Genius Archer Streaming Season 1 Episode 24
9. Recruiting an editor (2)
[First release in 5 minutes!]
A notice appeared on Almond fan Seo Ji-ah’s channel.
First published.
When the video was first opened, it had a feature that allowed you to watch it in real time with chat.
-Ohhhh lol
-How could you not come in after seeing this title? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Really lol
Perhaps because of the provocative title, a considerable number of people, 3,000 people, gathered before the video was even released.
[Almond, the archer who single-handedly robs the castle]
It was a title created with people who don’t necessarily play Kingdom in mind.
Since AllTube is a much more popular platform than Trivi, viewers who do not play games also had to be taken into consideration.
– Let’s begin!
-5, 4, 3… … .
-Sssssssssssssssssssss! Do it!
-Key!
-The visual beauty is amazing today too.
The video started with a solemn background sound.
However, the sound was not as grand as last time. It was quiet music, but it created a strange sense of tension.
It was a perfect choice for today’s mission to raid the castle.
The background music was great, but the visual direction was also amazing. For example, in the scene where Almond kills two soldiers at the same time, the screen splits in two.
When you successfully hit a headshot three times in a row and start shooting at high speed, the screen progresses slowly and then suddenly moves forward at high speed, etc.
With a bit of MSG added to the originally amazing performance, it was almost like a blockbuster action movie.
-It has become clear.
-I still can’t believe the last one even after seeing it with my own eyes.
-Ah, I couldn’t watch the live broadcast yesterday, so it’s nice to be able to watch it through this.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is so cool!
-If you were Almond, I would accept it even if you put an apple on my head and shoot me… … .
-hello. My name is Kim Joo-hyuk and I am the manager of streamer Almond. We watched Seo Ji-ah’s video… … .
The comment response was absolutely explosive.
In an instant, over 100 comments came rushing in… … .
#Game category real-time rising 78th place
The video in question has the hashtag above. It’s like a tag that’s only attached to trending videos on the platform.
Once this is attached, the number of views will increase even more explosively from that moment on.
The trend was such that it would reach 200,000 total views within 24 hours.
This is an unusual phenomenon for a game video, especially one that deals with Kingdom.

“There are so many.”
Sang-Hyeon comes out dragging huge trash bags with his right hand in his pocket.
This morning it was time to take out the trash.
“ha.”
Anyway, it’s good that I came out with a tired body.
As I look at the stairs stretching out beneath my feet, I can’t help but sigh.
However, it is a staircase that we climb up and down every day anyway.
It’s only difficult for a moment.
It takes no time to get used to it.
He took a step forward, repeating the words he had always engraved in his mind as a proverb during his days as a player.
My balance was not good as I was only holding the envelope with my left hand, but I was still able to walk. He was glad that it wasn’t so cold that it was icy yet.
I was going down slowly like that.
thud.
Suddenly, my shoulder collides with the door that opens from the side.
“uh… … ? sorry.”
A woman’s voice is heard, seemingly panicked.
If you live in this neighborhood, in Hugye, it’s not that surprising. Houses right next to stairs sometimes have doors designed to hit people passing by.
“Oh, it’s okay.”
Sang-hyeon, who had stumbled, turned around again.
“omg!”
The woman covered her mouth and took a step back.
Sanghyun was also momentarily taken aback by that sight.
‘what?’
But nothing much is said after that.
“… … “Are you okay?”
“… … .”
The woman didn’t say anything and just stared at Sang-Hyeon.
“then.”
Sang-Hyeon nodded and went back down the stairs.

“Whoa.”
After barely 20 minutes of reaching the trash can, he let out an annoyed sigh and threw the trash out.
Cooung.
‘This is it.’
It was a moment where all the hard work was worth it. There was a strange sense of pleasure when I saw the giant trash bag fly away and land perfectly.
‘one more……!’
thud!
By the time I had thrown all the trash bags away and turned around.
“hey!”
Someone called out to him, panting for breath.
Judging by the gesture, it was clear that she was calling him.
‘That woman from earlier?’
Sanghyeon found out that the woman who jumped down was the woman he had bumped into earlier.
‘what? ‘Did I spill something?’
Did he come after me because I dropped my wallet? … I thought to myself.
“I…….”
The woman speaks in a panting voice.
“Can I have your autograph… …”
At the unexpected remark, Sanghyun became momentarily wary and took a step back.
‘Who is it?’
His eyes scanned the woman.
A khaki jacket so loose you’d think it might be for a man, a black hat that covers most of his head, and a slender physique.
There weren’t many suspicious corners. Except for the fact that I wore my hat tightly pressed down.
“What is the cause of death?”
“Haa, haa… … . Yes.”
The woman held out her note, clutching her chest as if her heart was aching from running too much.
“Sign for me.”
How on earth did you jump down in such a hurry?
Only then did Sang-Hyeon accept this unfamiliar situation.
‘Ah, you’re a fan.’
This woman is a fan of almonds.
“… … Did you know that I am an almond?”
Black Hat nods silently.
“I see.”
It was quite a pleasant surprise. I’m not that famous, but I met such a fan near my house.
‘But it’s a bit close to home… … .’
Of course, it was burdensome because his home address was practically revealed, but Sang-hyun, who had not yet experienced the side effects of being famous, was more than happy.
Besides, what could a young girl like this do?
“All right. what’s your name?”
“Jia. It’s Seo Ji-ah.”
Sanghyun’s hand, which was drawing a line in the notebook, stopped.
* * *
After a while.
A cafe at Hugye Station.
Joo-hyuk opened the door and rushed in, wearing a suit.
“Oh. You’re here.”
Sanghyun, leaning against the high bar table with one hand in his pocket, gave a cursory greeting.
“… … ?”
