“hello.”

I carefully answered the phone.

“yes. hello. I’m… ＜Hansimo＞ PD Jeong Han-seong. I still have no choice but to introduce myself like this.”

It was Jeong Han-seong.

“yes. Nice to meet you.”

“ha ha ha. yes.”

Jeong Hanseong laughed.

“hahahaha. is it a bit weird It’s nice to see you.”

I asked with a smile.

“well. My workplace was blown up because I was involved with the ＜What No One Do＞ channel, but I don’t think that channel was the perpetrator.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

I laughed once at that and asked a question.

“By the way, are you still unable to communicate with the manager?”

“that person. Right now, I am chewing on all of our members’ phone calls and text messages.”

Jeonghanseong spat out forcefully.

Listening to his tone, it seemed that he was getting annoyed and was almost at the stage of giving up.

“ah. okay…”

I spoke carefully.

“But if you think of independence anyway, it might be more comfortable for the other person to come out like that. Well, these words won’t comfort you.”

“That’s right… It’s actually the worst situation right now. Even if you try to send the operator out by agreement, there is nothing you can do if you dive like that.”

It was a boring tone.

“yes. But if we negotiate, is there any possibility that the operator will hand over the channel to the production team and leave?”

“under. To be honest, no!”

An answer like a sigh.

It was also as expected. If you look at the human great man called operator, you can roughly draw a picture.

“Then… you should pack it up and come out.”

“yes. Yes. however…”

Jeong Han-sung’s voice darkened.

“yes. If I had 400,000 subscribers anyway, there wouldn’t be many staff who worked for me as a business. If you’re going to be independent, you should do it quickly.”

“It was announced that way, but it is not easy.”

“why.”

“The space and equipment are all owned by him. If it comes out like that, it will take longer than I thought.”

“yes.”

I took a short break, then delivered the business right away.

“In fact, I contacted you because I expected such a situation. I deleted the comments like that and went diving, but I didn’t think they would help me become independent.”

“Ah… what are you talking about?”

“To become independent, space, equipment, and a path to widely publicize that the actual production crew have dug a new channel. You need these two things.”

“yes. It is. However, neither is easy to obtain. That’s why I’m having a headache.”

“Probably, if the operator operated so arbitrarily, the distribution of income would not have been fair.”

“Yes. Even though the channel’s subscribers increased a lot, we received it as a salary. I didn’t even make a lot of money.”

“okay.”

In the end, I ate the income from the channel alone because I was the owner of the channel.

Colleagues suddenly became employees. This is why it is important to clarify ownership and profit distribution in the first place.

“great. Let me offer you an offer. First of all, we have a studio. We can also provide a space for editing.”

“Oh. Really?”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong asked in surprise.

“yes. Anyway, the hottest thing on YouTube right now is the ＜Hansimo＞ channel. Either the good side or the bad side. Then, even if you move, it will be much more advantageous to sell a new channel when people are paying attention like this.”

“…”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Han-seong remained silent for a moment.

And after thinking for a while, he finally opened his mouth.

“that’s right. If you want to move, you have to move as quickly as possible so that you can bring subscribers as much as possible. however.”

“yes.”

“Why are you doing this to us?”

“ah. I’m trying to grow our channel. However, I think it will definitely help to grow if I unite with the people who make news content on the ＜Hansimo＞ channel now.”

“Are you telling us to join the ＜Something No One Does＞ channel?”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Han-sung’s question made him wary.

“no.”

“yes? No?”

“To be more precise, we are trying to create a network that combines multiple channels by expanding rather than growing channels. That way, you can go beyond the limits of the channel.”

“then…”

“yes. You can create and operate a new channel separately from us. Instead, it’s kind of like a partnership with our channel. All you have to do is become part of a multi-channel network built around our channels.”

“… Wait.”

“yes.”

“This may be a sensitive issue, but did you design this work with the intention of occupying our channel from the beginning?”

“ha ha ha.”

I burst out laughing.

“It’s not like that. Coincidentally, a channel uploaded a strange edited version of our video, so we just uploaded our video. Until then, I had only heard of ＜Hansimo＞, but I wasn’t very interested.”

“is it so?”

“yes. If this goes according to my plan, isn’t it too exquisite?”

I asked with a smile.

“ha ha ha. It is.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong also laughed.

“Now, once space and equipment are secured, it’s better to immediately create a new channel and announce it. I guess this is a real race against time. The sooner the better.”

“I guess so.”

“Our channel can help with this. Even if you can’t post on the ＜Hansimo＞ channel right now, you can comment on each video, right? Yes?”

“Yes.”

“And I will post a notice on our channel as well. The actual producers of ＜Hansimo＞ do not give in to the operator’s response to this incident and are creating a new channel, so please subscribe.”

“oh.”

“Our channel is also heading towards 350,000 subscribers right now. And it is a situation that is tied to the algorithm with ＜Hansimo＞ as the keyword of ‘L Group Management Rights War’. It will definitely help with publicity.”

I said slowly.

