Hwang Ji-won, though she had let go of some things, still felt somewhat down. Therefore, Lee Jung-hui took the opportunity to say, "Actually, there are many good movies, not just this one. I have quite a few, even one that is basically the same style as My Sassy Girl..."
Seeing Hwang Ji-won and Son Ye-jin both stunned, he smiled and gave a more detailed description of the plot of My Wife Is a Gangster.
At first, Hwang Ji-won thought he was joking, but after he finished, she realized it was true and immediately became interested, saying, "What about the script? Can I see it first?"
Of course, that was fine. Lee Jung-hui had originally planned to release this as a sister piece to My Sassy Girl. He nodded, bought the script from the system, and then transferred it to his computer.
After transferring it, Lee Jung-hui handed the computer to her and said, "You can take a look first!" Then he returned to the system in his mind.
However, he hadn't mentioned the name of the movie. Given that My Sassy Girl had already been released, when Hwang Ji-won and Son Ye-jin saw the title My Wife Is a Gangster, they couldn't help but think a lot about it.
Hwang Ji-won even spat in her mind and secretly glanced at Lee Jung-hui, who looked like he was pretending to be serious while in the system, and pouted in her heart.
But then she remembered that he wouldn't have a computer to use if he gave them his, so she handed him her computer, "Here, you can use mine for now..."
"Oh!" Lee Jung-hui didn't know what she was thinking, and he took the computer and returned to the system.
Previously, when he entered the system to compensate Hwang Ji-won and bought the script for My Wife Is a Gangster, it reminded him that there were still many good scripts waiting for him in the current game, such as Shilla Moonlight, Gangster vs. Monk, The Head Monk, and The Killer Company in Korea, and The Fast and the Furious, The Princess Diaries, and others in the U.S.
Of course, these were just the ones that would soon be taken by others, so he had to act first. As for the future, there were still many more.
Considering that after receiving nearly 3.1 billion won in dividends from TBE, his total achievement points were only 51, he still had to be patient for now.
However, good times were not far off. Thinking about the fact that he was about to receive the salary for Blue生死恋 (Blue生死恋), which included the script and the supporting role, and most importantly, as long as Blue生死恋 didn't fail, he would complete the system's collapse-level task, which would reward him with 100 achievement points and an emerald-level treasure chest.
Just thinking about it made him a little excited!
Of course, excitement aside, he was very cautious when spending achievement points. In the end, he only bought the scripts for Shilla Moonlight, Gangster vs. Monk, The Head Monk, and The Killer Company in Korea, and only the first part of The Fast and the Furious in the U.S.
First, the scripts in Korea were cheap, only 2 achievement points each. Second, he didn't have a foundation in the U.S. yet, and the system's crisis always loomed over him, making him more cautious.
After selecting and buying them, the next step was to find collaborators, but there was no need to rush. He could wait until Blue生死恋 was broadcast and The Da Vinci Code sold well, and then he would have enough money to act.
After buying them, he stared at the soon-to-be-released Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings series, drooling for a while, and then clenched his teeth, vowing to "definitely snatch them in the future," before exiting the system.
At this time, Son Ye-jin and Hwang Ji-won were engrossed in reading the script, so he didn't disturb them. He took Hwang Ji-won's computer and entered the My Sassy Girl homepage.
Because he often interacted with fans, it was always lively there. Now, the most common topic was about increasing his role in Blue生死恋.
A Chinese exchange student named Shirley said, "You're the writer yourself, why don't you secretly add more for yourself..."
A student named Park Sun-ae from Gyeongnam High School playfully said, "Yeah, yeah, and since you love Eun-hee so much, just take her away and let Jun-hee go to hell!"
Here, everyone's emotions were very direct and sincere, and most were positive. It felt like a home online. Looking at all this, Lee Jung-hui felt very relaxed and happy.
He browsed for a while, then wrote a post, "Blue生死恋 is already finished, so you naughty guys don't talk about increasing my role anymore. Of course, the ending is a secret, don't ask me, I won't tell you... Also, after a few interviews, I'll be going back to the U.S. for a while, it's about the publication of my new book, The Da Vinci Code..."
As soon as he posted, it naturally caused a stir, and there were immediately dozens of replies:
"What's The Da Vinci Code? You wrote another book?"
"Wow, you're so sharp, publishing in the U.S.!"
"The Da Vinci Code, the name sounds amazing, profound and mysterious. What type of book is it? Is it a mystery thriller?"
"..."
Lee Jung-hui read through the replies for a while, then posted again, releasing the first three chapters of The Da Vinci Code in Korean as a treat for the fans.
"Um, The Da Vinci Code is a mystery thriller. Here are the first three chapters, you can take a look..."
It became lively again, and Lee Jung-hui occasionally joined in, not just about The Da Vinci Code, but also chatting with Kim Eun-ju, Lee So-ea, Shirley, and others about various interesting things in life. It really felt like friends and family, especially those he had met and spent time with, making the connection even closer.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Lee Jung-hui's mind, but before he could grasp it, it disappeared.
This made him frustrated, and he scratched his head and even slapped it.
"What's wrong?" Hwang Ji-won, who had just finished a rough read of the script, saw this and was stunned. She patted his shoulder and asked.
Lee Jung-hui ignored her, as he was trying hard to recall the thought that had just flashed through his mind. Intuitively, he felt it was very important.
This made Hwang Ji-won curious, as it was unlike his usual gentlemanly demeanor. She frowned, got up, and looked at him, then at the computer screen, but didn't see anything special. As for The Da Vinci Code, he had mentioned it before, but she hadn't read it.
At this moment, Lee Jung-hui grabbed her hand, stopping her from touching anything on the screen, afraid of missing the inspiration, "Wait, don't move!"
Hwang Ji-won was about to check the first three chapters he had posted, but he stopped her. She wasn't aggressive, but seeing him still frowning and staring at the screen, looking very distressed, she couldn't help but laugh, "What's wrong with you? Are you regretting posting the first three chapters of The Da Vinci Code? It's no big deal..."
Lee Jung-hui gave a helpless smile and shook his head, "No!" He really couldn't remember, so he turned his attention back to the screen and carefully read through it.
Hwang Ji-won rolled her eyes, "What are you thinking or looking for? There's nothing to find here. This is just a place where you interact with your fans, and you know everything here..."
However, before she finished, Lee Jung-hui's eyes suddenly lit up, and he interrupted her, "Wait, wait, what did you just say?" Then, without waiting for Hwang Ji-won to answer, he excitedly called out, "Right, right, what I was thinking was an interactive platform, hahaha, I got it, I'm going to be rich!"
Then, he suddenly cupped Hwang Ji-won's face and kissed her smooth, white forehead...
