Chapter 50 – Follow Me If You Can
“Ah, I guess it’s not the editor . I must be mistaken . I’m sorry . I apologize . So should I just leave now?”
Tewon slowly turned around .
It was Jaegun
He was smiling with his phone on his ear .
“Writer Ha…? How… did you get here?”
Tewon was completely surprised at his sudden appearance .
Jaegun put his phone away and answered .
“You said you bought a house here . I remembered the apartment building . I thought you weren’t about to answer, so the timing was great right? If I was unlucky, I may have left without meeting you . ”
“Ah, writer don’t take it the wrong way . I was going to answer . I was just thinking . My head is really…”
Jaegun waved it off .
“What are you saying? I’m fine . But before that, you should check your email . ”
“Mail?”
“Yes, your personal email . ”
Jaegun’s finger was pointing towards Tewon’s phone .
Tewon with a dazed look pulled up his email . In his email, three books of a called Dragon Rider was there .
“Writer Ha, this…?”
Tewon had to ask even if he knew .
It was hard to continue with his overflowing emotions .
Recently, he had looked hard for a writer, struggling to even find one .
He pleaded with them to just trust him once so many times .
But no one answered .
A good selling writer, a bad selling writer, everyone rejected him with different reasons . No one trusted Tewon enough to follow him yet .
But…
Now a writer came here without him even asking .
A writer who wasn’t the bottom anymore, a writer who had lifted himself up to the highest ceiling . A person like that came to his house with his own works .
“It’s my new , read it and give me feedback . ”
“Writer Ha…”
Tewon sighed .
Tewon knew Jaegun’s personality, so he had shut his mouth about resigning . He didn’t want Jaegun to lose money because of him .
“I came here, so I can’t leave just now . ”

Jaegun said as he tied his shoes .
“I’ll go back with your feedback . If you want to sleep early, you’re going to have to be compliant . ”
Tewon’s two eyes went back to his phone .
He answered quietly .
“If you say that, I must read it quickly . And you did write it really quickly . ”
“I think I’m great this year . ”
Jaegun pointed towards the opposite side of the street .
“Editor, I didn’t eat yet . If you didn’t either, then let’s go over there . There’s HOF on the 1st floor . ”
“Yes, writer . Let’s go . ”
He put his phone away . He needed a place to concentrate anyway .
“What do you want? You pick . ”
“How’s chicken . It’s good . ”
“I’m fine . ”
“Here, one fried . Hm . . ”
Tewon looked around and asked .
“How about a drink?”
“Yes . ”
“Give us two drinks . ”
The two beers came out before the chicken .
Jaegun sipped his drink while Tewon started reading – his two eyes showing off his long-stayed editing skills .
“Here it is . ”
The chicken came as Jaegun drank about a half of his beer .
Tewon didn’t lift his head once . His beer was losing steam quickly .
“Give us another drink . ”
Jaegun got another drink .
And then Tewon started on Book 2 .
30 minutes, then an hour .
There were no words between the two .
About 2 hours .
“I finished . ”
Tewon smiled as he looked up .
Jaegun immediately asked, half-expectant half-worried .
“How is it? Is it good?”

“First, It’s entertaining . ”
Tewon’s first sentence made Jaegun nervous . He knew this was the only compliment .
Tewon never made any useless compliments .
‘First? Then the negatives will come out now . ’
In martial arts and fantasy, Jaegun trusted Tewon the most .
Tewon lifted up 3 fingers .
“There are 3 problems . ”
“Ha, that’s a lot . ”
“I’ll start with the light one . First, the title of Dragon Rider isn’t very good . There are a lot of books with that name . ”
Jaegun laughed with Tewon .
That wasn’t a serious problem . He could change it .
Jaegun asked for the other problems .
“Second… . Writer, do you know that my management is pay by chapter service?”
“Yes, of course . ”
“It releases about 5500 characters repeatedly . And so it’s completely different from paper books . You need an outline for every chapter and you need to make the end very interesting so readers would want to know more like a drama . “
“Hm yes . I know . ”
Jaegun answered .
He could change that . He read a lot of drama, so he had the confidence to change it .
“What’s the last one?”
Tewon couldn’t answer immediately .
It was a really serious one .
Tewon first drank about half his drink before he answered .
“I got a warning to not take away any writers . ”
Tewon said truthfully .
It wasn’t something to hide .
It was Jaegun who trusted him to come here .
He needed to be truthful about this . So Tewon continued .
“StarBooks doesn’t want to lose you . If you sign with me, it might cause you harm . ”
“What harm?”
“They might harm your marketing . ”
Tewon cut him off .
“Like Munpia or Zoayo, they don’t need marketing . The system is fair . If it’s fun, readers will read it . ”
“Hm, yes…”

“But in other places, it’s a lot different . There are places where profits won’t come without marketing . The real money’s in those places…”
Tewon spoke really quickly without even stopping to breathe and finished his entire drink .
Jaegun ordered another .
“There’s no place to put banners… Or the other manager’s project promotion schedule is strict so they have no time… All the excuses they might make . In this place, it’s a job with people and connections have a lot of power . Last week, I faced other companies and I just lost hard . ”
At this, Tewon bitterly smiled .
They stopped talking and drank quickly .
“Haa, I’m sorry . I’ve only put a burden on you . ”
“No, it’s not . ”
Jaegun answered as he put his cup down
Now Tewon was done and it was Jaegun’s turn .
“What about you?”
“Me?”
“As you said, it’s not my problem only . It’s your problem as well . Your management will be taking a hit but can you still sign with me?”
“Yes . ”
There was no hesitation .
“I want to have you even if the management fails . Although I don’t think it will happen . Because…”
Tewon continued after a pause .
“Your writing is entertaining . Entertaining works always work . That’s for sure . ”
Tewon smiled and cheered .
Jaegun smiled as well .
“I guess the pay per chapter I wanted to do with the 3rd Ranking series will be done here . Thank you . ”
“No, thank you . I’ll do really well . ”
“I’ll help you, editor, no representative now . It’s kind of weird . ”
“Just call me anything . ”
“By the way,what’s the management name?”
“Laugh Books . So only good things work . It’s better than Smile, right?”
“No, Editor, You shouldn’t be the one saying my titles are bad . How about KalKal Books” (KalKal is another way of saying laugh . ”
“Why? It’s a good name . My wife made it . ”
“Hm, then it’s really good . ”
“Wow, that reaction . Well, there’s a reason why pay per chapter is the new thing . If it works, the profits will be amazing . ”
“Yes, I’ll do well . So where should I start?”
“Navin Store or Munpia probably”
“I get it, representative, Cheers . ”
“Yes, Writer . ”
The cold food and drinks weren’t the issue . The night was getting darker and darker and the two people didn’t care, as their conversation didn’t know when to stop .
