37 – 37. Sniping (4)
“Director Min… Are you serious right now?”
“Then?”
Producer Park Min-joon of the ‘Social Sniper’ program looked at News Director Min Seong-ha and looked in disbelief.
“No matter what, it was decided to air as a series, so how can I change it right away? There are a lot of comments about hitting the trailer… This means that the topicality is at the highest level this year. “But you’re changing this week’s broadcast?”
“How do I change it? “Who decides whether to change that?”
“Well, that’s it..”
Director Min spoke to PD Park, who was muttering in a shaky voice, as if it were obvious.
“It’s me. So change it.”
PD Park was on the verge of going crazy.
We produced a three-part series after covering closely for three months about problems in the nearby soil caused by the discharge of pollutants from a pharmaceutical manufacturing plant located in the Gyeongbuk region.
That’s true, but now they’re saying that next week’s episode of ‘Social Sniping’ should be replaced with something else?
Does this make sense?
I would understand if they didn’t hit the trailer.
The number of comments that caused social outrage exceeds thousands.
In addition, communication with civic groups in the Gyeongbuk region was completed.
We have done everything we can to promote it.
But what are we going to do now?
“Still, please reconsider. Director Min. We have already come too far.”
“PD Park. Did I tell you not to air that? “I’m telling you to postpone it for just one week.”
Words don’t make sense.
Director Min is not the stubborn type.
There is definitely something.
If you argue further, the situation may get strangely complicated, so you need to extract as much information as possible.
Wouldn’t that be the only way to properly explain things to the people involved?
“Then please at least explain why that is the case. “Why on earth are you trying to overturn the trailer that was aired in order to air it?”
“That’s because there is something stronger.”
It’s stronger than this?
Is this a broadcast that can garner the support of the majority of viewers in Gyeongbuk?
Apart from that.
Do I have to make a broadcast this Friday with a plan that I haven’t even heard exactly what it is yet?
Today is Wednesday??
“You can only tell if something is serious, but realistically, it is impossible to start from today and air it on Friday evening. Finding a writer in a hurry is not only a problem, but the editors these days are so lazy that their eyes are about to pop out. “It doesn’t even make sense right now to extract the amount of footage!”
Director Min wordlessly handed the USB to PD Park, who was speaking passionately.
PD Park suddenly received the USB.
“What is it? This?”
“No need for a writer, no need for filming, no need for reporting. You can write exactly what is inside. Since you’re such a proud person, you have the right to edit, so I saved the original footage separately on a USB, so you can touch it if you want. “As long as the big picture remains the same, anything is okay.”
“..Yes?”
What does this mean again?
Are you ready?
PD Park looked like he didn’t understand.
“What is this? “Are you telling me to just put a spoon on it?”
“That’s the way it is.”
PD Park’s face crumpled.
“Director Min. Anyway, I still have the conviction to be a producer. “I can just accept whatever is thrown at me.”
Director Min raised his hand and interrupted PD Park.
“PD Park. I have no intention of scratching your pride. “Look at this.”
Director Min held up his phone.
PD Park, who was looking at Director Min’s phone with annoyed eyes, saw the article on the phone and his eyes widened.
“Chaebol abuse of power?”
“Yes. The world has been boring these days, right? “Let’s give the people something refreshing.”
PD Park took a look at Director Min’s face and then read the article again.
The scene captured between articles had a pose as if a pitcher was throwing a fastball.
“Did it come out well? “I don’t know how many pieces I cut the candle into to pull it out.”
PD Park asked while holding up the USB.
“Are you saying the content in the article is included here?”
“It contains the original CCTV footage, coverage details, and even an interview with the convenience store owner. This is the result of editing all night long after paying extra money to a talented outsourcing company. As I said before, there is the original, so if you don’t like it, PD Park can edit it himself, so don’t worry. Ah? “There is one more condition other than maintaining the big picture: it has to match the edited running time.”
“Running time? “How much is it?”
“35 Minutes.”
It is short.
About 12 to 15 minutes short.
What will we replace the rest of the time with?
“Are there any other works? Why is the time ambiguous?”
A strange smile appeared on Director Min’s lips.
“The remaining time will be spent interviewing another victim.”
Interview?
No. Even though it’s an interview, the time is too rough…
Really?
“Is this live?”
“Uh.”
PD Park’s face crumpled in a different way than before.
“Yes? Does that make sense? “Are you saying it was broadcast live on a social reporting program?”
“This is the victim’s request. “If you don’t listen to that, he won’t do the interview.”
What kind of bullsh*t is this?
