188. Geeks (2)
Stopping by the club Professor Lamarcus said was postponed until later.
I’m not a college student, but there were quite a few classes I signed up for, and each one was a waste to miss.
In addition, the engineering-related class was quite a headache even though I had a lot of digestion.
“Even though I’m auditioning, it’s an assignment! What a task!”
In addition, assignments were given in one subject. Of course, I thought I was free with assignments because I was an audition.
[Even if you audition, you still have to do the homework. It’s an evaluation of how well you did in class. You can do it. student? Of course, it’s not going to get good grades, so it’s less burdensome, right?]
He tore his hair out after being accustomed to the strict professor’s assignment, but soon lowered his head and agreed. Still, the task wasn’t particularly difficult.
“Anyway, unless it’s a group assignment.”
Besides, the quality of the classes was quite high. It was to the point where I could feel my talent digesting and accumulating in real time.
I definitely feel it, but it was true that this kind of learning was a great help in digesting the talent of the ring.
Could it be the teachings of the world’s great scholars?
And in the late afternoon when all classes are over. Jaeik rang the doorbell of a shared office two blocks away.
[Five! come! Looks like you’re here! Wait!]
[Idiot! You pressed the doorbell answering button! hello! I’ll open the door right away!]
Instead of a greeting, the door opened with a raucous voice, and Jaeik opened the door to the room where it was written.
(hello!)
At the same time as the door opened, five students with sparkling eyes that were quite burdened rushed in.
(Welcome! I heard from Professor LaMarcus.)
(It’s an honor to meet you! I’m a fan! A fan! Oh my God! Song Jae-ik!)
(Ahaha. Hello. My name is Jaeik Song.)
(Oh my God! Author Song Jae-ik!)
(Oh, Vanessa?)
Among them was Vanessa, whom he knew from class together, so Jaeik waved happily.
And how twinkling are the eyes looking at the scene.
(Oh, hello…)
(Oh! What, did you know each other?)
(We took class together. Today.)
(Then I’ll tell you before! I’m a fan of Ricky’s story! Why are you saying hello like that!)
(Never mind!)
It was only then, after hearing someone’s words, that Vanessa introduced herself and hiccuped to determine the reason why she strangely distanced herself.
‘It’s embarrassing.’
He said he was a fan of Ricky’s story, and he didn’t even know it was Song Jae-ik, so he poured out his words so carelessly.
Aren’t you averting your eyes even now?
(You said it a long time ago. You’re a fan of Ricky’s story. Fans are always welcome.)
As Jaeik approached with a smile, Vanessa shook off her embarrassing memory and carefully held Jaeik’s hand and shook it.
What was the view of the office that I looked at then? Rather than feeling like an orderly office, the office is messy and messy.
However, a cursory glance at the messy documents revealed that they were prototypes made from attraction design, planning, or models.
‘Kind of a Geek. Are you attraction geeks? Literally sincere about the attraction.’
As Professor LaMarcus said, they were people who were serious about the attraction.
(Yaya! Who’s the first one! Let’s put it away!)
(Because you came first! Sit here!)
(No, to think that such a precious person would visit such a humble place.)
(I’m a fan! Sa… please sign me!)
Only then did the students look at the messy desk and offered Jaeik the neatest chair in a cold sweat.
(Oh, it looks like they said hello already.)
In the middle of the greeting, Professor LaMarcus took off his hat and entered.
(Are you here?)
(Guys. They told me to put it away because I have guests. You put it all aside. I always have to keep it tidy.)
(Ahaha… that’s right.)
(Let’s go to the conference room. The conference room is still tidy.)
As LaMarcus followed into the conference room, the students rushed into the conference room like chickens following their mother.
(The name of the club is Fun Playground. There are a total of 8 students, but there are 3 students who couldn’t come to class because of the current class.)
After hearing about the club from Professor LaMarcus, I asked Kang Seok to find out about it, and it turned out to be a better place than I thought.
It’s just a club in name. As a student, there were many students who had an internship experience that would allow them to get a job at a company as soon as they graduated.
In the past, there were quite a few students who went to famous companies.
And most importantly, Professor Lamarcus’ biographies were astonishing. Although he retired from the company and works as a professor, the attractions he designed when he was young are sprinkled in theme parks around the world.
Should I say that it is literally a sample of Jaya’s hidden master?
‘Even if you look around the news, you can nod your head when you hear the name LaMarcus Thompson. Students taught by such a professor must come up with a lot of good ideas.’
(Ooh. Your portfolio is pretty impressive.)
It was quite impressive to say that it was a simple club portfolio. The result was the same, but it is a portfolio that includes the process as well.
In addition, looking at the papers and models that I had glanced at outside, it seemed that they were doing activities that were really close to practical work.
Besides, it seemed that Professor Lamarcus was leading it that way.
I thought I’d meet you and think about it. To be honest, I don’t think there’s any reason to worry about this. If only the students would know, as long as Professor LaMarcus was behind them.
