Chapitre 54: Chapter 27.2
And then there was another one to get back to.
Streamer Jeong So-rim, who used her given name as it was for her stream.
-Hello, Baek Soo-King. You said you would contact me yesterday, but I didn't hear from you so I'll contact you first. I'm a little worried I might be being a bit of a nuisance. You said you had a suggestion you wanted to bring up. Is it convenient to tell me what it is? ^^
He said he would contact her yesterday, but he had ended up spending a night with Choi Soo-hyun which was very sweet and so he had forgotten about texting her.
'But why can I feel her age in this chat message?'
She certainly appeared as if she wasn't that old.
Since he had little to no acquaintance with Jeong So-rim, he chose to approach her with caution.
-Hello. Good Day. Sorry for contacting you so late.
-I was a little busy with work yesterday.
-Is it okay to talk on the phone right now?
Shortly after sending KakaoTalk, a reply came right away, and Lee Hyun-woo immediately dialled her on Voice Talk.
Since she didn't give out her phone number, he had no choice but to call her via the voice call function of KakaoTalk.
"Hello?"
"Hello? Hello. Baek Soo-King. It's my first time talking to viewers on the phone, so I'm a little nervous."
"Ahaha, is that so? Anyway, I'm sorry for yesterday because of my joining. I got you involved in something ridiculous."
"No. Thanks to Baek Sooking, the number of viewers increased, and the number of fans who signed up also increased. I really found it to be an opportunity."
At first, the atmosphere was created with some comfortable small talk.
Jung So-rim's age was felt not only in texts, but also in her speech and thoughts.
She obviously looked like she was in her 20s though.
'Is it because she learned Korean traditional music?'
"By the way, how old are you? Based on what I saw yesterday, I would've guessed at most early to mid-20s. Even if I were to guess a max, you would look like you were in the second half. You are very calm."
"Ahaha. Yes. I hear that a lot. Like an old man, I am twenty-eight years old."
"Oh, I couldn't have guessed that at all. I thought you were more of a younger sister than I haha."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Lee Hyeon-woo was attracted to Jeong So-rim's looks and gayageum skills, and Jeong So-rim was attracted to Lee Hyun-woo's wealth.
So the conversation flowed like water.
After narrowing the distance for some time through conversation, Lee Hyun-woo got to the point.
"Cashback? Perhaps... Is that kind of thing common in Korea TV? I've been in streaming for about a year, but I don't know much about Korea TV. Since my main content is non-mainstream..."
"I know, and it's not that common. But, as I explained earlier, it is not illegal either."
"Ah yes... Then, why does Baek Soo-king-nim bother to do cashback?"
'Is this question being asked again?'
This was a question that he heard every time he proposed the cash back deal to a female streamer, so now the answer for it came out rather easily.
"There is only a certain amount of money that can be spent on streaming on my end. Wouldn't it be possible to spend more money with cashback?"
"Ah! Yes. Sorry. It was a stupid question."
"No worries. So what are you going to do?"
"Can I ask one last question before I answer?"
"Yes."
"So so all the female streamers sponsored by Baek Soo-king have the same contract?"
"Yes. That's right."
"Um... Okay. I'll do it. The cash back."
The conversation was long, but the decision she came to was quick.
Jeong So-rim was calm and mature, but there was no way she wasn't greedy for money.
Hyunwoo Lee smiled as if he knew this would happen.
"Congratulations. You became a part of the 1 million club."
"Ahaha, is that so? Anyway, thanks for the congratulations. Oh, then do I have to make a cashback deposit this week too?"
"Since there is no time, let's start next week. Also, I will be attending Sorim-nim's stream every two or three days, just so you are aware."
"Okay. Is there anything else I need to know?"
"For now, this is all. I will try to fill in the rest as we get to know each other."
"Fill in... That's a word I really like. I wish you well in the future. Mr. Baek Soo-king."
"Ah, you can call me that on TV, but it's awkward now because you are calling me like that in real life. Call me by name. My name is Hyunwoo Lee."
"Ah yes. Mr. Hyunwoo."
Hyunwoo still felt a sense of distance from her in the way she spoke to him.
Lee Hyun-woo, who was about to tell her to be more comfortable around him, swallowed his words.
He thought it would be better to let the style of people like Jeong Sorim to relax into a comfortable relationship with him.
Finally, after talking on the phone with three women in a row, he felt happy and full of energy once more.
'How the hell did Casanova manage over 100 women? Maybe it was possible because there were no smartphones back then.'
Fortunately, however, he didn't have to call the remaining two women, Bread and Yeojjing.
Choi Soo-hyeon was with him from night to morning, and Kim Hana-san exchanged small greetings while giving him a wake-up call.
"Then, let's start today with a bang!"
Lee Hyun-woo shouted out in a loud voice.
Returning to the hotel, he unfolded the laptop he had purchased as a lump sum on his desk.
Bread's streaming time was still far away, and Darling said she was still preparing for the broadcast, so it would take quite a while.
Before that, he decided to explore for new female streamers that could fill the other two spots.
"Why are there so many notifications though?"
What caught Lee Hyun-woo's eye after opening up Korea TV was the notification bell with over 50 messages.
'I'm not some kind of streamer. How many people are sending me messages? Most of them must have been sent by the evil flow attracted by aggro yesterday.'
Lee Hyun-woo offhandedly clicked the notification icon for the purpose of decluttering the red tag before exploring the female streamers available.
And, as expected, most of the notifications were from bad guys asking what happened with Darling.
However, one of them was sent by a camgirl.