The victim is being interviewed live??
“Isn’t it too dangerous? “A live broadcast with an amateur…”
“Is it dangerous? Don’t you know that anchors also pick up coverage right away on the air? The victim being interviewed is a woman who is just starting out in society. The mask is pretty good too. It means that he is not a pot-bellied man who was hit by money. Isn’t there a picture? A real live broadcast of an innocent, pretty, but weak and socially underprivileged person. It’s perfect for stimulating viewers’ emotions. “If a pretty woman sobs realistically, the people won’t stay silent, right?”
It was already structurally complete.
There is no room for PD Park to intervene.
Considering that the time was short, it must have been a plan that was carried out while maintaining security.
PD Park sighed and asked.
“But. Who is this? “You are a third generation chaebol who has no sense of throwing away money.”
“Seo Woo-jin of Seohwa Group.”
“Seohwa Group? “Chairman Seo Chang-soo won’t sit still.. Was this decision made from above?”
“Up? Ah.. I guess I didn’t tell you that.”
Director Min giggled for a moment, then suppressed his laughter and said.
“I will be above that sooner or later. So PD Park just does as he says.”

“I think this is my story.”
Kim Chae-yoon covered her mouth at my calm words.
Oh wow.
The surprised expression is almost like that of an actor.
No, because you have a pretty face, does that mean you look like an actress no matter what you do?
“Um, are you serious? “I was just wondering…”
A trembling voice.
Thank you for your concern.
But how did you know it was my story?
Ah.
There was a photo in the middle of the article.
People who don’t know may not know, but they could tell that the person who is always close to me, like secretary Kim Chae-yoon, is me because of the similarity in physique and body shape, even if the face is a mosaic.
I looked at the contents of the article again.
A simple yet neatly organized article.
It wasn’t at the level of a joke where you get a few pennies and spend it.
From the title to the content, the timing of the photo and the final phrase.
It was a perfect piece of work.
The problem is that it is a perfect novel?
“I was so angry at the convenience store owner’s attitude and tone of voice that I threw money?”
Although he was possessed by a chaebol, he was not a crazy person who threw 5 million won because he was angry at his tone.
If you want to add a reason, add it properly.
No.
This could have been a more reasonable reason to create trash.
I was so angry that I couldn’t control it.
How dare you treat the common people and the chaebols!
A worm with no money is coming out!
This phrase might work well.
Still, this was described as trash without any context?
Hmm.
After reading the article again, I began to see the situation from before.
Yes.
This is why my grandfather suddenly called me.
Have you already obtained the information?
“But seeing as you just sent me away.”
I believe that I am not at fault,
Or maybe they sent it to you to solve it on your own.
But the former probably doesn’t make sense.
There is no way the leader who started the group would trust someone so easily.
It would be no different even if it were blood related.
You said that before too.
They said they allowed the consolidation of overseas branches because it would benefit the group if I didn’t do anything.
It’s not because you trust me?
Kim Chae-yoon said in a trembling voice.
“Shall I contact the public relations manager?”
What do you put in it?
Take down the article?
Ah.
Since they are a conglomerate, something like that might be possible.
But is this possible?
I handed over the phone to Chae-yoon Kim and started searching for articles on my phone.
When I received it from Chae-yoon Kim, there were about 2 or 3 articles posted, but now it looks like there are well over 20 articles.
The news keeps being reproduced.
The number of comments on each article is skyrocketing.
Starting with who is this horo bastard, he even said that if he was a chaebol, he wouldn’t have gone to the military, but he must have received an early education in baseball, and even commented that since they are the modern-day aristocrats, it’s natural that the commoners will be cut out.
The comments on the article were becoming increasingly chaotic.
Everything I read makes me laugh.
“But this is the real problem rather than the article.”
This Friday.
So, to be precise, an article covering this incident was posted on the ‘Social Sniping’ program that airs the day after tomorrow evening.
hahahaha.
Isn’t that strange?
There is not much difference between the time the first article was posted and the time of this article.
Are you planning a broadcast already??
Something is wrong with this…
The moment I tensed my head, someone opened the door to the secretary’s office and came in.
I turned my head and saw a familiar man.
Immediately, the partially inherited memories were fully operational.
“Huh? Director Kang Min-han?”
It’s impossible not to know who it is.
The right-hand man of his father, Chief Seo Tae-han, and the head of the Strategic Planning Office.
What it means that he came here.
“Director Seo. “The boss is calling.”
As expected.
After my grandfather, even my father calls me.
Father..
By the way.
