actors, is inevitably strong. In addition, a producer team in Hollywood has participated in several works.
The producer team of ‘Last Kill 3’ is also working on several works at the same time.
Soon, the brown-haired Meghan Stone, the leader of the caddy team, crosses her arms while looking at the studio setting. Then, I spoke to the leader of the producer team standing next to me.
“Isn’t it a bit modest?”
Then, the leader of the producer team picks up a laugh. He was a tall black man over 190 cm tall. His name is Joseph Felton.
“You mean prepare 48 mirrors for one screen test? It’s a waste, that’s it.”
“Still, I shouldn’t have installed it just around the characters.”
“If you save money on preparation, the quality of the shoot will be higher. More than that, a Korean actor who suddenly got involved. Megan I heard you recommended it? What else are you thinking about?”
“well. I just contacted the actor George was impressed with.”
“······The director was interested in Korean actors? Are you good at it? Or is it for marketing?”
“You will know when you see it for yourself. take care of your business Aren’t there a lot of other works besides ‘Last Kill 3’?”
Tall Joseph shrugged.
“calm down. I just became interested in Korean actors these days. Of course, you can’t ignore the money coming from China, but these days, actors feel that the quality is better in Korea. Looking at the growing Hallyu, Korean culture cannot be ignored either.”
“The flow is like that.”
“This time Miley Cara also went to Korea to promote her new work, right? There is a growing need for the Korean Wave among the public. So, is the Korean actor who sang this time famous? Do you have a career in Hollywood?”
As if it was a bit annoying, Meghan with bobbed hair received a transparent file from the staff and handed it to her.
“I am famous, but my career is short, and my filmography is unique. See for yourself, Joseph.”
The fed-up black man Joseph opened the file he received. In an instant, his eyes widen. Because the content was very fresh.
“······1 year? Did you debut this year? what are you a rookie? Did you call this actor?”
It was then.
“Standby!!”
A male staff member shouted to the entire studio. Then, dozens of people who were finishing it rushed out of the studio. As a result, the number of staff who had been dozens was reduced by half, and their seats were behind the long desk in front of them.
-Sue.
Next, the key staff who came with director George Mendes, who came out, stood around the camera set in the studio, and George and some others sat at the long desks arranged. As he sits down, it seems that Santa Claus has appeared.
George, the director.
“Um- then let’s begin.”
Looking back at the molined staff, he muttered in English.
“Stunt coordinator team, let’s start by checking the set.”
Soon, several monitors placed in front of him turned on and started outputting all over the studio.
Meanwhile.
When Kang Woo-jin first arrived at this four-story building, he didn’t shake or shudder.
‘Oh- is this a screen tester or something? Ordinary?’
Because there was nothing special about it. However, that was a mistake. Kang Woo-jin opens his mouth wide as soon as he enters the first floor and sees the inside of the building. I didn’t know that this whole building was a set and a studio. Even since all of the staff coming in and out were foreigners, Woojin’s heart slowly began to beat.
After all, the scene was heavenly and earthly different.
Thanks to this, by the time Kang Woo-jin climbed into the elevator, a moderate sense of tension prevailed. It wasn’t about the strain of a screen test. It was the trembling of the first experience. An unfamiliar country, staff with different languages, a scene where the scale is different from the sky, an unfamiliar tense atmosphere, and so on.
But even though I’ve come this far, I can’t seem foolish.
‘Ah-san, you’re afraid of mind control. I don’t know, this is Gangnam. Oh Gangnam.’
Woojin in the elevator calmed his pounding heart while taking a deep breath without revealing it, and raised the cynical to the extreme. Then, a colder-than-usual coolness spread throughout her body.
Okay, concept work done.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin arrived at the waiting room he was guided to. It was fine until here. The problem was the other actors in the waiting room. 3 people in total. All of them wore the same suits as Kang Woo-jin.
‘Eh? Something- I don’t think I’m Japanese. Is it the Chinese side?’
Same Asia, but not Japan. Somehow, strangely Chinese faces. It was certain that the Korean actor Kang Woo-jin was alone anyway, so Woo-jin confirmed that the actors who arrived first were Chinese.
‘Are you famous? I don’t know right away But the facial expressions are so bloody.’
The faces of Chinese actors are frozen. They seem to know each other well, but all three actors look at Korean actor Kang Woo-jin, who just opened the door. No, it’s more like staring. Behind them, the actors and staff gossip among themselves.
at that time.
“I’ll start with Mr. Wang.”
At the cry of the foreign male staff, one of the Chinese actors leaves the waiting room.
In Kang Woo-jin’s mind.
‘Sup- look at these.’
Something was irritating. It felt just like that. I came out as a representative in the national competition. Well, speaking as a national representative, the game isn’t that big, but losing is a bit annoying, right? Soon, Kang Woo-jin sat down in a nearby seat while making his expression more firm.
together.
‘I don’t know, I’ll try everything first.’
The result will come later, and now I am full of thoughts of beating those Chinese actors. The desire to win or the desire to win. War or battle alone. It doesn’t matter what the word is. It was not a desire to join the work. It is purely an instinctive desire. Well, only Choi Seong-gun and Kang Woo-jin know about this situation.
‘If I lose, I won’t be able to stretch out and sleep in Korea.’
Woojin was determined to stand out in this scene.
