Alex seems delighted...
Jong soo is busy serving the customers, as Jong-soo serves the order and returns to the kitchen
Alex calls Jong-soo
"Hey, Jong-soo...I understand why you always make mistakes while working with me"
Jong soo scrunches up his eyes and asks: "Why?"
Alex smirks: "You know I'm so famous, so talented, it must be difficult for anybody not to feel tensed?''
Jong soo looks bewildered and asks:'Famous?"
Alex: "yeah...CEO of INTELLEKT group wants to work with me, he must have fallen in love with the dishes that Kim might have bought from our restaurant"
Jong soo(scoffs)
Alex: "I know you people can't reach my level but try hard "
Alex starts moving towards the kitchen
Shin Min looks at Jong-soo
Shin Min and Jong-soo laugh together at the child-like attitude of Alex
Jong soo: "Is Mr.Kim sure that his CEO wants to work with this guy"
Shin Min nods: "I don't know the exact reason but that's the case"
Jong soo looks at Shin Min and is utterly perplexed
Sun ri goes back to her home after a day's work
she opens the door
she enters her home, everyday while entering she has this thought, it would have been good to have someone waiting for me, be with me
She then closes the door and embraces the loneliness of the house which is what she owns
She gets freshened up, changes into a night suit
prepares a cup of coffee
while drinking the coffee, she sits at her study table, opens her laptop
she uploads a file to the journal in the name of Alex
Her phone rings
Senior author calling.
Sun Ri: "Hello! professor!!
Senior author: "You must have been mad at me for sharing your details with someone"
Sun Ri with a nonchalant voice: "No sir"
SA: "I know you have been continuing research and publishing articles under a proxy name to assist me. but how long are you going to hide from the world...that guy has a really good offer..."
Sun Ri interrupts him: "Sir, you know well that I don't like to come out, I'm just doing my bit as I'm grateful for all the help you did. I was able to start my store only because of you
.All my life I have let down people who have done a lot for me
take a pause trying to control her pain.at least I want to be of some help to you..so please.."
SA: "Dear child, don't think too much about the past...have a good dinner and go to sleep"
Sun Ri:"Ok ..bye"
Shin Min reaches home
he lives with her father, mother, younger brother, her aunt(who's husband has been deceased), and her girlchild
Shin Min's father suffered a major accident at work, hence can't take up the job which made shin min start work early
Her younger brother has been suffering from a serious ailment
She also has to support the education of her aunt's child
Shin Min's mother while serving the dinner: "What did the doctor say ?"
Shin Min: "I'm going to meet him tomorrow along with Sun Ri mam"
The next morning Sun Ri and Shin min at the doctor's cabin
Doctor: "The recent tests suggest that the surgery should be done within a week as against a month as we thought earlier"
Shin Min: "Week"??
Shin Min looks anxious
Doctor: "Get prepared for it as soon as possible"
Sun Ri holds Shin Min's trembling hands...
Sun ri: "Ok Doctor, thank you"
Shin Min: "How can we arrange the funds, the order that we thought would help, will take a month"
Sun ri: "Don't worry, we will find a way out...as much as you are like my sister, he is also my brother.."
Shin Min: "I can't thank you enough for the things you have done till now for me and my family.sorry I have to trouble you again"
Sun Ri: "Don't cry!"
Sun Ri and Shin min reaches their workplace
Kim standing there waving at Shin min and greeting Sun Ri
Kim: "Ms.Sun Ri, I have something to tell you"
Sun ri makes him and Shin min sit in her cabin
Kim: "Our CEO is impressed by the articles that Mr.Alex has published in the journal and wants to put his ideas to use to upgrade the game he has been working on .it's very important for him to take over a rival company. So he has been very generous with the remuneration. However, Mr.Alex is adamant and didn't even listen to me..can u please convince him"
While Sun Ri thinks about it, Mr.Kim observes handwritten copies of the articles and letters from the journal at Sun Ri's table
Kim: "Ms.Ri, by any chance, are you the one?"
Sun Ri quickly responds: "Yeah"
Shin Min and Kim get shocked and look at each other
Sun Ri: "I have been publishing my research to assist my professor, the senior author, I had no intention of revealing my identity to anyone...However, as of now, we are in dire need of money, as you and I combinedly cant be able to assist with the surgery of Shin min's brother immediately. Can you do me a favor, I shall share my work and give inputs online to your CEO but let Mr. Alex be the face. I don't want to face the world"
Kim: "Sure"
Sun ri: "Make sure to arrange the money as soon as possible, tell your CEO that the updated version will be ready soon"
Kim: "Sure"..leaves happily
calls his boss
Kim: "The author has agreed to work with us"
Joo won: "Good job Kim"
Kim: "Thank you..however, there is a condition "
Joo won: "What?"