Joo Hyuk was embarrassed.
Because the place where Sanghyeon was located was too small to talk about contracts.
“Oh, there are no seats so I sat here for now. There are a lot of people because it’s the weekend.”
“… … hello.”
A small woman greeting from behind Sang-Hyeon.
Joo Hyuk looked at her and his expression widened.
“hello! Seo Ji-ah?”
“… … yes.”
Sang-hyeon found Seo Ji-ah and immediately called Joo-hyuk. Her bravery dragged her to her cafe and waited for her.
‘If you were a little uglier, you would have been in the police station.’
‘whatever. ‘I’m not ugly.’
‘die.’
The two whispered good wishes into each other’s ears and sat down next to Jia.
“My name is Kim Joo-hyuk. I have been looking for Seo Ji-ah.”
haha.
Joo Hyuk held out his business card with a sad smile.
“ah… … .”
Seo Ji-ah didn’t seem to be the type to talk much. She nodded and took the business card with both hands, but didn’t react at all.
Nevertheless, Joohyuk led the conversation well.
“ah… … So, you originally work in video?”
“yes… … . That was my major, and it also suited my hobbies… … .”
“Wow, it’s amazing that you work in video and also make videos as a hobby.”
“Yes, well… … .”
Seo Ji-ah was so quiet that it was hard to imagine how she could have thought to run to Sang-hyun and get his autograph.
Of course, Joo-hyuk pushed the story further as if that didn’t matter at all.
“If you are interested in working with us… … .”
Chop rock.
He took the contract out of his briefcase. When on earth did he prepare it? It was amazing how quickly it was done.
“I just want you to think about it.”
“… … .”
Seo Ji-ah seemed a little embarrassed.
Joo Hyuk did not miss the opportunity.
“In fact, did you know that the video you are uploading now has a problem in terms of monetization?”
“……yes?”
Seo Ji-ah is surprised to hear that there is a problem with her video.
“what… … .”
“It’s like a legal issue. Copyright, portrait rights, etc… … .”
“ah.”
Joo-hyuk’s argument was this.
Anyway, Seo Ji-ah’s channel, which is a fan channel, cannot generate revenue.
The reason we can make money now is because we tolerate it.
So, in order to operate properly, you will have to sign a contract with us anyway.
When the topic of money came up, Seo Ji-ah’s gaze also changed.
“… … I gave you a donation.”
The words were spoken in a slightly sulky tone.
Not only did they make a profit, they also gave away more than that in donations.
From her perspective, Joo-hyuk’s words could have been disappointing.
“The money hasn’t even come in yet… … As you know, those videos aren’t for profit.”
“Yes, I know. I would like to suggest that you make videos while also generating revenue.”
“… … .”
Silent Serjia.
Joohyuk realized it at this point.
‘Money isn’t really the goal.’
Seo Ji-ah, a loyal fan who doesn’t hesitate to send a large amount of money to Sang-hyun.
Honestly, Joo-hyuk thought she was the daughter of a rich family. However, considering her current behavior and where she lives, no matter how positively he thought about it, she was not in a financially comfortable situation.
But the fact that I sponsored it… means that I really enjoyed watching the streamer Almond more than the money.
It was a mad movie made purely out of fandom.
Joohyuk had to reorganize his vocabulary. It’s not money that moves this woman.
then… … .
“Almond needs Editor Sergia’s help.”
“… … !”
“You can make the video however you want. Currently, the two of us are just kicking the can and need to make a profit somehow. “I really need your help, Seo Ji-ah.”
“help…….”
Seo Ji-ah’s eyes turn to Sang-hyeon next to her.
Sang-Hyeon also had quite a desperate look in his eyes.
‘Does Almond really need me?’
Almond needs editor Sergia. That was a pretty nice thing to hear.
Because the opponent is almond… …?
well.
Perhaps it’s because I can’t even remember where or when I heard something like that.
Someone said they needed my help.
“… … There is one problem though.”
Seo Ji-ah picked up the contract. It means that she has the intention to look at it carefully.
“We will solve any problem!”
Joo Hyuk shouted in a voice full of spirit. People in the cafe turned to look at him, but he didn’t seem to care at all.
“The company I work for does not allow dual contracts. That’s natural. Making money by simply uploading videos as a hobby is different from signing a contract as an official editor.”
Seo Ji-ah was in a situation where she had to make a choice.
Should I quit my current job and do this job, or just keep working at the company?
“I also need money to live. Besides, the pay my company is giving me right now is not bad. Of course, I could make money through videos, but that would be too much of a risk for me.”
Sanghyeon also paused here.
‘This is a situation where I have to pay on a monthly basis.’
He is not a corporation.
Currently, it has been less than a week since I started streaming.
Not only did I not pay the editor’s salary, I couldn’t even buy a drink for that passionate manager who was shouting desperately in front of me right now.
‘… … The moment when you want to say, ‘Let’s think about this some more.’
Joohyuk’s expression seemed to burn with confidence.
‘what?’
Why am I burning with confidence at this point? It’s not the time for it at all.
Joo-hyuk’s sharp rimless glasses flashed, and he confidently held out something as if he had been waiting.
chuck!
“… … This just so happened to arrive in my email.”
It was an offer to be an exclusive advertising model from Kingdom’s distribution company, ‘Punk’.
“Punk suggested partner streamers. It even has ‘editor hiring costs’ written in the support section.”
Ta-da.
The sound effect spread like an auditory hallucination in Sanghyeon’s ears.
‘Is this true?’
A huge distribution company called Punk applied to become a partner… … . For Sanghyun, these were unbelievable words.
Seo Ji-ah must have felt the same way, so she quietly looked at the email.
It seemed like he was checking something for a moment… … .
“It’s okay.”
I readily accepted.
