Choi Sung-geon smirked, his expression brimming with confidence. Theyâd secured the funding already? Although Woo-jin maintained his poker face due to his "method," inwardly, he was thoroughly impressed.
âWowâthat was fast!â
Honestly, he thought it would take a bit longer. After all, it was hundreds of billions of won. To gather that much money so quicklyâWoo-jin couldnât help but feel a newfound respect for Choi Sung-geonâs abilities, even if he kept his excitement carefully contained.
"It was faster than I expected."
Sung-geon shrugged nonchalantly as he replied.
"Once a deal like this is on the table, you have to push it through quickly. I started with Chairman Yoshimura Hideki and managed to pull some strings here and there. Of course, it wasnât easyâit only worked because of BW Entertainmentâs reputation and your name."
Sung-geon placed a hand on Woo-jinâs shoulder with a grin.
"You do know your estimated market value, right?"
"I donât really pay attention to that."
"Of course, but the rest of the world caresâa lot. Anywayâ"
He trailed off, switching topics.
"How much are you planning to invest in *Guest*? Have you thought about it?"
As someone with zero experience in investments, Woo-jin hadnât given it much thought, especially before becoming an actor. However, this was his moment to keep up appearances.
"I have. Iâll prepare a breakdown and let you know."
"Great. Weâll handle the main investment under BW Entertainment, but weâll draft separate documents for you personally. In the meantime, focus on the project."
"Understood, CEO."
After wrapping up their conversation, Woo-jin returned to the set of *Piero: Birth of a Villain*. That dayâs filming extended late into the night, and as the actors prepared to leave, Woo-jin spotted Chris Hartnett about to step into his van. Woo-jin called out to him, both of them now without makeup.
"Chris."
It wasnât typical for Woo-jin to initiate conversation, so Chris stepped out of his van with a grin.
"Well, well, what a rare occasion! Youâre reaching out first?"