Kim: "As he is in dire need of money, he wants the remuneration to be transferred early"
Joo won: "Let him sign the contract and take the money immediately"
Kim: "Thank you"
Joo won: "But I have a condition"
Kim: "What"
Joo won: "I want to meet that genius whose writing impressed me before signing the contract. Arrange for a meeting tomorrow"
Joo won disconnects the call
Kim looks clueless and informs Sun Ri and Shin min about this.
Shin Min: "We have to make Mr. Alex meet your CEO and sound like an expert researcher in artificial intelligence, gaming..whatever"
Kim nods
Sun Ri: "We have to make this happen"
Shin min, Kim, and Sun Ri surround Mr.Alex
Alex gets puzzled: "what's wrong? "
Sun ri: "We want you to accomplish a task tomorrow"
Alex: "I know John who resides in our neighborhood, it's his son's birthday today, he might have ordered chicken in bulk, you might be worried that at such a short notice..how can we serve...I can...I can "
Kim: "Can you please stop thinking about chicken for a while..please"
Shin Min: "Listen carefully, tomorrow the CEO of INTELLECT group is going to meet you"
Alex gets startled: "what"
Shin Min: "Don't ask any questions but you have to say yes to whatever he says and follow our instructions while talking"
Alex looks confused
Sun ri: "Mr.Alex, this is very important...you have to do well, funds for the surgery of Shin min's brother depend on this"
Alex nods: "Ok"
Kim goes to his CEO and says
"I have arranged for a meeting with him tomorrow at Sun Ri's store cum restaurant"
Shin min, jong soo dresses up Alex in a suit
Alex: "How handsome I look"
Jong soo laughs
Shin Min: "stop it jong soo"
Shin Min hands over a piece of paper: "Sun Ri mam has given this slip, you have to speak these words when he asks something repeat them"
Jong soo: "And don't let him see you are reading from a paper"
Shin Min: "You will have bluetooth on and we will guide you..please don't spoil"
Alex: "You will be shocked by my performance. I have been a theatre artist..you know how"
Jong so:'Stop it please, focus on the paper"
Alex: "Ok ok"
Kim opens the door for his CEO
Joo won: "you have visited this place earlier right"
Kim: "yeah my girlfriend lives here"
Joo won(in his head): "Girlfriend..why he calls that man girlfriend..he should proudly introduce him as his boyfriend, thinking about jong soo he saw earlier with Kim
Kim and jong woo enter the restaurant
Alex is at a table cramming the words from the paper
Joo won: "Hello! Mr.Alex, nice to meet you"
Alex gets nervous, his hands trembles as he shakes hands with Joo won
Joo won: "I don't often say this but I'm quite impressed with your work"
Alex: "Thank you"
Joo won: "So you must have known about the latest version of the game that has been in vogue in the market lately..however, your research seems to overhaul it completely
Alex: "Yeah, thank you"
Joo won:", don't you think bugs will be a big problem"
Alex: "yeah bugs have been a problem, since my childhood"
Joo won: "pardon"
Jong soo: "screams in the phone..stop and read the words in the paper"
Alex hears through blue tooth
Alex: "Artificial intelligence aids...aided game are not immunity. I mean immune to rats...threats...however, there are many soups...I mean solutions in itself...."
As he speaks the paper fells down
Alex: "Artificial intelligence is like making chicken"
Kim at a distance(bangs his head) and approaches him, asking jong soo to interrupt him
Kim stands beside Alex
Joo won: "chicken?"
Alex: "As there many varieties of chicken.... their many varieties of...
jong soo tries to spill soup on Alex but accidentally spills on Kim
Jong soo: "Rubs it with cloth and asks him to accompany to the washroom"
Joo won looks at them..as they walk closely.. and thinks they did it on purpose. I thought Kim is a strict professional..how can he do it in an important meeting...
He looks at Alex and says: "You must be very fond of chicken"
Alex: "Yeah please have the chicken soup I made, especially for you"
Joo won: "you cook well while tasting it. so how about the contract"
Sun Ri on phone: "Tell him I have a few conditions"
Alex: "I have a few conditions before signing"
Joo won stares...