(Oh, but why is the writer in our club?)
(Yeah. Uh. Come to think of it, I’m not even a student at school.)
(Hey, you fools.)
After Professor LaMarcus arrived, the students who calmed down their excitement only then looked at LaMarcus and Jaeik with questions about Jaeik’s coming to the attraction club.
(Ahaha…)
(Maybe you could tell the students what you told me, because I’m sure they’ll like it. And I think it’d be better for the CEO to say it himself instead of me.)
From the construction of the Challenge Everything theme park to the design of the attractions.
I thought it might have a lot to say.
(Come visit the company once. I’ll explain it to you then.)
(Uh oh oh! An invitation to the Challenge Everything company!)

“How was the class, is it worth listening to? It’s college life again. You should also enjoy the campus life then!”
Upon arriving at the company parking lot after the meeting with Fun Playground, Kang-seok asked Jae-ik about his school work, hoping that something good would happen to Jae-ik’s handsome face.
“good. very good We had a few meetings about attraction design and planning.”
“What? Regarding attraction design? Isn’t it too soon?”
“Early. You should prepare from now. It is much better to prepare in advance than to prepare late and tight.”
I was used to always working ahead of time rather than doing it tight because I was pressed for time.
“But did you have a meeting with the company at school? Suddenly, what kind of planning meeting?”
“It is not a business. Are you planning to leave it to the club students there?”
It was because I was thinking of entrusting it to Professor Lamarcus and his students, not to a professional planning company.
“Eek? students? What else do you mean? you are students Still, it’s better to leave it to the professionals. Could it be that Fun Playground you asked me to look for?”
“Yeah, there. What could it be?”
Of course, it was a theory. Entrusting the planning and design to a professional company.
But this time it was different. Of course, I thought so before I met Professor LaMarcus and Fun Playground, but when the situation changes, of course I have to change my mind.
“Ugh, I don’t know what kind of pill I got. Well, you know you’ll do well. Still, as you said, the theme park project isn’t easy, and you’re probably the most concerned about it.”
“Maybe I’ll come to the office sometime next week. Then we should talk about it properly.”
“Anyway, you too. One day after going to school, I make something again and do something new. I told you, I didn’t go there to learn.”
“Anyway, nagging. How about something else?”
“It’s going incredibly well. Book sales are breaking new records. Sales of The Ricky Story in particular have been insane. It’s to the point where I can’t figure out where it will end. Watpad also contacted me that they were just running the printing press full 24 hours a day. There is nothing to talk about in this world. Goods sales are no joke either.”
Certainly, as if seeing the effect of releasing the goods at once during the convention, the sales volume of goods bearing the Challenge Everything mark was noticeably increasing.
“What about the figure?”
At the talk of the figure, Kang Seok sighed and shook his head.
“There are thousands of pre-reservations. There is no answer if you go to regular reservations. The Figureway team also said that they really think they will have to stick to that side all year round. Recruitment is going well, but since it is silicon, it should be a bit tricky. The other team is running with a team.”
“Good.”
“right. It is unspeakably good.”
and company entrance.
“by the way.”
“But what?”
“Isn’t the entrance a bit empty?”
“What is that again?”
“It’s just our office building, but it seems a bit empty. I wonder what it would be like to have something like a nice sculpture.”
Jaeik nodded while thinking of something again, and Kangseok just shrugged his shoulders thinking that he would do something again.
—
(Ah ah ah-)
As soon as they entered the company, Fun Playground students opened their mouths wide and were busy looking around every nook and cranny of the building.
Actually, it was a rather empty entrance, but it was such a strange expression just to visit here.
(Welcome, Fun Playgrounds, right?)
(yes!)
Professor Lamarcus just stood back and watched the students with a smile. As expected, I thought it was a good idea to tell CEO Song Jae-ik.
In fact, the skills of the current students are better than any other students in the past. His passion for creating attractions was also outstanding.
However, what is lacking is experience.
No matter how much you’re interested in attractions and like planning, if you lack actual experience, you can’t help but regret it.
However, it was difficult for these students to gain proper practical experience. At least because he is confident, he only accumulates experience little by little in return for doing something.
But Jaeik must have seen the value of his name as well, but he genuinely accepted the offer after seeing the enthusiasm of the students.
After a rough introduction of the company, the staff in charge of the guidance led the students to a place where there was profit.
(Huh? Where are you going?)
In a normal president’s office, it would have been on the top floor, but the one led by the staff was on the outermost side of the building. It was even more like a workroom or a warehouse that was becoming more and more empty.
(Ah. The CEO is currently working on it. He told me to bring him there. It’s probably a good sighting. In fact, the staff sometimes watch the CEO work.)
And the closer I got to the studio, the louder the sound of a hammer hitting metal.
And the moment you enter the studio.
(Wow, awesome.)
(Crazy… what size!)
(You really made that yourself?)
The Fun Playground students, including Professor LaMarcus, couldn’t keep their mouths shut when they saw what Jaeik was making.
