Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 47

As soon as he said that, it seemed like the surrounding atmosphere froze. Everyone, including Joon-won, was shocked to the core at how easily Do Hwan mentioned giving him a chance in an audition for a new movie that quickly. Joon-won himself was taken back at how quickly he got an opportunity.
"Wah-wait What? Uncle, what do you mean? I just asked you to look at the talent and give him a small opportunity so he can start. What do you mean by giving an opportunity to audition for that upcoming movie which has been casting for over two months? Aren't the staff being very picky about the actors? Don't push yourself for this opportunity."
Hea-Jung asked him only to help out Joon-won a little. But this was a big deal, as she knew the movie he was talking about. It was the new 20 million budget movie he was a producer of. As a producer, he has some power, and now he is using that power to give Joon-won an audition. She heard there were multiple A-list actors in the movie and the company was going big with it.
Joon-won was also shocked. He didn't expect the man in front of him to take another step for him and give out such an offer to him. He wanted to act in movies and as a man who had decades of experience on stage; he was confident. As he heard from Hea-Jung's sudden exclamation, it was not a small movie too.
Even though he was in the world only for a week, he knew the value of 20 million meant in the movie industry. It was rather a big film and getting to act in it would be a great opportunity for himself. He turned towards the man responsible for all these shocks to see him with a smile on his face, still looking at him.

"What? Shocked? I'm one of the main producers of that movie, so I can suggest an actor or two. Now if I met you 2 months ago, I could have gotten you a role but now all the roles are taken including the small ones, except one. Don't think you will get that role because your competition is an A-listed actor. We are holding the role because he is too demanding. So, do you want to try?"
Joon-won was excited about this sudden chance and took a deep breath before nodding. Do Hwan laughed and said, "Don't be too nervous. I don't expect you to beat the A-listed actor, only giving you a chance to see for yourself that you are not yet completely ready for the big screen. So, well this is the end of this discussion, took a lot of changes from what I originally expected. Let's go for some lunch. I don't think you guys had lunch yet, right?" He stood up and straightened his dress before asking everyone in the room.
"Vice-dean, do you want to go and have lunch with us?" He turned towards the old vice-dean.
"No, but thank you for asking, Mr. Hwan. I have to still go back and grade the student's performances as we promised to reveal the scores in only a few hours. You four can continue." Standing up he shook his hands with Do Hwan.
Joon-won wanted to refuse and was about to speak up, but Hea-Jung was faster as she grabbed his arm and whispered, "Do not be hasty to reject little brother. This is your opportunity to know more about the industry from my uncle. So be quiet." And Joon-won looked at Jung-hwa beside him, making sure she was ok with this before nodding.

"Well, shall we get going?" Do Hwan asked and all of them made their way out of the room.
Just as Joon-won stepped out of the room, he heard a sound in his head that stopped him in his tracks.
*Ding*
[System, finally activated. Pre-conditions for activation achieved. The Guidance system is ready to guide the host to his stardom.]
"What?" Joon-won spoke out loud as he looked around. Jung-hwa and Hea-Jung, who were ahead of him, turned around, feeling confused.
[I suggest the host to not look around like a fool. No one can hear me and we can converse more when you are free. So go ahead and enjoy this lunch.]
Joon-won was completely confused as he followed her suggestion and just continued walking with a confused face.
"What happened, little brother? Are you feeling sick?" Hea-Jung asked as she followed him through the auditorium towards the exit.
He shook his head and replied, "No. I'm alright. Nothing to worry about, let's go and have this lunch, I have some important stuff to do after this lunch."
'Hey, who are you? Why can only I hear you? Is this some black magic? I thought there was no black magic? Hey, can you hear me? Respond. Damn it.' he thought to himself, hoping the so-called 'Guidance System' could hear him. But no one responded, and he just continued with the three people out of the auditorium.
"Well then, both of you can come in Hea-Jung's car while I'll come on my own. Hea-Jung, let's go to the Royal Blue. I'm sure your father has a few seats open for us to eat there." Do Hwan said before turning around and walking towards another exit.
"Wait? Did he just say Royal Blue? But isn't that an exclusive-only restaurant and if normal people wanted to dine there, there is a reservation line for months away? Why does your father get to have a few seats there?" Jung-hwa's shock and curiosity overcame her inferior personality, and she asked Hea-Jung.
"Wow, you really are opening up now. That's nice. But yeah, it's mostly an exclusive-only restaurant. But not for the owner's daughter. My dad owns that one." Feeling proud.
"But I thought your family owns only a supermarket chain?" Joon-won intervened.

Sometimes, the expectation to not disappoint just gets to you. Sometimes, life just gets to you. And it brought Cilen to his knees, lamenting, cursing, questioning, "why?" "Why did his parents pass away as they did, forcing him to fend for his own?" "Why wasn't he born in a rich household, with a silver spoon in his mouth that catered to his every need?"
