Chapter Index

    Whether Bang Deok-su panicked or not, the situation became more and more serious. This was because while Crocodile Studio’s position was not released, public opinion was rapidly leaning towards Jang Seok-gi.

    As expected, Jang Seok-gi opened up all the messenger conversations and contracts he had with Crocodile Studio through the community. Since 80-90% of the situation can be guessed just from the facts revealed by one side, people have begun to say without hesitation who was at fault.

    The image that Jang Seok-ki had built up as a martial arts athlete was also helpful. During his career as an athlete, most of his images exposed to the outside world were of him sweating and training. Therefore, the prevailing opinion among fans was that he was a pure person who quietly worked hard rather than hoping for a fluke. Because of this, although there were sometimes people who pointed out that they had not read the contract properly, the answer to the question of who was on the wrong side was fixed.

    As things became noisy, other YouTubers and streamers began to speak out one by one. Some people were always interested in these issues, and some learned the truth through videos sponsored and sent by viewers.

    “Oh, everyone, do you know that? Has anything happened related to MCN this time? Wow, I get really scared every time I see something like that. There really is no one in the world I can trust.”

    “Thank you for donating 10,000 won to the elderly magnet steel expert~ Uh, isn’t this the martial arts athlete? Wow, the charisma in your eyes is crazy?”

    “Still, there are many YouTubers who suddenly become popular and don’t know anything about the world. If a company like that decides to do something, there will be a lot of people who will suffer the same thing, right? Fortunately, Jang Seok-gi is not a person with weak spirit, so he attacked him like that.”

    “Our company? Hey, our company isn’t like that! Rather, they are grateful people who bring advertisements to boring streamers like me.”

    Even some YouTubers who have a bad reputation among their fans due to their bad behavior shook their heads about this incident.

    “Ah, brothers! Compare who you want to compare with!! Even if I’m just living my life, I’m still living my own life. I don’t do that by stabbing other people in the back~ Yeah?! If you keep doing that, I’ll be upset!”

    “What? Oh, that bastard? Hehehe… No, I recognized it from the time you showed off your muscles that didn’t look like anything! If we fight, I’m confident I can cut it for 5 seconds. what? Anchovy baby? Did you actually see me?! It looks thin because it’s a screen! These are all pressure muscles!”

    So naturally, a chain reaction occurred where more people became aware of it and the issue grew bigger. A bonfire that required additional firewood quickly developed into a forest fire.

    Bang Deok-su realized that it was not just his feet that were on fire, but his entire body was already burning.

    “We also announce our position!! And hire a lawyer to consider legal action!”

    “That… How should I announce my position?”

    “Of course we should say that it was not our fault and that it was a normal contract!! We tied up that bastard Jang Seok-gi and threatened him into signing autographs. What did we do?! I warn you that I may sue anyone who opens their mouths about this incident!!”

    Jang Seok-gi’s warning played in Bang Deok-su’s mind as he said that. He said that if he wanted, he would respond legally or in the same way he did in the ring.

    For a moment, Deoksu Bang felt a chill and his skin growing. Then he cleared his throat and continued.

    “Hmm… What I am saying is that you should trim it well so that it is not too sharp.”

    “Yes, yes… !”

    Bang Deok-su, who had scolded his subordinate for no reason, rubbed his face with his hand.

    ‘Damn, this is all because the previous plan failed. From then on, things started to go wrong… Even if only Lee Min-ho had been cast at that time, we would have been able to cover it somehow with editing… ‘

    Having earned a lot of money by successfully producing Top Beast Survival, he became a little more greedy. Another new program was planned.

    But that was the problem. Having tasted the sweet taste of money after a single success, he poured hundreds of millions of dollars into planning a reality military entertainment program, and it seemed to be filmed quite successfully.

    The problem occurred after the program had been edited and broadcast. Due to the past controversies and excessive harshness of the contestants, too many reports were received on YouTube. As a result, there was a huge loss in image as well as number of views.

    The production costs were covered to some extent through various sponsorships, but that was only part of it. In the end, Deoksu Bang was able to establish the MCN he had aimed for, but he had no choice but to start on a smaller scale than expected.

