Chapter 51 - Im Giseok Strikes Back

It seemed like Kim Soseong and his studio were working in perfect coordination.

First, he posted "Justice is in people's hearts," and then the studio quickly followed up, claiming they wouldn't let go of the recent defamation and rumors about Kim Soseong.

Kim Soseong has always maintained a good relationship with marketing accounts.

As soon as he and his studio reposted these two statements, the marketing accounts and his fans quickly shared them.

Some even went to the young screenwriters' comment sections, mockingly stating they were eager to see their downfall.

And then, a new report with a completely different tone appeared.

[ @ScreenwriterIm Giseok√: Oh, really? ]

Netizens: "…"

Im Giseok's comment gave them the impression of a dramatic and sarcastic appearance.

[ Since I've been waiting forever for someone to threaten me, I guess I'll just step up myself. ]

[ Hahaha, poor Im Giseok. ]

[ When threatening the young screenwriters, can you always forget about Im Giseok? What does Im Giseok even have done to you! ]

[ Im Giseok: I'm not upset. It's just that a friend of mine is a bit overwhelmed. ]

Next, Im Giseok tagged each of the young screenwriters who had previously spoken out.

Without much talk, he summed it up in three words—"Bro has money."

Im Giseok was one of the victims.

In terms of fame, he was now gradually moving beyond the realm of young screenwriters.

Plus, his article was recognized by the big shots and allowed him to stand on the moral high ground and criticize Kim Soseong.

And the fact that he had money was not a lie at all.

<> alone boosted the quarterly performance of BingeBox—compared to before the short drama went live, the number of VIP members and views on BingeBox skyrocketed, earning back the profits of the past three years.

This quarter, BingeBox's advertising volume was the highest in the industry.

<> has a funny storyline and is very suitable for product placements, so the platform has already snatched several big clients from CineHeaven TV and ReelRise.

More importantly, Im Giseok's new short drama won the hearts of both viewers and advertisers, giving BingeBox more prospects for future development.

As the creator of the script, Im Giseok received a substantial share of the profits.

In this world, screenwriters have the right to share in the profits from a series, but for new screenwriters, the share is very limited.

BingeBox's share for Im Giseok was much higher than usual for new screenwriters.

Not only did he get a cut of the viewership revenue, but he also got a share of the advertising profits.

If possible, BingeBox would love to keep Im Giseok tied down, ideally for over 20 years.

[ So, when can <> released three episodes a week? Two episodes a week is just not enough! ]

[ When you're free to show off your money, why don't you hurry up and write more scripts? I've already watched the aired episodes three times!!! ]
