The Golden Bell Awards [I]

The popularity of the movie "Only You" remained high, which was fully reflected both on the Internet and in cinemas. There were endless posts about Only You on major websites.

Many movie viewers had been digging up some small details over and over again.

Finally, only one conclusion was drawn by them:

Sang Young was in pursuit of perfection. Although it was not completely flawless, overall, he had tried his best to achieve perfection.

The box office of this movie did not start high and end low like Han Suk's movie. Instead, it continued to rise in fame and popularity.

On the third day, it had reached 600 million.

Day 5: 1.1 billion!

Finally, after much anticipation from the people, the first week box office results came out.

1.58 billion!

This data not only set the highest box office record for Young romance films in the history of Korean movies. The most eye-catching thing was that the box office in the first week had already exceeded Han Suk's entire box office revenue.

As soon as the result came out, it became a hot topic in the late hours of that night. In fact, everyone had no objection to this result.

As soon as the movie premiered, and a lot of people had seen it, there were many predictions about the box office of this movie on the Internet. And now, they felt vindicated.

So, people were now talking about the stake between the two directors.

This result did not need anyone to judge it, it was obvious at a glance that Han Suk had lost, completely. Therefore, countless observers had called on Han Suk online to fulfill his wager.

"Han Suk, don't pretend to be dead!"

"Han Suk, if you are a man, just come out and say something."

"Are you planning to quit the entertainment industry and run away, Han Suk?"

Han Suk had not appeared in public since the release of the movie "Only You". He had also disappeared from the Internet. Because since the release of "Only You", he had a premonition that he was bound to lose.

Just like what people were saying, he ran away a long time ago. This wager was humiliating for him. These days could be said to be the darkest days in his life.

As soon as he turned on his phone, countless people began calling him. Some of them really cared about him, but most of them just wanted to laugh at him.

As soon as he went on the Internet, he saw people's bad words to him, asking him to fulfill his wager. He also wanted to fulfill the stake, but it was really difficult for him to do.

***,

Atlas's period of rest was almost over. In the past few days, he had started to accept interviews from the media. However, whenever he was interviewed, he could not avoid being asked about the wager.

The most important thing was that the other person in this matter was completely pretending to be dead. So everyone could only come to him to get the latest news regarding the wager.

"Sang Young, do you think Han Suk will fulfill this wager's condition?"

"Sang Young, has Han Suk been in touch with you during this period?"

"Sang Young, will you and Han Suk be on the same stage for the Golden Bell Award?"

Atlas did not want to respond too much to these questions. "I'm very much looking forward to meeting Mr. Han, and I hope everyone will pay more attention to the film itself."

After the interview, the matter began to be discussed again online. After all, this wager had attracted everyone's attention since the beginning. Otherwise, Han Suk's movie wouldn't have brought so much spontaneous publicity.

The box office revenue, which had already begun to decline, increased again because of this incident.

"These media are so gossipy. I feel like they are not really interested in movies, but in talents." Atlas complained to Chang Mi-Sun.

"Because the movie had been viewed by most people, what's left is the wager between the two of you. As you know, this wager was beneficial to you from beginning to end. It had a spontaneous publicity effect, so the box office of your movie went up too. The most important thing is that when your interview came out, everyone thought you were quite generous regarding how you answered when asked about the wager, and it increased your popularity."

"According to what you said, I made the right decision." After listening to Chang Mi-Sun's analysis, Atlas felt that it made sense. "Let me ask you a question, and I want you to be honest with me. Did you think I would lose or not?"

"Do you still remember the three strategies I analyzed for you before?"

Atlas nodded. Of course he remembered that it was because of what Chang Mi-Sun said that he began to look at her with great admiration.

"So for me, I didn't need to know if you were going to lose or win, but that no matter whether the final result is your win or loss, we can control the situation we have in our own hands."

Atlas smiled. This Chang Mi-Sun was indeed worthy of being Madam Chang's daughter.

"Look at this." Chang Mi-Sun handed the phone to Atlas with a playful smile.

Atlas took the phone and saw that it was Han Suk, who had disappeared for a long time, who posted a message on his Wave account.

"Thank you all for your concern. Congratulations to Sang Young for winning the wager. I will fulfill my promise!"

After reading it, Atlas handed the phone to Chang Mi-Sun. He didn't care at all whether Han Suk would fulfill the wager. He had achieved what he wanted. He didn't want to waste his time on these unnecessary things.

May 28th, the much-anticipated Golden Bell Awards ceremony had finally begun.

Backstage at the award ceremony, Sin Yoon, wearing a black tube-top dress, hastened past the people around her, looking for something in anxiety.

Suddenly, her frown relaxed and she smiled. She patted the person whose back was facing her. "Mr. Sang, you're here early."

Atlas turned around and saw that it was Sin Yoon. "Hello, Miss Sin. Yeah, it's a bit early."

"Are you alone?"

"I guess so."

"Well, it just so happens that I don't have a male companion either, why don't we walk the carpet together?"

Atlas nodded. The theme song of the movie "Only You" was originally sung by Sin Yoon. So, it would make sense if they walked the red carpet together.

Sin Yoon took the initiative to turn sideways and put his arm around Atlas.

Creation is hard, cheer me up!

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
