After the encounter with that woman, Jin returned to the hotel.
His original n of taking an advance and then staying at this hotel for a long period has been trashed.
Jin used the facilities the hotel provided for onest time and by evening shifted to a three-star hotel not far from there.
The facilities couldn''t bepared with a 5-star hotel but Jin''s mind soon adapted to it. He had spent the majority of his life in slums, even a neatly maintained single room with only a bed could be considered a luxury whenpared to that time.
He had booked the room for a month so Jin opened his trolley bag and started arranging the little clothes he possessed in the cupboard.
It took some time and after everything was at its designated spot Jin finally decided to rest for the day.
The next day in Tyler''s office.
"Good morning Mr. Jin, I''m Dn Pierce, and I''m going to be your Talent manager," Hank introduced himself.
"Good morning," Jin whispered back as he observed Dn. He was a good-looking man who seemed to be in histe twenties or early thirties. He wasn''t very muscr but could be called fit for his age.
"Dn has been a talent manager for five years and has enough experience to help you in this industry. So just trust him and do what he says," Tyler said to Jin.
"Alright," Jin replied. Tyler then briefed Jin on a few things and told him that if there were any important issues he could give him a call but as for the rest he could depend on Dn.
With that said Jin left Tyler''s office along with Dn.
"There''s a cafeteria not far from here, let''s go and discuss what all we need to do there, shall we?" Dn asks.
"No problem," Jin nods and the two soon make their way outside and then to the other side of the street where there was a cafeteria.
After making their order they sat down and began their talk.
"So Mr. Jin, I saw your recording yesterday and it was fantastic if I''m being honest however, The Team director told me that youck confidence in your skills therefore here''s what we''re going to do," Dn took out a a file from his office bag and passes it to Jin.
Jin takes the file and opens it up. Dn starts with his exnation the next moment.
"From your audition yesterday, you might have gained some confidence over acting like a viin or antihero-like character but that would still not be enough. So during the following weeks, we''ll be practising several scripts where you''ll be acting as a viin while performing these scripts, I call it CBM, ''Confidence Building Measures'', what do you think?"
"That sounds pretty good to me, so it means that I''ll only be doing viin roles in my future projects?" Jin asks. It wasn''t that he disliked being a viin but he felt that it would soon be way too monotonous for him.
"It''s easy to get disheartened as a newbie if you realize that you''re not good at acting in a particr role. Luckily you already know that you''re good in a particr role. Using that as a base will build up your confidence in acting.
When your confidence has been built to a particr level then we''ll start doing different roles. At that time, those minor setbacks won''t affect you very much."
"You''ve thought this out pretty well," Jin says in surprise. He had not thought that far ahead.
"That''s my job Mr. Jin." Dn smiles.
"Also, what''s your age? Can you not refer to me as mister? It feels weird being called that from you since you''re older than me." Jin said.
"Haha, that''s how it is in the corporate world," Dn chuckles and continues, "but since that''s what you want then I''ll do that. Oh, and I''m 27 this year,"n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Yeah, I''ll appreciate it if you just call me Jin," Jin replies.
"Got it, so go over the detailed scripts in those files while we are here. if you got any doubts or problems rted to them then don''t shy away from asking," Dn said.
Jin nods and goes over the file in his hand. First, it was a backstory of the character and the scene which was followed by the dialogues he needed to learn by heart.
While Jin was going over the first page and underlined things he didn''t quite understand with a pen.
Their order soon arrived. Dn grabbed his coffee and took a sip and Jin did the same before going back to the reading.
When he was done with the first page Jin started asking all the doubts he had as he passed that page to Dn.
Dn raised his eyes in surprise when he saw that almost half the page had been underlined by Jin. Upon hearing the doubts that Jin raised he was even more bbergasted.
Most of Jin''s doubts were rted to what a particr word meant or what a particr sentence meant. If the sentences and words were hard then Dn would have understood but they were basic sentences that any high school graduate would be able to understand.
"Umm…Jin, I''m sorry if my question offends you but I still have to ask. What were your grades in English when you passed high school?" Dn asks while trying to make his words sound as pleasant as possible.
"I didn''t," Jin replied.
"Huh? You didn''t? What do you mean?" Dn asks in confusion.
"I didn''t graduate high school, I left school when I was in 5th grade," Jin says.
"W-what?...t-then how were you able to act on yesterday''s audition? I clearly remember that recording." Dn couldn''t help but ask. He felt that he was about to have a headache.
"Oh, that? The script was quite simple and easy to read. Compared to that, this one looks way tooplicated." Jin exins without an ounce of shame. He was bad at English and he knew it. What was there to be ashamed of?
Dn couldn''t help but sigh in exasperation when he heard Jin. The scene Jin did yesterday indeed didn''t have any difficult words and sentences.
''Looks like I''m going to have a difficult time with this one…'' Dn thought.
However, he was someone who believed in action. Worrying about things won''t solve anything.
"Finish the coffee quickly, we have to go somewhere," Dn said as he took back his file and kept it back in his bag.
"Where are we going though?" Jin asked curiously.
"Bookstore," Dn replied with a grim expression.