    Bang Deok-soo declined his offer and whetted his appetite, remembering Minho, who appeared on a travel program that aired at the same time. I thought that with Minho’s physical strength and various talents, he would have been able to bury the controversy.

    “If that were the case, something like this wouldn’t have happened by signing a contract with someone like Jang Seok-ki… ”

    No matter how much conflict arises, Bang Deok-soo doesn’t mind making disparaging comments about his creators. His subordinates approached him.

    “I… Representative.”

    “What’s going on? Have you announced your position? Or have you already found a lawyer?”

    “No. That’s not it… It looks like there’s a problem with your YouTube account. I can’t post a statement on the channel community.”

    “What?!”

    Deoksu Bang jumped up from his seat at the sudden words and ran to the employee’s computer. I tried to post the prepared statement myself, but it was not posted, saying an unknown error had occurred.

    The same was true for Bang Deok-soo’s personal channel, not Crocodile Studio.

    “Why is this like this? Have you completely lost interest in YouTube? Why now… ! Hey, then let’s upload it as a video. Bring the script. I uploaded it with just my voice on a black background.”

    “Yes… !”

    Bang Deok-su, who had been clicking the mouse for a while, gave an order to his subordinate.

    But even though it was a video, there was no way it could be uploaded properly. The reason there was a problem with their channel was because Maria had done it herself.

    It was Maria’s work to take away Crocodile Studio’s right to speak and beat it up. Because of her interruption, none of their opinions succeeded in being uploaded.

    In the end, Crocodile Studio wasted a lot of time writing articles and making videos, rather than making a statement.

    Bang Deok-su, who had been hitting the upload button for a while, threw away the mouse.

    “Aaaaa!! Fuck!!! Get another account! okay… Contact our other creators! Please post a statement instead!”

    While Crocodile Studio was being turned upside down, the bombs prepared by Maria began to explode one after another.

    [Second revelation has appeared haha]

    ***

    Jang Seok-gi started off well.

    The role I asked Seok-gi Jang to do was to upload the sniping video to leave as much of an impression on people as possible. He made good use of his image as a martial arts athlete and uploaded a very bloody video.

    ‘Was it really a big deal to decide to open a new channel?’

    -There is that, and we have written a new contract that is favorable to Jang Seok-gi. I decided to provide proper support as well.

    To make sure we get the job done, we decided to bring Jang Seok-gi to Awaken as well. Even if the contract was favorable to the creator, it was not a loss as Maria’s capabilities allowed her to extract more than her share of profit.

    As more and more creators signed contracts one by one, it felt like it was becoming a real MCN.

    “Wow… ”

    “Of course, experts have different forces. Right?”

    “Well, that’s right… ”

    Sarah, who watched the video together, seemed a little scared. If she, who is on the same side, is like this, how horrified must be the person who was shot.

    I couldn’t help but laugh as I imagined the horror of the people who bullied my person.

    At that time, Sarah, who was holding her smartphone, saw something and read it out loud.

    “Second revelation… ?”

    ‘Oh, it looks like it just came up.’

    I felt like I saw the extra hit Maria had prepared.

    The content prepared under the name of the second revelation was a revelation written by an internal employee.

    When Bang Deok-su founded the company in the form of MCN, he fired several of his existing employees. Among them, he found the person who was most dissatisfied with him and commissioned him. Of course, because the process was conducted anonymously, the employee could not know who had received the request.

    Maria obtained the data insufficient for disclosure through hacking. Their studio was full of illegal and immoral content, so there was no need for any manipulation. All I needed was a business card from an internal employee.

    Because it was a community for office workers who had to go through verification to join, the revelation article instantly gained attention and was pinned to the top of the community.

    The content of the article was that while planning the program unreasonably, they increased the size of the program and did not pay the minimum wage, and did not keep their promise to hire a full-time employee of the studio if the program did well. In addition, it included content pointing out the personality of the representative, Bang Deok-su.

    “’He often verbally abuses employees and often makes disparaging remarks about other creators he knows… ‘ oh my god… ”
