Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 83

San Min nodded and said, "What he said is true. Why are you trying to act so smug in front of the junior? You tried to do the same thing to even me and Do Hwan when we first met you and almost fell for it." exposing his lies completely wide open.
Kar Jung looked at her with a shocked expression and stuttered out, "How can you do this to your senior? You are completely shaming me in front of him. Now where will I get the respect I deserve from him?" acting all heartbroken.
San Min ignored him and looked back at Joon-won who had an expressionless face and said, "Right, if you hadn't figured it out, Me, Do Hwan and this old Man are friends from a long time. I and Do Hwan were classmates and close and we both met this scammer when I was still setting up my drama house. Ignore Kar Jung's kind smile and all that he puts up in front of everyone, he is a scammer and will take advantage of you."
Kar Jung looked like he lost his soul as San Min continued to rat him out and could only slowly mutter, 'How can you do this to me, San Min? You just told him we were friends and now you are completely ratting me out. How can I be a scammer? Making friends with me and believing me is the single best investment to your drama house since you started it. Now you are calling the same investment a scammer. I am the best actor you got."
"I got an actor who didn't want to pursue a career in movies and ended up coming back to the place he made a name for himself."
"Now, don't bring that up. You know I hated those movie sets and the only reason I even acted after my first movie experience in other movies was because of you and Do Hwan. both of you used our friendship to threaten me into acting in those movies. How could you threaten a friend?" Kar Jung continued to mumble.
Joon-won, who was in the backseat wished he had a tub of popcorn in his hand to watch the live drama happening before his eyes. Both of them were like little kids in his eyes, bickering over small things. It almost made him laugh, but he didn't want to be too disrespectful.

"We had no choice but to threaten you as friends. That route was the best for your career. With your acting skills, you could have made it big, at least as big as an A-listed actor. If we weren't your friends, we would have not even tried to get you into movies." She sneered back at him. It really upset her at that time. Both she and Do Hwan knew Kar Jung could have made it big after seeing him. Kar Jung received a ton of offers in big roles in big movies, but he didn't want to act in them.
"Alright, that's all in the past now. Aren't I still here to help you out in the drama and even accepted helping this poor kid out. So don't hold everything against me." he pointed at Joon-won in the backseat and tried to compromise.
"Yeah, you better help out after all the trouble me and Do Hwan went through." She huffed and turned back to apologize.
"I'm sorry to make you see both of us like this, Joon-won."
Joon-won waved his hands and said, "No, No. It's alright. It was fun to watch. Almost like a live drama." not holding back at the two of them. Hearing his words made her face go a little pink, and Kar Jung coughed.
He looked at Joon-won through the reflection of the mirror and said, "You really don't hold back your punches, kid." making Joon-won shrug. San Min turned back and coughed before starting a new conversation.
"Well as you just heard him, the three of us, including Do Hwan, me, and Kar Jung, decided to make a huge investment in your future after seeing your potential. Of course, this investment is only for these two months where it's your chance to prove to us that you are still capable of overcoming those problems Kar Jung helped you discover and become a complete actor."
Joon-won nodded hearing her. He felt a little relieved hearing that the three of them decided to invest in him a little. Even with all his skills, he still needs some support from well-known people to get a good start to his career in the new world, especially given the problems he was facing. He was confident, but not foolish, to think he could do everything in the new world where he had no power.

He grinned a little and answered both of them. "Don't worry. Just wait 2 months and you will know that this is the best decision you made in all three of your entire life. I'll make it big."
Kar Jung nodded and said, "Well, let's hope you do so, kid. I don't want to see you like many other theatre actors out there, stuck in one place and not able to move ahead even after trying their very best for many years. That's the most depressing thing that could happen to an actor. Not able to make the next big leap. Mine was out of choice and something I don't regret."
San Min smacked the back of Kar Jung and replied, "Yeah, you are the last person to talk about leaps and choices. Do not get me started with your stupid choice. Remember Joon-won never stop trying to progress, such a choice shouldn't exist in your dictionary. As an actor, you should be greedy and go after everything in your sight. If you don't this loser is the best example." pointing at Kar Jung.
"Hey, do not diss me like that again." Kar Jung could only retort but that was ignored by both of them.
"Well anyway, just use these two months to overcome those small problems so you can make a huge debut." San Min said to him.
Joon-won nodded and kept her words in mind. He knew those words are real because he was a very greedy person. In the past, to achieve the small goal of acting in front of the royal family and all the nobles, he went after every chance for his drama group and was finally able to reach his goal. Actors should be greedy to succeed. That was true.
The car came to a stop in front of a luxurious restaurant. Joon-won could see a few people from the drama house stop when they saw the car and San Min. Kar Jung asked both of them to get out and handed the car keys to a worker for parking. Joon-won looked around and noticed there were only 3 blocks away from the drama house but the amount of traffic during a Sunday night made it almost impossible for them to arrive quicker.
The car took so much time that he even noticed his group was only a block away from him, and so he decided to wait. Both San Min and Kar Jung made their way inside the restaurant and then the rest of the people continued inside.
It didn't take long for Gim Tae and the other 3 to notice him. Gim Tae came close to him and asked, "So? What was the car ride like? Is it true that both of them are a thing?" as soon as he completed the second sentence he grimaced in pain and looked at Pak Shin who was glaring at him.
"Gim Tae, you should shut your mouth. Do not talk nonsense like that about our boss and the senior Kar Jung."
Joon-won nodded and said, "Yeah, both of them are just friends. Kar Jung has been acting at the drama house almost since its beginning and is an important piece in how it managed to become successful. Both of them will probably rip your skin off if they heard you."
Gim Tae shuddered when he heard those words and said before looking around, "Alright, I was at wrong here. Just do not tell anyone that I asked you about this. I like my current job and life very much."
The rest laughed at Do Ryung slung his arm around Joon-won and asked, "So? What did you talk about with those two bigshots?"
Joon-won shook his head and said, "Nothing much, really. They asked about how time in the drama house was and if I liked today's performance. They just wanted to tell me they believe I will solve my acting problems soon. Nothing else."
Seok Yun gasped and said, "Your acting skills must be really good for both of them to get involved." Joon-won just smiled a little in response.
Pak Shin clapped his hands and said, "Alright guys, let's get going inside. If we continue like this, we will have no seats." Everyone nodded and hurried to the end of the line.

Remaining in current world…” _____________________________________________________________________ A/N: Ok, so for those wondering about my other fiction, it's still alive. I plan on continuing it, and I plan on posting the next chapter for it about on or after Christmas. The reason for it was because all of my plans, layout, even outline, as well as some chapters I was suppose to release were deleted thanks to a mishap by my classmate. That really triggered me so I got unmotivated, but I plan on continuing it so don't worry. Also, I plan on writing this new series, much more because there is no more classes (CHRISTMAS BREAK HERE I COME!!!), sadly, I still have to take a removal exam because I failed one of my subjects (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!) Well anyway, that's enough for me, enjoy!

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