“I guess so. Besides, if it’s 350,000… Poop. Our channel is below 330,000, so this channel has more subscribers.”

“I have two suggestions above. Space and equipment provided. And the promotion support for moving the channel.”

“How are you going to distribute the profits?”

“hmm…”

Building a network and recruiting a news channel first is not for money.

Because the press channel becomes a weapon in many ways.

So honestly, there are many things I can use besides the money that comes out of that channel.

“First of all, there is something I heard from the professor as a very important lesson. Conflict always arises when the stake or profit distribution is not clear in terms of money. Whether it was with good intentions or bad intentions, a rough calculation will inevitably lead to a fight.”

“huh? Are you the professor?”

“yes. I am still a student.”

“ah. hahahaha.”

“First of all, the really important condition I propose is that you accept the condition of being a member of the network rather than money. We will make this clear when we sign a contract later.”

I said it in the most formal tone possible.

“yes.”

“Then money matters. Since I provide the space and equipment, it is a kind of investment. So, I’ll offer inside that I take a 15 percent stake in the channel and a revenue share.”

“Fifteen percent?”

“yes. Is it too high?”

“no. too…”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong stopped talking.

He was probably trying to say ‘it’s lower than expected?’.

But soon they realized that they might have to negotiate with us.

If that’s the case, there’s no need for you to say to yourself, ‘Your conditions are really good?’

“Anyway, consider 15 percent as my suggestion for now. When you sign the contract, if you also come up with a proposal, we will agree and adjust it.”

“So, the other 85 percent…”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong said.

“Actually, that’s none of my business.”

After saying this, I added:

“Still, if you can’t be rude while talking, I’ll ask.”

“yes.”

“How many crew members are working with that channel right now?”

“There are about six people in total, including reporters, producers, and editors. How many of them will come along remains to be seen.”

“Then you can take it in the direction of dividing it into 6 equal parts at 85 percent. But I don’t think this is something to worry about because I don’t know the circumstances. The role and amount of work will be different, so those 6 people should agree on that.”

“yes. yes. Yes.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeonghanseong agreed.

“And, there is a high possibility that YouTube will become an alternative media, but it is a little ironic that a large channel like ＜Hansimo＞ has a structure in which one owner is holding tight to save money.”

I said.

“ah…”

“If you come out and become independent, it would be nice to have 85 percent and the reporters and editors each share a share. These days, many new media companies go to a system where reporters are shareholders. Wouldn’t that be more in line with the YouTube press?”

“You know very well. As a college student.”

“ah. I’m from the Department of Media Communication. Our department used to be a journalism department, so I still learn a lot about journalism.”

“aha. no wonder. You were a major student.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong became a welcome tone.

“I am from the Department of Journalism and Broadcasting. hahahaha.”

“oh. okay.”

I smiled bitterly.

“great. Then can I have a meeting with our members and then contact you again? Because I’m not going to decide on my own.”

“sure. I think you should do that. I look forward to contacting you.”

I hung up.

“wow. Are you scouting YouTube journalists at all? They are trying to grow the channel in an unexpected way.”

Heeyeon, who was listening to the conversation, asked.

“It’s not Scout… I think it’s a partnership offer.”

“well. They may not be Scouts, since we’re not the kind of people we pay to work for, but…”

Heeyeon tilted her head and said.

“If you make a network and recruit them, isn’t that a scout in a broad sense?”

“I know.”

I scratched my head.

“Will these people accept the offer?”

Bumsu asked with a worried expression.

“Do you think you would accept it if you were like me? conditions are good Honestly, if you give them a 15% share, wouldn’t they think it’s a share they should spend? If you make a space and pay the monthly rent, it will come out more than that?”

Heeyeon said.

“i think so too.”

Heeyeon’s thoughts were exactly my thoughts.

And, it was less than an hour later.

“hello. I am Jeong Han-seong.”

The call came earlier than expected.

“oh. yes.”

“It is unanimous.”

“yes?”

“We unanimously agreed to accept the offer. All 6 of them break out and create a new channel. And, I will be with ＜What No One Does＞.”

“wow.”

“As I said earlier, if you are going to open a new channel, I think it would be better to do it quickly. First of all, I made a channel under the name ＜Jinsimo＞.”

“＜Jinsimo＞?”

“Everything about real Korean current events. This is Simo Jin.”

“ah. hahahaha.”

“I just posted a comment on the ＜Hansimo＞ problem video, but it will be deleted soon. Can you help me promote it?”

“yes. sure!”

“I haven’t signed a contract yet, but I’m sorry for asking.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Jeong Hanseong said.

“no. Because attracting as many subscribers as possible is more profitable than signing a contract quickly.”

I readily answered.

“wow…”

Heeyeon and Beomsu were amazed.

“This is not the time to be like this. It’s a race against time, so let’s move quickly.”

Using the ＜Hansimo＞ channel to publicize the ＜Jinsimo＞ channel is quickly blocked.

Then we have to move when the algorithm is actively hanging.
