Big Life-Chapter 53
Chapter 53
Chapter 53 – Follow Me If You Can
“Phew… . !”
It was Friday afternoon, one week later .
Dongmi was drinking coffee . She went out on vandera to calm herself .
The Breathe’s paid chapters were up today .
“I’m not gonna look . I’ll check tomorrow . ”
Dongmi muttered and tried to calm herself .
1-25 was free then from 26-100, it was going to be 10 cents per chapter .
It was the first day so she updated 5 chapters .
It was now 37 chapters and the book was now up to the market .
“Ahah is there nothing to do? I finished cleaning . I ate . ”
Dongmi started to look for things to do . But there was nothing .
So she turned on the TV and started to watch a hero movie from Hollywood .
“Not funny…”
The movie wasn’t fun for her . Usually it would be but not now . She turned off the TV and sat at the computer . She was just about to kill time .
“Ohew, only an hour passed?”
Donmi sighed as she looked at the time . The time went by very slowly .
“AH no . It’s not gonna not go up if I look at it . ”
She couldn’t wait anymore
She opened up the page where the Breathe was showing up .
And she opened her eyes .
“How… . !”
Dongmi put her hands to her mouth . Her two eyes were holding the page in surprised eyes .
“One hour… 3000?!”
All of them were over 3000 already . The chapters that were free and became paid were over 1000 too .
‘This rate… it’s about to be 10,000 in a day!’
10,000 was amazing . Even if the market was better, it was still the market that had many books that stayed in the tens instead of the hundreds in paid numbers .
If money was given to Munpia, there were about 630 dollars of money . It was 5 chapters, so it was about 3150 dollars of money . This was 3:7 with LaughBooks and Jaegun .
“Amazing! This is going to be amazing!”
There were talks about releasing two chapters per day . The increased chapters will lead to increased profit .
Dongmi’s didn’t stop smiling .
‘Is this going to be on the top list soon?’
It seemed very likely .
The best novels were determined by the sales in 24 hours . It took 3000 views in just an hour so there were plenty of chances to be first .
“Ah, Writer Ha . Thank you so much . I’ll make you a feast sometime soon . ”
Dongmi looked at the monitor and muttered to herself . Her husband who had made such a close connection with such a great writer suddenly seemed great .

At the same time
Tewon stopped the car and went out .
It was an old building in front of him . A middle-aged man standing near the entrance came over .
“Long time no see, editor . No, Representative Kwon?”
“Yes, you did well too? President Park?”
The two people shook hands .
This person was the storage’s owner .
It was Tewon’s purpose to visit here .
“Thank you for doing it for 5 cents . I’ll pay this back . ”
5 cents for one book . Tewon was planning to release some paper books along with online .
It was a promotional decision more than a profit . This is due to the paper books and the online books not overlapping .
This was also the case for Jaegun . Jaegun always liked paper books so he rushed . It was nice to see this as such a good price .
Beep!
Tewon’s phone vibrated .
He immediately answered with apologizing to the man .
“Yes, Kwon Tewon . ”
“Hello . This is Team Leader Park Hyojun . ”
“Ah, yes . I didn’t know because it didn’t show the same phone number . ”
“An office change . But… sorry . ”
“Yes? What?”
Tewon’s face was already shaded .
He knew that this couldn’t be good .
“I don’t think we can do the promotion for 3 months anymore . I’m sorry . ”
It didn’t go against his instinct .
Tewon’s hand was already crashing on his forehead .
“Are you listening?”
“Yes, I am . ”
Tewon answered with his hand on his forehand .
Team Leader Park’s sigh could be heard .
There was silence .
No one said anything or asked .
It was obvious . Business did this .
“How is Laugh Books?”
The question broke the silence .
Tewon sighed a while and answered quickly .
“It’s beginning . I can’t tell you if it’s good or not . ”
“But… . ”
Park slurred his words .
Tewon was waiting .
“If you are getting bothered like this, don’t you have a lot of writers so far . Weren’t you starting to promote big?”
Park’s’ question continued .
Tewon bitterly smiled .
“We only have one writer . ”
“One?”
“Yes . ”
“But… . then, what can they achieve . What’s the point?”
“I don’t know . ”
“Ahhh, but this . That person wouldn’t do business like this?”
Tewon sighed to acknowledge that he was listening .
He knew Park was talking about StarBook’s Jeguk .
Another face came up .
But he wasn’t about to share it to Park .
“What were you going to do?”
“Me?”
“Yes, you . You only have one writer . And if they do this… . Carefully, how are you going to make this work?”
“I’ll try . ”
He thought of Jaegun and opened his mind .
“Thank you . I’ll see you soon . ”
“Yes, I get it . Phew . You too . ”
Tewon started to rub his hands .
It was because he wanted to stop himself from smoking .
The temptation of smoking appealed to him .
It was bad .
‘But let’s go work first . ’
Tewon finished the contract quickly .
He left and as he went to the car, a message came through .
-This is Note Team Leader Yu . I don’t think we can do the big banner until February . I’m sorry .
‘Is it the start . ”
He muttered and closed his eyes .
After about 10 minutes passed . A lot of messages came through .
‘This Note, Booking 24, Bookkeeping, Open Culture, Book Sale, Yuto Books… All out . ’
A bitter smile was on his face .
All of them rejected Tewon’s offer for different reasons .
He was expecting this, but the shock was still big .
‘Navin and Cocoa Page is still working…’
Tewon thought .
StarBooks couldn’t touch them .
Those places were completely different from the other smaller companies .
Munpia and Navin Store, and Cocoa page would give him profits . But Tewon couldn’t stop there .
He immediately searched up Yuto Book’s Team Leader’s number . He couldn’t lose Yuto no matter what .
‘Please… please!!!’
The loyalty of Yuto Books was incredible with its stable system and long history .
Yuto was one he couldn’t leave . Jaegun trusted him . Now he had to make him to a bit higher .
Tewon was determined to put the Breathe on the main page .
“Yes, Representative Kwon . ”
The marketing Team Leader took up
It was a tired voice, but he was human too .
The beer that he had gotten from Tewon was over his one month salary .
But Tewon didn’t show anything . He tried to act bright and continued .
“Hello . This is Kwon Tewon . If you’re not busy, would you like to have dinner?”
“Um, really I…”
Tewon answered cheerfully, cutting him off .
“I told you when we met before right? I know a good place . Let’s go there . There will be nothing to worry about . ”
“Hm, yes, I know . But…”
The person didn’t know how to respond .
Tewon definitely knew .
It wasn’t because he was sorry, but because he couldn’t move off the temptation of such a good place .
The opponent was such person . He knew his personality and what bait he would take .
“Don’t worry . We’ve met once or twice . I’m just trying to keep my promise . So just come out . ”
“Then… about 8?”
“Yes, that’s good . I’ll see you soon . ”
Tewon opened the drawer and took some medicine and ate it .
It was going to be another long fight, with drinks going in at every second .
